Once upon a time there was an Uchiha

Chapter 225 09. Grilled Fish
At night, standing on the roof overlooking the prosperity of the imperial capital at night, after hearing the sound of an explosion in the distance, Uchiha Lihuo jumped off the roof and returned to the temporary residence.

Even though the entire city was under martial law because of the incident caused by the assassins, the killers who attacked at night still killed the evil officials and escaped unscathed.

This is something that cannot be helped. In the world of killing girls, there is a huge gap between ordinary people and Tegushi. Facing the attack of Tegushi, how can those corrupt officials escape?

However, this has nothing to do with Uchiha Lihuo. After all, whether officials are corrupt or not should be a headache for the little emperor.

Speaking of which, the little emperor is still a guest in the mansion, although he is reluctant.

Walking into the temporary residence, the living room was lit by a dim oil lamp, and Uchiha Lihuo lay lazily on the sofa, looking at the little emperor with a grievance on his face.

Under his orders, the little emperor lived a life similar to that of a commoner, complaining dissatisfied with a hard day's work.

After a day's work, blisters appeared on the little emperor's fingers. It is no wonder when the emperor has suffered such fatigue.

Glancing at the little emperor, Uchiha Lihuo said: "You are living a life that ordinary civilians can't enjoy. Under your rule, this country is on the verge of extinction."

Hearing Li Huo's words, the little emperor was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Impossible, the minister once told me that as long as I follow his advice, the rebellion within the empire can be disintegrated in an instant."

As an emperor, although he listened to the minister's slander, the little emperor still had a certain understanding of his country, at least he knew that there were rebels everywhere in the empire.

Taking the tea from Shayou's hand, Li Huo took a sip lightly: "It is precisely because of the presence of ministers that the empire is on the verge of extinction. If not, it can last for decades."

Li Huo wasn't joking, it was precisely because of the minister's behavior of suppressing dissidents that some officials of the empire were pushed to the opposite side and joined the ranks of the revolutionary army.

"The minister is loyal to me." The little emperor said hastily.

Putting down the teacup in his hand, Uchiha Lihuo continued: "Whatever you want, I will take you to the slums of the imperial capital tomorrow to see the real darkness."

The little emperor stared at Li Huo, and said vigilantly: "What exactly do you want to do, and when will you let me go back? I still have to go back to deal with state affairs, otherwise the world will be in chaos."

Uchiha Lihuo said: "Don't worry, someone will take care of it for you."

Hearing this, the little emperor's heart tightened. He had always been worried that his disappearance would bring great chaos to the empire, but now he has disappeared for a long time, and there is no martial law in the imperial capital, which shows that his identity as an empire has been replaced by someone else. .

So their purpose is to control the entire empire?
The little emperor thought of seeing an assassin during the day, and the other party had already dropped him, but why didn't he deal with him?
Looking down at the key on his neck, the little emperor suddenly understood many things, and couldn't help but look deeply at Uchiha Lihuo.

It turned out that he was greedy for [Supreme Teigu].

The outskirts of the imperial capital.

The two of Tazmimain, who had just assassinated the minister's relatives, walked side by side on a remote path.

Judging from their complexion, they are not in good condition. Tatsumi's side is full of bruises, and Ma Yin, who is carrying Tegu [Pumpkin Cannon], is panting heavily.

"Ma Yin, why did you shoot without hesitation just now?"

"Of course it's to deal with the monk from Huangquan Temple. Besides, aren't you okay?"

On the way to the headquarters of the night raid, Tazmi and Ma Yin continued to quarrel, arguing over some trivial matters during the battle, which can be regarded as the psychological pressure from the battle just now.

After running around for several hours, the two came to the night raid headquarters in the mountains.

Looking from a distance, the headquarters of Night Raid was built on the mountain, hiding under the cliff, surrounded by howls of dangerous species, no wonder every time the emperor searched for the whereabouts of members of Night Raid to no avail.

Back at the headquarters, Tatsumi found that a bonfire was lit on the river bed near the headquarters, and a large fish was placed on the grill, emitting an attractive aroma.

"Red pupil." Seeing the grilled fish, Tazmi thought of Chitong, the sword-wielding girl who loves to eat.

Even though he joined Night Raid for only a week, Tatsumi understood the hobbies of his fellow Night Raiders. Although they all share the same job—assassin, they still show a soft side in their spare time.

As the color of the grilled fish gradually turned golden, Chitong couldn't help rubbing his palms together, picked up salt and pepper and sprinkled it on the almost cooked grilled fish.

At this time, Tatsumi, who was waiting quietly, felt a pair of arms resting on his shoulders.

"Brother Brand." Tazmi quickly dodged aside, thinking of Brand's wicked taste, he felt a chill in his heart and his scalp went numb.

"Well, this piece of fish is burnt, what should I do?" Hill, wearing glasses, looked at the grilled fish distributed by Chitong in his hand, and asked in confusion.

"I'll help you." Lubbock walked over with a smile on his face, but was pushed away by Leonai, who swallowed the grilled fish, "No, there's nothing burnt."

"It would be great if we could go on like this forever." Holding his share of grilled fish, looking at the red pupils gnawing on the fish bones, and everyone enjoying themselves happily, Tatsumi suddenly had such thoughts in his heart.

At this moment, Najie Xitan, who was wearing a suit, came over and breathed a sigh of relief looking at the night raiders who were not missing by the campfire.

"It's great that everyone is fine."

"Yes." The Night Raid member sighed with a gloomy expression.

As the killer organization under the Revolutionary Army, the probability of death is not so high. Almost every companion around you may die in every battle.

Before accepting Tatsumi, Night Attack also added several new members, but most of them died in the first battle, and only these Tegushi were able to survive to become the backbone in the end.

Tatsumi also felt the same way. After he entered the empire for the first time, he was deceived twice by Leonai and Alisa. The former only cheated money, while the latter wanted to murder his life.

Because he also understands the cruelty of life.

After eating the grilled fish, Tazmi and Main walked up to Najie Hitan and talked about meeting Lihuo this afternoon and the reward announcement.

After hearing the whole story of the two things clearly, Najie Xitan nodded slightly, but her heart was fluctuating, but she didn't want to be as calm as she appeared on the surface.

Najie Xitan already knew the strength of the young swordsman named Lihuo from the members of the Night Raider, and knew that he was a figure not to be underestimated.

The assassination of the minister this morning was completely beyond Najie Xitan's expectations. He was able to sneak into the royal city and almost kill the minister, and he was able to retreat afterwards. to describe.

You must know that the revolutionary army has long wanted to attack the vicious minister, but due to the guards and Tegu envoys around the minister, there has been no move.

After being silent for a while, Najie Xitan was thinking about whether he could let the killer join the night raid. With the ability of the other party, the work of the night raid would be much easier in the future.
