According to the decision made at the dinner party, Burton organized some elite members of the society and prepared to kidnap the sister of Gregos, the captain of the Security Bureau hunter team, on the way home from school, as a means to get rid of Gregos. This should have been just a simple action, the target of the kidnapping was just an ordinary 13-year-old girl, and his elite men should not be able to fail.
However, up to now, there is still no news from the hijacking team, and no one has returned, which makes many core members of the Holy Communion, including Burton, increasingly anxious.
"It's been several days... There's no news at all. Did we fail? Did the Security Bureau know about our actions and set up an ambush? ... No, that's impossible. Those guys must have accidentally alerted Huiqiu when they took action, and Huiqiu took care of them all... Damn it, I told them not to make any big noise around the school, but they forgot everything when they were executing the order!"
Rubbing his temple, Burton frowned and thought, the anxiety in his heart became more and more difficult to calm down. Although those who lost were ordinary members, they were also capable people who had been trained with great effort. It would be a huge blow to lose them all at once.
Now Burton and other core members have confirmed for several days that it was Huiqiu who interfered with their actions. They are thinking about when to contact the other party. Burton is also thinking about how to deal with Huiqiu. A series of recent situations have made it difficult for him to calm down his anxiety.

䀴At this moment, outside his house, deep in the alley, there were two figures hiding behind the corner of the house, silently staring at the door of Room 22 in the distance.
Both figures were men. They were all in tattered clothes, covered in blood, and had bandages wrapped around many parts of their bodies. They were obviously wounded.
At the feet of the two men, a small coffin was placed quietly.
One of the men looked up at the sun in the sky, then looked down at his wrist and saw that the time displayed on his watch was 8:40 am.
"here we go……"
Murmuring in low voices, the two men lifted up the small coffin on the ground with all their strength, walked forward step by step, and walked all the way to the door of No. 22.
Then they put the coffin down, and one of them began to walk up to the door and knock at a specific rhythm.
After knocking on the door, a voice came from behind it.
"What are you seeking..."
After hearing the sound, the man coughed and then answered.
"Eternal satisfaction..."
Then, a small window opened on the door No. 22, and a pair of eyes popped out, looked at the visitor's face, and then made a surprised sound.
"Thomas? And Oliver? It's you? You're back? Where are the others?"
"Ahem... It's me, open the door and let me in. Our mission was successful but we were attacked halfway... I'm afraid the others are in danger, but we have successfully brought the target back!"
Coughing up blood, the man named Thomas spoke with difficulty, and the voice behind the door immediately responded.
"Wait a moment, I'll go inform Mr. Burton!"
Then there was the sound of footsteps from behind the door. Thomas didn't have to wait long before the door in front of him suddenly opened and the gatekeeper standing at the door said anxiously.
"Come in quickly. Mr. Burton is waiting for you upstairs. He told you to carry the things up quickly."
"Ahem...Okay, but we're both injured. It might be difficult to carry the things up the stairs..."
"Then let us do it, and you follow behind..."
As he spoke, the gatekeeper called down three more men from upstairs, who lifted the small coffin together and walked up the stairs. Thomas and his companion Oliver followed closely behind them.
After a while, Thomas and Oliver, the four men carrying the coffin, and the small coffin entered Burton's study together.
Burton saw Thomas and Oliver entering the room and could not help but stand up.
"It's you two...where are the others!?"
"Ahem...Mr. Burton, we succeeded in our mission but suffered a lot of attacks. The current situation of others is unclear, but we protected the target and escaped successfully. We were delayed on the road for some reasons..."
As he spoke, Thomas opened the small coffin that had been placed on the ground, and then a shaved girl appeared in front of everyone, sleeping with her eyes closed in the coffin. Burton's eyes lit up when he saw the scene in the coffin, and he immediately said yes.
"You two will tell me the details later..."
As he spoke, Burton walked to his bookshelf, turned the candlestick mechanism and opened the dark room behind the bookshelf, revealing a bloody altar.
Burton now has to inform other core members of this news immediately. Now the entire communion is anxious about this matter.
Burton walked quickly towards the altar, standing on the other side, Thomas and Oliver watched this silently.
Looking at Burton's back, the painful expressions on their faces suddenly disappeared, replaced by chilling indifference.
Then…Thomas and Oliver quickly reached into their clothes, each quickly pulled out a revolver, and quickly pointed them at their companions.
Without any warning, two people suddenly attacked. One pointed a gun at Burton's back, and the other pointed a gun at other men around him, and then they continued to shoot.
“Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!”
Suddenly, there was a burst of gunfire in the study, and bullets flew everywhere. The four men who were originally waiting in the study were shot continuously at close range by their companions. They were caught off guard one after another and were shot one after another. Burton, who was walking towards the altar, was also shot several times in an instant, and his eyes were suddenly filled with bloodshot.
