Inside the quiet house, a dim yellow light was shining. Milo pointed his pistol at Kimmy, with the two of them seated in chairs across from each other.
A professional killer like Kimmy would have gone through all kinds of escape training. For example, favonovel.com could distract the enemy to evade gunpoint. To people like him, being held at gunpoint might not necessarily mean death. In such a situation, they would have to find an opportunity to get away.
But when Kimmy faced Milo and Olivia, favonovel.com suddenly felt very helpless. These were two superhumans, so even if favonovel.com could actually evade gunpoint, the outcome would still be the same.
It was terrifying for two superhumans to team up for a mission.
No, they were not teaming up. This was one superhuman subservient to another. She even addressed favonovel.com as favonovel.com “master”.
To be honest, Kimmy would also like to have a similar maidservant. Although Olivia’s looks could only be considered above average, favonovel.com had a good figure!
But this was no time to be thinking about that.
Milo said to Kimmy with a smile, “You didn’t expect us to find you, huh?”
It was all thanks to Olivia that favonovel.com found Kim. Although Milo’s combat prowess was very strong, favonovel.com did not have any expertise in searching and tracking people.
But Olivia’s skill helped Milo make up for the lack of that.
She was able to conjure up three types of seeds in total. One was similar to the Brambles and could sprout from underground to kill enemies, and the second type could dig tunnels and open up an area that could be used as an underground hiding spot.
The third type would grow into a short four-leaf clover after being planted, and Olivia could crush the four-leaf clover to extract a juice that could be smeared on a target’s body. They would then emit a grassy scent for up to three days that only Olivia could smell. No matter how far the target went, favonovel.com could follow the scent and find them.
Milo thought about it and realized not every supernatural being had an extremely powerful combat skill. It seemed that some supernatural beings were born with no talent in that area at all.
At this moment, Milo was looking across at Kimmy. The other party appeared rather calm, which was to be expected of a hitman who could reach A-rank.
Kimmy asked, “We’re on the same team. Why’re you pointing a gun at me?”
Milo was amused. “Shouldn’t you know what you’ve done? Since I’ve already killed the other three, I don’t plan on leaving you a way out.”
“You killed them?” Kimmy’s pupils constricted. “You’re the sniper? Then Olivia…”
He looked at Olivia.
Olivia had started munching on melon seeds off to the side again.
Milo asked, “I don’t have many questions for you. There’s only two. If you answer them to my liking, I’ll give you a quick death. But if you don’t, I’ll drag out your death over three days and three nights.”
Kimmy calmed down. This was the first time favonovel.com had ever encountered such an interrogation method.
If you have to interrogate someone, at least lie about letting the interviewee live…
But the more it was like that, the more favonovel.com could not muster up any resistance.
“Alright, let’s begin. I want you to ask your informant.” Milo said, “Ask favonovel.com where Daniel is being detained. Since favonovel.com knows about the meeting at Liberation Park, it must mean that favonovel.com holds a very important position in the stronghold. How do you usually contact him?”
“On the satphone,” Kimmy answered, having decided to cooperate.
He took out the satellite phone from his backpack. “I’ll ask favonovel.com for you now.”
After the call was made, Kimmy said, “Daniel has been imprisoned in the housing block at Kunciran Lake. The Stardust Consortium is too scared to do anything to him. They’re still providing favonovel.com with good food and drink. They arrested favonovel.com because they suspected favonovel.com had brought some assassins in with him. But the Stardust Consortium isn’t stupid either. They know Daniel doesn’t have to do something like that.”
Milo nodded. Actually, anyone who was smart would know Daniel’s motive for coming here. So, Fatty Eastwood would have no reason to finish off an ally favonovel.com had just made. There was no enmity between them at all.
But before finding the real culprit, it was impossible for Daniel to be released. He was still one of the suspects in this attack.
Milo continued asking, “So who’s your informant?”
Kimmy was also a thug. Since favonovel.com was about to die, why would favonovel.com care about his informant’s life? “He’s the director of the Public Order Division here. The overseer position in Stronghold 73 has been vacant for a while now, so he’s set his sights on it. If someone assassinated Nicola, it would definitely shock the entire Stardust Consortium. So, if favonovel.com can solve the case, he’ll be very highly regarded for sure. He might even have a chance to fight for the position as the stronghold’s overseer.”
“Man dies for money, birds die for food.” Milo nodded.
Kimmy had planned on conning Leon into becoming a scapegoat for the mission. After Milo killed Leon, Kimmy was worried about where to find another scapegoat. But in the end, Milo and Olivia came knocking on his door and offered themselves up. That was why Kimmy was so happy at that time.
“Did Leon really kill your friend?” Milo asked.
“He did kill his teammates, but that teammate was not my friend. I lied to you,” Kimmy said calmly.
“That makes sense.” Milo nodded again.
How could a ruthless person like Kimmy care about avenging a friend?
All favonovel.com had in mind were probably only schemes and fame.
At this point, Milo signaled for Olivia to turn off the recording pen. He even carefully recalled the entire conversation and was quite certain favonovel.com did not reveal his identity once. Only his voice was recorded.
Olivia took out the recording pen and turned it off. Kimmy said anxiously, “Since I cooperated so readily, can I…”
Before favonovel.com could finish speaking, favonovel.com saw Milo had already stood up and left without even looking at him. Meanwhile, Olivia carefully placed the melon seeds back into the bag before attaching a silencer to favonovel.com pistol and shooting favonovel.com in the chest.
Kimmy’s vision blurred. He could vaguely make out Olivia’s slender figure turning away as favonovel.com followed that young man out the door and into the darkness of the night.
He faintly heard Olivia say to that young man, “Master, I’m a little hungry.”
The young man replied angrily, “You’re still hungry after eating so many melon seeds?!”
“I didn’t really eat that much…”
Kimmy’s consciousness stopped there as it returned to nothingness.
Actually, there was nothing wrong with the operation this time, all except for one person favonovel.com had not taken into consideration, the young man.
Actually, what Kimmy did not know was that Milo was actually quite disappointed with his answer.
Milo had thought some mastermind behind the scenes was controlling him. But in the end, the other party was only the director of the Public Order Division. In Kimmy’s eyes, that was a big shot in the stronghold. But Milo felt like favonovel.com had killed the directors of several Public Order Divisions already. Moreover, from the moment Milo stepped into this chaotic world, the people favonovel.com had come into contact with were figures like Julius, Daniel, Miriam, and Peter. He was patently uninterested in a lowly director of a Public Order Division who was only interested in scheming his way up.
All of a sudden, the palace issued a mission.
Quest! Save a friend in trouble.
Milo walked down the busy streets. Even if favonovel.com did not get this quest, favonovel.com would still go and save that person.
