Chapter 337 - If Doing Things in the Open Doesn’t Work, Then Do Things in the Dark (1/2)

Actually, after assassinating the last target, Zhang Che was nearly caught by the Miyazaki Clan’s experts.

If he hadn’t transformed into a child at the crucial moment and walked out of an alley with an innocuous smile, it would have been a one-way trip for him.

“As expected of a first-rate large clan of Japan. Such reaction speed is really something! Looks like continuing the operation will be too risky.”

That night, Zhang Che hid in a forest outside of Rejing, his face filled with regret.

He had only managed to kill three of them. Although this would draw the Miyazaki Clan’s attention, it was still a little lacking for them to abandon their hunt for him.

-Mmm, for mom’s and my safety, I have to continue causing trouble!

-Cause trouble! More trouble!

-I can’t not cause trouble. Otherwise, will I have to keep living in fear?

-That won’t do. I have to think of a win-win solution!-

The sky gradually turned even darker. Zhang Che hid in the forest, on top of a tree with thick branches. He laid out his sleeping bag and went to rest.

He still had to continue his operation tomorrow. He had to make sure he had enough rest.

That night, an undercurrent was stirring in Rejing. The Miyazaki Clan captured many suspicious foreigners, but after their careful investigations and interrogations, they discovered none of them were involved in the assassination during the day.

Those three assassins seemed to have truly appeared out of nowhere, then vanished into thin air, not leaving any traces.

The Miyazaki Clan were helpless. They could only reinforce their protection of their descendants and important members in the dark. While ensuring their safety, they were also hoping to nab the assassins if they dared to make another move.

However, the next day was a peaceful one. Nothing happened at all.

To be more accurate, nothing happened on Japanese soil.

As per his discussion with Miyazaki Takehara, Miyazaki Musashi would set off for Hua Xia in two days. If this first-rate expert of the Miyazaki Clan were to take action, he would surely cut down the Chinese brat who had challenged their Miyazaki Clan’s authority.

However, that night, the Miyazaki Clan received a piece of news from the Bei Mei region that shocked all the top brass of the clan, thoroughly disrupting Takehara and Musashi’s original plan.

——

That day, after surveying a few locations, Zhang Che had no choice but to abandon the operation.

Every time he got close to areas where the Miyazaki Clan’s descendants or important members were, he would sense several extremely powerful auras hidden in the dark through the golden vortex. Although he was pretty confident in escaping safely after completing the assassination, he didn’t dare take the risk in the end.

Of course it’d be great if he could kill a few more Miyazaki Clan members, but there was no need to put himself in danger.

Zhang Che was someone who cherished his life very much. He didn’t wish to dance on the edge of a blade.

As such, he endured it for now. At the same time, he started thinking, to see if there were any other ways to throw the Miyazaki Clan into disorder.

After all, killing only three of their members wasn’t enough to shift their attention.

For the sake of his and his close ones’ safety, Zhang Che couldn’t afford to go easy at all!

That morning, a few members of the Miyazaki Clan crossed the spatial gateway to the northwest of Rejing under the secret protection of some experts, to go train themselves.

They didn’t notice that a pair of eyes were following them until they stepped through the spatial gateway.

At noon, Zhang Che returned to Rejing airport and took a sky shuttle flight to Bei Mei region’s San Diego.
