Chapter 69: Léon the Professional (2) (1/5)



Someone wants to kill you now.

Forget it, it is still difficult to kill with the host's current strength.

However, 06's news was still quite useful. After it brought the news, the quaint and low-key castle that Lin Su had just taken care of was hit by assassinations again and again.

He is the Earl of the Wicker Empire, so naturally those killers would not use such blatant means as explosions. After all, it is not a profitable deal to anger an entire country for one person.

Lin Su walked in the corridor. When he first came here, the city wall was indeed covered with vines and weeds, but after clearing the weeds, only beautiful vines were left, like a natural green barrier, hiding the beautiful wall. The looming appearance actually added to the mystery.

"My Lord Earl." A maid passed by and greeted him, holding freshly washed cups and plates.

In this era, people are no longer judged by status, but by money. Of course, it is not easy to find a safe place where you can live a stable life in this era.

Lin Su smiled and nodded, passing her.

The maid who was walking forward stopped and looked at his back, a slight blush on her cheeks.

She knew that she was not the only one who admired the new Earl, because he had an extremely attractive appearance, very standard gentlemanly etiquette, as well as outstanding abilities and a strong financial situation.

They were also newly recruited into the castle, but were unconsciously attracted to him.

The maid left reluctantly only after his back disappeared.

The maids in the castle are not directly under the management of Lin Su, but of a newly appointed butler.

This butler was not as neat and tidy as the others in the castle. He was so thin that he was almost skin and bones, and his slightly bulging eyes revealed a certain obvious shrewdness.

Abu was the first subordinate Lin Su recruited when he was doing business at the transit station. He did not look at the appearance of the people but only at their abilities.

Abu, who was wearing an ill-fitting butler uniform, stared at the maids standing in a row with his eyes. His gaze swept unscrupulously from their beautiful faces to their exquisite bodies, making all the maids lower their heads and turn pale.

I don't understand why a man as elegant as the Count would ask such a wretched person to be the steward of this castle.

After Abu finished scanning everyone, he chuckled and swaggered onto the chair opposite. "They're all good-looking, and they're all relying on their beauty to have improper desires for the Earl. They're dreaming of becoming a Countess and soaring to fame, right?"

He slammed the table, causing the maids to shudder. "I'm telling you, you'll have to give up these thoughts sooner or later, or I won't show mercy when I kick you out. Of course," he chuckled, "if you're willing to marry me, I'd be happy to do so."

The maids all lowered their heads and remained silent.

He waved his hand without much interest and said, "Alright, let's get back to work."

The maids scattered and whether they could remember these words depended on what they thought in their hearts.

Late at night, Lin Su unhooked his cufflinks and placed them in a special storage cabinet. He also took off his watch and tie clip, leaving only his shirt and trousers with the collar loosened. He walked into the bathroom barefoot. But just as he rolled up his sleeves and was about to fill the bathtub, he heard a gentle female voice behind him: "My Lord Earl, do you want to take a bath? Let us do it."

"Thank you." Lin Su made way for the door.

The innocent-looking maid blushed as she removed her shoes and socks, revealing her fair, slender, and beautiful legs. She rolled up her sleeves and used the showerhead to clean the inside of the bathtub. However, she seemed unable to bear Lin Su's scrutiny from the doorway. She blushed and said, "My Lord, although this is for your personal use, it's still best to disinfect it before use. Please wait."

She bent over and worked seriously. Just when she had arranged everything and was about to leave, her feet suddenly slipped and she fell towards Lin Su's position.

Lin Su reached out his hand to catch her, and the two of them collided hard, but the next moment the originally gentle maid raised her head with a slightly distorted expression. When her body was gently pushed away by Lin Su, her right hand holding the dagger was squeezed so hard that it made a crackling sound and almost broke.

"Without flexible fingers, it will not be so convenient to kill people in the future." Lin Su said lightly.

"You know?" The maid's gentle eyes turned into fierceness. She raised her leg and wanted to hit Lin Su's vitals, but was mercilessly pressed to the ground by Lin Su's raised leg. The shower head that was taken off at some point strangled his neck. With just a little force, this living life would leave this beautiful world.

Lin Su maintained this posture and smiled, "Of course I know. I also know that you are not a girl, but a boy. But you don't know that I don't like women. If you use your true appearance to seduce me, maybe I will take the bait."

"You!" The disguised female voice had turned into a clear male voice, "When did you know?"

"The Hidden Destruction really has a thousand faces. No matter what appearance it pretends to be, no one can tell. But I'm sorry, I have some knowledge of medicine, and I can still tell the bones of a man from a woman." When Lin Su tied the man tightly with the rope of the shower head, a man rushed in.

Abu looked at the man lying on the ground, soaked in water, rubbed his hands, and said, "Boss, are you okay? Is this the killer?"

"Well, lock him up and use the latest electric grid lock. Otherwise, this trick of replacing the original with the fake one will get away sooner or later." Lin Su threw his hands away and said with a smile, "They should only use this method once. There is no need to keep a close eye on the maid."

Although it is said that the most dangerous place is the safest place, when everyone knows this truth, this safe path is no longer safe.

"I failed, but sooner or later you will die." said the boy lying on the ground.

Abu slapped him on the back of the head without showing any mercy: "What nonsense are you talking about? You are defeated."

"It's okay. Don't hurt him. He still has some use." Lin Su looked at the man carried by Abu and said, "Didn't you know before you came that I had escaped death from Tang's hands?"

The boy's eyes widened visibly: "This is impossible!"

There is no misstep in Don's hands.

"You are a liar!" The young man was still shouting, but was knocked unconscious by Lin Su's knife.

Abu reminded: "Boss, don't break it, it's worth using."

"If he yells loudly, everyone in the castle will know about it tomorrow." Lin Su said with a smile, "Bring me a new shower head tomorrow."

"No problem." Abu smiled and left.

The rule of Destruction is that only one killer will be sent at a time. This is their confidence in their subordinates, and they have always been successful in the past, but unfortunately, they all suffer a Waterloo when they meet Lin Su.
