When I chose to become a killer, I already forgot about it.
In Xinde City, I am somewhat famous.
Therefore, many people are willing to hire me.
This time is no exception.
Moreover, two "big jobs" came at the same time.
One was to assassinate a psychiatrist named Hannibal, seemingly because the other party knew some terrible news and therefore needed to be eliminated.
One was to kill a pastry chef named Guichelle, who must have offended some important person.
The rewards for both tasks are quite generous.
However, the difficulty of the two goals is different.
The former is a guy with a wide network of connections and has established a charitable foundation.
Once such a guy dies, it will definitely cause an uproar in Xinde City. The newspapers chasing sales will definitely report it repeatedly, and the police will definitely dig into this matter under public opinion.
For a killer like him, this is quite disadvantageous.
But who is he?
He is the 'box'.
He is a well-known killer in Xinde City.
What he pursues is to go further.
What he needs is fame.
Only by going through many difficulties can we complete this step.
therefore……
He chose the female pastry chef, Guichelle.
After checking the locations continuously, he was ready to take action as soon as the 'Watch Dog Pastry House' opened today.
However, continuous shooting and explosions prevented his actions.
Looking at the police officers blocking the scene, he had no intention of giving up.
Or rather...
He thought he could successfully kill the female pastry chef and then leave safely.
As long as there are no gunshots.
Same thing with a knife.
He had arranged his identity: a butler of an upper class person.
You need to hold a banquet at home and hire a pastry chef temporarily.
This reason is enough.
After his investigation, he found that the 'Watch Dog Pastry House' has such a business and has visited the homes of high-class people more than once. This is the best excuse to use.
But why is the homeless man still here?
It seems that the other party was cleaning the shop here in the morning.
Trade labor for food?
What a pity.
You didn't have to die.
But, who made you unlucky?
‘Box’ felt regretful, but didn’t even look at Jason.
He maintained the attitude of a butler in an upper-class household and said to the female pastry chef in a serious manner:
"Our family needs a party."
"You are famous as a pastry chef."
“And more than one family recommended it to us.”
"So, my husband hopes that you can come and take care of the pastry part of the banquet."
After saying that, the killer bowed in a decent manner.
"is that so?"
The female pastry chef looked embarrassed, but still refused:
"terribly sorry."
"Some accidents happened here recently."
"I can no longer prepare cakes for banquets."
"I'm so sorry."
The female pastry chef apologized repeatedly and bowed slightly.
And, in order to make up for her apology, the female pastry chef began to turn around and pack some clean pastries.
Everything went as I expected!
‘Box’ smiled from the bottom of his heart.
After several days of observation, he discovered a very good habit of the female pastry chef. When she was unable to help and needed to express her apology, she would give her some pastries.
This time is no exception.
Looking at the female pastry chef walking over, the killer was making final preparations.
Three steps.
Two steps.
step.
"These pastries are for..."
The female pastry chef spoke, keeping a smile on her face, and shook her right sleeve.
A dagger suddenly appeared in his hand.
Holding the dagger in her right hand, the 'box' stabbed directly into the female pastry chef's neck.
In the killer's mind, he wanted to kill the female pastry chef with one blow, then pull out his dagger and throw it at the homeless man.
The female pastry chef was frightened by the sudden scene.
The paper bag containing the pastries fell from his hand.
However, a big hand signed the paper bag and caught it, just like grabbing the hand holding the dagger.
Then?
Jason held the paper bag containing pastries in one hand, picked up the killer in front of him with the other, and smashed it heavily on the solid floor.
Bang!
The killer fell heavily to the ground, his eyes turned white and he fainted.
Jason kicked the killer's neck again, and then said to the frightened female pastry chef:
"Call the police."
"Oh, oh, okay."
The female pastry chef nodded blankly and walked out of the shop with staggering steps.
Facing death, brushing against death.
This feeling is completely different from when watching.
When the dagger stabbed her, she thought she was dead.
Fortunately, fortunately...
The female pastry chef turned around subconsciously.
She saw Jason carefully placing the paper bag containing the pastries on the counter that had just been sorted out.
This gentle gesture, for some reason, became so attractive to the female pastry chef.
I was still a little hesitant before, wondering whether I should speak, but at this moment, I suddenly became determined.
Putting the pastries on the counter and checking them carefully, he found that two of the puffs were still rotten. Jason turned around silently and gave the killer another kick on his neck.
Then, he pulled up a chair in the shop, sat next to the killer, and looked at him.
Jason began to sort out the things that happened from the park in the middle of the street to the present that could be directly related to the female pastry chef——
1. The gangster I met in the morning came for pastries and had malicious intentions.
2. The intruders encountered before did not really harm Gichel. They were probably looking for something or preparing to interrogate Gichel about something.
3. The guy in front of me came here to kill Gichel.
There is a contrasting relationship between 1 and 3.
The two are essentially the same, but their methods are completely different.
1 is very childish, and it is a small fight, while 3 is straightforward.
As for 2?
Jason began to look around the entire store.
"Is there anything worth looking for here?"
There is no doubt that there is none in the shop on the first floor.
Go to the second floor?
Jason wouldn't go up there without the pastry chef's permission.
Female pastry chefs are not the enemy.
It didn't cause him any trouble.
Delicious pastries were also made.
Facing such people, Jason is willing to abide by his bottom line.
Moreover, he believed that Edward, who took the 'intruder' away, should be able to know more.
And Edward?
The other party should be back soon.
In fact, Edward came back faster than Jason expected.
Edward, who was still driving alone, opened the door and got out of the car after the car stopped, and walked towards the 'Watch Dog Pastry House'.
Walking into the store, he looked at Jason sitting there and then at the killer who fell there. Edward frowned unconsciously. After confirming that the killer was just unconscious, Edward's brows relaxed.
But when he looked at Jason, his face looked a little strange.
