Chapter 152 All for profit

Judging from Kidd's tense body, this assassin is like a sharp dagger ready to go out at any time.

As long as Rorschach's answer is slightly wrong, he will most likely reveal the Hidden Sword in his cuff and stab at Rorschach!

Of course, this was not the result Rorschach wanted to see.

Therefore, he just raised his hands, made a peaceful gesture, and said lightly:

"Listen, Kidd, I don't mean any harm, I just want to meet Ah Tabai. I have a very important message to tell him!"

However, Kidd didn't appreciate it, he just slowly spread his arms, as if he was ready to fight at any time, "Hmph, do you think I will believe a Templar's words?!"

And at this time, Edward on the side finally couldn't help but interrupted: "What are you talking about? Why can't I understand."

"Edward, our little Master Kidd is actually an assassin."

Hearing Rorschach's explanation, Edward was taken aback for a moment, then looked at Rorschach, then turned to look at Kidd with a serious expression, and then he understood:

"Oh, that's it... that is to say, you are rivals?"

Shrugging, Rorschach explained casually:

"You can say that. However, like you, I joined the Knights Templar only for money. I don't get along with those guys who want to control the world all day long..."

These words were not only for Edward, but also for Kidd.

However, judging from the still furrowed brows and the unrelenting body posture, Kidd didn't believe him at all.

Even if what you say is the truth.

Rorschach knew that he had to come up with some practical things in order to dispel Kidd's concerns.

So, he pursed the corners of his lips lightly, and said surprisingly:
"Okay... your base camp is in Tulum, right?"

In the next second, Kidd's eyes and pupils widened suddenly, and a look of astonishment flashed across him, then he stepped back without hesitation, and flicked his right wrist lightly.

Accompanied by a soft "click", a sword blade with a cold light popped out of Kidd's right cuff!
Putting on a fighting posture, Kidd fixed his eyes on Rorschach, and said in a deep voice:

"If you don't give me a reasonable explanation..."

Facing Kidd's threat, Rorschach didn't care at all, but the corner of his mouth curled up:
"You must really want to know, why do I know the basis of the assassin? It's very simple, remember what I just said? That assassin traitor did a stupid thing that you don't even know about."

"What is it?"

"He betrayed you. And, he leaked information about you to the Templars!"

Hearing this, Kidd frowned a little deeper, "But, Kenway didn't mean that Walpole had been killed by him..."

Halfway through the conversation, it stopped abruptly.

Kidd seemed to think of something, and finally reacted, and suddenly looked at Edward beside him.

At this time, Luo Xia's voice sounded:
"That's right, the person who gave the map marking the location of the assassin's stronghold to the Knights Templar is our mutual friend, Edward Kenway!"

Frightened by Kidd's stare, Edward glanced at Kidd's Hidden Blade, and couldn't help raising his hands, "Um, why did it come to me again?"

"Kenway, you sold the map of the Assassin stronghold to the Templars?"

Meeting Kidd's eyes, Edward had no choice but to take a half step back and spread his hands, "Yes... there is such a thing."

"Why did you say it now?!"

"Then I didn't know you were an assassin before, what should I say?"

Hearing this justification, and seeing Edward's innocent look, Kidd couldn't help cursing:

"Damn!"

"Kenway, do you know that you did a very stupid thing?!"

"Don't you have any conscience, have you thought about reminding them?"

Before Edward could answer, Rorschach frowned, and spoke first to defend Edward:

"I think Edward must have thought about it. It's just that he just couldn't find a suitable opportunity. What's more, he doesn't know other assassins at all, right?"

Hearing this, the eyes of Edward and Rorschach briefly met in the air, and they immediately understood.

Rorschach is helping him find a reason!

Grateful in his heart, Edward immediately climbed up the pole, nodded and agreed:

"Yes, of course I thought about reminding the assassins, but I don't know any assassins..."

Of course, the eye contact between the two did not escape Kidd's eyes.

He looked at Edward, then at Rorschach, suddenly withdrew his right hand, and quickly retracted the Hidden Blade.

"Justification sucks, but it's better than nothing."

Turning his head to look at Rorschach, Kidd's eyes were burning like a torch, as if he wanted to see clearly what the man was thinking:
"As for you, Rorschach... as a member of the Knights Templar, why are you reminding us?"

Raising his left hand and stroking the silver ring on his ring finger, Rorschach smiled slightly, "As I said just now, I joined the Templars only for profit. I remind you that it is also for profit."

"Benefits? What do you hope to get from us assassins?"

"After I meet Ah Tabai, you will know..."

This answer obviously did not satisfy Kidd.

"How do I know you didn't do this to destroy us?"

"If I wanted to, I could lead a large number of Templars and warships directly to Tulum, so why bother talking so much nonsense with you?"

Hearing this, Kidd lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head and replied: "I can't promise you, I need to ask the instructor for instructions..."

"Of course. You just need to tell your mentor that this matter is related to the life and death of the Assassin Organization. I think he will definitely make the right choice..."

After taking a deep look at Rorschach, Kidd turned around abruptly and left.

Just two steps away, his somewhat neutral voice suddenly sounded:
"Kenway! Do you still want to rob that farm?!"

Hearing this, Edward was startled for a moment, and immediately replied loudly: "Of course!"

Before stepping to chase Kidd, Edward did not forget Rorschach's help just now, came to Rorschach, reached out and patted him on the shoulder:

"Thanks, man."

Watching the back of Edward leaving, Rorschach suddenly showed a mysterious smile:

"You're welcome, there are still many things you want to thank me for in the future..."

. . .

After the showdown with Kidd, Kidd seemed to disappear for the next few days.

Even the captain meeting of the Pirate Alliance did not attend.

Rorschach didn't care, and just dealt with the affairs of the fort step by step, and bought people's hearts, expanding his influence in the Pirate Republic as much as possible.

Until four days later, Kidd suddenly appeared in the tavern, found Rorschach and Edward who were drinking, and conveyed a message:
"A week from now, Ah Tabai wants to see you when you come to Tulum, off the coast of Yucatan."

"Remember, don't bring your crew!"
