The one secretly keeping an eye on Xu Shi was naturally Lin Yue.
Since making up her mind to carry out the decapitation operation, she has been keeping a close watch on the target for the past few days.
Then Lin Yue realized... that this was indeed very difficult to achieve.
Xu Shi's whereabouts these days have been almost flawless, and he goes back and forth between the company and his residence every day.
Oh, this.
Wasn't he supposed to be a playboy?
Whose spoiled brat has such a regular lifestyle?
Whether it was the headquarters building of "Snake Ring", Xu Shi's private residence, or his modified bulletproof executive car, the girl alone and with the little equipment she had, had no chance of breaking through.
hiss.
However, Lin Yue was quite persistent. Even so, she did not give up but tried her best to find opportunities.
Today the opportunity has arrived.
Xu Shi did not go to the company, but went to the hospital instead.
The girl dared not delay and narrowed the surveillance area to follow them.
To be fair, compared to other places, hospitals are always less secure, making it easier to launch attacks.
The problem is that Xu Shi has Su Lin by his side almost every step of the way.
As one of the core members of "Spark" in the past, he knew this woman, Lin Yue, to some extent and knew that she was not easy to deal with.
With her present, my chances of success are still very slim.
It seems we can only wait a little longer... Lin Yue bit her lip and sighed inwardly.
But just then, she saw Xu Shi say something to Su Lin, and then Su Lin bowed to him before rushing into the hospital building.
Xu Shi, meanwhile, tossed his car keys and headed straight for the underground parking garage.
Um? !
They broke up?
Although she didn't know the specifics, this undoubtedly gave Lin Yue hope.
It couldn't possibly be because of her, right? She had been concealing herself with "optical camouflage" and didn't think the other party could find her.
Logically speaking, an assassin should always be sufficiently cautious and consider all possibilities of any action the target might take.
But Lin Yue also had to consider whether this was her only chance in this lifetime.
After a moment of silence, she finally made up her mind to follow them.
She was confident that she could strike hard if given the chance, and if not, she would have room to maneuver under the protection of her abilities.
However, she soon realized that she might have been worrying too much—Su Lin had gone somewhere and hadn't returned yet, and Xu Shi certainly didn't seem to have discovered her.
It seemed he had some urgent business to attend to and instructed Su Lin to do it, while he prepared to drive back alone first.
Then there's no problem.
Using the dim light of the underground parking garage, the girl's figure became even more concealed. She silently drew the alloy dagger strapped to her thigh and, holding her breath, slowly approached Xu Shi.
However.
Just then.
Xu Shi suddenly stopped, as if realizing something, and turned around, pulling out a small pistol from the inner pocket of his suit jacket.
The gun was pointed directly at Lin Yue's location.
……Why?
Has he... discovered me?
Impossible! How could this be?!
In the instant the girl was taken aback, Xu Shi smiled slightly and pulled the trigger without the slightest hesitation.
Bang~
Before she could react, Lin Yue instinctively dodged, but she was still a step too slow. Although she avoided a vital spot, the bullet still pierced through her shoulder blade.
Blood splattered, and the excruciating pain in her shoulder made it difficult for her to maintain her abilities. Her figure appeared vaguely, like a hologram.
Then, another figure appeared behind her.
It was Su Lin.
Without any further words, a swift and decisive chop fell, and Lin Yue instantly lost her ability to resist. With a muffled groan, her body went limp.
Utter defeat!
"Young Master, are you alright?"
After doing all this, Su Lin finally asked.
"If you had arrived a moment later, she might have chopped my head off."
Xu Shi put away his pistol and joked with a grin.
"...Then why are you doing such a dangerous thing?"
Su Lin pursed her lips and retorted irritably.
"How else can she take the bait?"
Xu Shi shrugged, indicating that it was just a joke. With Su Lin around, he wasn't worried about his safety.
More than anything, it was to test his mental strength... At least this thing was very mysterious, it actually allowed him to sense the ethereal killing intent on Lin Yue's body and thus determine her location.
I have a feeling that after the "upgrade", the improvement will be reflected in all aspects.
However, he was also somewhat surprised. It really was her?
To be honest, from a rational point of view, he didn't really think Lin Yue would attempt to assassinate him alone at this critical juncture.
Isn't this just like a moth drawn to a flame... Little sister, how could you dare to do that?
However, he could roughly guess the cause and effect—most likely, she didn't want to see the person she admired living under the roof of her enemy, or perhaps she wanted to prove herself, so she took the risk.
Anyway, this definitely doesn't mean he'll drown; he's not that brain-dead.
It's a pity for the little assassin who's caught in a dilemma; not only did her mission fail, but she also fell into the clutches of the villainous big bastard.
So, love can make people lose their minds (sigh).
"Tie him up and take him back."
Xu Shi sighed regretfully and gave the instructions softly.
"Um."
Su Lin took out the restraint straps, tied Lin Yue up tightly, and then stuffed her into the trunk.
