Chapter 4: Ren's death

　　 Putting on clean clothes, Renn sat down at the desk with a pensive expression on his face.
　　 He was thinking carefully about the causes and consequences of his death.
　　 Although the memory is a bit incomplete and lacks a lot of details, Renne is very clear about the culprit of all this, mainly two people.
　　 One of my classmates in the academy, named Ramsey, used to be a very good friend, but also an executor who killed himself.
　　 Another person called Asperger, a truly extraordinary man, he was the mastermind of his murder.
　　 Rehn doesn’t know much about Asperger. He only knows that his extraordinary profession may be a "ranger" or a "shadow fighter". The two have some things in common at low levels. It is difficult for outsiders to accurately identify occupations if they do not fight with them or watch them with their own eyes.
　　 Asperger is a master of swordsmanship and is a teacher in a famous swordsmanship hall in Longshande.
　　Ryan has some talents in swordsmanship. He has studied swordsmanship with the academy teachers for three years. His level of strength is in the middle and upper reaches of his classmates, but when facing Asperger, he can't even catch a sword!
　　 He was able to know Asperger because of Ramsey's introduction.
　　 Half a month ago, Ren and his father fell out and returned to Longshande, looking for a job to make a living. But besides a little bit of swordsmanship and literacy, he has basically no abilities in other areas, and he doesn't want to do an indecent job like a worker or a postman, so he runs into walls everywhere.
　　 Later, I ran into Ramsey outside the academy. Because the two had a good relationship, Rennes told him about his difficulties.
　　 The next day, Ramsey took the initiative to introduce Rennes to a job and entered the "Sword of Maloney" swordsmanship hall as an assistant to Asperger.
The sword of Majianni is one of the most famous swordsmanship halls in the city. Even if it is just an assistant position, the salary is very considerable, several times higher than that of the average worker, and it is quite decent. At that time, Renn agreed without hesitation , I am very grateful to Ramsey.
　　 After that, Ren formally went to work in the swordsmanship hall, and gained a foothold with good swordsmanship. Asperger was also very satisfied with him, and occasionally taught swordsmanship himself.
　　 Ramsey is also Asperger’s assistant, working together in the swordsmanship hall, Ren and his relationship is getting better and better, he almost treats him as a life confidant, nothing to talk about.
　　 Until yesterday.
　　 Before leaving get off work, Ramsey suddenly and mysteriously told Rennes that Asperger had an important thing for them to do, and met in a pub on Perfume Street after dark.
　　 Ryan did not think much, arrived at the pub on time, and then followed Ramsey in a strange carriage behind the pub.
　　The windows of the carriage are all sealed with black cloth, so you cannot see outside.
　　 Ramsey took out two sets of sophisticated leather armors in the car and put them on, and gave Ren a long sword. Obviously he had prepared it long ago. Ren was puzzled at the time, but didn't ask much.
　　 The carriage had been walking around the city for a long time, but Rennes didn't know where it was, and finally stopped in a remote alley.
　　 After the two got out of the car, Ren saw that Asperger was already waiting.
　　 Asperger was also wearing black leather armor, with two weapons, one long and one short, hung on his waist. He covered half of his face with a black scarf, standing motionless in the corner, his figure hidden in the shadows. If it hadn't been for him to show up, Rennes would not be able to discover his existence.
　　 Then, Asperger began to arrange his actions.
　　 Until now, Renn finally understood what to do. Asperger actually wanted to enter the house to kill, and the target was a family in the house next to the alley.
　　 He didn't understand why Asperger wanted to bring himself. There was only fear and resistance in his mind.
　　 But Asperger didn't give Renn a chance to refuse at all. He asked Ramsey to watch the wind in the dark of the alley and told Renn to follow him in and do something. Ren wanted to escape, but he was also very clear that if he wanted to quit now, Asperger would kill himself first, so he could only bite the bullet and go in together.
　　The subsequent killing caused Rennes to suffer a huge psychological shock.
　　 Asperger's goal is to be a "mechanical craftsman" with a wealth of wealth, but not an extraordinary person. The two guards in the house are just ordinary people, and they have no resistance in front of the powerful transcendents.
　　 In just a few minutes, Asperger bloodbathed the family, including the mechanic himself, as well as his wife, two children, five or six servants, and guards. Almost all were brutally killed.
　　 Only one of the guards was left behind by Asperger deliberately. After losing his mobility, he asked Renn to kill him.
　　 After several hardships and struggles in his heart, in order to survive, he finally pierced the guard's heart with a sword.
　　 Next, Asperger asked Ramsey to come in, searched the mechanic's house inside and out, and got a large amount of property. They have a lot of experience, and many hidden valuables have been found out. Obviously it is not the first time that they have done this kind of thing.
　　 Ryan did not participate in the looting and was still in shock of the first murder.
　　 Asperger returned to the carriage with his belongings. This time he was going to ride back with the two of them.
　　 On the way back, Renn said nothing. Ramsey has been persuading him, and promised to have his share after handling these things, enough for him to pay the college tuition, and there is still a lot of surplus to live a decent life.
　　 When Ramsey said these words, Asperger kept staring at him, putting great pressure on Rennes.
　　 Ren didn't immediately agree, his brain was almost in a stagnant state, he returned to the previous tavern in a vague way, changed his clothes and left.
　　 On the way back to the apartment alone, Renn finally reacted.
　　 The action at night was actually a trap. Asperger and Ramsey wanted to pull themselves into the water and become part of them. If he agrees this time, he will fall into the evil road from now on, and there will be more terrible things waiting for him in the future.
　　 Renn immediately decided to report it!
　　 Although he was forced to kill a guard, he had to do it. Even if he was tried, he would be charged a lesser crime. It is better to be beheaded after committing more crimes in the future. And there is a credit for reporting Asperger, enough to offset the charge.
　　 So, Ren turned to the church of the Justice Church.
　　 However, not long after he walked out, at a corner of the street, Ren saw Asperger's figure from a distance. He was so scared that he was knocked out when he was about to turn around and escape.
　　 When Lei Zhuan woke up again, he was beaten up.
　　 He found that his head was covered by a cloth bag, he could see nothing, his mouth was gagged, he could only hear Ramsey's crazy curses, and then he was beaten for several hours, during which he lost consciousness several times.
The last memory of 　　 was a heavy blow in the back of the head, and also the most fatal blow.
　　Wait until Ren regained consciousness again, the person was already in the river, the body was still the same person, but the soul in the brain was no longer the former "Ren".
　　 Rehn recalled all this and couldn't help but sigh.
　　 The predecessor is still too young, only nineteen years old, he has not seen the sinisterness of the human heart, and has not enough coping experience.
　　 It was right to report Asperger, but he woke up too late. He should think about all of this on the carriage back, pretend to be moved by money, and agree to Ramsey's invitation first.
　　 did not immediately agree at the time, which had already made Asperger and Ramsey suspicious. After they left the tavern, the two followed behind secretly, and Renn was not even wary of anything before.
　　 Waiting for him to transfer to the Justice Church, Asperger immediately realized the purpose, and of course he would not give another chance.
　　 If you go back to the apartment first, and wait until the next day to report, even if Ramsey is still watching secretly, he will not be so easily attacked during the day when there are many people.
　　Actually, even if Ren successfully reported the crimes of Asperger, he would not end well. Extraordinary people like Asperger, and judging from his behavior, need to pull people into the gang, there is most likely a strong organization behind them.
　　 Even if Ryan would have done it without being tried, he would not escape the result of being revenge.
　　 "It's too naive to suffer the loss of youth."
　　 Raine whispered, and for a long time, he thought to himself: "I will help you with this grudge, as compensation for occupying your body."
　　 The former Renn died, but the current Renn still lives on.
　　 He doesn't know how to take revenge for the time being, but he never thought of giving up and fleeing to live elsewhere.
　　 At present, his biggest advantage is that Ramsey and Asperger don't know that they are still alive, and the enemy is in the dark. Although Ramsey knew the address of the apartment, he committed suicide and threw his body. He would never go to the apartment to check afterwards, so as not to arouse suspicion.
　　 According to the normal development, Ren's body was found in the river and reported to the city hall, and the sheriff was sent to investigate. Because of lack of clues, it was finally lost.
　　 Or, Ren's body was not found and disappeared. He lives alone in Longshande, and the only people he has contact with are the people in the swordsmanship hall. If Ramsey does not report to the city hall, the landlord will not find out that Renn is missing until the rent is paid next month.
　　 "If I were Ramsey, I would definitely not take the initiative to report to the city hall. The longer the delay, the better for him."
　　 Ren made a judgment.
　　 "The next time the rent is paid, it will be more than half a month before the landlord discovers that the tenant is missing. After the report is submitted, the sheriff will go to the swordsmanship hall to find someone to investigate."
　　 "Neither Asperger nor Ramsey would have thought that I was still alive in this half month."
"But I can't continue to live in the apartment, otherwise after half a month, no one will go to the sword hall to investigate, Ramsey will come to the apartment to check the situation, and find that I am still living here, which will cause another murder. ."
　　 "I must remain missing and hide in the dark to make it more convenient for revenge."
　　 Ren quickly sorted out his thoughts and decided to leave the apartment immediately.
　　 But there is one more thing to do before leaving. He moved the desk to reveal the wall behind, lifted off a loose brick, and took out an envelope from the inside.
　　 "This method of hiding money is too old-fashioned. If Ramsey comes to the apartment to search, he will be found out in less than a minute."
　　 Ryan smiled and shook his head, pushed the desk back to its original position, and poured out the money in the envelope.
　　 The money is not much, a small stack of banknotes plus a dozen coins.
　　 The currency system of the Oriense Empire is very complicated. There are printed banknotes and three metal coins of varying denominations in circulation.
　　 Minting coins are divided into three types: copper risor, silver krona and gold shield, and the face value of paper currency is equivalent to copper risor and is called copper dollar.
　　 A banknote with a face value of one copper yuan is equivalent to a copper risor, and there are also banknotes with face values ​​of 5 copper yuan, 10 copper yuan, 20 copper yuan, 50 copper yuan and 100 copper yuan. One silver crown is equal to 20 copper yuan, UU reading www. uukanshu. Com 50 silver crowns are equivalent to a golden shield.
　　 In other words, a gold shield can be exchanged for one thousand copper yuan.
　　 In daily life, people mostly use two kinds of copper dollar banknotes and copper rissoles. Occasionally, silver krona is used. Only when large amounts are involved, they will exchange for gold shields.
　　 For example, the tuition fee of Transcendental Academy requires 20 golden shields a year.
　　 This is a huge sum of money for ordinary families. Even in Longshande, there are not many families that can afford such high tuition fees.
　　 Rehn counted it again, six 100 copper yuan banknotes and five 50 copper yuan bills, and the rest were a dozen small denomination banknotes and a small handful of silver and copper coins.
　　 This sum of money adds up to more than 1,000 copper yuan, which can be exchanged for a gold shield, with a fraction left.
　　He rubbed the thin banknotes in his hand a few times, and he felt the delicate patterns. The pale green banknotes smelled of ink, which smelled very good; several silver coins and copper coins collided with each other, making a jingle, which was also very nice.
　　 Although the smell and sound are slightly different from the previous life, it still smells and sounds with a very familiar feeling.
　　 Banknotes and copper coins were printed with heads of several people, including mighty middle-aged men, wise old men, and even one who looked very young.
　　 Ren didn't know any of them, but each of them looked very kind.
　　 This is what he saved in the past three years. It is not too much. It is equivalent to two months' wages for a worker, enough to live in Longshande for a while.
　　 Put the money away and hide it in a personal pocket.
　　 Rain found a sun hat from the closet to put on a sun hat, cleaned up the traces of his return, then put the wet clothes that he had just worn back into a bag and carried it, taking advantage of the chance of being alone, bowed his head and left the apartment.
