Chapter 0007: The Heroic Guest Adds 1

"You actually killed him!" Shen Lian suddenly grabbed Chen Hao's shoulder and roared loudly. At that moment, he didn't even care to ask what the mysterious 'firearm' in his cousin's hand was.

Chen Hao sighed helplessly, noting that although Shen Lian was good in every aspect, he always hesitated at critical moments

"Pistol." He silently recited in his heart, and the pistol from the storage space instantly appeared in his hand

This place is the residence of the painter Hokusai. Chen Hao found it through the rumors of local thugs in the city. He is here waiting for someone, and that person is Ling Yunkai, whom Chen Hao intends to kill

"Host, you have never looked at your storage space, where there are items from your previous life!" the Heroic System prompted.

Chen Hao greeted Shen Lian but ignored Ling Yunkai. He felt that Ling Yunkai was quite ruthless; they had not known each other yesterday, yet today he called out his name. This was surely a prelude to retaliation, and thus Chen Hao had one more reason to eliminate him

Shen Lian

Chen Hao was hiding outside the window, eavesdropping on the intense argument between Shen Lian and Ling Yunkai inside the room. It seemed that Ling Yunkai was accusing Shen Lian of secretly colluding with the rebel party. Chen Hao did not rush in; he was waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity where he could kill Ling Yunkai without Shen Lian blaming him.

Clang

Alas! Shen Lian kicked over the stool beside him; how could he not see through this reasoning!

The figure in question is Chen Hao. While the three of them are observing him, he is also observing them: Shen Lian, Ling Yunkai, and a beautiful young girl named Beihai.

Meanwhile, a notification sound echoed in Chen Hao's mind: "Kill one lowly villain, +1 Hero Points"

Chen Hao waited for the two to enter for a short while before he slowly walked into the small courtyard, stopping outside the window of the eastern room of the northern studio, which was the room where the northern studio resided.

Chen Hao eagerly caressed the gun in his hand, with it in his possession, killing Ling Yunkai would be as easy as flipping a hand

The bullet swiftly penetrated Ling Yunkai's skull, creating a brilliant splash of blood, and Ling Yunkai lay rigidly on the ground, unable to believe until his death that Chen Hao truly dared to kill him

Step, step, step

Bang

The sudden sound did not startle Chen Hao, as he recognized it to be the voice of the Hero System

Is it here? Chen Hao felt a surge of joy in his heart, as the visitors were none other than Shen Lian and Ling Yunkai. The two of them paused for a moment in front of the small courtyard before entering.

Dear host, why do you not use your trump card when encountering problems? At that moment, a voice echoed in Chen Hao's mind

Chen Hao was already quite adept at using the hero system. He quickly summoned his storage space with his mind, and instantly, a storage cabinet of 1 cubic meter appeared in his mind, containing three items: a wallet, a set of keys, and surprisingly, a handgun.

Shen Lian secretly communicates with the rebel party, thinking you are in my grasp... Do you really think that Ling is afraid of you...

The sky in July resembles the face of a young girl, changing at a moment's notice; just moments ago, the crescent moon was shining, and in the blink of an eye, a torrential downpour ensued

It is even less likely for Shen Lian to kill alongside him. Shen Lian's killing of Ling Yunkai was also an accidental murder; he certainly does not have the courage to kill Ling Yunkai openly and boldly

Subsequently, Lu Wenzhao assigned a task to Ling Yunkai, instructing him to kill the painter Hokusai. Hokusai was a painter who often included poems and writings of the Donglin Party in his artworks, subtly mocking the court's politics. Even more audaciously, he dared to slander Wei Zhongxian, prompting the Eastern Depot to issue a lethal order.

"Changqing, what brings you here!" Shen Lian exclaimed

With Ling Yunkai's words, the room fell silent in an instant. Shen Lian was terrified. Who is Wei Zhongxian? He is the head of the Eastern Depot, nine thousand nine hundred years old, second only to one person and above ten thousand others. Shen Lian never expected that Ling Yunkai was actually Wei Zhongxian's nephew

"It is you, Shen Changqing. Do your brothers wish to kill officials and rebel?" Ling Yunkai was initially taken aback, but soon regained his composure; after all, he was the nephew of Wei Zhongxian, who would dare to touch him

You speak so well, why do you run so fast

The beautiful eyes of the young Hokusai flashed as she thought it was someone sent by the Prince to rescue her, but when Shen Lian called out a name, Hokusai's gaze dimmed once again

Haha, you want the Book of Impermanence? It's too late!" Ling Yunkai let out a cold laugh and said, "Shen Lian, you and your brothers have colluded with the rebels, intending to kill your colleagues. This is simply a heinous crime. I will definitely present the Book of Impermanence to Lord Wei. You, as a parasite within the Jinyiwei, should also be dealt with.

"Mr. Ling, my brothers and I only wish to make a living. As long as you hand over the Book of Impermanence to me, we will not interfere with each other!" Shen Lian nodded to Chen Hao, then spoke to Ling Yunkai, his tone even somewhat obsequious.

For Chen Hao, who is well-versed in the plot, today is the best opportunity to kill Ling Yunkai

A faint sound of footsteps suddenly came from the nearby path. If it weren't for Chen Hao's focused attention, he might not have heard it. He quickly hid behind a large tree, cautiously observing the situation. He saw two members of the Jinyiwei, clad in raincoats, walking towards the small courtyard of the North Studio.

Night

Chen Hao stood under a dense tree holding an oil-paper umbrella, and in front of him was a secluded small courtyard

The heavy rain poured down from the sky as if the heavens had collapsed, with thunder rolling and producing a tremendous roar that echoed through the world. As the rain intensified, streaks of lightning pierced through the pitch-black night.

The plot of the movie revolves around Ling Yunkai attempting to kill Hokusai. Shen Lian, who has always admired Hokusai's calligraphy and paintings, decides to accompany him. Upon meeting Hokusai, Shen Lian discovers that Hokusai is actually the beautiful girl he encountered earlier that afternoon. Meanwhile, Ling Yunkai, driven by lust, intends to assault and then kill her. Shen Lian intervenes, leading to a confrontation between the two, which ultimately results in Shen Lian accidentally killing Ling Yunkai.

"You dare to kill me, my uncle is ... ..." Sometimes, clever people are indeed misled by their own cleverness. He had thoroughly understood Shen Lian's character and concluded that Shen Lian would not dare to kill him, yet he did not anticipate that beside Shen Lian was Chen Hao, who did not play by the rules.

Storage space! Chen Hao, feeling frustrated, slapped his forehead, realizing that he had actually forgotten about this!

This is a 9mm police revolver, with a full six rounds in the cylinder. The border between Yun and Myanmar is relatively chaotic, and for someone like Chen Hao, who has served as an auxiliary police officer for two years and has made contributions, it is permissible to be temporarily issued a handgun during special periods of apprehending criminals.

This elegant environment is indeed suitable for reciting poetry and painting Chen Hao took out a wine gourd and took a sip of wine Since arriving in the world of "The Stitching Spring Knife," he has come to enjoy drinking He feels that the wine of the late Ming Dynasty is richer and more fragrant, unlike the taste of chemical alcohol that one encounters in later generations

It has been a day since the murder at Jinling Tower, and neither Shen Lian nor Ling Yunkai was able to solve the case. Ultimately, it was determined by Qianhu Lu Wenzhao, who concluded that it was a case of robbery and murder

How exactly should one kill? Is it really relying on the embroidered spring knife in hand? Chen Hao shook his head in uncertainty, his brow furrowed in worry. Without killing, there would be no points for chivalry, and without chivalry points, one could not level up. Relying solely on hard training to enhance strength would be far too slow!

You! Shen Lian's expression was somewhat ferocious, and he was engaged in a tremendous internal struggle; killing this person would make it difficult to escape, but not killing this person would endanger the lives of his entire clan!

The Book of Impermanence? Chen Hao heard clearly from outside that Ling Yunkai had written the false accusations against Shen Lian in the Book of Impermanence. Each member of the Jinyiwei possesses a copy of this book, and once something is written in it, it is certain that someone will investigate.

It is just that he finds it somewhat strange; previously, he would only receive a response from the Knight System when he inquired himself. Why did it take the initiative to speak this time? Thus, Chen Hao tentatively asked, "What cards do I have up my sleeve?"

For Chen Hao, the greatest difficulty lies in how to eliminate Ling Yunkai, whose martial arts skills are quite formidable. With his current strength, he is far from being a match for him

"Big brother, why waste words with him? Just kill him!" Chen Hao, without much hesitation, directly aimed the handgun at Ling Yunkai's head

In fact, the order from the Eastern Depot is one aspect, but the more significant reason is that Lu Wenzhao wants to eliminate witnesses. Guo Zhen was lured to Jinling Tower by Beizhai, and once Beizhai is killed, this case will be completely resolved. Shen Lian was drawn into the struggle for the throne by Prince Xin precisely because he saved Beizhai.

After a while, intense sounds of fighting came from inside the room, along with Ling Yunkai's furious shout: "Shen Lian, do you know who my uncle is? My uncle is Wei Zhongxian, do you dare to kill me?"

Chen Hao was overjoyed; he did not expect that the items from Earth had also come to this world along with his soul

The window from outside was suddenly opened, and a lithe figure leaped in from outside, instantly drawing the attention of the three people in the room to this figure.

"Alright, big brother, I followed you because I was worried about your safety. No one saw me, so I will leave first. You should arrange the scene properly. I'm heading back now!" Chen Hao fabricated a lie and left immediately. He was extremely eager to level up as a hero and wished he could do it right away. He believed that Shen Lian could handle the scene well, as he had done a good job in the movie. As for Beizhai, it would naturally be handled by Shen Lian.

Elder brother

Chen Hao shook off Shen Lian's arm and said word by word: "If I do not kill him, he will kill us. Once he is allowed to escape alive, we may even face the extermination of our nine clans"
