Chapter 444 - Marion vs Two Assassins

Max looked at Rosalien with a frown. He didn't expect this cute girl to be a murderer. He approached a high-ranking policeman who was in charge and whispered to him. Takeshi and Rosalien began to sense that something was wrong, but both remained calm.

"Sorry, Miss, you have to come with us to the police station," said Police Chief Archie Lam as he approached Rosalien .

Takeshi immediately positioned himself in front of his sister and blocked the police chief's steps. "I don't allow you to take her."

"You must also come to the office," the police chief said, starting to feel agitated. He gave a signal to his men and in an instant the two professional assassins from Rhionen Assassins were surrounded.

Inwardly, Takeshi wanted to scold Rosalien for blindly attacking someone. They were now in a rather uncomfortable position. But it had to wait. At present they must first escape the siege of the police and security guards.

Without warning, he took out a long ceramic knife that he had hidden at his feet under his trousers. As professional killers they were used to carrying undetectable weapons that do not contain metals, such as knives or swords made from ceramics and non-metal explosive devices.

With ease he swiftly made a fast circular motion and attacked one of the police officers standing near him, claiming his life in an instant. The others reflexively evaded and fired, but Takeshi fired back with a gun he had taken from the policeman he had killed and used his body as a shield.

The other officers were surprised by the turn of events and simultaneously held their fire. They could not bear to bombard their colleague's body with bullets after his pathetic death.

Rosalien vanished as soon as the commotion started and immediately held hostage a teenage girl who was in terror. She wanted to force the police to stop attacking her and Takeshi.

"Don't even try ... I know how to maim this girl for life!! I will not kill her ... but I will make sure she suffers horribly. If you come closer, you will be responsible for her suffering ...!!"

The beautiful girl's voice sounded cold and heartless. Rosalien was cornered. She was not afraid to die and would not hesitate to carry out her threat, but of course she did not want to die if she could negotiate with the police. She still wanted to enjoy life.

"Release the child ..." Marion walked slowly towards Rosalien with her hands raised. "You may take me hostage, but let go of the child."

Rosalien squinted at Marion's courage. 

Crazy, was this girl not afraid to die? Who was she? thought Rosalien .

Earlier when she and Takeshi watched Billie's entourage, they couldn't see Marion because she was blocked by Jean's body.

"Who are you? Are you a cop?" She asked Marion mockingly.

Marion shook her head patiently.

"I can safely get you out of here," Marion turned to Max. "Right, Max?"

Max didn't understand what Marion's plans were, so he could only nod.

Rosalien turned to Takeshi and nodded. The young man dropped the body of the police he had been using as a shield and approached Marion. In a quick second, Marion's neck was already in his grip.

"Now we have two hostages. If you don't prepare a helicopter for us to leave this place, you will see for yourself that my threat is not a joke," Rosalien grinned triumphantly. "I'll count to 10. If you don't agree, then, I'm very sorry ... the lives and future of these two people are in your hands."

Marion looked like she was in a lot of pain as her neck was tightly gripped by Takeshi and her face turned red. "Le ... let go of your hand, I can't breathe," she whispered in a muffled voice. 

With her right hand she tried to hold onto Takeshi's hand and pull it loose, but the young man tightened his grip even more.

"Damn it ... you guys are jerks," Marion cried, while still trying to pull Takeshi's hand. Her efforts were in vain, because Takeshi tightened his grip to show that he was serious. After struggling for half a minute, Marion's body finally went limp and slumped down.

"Eh ..." Takeshi was surprised because he didn't expect that the girl he held hostage was that weak. An unconscious hostage was more troublesome than a living hostage, so he immediately threw Marion to the side.

Marion laid on the ground motionless while Takeshi walked over to Rosalien. The two of them would be able to get away with just one hostage, he thought.

He had only walked for two steps, when suddenly Takeshi's body staggered and he lost his balance. A second later he fell to the ground next to Marion.

"Ugh ... Takeshi, why happened to you?!!" Reflexively Rosalien pushed the girl in her grip and ran towards her foster brother.

When she arrived at Takeshi's side and knelt beside him, Rosalien became careless and did not notice Marion got up and stuck a needle into the nape of her neck, just like how she had poisoned Takeshi's hand while she was pretending to free herself from his grip.

Rosalien's body suddenly felt very hot and for two long seconds she stared at Marion, whom she thought was unconscious.

"You .. you .. who are you?"

Marion just grunted and stood up, just when Rosalien's body fell to the ground on top of Takeshi. The police and security officers who surrounded them gasped.

Who would have thought that this indifferent-looking beautiful girl could single-handedly take down the two killers they were after.

The police had seen how ferociously Takeshi had killed some of their comrades with his knife. He was also able to return their gunfire with amazing skills. As for the cute girl who was his partner, she really gave them the chills when she uttered those cold and ruthless words when she held the teenager hostage earlier.

Who were these three people? They asked themselves.
