(Today I went to sign Qidian's new contract, which was very busy, but only five thousand words can't be missing~!)

"call……"

On the first day of the left shoulder, Tang En, who was lying on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes. He could not see anything in the dark, but it was enough to sense his heartbeat... He let out a long sigh, turned over, and then stretched.

It is now early in the morning, and even if the completely covered curtains are opened, the room will not light up.

After cleaning up the traces in the house, clearing the warning device at the door, opening the wooden door, Tang En walked out of the room. He looked around and saw that there was no one in the corridor, only the wall light was still flashing with dim flames.

Walk to the right, and every few meters, a wooden door will flash across your side until the end of the corridor, and a yellow wooden staircase will appear.

Such a layout is undoubtedly a hotel.

In the evening, when Tang En arrived at Riva City, he did not choose to leave. Instead, he found a hotel on the side of the road. Then, after pulling up the warning device, he fell to bed and fell asleep without delay.

Hotels and taverns in another world are usually one, but there are always exceptions, such as the one at the moment. When Tang En walked down the squeaking stairs, he went straight to the vestibule.

The hotel business is a business all day, so the door is naturally not closed. The hotel owner was lying on the counter and napping. After hearing the movement of the stairs, he opened his eyes and turned his head subconsciously. He was stunned and waved to greet him.

"Hi, um...Mr. Arthur, are you going out so late?" The businessman has good memory, not to mention that it's only a few hours before and after. Of course, this boss can remember Tang En's name.

Tang En's mouth curled slightly and he chuckled and responded: "Yeah, I'm a little hungry, go out to find something to eat."

"Oh, Mr. Arthur is the first to come to Riva City, right?" After a moment of pondering, the hotel owner continued, "If you don't go to the tavern at this time, there will be some snack shops on the west side of the city, which are not far away and are not expensive."

"Haha, that's the best, thank you, boss." Tang En nodded to express his gratitude.

"You're welcome."

...

Of course, Tang En of this hotel will not come back. After leaving the gate, he walked straight to the main road beside him.

Riva City is not a large city, and it is not a prosperous area, so it is a bit deserted. Except for occasionally seeing a few shaking drunks, there is no one on the street.

However, Tang En was lucky. Before long, a carriage stopped not far away in front of him. Then, like a family of people got off the car and paid the fee, Tang En just took it.

After hearing Tang En's request, the coachman nodded, indicating that he knew the location there, and then the carriage set out again to drive towards Xicheng District.

As the hotel owner said, the distance is indeed not far. It takes about ten minutes to drive and the carriage stops on the side of the road and arrives at the destination.

Half the street was filled with mist, and the pots that were roasted or cooked were constantly making hot. Perhaps the appearance was not too clean, but the aroma of various foods could always arouse people's inner appetite. Either act alone or in groups of three or five, people who like to play at night sat on the table in front of the stall, touching 0 wine glasses, and shouting about their own affairs...

The hot fog, fragrance, noise... intertwined together to form a lively and fragrant life scene, which has a bit of a Ukiyo-e meaning.

After getting off the car, Tang En looked at the scene in front of him and felt a little dazed. The feeling was as if he had returned to the present world. He came out of the Internet cafe in the middle of the night and sat on the greasy plastic stool of the barbecue stall on the side of the road. He waved his hand, "Boss, come a few skewers of squids", then held up the not-so-clean cup, raised his head to kill the beer inside...

Perhaps this familiar scene aroused the long-clogged string in his heart. Tang En's mouth raised and his mood suddenly became much more relaxed. Even in this moment, the pursuit was no longer important.

I looked around and found a barbecue stall casually. The barbecue stuff was naturally not as rich as it is in the world, but Tang En didn't care. He casually chose some pork and beef, ordered a glass of ale, and then found an empty table to sit down.

While siping ale, Tang En's previous feeling did not retreat, but instead had a stronger meaning.

At that time, I was a third-rate college student. I didn’t have to run around for life or worry about my family. I just lived a passionless life without any passion... Now? It’s not wrong to say that the butcher with blood on his hands is, but the passion has come, but it’s dull but it’s gone forever... In just over a year, I have become a completely unfamiliar self!

Bang, “Your stuff.”

The complex thoughts instantly returned to reality, but the barbecue stall owner placed a tray full of meat slices on the table.

Shrugging, Tang En closed his eyes and let out a sigh of relief. His mind suddenly became clear. Then the corners of his mouth were curled up and put it in his mouth with a piece of flesh. The past cannot be pursued, at least it is not suitable for memories now...

The barbecue slices taste very good. Of course, it may also be because of the first time I tasted the skills of a stall in another world.

After swallowing the shiny slices of oily flesh with satisfaction, Tang En grabbed the ale cup beside him and touched his lips.

boom……

A faint roar came from a distance, and then there was a rustling sound, a bit like a muffled thunder in the clouds.

This snack street suddenly became quiet, and many people looked up at the sky. Of course, this was futile, because even if the weather changed, it would not be possible to see the clues in the dark sky. Tang En immediately moved his gaze to the east. Of course, he would not think it was a muffled thunder. If he guessed correctly, someone had taken action, because the noise behind him was very much like the sound of a wall collapse.

These sounds didn't last long and soon disappeared. The people around them didn't care, and the noise came back to their original appearance.

But then, a sound of horse hooves gradually came clearly. Obviously, the direction was exactly this street.

Others didn't care. After all, this snack street is indeed quite famous in the city, and even the nobles sometimes try it out. Of course, they would only ask the servants to buy it back and eat it, and would not come to this place that doesn't match their identities in person.

Tang En frowned and looked at the street to the east again. After systematic training, his senses were much better than those of ordinary people. The direction of the sound of horse hooves when they came seemed to be the roaring place just now. Moreover, the sound of horse hooves was also a bit strange. It was obvious that they were not alone, but the sound of stepping out did not seem messy.

This sound effect may sound nothing, but it is not easy to do in reality. For example, if a large group of cavalry step on the same point without any other action, it will naturally give people a kind of oppressive momentum. If it is messy, it will involuntarily give people a feeling of a mob.

Moreover, this effect is not only on the surface of visual perception. If the horse hooves of a large group of cavalry can be so uniform, the combat effectiveness will be extremely amazing when fighting. Of course, it is not just a simple problem of tacit understanding, it requires rigorous training and extremely exquisite riding skills and other elements. Therefore, it usually appears in the legion because there are people who can choose from thousands of people there. But now in the city...

Could it be... Tang En raised his eyebrows suddenly, and then a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

Tatta...hiss!

At the corner of the street, about a dozen cavalrymen turned out one after another, and then strangled the reins at the same time. After a long neighing, the horse slowly walked slowly along the street. He was covered in bronze armor and had a long spear hanging several feet...

Sure enough! Tang En took a sip of ale and nodded slightly, and the curve of the corners of his mouth became bigger and bigger. He just wanted to go find you, but he didn't want to come to him, but he came to him...

"Oh, it turns out to be a guard cavalry." A guest at a table not far away told the answer that Tang En had previously guessed.

"Uh, I'm still out to patrol so late?" asked a man who looked like a businessman curiously.

"You are from another place. Haha, our security hall is different from those in other cities." The guest shook his head, with his face pride in the city and contempt for his city. "Well, do you see, that guy tied up? I bet that must be an assassin. Haha, I don't open my eyes, and he actually dares to provoke our security director."

"Oh? So this director is very powerful? Guy, let's have a drink and I'll treat you." Obviously, this businessman was curious. Originally, in most people's impression, the director of the security guard was a comfortable person sitting in the office to give orders. It is not ruled out that those with high strength are, but even so, they will not risk charging.

"Haha, okay, then I'll tell you. In fact, the reason is very simple, because our Minister of Security is called..."

Bovis... Tang En sighed in his heart, looked up at the dozens of cavalry riding off the horse dozens of meters away from here. The man was so majestic, with his black beards wide open. Although the red nose was rubbed, it hurt his mighty temperament, but the eye mask on his left eye repaired it, even adding a bit of ferocious aura...

This is Bovis, who once killed hundreds of assassins and became famous in the entire Bran Empire. This is also Bovis who abandoned the opportunity to enjoy the capital and came to the northern city with a strong folk custom! This is even more Bovis who climbed into the position of the chief of the security department but liked to rush on the front line during battle...

I dare not say that it is unprecedented, but Tang En has been in another world for a long time, and what he sees and hears is extensive. But whether it is the former chief of cavalry or the current chief of the security department, the only one in the entire Bran Empire has this quirky personality!

...

It seemed that he was just coming out for a casual midnight snack. Powells and his cavalrymen found a noodle stall. There was no inseparable Bernie beside him, but he was just thrown under the table next door and tied it into a black man with iron chains. Well, he really looked like an eye-opening assassin.

The stall owners and guests around were not surprised, and they seemed to be used to it. Only a few foreigners would look at Bovis from time to time as they listened to the discussions around them.

"It's really just a different world... I don't have the style of urban management at all." Shaking his head, Tang En drank the ale in the glass, and sighed with some loss.

...

"Boss, let's have two of the strongest drinks."

"Okay."

Putting down his arms and taking advantage of this time, Donn once again observed Powells.

There was no show, and I sat on a table with my cavalry and ate noodles. My whole face looked a little blurred because of the foggy hot soup...

This was the second time Tang En met Bowes after leaving Laiyan City. The first time he met was in this city, which was not very pleasant. Not only did he mess up the city, he also sent the other party directly to the treatment hall.

Now that I think about it, although there are reasons for the situation at that time, I also have a vague idea of ​​revenge.

At the Battle of the Flame Dragon Club, Tang En tasted the first crushing defeat in another world. He was directly slapped away by Powells' domineering sword light. If someone hadn't disturbed the situation at that time, he might have died.

That battle gave Tang En a great excitement. In addition to hard training and increasing his energy, he did not dare to be careless in the preparations before the assassination. It can be said that it was from that moment that Tang En matured upright and looked like a killer.

Later, he finally took revenge and defeated Bowes and Bernie. In fact, it may not be possible to kill them at that time, but Tang En did not do it in the end.

The specific reasons are very complicated, and Tang En herself couldn't figure it out, but she felt that it was rare to see people who adhered to principles like this and were desperate, so it would be a pity to kill them. Of course, there might be some other reasons, but Tang En really couldn't appreciate them.

However, one thing is confirmed, it has nothing to do with justice. Although Powell has always liked to kill assassins who everyone shouted to beat, this does not mean that he is a good person. I believe he will not admit this. The reason is very simple. The last time the two fought, they were on the streets, and there were many people around him, but when he broke out in the fight, he was very wild and did not care about this at all.

Thinking about Powells' actions in Laiyan City, it seems that he just simply wants to kill as many assassins as possible, such as obsession, other things such as glory, accidental injury, etc., are not attracted to his eyes!

...

"Your wine."

"Yeah, thank you!"

One in one hand, Tang En picked up two glasses of bright red wine from the tray, smelled it gently at the nose, and the irritating smell went straight into his throat. Yes, it is indeed a strong wine, suitable for a drink when the cooperation is successful...

He took a long breath, started around the crowd, and walked towards the noodle stall not far away.

The business on this street is good, with people coming and going, and Bovis and others do not pay attention to the show, so they are not idle and clear the noodles. The customers come and go as they please, and they do not change anything because there are more than a dozen big men in armor.

After passing through several tables of cavalry, Donn went straight to a few meters ahead of Bowes and stopped, paused a little until Bowes raised his sight, raised the wine glass in his hand, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "Drink a glass?"

Drink a drink... the simplest greeting is also very suitable for the atmosphere here. Meeting by chance, having a drink, will you passers-by or friend afterwards? Who cares?

Sighing, Bowis sucked the noodles hanging on his lips, looking at Tang En, and looked a little surprised, but then his eyes narrowed, his brows frowned, and he slowly lowered the fork in his hand. However, just a few simple movements, his whole body emitted a bit of a bit of aura.

It is worthy of being Bovis... I sighed lightly in my heart, and Tang En's face was still calm. He raised his cup again, raised his eyebrows, and showed the meaning of inquiry.

The momentum gradually contracted, and Bovis looked at Tang En up and down, and suddenly grinned, "Haha, okay." After saying that, he waved his hand and let the somewhat inexplicable cavalry leave the table.

"Thank you." Don Edward chose to sit opposite Bovis, put two glasses of wine on the table, then stretched out his index finger and gently pushed one of the glasses over, pushing it to the middle of the table, not a minute or a little more, and putting his arms away.

Bowes' eyes moved slightly, he looked up at Tang En, then stretched out his right hand and moved the wine glass to the side of the table in front of him. Among them, his arms did not cross the invisible dividing line in the middle at all.

"I seem to smell a familiar smell, huh, can you give the answer?"

"Of course. But..." After spreading his hands, Don Eun glanced at the big bowl of noodles on the table in front of Powells, "Sorry! I don't seem to be here at the right time, um, you can finish it."

"Okay!" Bovis responded without hesitation for a moment. Then he picked up the fork again, lowered his head and ate the noodles as if no one was around him.

The speed neither accelerated nor slowed down, and it was still like before. It seemed that nothing happened just now. He just looked up and burped slightly, and now he started eating again.
To be continued...
