Chapter 339: Recruitment
In a house in the Tucheng County Government, a figure flickered.
At the bedside, some healed women were helping an unconscious woman clean her wounds.
Next to the bed, there were several basins of clear water stained red with blood, and it seemed that the person was not lightly injured, and there was a screen behind it.
Behind the screen, Su Qi'an and the Ninth Princess were sitting, and around them, there were several guards.
These people are the special combat team belonging to Su Qi'an, and the eight guards of the Ninth Princess.
Their faces are tense, and they keep an eye on the movement behind the screen, and if there is any movement, they will strike immediately.
After all, the person lying on the bed was not an ordinary person, but the female assassin who assassinated Su Qi'an that day.
This person's strength has not only been seen by Su Qi'an and the Ninth Princess, but also by the Qingcheng County Guard and High Priest who encircled and suppressed.
Even if this person falls into a coma, he can't be careless.
Regarding the identity of this person, Su Qi'an basically figured it out, this person is the assassin who ranks first on the Kyoto killer list and is known as the king of Hades.
Only with such skills and strength can he be qualified to be the first on the killer list.
It's just that no one expected that this assassin, known as the king of Hades, would be a woman.
Even the Ninth Princess was taken aback when she learned the identity of this person.
The name of Hades is basically known among the high-level elites in Kyoto, but no one would have thought that she was a woman.
Hades's whereabouts are very secretive, and no one knows her gender, not even the hired family.
But men are women, it is nothing to them, as long as Hades can handle things well, the hired family will not be sorry to ask.
And with such skills, I basically subconsciously believe that most of this Hades are male.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this ambiguous gender as a cover that adds more protection to Hades.
In fact, he is interested in Hades, not only in other county guards, but also in Su Qi'an.
When the king of Hades set foot in Qingcheng County, Su Qi'an got the news, but he kept his troops until the Hades Dynasty came to his territory before sending troops.
This is why the Qingcheng County Guard will say that Su Qi'an is waiting for them here.
But also, being targeted by such an assassin, it is impossible for anyone to be so calm.
In order to catch this person, in addition to Su Qi'an's troops, his real backhand is the Ninth Princess.
This assassin was able to escape again and again, and his skills were good. Look at the book
Su Qi'an didn't expect that these people who relied on him would be able to capture him.
Mainly relying on the Nine Princesses, before the assassins stepped into the territory of Tucheng County, the Nine Princesses with eight guards had already squatted in advance, waiting for the assassins to come.
As soon as the Assassin arrived, he was taken by the eight guards who were squatting, which is why there was no trace of the Assassin in the bushes.
It wasn't that the assassin had great powers and ran away again, but was taken down by the eight guards.
This time, to be honest, the eight guards took advantage of it somewhat, and the king of Hades was injured, and in the process of fighting, he lost too much blood, and he was halfway beaten and passed out.
And because the pursuers of the Qingcheng County Guard came quickly, the eight guards didn't have time to evacuate, so they could only hide it first.
The reason why he didn't tell his subordinates was naturally because he didn't want to affect them, and similarly, he was also to paralyze the Qingcheng County Guard externally.
If it is learned that the assassin was taken by Su Qi'an, Su Qi'an's Tucheng County is afraid that it will not be peaceful, and in the next few days, there will definitely be a county guard who will come to see the true face of the assassin in the name of visiting.
Even if it doesn't work, there will be some kind of order to take this assassin away from Su Qi'an.
In order not to cause unnecessary trouble, he and the Ninth Princess knew about it.
The news released to the outside world that the assassin's whereabouts were uncertain, and it was also a kind of protection for Su Qi'an, at least the eyes of these county guards and high priests would not keep staring at him.
Instead, they will continue to send troops to search along the perimeter of Tucheng County, so that the number of troops in their own territory will be reduced, and Su Qi'an's plan will be better implemented.
Fortunately, they healed in time, and the assassin did not die, but it was her life
Big, I shed so much blood, I was hunted down for so long, and I have resisted until now.
Don't talk about anything else, just this kind of spirit makes Su Qi'an a little admired.
Although this man had assassinated him and even left him with a wound in the shoulder, the man in the back was hunted down and the injury was not light, and the two sides were even.
Of course, the most important thing is that Su Qi'an always thinks that this assassin has no real murderous intentions towards him.
After learning that she was the killer Hades who was the number one killer on the killer list, Su Qi'an was even more convinced of this guess.
It didn't matter if this person really wanted to kill him, it didn't matter, Su Qi'an wanted to know who sent her.
Although there was some speculation in his heart, there was no confirmation after all, and only confirmation made Su Qi'an have a bottom.
Moreover, Su Qi'an had another idea about this assassin, he wanted to recruit this person.
This idea, I'm afraid only Su Qi'an can have, recruiting an assassin who almost killed him, this is really crazy.
Of course, Su Qi'an didn't tell anyone about this idea, and everything was still going to wait until the female assassin woke up.
According to the doctor, the assassin would most likely wake up today, and they had been waiting for two or three days anyway, and waiting for them would not have delayed them.
Just as Su Qi'an was about to drink tea, about to say something to the ninth princess, suddenly, behind the screen, a rapid cough sounded.
Without any hesitation, the several medical women who were waiting for them quickly left the bed.
This is a kind of protection for them, who can know what the character of this assassin known as Hades is, if he wakes up and kills him and accidentally injures the medical woman, then Su Qi'an is very guilty.
After all, these medicine girls are the people of the Ninth Princess, so they naturally have to be protected.
Not long after the medical girl left, standing beside Su Qi'an and the Ninth Princess, the elite who had been specially withdrawn quickly stepped forward and stood in front of the screen, the big knife and bow and crossbow in her hand had already been aimed, and once there was any unfavorable move, she would be killed unceremoniously.
Soon after the coughing fell, the imaginary assassin burst out and killed people did not appear.
The next moment, I could vaguely see the side of the bed, a woman slowly propped up, leaned on the side of the bed, she was silent for a while, and said softly.
"Don't be so nervous, I want to do it, I already did it, remove the screen, let me see who is so brave as to save an assassin."
Although the voice was very soft, it was a little cold, and since this person spoke, Su Qi'an gestured with his eyes, and the next moment, the screen was removed.
To be honest, Su Qi'an only had a rough idea of how this female assassin named Hades looked like her.
The main reason is that this person is a woman, and she has been being treated for several days, and she herself is too dangerous, so Su Qi'an is naturally not allowed to go up and look at this person deliberately.
These are all explained by the ninth princess, and Su Qi'an can only abide by them.
With the removal of the screen, Su Qi'an could see this person's appearance clearly, and there was still a big difference from the image of the beggar he met for the first time.
In modern terms, it is a baby face, which is called a cute, and it is impossible to see that there are twenty-four or five, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is seventeen or eighteen years old.
But with this harmless face of humans and animals, who would have thought that there were at least hundreds of people who died in her hands, and they were a killing god alive.
Hades looked at Su Qi'an, there was obviously a hint of surprise in her eyes, she didn't expect that the person who saved her turned out to be her assassination gaze.
A smile suddenly appeared on her face, and she said leisurely, "I didn't expect you to save me?"
"This should be the first time I've been in the industry for so many years that I failed in a mission, but I was saved by an assassination gaze, which is interesting."
"Su Qi'an, if you save me, I'm afraid I'll regret it, if you don't make it, your life will be lost at any time."
With a harmless smile on the face of humans and animals, but saying such cold words, this scene gives people a strong contrast.
In an instant, the atmosphere in the room was tense all of a sudden, and even the Ninth Princess's brows were furrowed, as if there were signs of moving at any time.
Compared with everyone's nervousness, Su Qi'an seemed very calm, put the tea in his hand on the table, and said with a smile.
"Yes, if you have the skills
, you can try it, Ben Hou is also looking forward to it."
"But before you do it, Ben Hou has a few questions for you."
Su Qi'an's calmness is not pretended, there are many people who have been in contact with Hades, so he can naturally see it.
In response to Su Qi'an's question, she did not refuse and nodded.
"First, whose order did you accept, come all the way to Jiaozhou to kill me?"
"Second, your mission failed, as far as I know, the killer list of people to take the job, whether they fail or not, will only shoot once, if you continue to shoot, the employer will get a higher price, but if you can't take it, it's your business, I want to know, do you plan to continue to complete the mission to assassinate me."
Su Qi'an's first question was not unexpected, anyone wanted to know, Hades was a little surprised that this person understood the rules of their killer circle so clearly, no wonder the employer was willing to pay so much, and now she felt that this Su Hou Ye was indeed unusual.
Hades was silent for a while, and then said, "Regarding the first question, I'm sorry, I can't tell you, not divulging employer information is the bottom line of our circle, but with your cleverness, there should be suspicious candidates in your heart, yes or no, you should be able to guess."
"As for whether to continue to hunt you down, this is a headache for me, I have been in the Hades industry for so many years, but I have not failed once, and today I am planted in your hands, say it, I am afraid that someone will question my ability, but if I continue to kill you, I can't do it now, it is indeed debatable."
"You're done with your question, but I have a question, what if I take this mission and continue to assassinate you? What happens if I give up? Are you going to let me go?" Hades looked at Su Qi'an with a playful smile.
"If you take this task, you should know that you can't get out of this room, and if you give up, Benhou can not only let you go, but also hire you for the same price."
"I didn't hire you to kill anyone, but I wanted you to stay and serve as a guard for my personal safety, what do you think?"
What Su Qi'an said was a light cloud, as if he was saying a trivial matter, but Hades's face changed significantly.
The idea of hiring a killer to be your sideguard is incredible.
"My request has been given to you, how to choose, it's your business."
