Under the cover of a pitch-black night, two figures flitted around Water Villa Number One like wraiths, silently scaling the villa's external wall and appearing in an inconspicuous corner within the premises.
If there had been an outsider nearby, they would have noticed that these two people, no matter how they moved, always operated under various shadows, their presence reduced to the lowest, blending with their black ninja uniforms, making it incredibly difficult for even an ordinary person to detect them even when close by.
"Number Six, check the target's location,"
Number Five signaled to Number Six with a hand gesture.
Number Six nodded, took out a miniature telescope from his gear, and carefully surveyed the room through the living room window.
"Not in the living room,"
Number Six shook his head and pointed towards the second-floor bedroom.
Number Five nodded, understanding Number Six's intent. Just as they were about to move, a faint voice came from not far away.
