388: Pan Han's Little Secret
The number one figure of the largest assassin group on Blue Star was actually targeted for assassination!
Is there any justice? Is there any law?
In less than half an hour, the entire Knight Order from top to bottom knew about this.
A precision instrument that had existed for five hundred years was instantly activated!
They had the people, the money, and the experience!
Countless assassins seemed to be activated instantly; they might be beggars, delivery workers, restaurant waiters, or even government officials in various countries in their daily lives.
In a small building not far from Pan Han's residence, the Bodyguard Captain sat in command, forming an investigation team.
The Three Elders commanded remotely, coordinating all resources.
Pan Han was smoking in the small building, his mood gradually calming down.
Ellie was guarding the door; she looked like a leopard now.
She had originally thought that she might gradually distance herself from killing from then on.
Unexpectedly, danger was actually right beside her.
Once you step into the world of assassins, wanting to quit is harder than ascending to heaven.
At this moment, Pan Han's phone rang; it was a call from Guo Jing.
"Hello, Old Guo."
"Are you okay?" On the other end of the line, one could clearly hear that Guo Jing was quite nervous.
"Don't worry. This little scene can't stump me." Pan Han recalled the slaughter in the apocalypse; today's danger was not worth mentioning.
"I'll give you a clue: the killer's family was kidnapped, forcing him to assassinate you."
"You found out so quickly?"
"Don't overestimate the Knight Order, and don't underestimate the state apparatus."
"Okay, what else?"
"The person who sent him came from the Sakura Country's Yamaguchi-gumi. We don't have more specific information yet. We are still investigating."
"Okay. Understood. Thank the Chief and the comrades for me," Pan Han said, exceptionally calm.
"No problem. Stay safe! Don't act rashly; things might not be that simple." Guo Jing frowned; due to his job, he instinctively felt something was wrong.
"I won't go to the Myanmar Northern Region; I'm taking a team to your home area now. It's better to be safe."
"Okay." After saying that, Pan Han hung up the phone.
"Yamaguchi-gumi!" He muttered this name, which was truly familiar.
According to the Knight Order's records, two hundred years ago, the Yamaguchi-gumi was the Sakura Country branch of the Knight Order.
Later, due to differences in philosophy, they gradually broke away from the Knight Order's control, and later they developed and grew on their own.
Pan Han handed this clue to the Elder Committee and the Bodyguard Captain, letting them follow the vine to find the melon.
In recent decades, the Knight Order had established a foothold in Sakura Country, taking root and sprouting again; their power could absolutely not be underestimated.
Investigating some clues should be manageable.
Time passed second by second, and the atmosphere in the entire Myanmar Northern Region was tense to the extreme.
At nightfall, the curfew began.
The roads, which were previously bustling with traffic and flowing with people, were now desolate, with only armed soldiers patrolling the streets.
"Ellie, order some food." Pan Han rubbed his stomach; he suddenly wanted to eat rice noodles, the kind with lots of chili.
"Yes, boss." Ellie nodded and went out.
Twenty minutes later, two large bowls of rice noodles, a plate of fried fish, a portion of fried chicken, a portion of fruit salad, two bottles of drinks, and two bottles of beer were delivered into the small building.
"Come, let's eat."
The two didn't talk much and started eating directly.
"Boss, over at your family's place, more than 40 elite brothers have been dispatched to protect them in shifts." Ellie opened a bottle of beer and handed it to Pan Han.
"Good." Pan Han drank half the bottle in one gulp.
"Should we move everyone to a safe place?"
"No need. Guo Jing and the others have also sent people. Besides, they waited until I went abroad to make a move, probably because they have some reservations about acting domestically. It shouldn't be a big problem."
"Understood, boss. Thank you for today." Ellie just remembered she hadn't thanked Pan Han, so she quickly added that.
"You're welcome. Who else could I be but your boss?" Pan Han said with a smile.
Suddenly, Ellie threw her chopsticks on the table and threw herself into Pan Han's arms.
"Hey! What's wrong!" Pan Han was also caught off guard by her sudden emotion.
Ellie didn't speak; she just held him like that, motionless.
Pan Han put down his chopsticks and gently stroked her hair.
Emotions are a strange thing; when they get intense, even the King of Heaven cannot stop them.
Since joining the Knight Order a few years ago, Ellie had never had feelings for anyone.
At this moment, she was very afraid, afraid of losing Pan Han.
The two embraced, remaining silent for a long time.
Pan Han just held her like that, feeling her body temperature, heartbeat, and that little head full of wild thoughts.
He lifted Ellie's face; she was already streaming with tears.
Pan Han gently wiped away the hot tears and kissed her.
"Alright, it's okay! I am the strongest; they won't succeed easily," Pan Han said softly.
"I'm just scared."
"You are a beautiful assassin, have you forgotten?" Pan Han scraped her straight nose bridge, his eyes full of tenderness.
"I don't care, I'm just scared!" After speaking, Ellie buried her head in Pan Han's arms again.
"If you don't cry, I can tell you a little secret of mine."
"I can stop crying!" Ellie wiped her tears, sat up, and looked at him with red eyes.
"Look at you, being all gossipy."
"I just want to know more about you."
"Okay. Actually, I used to be very afraid of watching the sunset."
Pan Han pointed outside the window, where the sunlight could still be vaguely seen.
"The sunset? What's there to be afraid of about it?" Ellie didn't understand what he meant.
"I don't know, I'm just afraid. I shiver when I see it."
"That's so strange. Are you still afraid now?"
"No, I'm not."
"Why?"
"I don't know, maybe I was too idle before. The 'me' inside my body doesn't want to waste life."
"Then in the future, I will watch the sunset with you." Ellie finally showed a smile, her eyes full of anticipation.
If you are lucky enough to meet a girl who is willing to watch the sunset with you, remember to cherish her.
Pan Han had another girl in the apocalypse who was also willing.
"Thank you." Pan Han took a deep breath and said solemnly.
"Hehe, you're welcome!"
"Let's keep eating? Otherwise, the noodles will get soggy."
So the two continued to eat.
Outside, things were in an uproar, but in the small building, the two were quietly eating noodles.
...
Eagle Country, a military base command center.
Colonel Chris looked at the real-time images transmitted back by the satellite, smoking cigarette after cigarette.
In the center of the screen was the small building where Pan Han was located.
After dozens of days of investigation, he had basically determined that that person was the new leader of the Knight Order.
He had spent countless manpower and energy, digging for information from every detail, and looking for intelligence from every link.
Finally, a key figure appeared in his field of vision.
That was Guo Jing.
The deceased Old Mr. Guo was his uncle.
And Guo Jing had once been an undercover agent in the Knight Order.
The new leader of the Knight Order had turned the Myanmar Northern Region upside down again.
Most importantly, the methods this new leader displayed in the Myanmar Northern Region were incredible.
"You clean up your own people, that's none of my business. But you actually killed Old William too. Do you really think our Eagle Country is easy to bully?" Colonel Chris suddenly snapped a pencil and said fiercely.
