Chapter 638 Who can be of great use? One try will tell
“He is a man wearing a cloak. He is the one who has contacted me in the past, but I have never seen his true face. I only call him the Underworld Envoy.
We are all from the Red Gate, we do things for money, but we are only marginal people. The Dark Envoy sometimes assigns me tasks and gives me money after I complete them. "
Red Gate? This was the second time Jiang Youzhen had heard of this organization. The last time was when she met the censor Hu Daoqing at night at the iron mine.
At that time, the Red Gate Organization also accepted the mission to assassinate her, and this time it was actually related to the Red Gate again.
"Then who is this person? Is he also here to gather information? Or is he an assassin?" Jiang Youzhen asked, pointing at the person on the ground.
"This man is a Class D assassin from the Red Gate, and he's here to carry out an assassination mission. I brought him here, and the order we received was to kill them all, leaving only one alive." He said, looking at Asan.
Jiang Youzhen and the others immediately looked solemn. They were in the open while the enemy was in the dark. This person knew too little.
"D-level assassins? Could there be A, B, and C?" Jiang Youzhen guessed.
"That's right! Class D is the lowest level of assassins in the organization. As someone who was recruited from outside, I don't know the rules of the organization very well. I heard that they are divided according to factors such as the level of missions completed. Class A are very powerful assassins who rarely fail."
Jiang Youzhen nodded, very curious about this mysterious red door.
"What else do you know? Tell me all of it. If you can satisfy me, I will spare your life."
The man recalled carefully for a long time and was about to shake his head when he saw Jiang Youzhen looking at him ferociously, with the whip in his hand ready to move.
He said hurriedly and anxiously: "He only asked me to follow one person before, and then I followed the clues and found this place, and he asked me to keep an eye on this place every day."
Jiang Youzhen and Asan looked at each other and understood the meaning in each other's eyes.
"So what news did you report?" Jiang Youzhen asked.
The man shook his head suddenly, "I've only been watching this place for two days, and I didn't find anything unusual."
Asan was immediately glad. In fact, when they reported the meeting, they took advantage of the large crowds of people and dressed up as ordinary people to let them come in through the tofu shop in front.
"Where did the person you were following go before?" Asan was eager to know who was so careless to be followed.
"That person has been eyeing a house in Wuliu Lane in the south of the city. I wanted to find out more, but the order from the higher-ups only allowed me to follow him and not to worry about the place he was eyeing."
Wuliu Lane in the south of the city? Ah San and Jiang Youzhen were both shocked. This was where Huang Mintao's house was located.
Could it be that Huang Mintao discovered that someone was following him and asked someone from Hongmen to deal with it?
This is a bit strange. If Huang Mintao has a clear conscience, why would he look for the people from Hongmen? But if he really has some secrets, why didn't the people behind the scenes take action, but instead went to Hongmen?
Could he have some connection with the Red Gate? Jiang Youzhen had already fallen into deep thought.
When this person saw Jiang Youzhen looking thoughtful, he did not dare to disturb him, even though he was very scared.
So they asked these two good-for-nothings to solve the problem? No matter what, Huang Mintao definitely didn't know that he was the one behind Ah San.
"What should we do with this person?" Even though Asan couldn't bear it any more, he understood that if this person was released, both he and Jiang Youzhen would be in danger of being exposed.
"Of course it has been resolved." Jiang Youzhen said without raising his head.
She spoke calmly, as if she was used to this kind of behavior. Ah San was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
"Then let me do it!" He is indeed kind-hearted, but having suffered the fickleness of human nature since childhood, once his heart is hardened, he will never be soft-hearted.
Jiang Youzhen was very surprised, she looked up at him.
"No need for you. You don't have to get involved in such muddy water. Just get information, don't get involved in these things." Jiang Youzhen didn't want to force Asan to do these things. She had already adapted to it, but Asan still had some resistance.
"We have been on the same boat for a long time. Even if I want to get information, can I stay out of it?"
As he spoke, he drew the dagger from his body. The man saw Ah San walking towards him with the dagger in his hand, looking a little nervous but determined, and he immediately understood his intention.
He opened his eyes wide and was about to shout for help, but Jiang Yi covered his mouth with his hands and stuffed the rag back into his mouth.
Asan stepped forward and stabbed the man in the chest with a knife. The man just opened his eyes wide, and stopped breathing after a moment.
His eyes that could not be closed made Ah San tremble with fear, and he dared not look at them. Jiang Li and the others were also nervous, but they were martial artists and had been trained to fight animals, so they quickly adapted.
Jiang Li walked forward and closed the man's eyes, then walked aside and waited for Jiang Youzhen's order.
"You go first, I'll take care of things here." Jiang Youzhen ordered.
"After returning to the yard, we replaced a group of people to defend, and the one who went to monitor Huang Mintao..."
Asan's heart immediately rose to his throat when he heard this. He knew that only the dead could keep secrets, but this was too cruel.
"Send him out of the capital! Give him money, the farther the better, and tell him not to come back." Jiang Youzhen sighed.
Others were doing things for her, and she couldn't be so heartless after all.
"From now on, these brothers can gather information, but if they want to monitor and track the target, leave it to Jiang Li and the others!"
Jiang Youzhen said this while looking at Jiang Li and Jiang Yi. These two were the most stable among them and had the best talent in martial arts.
"It takes a thousand days to raise an army, but only a moment to deploy it. Now it is time for you to go out. We will know who is capable of great use after a trial."
Jiang Youzhen's eyes were like sharp arrows. These young men were the ones who were finally selected. It would depend on their own abilities from now on.
"From now on, you are members of the Linglong Organization."
Jiang Li and Jiang Yi were both very excited. They felt bored with practicing martial arts every day and wanted to go out and carry out missions.
What's more, they have an organization, and both of them are eager to try, just waiting to show their skills.
"What are you going to do with these two bodies?" Asan was worried about Jiang Youzhen's safety.
"I will handle it myself. You guys go first! In case someone from the Red Gate comes over later."
After persuading Asan and the others to leave, Jiang Youzhen temporarily put the two corpses into the storage space, then fetched water to clean the house, and then returned home under the cover of night.
Before leaving, Asan and the others had already given Jiang Youzhen the address of the new courtyard. During this period of time, except for following Huang Mintao and Kong Chengling, everyone else had to lie low for the time being.
The next day, Jiang Youzhen went to the Hanlin Academy early in the morning.
After Huang Mintao arrived, Jiang Youzhen returned his file to him.
"Thank you, Master Huang. I'm afraid I've delayed your work."
"Where?" Huang Mintao opened the file and took a look. He found that it was his own handwriting, so he put it away.
Jiang Youzhen couldn't help but smile as he watched him put the file into the small bookcase he carried with him every day, showing no intention of reading it immediately.
