Prodigal System in the Flourishing City-Chapter 1363 - 1365: Exciting, Isn’t It?
Marcus is an international assassin.
Ranked seventh on the assassin list—nicknamed Shadow, his specialty is infiltration, close-range assassination!
Upon hearing his identity, I reckon you all guessed it!
Yes, he took on the mission to assassinate Lu Xiaobu.
"Marcus, be careful, this Lu Xiaobu is no ordinary person, he has many legends that are hard to distinguish between truth and lies." The assassin agent reminded.
"I know, he does seem quite mythical, but I don’t think it’s all true." Marcus chuckled while holding a thick stack of documents: "Besides, you know I’m not someone who is overly persistent, if it doesn’t work, I’ll just abandon the mission."
"Well, that’s true." The assassin agent nodded.
The biggest reason Marcus is ranked seventh is because he never pursues the so-called task completion rate.
If possible, he will complete the mission.
If not, he’ll abandon it immediately.
So, many employers feel a headache when they see Marcus has taken the job!
"But, besides you, there’s probably no one who can handle this task better." The assassin agent continued: "After all, the gun control in the Heavenly Dynasty is seriously strict!"
Now, more than eighty percent of assassins prioritize long-distance kills, the safest method.
However, obtaining such long-distance weapons in the Heavenly Dynasty is nearly impossible!
So, many assassins are truly unwilling to go there!
"Of course." Marcus put down the documents in his hand.
Then, in the blink of an eye, a small knife inexplicably appeared in his hand.
After spinning around a few times in his hand, the knife was casually pinned onto Lu Xiaobu’s photo on the documents!
"So be it then, wish you smooth sailing." The assassin agent hung up the phone.
...
"The Heavenly Dynasty, huh? It really is a beautiful country." Marcus, dressed casually, walked out of the airport looking like a tourist.
With his attire, he was obviously targeted by locals who prey on foreigners.
Hence.
He first got scammed by an illegal taxi.
Then, tricked by an elderly lady pretending to fall and hurt herself.
"Crafty Heavenly Dynasty people!" Marcus reluctantly forked over some money.
Seeing his helpless appearance, no one would suspect he is an assassin!
Strolling leisurely, as evening approached, Marcus arrived near the Lu Family’s place.
Then, he lay down in a nearby grove, leisurely watching the sunset.
Time ticked away second by second.
There was movement in the Lu Family’s villa.
An RV drove out.
It was Lu Xiaobu.
"Left, has he?" Marcus spat out the grass root he was chewing and stood up, stretching lazily.
His goal wasn’t to go directly after Lu Xiaobu; that’s the act of a fool.
His target was Lu Xiaobu’s home.
Infiltrate it, then make a move the moment Lu Xiaobu returns!
No matter who, the moment they return home, they instinctively relax.
Especially a people like the Heavenly Dynasty who hold strong attachment to the concept of home.
Besides, this would be a test, the situation at Lu’s house will mostly determine whether this assassination will succeed.
Hmm, entering the building was easy, there’s no surveillance equipment.
Hmm, observing the environment, people here are quite casual, there’s no tension.
Hmm, smells good, the food here might be quite tasty!
Bah, thinking too much!
Wait, what’s that huge thing over there?
Seems like a helicopter?
Wow, Lu Xiaobu sure is rich, even has a helicopter parked at home.
And this helicopter looks quite imposing!
Better take a closer look!
Holy crap!
Marcus turned and ran!
Dammit! It’s an armed helicopter!
What the hell?! Why does a millionaire’s home have an armed helicopter?!
Is he freaking time traveling?!
"Click!"
The lights of the armed helicopter turned on, directly illuminating Marcus!
Then.
"Da-da-da-da!"
The helicopter took off!
Hovering over Marcus, all kinds of weapons in ready position, ready to blast Marcus to bits at any moment!
Marcus was paralyzed on the spot!
"Hands up!" Fan Ming’s voice came from the helicopter: "Unless you want to spar with me!"
"I’m saying I went to the wrong place, do you believe me?" Marcus attempted a smile uglier than a cry as he slowly raised his hands.
"I’m saying my helicopter is loaded with weapons, do you believe me?" Fan Ming shrugged.
"I believe! I totally believe!" Marcus was almost in tears!
How could I not believe?
He saw the missiles hanging on the helicopter!
This is freaking terrifying!
He has seen people hiring bodyguards, hiring assassins, even the scariest with an entire squad of mercenaries for protection!
But he seriously hadn’t seen anyone guard their house with a helicopter!
Really excessive!
I’m just an assassin, not a mercenary army!
Is this necessary?!
I don’t even have a gun on me!
"Good to hear." Lu Xiaobu’s voice came from the doorway.
"You didn’t leave?!" Marcus was immediately surprised: "Wait, you knew I was coming?!"
"Yes." Lu Xiaobu nodded.
Marcus might be able to evade official monitoring, but he would certainly fall under Zhang Benhu’s surveillance.
After all, Marcus would have to navigate through either the legitimate or the underground channels!
The few swindling incidents Marcus faced included probing arranged by Zhang Benhu.
"I... you..."
Marcus was helplessly on the verge of tears!
What is all this?!
This mission was taken too poorly!
Who the hell could’ve expected to encounter an armed helicopter?!
"Thrilling, isn’t it?" Lu Xiaobu laughed mischievously at Marcus.
He let Marcus in just for this moment!
Hahaha, thrilling!
You’re here for an assassination?!
The helicopter is watching you, question is are you scared or not!
"Too thrilling!" Marcus said with his scalp tingling.
Is this called thrilling?!
This is overly thrilling!
Is this necessary?!
He just wanted to ask, is this necessary?!
Since you’ve already discovered me, why not just send someone to arrest me directly?!
Why insist on using the helicopter to scare me?!
...
Marcus was taken away.
Lu Xiaobu was very satisfied, very pleased.
Mr. Wang, however, had no choice but to smile wryly.
After knowing Marcus arrived at Shimen, he had proposed the idea of simply sending someone to arrest him.
Yet, Lu Xiaobu insisted on using the helicopter to scare him.
Alas, he’s really capricious!
However, just then, suddenly his heart skipped a beat!
A sense of foreboding appeared in his mind!
His sixth sense is immensely accurate!
There’s danger!
Could it be that Marcus left behind some contingency?!
No! Incorrect! This danger doesn’t originate from Marcus!
Rather, it’s coming from Lu Xiaobu!
From Lu Xiaobu’s eyes darting everywhere, more so from Lu Xiaobu’s smile!
Oh no! Bad news!
Lu Xiaobu is about to cause trouble!
I want to ask, if I run now, is it still possible?!
Waiting online, quite urgent!
