Chapter 124 Departure



After the last table of people left, Lu Minzhi cleared the table, carefully wiped it clean, and then tidied everything up before taking the money he had saved to the bathhouse to freshen up.

The towering skyscrapers stood silently under the brilliant moonlight, a high-class ball was being held inside, with all sorts of celebrities moving about. A figure swaying in the moonlight climbed through a gap in the middle of the building. As dusk deepened, in this dark and windy night, no one would notice this slender shadow.

"Phew~, this building is so tall. I'm exhausted."

As she climbed dozens of meters above the ground, Mei complained that her plan for the night was to infiltrate a grand feast on this floor. Heroes have always found it hard to resist the allure of beautiful women, yet she was both a femme fatale and a shadowy assassin. No one could have imagined that such a seemingly delicate woman was actually an assassin capable of taking a dog's head from a hundred meters away.

Inside the building was a lavish, gilded banquet, gathering most of the upper class. Outside the building, she deftly used special climbing gear—wall-adhesive gloves—and a rope around her neck, watching the cold and gusts of wind to find the best spot. Half an hour later, she found the area near the restroom on this floor.

Mei landed gracefully on the ground, smiling brightly, "Perfect landing, now it's time to get to work."

Her final mission is to obtain the banquet's treasure—the Qishe Bracelet, a hereditary artifact passed down for millennia. Only then can she retire gracefully and live the ordinary life she has always imagined: three meals a day, tea, and a companion.

There happened to be a woman putting on makeup in the restroom. A figure appeared and disappeared in an instant, striking the woman's pressure points. The acupuncturist's skill in striking pressure points relies on keen observation and keen senses; with just a slight turn of the hand, the woman fainted. She then moved the woman to a stall, changed her into a woman's evening gown, and completed her disguise.

"Tsk, is this dress really that revealing? It's so low-class. It makes my sexiness look cheap. I guess I'll just have to make do." Mei thought with a hint of disdain.

She began applying makeup, her look mirroring the woman's. However, her features were like exquisitely sculpted jade, like a character from a movie, exuding an unapproachable aura. Completely integrating into a new environment is a basic skill for a professional assassin, and she began to become sensitive to her surroundings. The woman in the cubicle probably wouldn't wake up for at least three or four hours, so she confidently walked out.

"Goodnight, baby. It's another restless night, hehehehe~." With that, she disappeared into the distance.

Intelligence indicates that Mei's target protection measures today are not very strong. This seems like a windfall, but it is more like a trap that leads people into the abyss. However, she does not care. She is confident that she has absolute strength and experience. She already considers this snake-shaped bracelet worth two billion to be hers.

Mei was initially reluctant to take on the mission. The organization's higher-ups told her that if she accepted it, she could leave the organization and live the life she wanted. She no longer wanted to live such a dangerous life; she wanted to go to a quiet place with the warmth of everyday life and live the life of an ordinary person.

Mei looked around the hall with the keen senses of a fox hunting its prey. She spotted the bracelet in the center of the banquet, but her intuition, honed by past near-death experiences, told her that tonight was not going to be simple and that there might be many twists and turns. She needed to prepare in advance.

The bracelet sat in the center, as if its owner were flaunting its value. The target had been found, and now Mei would use her sex appeal as a cover to approach her target discreetly. She couldn't waste this dress, could she? This long dress was a sexy, backless red slit gown, completely exposing her beautiful figure. Her legs were slender and long, and the slit on the side of the skirt went all the way up to her thighs.

With a cat-like gait, Mei swayed and twisted, a seductive smile playing on her lips, instantly attracting the lustful gazes of a group of men. Mei's eyes, like those of a vixen, swept over the group of men, intently choosing a seemingly foolish man to use as a pawn. Her alluring charm captivated their attention.

Like a snake spirit reincarnated, she was extremely alluring. Her sexy emerald eyes were as bewitching as a snake demon. The beauty mark at the corner of her eye was charming. She was a combination of beauty and sexiness, yet she was the most terrifying existence in the organization, ranking first on the assassin list.

Mei could kill instantly, but her mission today wasn't to kill. All she needed to do was obtain this bracelet. The closer Mei got to the bracelet, the more she felt a mysterious force calling to her, something beckoning her to come closer.

Mei's body seemed to be being controlled and bewitched. She quickly covered her head and pinched her temples, trying to calm herself down. Finally, she saw the protected bracelet.

The bracelet really did look like a snake. The more she looked at it, the more eerie and unsettling it seemed. The snake's head on the bracelet looked like it was moving and staring at her. Mei suddenly felt a chill run down her spine.

She knew the call came from the bracelet. Could this bracelet have some connection to her? She immediately became cautious; this bracelet held some secret.

Mei gradually approached the bracelet. She casually picked a man who looked alright and leaned against him, placing her hand on his neck. Her fingernails were a little long. Mei gently scratched the back of the man's neck to seduce him, and the man looked at her with increasing infatuation.

“Honey, what’s your name? I’ve been in high society for years, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen you before.”

With a charming smile, she said, "Have I never seen such a handsome and charming man as you? Would you like to dance?"

Come here, baby.

She danced perfunctorily with the man, gracefully stepping to the slow, retro music. She seemed to be obsessed with dancing, her high heels scraping and stomping on the floor. She subtly led the man closer to the bracelet.

Completely oblivious, the man stared at her, infatuated, wanting to get closer to the beautiful snake and savor her sensuality. He couldn't resist extending his disgusting lips to kiss her. She subtly avoided him; she was getting closer and closer to the bracelet, a surge of excitement washing over her.

She hadn't expected to complete the task so easily today. She glanced at it several times out of the corner of her eye and noticed that the protection around the bracelet didn't seem that strong. There was an electric grid and a special tempered glass cover on the outside, and it was placed in a transparent box.

None of this posed a problem for Mei. Her operation had gone undetected this time; had it been exposed, she would have been under much tighter surveillance. Four bodyguards patrolled the four corners around the bracelet.
