Ke Xue: Ai-chan and I have an agreement

Shiina Yuichi was very grateful for the help from the poison bird.

In the past, when he wanted to do something, he needed to allocate resources, and he would resort to all sorts of tricks and deceptions to achieve this.

Amuro Tooru was one of the unlucky ones.

Now, whenever I make a request, the poisonous bird will always find a way to fulfill it.

His internal security level was even set to the highest level, so that in the event of any crisis, the Khrav Armed Forces would prioritize rescuing him.

This is enough to show how much the poisonous bird valued him.

However, this emphasis also put a lot of psychological pressure on Shiina Yuichi.

After all, there was nothing more he could do for either the poisonous bird or Hlav.

In fact, Shiina Yuichi was well aware that Zashiki's actions were most likely due to the older brother's guilt towards his younger brother.

But if you really think about it, it wasn't the poisonous bird's fault that he was abducted in the first place.

The years of searching have deprived the pheasant of its pampered life.

There's no question of owing anything.

Yuichi Shiina would not have any complaints.

Even if his life isn't great, he won't deny anyone or anything he's been through.

If the poisonous bird hadn't found itself, it might have gone even further down this path.

Rather than complaining, Shiina Yuichi didn't say it, but he was extremely grateful in his heart.

Thanks to the bird's perseverance over the years, he knows he is not alone.

Therefore, Shiina Yuichi did not want to cause trouble for the Zashiki.

Along the long highway, on both sides are vast and boundless wilderness.

Yuichi Shiina leaned against the window, his eyes still sleepy.

However, Di An, in the driver's seat, was still full of energy. Even though he had changed into casual clothes, he still gave people a rugged and tough feeling.

The others were ordered to disperse by Dian and enter Vladivostok in batches.

"Dian, how much longer?" Shiina Yuichi asked with a yawn.

"Soon, in half an hour at most, we'll be able to enter Vladivostok territory." Di An glanced at the rapidly passing road signs and made a rough assessment.

Upon hearing this, Shiina Yuichi remained silent for a while, then stared out the window listlessly.

It's definitely a different place. I've driven for so long and haven't seen many cars. If this were a small place like Japan, a kilometer would be stuck in traffic for a long time, with horns blaring like firecrackers.

Here, you can even step into the gas tank without any problem.

"Aren't you sleepy?" Shiina Yuichi asked sincerely.

"It's alright," Di An replied with a smile. "Compared to the previous missions, this feels like a vacation."

"However, I will absolutely not let anything happen to you."

Shiina Yuichi raised an eyebrow slightly, and his lips curled into a smirk.

Wow, you're quite the smooth talker.

Unfortunately, I'm straight.

Di An was unaware of Shiina Yuichi's chaotic thoughts.

After driving for a while, we finally encountered a few cars.

Shiina Yuichi lost all desire to sleep.

Just then, a silver-gray Mazda drove towards us.

"You have good taste..." Shiina Yuichi hadn't finished his teasing remark.

In the instant we brushed past each other, a long-lost chill suddenly appeared, making my hair stand on end.

The longer you work as an assassin, the more prominent your ability to sense danger becomes—a survival strategy that evolves from habit into instinct.

Just like the survival and evolution of the natural world...

Sometimes, just a glance is enough for Yuichi Shiina to figure out whether the other person is like him or not.

And now...

Shiina Yuichi turned to look in the rearview mirror and asked abruptly, "Dian, do you know what hunters usually do after they catch their prey?"

"Um... use a rope to tie it?" Di An was a little confused, but still answered honestly.

“Not entirely. Some hunters choose to bleed their prey when they catch large animals, rendering them unable to resist,” Shiina Yuichi replied.

"Hmm... so what?" Di An didn't quite understand what Shiina Yuichi meant.

As soon as I turned my head, I noticed that Shiina Yuichi's handsome face had a strange expression, especially that smile that was mixed with a hint of murderous intent and joy, which was creepy.

"The hunt is about to begin! / Get ready to hunt!"

Along with Shiina Yuichi's voice, the driver in the Mazda also spoke.

The blue-eyed man wearing a baseball cap smiled broadly, "Good luck, Dimi."

"What's going on?" The blond, dreadlocked man in the passenger seat, who was puffing on a cigarette, frowned and asked.

"The target has appeared." The blue-eyed man drove the car, drifted and fishtailed, then sped up to catch up. "Haha, I told you the priest was right, what a pity."

Upon hearing this, Dimi showed his dissatisfaction and muttered, "I know, I know. I'll bring a bouquet of flowers to apologize after the mission is over."

"Oh, that's only right. Perhaps you could also look after the nuns there. That blonde girl is really something..."

Click!

The pistol is loaded.

The dark muzzle of the gun was pointed at the blue-eyed man's temple. Dimi's expression was cold. "Roy, were you following me?"

“Oh, my friend, how could this be?” Even with a gun pointed at him, Roy still had a grin on his face. “I just happened to see it. But Demi, don’t get emotional, it will put you in danger. That priest is no good, but we… aren’t much better off.”

"That woman might have only used her body to get rid of you..."

Before he could finish speaking, a bullet whizzed past his forehead, flew out the window, and disappeared without a trace.

"Fuck, you're insane!" Roy, not expecting Dimi to actually fire, instinctively gripped the steering wheel and steadied the car.

"Please don't talk nonsense, Roy."

Dimi's warning voice came through, causing Roy's smile to gradually fade.

Realizing his partner wasn't joking, Roy understood something.

He's getting a new partner again.

What a pity, Dimi, you were such a good guy.

"Alright, alright, just kidding. As long as you're happy, that's fine. Stop fooling around, the mission is more important."

Roy changed his attitude, but Dimi didn't notice the murderous intent in his words. He snorted coldly and then put away his weapon.

While this little incident was happening, Shiina Yuichi had already confirmed their existence.

Inside the car, Di An glanced at the rearview mirror, her expression quite unpleasant.

There are quite a few people within the armed forces who are eyeing Shiina Yuichi. In their eyes, he is a big piece of meat, and they are very envious of him.

He was just expressing his determination, and it hasn't even been a few minutes, and now they're doing this to him?

I really don't know how to live or die!

"Relax, Di'an."

Seemingly aware that Di An was in a bad mood, Shiina Yuichi offered a lighthearted word of comfort, as if he didn't quite understand who the real target was.

"Sir? What should we do next?" Di An ignored Shiina Yuichi's comforting words, her mind and eyes filled with only one thought.

Kill the people in the car behind!

In response, Shiina Yuichi could only praise Di An's professionalism, saying that she was extremely reliable.
