Seeing that there was no one around, Lin Neng silently chanted, "Deactivate the transformation."
He instantly transformed back into himself and swaggered out of the alley.
It was as if what had just happened had nothing to do with him.
...
When Peter fell, all the bodyguards around were stunned.
Peter's body twitched. Because of that, the wound was torn open and enlarged. Blood gushed out and spilled all over the ground.
"What happened!"
His bodyguards roared.
They were all beside him just now and didn't see anything suspicious.
Unless someone invisible came over and stabbed Peter!
In the panic, Peter's men quickly called the ambulance, wanting to rush Peter to the hospital for rescue.
No one cared about Rowling at that moment.
The wine glass in her hand fell to the ground. The red wine spilled into the pool of blood.
Rowling had a glazed look in her eyes. She could not believe the scene in front of her.
She... was saved?
"Seal all the entrances and exits! No one is allowed to leave!" A bodyguard shouted angrily.
The music in the bar had stopped. Everyone stood in their spots in panic.
Peter had just died more than ten seconds ago, and everyone in the bar was suspicious!
Some customers had already secretly called the police.
Some even wanted to take the opportunity to escape, but because of the pistol in Peter's bodyguards' hand, they didn't dare to leave.
...
While the bar was in chaos, Lin Neng walked on the street at ease.
He took out his phone and took a photo of the entire Red Bar.
He opened the internal APP of the Spear of God, entered a specific password, and uploaded the photo.
Lin Neng couldn't capture the specific evidence of the murder.
But the news of Peter's death would soon be acknowledged by the intelligence network of the Spear of God.
The money would be transferred to Lin Neng's account after the verification.
After about ten minutes, a few police cars arrived at the door of the Red Bar.
A group of policemen rushed into the bar with pistols in their hands.
"Everyone, crouch down and put your hands on your head!"
Peter's body was at the edge of stiffening at that moment.
After checking the scene, the police took a few more photos.
A police officer walked up to the body and carefully checked the location of the fatal wound.
"The wound cut off the artery, and he bled to death."
The police officer was silent for a moment.
Judging from the wound, the murder weapon should be small, such as a sharp mini blade or... a needle!
The death was very strange.
"Bring all of them!" The police officer shouted.
The surrounding police officers immediately took action and arrested everyone at the scene.
The police officer looked at the hundreds of people in front of him and frowned.
Experience told him that the murderer was not an ordinary person.
If he guessed correctly... it should be someone from the assassin organization!
Back at the police station, the statements of the people on the scene shocked the police officer. Not a single person had seen the murderer!
It was not the first time the police officer had dealt with an assassin organization.
As a police officer in New York City, Hogg was clear that the assassination of a person like Peter was at most a D-class mission.
Hogg knew that some killers had special abilities.
But, generally, killers with special abilities were at least B-class and above.
It was impossible that they would carry out a D-class mission.
The murder case aroused Hogg's interest. He brought everyone to the police station to be interrogated personally.
Including Peter's men, the customers in the bar, and the waitresses.
After checking them one by one, Hogg turned his investigation to the entire street.
If the people in the bar was not the suspect, then it could only be the suspicious pedestrians on the street.
He pulled out the surveillance video and checked it himself. Hogg carefully investigated every person who passed by the Red Bar.
Finally, he found a suspicious person, Lin Neng!
Lin Neng came to the street that afternoon and drank coffee in the cafe across from the bar. Then, he went to the blind spot of the surveillance camera for fifteen minutes.
What was he doing there?
...
At the same time, Lin Neng's phone received a message.
The message was from the "Spear of God" system. They had verified the information of the deceased's death.
The reason why the information was verified so quickly was that the killer organization had special channels to infiltrate the police's system.
They would soon know who the deceased was.
The money was then transferred into Lin Neng's account.
That was a secret account of the assassin, the kind that the police could not find out.
Lin Neng looked at the account information and confirmed that the money had been transferred. After that, he went to a five-star hotel in Midtown Manhattan and booked a luxurious suite.
He took a comfortable bath.
Wasn't making money meant to be spent?
What was the point of making money if he could not enjoy life?
Lin Neng was very open-minded about such things. He could only feel the joy of life if he spent money.
His action this time also attracted the attention of the "Spear of God.".
As a rookie killer, he had previously carried out two of the lowest-level missions, the kind that only paid tens of thousands of dollars.
This time, he accepted a mission that cost 200,000 dollars. The difficulty was considered high among D-class missions.
And he had completed it within a few hours.
Moreover, the police had yet to find any means that he used to assassinate.
That made the person-in-charge of "Spear of God" think highly of him. They had already noticed Lin Neng.
Killing the target was not difficult.
All the assassins in the world had killed the target if they completed the mission.
However, to be able to complete the mission silently in a crowd without exposing any traces was an ability!
