Bing is a very smart man. He knows what to do and when to do it. This is our first mission. Yes, the first mission will definitely be to kill people. Later, I slowly understood why Bing asked me how I felt about him. Because he was afraid that we would not be able to break through our psychological defenses. However, he seemed to have forgotten that for us, he had already embarked on this road of no return. And what qualifications do we have to hold him back?
——Angel of Annihilation Ling
The next morning, I left the organization with my children. The mission I took was a low-level mission designed for newcomers to practice. It was to go to a small town in Kyoto and kill a wealthy businessman hiding there. The briefing said that this wealthy businessman used his own financial resources to forcefully marry a commoner's daughter. Later, her parents objected, but she was killed by the wealthy businessman's bodyguards by mistake. The woman who was forcibly married was also abandoned by the wealthy businessman after he got tired of her. Only a fortune was left, and the woman used this fortune to buy the life of the wealthy businessman. Although the reward was not high, the organization secretly took on this mission. Because the rich businessman's industry was targeted by the organization, and they were going to send people to rob it. So there was such an assassination mission.
Driving the car assigned to me by the organization, I took the children to Kyoto. The children, who had not left the base for several years, were curious about everything and seemed to have long forgotten the mission.
"Hey, Bing, look, the fields here are so beautiful! The lake over there is so beautiful too!" Ling was in a good mood looking at the endless terraced fields. He hadn't seen the outside world for more than three years since he came to the organization at the age of seven. How could the feeling of wanting to shout out loud without being restrained be described in just a few words?
"Haha, I'll have more opportunities to take you out in the future." I said with a smile while driving. "As long as you can complete the training I give you, your life will be much easier in the future."
"Yeah! I can definitely finish it!" Ling turned around and said excitedly. Taiyi and Mary, who were sitting in the back seat, didn't say anything, but when I looked through the rearview mirror and saw their eager eyes, I naturally understood what they were thinking.
It was already evening when we arrived at our destination. I parked the car in a forest outside the town. Then I took the children into the town. We found an ordinary hotel and stayed there. The owner of the hotel was an old man in his seventies. Although he was surprised to see four children at once, the room was reserved by adults in advance, so he naturally didn't say anything. With my excuses, the old man put aside his worries and vigilance and happily took us in.
At night, the children enjoyed the hot tea made by the innkeeper and sat around the stove listening to the old man telling stories. As if to make up for their childhood, the three children listened very carefully. It was not until the early morning that the innkeeper left our room with a smile. After the old man left, the children also woke up from the beauty of the story, because they knew that now they would become cold-blooded killers in the organization again.
"Bing, what should we do?" Ling was the first to get into the state.
"You don't actually have to do anything tonight. I need to go out and scout the area." I whispered to Ling. "This is your first mission, so you are not familiar with scouting. I will first get to know the situation in this town, and then take you step by step to familiarize yourself with the mission process."
"Then...what about us?"
"Just go to sleep." I smiled. "Your task tonight is to help me keep an eye on the innkeeper. If he finds out that I'm not here, you have to make up a reasonable excuse to fool him. Just like I fooled him today. Of course, you can also choose another method, which is to kill him directly if you arouse his suspicion!" As I spoke, my tone was already a little cold.
"But..." Mary hesitated. Just now, this enthusiastic old man was sitting with them and telling them interesting stories. But now...
"So, if you want him to live, don't get him involved." I saw through Mary's thoughts. "Although our identities are special, we also have some things we do and some things we don't do. How a mission will develop depends entirely on your thoughts." After leaving these words to the children, I climbed out of the hotel window and disappeared into the night.

The next day, before dawn, I returned to the hotel. The children seemed to be still asleep at this moment, and the only sound in the room was their even breathing. This should be a quiet night. If the old man really asked them at night, they would probably have to struggle mentally.
I wanted to sleep without disturbing the children, but not long after I got into bed, I felt my quilt being lifted. Then a delicate and soft body squeezed in. I knew it was Ling without thinking.
"Huh? Not asleep yet?" In the darkness, I couldn't help but whisper as I felt Ling, who was wearing pajamas, squeeze into my bed.
"I fell asleep, and woke up when you came back." Ling giggled and squeezed into my arms again. "Hehe, Shirley would be so jealous if she knew."
"You little girl." I smiled helplessly. I pulled the quilt tighter again. Thinking about it, it seemed that this was the first time Ling had the opportunity to sleep with me alone. I couldn't spoil her nature. Let her lie here for a while. But I really wanted to sleep. I was a little tired after a sleepless night.
"Bing...if that old man really comes in tonight, will you really let us kill him?" Ling seemed to sense my sleepiness and wanted to ask this question before I fell asleep. "If you can use your own thinking to make up a lie to lure him back, then you don't have to kill him." I explained to Ling in my arms. "Our mission is to target the target and complete it without being discovered by anyone. During this period, no matter the method, form, or means, any assassination method you can think of can be used."
"So, as long as we use the right means and methods, we can kill the target without hurting other people?" The person who spoke was not Ling, but Mary, who was sleeping not far away.
"Um... So you're awake too." I was surprised to hear the voice next to me. I thought the kids were asleep. It seems they were very light sleepers. That's right, it's inevitable that Ren would be nervous for the first time. "Taichi too..?"
"Yeah. Awake."
"Haha, in that case, push the bed over here, I'll tell you briefly." Seeing that the three children were awake, I dispelled my sleepiness and waved my hand to call the children over. Soon, the three beds were put together. Then I used a bracket to prop up two of the four quilts, creating a space and being able to do simple sound insulation. The other two beds were covered on the body. Ling in my arms was naturally covered with the same bed as me, and Taiyi and Mary had been together for three years, so they had nothing to be embarrassed about sleeping in the same quilt. What's more, there was no light in the room, and we created this small space, which made the children quite enjoy the feeling of being squeezed together.
"Continue what I said above." I said in a voice that several people could hear in the bed. "For a killer, a pistol is just one of the tools to kill people, but not the only one. You know, guns are regulated. And when using guns, it will make a loud noise, which will make us the target of public criticism."
"So, Brother Bing asked us to learn chemistry from Sister Shirley just to let us know about chemical toxins?"
"Yes. It is undeniable that in this peaceful city, poison can be considered the best way to kill people. As long as the method is appropriate, people's lives can be harvested without anyone noticing. Although I don't like this method, I have to say that this is the most efficient way of assassination."
"Is there any other method besides this?" Taiyi asked.
"Yes, for example, there is a method I know of. It is called accidental death."
"Accidental Death?"
"Yes, to put it bluntly, we have to create an accident and let the target die in the accident. But accidental death is not that simple. In order to make the target look like an accidental death, we have to do a lot of preliminary preparations, from collecting information about the target, to understanding the target's habits, finding clues from them, and then blending into the environment the target comes into contact with, creating accidents. Finally, we can escape. Without attracting anyone's attention, we can also look for opportunities to kill the target with the help of others. Although this assassination method is time-consuming, it can reduce the suspicion rate to a minimum. It may not even be discovered. There is no need to hide from the electronic eyes everywhere in the city. It is a very safe method. The only disadvantage is that the time required is unstable. The time rhythm cannot be controlled."
"Bing, do we have to learn all these?" Ling poked her head out from under the quilt and looked at me.
"Yes. You have to learn all these things, as do Taichi and Mary. But you can specialize in the use of poison and accidental death, and Ling, you must master all of them, because you are not only an assassin, but also a warrior. I want you to be able to complete every mission in the safest way and with the highest efficiency."
"Well, I understand." After saying that, Ling once again squeezed into my arms. She closed her eyes with a sweet smile. It seemed that compared to the knowledge I explained to her, she enjoyed the feeling of having me all to herself more.
"Hoo... Go to sleep. After you get up today, go around and act like a tourist. The starting point is this hotel, and the focus is the hotel where the target is. But remember one thing, that is, no matter where you go, you must record the location of the electronic eyes you see while walking. And at the same time, be careful not to do anything that arouses suspicion. Do you understand?"
"Yes."
"Yes."
"Yes."
