Chapter 961 The Assassin Camel Has Arrived
Chapter 961 The Assassin Camel Has Arrived
"Alright, our CEO Ji is still the best!"
Wu Jiajun said with a smile.
He naturally understood what Ji Xiuhan meant!
As for Lao Niu, he had been preparing ever since Zhao Long and his companion failed.
Seeing that the night was deep and it was already past eleven o'clock, he left the room and disappeared silently into the night.
On the vast sea, the wind and waves were calm, and a waning moon hung in the inky sky.
Standing on the beach, gazing at the distant island of A, Old Niu sighed, "This is the only way now. We have to get there in these small kayaks. Otherwise, if we take a helicopter, it will definitely alert Ji Xiuhan, causing him to send out all his bodyguards to take action."
"Ji Xiuhan's bodyguards must be furious right now and have made thorough preparations. If I show my face, they will definitely open fire and kill me."
As he muttered to himself, the old ox nimbly boarded the kayak and quickly headed towards A Island.
"Has Old Niu already made his move?"
And he went there alone in a kayak?
Old Niu's every move had already been observed by the undercover agents arranged by Hu Jinlong.
The sentry immediately reported the news to Hu Jinlong, who then passed it on to Shangguan Fei.
They had been waiting for Lao Niu to make a move, so they could use the "mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind" tactic.
The time is ripe, and it's time for Shangguan Fei to make his move.
"Now that Old Niu has set off, it's time for me to get moving too!"
This was the moment Shangguan Fei had been waiting for.
"Senior Shangguan, how do you plan to get there?"
Hu Jinlong couldn't help but ask, after all, A Island was an independent island in the vast sea, and their place was more than ten nautical miles away from it.
"Naturally, just like with the old ox, do you expect me to take a helicopter there?"
Shangguan Fei said coldly, his tone carrying a hint of disdain.
"But riding in a kayak is too risky and too slow!"
Hu Jinlong frowned and shook his head, clearly feeling that this method was inappropriate.
"You brat, you've wasted all these years in this industry! For us, there's no such thing as hardship or not hardship. We only care about results. As long as we can successfully take down our target, any price we pay is worth it."
"Isn't it just crossing the ocean alone?"
"If that killer camel guy can do it at his age, of course I can too!"
Shangguan Fei waved his hand, and before he finished speaking, he strode outside.
"How about I arrange for two people to follow you, so you can have some backup?"
Hu Jinlong hurriedly caught up and said.
"Following me will only be a burden!"
Shangguan Fei walked straight towards the shore.
It turned out he had prepared the kayak long ago.
Of course, he didn't immediately follow the old ox, but stood quietly on the beach waiting. After about twenty or thirty minutes, he quietly started the kayak and set off towards A Island.
The engine of this kayak is extremely quiet; when it is sailing on the sea, you can hardly hear it.
Although there is no wind tonight and the sea appears calm on the surface, only by going deeper can one discover that the waters beneath are still turbulent and turbulent.
The small kayak bobbed and swayed in the waves, as if it could be capsized by a giant wave and sink to the bottom of the sea at any moment.
When the old ox slowly drove to the vicinity of A Island, more than an hour had passed, and it was now one o'clock in the morning.
This is the time when people fall asleep.
For these top assassins, it's natural that they have in-depth knowledge of human sleep patterns.
Looking at the island so close at hand, Old Niu sighed again.
He knew perfectly well that Ji Xiuhan's bodyguards were constantly monitoring the situation around the island.
Once they get close, the kayak will inevitably be spotted, and then the bodyguards will open fire without hesitation.
Seeing that they were a few miles closer to the island, Lao Niu made a decisive decision: he abandoned the kayak, plunged into the sea, and swam towards the shore.
Another full hour passed before the old ox quietly peeked out from behind the rocks on the shore and carefully climbed onto the island.
He was dressed in black night clothes, his figure blending into the thick darkness, almost undetectable.
He knew perfectly well that Ji Xiuhan must have installed countless surveillance cameras on this island. He dared not be careless in the slightest, and crept forward slowly and stealthily.
Only in this way can one possibly evade those ubiquitous surveillance cameras.
"You all better be alert! Tonight, assassins will definitely sneak in. Make sure you guard your assigned areas well, and no one is allowed to be careless!"
"Once a suspicious target is detected, kill them immediately without giving them any chance to explain or escape!"
It was already past 2 a.m., the time when people are most likely to feel sleepy.
The bodyguards, lurking in the shadows, were constantly whispering reminders to each other.
They knew that today was a crucial day to protect Ji Xiuhan, and they had to be on high alert, not letting any clue slip by.
Of course, some people knew that someone had come to protect Ji Xiuhan.
However, that person was just an ordinary middle-aged man, and they had no idea how strong he really was.
All they knew was that they were facing super assassins whose methods were terrifying and impossible to guard against, far more frightening than the two who had dived into the ocean to make their move.
After all, this is an island, and a well-known vacation spot for couples.
The bodyguards dared not patrol openly; they could only hide in various corners, closely observing everything around them.
Even though these bodyguards were vigilant enough and observed carefully enough, they were facing the super assassin Lao Niu, the once-famous assassin Ren Tuo.
Twenty minutes later, Lao Niu actually managed to slip away unnoticed, avoiding everyone's gaze and surveillance cameras, and stealthily made his way to a corner of the hotel.
He looked up, squinting, and quietly peered into the dimly lit master bedroom on the second floor.
That was Ji Xiuhan's bedroom.
"Master, I wonder if you are feeling any better now. Regardless of whether I can escape alive this time, I will definitely kill Ji Xiuhan and remove this major threat to you!"
"Even if I die, I'll drag him down with me!"
Old Niu involuntarily looked towards the distant capital, sighed softly in his heart, but his eyes became incredibly firm.
Then, a very thin steel wire quietly appeared in his hand. He carefully extended the wire and precisely probed it through the crack in the window into the room on the second floor.
The wire was so thin and completely black that even if someone knew there was a wire hidden there, they wouldn't be able to spot it without looking very closely.
Although Lao Niu was confident, he also knew that Ji Xiuhan was no ordinary person and had many bodyguards around him. Therefore, this time, he had to use mind-control drugs to ensure everything went smoothly.
"It's already past two o'clock. Do you think those two old men, Lao Niu and his companion, will come again tonight?"
By 2 a.m., even the energetic Ji Xiuhan felt a wave of drowsiness. He rubbed his temples and looked at Wu Jiajun beside him with some suspicion.
Unexpectedly, the Wu family army looked radiant, showing no signs of fatigue on their faces, but rather exuding excitement, with a faint smile on their lips.
Will they come?
My dear President Ji, not only have they arrived, they're already downstairs, and they've even started taking action!
Wu Jiajun suddenly spoke, and before he finished speaking, he flicked his finger. A tiny, almost imperceptible speck of powder drifted out and flew precisely toward the window.
Ji Xiuhan's heart skipped a beat, and he was instantly wide awake. "It's really here?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he wrinkled his nose slightly, as if he smelled a faint, strange odor.
But when he focused his attention and smelled it again, the strange smell had vanished without a trace.
His expression changed involuntarily.
"You're quite perceptive."
Wu Jiajun chuckled lightly, his tone carrying a hint of approval.
Of course, the sleeping potion had already been completely neutralized by the antidote he released with a flick of his finger.
Since the Wu family army has become the renowned Killing Emperor, it must possess unparalleled strength.
Besides, he was very familiar with the assassins' modus operandi. He had long anticipated that after infiltrating, the assassins would use a sleeping potion immediately to ensure the success of the assassination and to avoid causing too much of a commotion.
His ears and eyes were already trained to be beyond those of ordinary people. He didn't even need to go out to check; he had already heard the other party's movements the moment Lao Niu approached the hotel.
Even the slightest, almost imperceptible sound of the old ox's thin steel wire accidentally hitting the window frame was clearly heard by him.
He didn't even need to look to know what Lao Niu wanted to do.
So, long before Lao Niu's highly toxic sleeping potion could even drift into the room, he flicked his finger and silently spread the antidote throughout the room.
"They used a sleeping potion, and you've already cracked it?"
Ji Xiuhan reacted instantly.
"That's exactly right, my dear CEO!"
Wu Jiajun nodded, his smile widening.
"Who is coming?"
Ji Xiuhan hurriedly pressed for answers, his eyes filled with urgency.
"I'm afraid you'll be disappointed. It's not the person ranked third on the assassin list who's coming, but that hunchbacked old man."
Wu Jiajun said slowly.
"Old Niu?"
Ji Xiuhan's pupils suddenly contracted. "That person ranked third isn't with him? Besides the Ye family, are there other forces secretly targeting me?"
