The sky gradually darkened, and the air was stifling. The wind seemed to be still, and there was almost no one on the streets after midnight.
Yan Zhenting and Xia Yichu went to the underground city to investigate. It was said that the underground city of the capital was the place where all the darkness in the city was hidden.
They learned this from the assassin that there were all kinds of shady deals going on here, including hiring assassins.
The legendary Shadow Group was located here. It wasn't a place to train assassins, but a very secretive intermediary.
If someone wanted to buy information or hire an assassin from here, the fastest and most convenient way to do so would be through the Shadow Group.
The assassin who murdered Lu Qingyun had received the mission through the Shadow Group. If they could find the group, they would be able to find out who the real employer was.
Of course, it wouldn't be easy. These guys were very cautious, especially their boss, The Phantom. He was elusive and never showed his face.
No matter if it was Yan Zhenting or Xia Yichu, they had harmed Lu Qingyun. He couldn't take it lying down.
Even if it was a dragon's lair or a tiger's den, he had to go. If he didn't get rid of the person behind this, he wouldn't be Third Master Yan.
"We're here. It should be here!" The two of them got out of the car in disguise and stopped at Queen's Avenue in the capital.
Queen's Avenue was in the center of the southern part of the city. It was the most dangerous street in the capital, especially at night when people from all walks of life gathered there.
Even taxi drivers didn't want to come here. Yan Zhenting looked around. It was just as the rumors said.
A few tattooed men and a group of punk boys and girls with dyed hair were staring at the two of them. The atmosphere was very strange and murderous.
"Young Master, don't worry. I-I'll protect you." Assistant Lin reached for the soft sword at his waist.
Before they left, he had asked Raisa for her weapon. He was going to sacrifice himself for a righteous cause.
"Don't be rash!" Yan Zhenting gave him a look. The three of them walked into an alley.
After passing through the alley, they arrived at a bar called The
Night Bar, which meant the legend of the night.
The front of this bar was very old, and there was no one around. It was the same place as the killer had described.
"Let's go!" Yan Zhenting straightened his clothes, exchanged a glance with Xia Yichu, and walked around the front door to the back door.
Behind the bar, there was a hidden back door. This was the real entrance to the Underground City.
Beep, beep, beep!
He reached out and knocked on the rusty iron door. Then, the door opened a crack, and a man looked at the two of them cautiously.
"I'm here to pay the membership fee!" Xia Yichu said as he took a stack of US dollars from his Assistant Lin and placed it in the man's hand.
The man weighed the banknotes in his hand before opening the door and letting the three of them in. This was also the rule here.
Paying the membership fee was the secret code, and ten thousand dollars was the deposit for the transaction. Only when these two conditions were met could they be allowed to enter.
When they finally entered the Underground City, two men in black uniforms walked over. "What kind of business do you want to do?"
"If you want to buy information, please go this way. If you want to buy a life, please go that way!" Their attitude was very amiable. They didn't expect this place to be different from what they had imagined.
They thought that there would be naked men with tattoos standing on both sides of the corridor. They didn't expect the Anying Group to operate in an industrial chain.
Before entering the room, the two of them glanced around and found that there were not only two rooms for projects, but also a room with the deepest diameter.
The door of this room was closed, and there were two people standing in front of the door. They looked very mysterious. The two of them looked at each other, and then followed one of their men into the room. There was only one person and a computer in the empty room.
"Fill in the identity, photo, and personal information of the person you want to kill. The computer will set the price according to the identity of the person you want to kill."
Yan Zhenting looked at the form in front of him. It turned out that there was such a way to hire a killer. The person who wanted to kill Lu Qingyun shouldn't have left any evidence here.
Therefore, Yan Zhenting slowly put down his pen and looked at the staff opposite him. "What if I don't want to fill in the form?"
The few men present looked at each other, and then one of them left the room and walked to the room at the end of the corridor.
At this moment, in this closed room, a man wearing a mask was there.
"L, you know the rules here, right?" The person sitting on the leather chair opposite him had his back facing him. The smoke from the cigarette between his fingers was curling up.
With a "dong" sound, L placed a box in his hand on the table. The box was opened, and it was full of US dollar bills.
"Of course I know the rules. I just want to buy information from you!" L threw out so much money at once. "The Phantom, I want information on the King Of Hearts."
"The King Of Hearts?" The Phantom sneered. "Hehe, I was wondering who it was that made L pay so much money."
"Sorry, I don't have any information on him. You should find someone else." She rejected him directly.
L narrowed his eyes and said with a murderous look, "The Phantom, you know my boss's temper. He's not a patient person."
"Don't use my boss to pressure me. I've already repaid my debt to him." The Phantom had always been amenable to coaxing but not coercion.
She and L had known each other for a long time. If the stalemate continued, she wouldn't be able to get the information that L wanted.
"Beep, beep, beep!"
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. One of the men pushed the door open and entered. "Boss, another VIP client is here."
What day was it today? Two big clients came consecutively. The man picked up the remote control on the table and clicked on the surveillance video hanging on the wall.
There were two people in the room. K narrowed his eyes and looked at the screen. L recognized him quickly. "It's actually him?"
"You know him? Who is this person? "The Phantom asked in a low voice. A murderous look appeared in his eyes.
His hand slowly touched his waist. At this moment, he seemed to be considering whether he should kill or not.
The murderous look on L's face was immediately detected by The Phantom. Her gaze turned cold. "L, I'm warning you. Don't make a move here."
Offending The Phantom wasn't a joke. He knew his limits. He looked at her coldly and slowly put down the hand on his waist.
