Chapter 1444 - B-Grade Assassination Completed Successfully (1/2)
At this point, Si Yiyan stood by the windows waiting for the result of that B-grade assassination which commenced five days earlier. He had specified a duration of five days for the mission then—today was the deadline.
Si Yiyan was wearing a pale grey blouse.
It was a color slightly darker than white, slightly lighter than black, duller than silver, and colder than red. It was a subtlely beautiful color in between black and white with a tinge of harshness.
Pale grey was a highly confident color. It wasn’t the main color and was usually used as the background. In this world, there were simply too many people who were fit for black or white, but few were fit for such a pale grey color.
Pale grey was a color that wasn’t as simple and pure as black or white, not as cold as black, yet not as innocent as white, but was subtlely gorgeous and elegant!
It existed between the boundaries of black and white, flourishing, just like human nature—ever-changing and unpredictable, like the grey in between heaven and earth when they first parted. It was a color that was stagnant yet mysterious.
It contained even more potential energy than black!
Wen Xinya had once said that the color which suited Si Yiyan the most was pale grey.
When Si Yiyan wore pale grey, he was majestic—as though he had control over the entire world.
And this pale grey shirt was also the first shirt that Wen Xinya had handmade for him.
Footsteps were heard from outside. Gu Yuehan pushed the door open, entered, and walked up to Si Yiyan respectfully. “The B-grade mission to assassinate Xia Ruya has been completed successfully. Details will be presented shortly.”
Old Mr. Mo was critically ill and all suspicions pointed to Xia Ruya. He knew that the Ninth Young Master wouldn’t let Xia Ruya off.
Disregarding the relationship with Sis-in-law, merely based on the Ninth Young Master’s respect for Old Mr. Mo, if Xia Ruya dared to plot against Old Mr. Mo, she would have to bear the consequences of her actions.
And the assassination this time was rather simple. The assassin had made use of Xia Ruya and Jiang Ruoyin’s previous trip to the Pearl Mall to tweak Xia Ruya’s car. He acted very skilfully and, under normal circumstances, even professional vehicle mechanics might not even be able to detect it.
However, when the car was pushed to its limits in terms of capabilities and speed, something would go wrong—for example, the brakes would fail and oil would leak. Hence, he had used psychological tactics, making Xia Ruya frightened, uneasy, and panic on her own. He had hidden in a villa in the suburbs, waiting for Xia Ruya to go out today to tailgate her and do her in.
Such a method escaped detection. Even if the police investigated after the incident, they could only ultimately detect that something was wrong with the car’s capability, and this incident would finally only be concluded as an accident.
“That’s great!” Si Yiyan said plainly.
The B-grade mission to assassinate Xia Ruya had gone even more smoothly than he’d expected.
The major missions under Jiayuan were classified as S, A, B, and C grades. C-grade was the lowest and there were already extremely few missions above grade A. Most missions were grade C.
B-grade missions were the most special among all the missions.
