The Beautiful CEO's Super Soldier King-Chapter 668 [Assassin Thousand Faces]
Even Jiang Tian, a man who had seen great turmoils, had never witnessed such a method of killing before: glasses that could penetrate the body was simply too terrifying.
Suddenly, Jiang Tian and Jiang Qi realized a problem: who made the move? Where is he?
The two of them scanned the room but did not find a fourth person. So, who had killed Bitter Ghost?
At this moment, whatever abilities Bitter Ghost possessed, they were likely nothing in front of the attacker.
"Hmm?" Jiang Tian suddenly realized a problem.
"Qi’er, you leave first. As for this matter, I will handle it!" Jiang Tian said aloud.
Jiang Qi, as if possessed, left the room. He had practically been scared out of his wits, and his face was still covered in blood.
After Jiang Qi left, Jiang Tian solemnly stood up, looked around, and said, "Sir, I know it’s you who has arrived. Could you please show yourself?" Jiang Tian even spoke in English.
"Hello, Mr. Jiang."
Suddenly, a voice came out of nowhere from behind Jiang Tian.
Click!
Jiang Tian’s heart suddenly sank. If the other party had wanted to kill him, he probably would have already turned into a corpse.
"Hello, Sir!"
Jiang Tian immediately adjusted his emotions and, still unsettled, turned around to speak.
The person now standing in front of Jiang Tian was none other than the foreigner who had just drunk pure distilled alcohol at the Love at First Sight restaurant.
He walked unhurriedly by, stepping over Bitter Ghost’s body, reached the door, took the glasses embedded in the wooden door, wiped the blood off with his hand, and put them back on his face.
Jiang Tian’s breathing became labored, his mouth dry, as he stared at the unkempt foreigner, a deep fear stirring within him.
"Mr. Thousand Faces, why are you here?" Jiang Tian mustered his courage to ask, having learned from Think Tank that the assassin before him was known by the codename "Thousand Faces."
Seeing that "Thousand Faces" did not reply, Jiang Tian continued, "Not only that but you also killed one of my useful subordinates."
"I was helping you!" Thousand Faces finally spoke.
"Helping me?" Jiang Tian was puzzled.
"Helping you discipline your brash son, to show him he is still as weak as an ant," Thousand Faces said with a smile.
Jiang Tian was stunned: "You heard our conversation just now? And you understand Divine Land language?"
Thousand Faces grinned: "Being an assassin, knowing several foreign languages provides more ways to survive. It’s just that I prefer my mother tongue, I never speak other languages."
Truly an unusual assassin, Jiang Tian thought to himself.
"Mr. Thousand Faces, were you in the room just now?" Jiang Tian curiously asked.
"You want to know where I was hiding, right? Concealing oneself is a basic skill for an assassin, failing that, he doesn’t deserve to be called an assassin," Thousand Faces said.
Jiang Tian’s heart was already swamped with shock. Yes, that was exactly what he was asking: when had Thousand Faces arrived?
He had been in his office all afternoon, and besides Jiang Qi, no one else had entered his office. Thousand Faces appeared as if out of thin air.
"Yes, then what is the purpose of Mr. Thousand Faces’s visit?" Jiang Tian asked.
Thousand Faces spoke up, "Need to increase the price. The target’s strength assessment was underestimated."
"You... you have been to Ye Chenfeng?" Jiang Tian blurted out.
"Correct, he is stronger than the information you provided, so the price must be increased! Moreover, I investigated, and the person who liaised with me was only your subordinate, so after finding your address, I came to see you myself," Thousand Faces said nonchalantly as he sat in Jiang Tian’s chairman’s seat.
"How much more?" Jiang Tian asked, his heart pounding in fear.
"Double it!" Thousand Faces spoke.
"Ah?" Jiang Tian was clearly shocked.
"What? Are you hesitating?" A pair of muddy eyes beneath Thousand Faces’ glasses swept over him.
A bone-chilling murderous aura penetrated deep into his bones, causing Jiang Tian to shiver uncontrollably.
Then, he clenched his teeth and said, "Fine, I agree. Double it!"
"Good, that’s the spirit of cooperation. I guarantee you’ll see the body within three days." Thousand Faces stood up, walked behind Jiang Tian, and patted him heavily on the shoulder.
"Thousand Faces, wait..."
But when Jiang Tian turned around, he found that the man had disappeared, as if he had vanished into thin air.
"Huff!"
Jiang Tian sat in the leather chair, breathing heavily, his forehead was covered in cold sweat.
"Someone, there’s something here that needs cleaning up!" Jiang Tian glanced at the corpse on the floor and dialed a number.
...
"Brother, sister, you two coming back together, really seeing this for the first time, so sweet, what were you two up to?"
Ye Chenfeng and Chu Qingxue returned to the villa, and Chu Qingfei looked at them with suspicion.
"Nothing much, just went to have dinner." Chu Qingxue said, but she still felt shy, as it was the first time she had dined out alone with a boy.
"Just the two of you?" Chu Qingfei became even more curious, sensing that something was off.
"Yes, Qingfei. Your sister treated me to a meal, a couples’ meal," Ye Chenfeng emphasized. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
"What? A couples’ meal?" Chu Qingfei exclaimed in a loud voice.
This left Ye Chenfeng and Chu Qingxue looking at her puzzled, "What’s wrong with a couples’ meal?"
"Nothing, you two are moving quite fast," Chu Qingfei forced a smile.
"Not bad!" Chu Qingxue smiled and entered her room.
Chu Qingfei quietly approached Ye Chenfeng and whispered, "Brother, is my sister chasing you?"
Ye Chenfeng spread his hands helplessly, "Looks like it, you know, after all, I am quite handsome."
"You’re so full of yourself. By the way, brother, could you go with me to the airport to pick someone up in a bit?" Chu Qingfei suddenly changed the subject.
"Qingfei, who are you going to pick up?" a curious voice asked, as Chu Qingxue gazed intently at the two.
Startled, Chu Qingfei replied, "Sister, it’s just a friend of mine."
"Oh!" Chu Qingxue nodded her head, "Then I’ll go with you. I don’t have anything else to do tonight anyway."
Chu Qingxue was very clever; she immediately thought it must be a friend from Chu Qingfei’s mysterious online connections, and he seemed to be looking for Ye Chenfeng. As long as she kept a close watch, she might not uncover the whole truth, but she could easily spot some clues.
Chu Qingfei: "..."
"Sure, no problem. We’ll go together tonight," Ye Chenfeng said.
Before that assassin was dealt with, he probably had to stay very close to the sisters, practically never leaving their side.
Although Chu Qingfei was quite helpless, there was no other way.
Chu Qingxue felt a faint sense of anticipation about going to the airport that evening, which piqued Ye Chenfeng’s curiosity. Chu Qingxue seemed somewhat impatient.
