"You can stay here and wait to die," the first assassin said to the fourth assassin. "I'm out."
"So am I," the second assassin said quickly.
"We're aborting this mission," the third assassin said. "At worst, our chief will throw us out of the organisation – but I'd rather be unemployed and alive than stupidly die here."
"I think I'll leave the organisation anyway," the second assassin murmured. "The chief couldn't have been ignorant about what he was sending us into…"
The first assassin nodded thoughtfully. "You may be right."
"What do we do with him?" the third assassin asked, pointing the fourth assassin. "He's Minister Naja's younger brother, and he doesn't want to abort this mission…"
The fourth assassin backed away slowly. "Don't be impulsive," he said seriously. "Do you think the chief will let us go just like that if we abort the mission and run now? Do you think the royals will let us go scot-free?"
