A Helper?

Case 1: The Young Lady's Assassination

It was unknown who screamed but one thing is for sure – the ‘woman’ in the middle of the group of men was unscathed, not even a scratch on ‘her’ fair and smooth skin nor a speck of dust on her high-end clothes provided by ‘her’ (his) ‘cousin’ (client), Suzuki Mio.

What was said of it is unknown who screamed, it is because the four ‘bodyguards’ who were left and unscathed earlier is now screaming and agonizing in pain when their limbs were cut by something unknown. It happened in a flash and they couldn’t react. The only thing they know half a second later is that their hand/leg were cut and their body part fell on the ground the same time their body fell when they lost their balance due to missing their cut limbs. They are now crawling in the ground that’s bathed in fresh blood, their eyes full of hate as they looked at that beautiful face yet the owner is vile of heart. They didn’t realize that their heart is made of charcoal. They only know of their pain, but not of other’s. As long as they were paid, they can take any life. Yet they fear that their life be taken away from them.

The ‘woman’ doesn’t have a time to waste ‘her’ words to these people to lecture them. ‘She’ has to follow Suzuki Mio. Thus, ‘she’ walked away and ignored the four still breathing people but half away from their death. The clack sound of ‘her’ heels against the cemented ground on ‘her’ every step is like a death bell ringing in the heart of the four men on the ground.

‘She’ walked towards the car and heard a soft music coming from inside the tinted car. A smile crossed on ‘her’ angelic face, but has an evil thought in ‘her’ demon heart. “Hey. Unlock the door.” ‘she’ said in a man’s voice as ‘she’ knocked.

“Oh. You done?” the muffled voice of the driver come from inside the car.

“Yeah.” ‘she’ answered, still in a man’s voice and reached the doorknob.

“Ah? Wait – “ the muffled voice of the driver that now becoming clear can be heard. “Wasn’t it you who said there is no need to lock the car’s doors - ?” the driver said, confusion in his voice as he heard the door opened. However, immediately gone the confusion and was replaced by horror when he saw the ‘woman’ who opened the door and smiled at him as his voice that fell now rose again. “ – you’re alive!” he exclaimed in horror as his hands moved to start the car, probably to escape.

He just realized it was death that knocked on his doors and he gladly opened the doors for it.

“SUZUKI HAREEEEEE!” the driver screamed when he saw something glistened after he looked at the mirror to see what the ‘woman’ is the doing. The next thing he knew, something caught his neck and the next second it tightened on his neck until he almost asphyxiates.

Well, ‘almost’, since – schlick. The driver’s head with his eyes wide in horror fell on the backseat’s floor. Bright red blood dyed the floor, like spider lilies blooming blanketing the Underworld. The headless body in the driver’s seat fell down on its own, dyeing the driver’s seat and the front seat. The next second, a rustic and fishy odor filled the car.

He immediately opened the doors to air out the blood’s odor. He fanned himself and sighed as he rolled the strings in his long and slender fingers like jade. Soon, blood dripped in his hand, but it was not from his hand but from the strings that was still wet from the assassins’ blood.

“How long shall I wait here…?” he muttered and blew out air as he looked at the corpses in the ground, then the students’ building not far from where he was. He took out his phone and dialed on the keypad. “Hello. Is this ToCooCoo? I want to rent a car. Yes. The latest and brand new model. I’ll send you a tab to send the payment for the rental. I’m in – “

After half an hour and the ‘woman’ disappeared from the back gate of the school after she hailed on a black car – similar to the one that all the doors were open and has a fishy and rustic odor left in the parking lot near the mini forest inside the school.

From the forest, a man taller than the ‘woman’ emerged and walked towards the parking lot. He took out a gun that has a silencer installed and aimed it at the assassin who has a faint breath. Soon, the faint breath was extinguished like a dying flame of the candle in the middle of the desert.

“We always keep our school – from ground to the atmosphere, clean.” The man said.

Dozens of men in black clothes appeared with different tools used for ‘cleaning up’ appeared behind the man who wore a cold face but still strikingly handsome with his jet-black hair and ink-like eyes.

“Yes, Master.” They answered and respectfully bowed as they waited for the man to leave to start the ‘clean up’.

The man barely raised his hand and a shining turquoise car appeared and stopped before him. Another man in black appeared and opened the car’s door. When the man and the car left did the men in black moved and swiftly did the ‘clean up’. One of them went inside the car and took out a box. Then, he poured oil on the black car that was left and threw a fire. Soon, the black car that was slowly eaten by the fire.

They opened the box and saw the bomb inside. It was set to start as soon as it left (while inside the car) the school and should explode after a certain distance was reached and kill the passengers in the car where it was placed.

They saw the device to trigger the bomb planted in the school’s back gate, and immediately destroyed the dangerous devices. They immediately destroyed the ‘sleeping’ bomb in their hands even if the timer still hasn’t started.

XXX National Road.

I hummed as I breathed in the fresh air mixed with the salty air. The left side of the highway is the dense forest while on the right side you can see the view of the stretched white sand shore and the endless blue-green sea in the distance. And there was a black dot not far away.

It should be that island. The 8th Beach Resort is now near. Only a turn at the intersection ahead and you will reach the road leading to the resort.

However, I didn’t expect there would be a disturbance. There’s an accident on the intersection.
