Chapter 169: Wiped Out All At Once
Even though he had seen it with his own eyes, Shen Qiang couldn’t help but doubt it.
He turned around and closed the door of the room. After locking it, he looked at Sixth Brother, who was still breathing, and couldn’t help but ask Jian Xing’er, “Why didn’t you kill him too? Leaving him alive will cause trouble in the future.”
“I have something else to ask him.” Jian Xing’er kicked Sixth Brother and asked, “Why did you follow Hou Junlai? Does your assassin have a grudge against him, or did someone hire you to kill him?”
Because of the pain, Sixth Brother’s forehead was already covered in sweat and his breathing was strained, but he gritted his teeth and remained silent. Seeing this, Jian Xing’er couldn’t be bothered to waste her breath. She picked up the silver needle and inserted it into his acupuncture point.
Sixth Brother’s entire body twitched, and he couldn’t help but wail in pain. Shen Qiang could clearly see that Sixth Brother couldn’t hold on much longer! Sixth Brother had been receiving high-intensity training in the assassin organization since he could remember, so ordinary small fights were not enough to make him so miserable.
“No one has a grudge against Hou Junlai, and no one wants to kill him. It’s…” Sixth Brother finally couldn’t stand the pain anymore and said in one breath, “His mother hired us to follow him. Actually, she just wanted to put on a show in front of you, since she wants you to remarry Hou Junlai!”
“Hou Junlai’s mother paid an assassin to follow her son? Are you lying to me?” Jian Xing’er was skeptical.
“I’m telling the truth!” Sixth Brother said honestly. “She said that Hou Junlai is very smart, so she has to hire a professional assassin, or he’ll find out!”
Jian Xing’er couldn’t help but sneer. Mrs. Hou was really quite something. In order to scheme against her, she didn’t even let her son off. However, now that she knew that Hou Junlai was no longer in danger, she was relieved. Although the two of them had already separated, she couldn’t watch him fall into danger. He asked in fear, “I’ve told you everything you asked. Can you let me go now?” He was used to living on the edge, but this was the first time he felt actual fear. “When did I say that I was going to let you go?” Jian Xing’er smiled, but her eyes were filled with coldness. Before Sixth Brother could speak again, a silver needle flew out and stabbed at his throat.
In the next second, Sixth Brother’s head drooped and he stopped breathing. None of the six assassins survived.
“Clean up the aftermath. I’ll wait for you in the car.” Jian Xing’er picked up the wet wipe on the dining table and wiped her hands before turning to leave the room.
Five minutes later, a silver-gray van stopped by the side of the Crown Hotel. After the door was pushed open from the inside, more than ten people in black clothes quickly walked in through the back door of the Crown Hotel.
These men in black were all wearing gloves and carrying a toolbox in their hands.
Half an hour later, these men in black walked out of the hotel with a black plastic bag in each of their hands. After throwing the plastic bag into the trunk of the van, they disappeared into the night like ghosts.
Not long after, Shen Qiang walked out and got into Jian Xing’er’s passenger seat. Jian Xing’er asked, “Who are these people?”
“They’re in charge of cleaning up ‘trash’. Everyone calls them scavengers.”
Shen Qiang said, “Don’t worry, they’re very professional, so no one will discover anything. Everything about these trash will be wiped out from Sea City from tonight onwards. Even the assassin organization won’t be able to find any clues.”
Jian Xing’er was quite satisfied. She didn’t expect Shen Qiang to be so reliable. Jian Xing’er asked curiously, “Does this team of scavengers have any strongholds in other cities?”
“Yes!” Shen Qiang nodded as he said, “They have strongholds in all cities in the country. As long as customers contact their company’s headquarters, the headquarters will send people to the event location from nearby. They’re very efficient, so everyone has a high evaluation of them.” At this point, Shen Qiang added, “It’s just that the fees are a little high. Ordinary people can’t afford it.” “Give me their contact details!” Jian Xing’er said. With their contact details, she wouldn’t have to personally deal with the aftermath in the future.
“Okay!” Shen Qiang sent the number on his phone to Jian Xing’er. “Miss Jian, I have something to tell you. How about we find a place to sit and chat?”
“Okay!” Jian Xing’er turned the car around and drove to a nearby cafe. Five minutes later, the two of them walked into the cafe.
After ordering, Shen Qiang sat on the sofa opposite Jian Xing’er. “Miss Jian, now that you’ve cleaned up all the assassins in Sea City, I’ll give you the list of the remaining assassins scattered all over the Demon Province.”
Jian Xing’er frowned slightly. “You know that this isn’t all I want.. I want to find out their nest so that I can wipe them out all at once!”
