The next night, in Tom Barrett's second-floor bedroom, a man in black clothes hurried in, only to witness an embarrassing scene.
Tom Barrett lay in bed, his head bandaged, and both his arms tightly encased in plaster casts.
But the quilt on him was highly raised, with only a lower body exposed from the bedside.
Tom Barrett, looking like a mummy, had an expression of pure enjoyment on his face.
"Cough, cough ~"
The man in black coughed awkwardly, cursing silently in his heart.
Those sons of bitches downstairs deliberately wanted him to be scolded by the boss! They didn't even give a warning.
Hearing the sound, the woman under the quilt quickly emerged, tidied her disheveled hair, and walked out, showing no embarrassment throughout.
The man in black recognized her; wasn't she the nurse who had been taking care of Tom Barrett at the hospital earlier?
"You'd better bring me good news!"
His good time had been interrupted, Tom Barrett said with a gloomy face.
"Cough, cough, Tom, something's not right!" The man in black said cautiously, where was the good news?
"Those two assassins haven't returned, but tonight the police found two bloodstains in an alley near the Grand Bleu Bar. I suspect..."
Hearing this, Tom Barrett's face grew even gloomier: "You suspect those two assassins were taken out by that kid?"
The man in black nodded lightly. What other explanation could there be?
If those two bloodstains weren't from the two assassins, they would have been back by now!
"Useless! You can't even handle such a small matter. What good are you?"
"Go find more people! I must take out that kid. If he doesn't die, my hatred won't be appeased!"
Tom Barrett cursed furiously, his face contorted with savagery.
If both his arms weren't broken, he would have wanted to hit someone!
After venting, Tom Barrett calmed down, panting as he asked, "Have you found out that kid's background?"
The man in black shook his head lightly: "We only know his name is Leon. From his accent, he should be from the mainland. He was just promoted to captain by the Red Maple Gang (Branch V) a few days ago. There's no more information!"
"Investigate! Dig up his entire ancestry!"
"And arrange for people again. You must take him out for me. Money is not an issue!" Tom Barrett said with a grim expression.
"Yes, Tom!" The man in black nodded quickly and left.
He had just reached the door when he heard Tom Barrett's voice: "Call her back in for me!"
...Two in the morning!
Glancing at the sleeping Catherine, Leon slowly withdrew his arm, carefully put on his clothes, and left the room.
Out on the street, there was hardly anyone to be seen!
After walking a long distance, he found a common black 1953 Ford Customline. Without hesitation, he smashed the car window with his elbow.
He got in, pulled out the wires, started the ignition, stepped on the clutch, shifted gears, and drove away!
The entire process took less than ten seconds; a car was thus stolen by Leon... Three in the morning, outside Tom Barrett's lair, Leon stopped the car and quietly looked at the villa in the darkness.
It was called a villa, but it was just a self-built two-story house, not very expensive.
The lights were already out, and the people inside were asleep. It was time for him to get to work.
He took out two Colt .45 pistols, disengaged the safety, and chambered a round!
He leaped over the high courtyard wall. The front door was locked, so he walked to a window, gently pushed it, and found it was open.
Opening the window, Leon agilely slipped inside and entered the living room. There was no one inside, only a few snores coming from the rooms on the first floor.
He quietly opened a bedroom door; a guy was soundly asleep on the bed.
He put away the pistol, and the dagger reappeared in his hand. He silently walked forward, covered the man's mouth, and plunged the dagger fiercely into his heart.
"Hiss, hiss ~"
"Woo woo woo ~"
Blood spurted. The immense pain made him suddenly open his eyes. He struggled violently but couldn't make a sound.
He could only helplessly feel the strength draining from his body.
"Don't be nervous, it will be over soon!"
Leon said in a low voice, pressing tightly against his body to prevent him from making any sound.
Soon, the man's body stopped moving!
Next, Leon repeated the process and killed another person, but when he walked into the third room, the sight before him made his face twitch.
Eye-watering!
Three big men were lying on one bed, two of them even embracing each other. Needless to say, they must be like-minded individuals.
"Damn it, that's really disgusting!"
Leon put away his dagger, preparing to use his pistol to solve the problem.
He couldn't guarantee that after taking out one person, he wouldn't alert the other two.
And most importantly, if he were to have any physical contact with these three 'rabbits,' he feared he would have nightmares.
"Bang bang bang ~!"
Three consecutive shots, each a headshot. The three entangled lovers in their sleep trembled slightly and died without even making a sound.
"Who's there? Someone broke in!"
The gunshots woke the others. Immediately, people rushed out of other rooms, but as soon as they opened their doors, they were met with a dense hail of bullets.
"Bang bang bang bang ~!"
Inside the villa, gunshots rang out. Three people who rushed out of a room all fell to the ground with bullet wounds to their chests and abdomens.
He glanced at these dead men; he didn't recognize any of them. Tom Barrett wasn't among them.
"Ah ~"
At this moment, hearing the dense gunshots in the villa, a woman's scream came from a bedroom on the second floor.
Leon quickly ran to the second floor, arrived at the bedroom door, and without any hesitation, fired his gun through the wooden door.
"Bang bang bang bang ~"
A burst of wild gunfire, and the screaming inside stopped.
"Crash!"
Leon kicked open the door and rushed in.
Two people lay on the bedroom floor. The one in front was a beautiful woman.
But there were several bullet holes in her chest, her eyes wide open. She was dead!
Lying behind her was Tom Barrett. Although he had also been shot twice, he was still alive.
It seemed he had used the nurse as a human shield!
Tom Barrett held a gun, but unfortunately, both of his arms had been broken earlier, so he couldn't fire it at all.
Shot twice in the stomach, immense pain swept through his body, and his forehead was covered in cold sweat.
He struggled to lift his head and looked towards the door, his eyes suddenly widening.
"It's you!"
He instantly recognized Leon's face. This was the person who had broken his arms.
He could never forget it!
"We meet again, Tom Barrett!"
Leon slowly walked in, his indifferent eyes fixed on Tom Barrett, emitting a faint killing intent.
"Su—Leon, the assassins' matter has nothing to do with me, I didn't do it!"
"Don't kill me!"
Tom Barrett pleaded, drenched in cold sweat and filled with terror.
He was scared!
He never expected this bumpkin from the mainland to be so ruthless, directly barging into his lair and killing people!
"What assassin? Did I mention anything about an assassin? Why are you so nervous?" Leon said indifferently.
Nonsense, with a guilty conscience, how could he not be nervous!
"Leon, I have money, a lot of money, all in the safe."
"If you spare my life, I'll give it all to you!" Tom Barrett pleaded desperately, lying on the ground.
But Leon sneered disdainfully, having no desire to waste more words with him, and pointed his gun at his head.
"Idiot, if I kill you, all that money will be mine too!"
"Bang!"
As his words fell, Tom Barrett was directly shot in the head.
