Wang: "Hey, can you assign the killing today?"
Killing Machine: "Deal. Who is your target?"
Wang: "His name is Liu Yang. He's a student in my class. His classroom is class 5c of the school Nimbus Hail."
KM: "Wait, wasn't Nimbus Hail the school that lost the national competi-"
Wang: "SHUT YOUR MOUTH UP."
KM: "Oops, sorry. Anyways, where should I kill him?"
Wang: "At his house. I sent a link of his address to you already."
KM: "Ok, got it. Anything else that you would like to add?"
Wang: "If you kill all the spectators off without anyone suspecting me, I'll give you an extra 500$. If you die, I'll give you nothing. If you reveal that I hired you, I'll report to your superior right away."
KM: "Fine."

For just a single person, especially for a runt like Liu Yang, the assassination process was unusually complex and had a load of unnecessary safety procedures. But that was all done because of the precarious situation that Teacher Wang would find himself in if he got exposed as the mastermind behind the killings. After all, just a couple days ago Wang had suffered a blow to his reputation by losing a national competition that they were almost guaranteed to beat. That competition had already brought to question the legitimacy of Wang's method of teaching. If he was found to have killed one of his own students... He couldn't even imagine the impact. That's why he had to take all means necessary to conceal his connection with Killing Machine.
The final plan that Wang decided upon was so ingenious, he couldn't help but marvel at his own plan.
The first step was to lure Wang to use an alternate door. If Wang used the front door, he would be captured by his fellow students. And while normally Wang liked to see Liu get captured by his classmates to get beaten, he also knew that Liu's classmates at most would let Liu off with a couple thrashes to the neck. None of Liu's classmates even had the notion of killing Liu; After all, there was no need to go that extreme. And if the other pupils of class 5c caught Teacher Wang killing a fellow student out in the open, that would be a shame worse than death to Mr. Wang.
Fortunately, it seemed that Liu actually wanted to use the back door today. In order to prevent Liu from getting suspicious of him, Teacher Wang decided to pretend to order Liu to go through the front door. The ploy worked perfectly, causing Liu to further strengthen his resolve to escape via the back door.

Meanwhile, Killing Machine was lounging in a house across the street from Liu's house. His mission was simple. When Liu arrives, kill him on sight. After complementing for a while, Killing Machine decided on daggers. Modern assassins almost never used daggers, opting for the secrecy of a sniper rifle instead. That's what made it so appealing to Killing Machine. As an added bonus, Killing Machine's ability was related to daggers.
The most important thing, according to his client, was to not let everyone know that Killing Machine was an assassin. That's why he was wearing a disguise to conceal his identity. Most people could instantly recognize Killing Machine and tell that he was going for an assassination if KM was holding a weapon. Most of the time, that didn't matter, since everyone didn't dare to disturb Killing Machine. However, this time was different. Unlike his usual targets of other criminals, politicians, and cheating husbands, there was only two groups of people who could possibly want to kill Liu, a nobody in this world. Teacher Wang and his students. If people realized that the killing of Liu was an assassination, then all the blame would be put squarely on Teacher Wang.
His solution? To make it seem that the killing was meant for revenge. So instead of using range, he would get up close. Instead of running away the minute the killings were done, he would run right up to the dead Liu to grab the thrown daggers from the body. Since most of these actions were things that no hitman would ever consider doing, nobody would suspect that Killing Machine was hired by somebody else.
To relieve his boredom, Killing Machine decided to take a look around his new house. After lounging around for a bit, he noticed something new. Picking it up to look at it, it was a plastic box that contained some unidentified electronics inside. After staring at it for a bit, he determined that the item was probably something the previous owner had left behind. After all, if the item was meant to hinder him, he could always destroy it.

Looking at his smartphone, Liu Yang listened to the audio being played. Stopping to catch his breath, Liu smiled when he heard the recording. Everything was going to plan.
