「Heiyan City, suburbs.」
Inside a dilapidated old house, Mr. Diao of the Filth Earth Organization held his phone, repeatedly dialing the same number, his face a mask of anxiety and frustration.
His call log showed that he had already dialed the number dozens of times, but each time it just rang endlessly with no answer.
"Hello, the number you have dialed is temporarily unavailable, please..." As the familiar female voice came from the phone again, Mr. Diao immediately hung up. He pressed the button so hard that spiderweb cracks appeared across the screen.
Mr. Diao stared at the cracked phone screen. He wanted to just throw it away, but, refusing to give up, he dialed the number one more time.
Unexpectedly, it was answered after just two rings.
"Mr. Fen!" Mr. Diao's voice was filled with excitement. "I finally reached you! Was your mission successful?"
"Mission complete. Target eliminated!" The voice on the other end was firm and resonant.
