Shi Yu looked at the dead killer on the ground. After searching his body, he only found a tattoo of two daggers crossed on one of his arms.

He took out his phone and took a picture of the tattoo.

Shi Yu took a deep breath and left the place.

He then returned home, turned on his computer, and began to search for the pattern using hacker technology.

After searching for a long time on the internet, there were only bits and pieces of information. No one knew where this killer with a unique tattoo came from, nor did they know where they received their orders.

But every time they completed a task, they would mark the dead person’s arm with their tattoo to show that they had killed him.

They killed everyone, from military officials to shopkeepers, but the common problem among the dead was that they had all been bribed or convicted.

The shopkeeper, for instance, took advantage of a neighbor’s absence to rape someone’s daughter but paid off a judge and got out after only two years in prison.

Then the organization killed the judge, along with a series of chief judges and the shop owner.

Shi Yu frowned at the message. It seemed that they thought William had been bribed and paid the killer to kill the employer, but the employer was not a good person, and they were prepared to kill him.

Now that William was in the position, they wanted to kill him too.

Fortunately, he had come forward and brought them the message. Otherwise, William, who was in the dark, would have been hunted down countless times.

All of this had happened because of him. Shi Yu had to stop this from happening.

At that moment, the injured killer staggered back to the organization. When he saw the boss, his legs went weak, and he knelt down.

“Boss, that kid has someone protecting him. It’s the guy in the photo with William. He’s very skilled. Jerry was killed by him.”

At those words, the man stood up and walked to the assassin’s side. He sighed deeply and said, “Find a time to send the settlement fee to Jerry’s family.”

He patted the assassin’s shoulder and walked out of the room.

The man walked out of the door and looked at the busy people in the hall. He clapped his hands and took out the photo in his hand. The photo showed Shi Yu and William smiling. “Now, everyone, use whatever resources you have, and send the information of these two people to the office.”

He then returned to the room. Seeing that the killer was still kneeling on the ground, the man slowly walked to the lamp and revealed his face. The man was about thirty-seven or thirty-eight years old. He had short hair, and the collar of his white shirt was slightly open; the sleeves of the shirt were rolled up to the middle of his forearm, revealing his wheat-colored skin. His eyes were deep and spirited, and his nose bridge was high.

Ding Dong!

An email was sent to the man’s computer. He opened the file, and William and Shi Yu’s information appeared on it.

The man frowned as he looked at the details in front of him.

Name: Shi Yu

Occupation: Assassin

Height: 183 cm

Father: Unknown

Mother: Unknown

Inference: The information showed that he had been orphaned from a young age. He was taken care of by his neighbors and grew up. After that, he became a third-rate assassin. He had carried out a few missions, his most recent being assassinating Will, a high-ranking member of the city’s drone company. He displayed extreme skill at using poker cards to kill people.

The short description had definitely been tampered with. However, they couldn’t know for sure at the moment, only having the most recent time to deduce.

On the other hand, William’s details came with his father, mother, and wife. If William was really guilty, erasing the information with his current financial strength would be easy.

Therefore, the person with the problem was definitely Shi Yu.

“Looks like I have to make a trip myself,” the man thought.

The cold wind blew across the quiet street late at night, leaving only the bare branches swaying in the wind. The scattered snowflakes slowly fell to the ground.

Shi Yu, lying on the bed, suddenly opened his eyes and took out a poker card from under his pillow. He had always believed in his sixth sense.

Someone was coming home!

Shi Yu lifted the blanket and carefully stepped on the blanket by the bed. When he opened the door, he saw that the lights in the basement living room were turned on and the stereo was playing a song. A man was leisurely sitting on the sofa with his legs crossed.

With a frown, Shi Yu walked out.

Before Shi Yu could speak, the man said, “I sent the assassin to assassinate William today.”

Hearing this, Shi Yu understood more than half of it. It was the leader of the assassin.

Shi Yu too candidly admitted, “I pushed William up. As an assassin, it’s not good for me to appear in the open. So, if there’s any trouble, you can look for me.

“I know why your organization kills people, but your rules are useless to me because I’m an assassin.”

The man nodded and took two glasses of wine from the table. He picked up a glass and took a sip, saying, “What happened before is all in the past. I admire you very much. Why don’t you join our organization?”

Shi Yu smiled. As an assassin, he had no rules. He would kill for whoever paid him. Now that he was allowed to join this organization and be subject to its rules, he would definitely not use it.

Shi Yu declined politely, “I’m not suitable for your organization. I’m just using money to do things. I don’t have your rules.”

Hearing Shi Yu’s words, the man sitting on the sofa nodded. He was not confident in calling Shi Yu this time, but they did not want to make an enemy out of him either. After briefly explaining the situation, the man left.

In the morning, Shi Yu was woken up by William’s phone call. They had agreed to meet at Shi Yu’s new place today.

Shi Yu quickly washed up and went out in William’s Audi. It was then that William’s beaming face seemed to have infected Shi Yu.

The road was covered in white snow. He parked his car by the roadside. William took Shi Yu to the house. This place was the branch road leading to the city. There were not many cars throughout the day, and the surrounding houses were scattered.

Shi Yu looked around. Each house was separated by dozens of meters. It was much better than the houses in the city.

When they walked into the house, the house was not big. The overall style was minimalist. Of course, Shi Yu did not care about this. All he really wanted was to see the basement.

William briefly introduced the situation in the house and brought Shi Yu to the bedroom.

He pressed on the bookshelf on the side of the bedroom, and the bookshelf opened. A passage leading to the basement appeared.

Kerosene lamps were displayed on both sides of the slanted corridor as if telling the story of the building’s antiquity. William lit a torch and followed Shi Yu into the basement. The basement had not been renovated yet, and thick wads of cobwebs hung from every corner. From time to time, rats would run past his eyes..
