Without any ceremony, Shen Tianyu shoved her other hand into the failed assassin's mouth, surprising them into a yell, which was muffled by her fist. And then they remembered who blinded them and was holding their neck and immediately turned quiet again.
Shen Tianyu felt around the other's mouth for a loose tooth, finding a molar that was slightly loose. Within the limited space, she managed to pull out the molar. And this was when the assassin dared to fight back, biting into Shen Tianyu's hand. However, Shen Tianyu made as if she didn't feel anything and continued to pick out what she was hiding under her molar. Instead, she tightened her grip on the other's neck, making them release their hold as they tried to intake some air. Shen Tianyu took her hand out of her mouth, holding the molar and a shiny, black pill.
The assassin sobbed with her mouth still open and a little blood dribbling out from the removed molar. The guards arrived, one of them announced out liud as another knocked on the door hard enough to break it down. "Zhu Wangfu's guards have this bathouse surrounded! Come out immediately, intruder!"
"What are you shouting for, I've already got them. Hurry up and help me tie them up!" Shen Tianyu answered back with an eye roll. If she hadn't had the intruder in her hand, with their shouting, wouldn't the assassin use her as a leverage? Well, good thing she put on her outer robe, otherwise a thin inner robe would become transparent with all the water that was flying and expose her body. Her outer robe was thick and flowery, so even if it got wet, it wouldn;t beceom see-through.
To her surprise, one of the guards broke through the window to the bathouse and rolled to a stop in front of her. "Wangfei, it's the fault of us subordinates for coming in late." He saluted while still kneeling on the ground.
'I guess they're not so brainless after all.' Shen Tianyu appreciated that they at least didn't barge in the doors, the most obvious way inside. "Do you have a rope or something to tie her up?" She asked the guard, her hand still tightly clutching the female assassin's throat.
"Yes." The guard answered as he produced a rope from a pouch on his hips and presented it to her without looking up still.
"What are you still kneeling there for? I'm wearing an outer robe no need to worry about Ah-Jian being upset. Now help me tie her up." Shen Tianyu sighed in exasperation as she picked up the neatly arraged rope with the hand that was still holding the molar and pill.
"Are you done? Let's bring her out then." Shen Tianyu saw the guard stiffen up but didn't care to address it. This guard must be a newbie, in the Jianghu it's kill or be killed. It's necessary to be cruel to your enemies or else you might loose everything. She had a passing pity of probably scarring the young guard for life but it was just a brief thought. She strode out of the bathouse, still holding the female assassin by the neck, careful not to put enough pressure on uit to kill her but enough to remind her whose hand her life was in. She needed her to talk so she can find out which cheapass is trying to kill her with some fifth-rate assassin.
Shen Tianyu had hastily tied on her outer robe when she was waiting for the assassin so only the belt was tied. It was enough to cover her upper body but she hadn't the time to mind the skirt so it fluttered around her ankles like some western dresses from her old world as she walked forward. Luckily, she didn't have any wounds or scars on the top of her feet so she didn't need to worry about someone seeing anything they shouldn't. She opened the door of the bahtouse herself, with the guard that had entered scrambling to catch up. What she saw was a whole platoon of guards dressed in the pruple of Zhu Wangfu and wearing silver or no armor, with swords by their hips and spears in their hands, standing at full attention. When the door opened and Shen Tianyu stepped onto the cobblestone steps, the whole platoon collectively dropped to their knees and saluted her.
