Chapter 216 - Night Operations (2)

"Is there any assassination's request?" Nan Hua asked softly.

"Yes. There are several of them."

"Show me."

Nan Hua took the bamboo strips from Fei Mao and read the content. There were several people who wanted for Official Du to step down because he and his guards had wronged them several times. But because of their weak position, they couldn't win against him and could only resort to ask for assassination request.

"Why is this not picked up?" Nan Hua asked.

"The request is not only to kill Official Du but also the guards who follow him. Those guards are quite powerful and their number are a lot. The reward from this mission is not much," Fei Mao reported truthfully.

As assassins, they certainly needed to have certain skills and confidence before doing their mission. In the case like this where the opponent was powerful while the price was considerably low, there were not many people who would want to step forward.

Dark Moon Organization was also not really active in Fei Yang Kingdom Capital City as their base was quite far.

"I see. In that case I'll pick it up." Nan Hua looked at the detail and put it away. The target was Official Du and his guards with him. "Come with me to leave the organization's mark. Also, leave the servants and his wives."

"Yes."

The assassination target didn't include the servants and Nan Hua knew that such a huge residence would have a lot of servants inside. It would be too much to kill everyone when she didn't even know who participated from the servants.

Since that was the case, she would just let them off and only targeted the officials and his main guards.

"How many people are his guards?" Nan Hua took the mask from the side and worn it properly.

"Replying to Miss, there are a total of 16 main guards and additional of 5 guards responsible for the residence safety.

Nan Hua's eyes narrowed. "Knock those five additional guards and kill the other 16."

"Yes!"

"Give me the layout."

Nan Hua didn't say anything more as she leapt inside. Her movement was extremely smooth. The tall wall that had proudly stopped so many thieves before was nothing in front of her.

Fei Mao silently stood behind the guard, within the shadow. People from outside wouldn't be able to guess that there was someone standing there as they would only think there were two people here and not three.

Swish!

The wind blew faintly.

Nan Hua glanced to the side and saw several people moving towards the main hall. Seeing their identity as servants, she didn't make a move and only watched quietly from behind the tree.

"Master asks us to deliver more food tonight. Is he going to ask us to stay behind again?" the servant asked in quivering tone.

"Don't worry, the madam is accompanying him tonight. There's no way he'll ask us to stay behind," The second servant reassured her friend.

The woman nodded. "Tonight is quite cold."

"Let's go, the patrol guards will come soon enough."

Nan Hua was staying still. Her mind still had the picture of the layout from before as she silently moved towards the area where the guards will appear.

First, she will eliminate all the guards here.

Thud! Slash!

The smell of blood grew thicker as more and more people died. Some of them easily died without Nan Hua using any weapon. But those who were faster and stronger managed to stay alive and tried to counterattack.

She had no other choice but to use the fallen guard's sword to kill the other party.

'My fingerprint... oh, there's no such thing here.'

Being used to the modern world with advance equipment, Nan Hua silently shook her head. She hid the body behind the bushes while she silently counted the number of the guards she had killed.

'Two more.'
