Let them offer their loyalty

Dark, old and dilapidated.

It can be said that it embodies all the elements that a killer likes.

It is not easy to be discovered, easy to hide, has no surveillance, and is even out of reach of the peacekeeping forces.

It's a perfect place for a killer to hide.

Of course, in a sense, it is also the easiest location to find.

Given the prosperity of the Smerika district, the probability of such a place appearing is not high. In other words, if you want to find such a place, you only need to pay attention to the blind spots of the peacekeeping force's vision and then perform a reverse screening.

This method is very troublesome for ordinary people, but for people of Jonas's class, it is really a simple thing to find each other in this way.

But as a killer, Piers obviously didn't think too much about it.

Sitting in the dim room where the broken light bulb kept flickering, the man's eyes flickered.

On the dusty table, Piers, who was called "Wingless Bird" by the killers in the other world, was wiping the silver pistol in his hand.

On the table nearby were some syringes filled with green liquid, which was a corpse decomposing agent used to conceal the real cause of death. This was also one of Piers' habits.

After killing the target, adding a dose of corpse decomposition agent can save him a lot of trouble. In fact, he has escaped the pursuit of the consortium many times because of this habit.

As a killer, Piers' professionalism is definitely top-notch. To be able to become a title-level killer, Piers relies not only on his assassination skills, but a larger part of his factors is because of his keen intuition and vigilant character.

After inserting the green syringe into the launcher, Piers carefully wiped the body of the launcher.

To be honest, this mission was quite challenging for Piers, but it didn't mean that the assassination of Jonas was difficult.

It’s just because of this kind of infighting within the consortium that those who participate in the assassination often don’t have a good ending.

The most difficult thing for a killer is to lose his home advantage. Once he is in his home field, he has absolute intelligence and the probability of failure will be reduced to the lowest...

Unless his employer betrays him, there are basically no targets that fail in assassination.

In fact, all active killers have a high assassination success rate.

After all, if he fails, the killer will face death.

Because of this, the earlier a killer becomes famous, the higher his prestige in the industry. And this kind of killer often has a rule, that is, they will not take jobs related to infighting within the consortium.

And Piers is one of these people. As for the reason for making an exception this time...

Of course, it was because Belloc Butz from the Wettin Group gave too much.

Close to two million credit points... With this money, he might be able to quit the assassin world completely, buy an island and live out the rest of his life in comfort, without having to hide from the consortium.

And the other reason...is naturally because Piers is confident that he can leave the control of the Wetting Consortium before the other party turns against him.

He knew very well what kind of person Belloc Boots was, and before accepting each mission, he would investigate the employer's character.

Belloc Butz is a cunning and despicable man. After completing his mission, he will definitely find a way to kill me to prevent the news of his assassination from being exposed.

The only means he could use to counterattack was to keep evidence of Belloc Butz to ensure the subsequent delivery of the commissioned funds went smoothly.

No matter who is the winner of the internal strife of the consortium, as a killer, he will definitely be liquidated...and this is only something that needs to be considered after the assassination is successful. As for the possibility of failure of the assassination, he has never considered it at all.

Jonas Wettin might be famous to others, but to him he was just a brat.

The biggest reliance of these consortium heirs is the consortium behind them, and once they lose their reliance, they are nothing more than a tiger with its teeth pulled out.

And how could he, who had the advantage in intelligence, possibly——

"Open the door, check the water meter——"

Before I could finish my thoughts, the door was blown open with a sound.

--boom

Wood chips and stone chips flew everywhere.

Then, the sound of the bullet leaving the gun was accompanied by the sound of breaking through the air, leaving a spray of blood on Piers' leg.

Piers groaned in pain and subconsciously reached for his waist, trying to pull out his gun to fight back, but the moment his hand touched his waist, the bullet pierced his palm, interrupting his movement and causing his body to fall to the ground.

He looked with horror at the man who was gradually walking in from the door, and the girls following behind him.

It was Jonas and his group.

The gun in Eiffel's hand was still smoking. It was obvious that she was the one who had fired the shot that caused the other person to lose the ability to move.

"Mr. Pierce, although you may know me, let me introduce myself."

Jonas looked at the man lying on the ground in front of him and couldn't help but smile and said:

"I am Jonas Wettin, heir to the Wettin Group."

Piers covered his legs and looked at Jonas with fear in his eyes.

Piers didn't understand why his employer could find his hiding place when even he didn't know where he was.

And judging from the other party's behavior, it is obvious that they had planned this incident long ago...

He gritted his teeth, endured the fear and pain, looked at Jonas, and said:

"Who are you? I don't think I have offended you."

Hearing this, Jonas sighed.

Eiffel seemed to understand what he meant and shot and broke Piers' other leg.

Following the sound of a bang, Piers couldn't help but groan.

Blood was flowing out, and his heart sank to the bottom. He knew that he couldn't fool around today, so he could only say:

"How did you find me?"

Hearing this, Jonas' eyes flashed with a smile, and he spoke with a slightly playful tone:

"Why do you think I came to the Smerika district two days in advance, Mr. Piers?"

Hearing this, his pupils suddenly shrank and a name subconsciously popped up in his mind.

—Belloq Butz.

.................................................

PS:

This chapter

There are two more chapters, which will be posted before 6am.

Chapter 65 Who said I can’t come?

After hearing Jonas' words, Piers subconsciously thought of Belloc Butz.

It's no wonder that he thought of his employer. Most of the information about the killer was known only to the employer. If it weren't for the information leaked by Belloc Butz, he really couldn't think of a second possibility.

Why would the other party betray him?

Piers soon figured out the reason...Mr. Belloc Butz wanted him and Jonas to die together.

He deliberately leaked the news to Jonas, and then let himself reap the benefits without even having to pay the nearly two million credit points.

He gritted his teeth, feeling unwilling and angry, and struggled to speak:

"First, don't kill me. I can provide you with evidence."

What is being talked about here is of course the evidence of Belloc Booth hiring someone to commit murder. Since it involves infighting within the consortium, this piece of evidence will definitely come in handy for the other party.

If he gave this evidence to Jonas, the other party might spare his life.

Hearing this, Jonas became interested. He looked at Piers in front of him and asked with interest:

"What evidence? Send it to me."

Upon hearing that there was a chance, Piers no longer looked as grim as before.

He took a deep breath and sent the reserved information in his personal account to Jonas.

After receiving the relevant information sent by the other party, Jonas's face showed a more subtle expression.

It must be said that this was much more detailed evidence than he had imagined. Based on this piece of evidence alone, Jonas felt that he could directly convict Mr. Belloc of the board of directors.

It contains all the records of Belloc logging onto the dark web to recruit killers, and of course all the transaction records between him and Piers.

Seeing Jonas's gesture, Piers felt relieved.

He thought the other party let him go because of this evidence, but before he could open his mouth, Eiffel pointed the black muzzle of a gun at his head.

Seeing the muzzle of a gun suddenly appear in front of him, Piers's brain went blank for a moment, and the next second, he saw the girl pull the trigger without hesitation.

--boom.

The bullet went through his head.

Until his death, Piers' expression was still one of confusion and puzzlement.

With a thud, Piers' body fell completely to the ground, blood still flowing out from the bullet hole.

Seeing this scene, Jonas spoke helplessly.

"After all, she is the one who provided us with evidence. How could Miss Eiffel be killed so easily?"

Upon hearing this, Eiffel just glanced at Jonas without saying much, but he couldn't help but complain in his heart.

——Ha, you’re still pretending. Didn’t you just wink at me to shoot?

Esni saw the exchange of glances between the two. For some reason, the girl named [Black Warrior] always felt a little uncomfortable when she saw this scene.

On the other side, watching the exchange of glances between the two, Tokiwa Ryoko inexplicably felt a chill down her spine.

She glanced at the corpse on the ground and couldn't help but think of her own situation, feeling a sense of grief for the victim.

I always feel that I will be the next one to be abandoned.

With this thought in mind, Tokiwa Ryoko took a deep breath and couldn't help feeling a sense of crisis.

No matter what, we must not let the devil catch us during this period of time.

.........................................

Jonas naturally didn't realize that his actions had actually made Ms. Tokiwa Ryoko less lazy.

Of course, if he knew, Jonas might even praise the other party in person for being able to judge the situation and being worthy of being an elite of the Nathan Group.

Let’s get back to the point.

In his opinion, the purpose of this trip to the Smerika district had actually been achieved by almost half after getting rid of Piers.

The significance of this so-called Hongmen Banquet to him was just to make those old dogs on the board of directors quiet down a little.

Of course, in order to avoid any sudden changes during this period, after Jonas dealt with Piers, he also sent an unclear message to Belloc Butz using the other party's private account.

The message said that the mission was completed very smoothly, Jonas had been beheaded, and he also took a photo of Jonas lying in a pool of blood...

The photo was of course fake, and the person who took it was Miss Esni.

After receiving the photo, Belloc Butz readily followed Jonas' instructions and transferred about one million credit points into his account.

More than one million...this is not a small number.

In a sense, this also fulfilled Jonas' dream of collecting the bounty on his own head.

....................................

Smerika District, Wettin Consortium Headquarters

It's time as originally agreed.

The members of the board of directors all had different expressions. After all, in a sense, this was the first time that the board of directors had made open sanctions against Jonas. Some members of the board of directors had even discussed beforehand how to divide Jonas's property.

Among these members, the one who looked the most calm was undoubtedly Mr. Belloc.

After all, he had learned earlier that Jonas had died at the hands of Piers.

And he is the only one who knows this news for now. When the current storm is over, he will take the evidence to ask the board of directors to transfer Jonas's property to his name.

In his opinion, what happened today was just a formality... After all, the parties involved are no longer around, so there is no accountability or pursuit.

There were still ten minutes left before the originally agreed time, but Jonas was nowhere to be seen during this period, which made many board members feel dissatisfied.

"So are you sure Jonas will come?" a female board member asked impatiently.
