Chapter 219: Guess Who It Is?

The next day.

On the street.

Two men walked side by side.

The man on the right, wearing a hat, moved his lips slightly.

"The organization received a case yesterday and needs your help."

"What kind of help?"

The man on the left said evenly.

"Last night, a shooting occurred in North City District; the victims were two trusted disciples of the Gym Master of Kuangfeng Martial Arts School, and the killers were members of the Dawn Society."

"The organization wants me to investigate the killer's identity?"

"That's right."

The hat-wearing man glanced around cautiously.

"Last night, Gym Master Xie gave us a deposit of five hundred thousand; if we catch the killer dead, another five hundred thousand; if alive, an additional one million. Find out those two people's identities, you take one third, but there is a condition: you must have evidence that proves the killer's identity."

The man on the left's Adam's apple moved.

This reward is generous enough.

"If I find out and act directly, how much would you pay?"

"No."

The hat man shook his head, "The organization didn't insert you into the Dawn Society easily; don't expose yourself over such a trivial matter. After you discover that person's identity, give us the information, and we will arrange for someone to act."

"Understood."

The man on the left nodded.

"Does the killer have any distinguishing features?"

"Two people, likely a man and a woman. The man held a sniper rifle; indeed, his gunmanship is precise—generally one shot kills a person. The two Kuangfeng Martial Arts School disciples aren't weak either; one is Level Four, the other Level Three, both were headshot twice."

"Sss…"

The man on the left inhaled sharply.

He is Level Six, though.

But if a sniper rifle hits a vital spot with one shot, he would die.

However, speaking of precise gunmanship, a silhouette flashed in his mind.

He calculated that it's about time for him to carry out the mission.

But who is that woman?

There are quite a few women inside the Society.

"So, have you figured out who it is?"

"Hmm, but it still needs further verification."

"Oh, there's another clue: from the bullets at the scene, the killer used two kinds of guns—a Large-caliber Handgun and an M95 sniper rifle. You can use this as a lead to investigate."

The hat man said.

The man on the left suddenly took a deep breath.

"Are you sure those two guns were used by the same person?"

"Sure."

The hat-wearing man said, "That person first used a Handgun to kill the people inside the shop, then deliberately tossed the bodies outside to lure passersby to call the police, drawing in members of Kuangfeng Martial Arts School. Afterwards, using advantageous terrain, he killed them. From the gunmanship, not a single bullet was wasted; it's the same person, no doubt."

"If that's the case, I already know who one of the killers is."

"That fast!"

The hat-wearing man widened his eyes and couldn't help asking, "Who is it?"

"Cang Hai, a newcomer who only joined us a month ago."

"???"

The former wore a skeptical expression, as if saying, "Are you teasing me?"

A newcomer who just joined the Dawn Society, only Level One, how could he kill two Force Warriors two to three levels higher than him?

"He's not an ordinary newcomer."

The man shook his head.

"On his first mission, he used a Large-caliber Handgun to eliminate four or five gunmen; one of them also used a sniper rifle. Though that mission had…"

He widened his eyes at this point. Wait, that woman—could it be...?

"What is it?"

The hat man said anxiously.

"What have you thought of now?"

"Hmm, I thought of the other killer—that is, who the woman is."

The hat man's eyes seemed about to pop out of their sockets.

"Where was I? Oh, about that newcomer's first mission—at that time the Society sent Ye Ying to assist him. The two completed the mission smoothly. I suspect the guns the gunmen carried ended up in their hands. Cang Hai's gunmanship is so strong, he wouldn't discard that sniper rifle, so among the two killers of Kuangfeng Martial Arts School, one is him; the other is most likely Ye Ying."

"Are you serious?" the hat man asked, breathing heavily.

He didn't expect to get the answer so quickly.

"It's almost certain," the man smiled faintly.

"Alright, then do you know their true identities?"

Hearing that, the man retorted, "What do you think?"

He guessed who did it, not a false guess, but uncovering the other party's real identity in reality is difficult.

Except for the higher‑ups, no one inside the society knows each other's true identity, family members, or home address.

Sneaking photos and taking them outside to investigate with official authority sounds good, but it's actually not feasible.

Because Dawn Society had already anticipated this, comparing the photos in a database only yields a string of false data unless a carpet‑style sweep is conducted, and doing that would too easily raise suspicion.

Therefore, the only way to learn a person's true identity is to stalk them; the method is clumsy but highly effective.

Once you locate their address and follow the trail, you quickly learn all the information.

"Alright, keep an eye on them, and after they emerge, tell me their characteristics. I'll have someone follow them; as long as we know their addresses, everything becomes easy. By the way, what are the power levels of those two people?"

"Cang Hai is the one who fires the gun, often comes to headquarters, and is a Second-level Force Warrior. Ye Ying is the Old Man, whose whereabouts are uncertain, and is a Fifth-level Spirit Mind Master."

"Fifth-level Spirit Mind Master."

The hat man's expression hardened, "Looks like we need to raise the price again. No rush; first capture Cang Hai. He's only a Second-level Force Warrior, easy to take."

"Don't be careless; that guy's gunmanship is superb, nearly a hundred percent hit rate, and he also carries a Vajra Talisman on his body."

"What, he also has a Vajra Talisman?"

The hat man, surprised, said, "According to your rules, only Level Three can purchase a Vajra Talisman. How did he get one?"

"He broke the record, jumping from Level One to Second Level, earning a hundred‑thousand‑yuan reward, and took this," the man shrugged.

"Thanks to your tip, we really need to plan carefully. Here's the plan: I'll send someone to watch near your headquarters; when you see him come out, inform them. Stalking him shouldn't be hard—first find out where he lives. As long as we know his true identity, the rest will be easy."

"Alright."

"Remember, be extremely careful and don't get exposed."

……

At the same time.

Inside Dawn Society.

Bing Li looked at the intelligence submitted by his subordinate and nodded silently.

"I was right; this kid truly is a talent."

He also thought that Jiang Cheng would eliminate that Level Three Force Warrior.

Unexpectedly, he even killed the opponent's prized senior disciple, a Level Four Force Warrior.

The sponsor behind the scenes was very satisfied.

He gladly paid the final installment; together with the deposit, it totaled one million.

Of course, of that one million, Jiang Cheng could only receive 20,000 as the mission reward; the same applies to Senior Original Force Warriors— even at Seven-level or Eight-level, completing a mission yields only 70,000 to 80,000 in reward.

"By the way, check how much he has recharged."

Bing Li still harbored an obsession in his heart, even though he knew it was unlikely.

When he opened it, Jiang Cheng's recharge log from last night showed only 400,000.

"It does match the intel; those people never keep more than 500,000 cash in a store. Seems I really overthought it."

Bing Li shook his head.

He then approved the mission completion application launched by Jiang Cheng.
