Chapter 104: The Meeting
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Every country had assassins.
It was not easy for an assassin to take a place among the top ten in the world. They were all notoriously vicious and everyone in the world knew of them.
Just like everyone knew that Mountain Cat was the number two assassin. Countless victims had died in Mountain Cat’s hands, but no one dared to do anything even when he publicly acknowledged his crimes to the media.
Firstly, they would never get any hard evidence. Secondly, no one dared to provoke him.
And this ranked number eight Monster was a newbie. It had only been three years since he emerged on the international scene, but already managed to eke out an eighth placing.
This was because he had never failed a single mission. It was very expensive to hire him.
But the Dark Angels managed to hire such a prominent figure to deal with her.
Nevertheless, Su Huiqing had yet to uncover whether the Dark Angels wanted to destroy her… or the Su Family.
It was no big deal if it was just her, but if the final goal was the Su Family…
Su Huiqing’s eyes darkened.
She had never met this Monster, but had gathered information about him when she was at the International Association. She knew that this person was an exceptionally cunning assassin, with a genius-level IQ of 160. Scheming and violent, there was nothing this Monster was not capable of.
If it was her alone, she could escape Monster’s pursuit.
But there was Chu Xuning and the gang, as well as Kyle—the person whom she had been planning to capture for so long.
Su Huiqing lowered her eyes as she calmly gathered up the evidence against Kyle and stuffed them into her bag.
She then went completely still as she focused on recalling the layout of their location.
Chu Xuning and the gang didn’t know why Su Huiqing suddenly stopped, but no one dared to speak up. They just continued holding onto Kyle. As soldiers, they could instinctively feel that danger still surrounded them.
“Ms. Su, catch!” Chief detective drew out a gun and tossed it over to Su Huiqing.
Without even turning her head, Su Huiqing reached out to catch the gun. She calmly cocked the weapon, her actions smooth and practiced.
Her dark eyes were chilly and clear.
This version of Su Huiqing was cool and willful. Even that slight smile on her lips was cold.
This was a side to her that Zhang Mingxi had never seen before.
But before he had time to ponder this change in her, something completely unexpected happened.
A 1.9 meter tall Caucasian with a very ordinary face appeared. He was leaning at the entrance of the stairway with a .17-caliber rifle in hand.
He surveyed the group of people before him with a mild expression.
His eyes were sharp and the color of green tea.
Without a word, he aimed his weapon at Su Huiqing.
Unexpectedly, Su Huiqing easily evaded him.
Monster’s pupils narrowed as he sized up Su Huiqing seriously. He had accepted this mission in Green City with a leisurely mindset. After all, his previous targets were all Presidents and Commander-in-chiefs.
An insignificant person like Su Huiqing was nothing in his eyes. That was why he had just been leaning casually by the side.
He was well known for his speed. He was not being conceited—it was just that those who managed to evade him were… far too few.
“I never expected that a tiny place like Country Hua… has someone like you.” Monster shifted the position of his weapon as he spoke in broken Mandarin.
Chief detective had already identified the weapon in his hands and his eyes widened in shock. “You are the assassin Monster?!”
The entire room tensed on hearing his words.
The legendary killer who had never failed a mission. The latest talent among the assassin circles.
The rifle which represented his identity.
Chu Xuning’s palms. had turned all sweaty.
When did such a bunch of scary figures come to Green City? They were even capable of hiring renowned assassins like this Monster?
“You all know my working style.” Monster rested the tip of his gun on the floor. His tall, strapping physique was very domineering. “My target is that young lady. As for the rest of you, I am in a good mood today as I have met a worthy opponent. I will give the rest of you a chance to live…”
“Is that right?”
Before he could finish his sentence, a cool voice drifted lazily over.
This voice was so pleasant that everyone subconsciously turned to look behind Monster.
It was a tall, slender figure, clad in a black sweatshirt.
Under the gaze of the crowd, he took off his cap and face mask, revealing an exquisitely handsome face.
A pair of mesmerizing eyes surveyed the crowd, before fixing upon Su Huiqing.
No matter how much a person changed, the vibe she gave off would always be the same.
Chi Qing knew that no matter how much he altered his appearance, that person would also instantly recognize him.
Just like how he was now looking at Su Huiqing, who bore no resemblance to how she used to look like.
Her nonchalant expression, the way the corners of her lips curled up slightly, and even the way her pupils narrowed…
It was completely the same as how he remembered!
Chi Qing was certain now that this was her.
But he also realized that Su Huiqing had none of the marks of plastic surgery or makeup, even though her face had changed. Her status had also changed…
No wonder he failed to detect any clues, despite combing the entire International Association.
Chi Qing’s eyes deepened to unbeknown depths.
He shifted his gaze to that Monster.
Meanwhile, Su Huiqing had also been stunned by the sight of Chi Qing. She put down her gun as a sense of resignation washed over her face. When she was planning for this mission, she should have known he would accurately predict her movements…
Chi Qing could find her.
Actually, it was not surprising, but…
She never expected him to do so so quickly.
And under such circumstances.
“Ms. Su, do you know Chi Qing?” Chu Xuning turned to see Chi Qing calmly walking over to Monster with one hand in his pocket. “Damn, is he not afraid of death?!”
He instinctively raised his weapon.
He probably thought Chi Qing was some fool.
“Don’t worry.” Su Huiqing raised one hand to stop the weapon in his hand. “He will be fine.”
She lowered her eyes and her lashes fluttered gently.
Her tone was relaxed and confident.
Publicly, Chi Qing was the king of the elites worldwide, but in reality, he was even more…
