Molly was not good at negotiation, so the negotiation part was handled by the cowboy.
She only needs to keep a close eye on the other party and prevent him from escaping.
The middle-aged man named Shi Muxiong did not intend to run away. He seemed to really not understand what was going on. He frowned and asked:
"I just want to kill Jim's family. Is there a high-ranking member of the Skull Gang in their family?"
"You really don't know?"
The cowboy asked, raising an eyebrow.
Shi Muxiong asked back: "What should I know?"
"Who do you really want to kill?"
"Jim Hawthorne."
"So if we can't kill anyone but Jim, would you be willing to just kill Jim?"
“…I remember that my commission was to eliminate the Hawthorn family.”
“That’s right, but the problem now is that Lydia from the Hawthorn family is very powerful.”
The cowboy and the man were talking to each other, until the topic reached a stalemate and they both fell silent.
The man Shi Muxiong seemed to understand something. He raised his hand and rubbed his temple, saying:
"It looks like I might have to pay more... Do you mind talking somewhere else?"
"I can't ask for it."
The cowboy said so, and then the three of them left the cemetery together, sat down in a fast food restaurant near the cemetery, and ordered two cups of coffee and a Coke.
By the way, the Coke belongs to Molly.
After they sat down in the cafe and had their drinks served, Ishiki Xiong asked:
“According to what you said, Lydia’s status is very important?”
"do not you know?"
"I know you suspect me, but unfortunately, I really don't know who Lydia is. I only know that she is Jim's wife. The person I really want to kill is Jim."
Ishikio sighed and said.
Molly and the cowboy exchanged a look.
Her intuition told her that Ishiki Xiong was not lying, but she was just a newcomer in this regard, so she had to let Cowboy make the judgment and she would not express her opinion.
The cowboy stroked his sparse stubble on his chin and suddenly asked:
"Can I know why you want to kill Jim?"
"You mercenaries kill people, do you still ask why?"
"Sometimes I ask, sometimes I don't. But now, I need to use the reason to judge whether what you said is true or false."
Shi Muxiong breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
He seemed reluctant to talk about these things, but in order for the cowboy to complete his commission, Shi Muxiong still told the reason:
"… It's simple, Jim, he killed my wife and my daughter."
"...!"
The cowboy's eyes widened.
Shi Muxiong took a deep breath and did not continue speaking. He asked, "Now, do you still want to continue asking questions?"
Cowboy and Molly don't talk.
Molly recalled the names on the tombstones she had seen in the cemetery before, and was not surprised by the reason given by Shi Muxiong.
The cowboy just remained silent and did not ask any more questions.
This reason alone is enough, or even if Ishikiong's real enemy is Lydia, this reason alone is enough to explain everything.
Although this is somewhat inconsistent with the rules of mercenaries, sometimes mercenaries don't need to be so obedient.
So the cowboy immediately changed the subject and said to Ishiki Xiong:
"You don't have enough money."
"What's the meaning."
"If you just want us to kill Jim, you have more than enough money. But if you want us to get rid of the Hawthorne family, you don't have enough money. The bounty on Lydia is several times the amount of money you paid, so... you understand."
The cowboy said seriously.
He understood Ishi Muxiong because the cowboy himself had a daughter.
His wife died of illness a few years ago. To Cowboy, his daughter is everything to him.
If someone killed his daughter, he would definitely spend all his money and use all means to get rid of the enemy, so he understood Ishi Muxiong's approach.
However, being able to understand does not mean that he can accept it. Ishi Muxiong's wife and daughter have nothing to do with cowboys. He can sympathize with them, but he cannot go against the principles of mercenaries.
Not to mention that Lydia is really difficult to deal with. Just a few hundred thousand is not worth their lives working for Shi Muxiong.
To put it simply, Ishikyu has to pay more money.
Therefore, there are only two choices before Ishikio. One is to give up killing other people and just concentrate on dealing with Jim.
Another is to add money.
And Shi Muxiong chose the latter as expected:
"How much do you want?"
"We won't lie to you. Lydia's worth is several times that of Jim. Counting the 120,000 you promised before, you only need to give us another 450,000. Of course, this is the price after completing the commission."
"Five hundred and seventy thousand in all, is that right?"
"Correct."
The cowboy nodded.
In fact, he could raise the price to 500,000. This price was a little higher than the regular price, but not much higher. Normally, commissions of this level would be priced at this price.
But perhaps because Ishikio's experience really made the cowboy sympathize with him, he lowered the price a little, but 450,000 was already the limit. If it was any lower, there would be no need to accept this commission.
Four hundred and fifty thousand plus the previous twenty thousand is a total of five hundred and seventy thousand US dollars.
This price is simply astronomical for ordinary people living in the city of chaos.
No one at the lower class could afford this price, and looking at Ishikyuu's appearance, he didn't look like a rich man, so the cowboy doubted whether he could afford this price.
If the other party really can't afford it, then he will consider the previous suggestion, which is to concentrate on dealing with Jim.
But... Ishikio doesn't seem to have such an idea.
The sky-high hiring fee made Shi Muxiong silent for a long time, but he had no intention of giving up. He just nodded and said:
"Give me three days, and I will contact you then."
"…Are you sure you want to do this?"
The cowboy asked with a complicated expression.
If Shi Muxiong could really afford hundreds of thousands, he would definitely not stay here, so it can be predicted that Shi Muxiong's next way of obtaining money would definitely not be so formal.
It could be borrowing, it could be organ trading, or it could even be selling the entire thing to a biological group.
In the Cowboys' view, it's just not worth it.
The person who had a grudge against Ishikio was Jim, so he could just kill Jim, there was no need to do this.
Shi Muxiong took a sip of the coffee on the table and said:
"I have nothing left."
After he said this, he got up and left.
Cowboy and Molly looked at his back and didn't say anything after he left.
After an unknown amount of time, Molly asked the cowboy:
"So what do we do next? Continue to deal with the Hawthorns?"
"The plan for Jim remains unchanged. As for Lydia...you can handle it yourself."
The cowboy sighed.
In any case, apart from Jim's money, Shi Muxiong can afford it. The key issue still lies with Lydia.
But the cowboy is not responsible for Lydia, the person who is responsible for Lydia is Molly.
Although the cowboy also knew that letting a sixteen-year-old girl deal with a "madam" who was in charge of the Skeleton Gang's flesh trade was somewhat like sending a sheep into the tiger's mouth.
But there was no other way. Only Molly could do this job. If the cowboy had come into contact with Lydia, he would probably have been sealed with cement and sunk into the river by Delia the next day.
So Lydia is left to Molly to deal with, and as far as the situation goes, Molly is doing a good job.
Chapter 52 [Murderer Molly]
Molly couldn't be said to have done a good job in contacting Lydia.
She had almost exceeded her target.
As for the reason, it is very simple. Molly discovered that Lydia seemed to have a special feeling towards her.
To put it simply...Lydia wanted to ask Molly to do something that would make her husband cheat on her.
Ever since she talked with Cowboy and Ishiki Xiong, Molly went to Lydia's house every day these days, and every time Lydia acted overly intimate with Molly.
And Lydia would tell Molly from time to time that she liked Molly's simplicity.
The innocence shown by Molly was a disguise to Lydia, but Lydia didn't know this. Precisely because Molly disguised herself so well, Molly now seemed to have become the white moonlight in Delia's mind.
If... Molly wasn't a girl now, if Molly was the casual type, if Lydia wasn't married.
Maybe now Molly has already had sex with Lydia at her house, and as for the commission, she has probably forgotten about it long ago.
But it is precisely because there are no ifs that Molly keeps her distance from Lydia.
Lydia didn't seem to want to force Molly to do something she didn't like, so although their relationship was close during this period, it was just enough.
In this regard, Lydia is somewhat reassuring.
Perhaps it is because there is a risk of being exposed if doing those things at home that Lydia did not do so. The specific reason is probably only known to Lydia herself.
In this way, they got along well with Lydia. When the three-day deadline was up, their employer Ishikio contacted the two again and told them that the money had been collected, allowing Molly and Cowboy to continue their action.
In fact, the action is mainly aimed at Lydia and her son Yager.
The action against Jim has been prepared, and now we just need to wait for the day of the "deal" agreed with Jim.
The key lies with Lydia.
Although Molly and Lydia seem to have a good relationship, Lydia is actually wary of everyone, including Molly.
She usually brings someone with her when she goes out, and even at home, there are bodyguards downstairs.
The house is equipped with surveillance cameras and alarm devices. Lydia is also a silver member of Sita Biology. If anything happens to Lydia, Sita Biology's rescue team will rush over here immediately.
Although Molly is also a member of Theta Biology, when she is not injured and the insurance is not effective, if she wants to be hostile to the policyholders of Theta Biology, then she is also an enemy of the Theta Biology rescue team.
Therefore, in order to deal with Lydia, we need to find a way to block Sita Bio's detection of Lydia.
Jim is easier to deal with. He has no insurance. As long as the Cowboy and Molly's plan goes well, it will be very easy to kill Jim.
Lydia is still in trouble. The cowboy can't think of any solution for the time being, and the same goes for Molly.
But Molly wasn't particularly anxious about this.
Because a week had passed, Molly could finally start summoning blue skin.
According to previous inferences, people with blue skin must have abilities that ordinary people cannot possess, or their skills in certain aspects must reach the "extraordinary" level.
Perhaps the new skin can help Molly complete this commission. Anyway, no matter what kind of skin is summoned, it should be helpful for this commission.
Molly thought so.
……
"Blue skin, let me see what I can summon."
