Lie Hu was a man who walked in the shadows, one of the city's recently risen bounty hunters, and also the most successful and reliable. Many of the disputes in the shady deals had his involvement. Over the span of just a few months, he completed forty-three assignments without a single failure.
But Lie Hu was also a man of principles; he had his three "do not kill" rules. He didn't kill the old, weak, sick, or disabled; he didn't kill widows or orphans; and he didn't kill heroes and warriors. Violating any of these principles was a deal-breaker, no matter how much money was offered, and pestering him could even result in him killing the contractor. He wasn't mysterious; anyone could call him, but no one had ever seen his real face. Like a legend alive in the night, he was gloomy, deep-voiced, and enigmatic.
Li Feng dialed Lie Hu through a number provided by Dongfang Qingguan, getting straight to the point, "Help me kill someone."
"Who?"
