Ultimate Assassin System

In the morning, the sun is rising and the mist is about to disperse. The unique warm and lazy light of winter pours down over the northern part of this large southern city.

Exquisite manor houses stand in rows at a polite distance so as not to disturb each other. The architectural styles may be different, but the interior decorations are all equally luxurious and tasteful. Large areas of tidy grassland, beautiful sculptures, dreamy creative fountains... Although they are not the aristocratic district of the East City, these manor buildings located in the wealthy merchant areas of the North City are no less shabby than the former, and some are even worse.

This has nothing to do with status, only the charm of money!

Now, in front of one of the luxurious buildings that is bigger than most noble manors, burly guards are pushing open the iron doors left and right, and well-dressed coachmen are driving exquisite carriages, slowly stopping at the front steps. Next... All this indicates that the owner of this manor may go out later.

At this moment, Darling, can you really not accompany me to the appointment?

I'm sorry, Annika, yesterday I made an appointment with the Earl to meet in the morning. And, you know, you are both ladies and you have common topics to talk about together. I was a bit inappropriate in the past.

Explaining gently, a young man and woman walked out of the door side by side. The man's face is slightly delicate, but because of the short beard deliberately grown on his chin, he has a somewhat mature look. The woman wrapped around her arms is tall and elegant, and her beautiful face decorated with delicate light makeup has a hint of coquettishness.

Shaking his arms, But I have already promised Betsy, and aren't you all from Laiyan City? She wants to see you when she comes here this time.

It's just because of business, Annika. The young man raised his hand and stroked the soft hair of his female companion. chuckled. I know her purpose very well. Well, in this case, you can negotiate with her on my behalf and promise the business group to cooperate with her family.

Ah - but, but I don't understand business negotiations at all. What should I do if I lose money? She covered her mouth and whispered softly. After hearing this, the beautiful woman named Annika looked surprised and happy. On the one hand, she was delighted with her male companion. Trust, on the one hand, is not confident in one's own business field.

Haha. Don't worry. This is a long-term cooperation, and you won't lose money. And since we are your good friends, we should take care of her. The young man smiled and helped Annika into the luxury carriage, and the young man comforted her gently.

Okay, thank you for your order. Annika immediately beamed with joy when she heard this. She reached out her white jade neck and took the initiative to kiss the young man's face.

Well, have fun then. After waving his hand, the young man turned around with a smile and was about to wave to the coachman who was standing quietly beside him to close the door and leave. His eyes suddenly focused and he looked forward.

More than ten feet away. A group of dozens of people appeared out of nowhere and scattered in an arc, blocking the middle of the road and striding towards them. However, what caught the young man's attention was not this impolite behavior, but the demeanor and temperament of these dozens of people. The kind of iron-blooded aura that would be revealed as long as they gathered into a group, which can only be possessed by soldiers who have experienced hundreds of battles in the military.

Guys, you seem to be blocking the road. With such a menacing group of men approaching, it was impossible for the guards scattered around not to be able to see them. They quickly stepped forward to meet them and blocked the carriage in front. However, the guard captain may have seen the identity of this group of people, so his attitude was relatively polite.

Oh, I'm sorry, it's because we don't have an appointment. A young man in gorgeous clothes walked out from behind dozens of people blocking the road, with a charming and comfortable smile on his handsome face, shrugging and spreading his hands.

Just by his words and deeds, it can be seen that this young man is obviously completely different from the dozens of people with iron-blooded aura around him. He doesn't look like a member of the army, but looks like an elegant nobleman.

But of course this cannot be the reason why the guards let him pass, not to mention from what the young man said just now, it is obvious that they are coming here. Shaking his head, I'm sorry, my master doesn't see strange visitors.

Really? Why don't you ask? The handsome young man didn't feel depressed at all when he heard this. He looked past the guards and looked at the young man standing in the carriage. He raised his hand and greeted him familiarly, Hello, Allen. First time we meet. , my name is Philip.

Although this is the south, it is far away from the capital, so everyone present naturally does not know the meaning of this name, except for one person... The young man, that is, Allen's expression suddenly became solemn when he heard this, and the pupils in his eyes shrank sharply, but he soon regained consciousness. He relaxed, took a breath, and waved his hands to signal the guards to retreat: Let them come over.

Ha, I knew you must have heard of me. But I guess that guy wouldn't say anything nice about me behind my back, right?

Indeed.

...Believe me, that is slander. He is definitely jealous!

…

Since the handsome young man is Phillip and the young man is Allen, the so-called guy is of course Tang En. Philip and Allen were both friends of Tang En, but they had not known each other before. It was impossible for Tang En to introduce Philip to Allen. He only mentioned such a person to Allen during casual chat. Now that Philip suddenly comes uninvited, the meaning behind this is naturally self-evident...

However, although he knew that he had been exposed, there was no panic on Allen's face. He just frowned and asked, Can I ask, how did you find this place?

Phillip waved his hand casually: Oh, that was just an accident. We found out about Josiah's family here, but after going to Laiyan City, we found nothing. After inquiring, we learned that this family suddenly disappeared out of thin air overnight. ...Actually, you have been very careful. We still don’t know where the family was transferred. But you know, this is the land of Bran after all. And if you want to save people, some intermediate procedures cannot be bypassed. , such as soldiers who were paid a lot of money to open the city gate for you at night.

After all, when a clan moves, there will always be some traces left behind. In the land of Bran, if the Bran Royal Court mobilizes all its forces to search and follow the clues, it will basically be a matter of time to find it.

I understand, thank you. Nodding in thanks, Allen laughed at himself, It seems that gold coins are not omnipotent. You are right. This is indeed the land of Bran. I was careless. It's just that I didn't expect it. What’s surprising is that it’s you who came to find me.”

No, actually I am more surprised. Who would have thought that the president of the famous Yatang Business Group would actually...

Before she finished speaking, she asked, Darling, what's wrong? Who is he? Feeling that the carriage under her had not moved, Annika couldn't help but lift the curtain outside the car window in confusion. She glanced at Phillip first, and then looked at the scattered surroundings that seemed to be surrounding. The dozens of powerful men suddenly asked nervously.

Allen's body tensed up when he heard this, and for the first time his calm expression showed a little panic. He licked his lips, slowly relaxed, and said in a calm tone: It's nothing, I met an old friend I haven't seen for a long time, so I talked more. meeting.

He spread his hands, looked directly at Phillip, his eyes suddenly brightened, and introduced, This is Phillip... Phillip, this is my fiancée Annika, she is going to a date now. Oh, by the way, don't look at her, she is quite beautiful. In fact, you are stupid and don’t know anything. Haha...

Da——ling—— Annika didn't understand the meaning of the double entendre, and she said with dissatisfaction and embarrassment. However, the tension gradually dissipated unconsciously. Since Allen would tease himself like this in front of this stranger, then this must be a very unusual friend...

After a pause, Phillip looked at Allen's increasingly bright eyes, put his arms behind his back and waved, and the big men surrounding him immediately stepped back and made way for them. Then taking a step forward, Phillip raised the corners of his mouth, showing an elegant and charming smile: Oh, beautiful Miss Annika, it is an honor to meet you...

Before he finished speaking, Allen expressionlessly slapped away Philip's arm that was about to kiss his hand, Sorry, it's a reflex. Then he turned to look at Annika who was covering her mouth and smiling softly, her expression turned gentle, Go, it's almost time for your appointment.

Well, see you later, Your Excellency Philip. He nodded politely and lowered the curtains. The luxurious car swayed slowly and drove away slowly.

Tsk, tsk, what a beautiful noble lady. He looked away reluctantly, Phillip smacked his lips, and turned to look at the expressionless Allen, Why?

what why?

You are about to get married, and with your status and financial resources, there is absolutely no need to do such a dangerous thing, right? Or are you also a member of the Gray Army?

No. Allen shook his head and said calmly, I am sir.

Sir? Uh, what do you mean, Dunn?

Allen did not deny: Everything I have now was given by my husband, so it is natural to do things for him.

Including something that might send you to the gallows?

Of course! The decisive reply.

He was stunned, frowned and muttered, I really can't tell that guy has such ability...Okay, let's meet him formally. Taking a step back, Phillip bowed solemnly and said seriously, Philip, Tang En's friend !”

Allen was slightly startled, and bowed in return: Alan, Mr.'s subordinate.

Ha, he won't treat you as a subordinate... But since we all know each other, it shouldn't be a problem for my friend to ask you for help? He put his arm around Allen's shoulders familiarly, and Phillip's serious and solemn expression disappeared instantly, revealing his belt. With a flattering smile, Um, where is Josiah's elder now?

Allen suddenly looked wary after hearing this, while Phillip touched his forehead with a hurt expression on his face, Uh, what's that look on your face? There's no need to be so wary... I'm not here to catch them, okay, I'm just getting to know them. Let’s share our feelings and become familiar with each other...
