"Hehehe~ Give up struggling, little beauty. I've already taken care of your bodyguards. By the time they find this secluded place, I'll be done for!"
The little girl, gagged and only able to sob and cry helplessly, was clearly not the target.
As for the remaining one...
Is there any need to think about it?
The smug target was about to lay his hand on the innocent little girl when, with a loud bang, the stainless steel door, unable to withstand the force of the kick, flew straight into the room, accompanied by a howling wind.
"It is a curse..."
The hunting target only had time to instinctively speak, and before he could even finish uttering the second sentence, he was hit squarely by the stainless steel door, feeling as if he had been struck by a high-speed train at full speed.
The look of utter disbelief remained on the target's face; he probably couldn't believe he had died so... until the very end.
Hasty!
[Hunter target Kinishik Reid killed.]
[Quest Reward: 5 Free Attribute Points.]
Cao Han was also a little stunned. His foot, which was halfway to kick the door, was still in mid-air when the system notification for killing the hunting target sounded.
"This one-star difficulty mission is way too... easy, isn't it?"
Chapter 27 This is what professionalism looks like! (Please continue reading)
Justice will come, though it may be late!
When Cao Han casually stepped inside, the entire room was in complete disarray, as if it had been hit by a typhoon.
The little girl, her hands and feet bound and her mouth gagged, stared blankly at what she was seeing, seemingly unable to believe her eyes.
No matter what, she was just an ordinary thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl. She had never seen such an exaggerated and violent scene before, and she was so frightened that she forgot to call for help for a moment.
"Earthquake! Earthquake!"
"What happened? Did something explode?!"
"Darling, run!"
"..."
Most of the buildings in the urban village are quite old, and they couldn't withstand Cao Han's tremendous efforts.
The door slammed into the hunting target, which then crashed solidly into the wall, becoming the final straw that broke the back of this already precarious old building.
After a series of shakes, obvious cracks appeared on the outer wall, which shows how exaggerated Cao Han's action was.
Panic spread rapidly among the remaining residents of the building, who were unaware of what was happening, and they rushed out of the building one by one.
As the one who started all of this, an awkward smile appeared on the face hidden in the shadow of the hood.
Having spent so much time in Nibelungen, he had grown accustomed to fighting pure-blooded dragons and elite hybrids, and later even went all out in several solo battles against Odin.
So much so that they couldn't adjust to the real world immediately.
"I'll untie you, then you can leave on your own. Don't mention me to anyone. Nod if you understand," Cao Han said, deliberately lowering his voice.
The little girl nodded eagerly.
It was only then that she snapped out of her daze and realized that she had been rescued!
Judging from the skillful rope binding technique, Cao Han could tell that the hunting target must be a "veteran" who deserved to die.
It's just that he died a little too quickly, letting this guy off easy. He didn't even have a chance to ask any of the questions he wanted to ask.
A hemp rope, about the thickness of a thumb, snapped in two with a gentle pull.
"I...I...Um...Thank you for saving me!"
The little girl, who had narrowly escaped death, tried to get up but her legs gave way and she collapsed to the ground. At that moment, waves of fear washed over her.
Cao Han thought that since he was a good person, he might as well go all the way and see that the little girl wouldn't recover anytime soon, so he decided to take her downstairs.
The little girl was clearly born into a wealthy family; even her tear-streaked face couldn't hide her delicate features.
Clearly, the target of the hunt, the kidnapping of this little girl, was carefully selected.
Just as he bent down, preparing to give her a princess carry with great ceremony, his ears twitched slightly, and he could clearly hear some distinctive footsteps approaching from all directions.
Thinking about the feeling of being watched the whole way...
Not wanting to cause any trouble or expose himself, Cao Han, who didn't care about anyone, took an unconventional path amidst the little girl's slightly disappointed gaze. Without hesitation, he jumped from the third-floor window and disappeared quickly.
"Quickly! Everyone, assemble at the target location immediately!"
"Captain, are you sure the commotion was caused by the target?"
"We could clearly hear that loud noise at the entrance of the village. Even if it wasn't our target, it must have been caused by a hybrid that was suspected of having awakened its bloodline."
So no matter what it is, we must go and check it out. Everyone, be extremely vigilant, and call for help immediately if you encounter any danger!
Through the headset, Captain Renault's calm and composed response was heard.
Their team, which came to China on a mission, consisted of only 10 people. Apart from him, who had an A-grade bloodline, the rest were mainly support personnel with B-grade bloodlines. There were only three actual combatants.
According to Minister Schneider's instructions regarding the objectives of this operation: the seemingly harmless targets actually possess the power to instantly kill them; this operation will primarily focus on observation!
If it conflicts with the objective...
Surrender is permitted!
If the other, arrogant, self-proclaimed elite executives in the execution department heard this, they would probably be unconvinced.
Dorocel Reno, on the other hand!
Because he had personally experienced something similar during an operation in South Africa years ago.
At the time, Renault had just graduated from the academy with excellent grades and joined the Executive Department. His mission was also a very simple surveillance and observation task.
It was a black boy who looked very thin, probably only seven or eight years old.
However, this same little boy suddenly went on a killing spree one night, taking the lives of half of his squad in less than three minutes.
Renault was seriously injured but survived thanks to timely medical treatment, though he never saw those familiar smiling faces again.
From then on, Renault would approach even the smallest tasks with utmost caution.
As expected of the elites of Kassel College, they quickly assigned their respective tasks upon arriving at the scene without saying a word.
Two people were left downstairs to evacuate the building's residents and onlookers.
Led by Captain Reno, the others began checking each floor from the first floor upwards, only proceeding to the next floor after confirming that one floor was safe.
Until they arrived at the room on the third floor where the incident occurred.
The crowd that rushed in looked at the little girl who had just stood up to leave, and at the room that was broken and messy, as if a typhoon had passed through.
Various strange accents of "OH MY GOD" and "Holy crap" appeared simultaneously from these people's mouths.
"Captain, look...look behind that door!"
"What!?"
It's hard to imagine anyone ignoring this door that's almost completely embedded in the wall, yet their attention overlooks the person hidden behind it.
"I mean the bloodstains on the ground; the amount of bleeding is horribly excessive, exceeding the normal blood volume of a human body."
Considering there was a little girl present, the person speaking could only use a roundabout way of expressing themselves.
Fortunately, the others were all intelligent and immediately understood what he meant: a blood volume exceeding that of a normal human body, in other words, there was a high probability that a mixed-race person was behind this door.
"Rebecca, take the person away and protect them. There are still some issues that need to be verified later."
"Ok."
Considering the traditional Chinese custom of men and women not touching each other, Renault arranged for the only female team member present to take the still-shaken little girl away first.
The things that followed were clearly not appropriate for her presence.
"3, 2, 1, push!"
It took the two of them a lot of effort to pry the door off the wall, and only then did the male corpse behind the door, with more than 80% of its skeleton shattered, finally appear before everyone.
"Wow—this guy died a really horrible death!"
"I can almost picture the scene in my mind. This is just too unlucky!"
"Amen~"
The process of handling the body, stuffing it into a body bag, and collecting blood samples from the scene was carried out methodically by these professionals.
What is professionalism?
This is called professionalism!
After preserving all the physical evidence, the room was restored to its normal state, and no one could tell anything was amiss.
"The officials are on their way, let's retreat!"
"Received~"
Chapter 28 is intricate and far-reaching.
Inside the temporary shelter of the executive department squad.
"Little friend, don't be afraid. We are government officials. We've invited you here today because we need to verify some things with you."
We'll notify your family to come pick you up after everything is done.
The one who comforted the little girl was He Yin, a "local" in this executive team, with a naturally sunny, handsome, and gentle face.
This face, which has absolutely no offensive capabilities, is perfect for dealing with girls. It works on everyone, whether they are little girls or older women!
The gentle and friendly words immediately put the little girl, who was a bit nervous in the unfamiliar environment, at ease, and she nodded in agreement.
Asking questions also requires skill.
Getting straight to the point from the start can easily trigger a negative reaction from the other person, making them resistant and unwilling to cooperate.
The best way is like making friends, starting with some very simple questions to gradually break down the other person's defenses.
"Little sister, what's your name?"
