Chapter 159: Prisoner

Luo Chen casually threw the woman to the ground. The three of them looked disheveled, completely different from how they looked when they first appeared.
“Cough cough…”
The woman, who had long stopped breathing, finally recovered a little. She lay on the ground, and the hat that had been covering her face finally slipped off.
When Luo Chen saw her face, he was indeed stunned.
He really did not expect such a ruthless woman to be a young woman in her early twenties.
Moreover, she had a beautiful face. If she changed her clothes and appeared in other places, it would not feel strange to say that she was a university student who had yet to graduate.
The woman’s face was pale, and her lips were bloodless. She looked a little pitiful.
Any man who saw such a woman would inevitably be soft-hearted.
Except for Luo Chen.
Because he could tell at a glance that the woman’s attitude was definitely fake.
The fall of the hat was intentional.
For a professional assassin, anything could be used as a weapon, including their appearance.
“Why are you looking at me like that? If you still want to keep your organization a secret, then none of you can leave alive.”
Luo Chen sneered. Although he said that, his gaze never left the woman.
In any case, it was already like this. It would be a waste not to look.
The woman’s lips trembled. She did not expect Luo Chen to be able to say such resolute words.
“We… we all have our normal identities. If we disappear, you’ll definitely be in a lot of trouble.”
After a long silence, the woman finally said this.
It seemed like a threat, but in fact, there was no other way.
She did not expect that a mission that did not seem difficult to complete would cause the three of them to die here.
Just by looking at Luo Chen’s appearance and experience, it was impossible to imagine that a rich second-generation heir who looked like he could not carry anyone on his shoulders would be so powerful.
Now, she regrets it very much. There were actually a few small groups fighting for this contract and the woman had spent a lot of effort to get it.
Yet, they ended up with such an outcome.
Ever since they started this line of work, they had already disregarded life and death.
However, this was the first time she had encountered such a difficult choice. It was only then did the woman realize how terrifying the threat of death was.
In the past, she felt that she was not afraid of death at all because she had never encountered a situation where she had to face death.
Now, if she was given another chance, it was impossible for her to touch this mission again.
“It’s getting late. I still have something to do tomorrow. If you still don’t say anything, I can only let you die silently.
So what if you have normal identities? Could it be that before you come out to do a mission, you’ll tell your family and friends what you’re going to do?
Besides, our social relations should be completely unrelated, right?
No matter what, it’s impossible to trace it back to me.”
Luo Chen lowered his voice and said word by word, his voice even mixed with a smile.
However, when these words landed in the woman’s ears, they were like the whispers of a demon, making her shudder.
Looking at Luo Chen again, her eyes were filled with fear.
He was clearly just a young man who looked about her age. How could he have such a terrifying gaze!
It was as if they were being targeted by a demon!
“I really don’t know anything… Do you think we’ll be told anything about the organization?”
After a long time, the woman finally seemed to have given up. She lowered her head and said in a low voice.
The voice was so soft that if Luo Chen was not close enough, he would not have heard it clearly.
“In other words, you’re no longer of any use to me.”
When Luo Chen heard this, he straightened his back, and only boundless coldness was left on his face.
“Other than this, 1 can promise you anything else. 1 only ask you to let my two brothers live. I’m willing to be your captive.”
At this moment, the woman seemed to have finally figured something out and mustered her courage to look up.
That delicate face coupled with some tears made her look extremely pitiable.
If it were any other man in Luo Chen’s position, his mind would probably be disturbed by her.
However, there were many scenes in Luo Chen’s mind about the original novel’s tragic endings because of a harem.
Moreover, although this woman was acting pitiful now, if she was really given a chance, she would probably kill him without hesitation.
At this moment, it was already late at night, and there were indeed few people coming to this place.
If he really dealt with this woman and her two brothers, they would probably not be discovered for half a month.
But…
Luo Chen pursed his lips and hesitated.
Although he usually taught those who obstructed his plans a lesson, he had never really hurt anyone.
This was a living person, not a mosquito or a cockroach. As a person who had never even killed a chicken in this life or his previous life, asking him to deal with these three living people…
The psychological pressure was not easy to withstand.
After hesitating again and again, facing the woman’s expectant gaze, Luo Chen suddenly slashed!
It was so fast that the woman had no chance to react.
Right on the heels of that, he strode forward and knocked out the two men together, neatly lining them up in the car.
Then, he stepped on the accelerator.
Before he could turn the corner, a passing car drove past.
Such a situation made Luo Chen break out in a cold sweat.
Fortunately, he hesitated for a moment just now and did not kill them directly. Otherwise, he would have been seen by others.
There were indeed things that could not be done.
As soon as Pandora’s box was opened, it could never be closed again.
He returned to the manor.
When the butler saw Luo Chen stop the car and pull out three living people, he was really shocked!
“Young Master… that… this…”
The butler stammered for a long time, but he could not say a complete sentence.
“What? Find a place to lock them up and let someone keep an eye on them. We can’t give them a chance to contact the outside world.”
Luo Chen was not in a good mood to begin with, so he immediately said with a dark expression.
The butler was filled with questions, but Luo Chen clearly had no intention of explaining.
After hesitating again and again, the butler locked the three of them in the basement and secretly called Luo Zhenhua.
The call went through. Luo Zhenhua was already resting, but when he received such a call, he instantly jumped up from the bed.
Without thinking, he drove straight to Luo Chen’s manor.
It did not matter if he brought a few people back and locked them up.. What Luo Zhenhua was concerned about was whether Luo Chen had cleaned up the loose ends properly!
