thump thump~

At this moment, Liwa walked in slowly.

"Miss... Instructor Gozzi of the Imperial Assassination Force brought his disciples to ask for an interview. Do you choose to interview?"

"See... why don't you see me, let them come directly to the restaurant and have dinner together."

...

After a while, amidst the noisy footsteps, Liva led Gozzi and his party to the restaurant of the Duke's Mansion.

"General." When we met again, Gozzi's attitude became more submissive.

"Please sit down..." After waving for Gozzi to take a seat, Selene looked at the five people standing upright behind him, "Let me introduce myself."

"General Selene, meeting for the first time, my name is Cornelia, and my assassination rank is No.3."

As the current highest combat power in the elite group, Cornelia stood up first without hesitation, and introduced herself without saying a word.

"My name is Bonnie, and my assassination rank is No.4."

"My name is Green..."

...

"My name is Akahito, and my assassination rank is No. 7." The last person to speak was a man wearing a high-necked white windbreaker with red trim, with hand armor similar to ancient Japanese armor, and a Japanese-style sword at his waist The black is long and straight.

The Lord came, and Selene looked carefully, Chi Tong, just like her name, had a pair of red pupils.

But unlike Selene's scarlet eyes that made people panic, Chi Tong's eyes were more like old red wine, deep red.

"The pupil color is the same as mine, but...you are called Chitong, is it because your eyes are red, so you are called so?"

"This is a simple and simple way of naming, your relatives, are there still people whose eyes are purple and are called purple pupils, and those whose eyes are black are called black pupils..." Selene said half-jokingly.

But Chitong was very straightforward, and immediately replied: "There is no Zitong, but I have a younger sister, her name is Heitong..."

"Chitong, don't be rude..."

"It's okay, interesting girl... take a seat, I think you are almost drooling just looking at the dishes on the table."

Looking at the group of people sitting restrainedly at her dining table, Selene suddenly had an idea.

"Do you know why the local garrison in the western provinces stood by and ignored your pleas for help?"

"Do you know why the local garrison in the western provinces stood by and ignored your pleas for help?"

"There is a very interesting news... I thought I should tell you..."

This is just a sudden thought of Selene, and it is not a calculation. She is not the kind of psychopath who thinks about others all day long.

In the original book, after the elite group of the empire's assassination force was reduced by more than half in the Sun Moon Lake mission, the establishment was canceled by the upper echelon of the empire, and the remaining personnel were scattered and sent down to carry out the assassination missions individually.

Among them, Chitong achieved an almost 100% completion rate of assassination missions during this period.

Until, Chitong received the task of assassinating the imperial traitor Najie Hitan, was persuaded when she went to assassinate Najie Hitan, and then followed her to betray the empire with all her heart.

Afterwards, Chitong wanted to take his younger sister Heitong to flee the empire together, but Heitong died in battle because of his good friends Natara and Yindu in the assassination force strengthening group fighting against the revolutionary forces.

The existence of such mortal hatred made Heitong unable to agree with his own sister's thoughts at all, so he rejected it without a doubt, thinking that her sister's actions were a betrayal of the empire and a disregard of the hatred of dead comrades in arms.

Just like that, the once gluey relationship between sisters officially broke up.

Heitong wants to personally execute his elder sister Chitong, and make her become a member of the Eight Households so that she will never leave him; The machine's sister.

People have to sigh with emotion, it's really 'sisters and sisters'.

Afterwards, Chitong beheaded his last remaining close comrade-in-arms, assassinated Tsukushi, one of the No.6 elite "Seven People", and then beheaded his adoptive father and master Gozzi during his escape. .

Since then, he completely betrayed the empire, cut off all past passions, turned his blade, and became the sharpest knife in the hands of the Southern Revolutionary Army's assassination force, Night Raid.

However, if I let Chitong and the others go to assassinate Najiexitan now, and Chitong still has so many comrades in arms alive, will she still be persuaded by Najiexitan's words?Go to the southern rebel forces who call themselves the Revolutionary Army?

Selene said that she is very curious now!

Like thunder on the ground, Selene's words instantly attracted everyone's attention, and the originally quiet restaurant suddenly became turbulent.

boom!

"what?!"

"General, what do you know?!"

"Please tell us..."

Originally, after returning to the imperial capital, the local garrison in the western provinces, "the friendly army is in trouble, and it is as immovable as a mountain." Gozzi has already reported it and sent someone to investigate.

Why these local defense forces are indifferent, is it really not good enough, or is there someone in the empire blocking it, or the place has already linked up with the rebel forces.

This requires a big "?"!

"Don't be rude!... I'm very sorry, these humble disciples are a little offended..."

Gozzi scolded, but he didn't care to pursue the rude behavior of these disciples, put down the knife and fork in his hand, and asked eagerly: "General, what is the news?"

Selene looked around. Everyone, including the foodie Chitong, stopped what they were doing and looked at her seriously.

"Najie Xitan." Putting down the teacup, Selene said with a blank expression.

"How is it possible?" The only remaining five members of the elite group exclaimed.

"Isn't General Najehitan a rising star of the empire alongside General Esdes in recent years? She clearly has a bright future, why... why did she get involved with the rebels?"

Cornelia said in disbelief.

Estes and Najehitan can be regarded as the idols of the younger generation of the empire, especially Najehitan, who is not as cruel as Esdesh, has a gentle personality and a good reputation, and is the target of Cornelia's pursuit .

"Don't believe me?" As she spoke, a stack of documents appeared out of nowhere in Selene's hands, "Look for yourself, this is Najehitan's resume in the western province of the empire, in the White Wolf River Basin, before she was promoted to general."

Standing up and bending down, he respectfully took the document from Selene with both hands. Gozzi quickly flipped through it. As time passed, his face became more and more ugly.

Although he already had a guess in his heart, Gozzi gritted his teeth and still tried to ask: "General, if there are only these words, I'm afraid there is not enough evidence..."

"Hmph... are you making me laugh?" Selene narrowed her eyes slightly, her scarlet pupils fixed on Gozzi.

Selene's voice was very soft and soft, but it was so clear that everyone in the room could hear it. The next moment, a terrifying coercion gushed out, her vision was distorted, and the purple-red shadow surrounded the entire world. Restaurant looms.

Just for a split second, Gozqi and the other six people were so suppressed that they couldn't speak at this time, and the suffocation felt instantly, and they couldn't even move their fingers.

Under such a terrifying atmosphere as if descending from an abyss, no matter the body, the spirit, or even the soul, it seemed that they were being torn apart.

"Gozzi...Since he has chosen to surrender, don't think that neither side will be offended. You must know...the faction that sits on the fence often dies miserably."

As soon as the voice fell, the terrifying atmosphere in the restaurant dissipated.

"...Be careful next time, if you do this again, it won't be so easy to expose..." Selene said in a gentle tone, as if the breath in the restaurant before was not released by her at all.

Ignoring the six people who were holding their throats and breathing heavily, Selene continued: "Back to the topic, when did your imperial assassination forces arrest the rebels, when did you need evidence? Doubt is enough!"

"As for the evidence you need, there is, Liva, you explain..." Selene stood up while speaking, "[Susano], continue to serve the dishes and entertain the guests."

"I still have military affairs, so for the rest of the time, Liwa and [Susano] will entertain you. I wish you a happy meal."

beep, beep~

Accompanied by the faint sound of crisp footsteps, Selene's figure quickly disappeared at the end of the corridor of the palace.

...

"Okay, Instructor Gozzi, Miss has already left, you don't need to continue saluting." Liwa said in a deep voice as he walked slowly to Selene's main seat.

"...General Liwa, what evidence do you have?" Gozzi raised his head and asked.

"I'm no longer a general, I'm just an old servant under the young lady's family." Shaking his head and rejecting Gozzi's honorific title, Liva stretched out his palm shining with purple light, and said, "This is read from the brains of those corpses." come out of memory."

"Najie Xitan has met with the rebel forces many times in the southern province, including Oberg's assassination of Daniel and Barbara."

"What it means, I believe instructor Gozzi has already thought about it."

"Thank you, General Liwa, for the information, I already understand what to do..."

------

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

Walking out of the palace-style restaurant, on the corridor, Gozqi and his party were all in a trance, as if they had a sense of gratitude for their survival after the catastrophe.

The tearing sensation in his body constantly reminded Gozzi what he was facing just now.

This terrifying, soul-shaking breath made Gozzi feel that his previous plan was ridiculous.

Previously under Ornest's order, he estimated the strength gap with Selene, decided to sneak attack, and used [Murasame]'s poison to assassinate Selene. Looking back now, he was simply sending him to death!

But now that he has chosen to surrender, he really can no longer wait and see like this and continue to be a fool.

Let's use Najie Xitan's head as a certificate of honor.

Thinking of Najie Xitan, Goziqi hated it, it was her who almost wiped out him and his elite assassination team that he trained so hard.

Under the purple light that Selene gave to Liva, the scene where Danielle, Barbara and Najahitan met was played in loop in his mind like a projector, it was so clear!

Those bastards of the rebel army and Oberg's assassination association only got their traces at the local garrison garrison with Najie Xitan's handwritten documents, and restrained the garrison army to stand aside in the form of fake military orders!

Indeed, to Gozzi, those children in the elite group are just the passers-by of the skirts, or a tool for seeking more power...not something that cannot be given up.

However, in order to train these children, Gozzi also worked hard. After so many years of being together day and night, even a dog can develop feelings, let alone a human!

If the dead ones are useful and their value matches, Gozzi doesn't care, but what is this?Died in the information leaked by the traitor!The two strongest disciples died!Worthless!

Labor does not match gain!

"Cornelia, let's go back and rest for a while, the next target: Najahitan's neck... eh? Chitong, what about you?"

His eyes were empty, and Chitong murmured dully: "Father, the deaths of Nahaxiu and Guy... turned out to be the betrayal of the upper echelons of the empire. What are we..."

"These things are not what we need to consider. Just be yourself and complete the tasks assigned by the empire. Chitong, why do you... have such thoughts?" Gozqi looked at Chitong in amazement, and said With the slightest guard.

"Having said that... but we are doing this, is it right... We are reduced to tools of the upper class, and we fight for people's smiles..." Chi Tong seemed to be in a daze, still Said selfishly.

"The upper city here is so prosperous, and the entire Duke's Mansion is even more magnificent...But we have seen everywhere, where people's lives are extremely difficult...Many people are dissatisfied with the empire ..."

This time, even the other four surviving members of the elite group were stunned. What Chitong said in the first half could explain her confusion after losing an important comrade-in-arms, but in the second half, it was a bit inexplicable.

After all, in their eyes, isn't an assassin obedient, obedient, absolutely obedient?

"That's enough! Shut up! Chi Tong!" Gozqi yelled sharply, "What you should do now is to sharpen your martial skills, kill Najiexitan, and avenge your comrades!"

"Chitong, I understand what I think...but now, you are not qualified yet!"

After saying that, Gozzi turned his head and looked towards the shadow of the palace corridor.

The assassin's intuition, Gozzi can feel that there is some kind of existence in the dark that is silently observing him nearby.

It should be the kind of special ability that can hide in the shadows, Gozzi secretly thought.

"Now our highest priority task is to take down the head of Najahitan!"

......

At the same time, on the other side, the courtyard of the Duke's Mansion.

"The above are all the remarks of that assassin—Chitong..." Standing behind Selene, Liva said respectfully.

"Chitong's idea...is great, but it's too naive, and it's always weird to say such words from the mouth of an assassin like her."

Putting down the audio recorded by the soldiers of the Shadow Corps, Selene didn't know why, but there was always a sense of déjà vu, which felt weird.

"With this kind of thought, she is no longer a qualified assassin, and her knife is already blunt." Liwa, the former iron-blooded general of the empire, expressed his thoughts on this.

"Assassins don't need to think too much, and too active thinking can mean that their position is not firm!"

"Do you need an old servant..." Liva made another gesture of cutting his throat.

"No, no, no... Liwa, don't be so angry, wait and see for a while... This is a good show, we just sit on the Diaoyutai."

"Yes."

I don't know why, Liwa always feels that his young lady is too cautious and likes to calculate, she likes to act according to the established plan in everything, and doesn't easily break it on her own initiative.

All kinds of conspiracies and tricks are easy to come by, and there is no enthusiasm that young people should have. As long as they don't directly provoke her, they will always be as stable as an old dog.
