Chapter 403.2 - Finding Clue (Part Two)
Saar immediately went to grab onto Xu Cheng’s waist, anxiously pulled him back, and said, “Come on, man, just give me some face and don’t let this get out of hand.”
“Okay, I will give you face.” Xu Cheng let out a breath, and he walked down from the second floor. On the grass, he bent down in front of the killer and asked, “Now, can you say it?”
That assassin held onto his azz in pain and he said as the muscles on his face twitched uncontrollably. “The hit list can’t just be checked at will. Generally, our assassins’ profiles are gathered by the Assassin Alliance and grouped by level, and we can only see missions that correspond to our level. Normally, there’s level C, B, A, and S, and I’m only at A, so at least when I checked the missions, I didn’t see you on the list. But judging by your power, I think you should be on the S-tier hit list. The bounty on people on that list are all really heavy, but they are also very dangerous.”
Xu Cheng: “How do you view S-tier missions?”
The black-bearded assassin: “You don’t know the Assassin Alliance’s mission reward system. Normally, S-tier bounty missions are priced between 15 to 30 million dollars, but before you are certain about accepting the mission, all of these missions are confidential. If you want to view the target with a 30-million-dollar bounty, you also have to pay a third of the bounty amount, which is 10-million, which is to be left with the Assassin Alliance as a deposit. Once you successfully complete the mission, this amount will be returned along with the bounty reward. If you just check out the mission but don’t take it, the 10-million deposit won’t be returned. Otherwise, there would be a lot of assassins with money just viewing confidential stuff and not taking the mission. Normally, when someone views the mission, they would take it. Even if you are on the S-class list, you don’t know what price range you are in. So, if you want me to check one mission, that’s already at least 10-million, and checking out 10 would be 100-million! Where would I find this much money to burn? Besides, if the Assassin Alliance saw that I am just checking missions but aren’t taking any, I will die! That’s against their rules!”
The black-bearded assassin looked at Xu Cheng and continued, “You want to know the people putting you on the hit list, right? Forget it, it’s all confidential. The system takes pride in its credibility and confidentiality, and many times, the guy registering targets won’t even leave any information down other than the money before leaving. The Assassin Alliance is also just responsible for taking money and killing people, and letting the target find out who put the bounty on his or her head is the most unscrupulous behavior in the assassin world, it would basically destroy the brand and the business, unless…”
Xu Cheng: “Unless what?”
The black-bearded assassin sneered. “Unless you go over to the Assassin Alliance’s HQ and find someone to ask, but you definitely won’t get anything out of me, nor will I tell you even I knew. As an assassin, the most shameful thing is to leak the employer’s name!”
Xu Cheng sneered. “Are you retaliating because I hit you so you deliberately told me such a solution?”
The black-bearded assassin snorted. “Besides this, there’s no other way to find out who wants to kill you. Do you have the balls to go? If you offend the Assassin Alliance, don’t even dream about living the rest of your life in peace.”
Xu Cheng let go of the guy’s collar and thought about it.
Saar asked Xu Cheng, “If you are suspecting that someone’s trying to kill you, why not just go and kill him? Why go through so much trouble?”
Xu Cheng: “If I knew, then would I come here? I can only find out who he is through the Assassin Alliance and then find him. I want him alive, and I want to drag him to the person he harmed to kneel and apologize! Now, I just know vaguely who I’m against, that’s an organization. I don’t even know who’s in it, I can’t just kill everyone in that organization, right?”
Saar: “Which organization?”
“Oh, my bad, not organization.” Xu Cheng said, “It’s the Shanling Financial Group!”
The assassin and Saar’s eyes opened up wide!
Holy fack! Your balls are that big?!
