Chapter 823 Sonata of Death

A little interlude dismissed Victor who realized something was wrong and stepped forward to ask. Tang En and Joshua continued chatting and strolling along this main commercial road.

"Tang, your temper seems to be getting better and better now."

"Oh? Haha, you are now a master. Of course you must have the demeanor of a master. If you compete with some ordinary little characters, you can't afford to lose that person." Tang En smoothed his hair and put on the most lonely look of a master. .

"Really..." Joshua blinked, "Are you sure it's not Lianxiangxiyu?"

"Uh... I'll go!" Tang En opened his mouth with a pause in his arms, his eyes dazed, and his image of a master instantly collapsed without a trace. Then he stroked his forehead and said with a smile on his face, "Comrade Xiao Qiao, you can ignore my character, but you can't insult my taste! Although the assassin just now put on some disguise, his actual age and identity is that of an aunt. My You don’t know the taste yet? This is too strong..."

Of course, this was just a joke. After going on, Tang En briefly explained, "People die for money, and birds die for food. Such assassins are like crucian carp crossing the river. They can't kill them all. The best situation is to kill a few. A ruthless character, scare off most of the minor characters, and finally carry out unified cleaning... Well, if everything goes well, the situation will be much better."

Killing the chicken to scare the monkeys was Tang En's plan. It’s nothing new, but it’s quick in results and short in cycle time.

Nodding slightly, Joshua suddenly looked a little confused, as if he didn't care about these things, and he seemed to have absolute confidence in Tang En. He lowered his eyes slightly and said a little abruptly: "But, my temper seems to be getting worse..."

"kindness?"

"Maybe it's not as simple as my temper, but my nature is constantly changing. Or maybe it's the ugly things that are constantly being exposed..." He stretched out his palm. White and jade-like under the light. Josiah raised the corner of his mouth slightly and laughed at himself, "Do you believe it? With just a slight movement of these hands and this mouth, countless people will die, regardless of whether they are good or bad, loyal or traitorous, regardless of their will..."

Tang En turned his head and thought for a while. He said seriously: "This is war."

"Some are not." Shaking his head slightly, Josiah pointed to the city in front of him and said calmly, "For example, in order to stabilize the situation as soon as possible a few days ago, I gave an order after entering the city not to take prisoners. Anyone who hides Bran soldiers is guilty of the same crime. ! Haha, killing prisoners is a war, but what about the ordinary people who provide hiding places for Bran's soldiers? You must know that the homes of most of the garrison soldiers are in this city, so of course the parents have to hide their sons, and of course the wife has to hide them. Hiding the husband... But there is no other way. What should I do? The order has been given. If we take it back, it will chill the hearts of our soldiers. We can only kill and keep killing..."

Taking a deep breath, holding the palm handed over by Tang En, Joshua raised his head and blinked and asked, "Tang, do you think this is also a war?"

Tang En did not answer. In fact, there was no need to answer. Tang En believed that Joshua could understand the relationship between them. No matter how bad the situation was, he could selectively forget and ignore it. This was not cold-blooded, but the necessary reason for a leader. The reason why I mention it now is just because of my own existence. The seven emotions and six desires are human nature. The stronger you are in front of outsiders, the more defenseless and even weak you are in front of acquaintances. This is a matter of self-regulation and balance. Therefore, Tang En just tightened Josiah's palm and listened quietly.

Sure enough, after a moment, "Ha, look at me, I was obviously out shopping, but now I'm mentioning such a boring thing..." Taking a breath and shrugging, Josiah smiled apologetically, as if he just talked casually.

"It's okay, um..." Tang En naturally wouldn't expose it. He looked around, pointed at a tall statue in the distance, and changed the topic, "I'm a little curious, how did you deal with those magicians? All of them? killed?"

"What? Oh, the church, of course we won't kill them all." Josiah looked up at the towering statue of the God of Light in the distance and smiled slyly, "You know those magicians are the best. Of course, all trauma therapists will be sent to the army."

"Understood, just recycle waste."

"Ha, that's it. There is also the statue. I originally wanted to tear it down immediately after entering the city, but in order to take care of the psychological feelings of the citizens in the city, I will keep it for now... Let me tell you secretly, we plan to borrow Bran in a few days. Destroy it in the name of a deserter, so as not to look at it all day long, ha..."

The feud between the Gray Army and the Temple of Light has grown. Now that they have the opportunity to take revenge, they will naturally find ways to return it. This is the reason why Tang En has never caused trouble to the Temple of Light after he killed him in Holy Light City. He knew that after the gray-clothed army came out, they would completely clear out the foundation of the Temple of Light. This would be more effective than killing a few people. many.

After chatting for a few words, Josiah's mood quickly adjusted. When he looked up, he happened to arrive in front of a large clothing store with three facades. He glanced over and saw that all kinds of women's clothes were hanging or placed inside, with colorful and dazzling arrays. It seems very tempting for people to go in and spend money, especially women.

Looking up at the store's sign, Joshua nodded clearly: "No wonder, it turns out to be Feng Karen's women's clothing store."

Tang En naturally didn't do much research on women's clothing, but as a killer who needed to know a little bit about everything, he also knew that Feng Karen was one of the top brands of women's clothing in the other world. He spread his hands and said, "Go in and take a look?"

There are women in this world who like to torture their wallets and vent their emotions through shopping sprees. Tang En decided to copy it and put it on Joshua to see the effect.

"Yes." Joshua did not refuse, nodded and walked in with Tang En. After the guards at the rear divided their duties, Victor followed with a few people.

The store is very large, and the decoration is exquisite and elegant. There is even a pianist playing the piano in one corner. The music is soothing and pleasant, and the atmosphere is quite good. But relatively speaking, there are not many guests here. A few idle young waiters gathered beside the door and chatted about something. It seemed a bit quiet and deserted.

Seeing Tang En and Joshua coming in, a waitress stepped forward to welcome him with a professional smile. However, when she saw the fully armed Victor and others coming up from behind, they were immediately stunned. , a look of hesitation and fear flashed across his face.

Those who can still wear armor in today's Shanhai City are naturally only gray-clad soldiers. Although the performance of the Gray Army was pretty good after entering the city, for ordinary citizens. Naturally, it’s best to keep a distance if we don’t interact with each other.

Tang En waved his hand carelessly when he saw this. "I'll call you if necessary." The waitress breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. He bowed politely and quickly stepped aside.

The chatting topic of the waiters just now seemed to be the Gray Army. Now that the real owner came to the door, it was natural and wise to shut up. For a while, the only thing that could be heard in the store was the extremely soothing music, which added a bit of elegance and tranquility to the atmosphere.

However, although the environment was quiet, the eye-catching Victor and others looked like sharks breaking into the shallow stream. Some guests' expressions suddenly changed when they saw it. Several people left in a hurry immediately.

Those who can spend money here are naturally wealthy, wealthy or noble people. At present, it is this group of people who are most afraid of the Gray Army in the city. Let’s not talk about how far away it is, let’s just say that the signboard inviting the people to vote to try the nobles who have committed evil crimes is still erected on every street...

Fortunately, the shop's facade is indeed big enough. Josiah and Tang En are only moving on one side, which does not disturb all the customers. Otherwise, the shop owner and the waiters may be very depressed.

Tang En and Joshua have seen this kind of situation many times along the way, so naturally they don't care about it. It's just that every time Joshua enters the store, he buys something. It's a kind of secret compensation, and this time is no exception.

"How about this one?" Josiah picked up a simple and elegant black cotton top. He turned around and asked.

Tang En did not rush to answer, but raised his eyebrows and asked, "You seem to only like pure colors? I see that most of your clothes are like this."

He tilted his head and thought for a while, "Is there any? Well, maybe it's because I wear too many magic robes, haha... Why, this one doesn't look good?"

"How is that possible? It's very beautiful!" Tang En gave a thumbs up without hesitation. Some people are born to dress up, such as Joshua. It's just that she used to wear long robes, which concealed her slim figure. Nowadays, the concept seems to have changed. From robes and long skirts to simple clothes, it is a little less simple and a little more mature and capable.

"Really?" Women have always been unable to resist compliments, especially when the compliment comes from the person they like. Josiah was no exception. Although her tone was questioning, her slightly narrowed smile still revealed her happy mood.

"Of course!" Tang En touched his chin and looked up and down again, "But the size of this dress seems to be a little smaller, and it still lacks a pair of matching trousers... Um, waiter?" He raised his hand and snapped his fingers to invite someone waiting aside. Long time waiter.

After knowing the problem, the young waitress respectfully replied: "Dear guest, please rest assured. Our store has a complete range of sizes for all types of clothing. Even if it is out of stock, it can be urgently transferred from other places to meet all your needs. As for With pants, if you don’t mind, I can ask the resident designer to give you some advice.”

Tang En nodded with satisfaction: "Thank you, that's it. Let's try a bigger size of top first, and then hire the designer. By the way, the changing room here..."

"plz follow me."

After all, it is a high-end store. The place to change clothes is not just a curtain, but a long row of cubicles at the back of the store, which looks very impressive.

At this time, there were several men waiting here, and it was obvious that their female companions were changing clothes inside. But women, of course, can't change clothes any faster, so these men can only gather together and chat casually. However, after seeing Tang En and others, especially Victor and others who were following them, their words suddenly stopped, and their expressions changed drastically, and they backed away. They thought that if there were not female companions here, they would immediately choose leave.

Scanning around like a hawk, Victor couldn't help but frown. This was a women's dressing room after all, so it was not appropriate to check them one by one. And if there were people inside, it would be difficult for him to get in. But if you don’t check it, it’s even more impossible. In short, it's all that damn guy's fault...

Staring at Tang En again, Victor put on a stern face, ready to risk his face to check one by one. But at this time, Josiah shook his head this way, obviously indicating that they should not get closer.

After a slight hesitation, Victor was about to continue insisting. The waitress had already changed into a larger-sized top. Upon seeing this, Tang En casually pushed open a compartment and glanced around. The space was not too big or too small. A long mirror and a seat. It's clear at a glance, that's all.

He bowed and waved his hand in an inviting gesture, "Please, beautiful lady." "Haha..." Josiah walked into the compartment with the clothes, turned around and smiled at Tang En, and closed the wooden door.

"Your Excellency, if you have no other requirements, I will ask the designer to come over now..."

"No rush." ​​Waving his hand, Tang En said calmly, "Did you just say that this place can meet all the needs of the guests?"

"Yes, as long as there is a need for clothing..."

Shaking his head, "It has nothing to do with clothes, but you should be able to do it. Well, this piano player is good, can I order a piece of music?" Tang En asked, placing his index finger next to his ear and circling it, gesturing to the soothing piano tune.

"Ah?" The waitress was stunned when she heard this. She obviously didn't expect such a demand. When she realized it, she looked a little weird and nodded, "Of course, which song is it?"

"Thank you, just order the Death Sonata. Here's your tip."

"Okay, thanks... eh?" The palm that took the tip paused in the air. The waitress looked up blankly, looked at Tang En's indifferent expression, and blinked in disbelief, "Yes, I'm sorry, I may... maybe I heard Wrong, which song were you talking about just now?"

"Sonata of Death, thank you!"
