Captivated by the Ruler of the Underworld

Chapter 5 The Wolf Gang’s Assassin

Michael kicked at the ground in frustration. [Dammit, I can't believe that we didn't get anything out of him.]

Their assassin actually committed suicide by biting a capsule of arsenic between his teeth like some movie villain.

The bodyguard was startled, "The Wolf Gang's men? Have we done something to offended them?"

Michael's face fell as he murmured, "Their men always snatch other people's prey. Could they know about the Mutant?"

The bodyguard didn't understand what Michael was talking about. All he heard was trouble., It would be a huge problem if they couldn't find the mastermind behind this assassination plot.

"Michael, there must be someone pulling the strings behind this. If we don't catch the person behind it, we will be in deep trouble."

They knew Master Sylvester's temper, after all.

Michael snapped out of his thoughts and replied irritably, "If you have the skills to interrogate a dead person, I'm all ears."

The bodyguard sighed in frustration. Obviously he didn't have that ability. But if things went wrong, their days were numbered. "Michael, what are your orders?"

Michael had been with Sylvester for many years and remained calm and composed in such situations. He had a plan to begin cleaning up this mess. "Enough whining. First, bury the driver properly and appease his family. Provide financial support, and if there are children, ensure their education through university. As for the assassin's body...?"

Michael hesitated. Should they dispose of it like they had their previous adversaries?

At that moment, his phone buzzed. 'Sylvester Gomez' flashed on the screen.

["Try to bring the body back to Pliar."]

At least there would be no more questions regarding what to do with the body. Michael couldn't believe it. He wasn't surprised that this sniper's death would have been predicted by his friend. He'd had years of experience with death. Although he didn't know what Sylvester had in mind, he now had a superior's orders and called out the command. Just as he was about to join Sylvester's vehicle for the journey home, he paused to search the body. Deep in a pocket, he discovered a heavy cellphone, which he pocketed.
