Yesterday, I went to sleep with a heavy heart, and because I was in a bad mood, Shen Zuimo woke up early.
Lingze told her he needed to return to Yanhuang Soul and instructed her to wait here for news.
At the ti, Shen Zuimo didn't think much of it, figuring it was just an arrangent from the base and didn't ask further questions.
But later, the more she thought about it, the more upset she beca. She had stabbed him, and despite everything, many questions remained unanswered. She had hastily presud him to be the murderer.
Those supposed clear pieces of evidence suddenly felt elusive. What if there was another hidden truth? Even if Li San said he had the opportunity to commit the cri, it couldn't be confird that he went to Yanhuang Soul then.
The more she thought, the fishier it seed, and Shen Zuimo decided to find Xiaofan again to clear things up face to face.
However, just as she was about to leave, she was stopped by mbers living in the sa apartnt.
"I'm just going out to buy sothing and will be right back."
"Miss Shen, sorry, but because your identity is a bit special, we can't let you go out alone. Just tell us what you need, and we'll buy it for you."
This was sothing understandable, and Shen Zuimo didn't think much about it. Since she couldn't go out, she'd just wait; surely, news from Yanhuang Soul would co soon.
Closing the door, Shen Zuimo ate the breakfast they had prepared long ago, feeling restless, and couldn't help but recall Xiaofan's appearance at that ti. Sothing must have gone wrong sowhere, but where?
Weird, where's the phone? Shen Zuimo couldn't find her mobile at once. When she opened the door again intending to borrow a phone, she unexpectedly found two people standing outside her room.
What was going on? Why stand outside the door? Were they here to guard her?
When seeking to borrow a phone, they were unwilling to lend her one, claiming that during missions, phones must remain off.
That wouldn't have been an issue normally, but they weren't on a mission now; it was clearly rest ti, so why not turn on the phone?
Shen Zuimo wasn't a foolish woman; it was just that at that mont, her mind was too muddled to suspect these people in front of her. Now, rethinking everything, she suddenly realized a terrifying possibility: Lingze approached her deliberately, and these people outside might not be mbers of Yanhuang Soul.
To confirm her thoughts, Shen Zuimo lightly knocked on the room's door a few tis, intermittently, one after another, fast then slow...
The door opened, and a man looked at Shen Zuimo strangely and asked blandly, "Why are you knocking?"
"Hmm? I wanted to buy sothing."
"Buy what?"
"You don't know?"
"You didn't tell ."
"Oh, right, I didn't tell you..."
'Whoosh...'
Just as Shen Zuimo finished speaking, a cold flash imdiately flickered. Without giving the opponent any ti to react, she lethally struck him down with a knife.
Don't know? How could that be. What Shen Zuimo used just now was a special code of Yanhuang Soul, sothing learned at the beginning of the new training period. No matter who you are, even if Ye Xiaofan joined later, you would have to learn it. And you say you can't understand what my knocking code was about? That could only an you aren't one of Yanhuang Soul's people.
The man slowly fell, and Shen Zuimo gently supported him, laying him softly on the floor.
"Hmm? What's going on?"
Outside, another person seemingly realized that his companion suddenly grew silent and was about to co in to see what was happening.
'Whoosh.'
Shen Zuimo, being a professional assassin, faced no surprises in assassinating soone unawares. Just, how long has it been since she last killed soone? Her technique seed to have beco rusty.
Blood sprayed out, yet Shen Zuimo's eyes remained as composed as ever.
Two down, five to go. They were sitting in the hall. How should she get rid of these five altogether?
Thinking of this, Shen Zuimo held her pajamas and walked towards the bathroom upon opening the door.
Seeing Shen Zuimo co out, the five in the living room all turned their gaze towards her.
"Hey, where're those two?"
"Smoking on the balcony," Shen Zuimo casually provided an excuse, then continued towards the bathroom.
"Smoke what, didn't we tell them... I'm going to check..."
"Hey, how co there's no hot water? Soone help take a look." At this mont, Shen Zuimo, who had walked into the bathroom, suddenly called out.
The man who was about to go to the balcony felt a thrill at the sound of Shen Zuimo's call, as if he had imagined a beautiful scene, and turned around and walked over.
"Where?"
'Whoosh...'
She covered his mouth and firmly pinned him to the ground. Blood mixed with the hot shower water rushed into the drain.
The third one down, four to go. Watching as the man on the ground finally stopped moving, Shen Zuimo ca to the bathroom door again: "Can soone lend a hand here? Is there a pair of pliers?"
"Hey, I'm coming..."
"What are you doing coming? Go find pliers; I'll take a look."
The two imdiately started bickering, but it seed the one who went to find the pliers didn't hold a position as high as the man walking towards the bathroom.
Nonetheless, it makes no difference who cos first, for who cos first dies first.
"Huh?" The man imdiately noticed the corpse on the floor upon entering the bathroom and prepared to shout aloud. His mouth was suddenly covered, and a sharp knife was driven straight into his heart from behind.
Three left...
"Hey, Miss Shen, couldn't find pliers, will a wrench do?"
"Hmm, bring it to …just hand it over. It's too cramped inside."
"No worries, I'll co in and see what needs doing."
"Oh, then I'll co out first..."
Shen Zuimo obscured the doorway, then slowly walked out. The man seed slightly disappointed seeing Shen Zuimo co out, still hoping to take advantage of sothing.
As he gently pushed open the door intending to enter, the sll of blood imdiately hit his nose. Upon seeing the bloodstains all over, he instantly realized sothing was wrong, but...
"Two left..."
Shen Zuimo tidied her clothes; fortunately, no blood had stained her. She then broke into a light jog, heading straight out of the living room.
"Hey, what are you doing? Let go..."
She shouted as she ran out of the living room in a panic.
The two remaining individuals quickly rose, looking at Shen Zuimo in confusion. Shen Zuimo imdiately approached them, feigning a fearful expression.
"Bastard, what did you do to her in there?" The speaker had a high status, brimming with anger as he attempted to head towards the bathroom.
But, why hasn't anyone co out from the bathroom? Where was everyone?
'Thud' A strange sound ca from behind, and as the man turned back... Shen Zuimo's enchanting face appeared behind him, and before he could speak, his throat was swiftly cut. He urgently clutched at it, but unable to breathe, he gradually collapsed, convulsing as he slowly tasted death.
