Ren Xiaosu angrily returned to Stronghold 61's town and continued waiting for the other party's text. When Xiaolu saw him coming back, she even asked him softly if he had completed the mission.
How was Ren Xiaosu supposed to say that he had been hiding in the bushes and had the mission snatched away by someone else?
In the next half a month, he received a total of seven missions on his cell phone. However, five of them were too far away from Ren Xiaosu. Even the Stronghold was too far away from him.
He could not get there in time.
As for the two missions that were more recent, one of them was to kill a squire in town. This mission was easier and had a relatively lower reward.
The other was to kill a town manager. The difficulty was about the same as killing a factory manager, and the reward was also 20000.
But without exception, every time Ren Xiaosu arrived, he would discover the mission had already been snatched away.
This made Ren Xiaosu even angrier. What happened to completing five missions within two months and immediately getting promoted to C-rank? What happened to quickly getting promoted to A-rank?
Ren Xiaosu had thought the most difficult part of an assassination mission would be how to kill someone. But now he realized the most difficult part was actually how to snatch the mission first.
The threshold for completing a D-rank mission was very low, and even some ruthless refugees could complete it. Therefore, this meant that any random bastard could snatch the mission from him.
Ren Xiaosu wondered if there would be fewer people who would snatch the missions after his rank increased. After all, the higher the rank, the fewer hitmen there would be.
At this moment, Ren Xiaosu received a new text message. "Target, Zhao Yanbo. Former director of the Soong Clan's Stronghold 146. During his tenure, he bullied female prisoners and has fled to a town outside Stronghold 61. Reward: 20000."
Following that, the other party sent a photo of Zhao Yanbo. Ren Xiaosu was stunned. Wasn't this the middle-aged man who had forced his wife to look for him?
Ren Xiaosu was suddenly pleasantly surprised. After all, in the past half a month, Ren Xiaosu had already made three trips for nothing. Because he was too far away from the targets, someone always beat him to it.
This time, the mission had spawned next to his!
If someone else stole his mission, he, Ren Xiaosu, would have to stand upside down while eating!
It was already evening, so the town's refugees had already gone to hide in their homes. There were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the streets.
Ren Xiaosu changed his clothes and deliberately put on a cap before he went out.
Zhao Yanbo's life had been relatively comfortable recently. Although it was not as good as when he was in the Soong Clan, at least he did not starve to death. His ex-wife had been secretly sending him food.
He didn't have any pursuits, so he hid in the shack every day. From time to time, he would secretly ask his wife for some money to buy some alcohol.
When Ren Xiaosu found Zhao Yanbo, he was hiding in the shack and drinking.
However, Ren Xiaosu was not in a hurry to take action this time. Instead, he hid in the shadows not far away and waited silently.
Three hours later, someone quietly snuck into town from outside. He found a worn-out cell phone in a secluded corner and checked the message from the message.
But just as the cell phone lit up, he heard someone behind him say with a smile, "Are you here to carry out a mission?"
The hitman was startled. He turned around and was about to swing his knife at the person. But before he could turn around and see who it was, he was knocked unconscious with a knife.
Ren Xiaosu crouched down and took the cell phone away from the hitman's body. He sneered and said, "How dare you steal my mission? Let's see how you're going to steal it without your cell phone!"
He happily looted the hitman's money as well. Ren Xiaosu threw the other party's cell phone into his storage space. He could finally vent his anger for wasting half a month's time on the hitman.
However, he did not kill the hitman because Ren Xiaosu was not sure if the hitman was evil or not. At the very least, he was here to kill evil people.
After doing all this, Ren Xiaosu dragged the hitman into the shadows and continued waiting patiently.
As long as no one sent a text message to take pictures of Zhao Yanbo's death, the mission would remain uncompleted. There would always be new hitmen coming here.
At this moment, Zhao Yanbo was still unaware of what had happened outside because of him.
Previously, Ren Xiaosu had waited for half a month in vain and had been suppressing his anger. He wanted to vent his anger, but the people who snatched the mission had long since left the crime scene. He did not know who to vent his anger on even if he wanted to.
Now that the mission was right beside him, he could wait for the enemy to exhaust himself.
Moreover, Ren Xiaosu felt that he could not always let others snatch his mission. How should he solve this problem?
Ren Xiaosu's way of thinking had always been different from other people's. While other people were trying to solve problems, Ren Xiaosu was looking at something more fundamental. Wouldn't it be better to just get rid of the people who created the problems for him?!
Today, he only needed to wait patiently and knock out all the hitmen who had cell phones. Then, he would snatch their cell phones. That way, he would be the only hitman in the vicinity!
When that time came, he would be able to do the mission however he wanted and whenever he wanted!
He could even be picky and not do the missions that were too difficult! I also want to keep a low profile, but my strength doesn't allow me to!
Thinking of this, Ren Xiaosu almost laughed out loud happily.
Perfect!
That night, Zhao Yanbo's mission was not completed. Hitmen kept coming to him, but all of them were taken care of by Ren Xiaosu.
Although the other hitmen were also troubled by the difficulty of snatching missions, they had never thought of Ren Xiaosu's method. It was simply impossible for them to do so.
These hitmen were only D-level, and there was not even a single supernatural being seen. They were not even enough to fill the gaps between Ren Xiaosu's teeth.
They could only stay at D-level. After all, not everyone could complete five missions within two months. As for Ren Xiaosu, he was stuck at D-level purely because he could not snatch any missions!
Not everyone was like Ren Xiaosu. He was already a legendary supernatural being in the Northwest region, but he still came here to do these small missions.
If the other hitmen were to find out about this, they would definitely scold Ren Xiaosu for being shameless.
That night, Ren Xiaosu managed to snatch five cell phones. He reckoned there should still be some hitmen in the stronghold controlled by the Wang Clan. But as long as he continued to seize cell phones, he would be able to pick any mission he wanted one day.
At dawn, Ren Xiaosu did not wait any longer. He went straight to the sleeping Zhao Yanbo and broke his neck. He had no qualms about killing a lackey of the Soong Clan.
After Ren Xiaosu took a photo, he received a text message as promised: "Mission complete. Starting today, you will be promoted to D-rank for two months, which will take a total of 60 days. The mission reward of 20000 yuan will be transferred to the Wang Clan's bank account. Anonymous account number 1583850, password 666666."
As the sun rose, a smear of white suddenly appeared in the sky, followed by the red glow of the morning sun.
Ren Xiaosu finally heaved a sigh of relief. His path as a hitman had finally begun.
