Chapter 425: Joining the Night Raid
Chapter 425: Joining the Night Raid
In this hall, Tatsumi's gaze was directed towards the female figure sitting at the first seat in front of him. She had short silver hair, but her right eye was covered by an eye patch.
But what is more concerning is her mechanical right arm. She was wearing a well-fitting black shirt and spoke slowly and calmly.
"I already know what happened."
Say it.
Then he looked at Tatsumi, raised his right arm and asked with a slight smile, "So what do you think now? Do you want to join our night raid?"
Facing this question, Tatsumi asked in a deep voice, "What will happen if I refuse?"
The white-haired woman responded calmly, "Don't worry, you won't die even if I reject you.
Of course, I will not let you leave. After all, you know too much, so I can only let you work in the studio."
He paused for a moment, then shifted his gaze to Tatsumi’s blade and continued, “And I will take your sword away temporarily.
So now that you know this, what do you think?"
After hearing this response, Tatsumi was silent for a short time and then recalled the purpose of his visit.
"I originally came to the capital to make a name for myself and save the village, but the capital..."
Just don't wait for him to finish.
A burly middle-aged man on his right folded his arms across his chest and suddenly said, "It is because of the corruption at the central level that the localities are suffering.
As a man, don't you want to change all this? "
The white-haired woman sitting at the head also reminded at this time, "This is Brand. He used to be an excellent imperial soldier, but after he discovered the corruption of the empire, he chose to join us."
And Brand followed closely and said, "Our mission is to assassinate these evil people."
But Tatsumi also asked the question in his heart, "If we just kill a few bad guys, the world won't change much, right?
In the end, places like my village can't be saved, right?"
However, the white-haired woman in the lead said with a smile on her face, "Then you should join us, right? There is already an anti-empire revolutionary army in the south of the imperial capital.
We are one of them. Our purpose is to collect intelligence and assassinate corrupt officials. One day, we will overthrow the corrupt empire and rebuild a new country that treats its people well."
Hearing this, Tatsumi's mood improved. "That is to say, we are just targeting the bad guys to clear the garbage. Aren't we righteous killers?"
But at this moment, laughter from the crowd rang out around him, and Tatsumi could also hear people's rebuttals.
"Killing is killing. There is no justice."
"Even if we die one day, it will only be retribution."
"How naive! This guy wants to be our partner, but it's a hundred years too early."
……
The white-haired woman at the head seat stopped them and said, "Everyone has different beliefs in fighting, and everyone has already made up their minds."
After a brief moment of silence.
Tatsumi finally made up his mind.
"How much can you pay me?"
Hearing this, the white-haired woman in the lead couldn't help but smile, "If you work hard, it won't be a problem to support a village."
After receiving such an answer, Tatsumi responded resolutely.
"Then I'll join you!"
In response, the white-haired woman in the lead withdrew her solemn words and said, "I am the boss of the Night Raid organization, Najeshitan, welcome to join my Shura Road!"
Say it.
Then he got straight to the point and said, "So as a companion, Tatsumi, can you tell us about the origin of the blade in your hand?
Of course, if you don’t want to say it, that’s fine too.”
The other people were also very curious about this question. After all, it was the blade that cut off the imperial weapon Murasame with one strike, and it was also in the imperial weapon atlas.
There is no record of this knife yet.
How could this not arouse people's curiosity?
But Tatsumi fell into silence, and he was also thinking about whether to speak out, but the divine tool was too involved...
He didn't dare to gamble, so he could only say in a deep voice, "This knife is a blade passed down from my family. I don't actually know where it came from."
Najeshitan, who was in the lead, could naturally tell that it was a lie, but she did not expose it. Instead, she replied with a smile.
"In that case, I won't embarrass you."
After that, he turned his head to look at the expressionless Akagi on the side, and then said in a deep voice, "As for Akagi, your imperial tool is damaged.
And it is beyond our ability to repair.
So I can only let you use the lower-level substitute, Chen Gu Tong Yi Wen Zi for the time being. I will try to apply for a new imperial weapon from the headquarters to adapt it for you."
In response to this, Chi Tong just nodded slightly and said, "Okay."
Seeing that there was no problem, Najeshitan continued, "And from now on, Akame will be in charge of educating Tatsumi. If you feel that he is a drag, it's okay to kill him."
"I understand."
In response, Akato just nodded slightly.
The blonde woman also came forward at this time and said with a smile, "Let's formally meet each other. I'm Leona. In order not to be killed, you have to do your best."
At this moment, Tatsumi sighed and felt like he was on a pirate ship, but he soon calmed down and went to meet Sau and Iyeas.
However, he did not choose to let the two become killers. Instead, he persuaded them to go to the studio. After all, being a killer is like saving the village.
It's enough for him to carry it alone!
Time passes quickly like this.
A month had passed in the blink of an eye, and Tatsumi worked as a cook in the base in addition to training.
But within the imperial capital.
However, there are undercurrents. The mysterious masked man has aroused fear among all the nobles, even the little emperor and the ministers are no exception.
After all, the other party has been active for so long.
All they could know now was what was spread among the people, that the other party was a killer with long black hair and a tiger-skin single-eye mask.
Besides.
It can be said that he knows nothing, in the minister's opinion.
This mysterious masked man is even more difficult to deal with than Night Raid!
And Ye Xi is also secretly searching for the trace of the mysterious masked man, trying to win him over to his own camp.
But again nothing was found.
He is like a ghost, only killing people.
Will show up!
……
At the same time, in the restaurant of the night attack base.
Najeshitan crossed her arms, looked at Leone across from her, and said in a deep voice, "Just start reporting."
Leone on the other side also took out two sketches and then said, "This time the target is Oka from the Imperial Guard and the oil merchant Jamal."
