My Perfect Female CEO-Chapter 876: Casting a Long Line to Catch a Big Fish

Chapter 876: Casting a Long Line to Catch a Big Fish

Four assassins from the Netherworld Organization slid down from the third floor of the hotel along ropes. In the dim light, they made little noise. Without prior precautions, the four assassins could easily have escaped the hotel’s dangerous area silently in no time.

Unfortunately, the involvement of Qiu Wen left the assassins with nowhere to hide.

In the darkness, Lone Wolf and Qiu Wen watched the shadows of the four assassins with a hint of ruthlessness in their eyes.

Lone Wolf gave Qiu Wen a meaningful look and thought to himself, "I really can’t figure out how that woman’s mind works. Just as she analyzed, the perpetrators didn’t play by the rules, avoiding the corridors as much as possible and choosing to escape cunningly through another route. If we hadn’t understood this point, they could have truly gotten away."

This was a fact he had to admit.

Even though he had ordered hundreds to conduct a comprehensive search and interception in the hotel, the place was too big, and the incident occurred so suddenly that he couldn’t have detailed arrangements, only doing his best.

In fact, there were guards in the area where Lone Wolf and Qiu Wen were, but their forces were relatively weak. After they devised a plan, they withdrew the visible guards, leaving a dozen people hidden in secret corners. Lone Wolf ordered them sternly not to act rashly regardless of the situation.

In such a vast area, a dozen people were not much of a consideration.

The perpetrators inside the hotel had chosen to escape from the weakest guarded place, further proving that there were accomplices outside the hotel ready to assist, so precautions were necessary.

"Each of us should target one assassin, ambush them, severely injure them, and entangle the wounded assassin, forcing the other two to flee for their lives. Finally, cast a long line to catch a big fish," Qiu Wen suggested.

"Are you capable?" Lone Wolf had doubts, not knowing Qiu Wen’s level of ability, he was uneasy.

He naturally understood that Qiu Wen’s ambush wasn’t meant to kill, but to severely wound the assassins so that they would have to split up. Creating an illusion that they weren’t too strong yet couldn’t be defeated by the assassins was a significant challenge. Therefore, Lone Wolf wasn’t confident in Qiu Wen’s abilities, worried that any mistake could ruin everything.

Not to mention ambush; even in a straightforward confrontation, Lone Wolf could easily take out four assassins on his own.

But the current issue was sending the assassins back to their hideout without arousing suspicion, so accurate discernment was necessary.

"Just don’t be a drag," Qiu Wen replied irritably.

Lone Wolf didn’t say more, only prayed in his heart, "I hope your abilities match your intellect. Otherwise, if we fail and arouse the assassins’ suspicions, everything is in vain."

When the four assassins were about to touch the ground, they suddenly leaped and spun 360 degrees mid-air. They sensed danger from behind and had to make an emergency response. As assassins living on the edge, anything less than this level of alertness would be inadequate.

The four moved asynchronously but maintained composure, searching for targets and ready to counterattack.

The four assassins were unaware that this was the intended outcome of Lone Wolf and Qiu Wen’s deliberate exposure.

"Bang bang!" Two dull thuds sounded. Although the assassins were on guard, Lone Wolf and Qiu Wen’s effort to feign an ambush still kicked two assassins away. Both used their feet as ambush tools, and the two who were kicked didn’t suffer much injury.

"Not good, we’re exposed." The two unassaulted assassins felt a jolt in their hearts, but upon seeing only two people around, they relaxed. As long as they weren’t surrounded, they didn’t consider themselves exposed.

"We’ll hold them off; you two, get out of here," decided the two immediately. They knew that even if the four of them attacked together, defeating Qiu Wen and Lone Wolf wouldn’t be easy. If this drew others’ attention, it could jeopardize Black Fox. They knew they’d be the ones sacrificed but were undeterred.

The two ambushed assassins exchanged a glance and fled into the distance.

"You can’t escape. Be smart and surrender, and the Tang Family will leave you a whole corpse," Lone Wolf threatened, showing hesitation when preparing to chase, indicating a fear of the four assassins.

Qiu Wen cooperated strongly as well.

"Your opponents are us." The two remaining assassins didn’t give Lone Wolf and Qiu Wen time to consider, attacking them directly.

Thus, Qiu Wen and Lone Wolf engaged in fierce combat with the two assassins, back and forth locked in an intense struggle.

It seemed they were evenly matched, with neither side able to gain the upper hand.

"Something’s wrong. Why is the response so slow from the Tang Family forces around us? Has the Tang Family declined? That’s impossible. Why haven’t they come out to surround us yet?" These two assassins were puzzled, not understanding why. They subconsciously felt things weren’t simple.

Soon, the two fleeing assassins were taken by Black Fox, and with the growl of a car engine and dim lights, they sped away.

"You have no further use; die now." Seeing the opportunity, Lone Wolf’s killing intent surged. He punched one assassin’s head, killing him with a spray of blood.

Just as Lone Wolf was about to assist Qiu Wen, he was stunned to find Qiu Wen’s fist landing on the assassin’s neck with a crack of bones, leaving the assassin limp and dead.

Both assassins died, unconvinced.

"We were evenly matched, so why did they suddenly become so strong? Human Body Limit experts, they must be! What are they doing?" Confusion flickered again in the assassins’ minds, even in death.

They no longer had time to ponder the cause.

"Why is her strength so strange? She can kill an assassin easily; could she be no weaker than me in terms of ability?" Lone Wolf thought, increasingly astonished as he looked at Qiu Wen, finding this discovery unsettling.

"Are you a Human Body Limit expert?" Lone Wolf couldn’t help but ask curiously.

Qiu Wen smiled noncommittally without answering, instead saying, "The hidden enemies have surfaced, won’t they escape?"

"This is the Tang Family’s territory; no troublemaker will meet a good end." Lone Wolf held back his curiosity and answered affirmatively.

"That’s good." Qiu Wen nodded slightly.
