Chapter 92

The tattered boat did not fall apart, but it arrived smoothly under the impetus of the recovered Tang En Blood Qi the shore.Jack saw Tang En's whole body in a mess, so naturally he wouldn't say anything more, so he hurriedly said goodbye as soon as he handed over a scene like we'll meet again some day.
After saying goodbye to Jack, Tang En shivered shivered. The night wind in winter is no joke. It is not much different from a knife when it blows on the wet body.
Fortunately, although Tang En looked embarrassed, he was actually not injured. The most serious thing on his body was the sword qi that was penetrated by the Hidden Sword more than ten times. However, after sword qi invaded the body, it was neutralized by Blood Qi, and the rest was just some superficial wounds.
Tang En did not take a taxi, but chose to walk home, his mind is a little confused now...
Ghost Face turned out to be his dead neighbor Beth...Tang At this moment, En remembered the horror paintings of flesh and blood he saw when he first met Bess. And what Beth said at the time, "I can't draw because I've never seen them." So, doesn't he see these often? I didn't expect it at the time...
And when I came out of Auston Castle, I was taught a lesson by the Ghost Face unfathomable mystery, saying that I had done something too much... think about it Before I kissed and pinched Becky, this was for the younger sister...
Tang En touched his nose, thinking that he was living under the eyelids of the first Assassin in Black Rock City, There was a chill.
After half an hour, Tang En came to his attic.
Standing for a while, Tang En still walked to the front of Beth's house first, pushed the door, squeak...
The door was not locked, just pushed it open, inside the house. There were no lights, it was pitch black.
However, you can vaguely see that the structure of the house is somewhat similar to Tang En's loft, hall, stairs, guest room. The difference is that there are many easels in this hall.
Taking a few steps forward, Tang En suddenly felt his toes touch something.
Suddenly startled in my heart, I spin and fly back.
"You're here..." A very faint voice came, and then an oil lamp came on.
Tang En squinted his eyes and saw Beth lying on the stairs with a gray face, a pool of blood beside him.
On the floor of the hall lies a silhouette of black clothed, black face towel and dagger in hand. It is obviously an Assassin, but it looks like he has been dead for a while.
"Sure enough, it's you, Ghost Face!" Tang En dug out dagger said solemnly. Faced with this prestigious Assassin, anyone will be nervous. Although he looks like he is not far from death, Tang En believes that if he violently kills, there are not many people who can escape in Black Rock City. .
"Hehe, don't be nervous, just call me Bess. Or... um, how to put it, an otaku who plays art..." Bes lightly said with a smile.
"Eh..." Tang En touched his nose embarrassedly, an otaku who plays art, this is what he and Lena often say when joking about their neighbors, "You know I'll come?"
"Well, you seem to be interested in me recently..." Beth replied casually, then pointed to the side and said, "How about helping me see this painting?"
Uh...Tang En looked over inexplicably, and there was a piece of drawing paper fixed on the drawing board about two feet long, which depicted a large group of people walking on the street. Some people shouted in anger, some showed sadness in their eyes, some raised their arms and roared... Everyone's image and demeanor are lifelike, and you can almost hear their cries when you stand in front of the painting.
Walking in the center of the crowd and the center of the drawing board are two women. Oh, that's Joah and Lena. Bass's painting skills are really good, other people Tang En don't know, but these two people's appearance, clothes and expressions match his impression, they are perfect.
Of course, the most precious thing about this painting is not the authenticity of the artist, but something that can pass through the paper, um, the spirit conveyed by the artist.
"Very good! Great!" Tang En said sincerely.
"Haha, that's good!" Bass seemed very satisfied.
Tang En licked his lips and couldn't help but ask, "Is it you who asked Ellen to send me that letter?"
"Not bad!"
"Why?"
"cough cough..." Bass shook violently a few times, then carelessly wiped the blood from his mouth, "I have observed you, your Camouflage is the best I've ever seen, it can help me get the ledger...cough cough, don't talk about that, I'm running out of time, I'm waiting for you to ask for your help."
"Help?" Tang En said in surprise.
"en." Bass said, holding out a colorful dagger, "I want you to do something very simple, just use it for my last ride."
" What?" Tang En was shocked, he expected various answers, but he never thought that what Beth asked for was to kill him.
Seemingly expecting Tang En's surprise, Bass pointed to Assassin on the ground and explained: "I have to die by assassination, and letting these Assassins do it has really defiled me. Doing it yourself may reveal a weak spot, think about it. You are the only acquaintances, and you are the best."
Fuck, you are trying to find acquaintances... Tang En snorted and spread his hands: "I am not a murderer, You are not my Quest target, and I have no grudge against you, so I can't help you with this."
"cough cough..." Beth spat out a small mouthful of blood, frowned, "You don't want to? Don't worry. , I won't let you do it in vain. I left something for you on the desk on the second floor, even if you helped me with the account book last time and the reward for killing me this time."
"Uh... It's not a question of compensation."
"Do you want me to do it myself..." Bass lowered his head and muttered, then raised his head, "If you have time, help me take care of Becky... um, Bevin... ..."
"Uh, what do you want to do?" Tang En asked warily.
"Haha..." Beth let out a long laugh, his face suddenly flushed like a flash of light, "Death!" Tang En's Heart.
Fuck...Tang En subconsciously flicked his wrist, and the red thread pulled out instantly.
Ding...
Not good! Tang En only felt a huge shock in his wrist, and his right hand involuntarily was punched away with great force, and then something seemed to be stuffed into his left hand, stabbing...
pu!
Beth looked up, grinned, closed her eyes contentedly, and fell back.
Tang En let go of the colorful dagger and hugged Bass.
Bess was already a Condition that was running out of fuel before. He had just forced his force, and now a dagger was inserted into his heart, so naturally he couldn't survive.
It seemed that he was relieved. There was no pain on his face, and he was full of serenity.
Tang En looked at it with a complicated expression for a moment, then looked the head slurred: "Fake, what's this called..."
He picked up the bass and put it to one side After a little silence on the chair, Tang En began to clean up his traces and prepared to exit the attic.
But then he stopped and walked upstairs.
Bess had apparently cleaned up before, and he had very little left in his bedroom, a simple bed, and a wooden table.
There is a yellowed book on the table next to a shimmering oil lamp.
Tang En stepped forward to open the book...
