Chapter 55: Evil Breeds Courage

Just as Rulu was pondering how to infiltrate the villa, he noticed a young man in a white hat and loose white chef's clothing appearing in the distance, slowly pushing a small cart toward the villa.

“Hey, it looks like this person is going into that house; I can use this to my advantage,” Rulu thought as he observed the young man in white.

A few minutes later, the young man, still wearing a white hat and chef's uniform, and with a white mask covering his face, arrived at the villa's entrance with the meal cart. A guard at the door immediately shouted at him in a fierce tone, “Why are you so late delivering the food? Governor Su and General Feihu have been waiting for a long time. Do you want to starve them?”

The young man in white replied hoarsely, “I’m sorry, it took a bit longer to prepare the ingredients.”

The guard, impatient, said, “Alright, just hand everything over to me; I’ll take it inside.”

The young man hesitated, saying, “But General Feihu said I must deliver it to them personally.”

“What? I didn’t hear anything about that!” the guard replied in surprise.

The young man in white stared into the guard's eyes and said, “Think again; maybe General Feihu told you, and you forgot.”

“Oh, I remember now; that is indeed the case.” The guard seemed to recall something and walked to the villa's entrance, opening the door. He turned back to the young man, saying, “General Feihu and the governor are on the second floor. You hand the food to them and come right back out, understood?”

“Understood,” the young man replied quietly, pushing the cart into the villa.

Once inside, Rulu quickly scanned his surroundings. After confirming that no one was nearby, he pushed the cart to a hidden corner of the villa, removed his white coat and hat, and put on a white smiling face mask. This young man was actually Rulu, who had disguised himself as the delivery person. The real delivery person had been knocked unconscious by Rulu and was hidden in the bushes outside the villa.

Rulu ascended the stairs in the hall to the second floor, cautiously navigating the corridor, trying to locate Governor Su and General Feihu. The second floor, like the first, was empty, without a single person in sight. Suddenly, he heard a male voice coming from a half-open room: “General Feihu, have you gathered any information about that assassin?”

The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident.

Upon hearing this voice, Rulu's spirit lifted, as he recognized it belonged to Governor Su. To avoid alerting them, Rulu did not approach the room recklessly but instead hid behind a wall some distance away, patiently waiting.

“Governor, there’s still no concrete information about the assassin, but I have dispatched more personnel to investigate. I believe we will soon have accurate intel,” a deep voice said, which Rulu recognized as General Feihu's.

Governor Su's voice replied, “General Feihu, I remember you said the same thing a few days ago, but after all this time, why is there still no information? Are you even taking this matter seriously?”

“Governor, I have been doing my utmost to investigate, but that assassin is too cunning, always hiding and not showing himself. That’s why there is no news. However, it’s alright; in five days, we will execute those captured members of the rebel organization. At that time, the assassin will surely take action, and we will be able to find and capture him.”

“I hope so. If that assassin isn’t caught soon, I won’t be able to sleep peacefully. If something like last time happens again, your position as general will be over, hmph,” Governor Su said ominously.

“I understand, Governor. I have already strengthened the defenses around the house; that assassin definitely cannot get in. You can rest assured.”

“Good, you can leave now; I need to prepare for rest.”

“Yes, I will be in the room next door to you, Governor. If anything happens, just press the alarm button, and I will arrive immediately.”

After that, a door on the second floor opened, and a bald, muscular man in uniform walked out, casually closing the door behind him as he entered another room next door.

“Alright, the opportunity has come. This time, I won’t give you any chance to survive like last time,” Rulu thought with a cold smile as he took out a handgun, attached a silencer, and quietly approached the door to Governor Su's room. Grasping the doorknob, he gently turned it. With a soft creak, the door slowly opened.

“The door isn't even locked; you're doomed now!” Rulu felt immense joy in his heart. He pushed the door open and swiftly slipped into the room. Inside the spacious and bright room, he saw a person lying on a large bed covered with a blanket. Since he had just heard Governor Su's voice, he assumed the person on the bed was the governor. He immediately raised his gun and fired at the person lying on the bed.

With several soft “puff” sounds, the person on the bed was hit by bullets, and the blanket developed several holes. However, Rulu found it strange that the person, despite being shot, remained motionless on the bed, making no sound, and there was no blood where the bullets had struck.

“What’s going on? That person on the bed doesn’t seem to be Governor Su,” Rulu felt something was off. He waved his hand, summoning a gust of wind that blew the blanket off the bed, revealing a wooden dummy underneath. Near the dummy was a small black box, which was flashing a red light. As the blanket was lifted, the flashing frequency of the red light rapidly increased.

“Oh no, it’s a trap!” Rulu suddenly realized. He quickly left the room, and just as he stepped out the door, there was a loud bang. The black box on the bed exploded violently, sending a shockwave bursting through the door and propelling Rulu back seven or eight meters, knocking him to the ground.
