This is yet another person who has come on a mission.
Lin Ziming wasn't surprised by this news, and asked again, "Who is your employer?"
Hire, employer?
How the hell am I supposed to know who my employer is? I didn't take the task directly from my employer!
The sniper's mind was screaming, but he dared not utter a sound.
He even had to find a way to convince the man that he genuinely didn't know anything about his employer.
"Sir, if I tell you, can you spare my life?"
Then, he didn't know which disc had broken, but he actually started haggling over the price.
Lin Ziming gave him a cold look. "Are you trying to negotiate with me?"
"No, no, I didn't, I'm not, I just want to live."
The sniper, emboldened by some unknown source, spoke quickly.
His vest was soaked with cold sweat.
Lin Ziming ignored him, "Say it if you want, or die if you don't."
As he spoke, he glanced in the direction of the martial arts school, where Lele was almost finished dealing with that group of people.
His calm tone immediately turned the sniper's face ashen.
He wanted to try to save himself, but he didn't dare after meeting the man's indifferent gaze.
Therefore, he quickly said, "I guess the employer is from the Andrei family."
He seemed afraid that the man in front of him wouldn't believe him, so he quickly said, "As far as I know, the Andrei family and the Hokfiel family have been searching for something."
What they are looking for is very likely in the little courtyard where you are living now.
However, it seems there is another force searching as well, so they did not act too recklessly.
Otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to successfully purchase that property.
Lin Ziming was speechless. They had looked at everything in the basement, but there was nothing of value.
In other words, some of the national treasures of the Flower Kingdom are quite valuable.
He had heard of these two families; surely they wouldn't be interested in something so small?
Well, if you add the gold, it can barely be considered somewhat substantial, but that's all; there's nothing more.
Lin Ziming nodded. "How much are we, husband and wife, worth?"
The sniper was pondering how to handle the situation when he suddenly heard these words, which nearly scared him to death.
Then, as a conditioned reflex, I blurted out, "Two hundred thousand US dollars."
Lin Ziming was genuinely surprised to hear this.
Keep in mind, this is only the late 1950s, okay?
Two hundred thousand US dollars is truly a huge sum of money.
In this day and age, that amount could buy quite a few manors and properties.
What were those people after that they were willing to spend so much money to take their lives?
Lin Ziming didn't know much about antiques and cultural relics, so he didn't think the things they acquired were worth the price.
If that batch of gold were exchanged for money, it would only amount to a few tens of thousands of US dollars at most.
He frowned. It seemed he would have to ask Lele later if there was anything particularly special among the things she had put away.
Just because they can't see something doesn't mean others don't care about it.
Well, we'll see. If Lele can find what the other person is looking for, then she can.
If you can't find it, perhaps you should visit those two families.
But before that, perhaps we could let this person go back and take a shot?
Thinking of this, Lin Ziming looked at him and asked calmly, "You want a chance to live?"
The sniper, who thought he was going to die today, almost went crazy with joy when he heard this.
So he kept saying, "Yes, yes!"
"Okay, I'll give you a chance."
When Lin Ziming said those words indifferently, the sniper could hardly believe his ears!
Is this person willing to let me off the hook?
He would have burst out laughing if circumstances allowed.
In fact, a smile of relief, as if he had survived a disaster, did indeed appear on his face.
However, the smile froze on his face within seconds.
Because he heard Mr. Lin continue coldly, "As long as you can kill any important member of either of the two families you mentioned, your life is yours."
Upon hearing this, the sniper almost cried.
Damn it, those two families are both long-established and powerful clans. Can he afford to offend them?
Sending him to kill those two families is worse than just killing him outright!
Lin Ziming seemed to have seen through his thoughts, so he said calmly, "It seems you've chosen to die right now."
"No, no, no, I'll go, I'll go!"
The sniper was so frightened by what he heard that his heart almost stopped.
It's much better to die sometime later than to die right now!
Besides, it's just killing one important member of their family. Why not just pick someone slightly more important?
And another thing is, after leaving this godforsaken place, he can choose not to complete the mission and instead hide away!
He didn't believe that someone could find him even at the ends of the earth.
Lin Ziming wasn't blind or stupid; he could tell to some extent what this person was up to.
However, he wasn't worried, as a tiny locator was silently placed on his body.
The tracking locators used in this way are far less expensive than the ones he gave Lele, so he can use them freely.
The biggest advantage of this simple locator is that it can be inserted into the skin, so you don't have to worry about losing it.
After doing all that, he calmly said, "Okay, you can go now."
He paused slightly before saying with a half-smile, "If you have any thoughts of running away, then you'll be in my hands again, and you'll have to bear the consequences."
It was just a small warning; whether he listened or not was up to him, as long as he could find him easily.
He can try to escape, but we'll see if he has the ability to do so.
The sniper, completely unaware that he had fallen into someone else's surveillance, kept assuring everyone that he would never run away.
Then he was released.
He left quickly, only stopping to catch his breath after he was very, very far away from Chinatown.
There was nothing we could do; that man was just too strange.
She didn't even know when he got next to her; he seemed like a ghost, disappearing without a trace.
He was somewhat frightened, thinking that his life was in danger today, but he didn't expect that the man had lost his mind and actually asked him to assassinate the people of those two major families.
He's not stupid; he wouldn't be foolish enough to assassinate such a powerful and influential figure that he couldn't afford to offend.
So, after thinking about it for a moment, he decided to leave immediately!
"Zi Mo, why did you let him go? Aren't you afraid he'll run away?"
Back at the martial arts school, Liu Shile had already sent that group of people away.
Upon seeing him arrive, Liu Shile asked in a low voice, still puzzled.
That man's eyes clearly indicated he was a troublemaker; it would be a miracle if he obediently went back to kill those two families.
Lin Ziming gave her a gentle pat on the head, a doting smile on his face, and said with absolute certainty, "He can't escape."
His smile almost made the female students in the martial arts school lose their focus, and even the male students were distracted.
He's so damn handsome and gentle!
Why would someone so handsome appear in front of them?
