Ultimate Assassin System

A while later, it was a deserted tavern on a remote street in Xicheng District.

With a creak, the wooden door opened. The only table of guests in the hall, two people sitting opposite each other and drinking wine turned to look at the door at the same time, with happy expressions on their faces, they pushed their chairs and stood up.

gentlemen!

Haha, good people don't live long, and villains live for a thousand years. I know Wen Silin's little help can't do anything to you!

Hugging, hitting each other on the back. Really? How come I heard that someone is here to pry the wall off this time, and they wish I would die?

Filled with righteous indignation, Is this happening? Damn it, I can't bear it! Which guy is so bold? Don't worry, you don't need to take action this time, I will send someone to deal with him immediately.

Haha, why bother, let me do it myself.

Uh...hehe...you are so funny...

…

Needless to say, these two guys who have no idea what the lower limit is are naturally Tang En and Phillip. After greeting him in an ungrateful way, Tang En turned to look at Allen, who could not hide his excitement. He nodded apologetically: Sorry, I didn't think well this time and got you involved.

Shaking his head, Allen replied solemnly and stubbornly: No, Allen's achievements today are all due to the support of his husband. So it is natural to do things for him.

Tang En couldn't help but pause when he heard the words. He was moved and wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything. He just patted Allen heavily on the shoulder: Sit down first... After this incident, come back to the north with me.

As he sat down, Allen hesitated for a while, then shook his head: Sir, I'm engaged. After the engagement, it was natural to get married. This is a matter involving two families. Allen can be indifferent and go north with Tang En immediately to ensure his personal safety. But Annika cannot do that. Her family roots are in the south, and it also involves rebellion. It is impossible to rush along.

Uh, congratulations, I'll give you a gift another day. Tang En was stunned when he heard this, and then nodded in understanding. Turning to look at Phillip who was sitting down by himself, he said thoughtfully: It seems we need to have a good talk.

Not many people know that the Yatang Business Group secretly works for the Gray Army. Here again, Philip is taking the lead, which can be seen from the fact that he is fully responsible for Allen's affairs this time. So as long as Philip chooses to hide it. Then there is room for relaxation in Allen's matter.

Allen had obviously considered this issue carefully, and without looking at Phillip, he said softly: It's okay, sir, you don't have to be embarrassed. I believe that after this incident, as long as nothing happens to you, they won't dare to do anything to me.

Ha...your mother... With a wry smile, Phillip thought of a curse word, then rubbed his forehead in distress, and looked at Allen dissatisfied, You don't mean to put me on the fire grill to roast me. ?

Now the only one who clearly knows Allen's identity is Phillip. oh. And Wen Silin. However, the latter cannot protect itself now, so naturally it is not included. In this way, if Allen's words are reversed, that is, if Allen has a problem, then the first person Tang En will look for will definitely be Phillip.

Sorry. Allen also knew that this was a bit untrue. After all, although Philip was nominally here to arrest him, he had done nothing in the past few days. He could be said to be extremely kind to him. So after hearing this. He stood up and bowed to express his apology.

Okay, sit down and talk. He is just pretending, there is no need to apologize politely to this guy... Pulling Allen to sit down again, Tang En looked at Phillip with a half-smile, Tell me, what are the conditions. Based on the friendship between Tang En and Phillip. There is really no need to be pretentious. As long as they know each other, it would be uncomfortable to make it clear like Allen. Of course, this is no excuse to kick your nose in the face. As friends, of course you can't make things difficult for the other person.

The atmosphere relaxed. Phillip shrugged and spread his hands indifferently: Don't you think too much? With our relationship, there are no other conditions needed... Well, can you give me a chance to gain leverage? Don't be angry first, everyone is playing fair... Uh, calm down. , it was you who asked me to make random conditions... let go, let go, I can't breathe... I was joking, really, I was joking, cough...

After finally breaking open Tang En's hand on his collar, Phillip blushed and took a few deep breaths. He muttered with dissatisfaction, It's true... I came all the way here to help you, okay? Is this the attitude towards a benefactor?

Tang En picked up the wine glass calmly: If you don't mention the conditions, I'll pretend you never mentioned them.

Okay, okay, no sense of humor at all. After adjusting his collar, Phillip asked nervously: By the way, how is Wen Silin? You didn't kill him, right? Well, although he does deserve to die. , but you know, it would be very troublesome if he died.

Waving his hand casually, Don't worry, he should be enjoying the temptation of the angel in white uniform now in Allen Manor, living well. Well, very good.

What angel, temptation? Philip glanced at Tang En suspiciously, but couldn't tell anything from the latter's expression, and nodded: Forget it, it's fine if you don't die... I really don't have any conditions, I'm just a A messenger. Well, my old man wants to see you.

No! Tang En shook his head and objected without thinking. Are you kidding me? If I go to see the sword god Wooding at this time, wouldn't he be looking for death? Of course, this does not mean that Wooding must be hosting a banquet, but the two sides have different positions. Wooding is loyal to Bran. Even though he may not want to kill him, for the benefit of the empire, if he has the chance, he will not let go. Tang En, who has become the protective umbrella of the Gray Army...

Philip was not surprised and continued: If it is missing, it is best to restrict the scope of activities of the Gray Army. The bottom line is not to touch official roads and military arteries. Maybe you haven't received the news yet. The border has not been peaceful recently, and the Northern Wilderness The tribe is ready to start a war!

After a pause, he spread his hands and said, We are all Bran people. We can resolve our own disputes and discuss matters easily. But when facing external threats, even if we cannot resist together, we must at least not hold each other back... …This is the opinion of my old man, and also the opinion of Wang Ting.”

I'm not from Bran... He curled his lips and Tang En smiled brightly and said: Don't hold each other back? Haha, don't hold back Bran! Fortunately, they had the nerve to say it. If I remember correctly, Last year at this time, the Gray Army and Bran worked together to resist the Northern Wilderness tribe. What was the result? They were stabbed from behind! Haha, we are still doing this now. Do you think we are too stupid, or you are too stupid? Innocent?

Ahem... After coughing a few times, Phillip was obviously embarrassed and embarrassed after hearing this. He said helplessly, You have to aim at the target when shooting arrows. This idea was not mine...

You are not good people either. Tang En said contemptuously. It was you, the new nobles, who brokered the peace talks at that time. As a result, before Bran's army entered Dawn City, you just stood aside and didn't help. You didn't even give any advance warning. Is this the attitude a collaborator should have?

You don't understand. The situation was very complicated at that time... Damn it! Are you talking about me? Are you innocent? Philip seemed to be annoyed by these repeated questions. He waved his hand and said loudly, If you hadn't provoked the Temple of Light, , why are we so passive? Afterwards, the old aristocratic forces took the opportunity to attack, and we suffered heavy losses, and we haven't recovered yet.

Bullshit! Tang En curled his lips disdainfully. You dare to say that without me, Bran wouldn't have wanted to attack the Gray Army?

Uh... you're not innocent anyway. At least you were the trigger.

Put your sister on the fuse... Bang, put down the wine glass heavily.

He also slapped the table and stood up, furious: Fuck me!

Sir, sir... you two, calm down, calm down. Drink first, drink... Allen saw that the situation was not good. He quickly stood up to make peace and put the wine glasses into their hands.

It's just a moment of anger, just taking the opportunity to curse. In other words, it's not even angry. After all, in that big matter, the two of them are still too small. This is not something they can decide, and naturally they can't talk about falling out over it.

He sat down and took a sip of wine. Phillip took a long breath and leaned back on the chair: Anyway, I have informed you, you can decide what to do. Well, a friendly reminder, my old man has been guarding the empire for most of his life, and he is very stubborn. It wouldn't be a surprise to do anything about it. So you'd better give it some serious thought.

Is this a threat?

You - mother! Philip suddenly jumped up when he heard this and roared, This is concern! Do you understand concern? Huh! Forget it, whatever you think. If it is not about the safety of Joshua, Come on. I'm too lazy to remind you, you wretched fellow.

Haha, just relax. I am responsible for Joshua's safety. Who cares about you? Tang En glanced sideways and deliberately provoked.

Phillip was furious: Are you in charge? You are in charge! If my old man insists on going north, can you protect him... Ugh! He suddenly paused, as if he had realized something. Phillip quickly regained his composure and looked at Tang En suspiciously.

You really have the idea of ​​going north! Touching his chin, Tang En waved, Don't worry about me, you continue. Well, why did your old man suddenly change his mind and not insist on going north?

I'm calling you a ghost! At this time, Philip also knew that he had been tricked. He sat down dissatisfied, picked up the wine can, raised his head and took a swig.

This time it was Tang En's turn to push the lower limit: Hey, don't be like this. With our relationship, there is nothing else we can't say... Is there a master from the Northern Wilderness who has come, so he can't leave the capital? Or is there a change in the palace, and it needs to be Is he in charge? Oh, by the way, your old man is quite old, right? Could it be that he is ill...

Stop guessing, you know, it's impossible for me to talk about this. When it comes to Bran's patron saint, there is no small matter. So even Philip, who never bothered about anything, interrupted with a wry smile and a helpless look on his face. However, I was secretly frightened. My family knew about my family affairs, and Sword God Wooding's health was indeed getting worse day by day...

Phillip had already said this, so Tang En naturally couldn't ask any more questions, so he regretfully suppressed his doubts. Then he reached into his arms, took out a scroll and threw it to Phillip: Haha, don't think that we can only be beaten passively. Take this to your old man, and then let him think carefully about whether it is worth going north.

What the hell... Seeing Tang En's rather confident look, Philip, although he didn't think there was anything else in the world that could threaten his old man, still picked up the scroll with doubts, opened it, glanced at it, and was stunned for a moment. Then he thought of something, and his eyes suddenly widened, Fuck me!

…

The three of them didn't stay in the tavern for long.

Tang En came here for two purposes. One was to persuade Allen to return to the north, but this purpose was aborted as soon as he started talking. Allen has made his own decision, and he has just gotten engaged. It is really difficult to leave his fiancée behind and stage a bloody escape. So, I had to give up.

The second was to give the scroll to Phillip, but there was no problem. It’s just that after reading the content of the scroll, Phillip was obviously a little distracted and lost interest in chatting. So this was a short gathering. And so it ended hastily.

At the door of the tavern, That's it, Philip... Philip?

Ah? Oh, what's wrong? Phillip looked up in confusion.

Not paying attention to his distraction, Tang En took Allen's hand and put it into Phillip's hand: The safety of my little brother will be left to you. I don't care about anything else, but if something happens to him, I will definitely go find you. Then……

Phillip rolled his eyes when he heard this and interrupted angrily: Okay, I've said it several times, don't worry.

Then... Tang En said to himself, You two can be together.

Well?

Crack!

Screaming and cursing, it was like grabbing a hot iron. The two palms separated instantly, and at the same time they made a gesture of wiping their hands in disgust. Immediately, Phillip's resistance to complaints was higher. He reacted first and looked helplessly at Tang En: It's been a long time since we last met. It's not easy. Do you have to be so disgusting?

Sir, I have a fiancée. If this word reaches her ears... Allen smiled bitterly, I'm afraid I won't be able to live in peace for a week.

Haha, you're just joking. You guys are too serious. After successfully solving the troubles on this trip and also torturing Wen Silin, Tang En was in a good mood now.

Phillip and Allen looked at each other and smiled bitterly, shaking their heads. Say goodbye. Watching the carriage of the two people drifting away, Tang En hummed a tune and walked across the street and walked directly into the small hotel opposite the tavern.

Yes, this is their temporary habitat. Mr. Arthur is back. I heard that the city is not at peace. I was worried about you just now. Maybe it was because business was not good, but I finally met Tang En and his group, who looked like a small caravan, checking in. The hotel owner seemed particularly polite.

Haha, yes, please worry about it. Tang En said hello with a smile and walked through the hall. Walk into the backyard guest loft. A young man with a slightly gloomy temperament was guarding the wooden stairs. Seeing Tang En approaching, he stepped forward and handed over the parcel: Boss, what you want. In addition, the wooden barrels and hot water have been delivered to the room upstairs. Gone in.

Well, where is Michu?

The captain is arranging the accommodation for the members of the leader's family.

Okay, inform Mi Xiu and don't neglect it. Send them out of the city as soon as possible, and then send them to the northern station by water.

yes!

After a brief conversation, the gloomy young man left quietly. Tang En took the package and walked up to the second-floor attic. I didn't make any move to book the entire hotel. Although it was safe enough, it would be too public. However, the business of this hotel is really not good, there is almost no one on the second floor.

Walking to the door of the room on the left at the end of the corridor, Tang En stopped and raised his hand to knock on the wooden door.

The door is unlocked. A slightly tired voice came from inside the door.

Pushing open the wooden door, the curtains in the room were not opened, making it look a little dark. But after all, it was daytime, and he could still clearly see the figure sitting on the seat facing the wooden door. He was wearing mottled gray clothes, or rather mottled gray that covered up the original color of the clothes. If you get closer, you can still smell some faint smell...

Of course, this is not the point. The point is that the style of the clothes is a serious prison uniform! And if there are people who participated in the trial in the square here, they will be able to recognize the figure in prison clothes at a glance. It is Xia Wei'an, the flower of the knight who seemed to be buried in the sea of ​​​​fire not long ago!

You should take a rest. Tang En closed the wooden door and walked to the window to open the curtain. Outside the window, there was still a gloomy sky and light rain falling. However, compared to the dark room, the light that came in was quite bright, illuminating the slightly outdated furnishings in the room and also revealing Xia Wei'an's gloomy and tired look.

Can't sleep. Xia Wei'an's words became extremely concise as she felt depressed.

Oh, it's my fault. You should wash yourself first and then rest. As if he didn't see Xia Wei'an's sad mood, Tang En raised his hand and said, Clean clothes, put them on after washing. According to the saying in our hometown, This is called getting rid of bad luck. If necessary, you have to step over a brazier or something...

After a pause, he sighed and added, No need to think too much, turn this page and there will be a new beginning.

I didn't think much about it, at least not now. Xia Wei'an looked up calmly, moved her fingers, and tried to point to the tall wooden basin aside, but failed. I just couldn't move, and I was thinking about how to clean it.

Uh... After touching his nose, Tang En thought of the mountain of prohibitions that still existed on Xia Wei'an. He spread his hands in embarrassment, I'm sorry, I was negligent. Wait a minute, I'll go outside and find a female waitress. Help you clean it.

Walking to the door, No need.

What? Tang En turned his head in surprise.

Xia Wei'an pursed her lips and unconsciously lowered her head to miss Tang En's gaze. The house fell into silence, and the sound of raindrops outside the window gradually became clearer. It hit the eaves, fell on puddles, and fell on flowers... The subtle sounds that were simple, ethereal, or slightly dull were intertwined together, like a symphony of nature. , not very pleasant, better than simple and natural.

After scratching his head, Tang En broke the silence inexplicably: If there's nothing wrong, I'll go out and call you...

No need. interrupted and repeated again. Xia Wei'an raised her head, her eyes were dazed, her expression was calm and casual, Please help me wash it.

Okay, I didn't ask...eh?
