- When Jenny and the others checked into the small hotel, it was already getting late.
After they finished eating and drinking, the street outside was completely shrouded in night.
Because it was the early seventeenth century, there were no facilities such as street lights on both sides of the city streets in this era.
So, when night falls, the whole city is plunged into darkness.
Of course, residents also lit candles in their homes, so there was still some light.
But on the street, it can be said to be absolutely dark.
Therefore, in the city at night, almost all the pedestrians on the streets have disappeared. Except for the homeless beggars, ordinary people basically will not appear on the streets at this time.
And even those beggars, most of them have returned to their settlements, and only a few unsociable guys wander the streets.
Under such circumstances, people who come out at night are basically very suspicious.
No wonder Jenny was so sure that the people in the small hotel were her targets.
Besides, Jenny knew very well that this small hotel was still a stronghold for some people.
??????????? So, you can¡¯t go wrong with this.
The eating and drinking has been completed, and the target he wants to deal with has not yet appeared.
At the same time, while we were eating and drinking below, the target living on the second floor was already secretly looking at them.
Therefore, I cannot make the other party alert.
¡°Besides, I have already determined something. But it is unlikely that the other party will determine their identity and become wary of them.
So, what she has to do now is to arrange for her subordinates to pretend to stay in the hotel so that the other party can't find anything suspicious.
After the other party lets down their guard, it¡¯s time to deal with them yourself.
¡°Besides, the other party will definitely be dispatched tonight.
According to some information given by the head of the Intelligence Department, these assassins have been carrying out their operations for ten consecutive days. There was no intention of stopping at all.
After their subordinates booked a room with the hotel owner, Jenny and the others pretended to complain about the depression of Marseille Port, saying loudly that they would stay here for one night and leave the next day.
There is nothing to avoid at all.
?????????? Actually, this is all deliberately said to certain people.
Jenny knew that the other party would definitely be able to hear it.
Because the door of one of the rooms was opened a crack, and it was obvious that someone was constantly observing them.
The owner of the hotel was very happy at this time. If people like Jenny stay for one night, he can make a lot of money.
You know, since the war started, his business here has gone from bad to worse.
By now, it has been a long time since the guest rooms were occupied.
For being able to make money. This boss will not refuse.
"What the guest said is that the trade here in Marseille Port has completely stagnated now. It's all because of the damn war. The maritime trade that has gradually become popular has now stopped. Ocean-going ships simply don't dare to go to sea, and we people are also unlucky. It¡¯s over.¡±
The owner of the hotel led the way, and at the same time continued to echo what Jenny and the others said.
"There is nothing we can do about it. Our Chamber of Commerce doesn't even have any goods now. Otherwise, we wouldn't come to Marseille to try our luck. But who knew the same situation is happening here in Marseille, so I plan to go to Lisbon to see it tomorrow."
Jenny took over what the innkeeper said as if she was really someone from a certain chamber of commerce looking for sources of goods.
"Lisbon?", the hotel owner smiled bitterly upon hearing this, without stopping at all. "Madam, actually I don't think you need to go to Lisbon. Let me tell you, the situation in Lisbon is actually no different from Marseille. I guess the maritime trade there is also the same situation."
"Oh. Of course I guessed it too. But if you don't go and take a look, you won't give up. If there is no supply of goods, our chamber of commerce will go bankrupt."
Jenny pretended to be bitter, as if that was really the case.
The conversation between her and the hotel owner was neither loud nor quiet, but it could be heard clearly by some people.
So, we are observing their target. After hearing the conversation between Jenny and the hotel owner, the alertness in my heart that was not very strong at first was relieved a lot.
Speaking of which, the dark forces of this era are still relatively weak in some respects.Get modern.
after all. They did not have some knowledge of that standard system, and they only accepted the assassination expertise taught by the church.
Therefore, in terms of prevention and vigilance, it will definitely not be that high.
¡°If it were those modern intelligence organization personnel, a group of people like Jenny would have been seen through long ago.
But who said this was the early seventeenth century?
¡°This is your room, I wish you a pleasant night.¡±
Before taking Jenny to the door of her room, the owner of the hotel said a nice and auspicious word.
It seems that whether it is the East or the West, people doing business will say auspicious words.
Quietly closing the door, two rooms away from Jenny¡¯s room, lived Jenny¡¯s target.
After closing the door, the middle-aged man living in this room gently put his ear to the door and listened carefully to what was going on outside.
After a while, he left the door and walked to the bed inside the house.
This room is twenty square meters in size, with two beds and a square table.
Because it was getting dark, the candles had been lit.
Opposite the middle-aged man¡¯s bed, sat a man of the same age in his thirties or forties.
Like most European men of this era, both of them had unkempt, greasy blond hair and beards.
"How about it?"
When the man came back, the man who had been lying there asked.
¡°They are a group of businessmen, there will be no trouble. It¡¯s not like we haven¡¯t seen businessmen like this before. They will leave tomorrow and go to Lisbon.¡±
¡°Obviously, Jenny¡¯s words have been believed by the other party.
"It's best to be careful. We've caused so much trouble for those Song people recently. It's impossible for them not to deal with us."
The man lying on the bed said seriously to his companion.
"You're just being careless, Leonard. I don't think there's anything we should be wary of about these people. We've seen a lot of businessmen like this during this time."
"It's always good to be careful." The middle-aged man who was called "Leonard" lying on the bed, after hearing his companion's nonchalant words, turned over and sat up and looked at him seriously. "Bill, you have to know, if you are not afraid of 10,000, just be afraid of the worst."
Leonard turned over and sat on the edge of the bed. But Bill was lying on his bed, and the two of them were now turning over.
Seeing Leonard looking at him seriously, Bill waved his hands indifferently: "You have always been like this, no matter what you do, you are cautious. In fact, I don't think there is anything wrong with it. I¡¯m really worried. If the Song people want to deal with us, won¡¯t we be able to recognize the people they send out? These guys are easy to recognize, with black hair and black eyes, it¡¯s impossible to hide them.¡±
When Leonard saw that Bill didn't take his words to heart at all, he couldn't help but feel angry and bitter.
For his companion, who always has a careless personality, he really has no choice at all.
"That's what I said, but you have to be careful. What if those Song people invite others to deal with us?" Leonard suppressed a little discomfort in his heart and reminded Bill.
Bill turned his back to Leonard and said in a faint voice: "Is there any organization on this continent that can be stronger than us? Don't forget, we are affiliated with the Inquisition."
Hearing this, Leonard continued to say something.
But before he could speak, he was interrupted by Bill.
"Okay. Okay, let me lie down for a while. We have to go out to do errands at night, so I need to have a good rest."
Hearing what Bill said, Leonard had no choice but to swallow what he wanted to say again.
His heart was constantly turbulent, and he always felt a sense of crisis.
This feeling was very unreasonable, and he himself found it very strange.
Maybe, I am too cautious.
He shook his head. Leonard thought to himself secretly.
However, he still felt that he should discuss it with other companions.
Since Bill doesn¡¯t make sense here, what about the other companions?
To know. He and Bill were not the only ones here to do things this time.
Thinking of this,?? said to Bill: "You should rest first, I'll go see where the others are."
After saying that, Leonard stood up and walked towards the door.
At this moment, Jenny was in her room and began to issue a series of deployment orders to her middle-aged subordinate.
"There are seven people on the other side, and we have sixteen people. Therefore, we have an absolute advantage in numbers, so I want to deal with them all at once in a short period of time."
By the dim candlelight, Jenny whispered to the middle-aged subordinate.
"Chief, what do you want to do?"
"You are like this, like this, like this"
As Jenny explained, the middle-aged subordinates couldn¡¯t help but nod in agreement.
Soon, Jenny finished explaining, and the middle-aged man left Jenny¡¯s room.
About five minutes later, several loud voices came from outside the room.
¡°The long night is very lonely, let¡¯s go find some girls to play with.¡±
"Yeah!"
"Who is treating you today? It was me who treated you last time. I won't pay for it this time."
"Don't worry, I'll pay for it this time."
From the sound of it, there should be five people.
Jenny¡¯s lips curled up. She had arranged for these five people to leave the hotel and ambush them outside.
By using the excuse of looking for a woman, no one would suspect it.
Soon, the sounds outside became increasingly distant.
Jenny closed her eyes, she knew that everything was about to begin. - Didn't finish reading? Add this book to your favoritesI'm a member and bookmarked this chapterCopy the address of this book and recommend it to your friends for pointsChapter error? Click here to report
