The Deadly Assassin Robin Novel

Chapter 835 Its Him Finished Robin and his companions stepped out of the car , stopping outside the rickety picket fence surrounding the dilapidated thatched house .

Benjamin gazed at the scene before him , mumbling under his breath , General Whalen was once so high- spirited .

How could he have fallen into such a state ? Could the information be wrong ? Robin surveyed the surroundings .

Compared to the other homes in the village , with their modern conveniences , this thatched house seemed decades behind the times .

To put it bluntly , even dogs wouldnt willingly stay in a place like this .

Who are you looking for ? A woman in her fifties approached from the east .

Her name was Serena Proctor .

She sized up Robin and his group , her gaze lingering on the luxurious military vehicle behind them .

A mix of fear and suspicion flickered in her eyes .

Ferell stepped forward politely .

Hello , maam .

Could you tell me if the owner of this house is named Franco ? Serena looked puzzled .

This house belongs to my brother in laws family , but my brother in law isnt named Franco .

Are you sure you have the right person Your brother in law ? Ferell hesitated .

Is he a local ? Serena shook her head .

No , hes not .

He came to our village from elsewhere about 20 years ago and has lived here ever since .

Oh , whats his name ? Ferell asked tentatively .

Serena shivered slightly before answering , His name is Eliam Naillson .

Ferell froze for a moment , then turned to Benjamin and Robin .

General Ramsey , Mr.

Shorts , could we have the wrong place ? The owners name is Eliam .

Benjamin frowned and stepped closer to Serena .

Has Eliam always lived here ? Serena nodded .

Yes .

This was originally my sisters house .

When Eliam arrived 20 years ago , he had nowhere to stay , so my sister rented it to him .

Later , they got married .

Benjamin walked back to Robin .

Master Ramsey , could it be possible … Robin nodded thoughtfully .

Its very likely General Whalen changed his identity to hide from pursuers .

Benjamin turned back .

May we meet him ? He motioned for Ferell to retrieve a few gifts from the car .

เ Serena glanced at Ferells friendly demeanor and nodded reluctantly .

Hes been bedridden for years .

The rooms a bit messy .

Half a year ago, after my sister passed away , no ones been around to take care of this place .

Ive been coming daily to check in and cook for him and his son .

Its truly pitiful .

Your sister passed away ? Benjamin stiffened , exchanging a look with Robin .

1/3 Chapter 835 Its Him Finished Its fine , Benjamin assured her .

This gentleman here a doctor .

If possible , he can examine Eliam free of charge .

Please , let us in for a short visit .

As they approached the door , Serena suddenly stopped a wary look in her eyes .

You arent with Zyon , are you ? Ferell froze .

Who is Zyon ? Serena studied his expression , seeming to sense he wasnt lying , and exhaled in relief .

Sigh … My sister and her grandson were both harmed by Zyons people .

Eliams son was beaten so badly hes been bedridden for over half a year .

It was only then that Robin and Benjamin noticed traces of recent mourning in the house .

Robins expression darkened , and an intense , murderous aura surged from him , making Serena collapse to the ground in fear .

Realizing his outburst , Robin quickly restrained himself and helped her up .

Please dont be scared .

We mean no harm .

Lets talk inside .

Youre not with Zyon ? Serena asked , trembling all over Were not , Robin replied coolly .

Open the door .

Faced with Robins commanding tone , Serena instinctively unlocked the door and shakily led them inside .

As the door creaked open , a foul stench hit them like a wave .

I came to make food for Eliam and his son , Serena murmured , her voice tinged with sorrow .

Theyre both bedridden .

Their lives have been so hard .

Where is Eliam ? Robin asked , ignoring Serenas lament .

Serena froze , panic flashing in her eyes .

What are you planning to do ? Nothing much .

I just want to see if Eliam is the person were looking for , Robin said , his directness leaving no room for misinterpretation .

Youre here for him ? Please , dont hurt us ! Serenas voice cracked as she nearly fell to her knees .

Just tell me where Eliam is , Robin demanded , his tone icy .

Serena slumped to the floor in fear , pointing toward a dark , crumbling pile of straw in the corner .

Hes over there .

Please , hes already in such a state Im begging you , spare him .

I swear , Eliam has nothing valuable left .

All the gold bars he brought back then were taken by your people long ago .

Robin hesitated briefly .

Quiet .

Speak only when I ask you something .

Turning to Ferell , he commanded , Carry him out into the courtyard .

Its too dark in here .

Serena crawled toward Robin , clutching at his leg .

Please , I beg you , let him go ! Eliam truly has nothing left .

2/3 16:20 Sun , Jan 5 BBB Chapter 835 Its Him Finished Ignoring her pleas , Ferell approached the pile of straw , the smell intensifying to an almost unbearable level .

Holding his breath , he carefully lifted a frail , bearded man in his fifties from the heap .

The mans face was haggard , his body feeble , and his breathing barely perceptible .

Robin froze for a moment .

Hes been infected with parasites ! Mr.

Shorts , is this General Whalen ? Benjamin scrutinized the mans face for a long moment but couldnt discern his features .

Robin motioned to Ferell .

Shave his beard .

Ferell unsheathed a short knife , prompting Serena to cry out in terror .

Please dont kill him ! she begged , her forehead nearly touching the ground as she knelt .

Ferell ignored her , swiftly shaving the mans beard .

Benjamin stared at the now clear face , his eyes welling with tears .

General Whalen ! Master Ramsey , its him ! This is General Whalen ! Robin immediately knelt on one knee , gently supporting Francos neck .

After a moments observation , he pulled out a set of golden needles and began inserting them into specific acupuncture points the brow , temples , crown , chest , and more .

Within a minute , a plume of black smoke erupted from Francos head , followed by a noxious black liquid that oozed from his mouth , nose , eyes , and ears .

Youve killed him ! Serena screamed in despair .

Ferell stepped forward to calm her .

Relax .

The General is saving him .

Five minutes later , a faint cough broke the tension .

Franco spat out a mouthful of black blood and slowly opened his eyes .
