Chapter 657: Chapter 657
Lin Chen slapped Milly's bottom again. "What's the deal with the Assassin APP?"
"I, I don't know?" Milly felt a surge of humiliation at this moment.
To be an assassin and yet to be spanked for interrogation by her target was like a nightmare.
Lin Chen snorted coldly, unsure whether she was telling the truth, "Do you believe that I would strip you naked and tie you up in the forest? At night, all sorts of poisonous insects and snakes will crawl all over you..."
Milly's face changed drastically upon hearing this, but she still pursed her lips and refused to speak.
Seeing that the hard approach wasn't working, Lin Chen immediately switched to a softer tactic.
"Miss Assassin, look, the Assassin APP should be public software. Even if you don't tell me, I can download it online. So telling me isn't really betraying your organization. At most, it's sharing some resources! Just speak up, and I will let you go."
After hearing Lin Chen's words, Milly pondered for a moment. Lin Chen seemed to make sense.
"So if I tell you, you will let me go?" Lin Chen nodded.
"Absolutely, I always keep my word," Lin Chen said with a smile.
Only then did Milly speak, "The Assassin APP is our internal software for assassins. Once registered, assassins can download it directly from the website. We use this app to place orders and bid for them, pretty much like a ride-hailing app."
"Damn, so now assassins are getting tech-savvy?"
Lin Chen was speechless upon hearing Milly's explanation.
At that moment, Lin Chen finally let Milly go. "All right, I can let you go now."
Seeing that Lin Chen really let her go, Milly was momentarily stunned. "Are you really letting me go? I will seek revenge. Since I accepted your job, I will definitely try to complete it."
Lin Chen was speechless again. "Don't worry, if I say I will let you go, then I will. You should leave quickly, or I might change my mind, and that would be very bad for you."
Milly gritted her teeth. "Fine, since you've let me go this time, I will give you three more days of life. After three days, I will come to kill you."
With that, Milly turned and disappeared into the night.
Watching the bizarre female assassin, Lin Chen chuckled internally. "Who the hell recruited her into the assassin circle? She's so heartless."
Lin Chen's wrist flipped, and he now had a pink phone in his hand.
The phone, of course, was pilfered from Milly.
Lin Chen returned to his room and began to study the Assassin APP.
Turning on the phone, he saw a skull icon on the desktop, and upon clicking it, indeed, an assassin interface appeared.
What left Lin Chen speechless was that this girl had a folder specially placed on the desktop for her account and password, seemingly she didn't have a great memory.
After logging into the Assassin APP system, several reward postings appeared. All users could see these postings to accept or bid on them.
The content inside was diverse, all offering various rewards from employers.
Just then, Lin Chen spotted Qima's name.
Qima, Chief of the Manchester Police Department, the reward amount one million.
Almost the moment this message appeared, the order was snagged by someone.
Lin Chen glanced at the name of the person who took the order, called Lone Wolf, who ranked 18th on the assassin leaderboard with a record of 128 assassinations all successful.
"Damn, this kid's pretty strong!"
Lin Chen didn't have time to think further and immediately called Qima.
"Qima, where are you?" Lin Chen asked urgently.
Qima answered, "I'm on my way to a Western restaurant, about to meet with an informant."
Hearing this, Lin Chen's eyes narrowed slightly. "Which Western restaurant? Can I join you?"
"But the informant only asked me to go alone!" Qima said.
"Stop arguing, you might be in danger, I'll protect you from the shadows," Lin Chen said anxiously.
"Romantic Western Restaurant, 10:30 PM," Qima said.
"Okay, I've got it." Lin Chen hurriedly hung up the phone and ran downstairs.
As soon as he reached the lobby, he saw a beautiful woman, looking furious, about to ring the doorbell.
Lin Chen took one look and realized it was the assassin he had just been talking about.
"Miss, can I help you?" Lin Chen forced a smile.
Milly held out her hand and snorted coldly, "My phone."
Lin Chen scratched his head, "Oh, you had just left when I saw a phone on the ground; here, I was just about to return it to you."
Milly took the phone and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Remember, I will come to kill you in three days," Milly said with a cold look in her eyes.
Lin Chen laughed, thinking it funny how assassins are supposed to surprise you, not announce it in advance. Considering this beautiful assassin's intelligence, he simply smiled lightly and said, "Sure, I look forward to your attempt."
"Hmph, are you looking down on me?" Milly's face suddenly changed.
"Of course not, I admire you for daring to be an assassin with your intelligence, but after tonight, your ranking should go up by one," Lin Chen chuckled.
Just then, there were footsteps in the living room. Seeing someone coming, Milly quickly disappeared.
Watching the shadow disappear in the distance, Lin Chen laughed, "This beauty's movement technique is really quite fast."
At that moment, Xu Jiayi walked over from behind Lin Chen, "Who were you just talking to?"
Lin Chen smiled faintly, "Just a friend. Hey, can I borrow your car? I've got some things to handle."
"Going out to flirt this late?" Xu Jiayi said displeasedly.
"Sister, can't you think more positively? I'm going to save someone," Lin Chen said exasperatedly.
Xu Jiayi tossed the car keys to Lin Chen, checking the time, there was still a little over twenty minutes left until the appointed time.
Lin Chen couldn't delay and bid farewell to Xu Jiayi, driving straight to the Romantic Western Restaurant.
By then, Qima was already seated inside the restaurant, and the contact had not yet arrived.
Lin Chen sat in another corner, signaling to Qima with a glance.
Time ticked away by the second, but the informant didn't show, and the assassin still hadn't appeared. Finally, the clock struck 10:30 PM.
Suddenly, all the lights in the Western restaurant went out.
Lin Chen's eyes hardened, knowing the other party was about to make a move.
Indeed, in the dark, a figure flashed into the restaurant, quickly heading towards Qima's sitting position.
His movements were crisp and efficient, and in the darkness, no one realized someone had come in.
Qima's face changed, realizing she had been tricked.
However, she wasn't worried because she knew Lin Chen was right beside her, protecting her.
For some reason, whenever Lin Chen was there, Qima felt incredibly safe; Lin Chen was like a mountain, always giving her a sense of reliability.
The Lone Wolf came straight to Qima, his eyes sparkling with a cold light. He was just about to pull the trigger when he sensed a fierce wind coming from behind him.
His face suddenly changed, and he quickly turned around, aiming his gun behind him and pulling the trigger.
