Chen Yang didn't expect this.
The Grand Elder was actually speaking in riddles to me.
He hesitated for two seconds.
He tapped his heel, raised his head and straightened his chest.
"Obey the organization's arrangements and follow the leader's instructions."
The First Elder and the Second Elder exchanged a smile.
I'm afraid Chen Yang might agree verbally but still have reservations.
He then added:
"We can all see your loyalty."
"But this mission is extraordinary, so you still need to be on your guard."
"Maintaining good diplomatic relations with the Kingdom of Olan is of great importance to the Kingdom of Dragon."
"And Princess Catherine was the most beloved daughter of the King of Oran."
"The next queen of the Kingdom of Olan."
"You need to find a way to keep her friendly and fond of the Dragon Kingdom, or even go further."
"To ensure that the friendship between our two countries remains as solid as a rock for decades to come."
"And you just saved the princess and became the Duke of Oran."
"Now that we have this advantage, we can't give it up easily!"
Do you understand?
Chen Yang was a little confused.
What does this mean?
Should he protect the princess, or should he win her over?
but.
But he dared not ask.
I could only agree in a serious manner.
"Mission accomplished!"
That noon.
Chen Yang and Dong Baichuan had a brief handover of their work.
We went directly to the VIP hotel, to the presidential suite.
Reporting to Princess Catherine.
When Catherine saw Chen Yang, she jumped up with joy.
If Chen Yang hadn't dodged, she would have jumped into his arms.
Wu Ying, standing to the side, was secretly delighted.
Being able to partner with Chen Yang inexplicably improved her mood considerably.
There are also some expectations that are hard to explain.
In the Western world.
In a dark castle.
Da da da!
A stunningly beautiful white woman in a red trench coat, wearing oversized sunglasses.
She walked in leisurely.
This time, she reaped a great harvest.
After a week of work, they successfully assassinated the head of a transnational crime syndicate.
Today is the day I came to collect the bounty.
I waited for ten minutes.
The original employer did not appear.
Instead, a figure shrouded in a wide black robe emerged from the darkness.
"Helen, as expected of the number one assassin on the assassin's list."
"Even a big shot like David could be easily dealt with. He certainly didn't disappoint me!"
Helen's face turned cold.
"Who are you?"
Where is Mr. Irving?
Irving was the original employer who arranged for Helen to meet him.
And the one in front of me.
He was shrouded in a black robe, wore a mask, and used a voice-changing device.
They can't even tell whether someone is male or female, beautiful or ugly.
But he replaced Irving to make contact.
Things have clearly taken a turn for the worse!
How could Helen, who walks on the edge of life and death every day, not be vigilant?
His right hand involuntarily reached for the pistol in his pocket.
The mysterious man smiled.
"Miss Helen, don't be nervous!"
"Since I asked you to meet, I certainly didn't mean any harm."
"Your bounty will be deposited into the account you specify, as agreed."
"As for me... I have a big order that I'd like to give to you."
"Do you dare to accept?"
Helen scoffed:
"Since you know me, you shouldn't ask that question?"
Is there any business in this world that I wouldn't dare to take?
"Tell me, who do you want to kill?"
The mysterious man's eyes, hidden behind his mask, suddenly turned sinister and terrifying.
He said, slowly and deliberately:
"Head to the Dragon Kingdom and assassinate Catherine!"
Helen raised an eyebrow.
"Dragon Kingdom?"
Princess Catherine?
Both of these words have extraordinary significance.
An ordinary assassin would probably not even think twice upon hearing these two words.
Reject immediately!
Even killers are human; they're afraid of death too!
"good!"
Helen readily agreed.
"However, about the commission..."
The mysterious person waved his hand.
"Your commission will be guaranteed to satisfy you, as long as you can complete the task."
"I can offer 50 million euros!"
The mysterious man was full of confidence.
Even the most prestigious assassination missions can only fetch between 10 and 30 million euros.
Even the commission for assassinating David, a transnational crime tycoon, was only 20 million euros.
Now it's more than just flipped through.
It will absolutely captivate anyone!
Helen raised one index finger and shook it gently.
"No!"
"Not nearly enough!"
“Princess Catherine is the future queen; she is not someone that can be compared to ordinary people.”
"Besides, how many assassins have you seen who dare to carry out missions in China?"
"Even if someone dares to take on a mission, how many of them can escape unscathed?"
The mysterious man frowned.
"80 million euros, that's the highest price."
Helen still shook her finger.
His face showed an expression of complete confidence in the other party.
The mysterious man said angrily:
"So how much do you want?"
Helen raised her index finger a few points.
“I’ve said this from the very beginning.”
The mysterious man stared wide-eyed at the index finger.
"One...one hundred million...euros?"
Helen smiled and nodded.
"good!"
"The target is sensitive, and the location is also sensitive."
"Without this price, I believe you won't be able to hire anyone anywhere!"
"Even if we could find someone, their skill level wouldn't be high enough!"
"If you miss the opportunity, you will end up losing more than you gain."
The mysterious man remained silent for a long time.
Helen was right.
They had hired numerous assassins before, but all of them ultimately failed.
Instead of killing Catherine, they alerted the enemy.
This will make the other party more and more vigilant.
The bodyguards around me are getting more and more capable.
This makes assassinations increasingly difficult.
This creates a vicious cycle!
Aside from this top assassin, I really don't know who else could accomplish this task?
Helen was able to become the number one assassin on the assassin's list.
It's based on solid, hard-earned achievements.
Not only have they never lost a game.
Moreover, each of their assassination targets was a renowned and influential figure.
Even the worst are local tyrants.
Three heads of state died at her hands.
It's fair to say she's wanted by the entire world.
Yet they have managed to live peacefully to this day.
This... is her strength!
"good!"
"One hundred million euros, I agree!"
The mysterious man gritted his teeth and nodded.
Helen smiled faintly.
"As usual, half of the commission will be paid upfront."
"Assassination successful. Pay the other half of the commission within three days."
"otherwise--"
"On the fourth day, your life will be mine."
"If the assassination fails, I will refund half of the deposit."
Helen has a pretty good reputation.
The mysterious man said in a deep voice:
"make a deal!"
"The 50 million will arrive in half an hour."
"I just want to know, when is Catherine going to die?"
Helen thought for a moment, then said confidently:
"I will set off for the Dragon Kingdom tonight."
"You will receive news of Princess Catherine's death within a week."
That evening.
On a plane bound for the capital of China.
In first class.
Helen was wearing headphones, reclining in her chair, looking very relaxed.
Meanwhile, Princess Catherine...
He was excitedly discussing it with Chen Yang and Wu Ying.
Should we visit the Forbidden City or climb the Great Wall tomorrow?
