Chapter 270: 10.11

The shootings between these two mafia groups haven't ended after a while. Many mafia members got injured, and there might be four or five deaths already. All that because of one spicy chicken spy who couldn't do his job correctly.

James Grind got scared when he saw the amount of injured members and deaths that increased as the mafia war continued. He got specifically worried when he saw Huang Shu got the upper hand and surrounded Long Zhen with his men.

It seemed that Huang Shu was well prepared for this assault, and he pointed his gun at Long Zhen, who was cornered. "Surrender now, Master Long Zhen. You are stupid enough to assault me in my base, like a wolf trying to hunt a shark inside the water."

Long Zhen gritted his teeth. Of course, he knew that it was stupid of him. Because there was no way, he could win against Huang Shu in his own base. But when James Grind ran away from him only to be embraced by Huang Shu, Long Zhen got inexplicably triggered.

Long Zhen scoffed as he dropped his gun. He raised his hand and said, "Okay, I give up. I've lost against you. If you want to kill me, this is the best time, Master Huang Shu."

Huang Shu scoffed when he saw his archnemesis was now in his mercy. There was no way Long Zhen would be this stupid to assault him in Huang Mansion except because he got influenced by his own feeling.

Maybe Long Zhen had unknowingly fallen in love with James Grind.

Huang Shu gritted his teeth. He was too slow to grab this cute spy first, and now he had to fight a bloody war to get him.

Huang Shu clicked the trigger and pointed it at Long Zhen's skull. "Any last word?"

[Oh shit! If Huang Shu really going to kill Long Zhen, then we will restart again?! I don't want to go through that gruelling torture of trying to assassinate Long Zhen! Don't you see the amount of ridicule I have to face?]

[Pupa: Indeed. I also don't want to see it. You are so embarrassing.]

[Fine then, let's stop them!]

James Grind suddenly dashed towards Huang Shu and hugged his waist. "M—Master Huang, please don't kill Master Long Zhen!"

Huang Shu stopped moving and glanced at James Grind. "Why? Are you in love with him or something? Darling Grind, you should remember that Long Zhen is a lot more dangerous than he looks. Don't get brainwashed just because he's been nice to you for a moment."

[But you are also dangerous, bro, you are literally the second strongest mafia in this country? What are you talking about here.]

"M—Master Huang, please reconsider. I will do anything as long as you don't shoot him!" James Grind tried to persuade. Huang Shu glared at James Grind, who stiffened after receiving such glare, "I—I just don't want this to be a bigger mess…" James Grind said weakly. 

Huang Shu's hand trembled as he tried to contain himself from killing Long Zhen right here, right now. But when he saw James Grind's pitiful gaze, it made him hesitate because he didn't want James Grind to hate him

'Would he hate me if I really kill Long Zhen here? He is such a softie. I don't want him to be mad at me for killing my enemy.' Huang Shu thought.

After careful consideration, Huang Shu sighed and handed the gun to James Grind. "His life and death is in your hand, but you must promise that you will return with me after, got it?"

"Y—Yes…" James Grind affirmed. Huang Shu smiled and rubbed James Grind's head. He commanded his men to halt and let James Grind determine what would they do next. James Grind stared at Long Zhen with a gun in his hand. He was scared, and his hand trembled.

Long Zhen saw the nervousness in James Grind, and he sighed helplessly. "Don't be too nervous, cute spy. This is the best time for you to assassinate me, don't you want to do it?"

"Y—Yes, this is my mission!" James Grind said. He held the gun with two hands and pointed at Long Zhen's skull. Long Zhen didn't seem to be bothered. He was already accepting whether James Grind would kill him right here right now.

James Grind had cold sweat all over his body. True, by killing Long Zhen, his mission would be completed. But somehow, he felt that something was not right here. Something was missing…

[Pupa, I can sense this world is so weird.]

[What do you mean weird?]

[I have plenty of questions since the very beginning, but you said that you don't have the answer as well.]

[First, you never showed me the world background. All you said was just to kill Long Zhen to complete the Breakmeter and never showed me the world background. I also asked you about this world's love interest, but you said that there is none. You are so shady, Pupa. Is this your trick to punish me again?]

[Pupa:…]

[Wait, is that true?! You went as far as trying to trap me like this?!]

[Pupa: No, as much as I want to do it, I also want you to finish the transmigration as soon as possible. Because you are such a handful host. But there is a reason why I cannot show you the world background.]

[Pupa: This is a special world that has been explicitly tasked to you. There seems to be a particular order from my higher up, which is to make you finish this extra world.]

[What do you mean the extra world? Then what should I do now?]

[Pupa:… Kill Long Zhen now.]

[Huh?]

[Pupa: Kill Long Zhen now, and you will know the true mission. I've been telling you to kill Long Zhen as soon as possible because this world is very unique.]

[But people die when they got killed!]

[Pupa: No shit, sherlock. Just shoot him. Shoot him!]

[Pupa, I'm scared, don't pressure me like this! I might pee my pants if because of your pressure!]

[Pupa: Just do it… DO IT!]

[Okay, okay! I will do it, prepare your restart!]

James grind clicked the trigger again and gulped. He stared at Long Zhen, who was weirdly very calm as if he had been expecting this. "I—I'm sorry, Master Long Zhen. I really don't want to do this, but I have to…"

James Grind pulled the trigger, and the sound of a gunshot broke the silence.

…

Long Zhen had been shot in the dead on the ground. Blood seeped out of his head and pooled on the floor. His lifeless eyes still had a smile on his face.

Yunyu watched in horror and dropped the gun on the floor. He couldn't believe that he really had killed someone in his career as a quick transmigrator. The shock was too much for him to react that he was unresponsive for a while.

However, there was no notification of Breakmeter being completed or such. There was another notification rang from Pupa, though. Which was completely out of Yunyu's prediction.

[Pupa: Ding! Hidden Plot has been triggered, A Transmigrator for a mission.]
