The word aroused Mona’s suspicion, and Luo An was equally intrigued: Sevin twisted his body a few times to get more comfortable and explained: "A month and a half ago, most of the top assassins from ’Skull Flower’ suddenly stopped taking jobs. Rumor has it that it was ’Blue-eyed Roy,’ ’Red-Backed Spider’ Brenna, and others who violated the organization’s rules, so the higher-ups in the organization put a high bounty on them, and these top assassins all went to assassinate them." Mona’s eyes flashed as she asked: "So, you mean, the customer service centers in Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and Kansas City were all destroyed by ’Blue-eyed Roy,’ ’Red-Backed Spider’ Brena, and others?" The source of thɪs content is NoveIFire.net "Apart from them, I can’t think of anyone else who possesses such power." Mona silently noted this information, and then she blinked, suddenly remembering the phone call Luo An had made earlier. The female customer service representative on the phone had said that Luo An was "difficult to pick, unable to take orders in the short term." The fact that all frontline assassins of the ’Skull Flower’ organization had stopped taking jobs, combined with this piece of information... A hint of surprise flashed in Mona’s eyes. Does that mean, in the eyes of the ’Skull Flower’ assassin organization, Luo An’s capabilities are on the same level as their top-tier assassins? Realizing this, Mona looked at Luo An’s back, swallowed, and her breathing gradually became heavier. Luo An didn’t see the look in Mona’s eyes behind him; he propped his chin with his hand and pondered for a while, then slowly raised his head to look at Sevin and asked: "So, you’re just a second-tier assassin in ’Skull Flower’?" Sevin’s face stiffened, although that was indeed the case, wasn’t that a bit too direct? Taking a deep breath and still feeling the pain in his abdomen, Sevin suppressed the idea of retorting and nodded in acknowledgment to Luo An’s words. Luo An continued to ask: "The sniper who attacked us earlier, do you suspect any assassin?" The sniper was very accurate, and even now, Luo An was still frightened when he recalled the incident. At that time, Luo An was worried about Mona being targeted, so he chose to drive away and did not pursue the attacker, but he had remembered that guy and must find an opportunity to have a proper talk with him. Hearing Luo An mention that sniper, a hint of anger flashed in Sevin’s eyes, and he said: "I suspect it was one of the James brothers." Luo An’s eyes narrowed: "They’re also among the top assassins in ’Skull Flower’. " "The James triplets are triplets who grew up together, taking on missions together. All three brothers are among the top snipers, and they also have strong close combat abilities. Plus, they always team up for whatever they do, often fighting three against one, so few people mess with them." The sniper rifle bullets left at the scene were also a reason for Sevin’s suspicion; the James triplets have never changed their sniper rifle, always using the M40 since their debut. Luo An was slightly surprised to hear about the James triplets’ identity; triplets were indeed rare, let alone triplets who all became assassins. But this is, after all, the federation, where talent abounds, and heroes are everywhere, so triplet assassins are not particularly unusual. Keeping this information in mind, Luo An asked: "Do you have a way to contact ’King Bar,’ ’Undying Kyle,’ ’Blue-eyed Roy,’ ’Red-Backed Spider’ Brenna, these assassins?" Out of caution, Luo An did not directly state his target but instead inquired about getting in touch with all the assassins. "You just said it yourself, I’m just a second-tier assassin. Coming to Chicago to guard as an assassin is just to earn some money that the top-tier assassins look down upon. " Sevin gave a bitter smile and shook his head: "How could I possibly have their contact information?" Luo An smiled and quietly pulled a pistol from behind his back, waving it in front of Sevin, speaking amiably: "People always subconsciously deny themselves, thinking they are not capable. But without pushing yourself, you never know what your potential and limits are. Come on, try to explore your potential, believe in yourself, I think you can." Mona twitched the corner of her mouth, and Sevin felt a chill dousing his enthusiasm with Luo An’s steaming motivational speech. Sevin was instinctively about to curse, but seeing Luo An’s actions, he silently suppressed the words. As time ticked by, beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on Sevin’s forehead. Just as Luo An moved his finger to the safety catch, Sevin’s eyes brightened and he shouted: Luo An nodded in satisfaction, patting Sevin’s shoulder: "See, believe in yourself, you do have potential." Sevin’s face twitched as he said: "There’s an old guy named Weber, he used to be an assassin broker. Before the ’Skull Blossom’ organization was established, many assassins got their jobs through him. Later, when ’Skull Blossom’ was formed, Old Weber left the assassin brokering business and started crafting and selling weapons for assassins. If you’re looking for top-tier assassins, Old Weber’s place would have useful information." Luo An nodded in understanding, knowing that when platforms rise strongly, lone wolves who do not want to be exploited have no choice but to leave. After a brief inquiry, under the horrified gazes of Sevin and Jaden, Luo An knocked them both out with a swing of his fists. Mona was tapping on the keyboard nearby, investigating the former assassin broker Weber based on the clues provided by Sevin. After considering for a moment, Luo An took out his phone and called Chenier. The call was quickly answered, and Luo An asked: "How are things on your end?" "You called just in time; I was about to call you." Chenier’s excited voice came through the phone, and she said with a laugh: "Reesi, under a fake identity, got some leads in the underworld of Las Vegas. Three people were involved in the attack on the Las Vegas customer service center, identities unclear. After destroying the center, a group of newcomers confronted them, resulting in a fierce battle that left several dead bodies before leaving Las Vegas just before the police arrived. We couldn’t get the bodies, but we got photos of their appearances, and we are currently trying to identify them." Luo An praised Chenier, then briefly shared the information Sevin had provided. Chenier’s expression changed slightly: "So, the photos of the bodies we got, they might have been frontline assassins of the ’Skull Blossom’ when alive?" "But we can’t rule out that they might just be innocent bystanders caught in the crossfire, or opportunists trying to fish in troubled waters." The habit of joining the fray is common among federal people too; every year, a number are killed or injured by stray bullets while watching events unfold. Just as Luo An was about to continue talking to Chenier, Mona suddenly tugged at his sleeve, her expression grave: "That Weber is already dead." Mona showed the clues she had found to Luo An, speaking solemnly: "His house was burned, he was tortured to death, it was gruesome." Luo An’s expression remained unchanged as he patted Mona’s shoulder, then speaking into the phone: "Chenier, pack up and get ready to move, our next stop: Philadelphia."
