After dealing with the pursuers, all the warriors on the armored vehicle dismounted and surrounded the two armored vehicles, because Zhang Jie knew very well that there was still a team of mercenaries inside, even if they were hired to rescue Shen Guanghua.
The few people inside the vehicle naturally knew what the situation was, so they opened the door, extended one hand to show they posed no danger, then extended the other hand, and stepped out.
After everyone had dismounted,
two warriors boarded the vehicle to inspect it, and only came down after confirming it was safe.
Shen Guanghua stood to the side, repeatedly thanking Ross and the others. Although they were working for money, he had personally experienced the dangers along the way and naturally knew how difficult it had been.
After some discussion, the group re-entered the armored vehicle. This time, the peacekeeping force personally escorted them to the embassy.
Upon arriving at the embassy, all transfers were completed. The couple who had requested the Sacrifice Squad's services excitedly embraced Shen Guanghua, who was also quite emotional at the time.
Although none of them recounted the dangers of the process to the clients, those present were not blind. Through the wear and tear on the armored vehicle and the pockmarked bullet holes, they knew just how great the risks had been along the way.
Fortunately, everything was over, and the Sacrifice Squad's mission was completely accomplished. After bidding farewell to the clients, the seven embarked on their journey home.
"Phew~"
Upon returning to Concord, the group once again dispersed, each receiving another 300,000 US dollars.
Earning 500,000 US dollars from two missions was incredibly satisfying for Zhang Jie.
He found the largest Hilton International Hotel in the area, checked in, and then drew a full bathtub of water to soak in comfortably.
While bathing, he reviewed some issues from recent missions. Unconsciously, Zhang Jie's professional skills were improving, and his marksmanship was gradually stabilizing.
Especially the Libya mission this time, there were almost no major mistakes, although he was shot in the back, thanks to his bulletproof vest.
Even now, it was still subtly aching, a patch of bruising.
Splash~
He stood up from the bathtub. In the bathroom light, Zhang Jie's body was covered in various scars. Although they had healed, the scars remained.
Grabbing a bath towel, he casually dried himself, wrapped the towel around his lower body, then picked up the Smith & Wesson MP9 placed by the bathtub and walked out of the bathroom.
The moment he stepped out of the bathroom door, Zhang Jie instantly tensed up, his gun pointing directly forward.
"Who?!"
At that moment, on the sofa in the living room, sat a woman in a full blue dress. She had her legs crossed, her right foot gently swaying, and held a glass of red wine, a third full.
She was facing away from Zhang Jie. Only after hearing his voice did she slowly turn her head.
"How is it that after gaining some renown in the underground world, you no longer recognize me?" Her voice was warm and soft.
Zhang Jie reached out and turned on the living room lights. Instantly, the entire living room brightened. It was then that Zhang Jie clearly saw the woman sitting there.
She had golden hair and an extremely indifferent expression on her face.
This was a woman who looked like Amber Heard, but her entire demeanor, though seemingly relaxed and lazy, actually gave Zhang Jie a strange sense of threat.
At this moment, some fragmented memories suddenly flooded Zhang Jie's mind.
He had seen this woman before, but not in the apartment, rather outside the apartment, when she was arguing with Old Lady Schneider.
Before Zhang Jie could fully recover, the woman directly stood up and slowly walked over to him, looking at Zhang Jie's physique, which wasn't extremely muscular but at least well-balanced.
"You've been training quite well." Then, the woman extended her hand, "Anna, the Old Lady's second granddaughter."
Zhang Jie suddenly realized, so she really was the Old Lady's granddaughter? And the second granddaughter. The eldest granddaughter Max, the second granddaughter Anna, the youngest granddaughter Hanna, and Simmons in between.
Goodness, the Old Lady's family influence was indeed strong; none of them were simple individuals.
"Don't tell me you have a mission for me." Zhang Jie's mouth twitched, realizing something.
The woman looked at Zhang Jie's expression and suddenly laughed, "Don't worry, I don't have a mission for you. I just happened to be in the vicinity and wanted to see the tenant the Old Lady has taken in for so many years."
She casually drained the wine in her glass, then walked towards the door.
After opening the door, she smiled slightly at Zhang Jie, "Well, since you've decided to enter the assassin profession, then do it well."
After speaking, she left directly, even closing the door behind her, which was surprisingly polite.
Zhang Jie immediately locked the door, then sat on the sofa, his MP9 still in his hand.
He couldn't quite figure out how this woman got in, and what he understood even less was why she came to see him.
Was there some deeper meaning?
Anyway, ever since he recalled the Old Lady's identity, he wasn't curious about the identities of these granddaughters at all.
Just Max, the eldest granddaughter, with her identity as an Ouroboros assassin, was enough to give him a headache.
Simmons' ranking was unknown, but from her skills, she was certainly not bad, being a female assassin known as the Fox in the Brotherhood after all.
As for the youngest granddaughter Hanna, Zhang Jie didn't think she was just an ordinary nurse. In his opinion, that nurse was probably just a pretext to mislead people, just like Max was superficially a legal professional.
After waiting for a while and finding no abnormalities, Zhang Jie finally breathed a sigh of relief. He immediately changed his clothes and went to the front desk to check out.
As he took out his room card to check out, he realized he had left his car keys in the room. He had no choice but to return upstairs. When he approached his room, he found the door already open.
Alert, he immediately stepped back two paces, pulled out his MP9, and then screwed on the suppressor.
He cautiously approached the door, listened for a while, found no one inside, then poked his head in to observe.
He saw a man inside, acting suspiciously.
Zhang Jie immediately entered, pointing his gun at the back of the man's head, while simultaneously closing the door with his right foot.
The door slowly closed, making a click sound.
The man was startled and immediately turned around, only to find a dark muzzle pointing at him.
"Hehehe, I have no ill intentions, don't shoot." The man immediately raised his hands and looked at Zhang Jie.
But Zhang Jie saw clearly that the man was wearing black gloves on his hands.
"Who sent you?" Zhang Jie didn't believe he had merely stumbled in here by mistake.
"Listen, put down the gun now and leave here, I can pretend I didn't notice anything." The man said, his hands still moving restlessly.
Seeing that his words had no effect, the man's expression changed, "You're the one who lives in this…"
Pfft!
A faint gunshot, accompanied by a blood spot on the man's forehead and a blossoming of blood from the back of his head.
"You don't look like a good person, who wants to listen to you babble?"
Zhang Jie walked to the bed and picked up his car keys.
He glanced at the corpse on the floor and felt that it was troublesome and tricky. Killing someone in a hotel was not a good thing.
He thought for a moment, took out his phone, and found the three numbers Hanna had given him earlier.
Then he typed in "Cleaner," and three names popped up on the screen:
William, Nick, and Jack.
Without much thought, Zhang Jie's finger tapped on William's name.
