Ren Xiaosu was very particular about the location he chose for the ambush. He had studied the terrain around the black market and knew there were only three ways to get out of it. If the other party was heading to Stronghold 73, which was in the territory of the Zhou Clan, to carry out a mission, they would definitely take the route he chose for the ambush.
When Zhao Haocheng and the others drove out of the black market, a sniper bullet penetrated the off-road vehicle's windshield and killed Zhao Haocheng in the backseat without any warning.
Zhou Yingxue watched quietly from the side. She suddenly felt a little puzzled. Why did the young man in front of her seem to know everything? He was even so good at using a sniper rifle?
She could imagine how terrifying a supernatural being who knew how to snipe would be.
The other snipers were now carefully guarding against the supernatural beings' close-range attacks. However, the young man in front of her did not have to worry about that at all. If a normal supernatural being tried to sneak up on him, they would only realize he was no match for them in close-range combat.
Now, a famous A-rank hitman had been killed just like that. Ren Xiaosu was really not sloppy when it came to killing people.
Ren Xiaosu put away his sniper rifle and went down the mountain. Zhou Yingxue followed behind and muttered, "You killed their teammate, but will they let you join their team as a teammate?"
"Zhao Haocheng has to die no matter what. We'll just take it one step at a time," Ren Xiaosu said slowly. In his opinion, if someone was always thinking about him behind his back, they might even try to do something bad to him in the future. In that case, he might as well kill them decisively.
Ren Xiaosu had already said that he was not a good person at all, nor did he want to be one.
However, he was curious. "This team is also quite strange. They knew there was something wrong with Zhao Haocheng, so why did they still want him as a teammate? Most people wouldn't want someone like him as a teammate, right? If it were me, I'd rather offend him than be with him. "
"Who knows?" Zhou Yingxue said as she followed behind Ren Xiaosu.
After the two of them went down the mountain, Zhou Yingxue resumed her cold demeanor. She led her assistant, Ren Xiaosu, towards the direction of the motorcade.
By then, the other four A-rank hitmen in the convoy had already tossed Zhao Haocheng's body to the side of the road. They picked up a rag to clean the interior of the vehicle, which was covered in blood.
However, what surprised Ren Xiaosu and Zhou Yingxue was that when they saw the two of them, they actually smiled happily and said, "Welcome to the team?"
Puzzled, Zhou Yingxue asked, "You guys don't seem to mind that your teammate just died?"
The owner of Room 1209 said with a smile, "Let me introduce myself. My name is Wu Tong, and one of my good friends was among the teammates that Zhao Haocheng killed. This time, we set up a trap to kill him. I thought it would be more difficult to kill him since he was on guard, but I didn't expect you to finish him off with a sniper rifle. Speaking of which, I still have to thank you for avenging my friend."
Ren Xiaosu felt that this explanation made sense. Otherwise, he would really find it hard to understand why the other party did not kick Zhao Haocheng out of the team. After all, this was a team that could be formed freely. It was not like the Anjing House had forced Zhao Haocheng to join them.
Therefore, Zhao Haocheng probably did not expect that someone would seek revenge on him.
In the world of such people, everyone would probably not have any friends because they themselves did not have any friends.
However, Wu Tong and the others treated Zhou Yingxue as the sniper from earlier. Wu Tong exclaimed, "I didn't expect Ms. Zhou Yingxue to not only be a supernatural being, but also a sniper. It's no wonder she was able to wipe out the Pyro Company's Dusk during the mission at Stronghold 61."
Ren Xiaosu found out from Zhou Yingxue that the Pyro Company had actually gained the upper hand when she escaped. Not only was she seriously injured, but some members of their five-member team had also been killed by the Pyro Company.
However, everyone was saying that they had completed the mission beautifully and that the Pyro Company's members had been wiped out.
Something must have happened after Zhou Yingxue escaped from Stronghold 61.
That night, the battle at Stronghold 61 lasted for an extremely long time. Ren Xiaosu suspected that the Wang Clan's consortium had wiped out the Pyro Company, but they claimed it was the Anjing House's doing.
It was actually the same situation at Stronghold 63. When Vanilla was on a mission, he realized the Pyro Company was fleeing in the direction of the Wang Clan's troops, so he immediately retreated!
Ren Xiaosu found it a little strange. Could it be that the Wang Clan's consortium was only arresting the Anjing House on the surface, but they were secretly colluding with each other? Why was the Anjing House acting like the Wang Clan's shadow? Could it be that the two parties were working together in some way?
Of course, if Ren Xiaosu knew what Qing Zhen thought of the Wang Clan, he would probably be even more certain of this.
However, he could not understand what common interests the Wang Clan and the Anjing House had in common.
Qing Zhen probably could not understand this either.
Wu Tong looked at Ren Xiaosu. "Ms. Zhou, this is …"
"Oh, this is my assistant, my spotter," Zhou Yingxue said coldly.
Ren Xiaosu paused for a moment before taking out a spotter's binoculars from his backpack.
This kind of binoculars had a professional scientific name called a spotting scope. Its magnification and field of view were much higher than those used on sniper rifles. Even in poor visibility conditions, the spotting scope could still clearly see the landing point of the bullet in the distance and guide the sniper on how to correct the deviated trajectory.
Under normal circumstances, snipers carrying out decapitation missions would be accompanied by a spotter with a spotting scope. This spotting scope was given to Ren Xiaosu by Yang Xiaojin. She probably did not expect Ren Xiaosu to become a sniper.
When Wu Tong and the others saw that Ren Xiaosu was even wearing a spotting scope, they thought to themselves that Zhou Yingxue was quite a professional.
Since he was a spotter, they did not say much. After all, it was also a good thing to have a sniper in the team.
But what they did not know was that Zhou Yingxue was starting to feel uneasy. She would have to return the prestige she had gained from borrowing Ren Xiaosu's name in the future!
However, she quite enjoyed the envious looks of others.
Due to the incident with Zhao Haocheng, the convoy only managed to travel 150 kilometers in one day. Wu Tong calculated the time and realized that the remaining two days would be enough for them to reach the vicinity of Stronghold 73.
They planned to abandon their vehicles at the outskirts of Stronghold 73 and find their own ways to sneak into the stronghold. Eventually, they would rendezvous at 191 Longyang Avenue, which was Wu Tong's own safe house in Stronghold 73. Other than Zhou Yingxue, the other four A-rank hitmen were mainly tasked with carrying out missions in the Zhou Clan's stronghold.
Wu Tong joked to Zhou Yingxue, "Don't tell me y 'all don't have a way to sneak into the stronghold?"
Zhou Yingxue said calmly, "Y 'all don't have to worry about that."
After setting up the tent at night, Zhou Yingxue went straight into Ren Xiaosu's tent. As she massaged Ren Xiaosu's legs, she explained, "I couldn't do anything about it when they thought I was a sniper. I couldn't possibly explain that I wasn't one, could I?"
