Chapter 846 Confirmation

It was already dark, and I sent Emily home. At the door of my house, Emily said to me: "I am very happy today."

"Come here often if you like. Everyone welcomes you."

She gave a soft 'hmm' and entered the house.

After leaving her house, I didn’t go back directly. Instead, I walked to the door of Ren’s tree house and leaned on the door to listen.

Two minutes passed, and there was no sound in the room. Then I knocked on the door a few times with my hand, and then pushed the door open and entered.

Sure enough, Ren didn't sleep, but sat on the sofa, lowering his head and drawing something.

"What's this?"

"Map" Ren said.

"Where?"

"The Elf Palace."

I was surprised when I heard this: "You explored all the Elf Palace?"

"No," Ren said as he drew, "I have only drawn a small part, and there is still a large part of the space that has not been explored."

Walking closer, I stared at the picture for a long time and praised: "You are indeed the most professional if you can understand the structure of the Elf Palace to this extent without anyone noticing."

"It's not the 'best', it's normal to be professional." He said lightly: "This is what I do for a living. If I were not professional, I would have starved to death long ago."

I nodded and looked around the room: "Where are the children?"

"In the Elf Forest," Ren said, "I'm training them how to lurk in the forest."

"When will they come back?"

"I won't come back," Ren said, "at least not in the next few days."

"Are you going to let them live in the forest for the next few days?"

"Yes," Ren said, "As an assassin, you must have this awareness."

"You are really a strict teacher."

"Strictly not," Ren said, "I just don't want to be punished by you in the future because my subordinates don't do things well."

I smiled and didn't answer.

After a moment of silence, I said, "I came here today to ask for your help."

"I thought of it," Ren said, "What's the matter?"

"I want you to help me verify whether Ai Rui City has issued a wanted order for Rodney."

"Okay," said Ren, without raising his head, he continued painting.

"When will I come to hear the answer?"

"Tomorrow" Renn put down his pen and rubbed his eyes: "You can come anytime tomorrow and I will tell you anytime."

"Thank you."

After saying thank you, I looked around the room again. The room was still messy, with empty wine bottles piled in the corners. Only a few bottles of wine were hidden under the table where Ren was drawing pictures.

"What else do you need?" I asked, "Money, or something?"

"I have the money," Ren said, "You already know the rest."

"No problem, I'll bring the others tomorrow, and I'll give you the money for an extra portion."

Ren didn't say anything and waved to me. I exited the room and closed the door.

Walking on the road, I kept comparing Ren and Jin Siqi. The former is strong and capable. Many tasks have been prepared without any arrangement. He can be regarded as a role model among his subordinates. The latter has average strength and average ability and only He knew that he was playing some little conspiracy in front of me and coveting the power for a while, which was a type of greed and value.

The reason why I promised to give Ren more money even though he didn't need it is because people like him will either refuse to be loyal throughout their lives, but once they become loyal, they will definitely be loyal men who risk their lives.

Jin Siqi, on the other hand, is completely different from Ren. As long as the price is enough, she can rebel at any time. Of course, the premise is that the other party can guarantee her life safety.

People like Jin Siqi are very realistic. They are the most numerous people in Zephyr Continent and the kind of people who have lived the longest in Zephyr Continent. However, such people live very unhappy lives. They are always evaluating their own future. The price always depends on the buyer's face, and you can't live up to yourself.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh and feel sad for Jin Siqi.

When I got home and lay on the sofa, I started thinking about what I should do tomorrow. After thinking about it, I fell asleep.

When I opened my eyes again, it was already dawn.

After a day of hunting monsters and a long discussion with Emily, on the way home, I once again took Emily to my house for dinner.

Cagalli secretly gave me a thumbs up, her joy was beyond words.

I laughed twice, and then said to Emily, Phoenix and the others: "I have something to do. You have to eat with them first, don't wait for me."

With that said, I quickly walked out of the house and went straight to the pub.

I bought five cases of the best wine and sent it to Renn's tree house with the tavern staff. After paying and sending them away, I knocked on the door of Renn's house.

When he saw boxes of the best wine stacked in the room, Renn's eyes lit up. He chuckled and said, "If you join politics, you will have a better future than being an adventurer."

"I'm not good at lying."

"Lying is just a form of self-protection," Ren said. "Besides, if you tell a lie, it must be difficult to expose it."

"Why?"

"Because you look and talk like a good old man."

I curled my lips, a little helpless, then paused, sighed again, and said, "Although your words hit me hard, I have to admit that you are right."

After that, I took out a bag of gold coins from my pocket and put it on the table.

Renn didn't count, put the gold coins directly into the drawer, and then handed me a piece of paper.

He took the paper and unfolded it. There were a few words written on it: Rodney's wanted order is true, and the wanted amount is one hundred gold coins.

Seeing this, I breathed a sigh of relief: It seems that Jin Siqi has not done anything crazy for the position of president, but at the same time, I am worried about Rodney. One hundred gold coins, this is not a small amount. Many wandering adventurers and rogue adventurers will definitely do whatever it takes to get the money. After all, such people have no principles.

Renn sneered and said: "It is a huge irony that the descendants of legendary heroes are wanted by their own father and brother."

"Descendants of legendary heroes are also human beings, and humans have desires. Strong desires will drive their actions and thoughts, and do things that ordinary people think are very cruel."

"That's my biological son," Ren said coldly, "The ferocious beast won't eat his own child!"

"Don't insult the ferocious beast like this." I opened the box, took out two bottles of wine, handed one to Ren, opened the cork, and took a sip of wine. I felt a sweet and spicy feeling in my throat. It was so good that I let out a cry unconsciously. Trembling, he continued: "They are just a group of zombies driven by desire."

"What are you going to do with that Rodney?" Ren asked me after swallowing his drink.

"He is my friend, of course I have to protect him," I said hehely, "and he also plays a very important role to me."
