Chapter 354
Orson remained alert the whole time.
On the first floor, Orson didn't feel anything. On the second floor, he saw that the bartenders and waiters working here were mostly at the level of the fourth level. When Orson came to the third floor and saw the half-orc girl, he hesitated for half a second at the stairs.
In his perception, the half-orc girl's aura was not weaker than his own.
The other party was at least at the level of the seventh level.
It seems that this time, he really met a tough guy.
Thinking of this, Orson walked into the box.
In the box, the same cloaked man who appeared at the entrance of the alley just now was sitting on a chair.
Because of the table blocking him, he couldn't see his lower body.
But this time, Orson could clearly feel that the other party was a real person, not a piece of clothes driven by magic.
Thinking of this, Orson sat on the sofa.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Orson." The cloaked man said. "I am the 'Angel of Killing' you are looking for."
Of course, the other party's voice was still processed by magic, making it impossible for him to distinguish.
"Although I really want to show my true face, as I just said, it's a pity that we can't do this in our line of work."
"Okay." Orson nodded. "I can understand you, so please answer one of my questions."
"You want to ask who entrusted me to arrange for someone to kidnap Mr. Lit's adoptive parents, right?"
"Since you know, I don't want to ask anymore, tell me quickly." Orson said so, and there was a seventh-level standing outside the door. The cloaked man in front of him couldn't see his strength, and he didn't want to stay here any longer.
"Don't be anxious, Mr. Orson." The killing angel said.
"Compared to these questions, do you know why I asked you to come here?"
"I don't know, and I don't want to know." Orson shook his head.
"We agents are also called the black gloves of the nobles."
"Unlike the subordinates of the nobles, who are called white gloves, we also do dirty and tiring work for the nobles, but
their subordinates do some work that can be put on the table, while we mainly do some work hidden in the dark."
"We are good at assassination and kidnapping."
"That's why we call ourselves the black gloves of the nobles."
"Why are you telling me this?" Orson frowned when he heard it.
"I want to say, Mr. Orson, if you need anything, you can also come to me directly. There is no need to cultivate a similar organization yourself."
The other party said this, making Orson's eyes widen.
"I don't remember telling anyone about this." Orson said this, and his tone became serious.
Even his father Lucius didn't know that he was running such an organization.
"I'm here to cooperate with you, Mr. Orson." The other party said this, and there was actually a hint of sincerity in his tone.
"You know, although we do things for money, sometimes we also want to find a reliable master for ourselves."
"After all, only in this way can we settle down."
"So, you mean to let me be your master?"
"No, no, no, you are far from qualified now, Mr. Orson." The other party said so.
Although the other party was telling the truth, Orson always felt uncomfortable when he heard it in his heart.
"What we value is your potential and ambition, Mr. Orson." The killing angel said so, turning his cloak around and looking at Orson.
"Do you know why assassins are so useful, but few nobles choose to train them?"
"Because once they are discovered, they will be regarded as having a wolfish ambition and will be attacked by nobles from all over the empire."
"It's interesting, isn't it? There are many nobles who use such dark means, but when they bring them to the table, they pretend to be righteous to refute such behavior."
"So, we admire you, Mr. Orson, for having such ambition and courage."
"Now, we will see if you have the ability, Mr. Orson."
"What do you mean?" Orson frowned and looked at him.
"You want to know who the client is, right? Out of professional ethics, I will not tell you the client's name directly, but in three days, there will be an assassination against someone around you."
Osen's eyes completely turned cold when he heard this.
"What did you say?"
"Ah, I think you may have misunderstood something, Mr. Orson." The Angel of Death said this, looking at Orson and laughing hoarsely.
"The person who assassinated you was not arranged by us. There are hundreds of agents like me in the empire, and there are many who are better than me."
"Maybe they think my business ability is not good enough. Even if they changed the client this time, it's a pity that they didn't expect that the client has my people."
"I think if it was you, Mr. Orson, I told you this news in advance, you should have taken precautions, right?"
"Wouldn't it be better to settle the new and old grudges together at that time?" The other party said so.
Orson sat on the sofa, touched his chin, and thought about something.
After a long time, he said: "Since you said you look forward to our cooperation, I will give you a commission now."
"Of course." The other party nodded after hearing this.
"I will pay 300,000 gold coins for the head of the mastermind."
"..." The other party heard this, thought for a long time, and then shook his head. "Sorry, after our evaluation, the other party's head is worth far more than 300,000 gold coins, and the risk is extremely high, so we will not accept it."
"Okay, I understand." Orson said, stood up, and smiled at the other party. "Thank you very much. I think we will have time to cooperate in the future."
"I hope so." The other party also said politely, but did not get up to see the guest off, but just watched Orson walk out of the room.
After Orson walked out of the room, the orange-haired female Orc warrior guarded the door. When she saw Orson, she bowed respectfully.
"How old are you this year?" Orson said, looking at the other person.
The half-orc girl didn't reply.
"It's okay, I just want to see when you reached the seventh level and compare it with myself."
When the half-orc girl heard this, she looked at Orson in surprise, her lips moved, and then she said: "Twenty-two."
"Looking at your figure, you still have the same figure as when you were fifteen or sixteen. You must have suffered a lot when you were a child." Orson revealed
With a sympathetic look, "But now that you are under the hands of the Killing Angel, you should be doing pretty well?"
Saying this, he shook his head and walked downstairs.
"Really, why should I care about other people's affairs?" He muttered to himself.
…
On the other side, after walking out of the Orchid Tavern, Orson saw the doctor standing against the wall.
The doctor also noticed Orson coming out. He turned around and walked to Orson's side.
"How was the chat inside?"
"It's not bad." Orson said, looking into the distance. "I got general information and made some conjectures of my own."
"That's fine." The doctor felt relieved after hearing this.
As long as there is progress, there is hope of finding the other party.
"Doctor, I want to ask you to do me one more favor."
"Say it."
"I've been busy with other things recently, and I'd like to ask you to help Li Teuk."
"May I?"
"Li Teuk? Your brother?"
"Yeah." Orson nodded.
When the doctor heard this, he looked troubled.
"That's fine, but Orson, are you sure your brother will agree with my approach?"
"I will convince him." Orson said.
"That's okay," the doctor said, reluctantly nodding. "But if he drives me away if he doesn't agree with his ideas halfway, I won't stay there with my face licked."
"It's okay, she won't." Orson smiled.
Although he wanted Leeteuk to be independent, and Leeteuk kept shouting that he would solve the matter by himself, the complexity of the matter was beyond Orson's imagination.
If you leave it to Li Teuk alone, Li Teuk may not be able to handle it well. On the contrary, he may get himself into big trouble.
Even if Virgil is allowed to be Li Te's deputy, Orson is not at ease.
The words of the Killing Angel just now had clearly warned him that the matter he had entrusted to Virgil had been discovered.
He would have to let Virgil hibernate the secret organization for a while.
"Okay, I'll go back first, and then I'll arrange for Li Te to meet you, just wait for notification."
"Okay." The doctor said, waving to Orson, and then the two of them dispersed on the spot at the entrance of Orchid Tavern.
When Orson returned to school again, it was already late in the afternoon. Orson first went to inform Virgil and asked Virgil to be responsible for connecting Li Te and the doctor, and then wrote a letter to his family. , reminding Lucius to pay attention to safety recently.
After all, the Killing Angel said that in three days, people around him would be assassinated.
I am not worried in the academy. After all, the security force of the academy is very strong, and non-teaching experts above level seven must also register before entering the academy.
In addition, there has been no vicious injury incident in the academy for a long time. Orson believes that the other party will not choose to do it in the academy.
And the only person around him, after thinking about it, was Lucius who was far away in the Duchy of Antica.
Now that the war is coming, as the commander-in-chief of the frontline army, if Lucius is assassinated, even if he is only injured, it will cause a huge blow to the morale of the frontline soldiers.
The more Orson thought about it, the more he thought it was possible, so he didn't even go to the student union all day today.
Until the evening, there was a knock on the door of his dormitory. Orson opened the door, thinking that Li Te had come back, but he saw Olivia and Lianka standing at the door.
"Um...Olivia, Lianka, why did you come to my dormitory?"
"Isn't it because someone hasn't appeared in front of me since noon that makes me worried?" Olivia said this and rolled her eyes at Orson.
Then, she pointed to the lunch box she was holding.
"I heard that Lite was out of school today. I was afraid that you would have no food, so I prepared it in the dormitory and sent it to you. Lianka didn't eat yet, so she came with it."
"Yeah." Lianka on the side also nodded at this moment.
"Ah, thank you for your hard work." Orson said this and hurriedly made a way. "Please come in."
The three of them sat at the dining table, and Olivia took out all the dishes from the lunch box and placed them on the table.
Looking at the sumptuous food on the table, and then looking at Olivia who was sitting opposite, looking at him with a smile on her face, Orson felt a warm feeling in his heart.
Is this life after marriage?
It's so happy to have dinner with my wife at home.
Although
There was a sister-in-law who seemed to be a bit of a nuisance, but Orson had already subconsciously ignored her.
"I'm sorry, I went to deal with something today and was late to return to school. I'm sorry to bother you to prepare the meal at home and send it to me." Orson said apologetically.
"It's okay." Olivia put a piece of stewed beef into Orson's bowl.
"I came here because I was afraid that you would be too busy to eat. If you are not busy, my kindness would be wasted."
"Although I hope you are not busy..." Olivia suddenly whispered.
"Ah? What did you say?" Orson asked again without hearing the second half of Olivia's words.
"Nothing! Just eat your meal!" Olivia said, and put another piece of meat for Orson. "Finish your work early and spend more time with me."
