The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero

"Mom!"

"Kill the little one first!"

When the assassins saw the current Saint Emperor hiding behind the car, they immediately changed their targets.

Unfortunately, there was nothing around that could serve as a cover, and the guards and maids who went to help were shot into a hive in the first place.

Then.....

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Lin Qiao, who walked out from behind the car, pulled the trigger at several assassins, and shot three assassins in the head one by one with three accurate shots.

Then he ran quickly, facing the bullets fired by the submachine gun, hugged the white-haired little girl who was at a loss, and rushed to the nearest bunker.

"Damn, are you all blind? You can't even hit this!?"

Under the protection of the invisible blocking field covering Lin Qiao's body, the scene looked like some anti-Japanese drama.

It was obviously such a dense shooting, but not a single shot fell on him, which made the assassins feel like they had seen a ghost in an instant.

"Retreat!"

Seeing that they could not eliminate the guards in a short time, and the support from the Holy Residence was coming soon, several assassins immediately chose to run away.

Lin Qiao, who was hiding behind the wall, poked his head out, patted the white-haired loli's head with one hand, and thought with a pistol in the other hand.

After hesitating for two seconds, he deliberately missed a few shots and broke the legs of two assassins.

After seeing this, another assassin immediately picked up the submachine gun in his hand to supplement his companions in order to prevent information leakage... Then Lin Qiao threw the empty pistol directly, turning him into a gun demon.

So far, the assassination was over.

As the MVP of this game, he thought he was still qualified to take a break without chasing the escaping assassin with others.

"Lord Sheng Tianzi!"

Captain Asano's scream attracted his attention.

He was kneeling on the ground at this moment, looking a little at a loss, while the current Sheng Tianzi, who was hiding here, fell to the ground powerlessly, leaving only a weak breath.

But except for the scratches she suffered when Lin Qiao pushed her down, she had no external injuries.

"Go call a doctor, Lord Sheng Tianzi has a heart attack!"

She shouted anxiously, and the Lord Sheng Tianzi lying on the ground opened and closed his mouth like a fish after landing.

Her body began to twitch, and she raised her hands with all her strength, tightly grasping the corner of Captain Asano's clothes, as if she was trying hard to convey something, but she couldn't say it.

Finally, her pupils gradually became dilated...

"Baowaki! What are you still standing for? Call a doctor! Do you really want to see Lord Sheng Tianzi die here?"

"Yes, yes, I'll be right there."

Lin Qiao shrugged and turned away slowly.

There was no need to rush, he was already hopeless anyway.

And that was not the symptom of a heart attack, it was poisonous anyway.

She stopped and looked back at Captain Asano, who was kneeling on the ground and crying over the corpse of the current Lord Sheng Tianzi.

Although he looked very sad, the last thing the Holy Emperor wanted to say was only four words:

"--You traitor!"

Chapter 183 Funeral

The Holy Emperor is dead.

Ten years ago, this ruler who led the people of Tokyo to resist the gastrula and rebuild the Tokyo area, and who went to the front line not long ago and led the Self-Defense Forces and the Civil Police to win the Second Battle of Kanto, was declared dead this morning after failed rescue efforts.

The cause of death was a sudden heart attack caused by the shock of the assassin's assassination.

The doctor did not perform an autopsy on the body, but unilaterally announced this fact after confirming her death.

--This is an excuse that sounds okay at first, but it is bullshit when you think about it.

If it is a heart disease, then not only the person himself, but also the guards around him should be equipped with drugs such as quick-acting heart-saving pills.

But Asano's performance as the captain of the guard... the heroine of a domestic drama?

Well, he is still much better...at least he didn't use a stand-in when he cried, and he didn't put eye drops in his eyes.

Faced with such a suspicious cause of death, it was impossible for others not to have doubts.

But when they tried to ask further questions and even requested an autopsy, Tendo Kikunosuke refused on the spot on the grounds that "the body of the Holy Emperor is not allowed to be desecrated."

Due to the power of the Tendo family and the testimony of the captain of the guard, Asano, others naturally did not dare to say much.

After all, even the Holy Emperor, the biggest backer, has fallen, and they can no longer fight against the Tendo family.

In fact, many people who originally stood on the side of the Holy Emperor have shown goodwill to Tendo Kikunosuke these days.

"Human nature is really ugly... Speaking of which, I am also a human being, and I cursed myself into it without paying attention."

"But this happened on the first day of work, I hope the salary can be settled normally."

After watching all this from the perspective of an observer, Lin Qiao sighed inexplicably, and then clicked his tongue.

After the assassination failed, the group drove all the way to the outside of the giant stone monument, and was finally attacked by the passing protogastric creatures, and the car was destroyed and the people died.

The two assassins who were captured alive by Lin Qiao after their legs were broken snatched the guards' guns in the prison and shot themselves three times in the temple.

The current official announcement is that this attack was a terrorist attack against the Holy Son by a fanatical sect that worships protogastric creatures.

As for how they entered the Tokyo area with submachine guns and got through the security check of the Holy Residence, it is unknown.

Anyway, everything is dead and there is no evidence.

"Lord Saint Emperor!"

Kneeling in front of the coffin of the former Saint Emperor, the former captain of the guard, Asano, cried and wailed.

As for Asano, Baowei Zhuoren's memory did not have much relevant information, only knowing that he joined the Self-Defense Forces at the end of the Proto-Gastral War.

Although he had some ability, it was difficult for him to get along because he had no family background. It was not until he was promoted by the current Saint Emperor that he became the captain of the guard.

And he usually obeyed the orders of the Saint Emperor and was definitely a close minister.

But it was such a loyal faction that chose to backstab...In Lin Qiao's view, as long as he was not the one who poisoned him, he would have saved the last bottom line.

To be honest, Lin Qiao didn't know why Asano chose to betray, but whether it was threatening with family handles or simply promising huge benefits, that kind of thing had nothing to do with him, and he was not interested in reading this guy's memory.

"It's my fault... It's all my fault! It's all my fault!"

The sadness and guilt didn't seem fake, but no one gave the "loyal dog" of the Holy Emperor in the past a good look.

Although the Holy Emperor himself was not killed by the assassin, as the captain of the guard, he was naturally responsible.

Besides, for such a big thing, there must be two people to take the blame, right?

So he was directly removed from his position.

To put it simply, this person is no longer worth winning over.

Not long after, the funeral of the Holy Emperor, or the former Holy Emperor, was held as scheduled.

On the mourning hall, the white cloth covered the coffin. Although there were many people around, the scene was unexpectedly quiet.

They all wore black mourning clothes, and there was only the sound of Tiantong Kikunosuke, who was responsible for presiding over the ceremony, reading the eulogy.

But compared to the funeral, Lin Qiao would rather call it a celebration of the Tiantong faction.

"Wearing a mask called sadness, but laughing secretly in his heart, he stood on the grave of the dead and showed his victory in a mourning manner."

That's probably what happened.

"Come to think of it, I didn't see Rentaro Satomi and Tendo Kimura...but that's normal."

All the people who came were big names in Tokyo, and at most the future heirs of the family, who came to see the world.

For them, one was an adopted son from another family, and the other was hated by the Tendo family because of his parents. It would be a miracle if they were qualified to come to such a major occasion.

Of course, it was not without gain.

A woman with messy purple hair and a melancholy temperament, even from a long distance, you can smell the alcohol on her body.

Muroto Sumire

One of the four sages, and one of the IQ ceilings of this world...only in scientific research.

Somewhat absent-mindedly, he stood behind the white-haired loli with a group of guards, but was held by the other party's hand.

"....I want to...see my mother again..."

Tears welled up in her eyes, and she spoke with a trembling voice.

Perhaps because she had saved his life before, she unexpectedly trusted the role of Bao Xie Zhuoren played by Lin Qiao.

Nodding, without saying much, Lin Qiao just held her hand and walked to the coffin step by step.

Looking at her mother whose face was pale but still as beautiful as she was in life, she burst into tears.

Unfortunately, the husband and other relatives of the former Saint Emperor had died early during the gastrula war, and the only one left was her 12-year-old daughter.

Finally, amid the cries of the future Saint Emperor, the coffin slowly closed, and she was helped down by the maid after she was tired of crying.

The whole funeral did not last long.

Finally, the coffin of the former Saint Emperor was buried in the ground, and it was declared over.

However, the dead person was the Holy Son of Heaven, so people did not leave immediately. Instead, they left in groups of two or three after a long time.

The work of guarding was pushed to others. In order to avoid other people who came to curry favor with him, Lin Qiao found a place where there were no people and considered what to do next...

At this time, an old man with gray hair, long beard, and sharp eyes like a hawk came over - Tiantong Kikunosuke.

"Lord Tiantong?"

According to the memory of Bao Bao Zhuoren, he imitated the other party's respectful appearance.

However, for his compliments, the old man always looked down on him. It was not until a long time later that he said leisurely:

"Well done, Zhuoren."

Chapter 184 Old Bitch, you really treat me as a big enemy, right?

Tiantong Kikunosuke showed a gratified tone and walked up to pat him on the shoulder.

"I didn't expect that those guys would actually attack the future Holy Son after failing to assassinate the previous Holy Son. What a bunch of idiots."

When he said this, although his face didn't change, he could hear a hint of annoyance in his tone, and the anger he said was almost squeezed out from his teeth.

It's hard to say whether he was angry because of the assassin's assassination or because of those people's unauthorized actions.

Then he looked at Lin Qiao in front of him with relief.

"But it's also thanks to you, otherwise if these despicable people really succeeded, I'm afraid the consequences would be disastrous."

"You are indeed worthy of being the chief of the National Defense University. You have not disgraced your father's reputation, nor have you failed my expectations of you."

"No, no, it's all thanks to you." Lin Qiao also pretended to be a lackey in response.

"No need to flatter me, this is all you deserve. Even the future Saint Emperor has great praise for you. I think you should be able to become the captain of the guard soon. You are really young and promising."

Originally, he was a little worried about how to let a newcomer who had just joined the guard become the captain.

After all, the guard of the Saint Emperor is completely the one-man show of the Saint Emperor himself. Even he can only crawl in the form of "recommendation" and barely squeeze someone in.

——Or the kind that can be kicked out by the other party at any time.

But now, there is no need to worry at all.

Everyone can see that it is only a matter of time for Bao Xie Zhuoren, who has saved the life of the next Saint Emperor and is deeply trusted by the other party, to take this position.

There is not even a competitor.
