The blazing sun shot like a rocket on the ground, and the ground caught fire, reflecting the boiling flames like oil. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It was almost noon when the sheriff came to the Happy Boar tavern again, this time without his men, but on his own.

"Suke......" Harrick didn't sit down, and said directly to Suke.

"Harrick, you've been busy these days. As he spoke, Suke filled a jug of mead and took the initiative to sit down at the table.

"If you know, come and help me. The conditions are still the same as last time. Harrick smiled wryly, not drinking, but Suke remained silent.

The Silversword Organisation traced the mastermind behind Prince Nord's assassination and learned that Count Arassis would be the next target of the Assassins.

This meant that the Assassins did not rush to flee after their failed assassination, but hid in a corner of the city of Chanda, waiting for an opportunity to assassinate Count Araciss.

These days, the city's garrison is searching for the Assassins' hideouts. But they were only looking for suspicious outsiders, as no one had ever seen the Assassin's face.

"Suke, there aren't many people here who know where you came from. The reason why I came to invite you for the second time is only because I know what you have done......"

Harrick continued, but was coldly interrupted by a frowning Suke: "You want to threaten me?"

Harrick smiled helplessly. "It's not. You are a smart person. But with the news you've found, I think the chances of capturing the Shadow Assassin will be better. ”

Suke bowed his head and drank, no longer stubble. Even if he knew where the Shadow Assassin was hiding, he couldn't tell.

In the world of the Dark Shadow Assassins, rules are rules, and there is a price to pay for breaking them.

Once the chief intelligence officer of the Shadow Assassins, Suke knew how the Shadow Assassins dealt with traitors.

At this time, Vincent, who had been at the door, suddenly broke in, grabbed a glass of wine, and drank it all.

"There was a fire at the city gate, which affected the fish in the pond. With that, Vincent gave Suke a meaningful look.

Vincent then said to Harrick, "If I were yesterday's free body, I would join you as a mercenary, Harrick. ”

"This is my new guy who is in charge of cleaning up those troublesome drunks, named Vincent. Suke introduced Harek.

"Even if you're an employee of the tavern, I can hire you as a mercenary, Vincent, interested in signing up at the arena gate. ”

"Harrick, you go back first, I'll think about it and give you an answer tomorrow. Suker gave the order to evict the guest, and Harrick had to leave.

"Suke, I need your help. Before Harrick left, he left this sentence.

Watching Harrick leave, Suke motioned for Vincent to sit down and poured him a glass of wine. "What do you think about this? I just want to live a peaceful life. ”

"I don't know, I just know that peace needs to be fought for. Sometimes the means of fighting can be a little more violent, but it is necessary. When the chaos starts, no one can escape, so it's better to fight hard. ”

Suke smiled at Vincent, waved his hand, motioned for him to leave, and fell into deep thought.

Harrick had no way of trying to find out where the Shadow Assassin was hiding, as no one had ever seen the Assassin's face, only the Assassin wearing a black cloak.

Since the Dark Shadow Assassin's next target was Count Arassis, the Assassin would definitely try his best to get close to the Count's Mansion.

In this way, the Assassins' hideout could be reduced to the area around the Count's Mansion. Su Ke judged in his heart.

Harrick should have thought of this, but it still didn't help much in searching for the Assassins. The key is the face of the assassin.

Next, in order to assassinate Count Araciss, the Shadow Assassin will definitely find a way to disguise himself as a servant or a guard to infiltrate the Count's mansion.

Suker continued to mentally analyze the Assassin's next move. The Count is guarded by the Bolton Knights, and now has the leader of the Silver Sword Organization to protect him.

It stands to reason that the Shadow Assassin has little chance of succeeding. If he didn't use assassination, he would definitely want to find a way to deal with the Count by other means, using indirect means.

"Brother, dinner is ready. The voice of his sister Frass came into his thoughts.

Su Ke was taken aback. If I'm an assassin, since assassination isn't going to work, start with food.

The Shadow Assassin will find a way to infiltrate the back kitchen of the Count's mansion and then throw poison into the food prepared by the Count when no one is looking.

"Frass. Suke hurriedly shouted.

"Is there anything wrong with brother?" asked Frass.

"You go to Sheriff Harrick now," Suke said after a moment's thought. "Bring him the food on the table and tell him to watch his diet. ”

"That's it?" the girl had an inexplicable expression.

"Go ahead, you just have to bring the original words. Suke urged his sister impatiently.

The young girl didn't understand what her brother meant by this phrase. But she could feel that her brother was in a hurry.

Frass packed the prepared dinner into a delivery box and left the tavern briskly.

Harrick, there's only so much I can do for you, and it's up to you whether or not you can catch the assassin next. Suke sneered in his heart.

At this moment, a noisy sound of footsteps came from outside the tavern door.

First, Rogge, who was riding a tall horse, and the leader of the Black Honor Mercenary Regiment appeared in front of the tavern with black eyes, only to see them turn over and dismount and enter the tavern.

Then hundreds of freelancers and mercenaries swarmed in, and in an instant the entire tavern hall became lively and noisy, and the seats were full.

"Hey, Boss Sooke," Blackeye quipped. "I'm still stunned for what, hurry up and serve us wine, and get some food. ”

Su Ke came back to his senses and asked with a puzzled expression: "Didn't you go out of the city a few days ago, why did you come back again?"

The dark-eyed gaze skimmed the freelancers to the side. "Then you'll have to ask Knight Rog, who brought a team of knights back to chase us back. ”

"Rogge, what's going on?" Suke placed a bottle of wine and a few glasses on the table.

"Do you need to ask me?" Rogge opened the bottle and poured himself a glass. "I think you've heard something, right?"

Except for the slave trader Ramon, the entire city of Chanda is the most well-informed of the "Happy Boar". Even Ramon, who has great powers, will often come to Suke to inquire about the news.

"I just wanted to make sure, is the Count going to recall the other mercenary groups?" Su Ke sat down, and the three of them talked as they drank.

"Yes," Rogge said after a toast, filling himself up with another glass. "Zenda needs to protect its powers, even if those forces are fighting for the dinar. ”

"Hey, Lord Rogge. Black-eyed said roughly. "Without gold, who would willingly die for others?"

Rogge couldn't refute it, he couldn't say anything high-sounding for justice and honor.

"Any news of the Assassins?" he asked Suker about the Assassins.

Suke shook his head. He had already brought his judgment to Harrick to his sister. But he couldn't say it, and that would only get him into trouble.

"If the Assassins can't catch it," Rogge said worriedly. "The safety of Count Arassis cannot be guaranteed, and the city of Chanda is always in danger. ”

"Then send more people to protect the Earl, or do you want to draw some men from me. Blackeye continued. "As long as the entire Earl's Mansion is completely drained, I don't believe that the Assassins can still fly through the sky. ”

"This only makes Chanda more panicked and confused," Rogge lamented, "and even makes the nobles of the kingdom laugh at us, even an assassin needs so many people to guard against." ”

"And what do you say you should do?" complained indignantly. "You don't even see the Assassin's face, how can you catch him?

"Whether or not the whereabouts of the assassin can be found depends on Sukeken's refusal to help. Rog turned his earnest gaze to Suke again.

"Don't look at me, I can't help much," Suke said with a sloppy look. "Maybe the assassin has already caught him!"

"Haha~~" The black eye said with a smile on the side. "Don't embarrass Su Ke, there are rules in this underworld, and you let him break the rules, don't you want to kill him. ”

"I'll go back first. Rog suddenly got up and glanced at Suke before leaving.

"What's wrong with this guy," Blackeye couldn't figure out. "I had only just taken a few sips of this wine, and I left in a hurry before the food was served. ”

Maybe he suddenly remembered that he had something to do. Suke looked at Rog's departing back.
