"Hey! That guy! If you are really a gangster, stop her!" The female bodyguard glanced at the ashes that looked like an outsider on the side and shouted sternly.

"First of all, you don't have the power to command me, and then, I can't beat her." Ashes shrugged, not only did not stand up, but took a step back.

"Bastard! Didn't the order you received to ensure the safety of your boss's life?!" said the female bodyguard gritted her teeth.

"Yes... My mission goal is to protect Mr. Cruper's life, but you are not within the scope of my mission..."

"Damn it! If I die, are you sure to save your boss from this woman?"

"That's not what you need to care about... On the contrary, Mr. Cruper, I suggest that you order your bodyguard to drag the assassin down now, and I will take you to the safe house where we have arranged heavy troops to guard you, which will definitely be your best." Ashes turned his head slightly and said to Cruper behind the female bodyguard.

"I……"

Before Cruper could say anything, Anjie rushed forward with her weapon again and fought with Cruper's female bodyguard... After just a few encounters, many wounds of varying degrees appeared on the female bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard's bodyguard'

"Mr. Cruper, your bodyguard is almost unable to hold on... Although it may be immoral to say this, at least you shouldn't let your loyal subordinates die so worthless... it's like... a waste." Ashes narrowed his eyes, bypassed the battlefield between Anjie and the female bodyguard, and approached Cruper step by step.

"I...well, I'll go with you! Longya, I'll leave this assassin to you!"

Longya... This should be the code name of the female bodyguard, not her real name. If you only mention this code name, it will be really hard to guess her gender.

Dragon Ya is now in a tough battle, and the defeat is already very obvious, and there is no time to respond to Cruper. Ashes took this opportunity to directly grab one of Cruper's arm-

"Mr. Cruper, trust me, I will take you to a safe place!"

After saying that, he led Cruper to the depths of the passage.

According to Ascension's estimate, Long Ya was already extremely performing in the hands of the woman named An Jie. As for Ascension, he felt that even if he was fully armed, he would never last longer than Long Ya, unless he put the Fire God Gun directly in the middle of this narrow passage, and perhaps he could still kill the other party by sweeping the master to death by sweeping the master...

Fortunately, Cruper's physical strength was pretty good, and he did not feel the burden of ashes along the way - but if he had run slowly, he would have been caught by the Imperial Gendarmerie before hiding into Xiling Street, and it would not have been the turn of Ashes to carry out this mission.

The two of them ran into an underground drainage pipe connected to the passage in one breath. Ashes turned around and closed the iron gate at the connection.

There were chains wrapped around the iron gate, and there was a heavy iron lock hanging at the end of the chain, but the key was not inserted into the lock.

This is a gear-type mechanical lock. Whether it is to open or close it, you must have a key.

"Do you have a key?" Cruper glanced at the mechanical lock, then looked at the ashes, and asked in a low voice.

"unnecessary."

Ashes directly and roughly pulled off a silver leaf pendant from Cruper's clothes, rolled it hard into a roll, and then penetrated it into the keyhole.

Yuri has never taught Ash the skill of picking locks. This is what Ash learned in the isolation area itself. Except for those buildings that were destroyed on the day of arrival, in fact, most of the houses in the isolation area are locked. If you don’t want to make a loud noise because of the broken window, picking the locks will become a very useful skill.

There is not much difference between locking and unlocking. Just turn the direction of the rotation. After a while, a "click" sound of gears came from the inside of the mechanical lock. The lock tongue closed, connecting the head and tail of the chain together.

This was not enough. Ash suddenly turned his wrist and stabbed the rolled silver leaf roughly into the lockhole. With a harsh sound of mechanical cladding, something seemed to break inside the mechanical lock... The internal structure of the mechanical lock has been destroyed. Now even if the most experienced lock-opening master comes, he will definitely not be able to pry the lock opener.

Seeing that the iron gate was completely locked, Ash and Cruper couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief - no matter how strong the woman named Anjie was, it would still take a lot of time to break the iron gate by violence. In short, they are temporarily safe.

"Huh... what do you mean?" Cruper wiped off the sweat from his forehead and turned to Ashes and asked. At this point, he could only fully trust the young boy in front of him who claimed to be the "Iron Hand Guardian".

"Just call me Yuri." Ash replied.

"Yuri?... Are you from the Northern Federation? Not like it?" Cruper was a little puzzled.

"Just just a random name, I have forgotten what I used to be." Ashes said another "Tell the truth".

"Okay, Yuri... By the way, do you know the body of that female assassin? Could it be sent by the Empire? Maybe... it is a member of the military police force..."

"I don't think so." Ash shook his head and said to himself, if the Empire really wanted to kill you, you would have been dead long ago... Using rubber bands, bone needles and poison, you can complete the assassination in the audience, and then escape from Xiling Street in the chaos. The difficulty of the entire mission has been reduced by more than one level.

Of course, it is not ruled out that the woman named An Jie is also one of the assessment links... After all, the guys in Huangquan seem to like to suddenly increase the difficulty during the assessment process, and it is not impossible to force an assassin in.

But... the woman named Anjie gave Ash a very strange feeling. She clearly had strong strength, but she was extremely poor in the design of the assassination plan. Not to mention anything else, if Cruper was just about to die, Ash could not come up with ten ways, but that woman chose the stupidest and lowest success rate to implement it...

Will the IQ of guys with high martial arts value lack? Or...

Did she do this on purpose?

"Why? You also know... I am now a serious criminal wanted by the Empire..." Cruper said.

"Of course I know, but do you know how much you're on the wanted warrant?"

"Fifty thousand gold coins... I have to say that the price is still a bit beyond my expectations. Most of my property has not had time to transfer. The gold coins I carried on when I escaped did not have this number. They were willing to offer such a high price to offer me a reward..."

"Fifty thousand gold coins, that's the price to capture you alive. In addition, those who provide effective clues can get rewards ranging from 1,000 to 10,000 gold coins, and the bonus that kills you is only 2,000 gold coins."

"Two thousand? So low?" Cruper was stunned for a moment. He had indeed not paid attention to his reward information seriously. After Ash said this, he realized that there was such a huge gap.

"Yes, so you are alive and you are valuable to them." Cruper's value does not lie in the 400,000 gold coins he embezzled, nor does it lie in himself, but in the complex forces behind him... If Cruper is used as a breakthrough point and investigates the clues, even if he cannot uproot the group behind the scenes, he can at least severely damage it.

“…”

Since Cruper's value is as important, there will definitely be someone who hopes that he will disappear from this world, so it is understandable to send assassins. Maybe the person who sent assassins and the person who helped him escape...

No, not right!

If that person wanted Cruper to die, the guy's body would have rotted in the drainage ditch long ago - rather than killing Cruper's life, Anjie's assassination was more like a performance, a farce for those forces to watch.

"This is a fucking...it's so messy..." Ashes muttered in a low voice. He seemed to have stepped into a muddy water. As for whether it was a coincidence or a deliberate arrangement, it was not something he could guess.

"Ah? What did you just say?"

"Nothing, I just complain that this place is so smelly... Let's go quickly, it will be troublesome if the assassin catches up...grass!"

As soon as the two of them turned a corner, they saw two black figures blocking the fork in front of them. They were wearing wide clothes, hoods on their heads, and holding a long and shiny knife in their hands. The eyes under the brim of the hat were staring at Ash and Cruper.

"Yes, is it the Iron Hand Gang's support?" Cruper turned around and asked.
