“Actually, I’m an assassin!”
When Number 47 finished, he stared at Lin Mo, anticipating his shock.
“Huh?!” Lin Mo was very cooperative and was slightly shocked. He couldn’t possibly say that he had already seen through it just now, right?
However, to be honest, Lin Mo was indeed a little surprised.
‘Are all killers so arrogant these days?’
‘You’re going to reveal your identity to a random stranger?’
“Don’t panic!” Number 47 said after enjoying Lin Mo’s shock. “Although you already know my identity, I can’t kill you to silence you even for this beer! Of course… if you don’t know what’s good for you and are shouting, don’t blame me for being rude!”
‘Being rude?’
After secretly observing, Lin Mo was already certain that the other party’s combat technique had definitely not reached the peak of rank 3. This was because some of the details of the other party’s movements revealed that his strength accuracy had not reached the level of “one strand”.
He had not even reached the peak of the third rank, so how strong could his overall strength be?
In any case, Lin Mo was certain that he could pin this honest killer to the ground and beat him up in minutes.
“Then why did you reveal your identity to me?” Lin Mo couldn’t help but ask curiously.
“Because I’m supposed to be dying!” Number 47 downed the rest of his cold beer. He looked sad, like a hero who had gone and never returned. “And I feel like I hit it off with you. The moment I see you, I feel like I’m seeing myself back then!”
Lin Mo understood. ‘You just want to tell a story, right?’
“Come on!”
‘Tell me your story!’
Sure enough, number forty-seven began to tell her story.
“The story starts from the year I failed the Martial Arts College Entrance Examination…”
“That year, I was in my third year of high school! Just like you, when I was about to take the college entrance examination, I realized that it was impossible for me to get into a martial arts university with my results!”
“However… I can’t be as carefree as you! You knew that you had no chance of taking the college entrance examination, so you simply chose to become idle! As for me, I knew that there was no hope for the path of martial arts, but I still struggled until the day of the martial arts college entrance examination!”
“There’s no need to say more about the results of the college entrance examination. I failed!”
“However, a few days after the Martial Arts College Entrance Examination ended, I welcomed the turning point of my life—the assassin organization lurking outside Xia country found me and was willing to nurture me into an official martial artist! And the price I need to pay is to become a member of the assassin organization!”
Hearing this, Lin Mo began to understand the other party’s experience.
“Is that why you joined the killer organization?” Lin Mo said with disdain.
“You’re underestimating me!” Number 47 smiled proudly. “Although the path of martial arts is my dream, after all, who doesn’t want to stand out? However, compared to my dream, I don’t want to betray Xia country even more!”
It was obvious that Number 47 had a bottom line!
“But I didn’t want to miss out on the martial arts resources provided by the assassin organization, so… after some hesitation, I decided to sneak into the assassin organization. I’ll freeload and wait for death, doing nothing!”
“This way, I can realize my martial arts dream without betraying Xia country. Moreover, it will consume the martial arts resources of the assassin organization—it can be said to be killing three birds with one stone!” Number 47 was quite proud of his “killing three birds with one stone” operation.
“Aren’t you on some assassination mission today?” Lin Mo asked directly.
“Sigh! I didn’t expect this!”
Number forty-seven sighed heavily and went on.
“The assassin organization I’m in actually has very few missions! It’s to assassinate the 100 geniuses on the Genius List when the Xia country’s Genius List is released every year!”
“But you probably haven’t heard much about any genius on the Genius List being assassinated!”
“So… our assassin organization’s mission is, to put it bluntly, an act!”
“Every year, I’ll be assigned to an assassination target! Then, I’ll go straight to the city where the assassination target is and play for a few days. I’ll treat it as a public holiday! When the trip is over, I’ll report the car, meal, and accommodation fees that should be reimbursed. I’ll complete my mission this year and muddle through!”
“Damn! This sounds quite satisfying!” Lin Mo couldn’t help but feel envious.
This wave of fleecing was really a little flashy!
Not only did he freeload, but he was also being reimbursed for his vacatoin
Moreover, because he was taking advantage of the assassin organization, not only would he not feel guilty, but he would also feel righteous!
It could really be said to be a double harvest of “materialistic spirit”!
“Yes, I feel very good too! This is how I’ve been living for the past ten years! Not only have I become a four-star martial artist, but I’ve also been freeloading every year!” Number 47’s face was filled with happiness as he recalled the past. But suddenly, his expression darkened. “But… if you often walk by the river, your shoes will get wet! This year, an accident happened!”
“Oh?” Lin Mo listened attentively.
“This year, my code name in our killer organization is number forty-seven!”
“Forty-seven?” Lin Mo frowned when he heard the number.
He felt that this number seemed a little familiar, as if… he had heard it somewhere before?
But suddenly, Lin Mo couldn’t remember where he had heard it before.
At this moment, No. 47 continued, “Because I’m No. 47, the target of my assassination this year is… Black Earth, ranked 47th on the Genius List of Xia country!”
“Black Earth!?” Lin Mo almost spat out his cold beer when he heard the word.
‘Bloody hell… isn’t Black Earth me?’
Why did the number “47” sound so familiar! It was his ranking the first time he got on the Xia country’s Genius List!
And this assassin who had been talking to him for a long time, his target this year was him!
‘What is this?’
This was fate!
It was indeed as the old saying went: If fate wills it, we will meet again!
However, this fate came so suddenly that Lin Mo did not know how to deal with it.
“He would never have thought… that he was telling Black Earth that his assassination target was Black Earth!” Lin Mo laughed involuntarily. “If he finds out that I’m Black Earth, I wonder if he’ll attack me?”
Even if he was discovered, Lin Mo was not worried.
He had already determined that number 47 was just a very ordinary four-star martial artist! Although Lin Mo was still a one-star martial artist, with his “fifth rank” combat technique, meant that beating an ordinary four-star martial artist was really child’s play.
Moreover… it was impossible for the other party to know that Lin Mo was Black Earth!
So there was even less to worry about.
“Then do you know where Black Earth is?” Lin Mo asked deliberately.
“How would I know!” Number 47 said without thinking. “Not only our organization, but even the Martial Arts Administration probably doesn’t know who Black Earth is!”
The more Number 47 thought about it, the more depressed he became. “If I knew where Black Earth was, would I need to come to Haicheng City?”
Lin Mo couldn’t help but laugh in his heart. If you knew where Black Earth was, you would really have to come to Haicheng City!
“Then how are you going to report on this year’s assassination mission if you can’t find Black Earth?” Lin Mo asked calmly.
As he spoke, Lin Mo couldn’t help but feel secretly proud of himself. In terms of the importance of hiding his identity!
He had hidden his identity as “Black Earth” well enough. Now, even if the assassin organization wanted to assassinate him, they wouldn’t be able to find him!
‘If we can’t find him, what’s the point of an assassination!’
In fact, he could even sit here comfortably and drink with the assassin, No. 47, chatting and laughing. The scene was abnormally friendly.
“That’s why I said walking by the river often will wet one’s shoes!” Number 47 said gloomily. “Because I don’t know where Black Earth is, I was forcefully dragged here by the ‘seven’ killer in our organization!”
“Number seven killer?” Lin Mo understood and couldn’t help but glance at the lake villa where Yan Yimo was.
When the Xia country’s Genius List was first released, Yan Yimo’s ranking was 7th, corresponding to “7th”.
“Number 7 will probably attack Yan Yimo soon!” Number 47 did not hide it. After all, in his opinion, Lin Mo was just a piece of trash. Even if he heard this news, he would definitely not dare to shout, so it would not affect him at all. “As soon as Number 7 makes his move, there will definitely be martial arts experts coming from the office building immediately! And what I want to do is stop them here!”
As Number 47 spoke, sadness appeared on his face. “I’m just an ordinary four-star martial artist. If we fight later, I’ll definitely die!”
“Then…” Lin Mo couldn’t help but ask, “Can’t you not intercept?”
“Even if I don’t stop him, No. 7 will definitely expose me! At that time, I’ll still die! And… if the organization finds out that I fled, even my family will be implicated!” No. 47 shook his head and sighed. “I have no choice!”
If he had a choice, No. 47 wouldn’t be here now!
“I see…” Lin Mo was not very worried about Yan Yimo’s situation.
After all, Yan Yimo was no longer a third-rank illusionist but had broken through to the fourth rank! With the magic and uniqueness of an illusionist, even if she couldn’t suppress an assassin like Lin Mo, it wouldn’t be a problem for her to last until the experts in the school arrived to save her!
Taking a step back, even if Yan Yimo really couldn’t hold on anymore, Lin Mo, this “buddy friend”, wouldn’t just watch her die! At most, he would expose his strength!
The reason why Lin Mo hid his strength was mainly for his own safety. After all, the bird that sticks out gets shot! For example, if Lin Mo hid his identity as “Black Earth”, he could sit here and chat with the assassin peacefully. How safe!
But now, Lin Mo already had a certain level of self-preservation ability. In addition, the Martial Arts College Entrance Examination was coming soon, so he did not mind revealing his strength.
“Little Brother Lin Mo!” Number 47 said sincerely. “To be able to meet a friend like you before I die and say so many things that I can’t usually say… I’m lucky!”
Seeing how sincere Number 47 was, Lin Mo couldn’t help but be touched.
But he couldn’t help but say, “Um… I think you’re narrowing the path!”
Lin Mo had a specialty of “backhand reporting”. He felt that it was necessary to share it with his new friend.
