Jin watched the dot indicating his market as a series of plans came up in his mind. He rejected quite a few of them and finally decided to enact one which felt the most convenient to him, the one which attracted the least attention.
"It's decided then," Jin said with a sigh and set an alarm on his phone for noon. Since he was not hungry now he decided to wait for noon.
It was a good chance to experience how sleeping on such a luxurious bed felt. He placed his phone at a distance from him on the pet table.
The AC was already running so he just covered himself in the blanket and snuggled himself in.
"Hah, so comfortable!" Jin sighed and tried to sleep. Since he had exercised in the morning it didn't take long for him and a few moments later he was long asleep.
12:30 PM
Beep Beep...Beep Beep...
The alarm rang and woke Jin up. He stood up from the bed and stretched his body a bit before going to the washroom to wash his face.
He adjusted the few wrinkles that were on his clothes and finally finding himself presentable he left the bathroom and walked towards the main door.
Jin soon exited the hotel. First, it was part of his plan and second, the food at the hotel's restaurant was expensive af.
After having a tasty and economical meal Jin soon returned to the hotel.
The receptionist was still the same lady, he walked towards her while scratching the back of his head and said with an embarrassed expression, "Uhmm...The thing is I forgot my keycard...I only remembered about it now..."
"I understand sir, Let me call someone to help you with that," The woman said with an understanding smile and called someone from the room service.
A man soon arrived and guided Jin to his room. He pulled out a keycard from the back pocket of his trousers and placed it on the door scanner. The door was opened.
"If you need anything else Sir, you can call me anytime on the phone, the number is 02." The man said.
"Alright, I'll keep that in mind. Thank you so much," Jin thanked the man for helping him out and soon entered the room.
Jin had aimed to confirm a few things this afternoon and he had successfully done it.
He was checking this time as to whether the room service personnel always had a master keycard with them or not. From the looks of it, they do.
'That makes things easier' He thought to himself. The rest was just a waiting game for Jin.
Jin opened up the map function. Mr George was roaming in the city. It would be odd if he just sat pent up in a room so Jin didn't find that concerning. When the night comes he would have to return to rest anyway.
By late evening the target returned to the hotel as predicted. He spent around an hour in the hotel's restaurant before proceeding to his room.
At half past eleven, Jin dialled the 02 through the landline.
"Yes sir, How may I help you?" A voice from the other side asked.
"My room's AC's remote is not working...I think the batteries died. Can you help me with this?" Jin asked.
"Sure sir, someone will be there within 10 minutes," The [erson said.
"Alright," Jin put down the phone.
He waited in his room. When it was close to six minutes he heard a knock on his door.
"Coming," Jin walked towards the door and opened it up.
"Sir, I heard your AC's remote's not working," The man asked. Coincidentally, he was the same one whom he met in the afternoon.
"Oh you look exhausted compared to when I last saw you," Jin made a surprised expression.
"Do I? Haha, Just too much work today," The man laughed it off.
Jin guided him to the room and handed him the remote. The man tried to switch on the AC but it didn't turn on. Jin had already removed its batteries.
He was about to open the remote's back cover when Jin's index finger landed on the man's neck and he slumped to the ground. Jin had pressed one of the man's very delicate pressure points.
It was very difficult to pinpoint this area but when one can do so, the blood to the brain is immediately cut off for a couple of seconds and the person in question loses consciousness.
It was one of the moves he had learnt from teachings from Kalaripayattu which he gained. (A/N: Since Kalaripayattu is not very widely known I'm using that to my advantage. As to whether such a move exists or not. I have no idea)
Jin bent down and took out the keycard from the man's trousers. He then changed his appearance. Jin's hair turned brown and his skin shade turned lighter. With this appearance, he exited the room.
It was close to midnight now. From the movements of the target, which Jin has been observing from time to time, he is fast asleep.
He was soon outside room number 24. Jin looked around him a bit and swiped the keycard. The door unlocked. Jin slowly opened the door and made his way in.
He noticed the sleeping figure on the bed and turned around to close the door as gently as possible. When the door closed the light inside the room once again dimmed but the nightlight was sufficient for Jin to look around the room.
Jin didn't want to use a knife. He was not in the mood to deal with blood on his clothes. He walked his way towards the sleeping figure. Just as the mission panel said, the target was 59 years old. He looked frail and weak.
'What's the point of killing someone like him?' Jin thought as he reached for a pillow. With a pillow now in his hand he looked at the old man for a few more seconds.
'I'm sorry old man,' Jin pressed the pillow over the man's face. The old man soon realized that something was wrong and started struggling with his legs.
Jin jumped on the bed and with his body right on top of the old man pressed his face with all his body weight. The man struggled, his arms and legs flailed in several directions.
Jin kept his calm and pressed the pillow over his face with all his might. He could hear the man's muffled voice that was probably asking for help...Jin remained unaffected.
He stayed in that position for more than 3 minutes before the old man's body stopped showing all signs of resistance...he was dead.
