With a light âplunkâ sound, a more than an inch long blade, instantly plunged into the manâs temple, sending a spray of blood. As the blood splattered on Sarah Woodâs face, even through the screen, Finn Lewis could feel a change in her aura.
âOlivia Thatcher, scan the object in Sarah Woodâs hand,â Finn called out with a gravity in his voice.
âItâs a specially crafted weapon disguised as a pen, made from a unique alloy.â Even though there was only one micro unmanned reconnaissance drone on the scene, it could still scan the specific composition of the object in her hand.
Finn Lewis nodded. Sarah Woodâs attack style had changed drastically. The women proficient in martial arts, who could fended off four menâs attacks at the beginning, had turned completely into a terrifying woman after she killed a man. Her techniques were completely changed from her initial style.
Each strike was deadly now, targeting the vital points of the human body, leaving no room for escape. After killing the first man, Sarah Wood rushed directly at the man who was attacking Kay Lee.
âLewis the elder has arrived.â Oliviaâs voice caused the scene on the windshield to split in two. Finn saw where Lewis the elder had appeared, at the sniperâs location, hidden several hundred meters away. Lewis the elder showed no mercy, attacking the sniper even before the latter had a chance to react. From a distance of about fifteen meters, he jumped directly at the sniper, strangling him instantly. With a twist of his hand, he snapped the manâs neck.
After eliminating the most dangerous sniper, Lewis the elder picked up his firearm and aimed at the scene, âTell Lewis the elder to keep one alive,â Finn hurriedly said.
At Finnâs words, Lewis the elder on the screen threw down his gun and rushed into the battlefield. But observing the situation over there, Finn Lewis knew that as long as the sniper was eliminated, even if Lewis the elder did not appear, there wouldnât be any major problems. Because Sarah Wood had already taken down three men, and obviously, she was holding back against the last one.
âHow much longer till we get there?â Now that the situation on-site was under control, Finn let out a slight sigh of relief and asked.
âFive minutes.â Olivia gave an answer.
Finn nodded and focused on driving. With Lewis the elder present, unless heavy weapons were used, Finn believed that even a special forces squad wouldnât be able to beat him.
Less than four minutes later, Finn arrived on scene. Spotting his arrival, Sarah Wood seemed to hesitate momentarily, but her face remained expressionless. Finn didnât say anything and went straight to Kay Lee. Kay Lee, who had been hiding in an irrigation ditch, was obviously frightened. Upon seeing Finn, she threw herself into his arms and burst into tears.
âItâs okay now, itâs okay,â Finn pulled her into his arms, patting her shoulder and whispering reassurances.
Seeing Sarah Wood approaching, Finn gestured for her to stop. He could see Sarah hesitating, before she stopped in her tracks. As he continued to comfort Kay Lee, he also mulled over Sarah Woodâs true identity. By now, even a fool like him could tell there was something off about Sarah Wood. If she was good at hand-to-hand combat, Finn could ascribe it to her upbringing in a military family.
However, a woman who could ruthlessly and efficiently kill three men without so much as a blink, aimed at lethal parts of human body, could not have just been trained. Finn refused to believe it. Furthermore, a woman who could kill without showing any emotion and retain her composure after the act, couldnât possibly be an ordinary woman.
Finn bent over to pick up Kay Lee, carrying her to the car, whispering reassurances. Only then did he close the car door. By the time he closed the door, Sarah Wood and Lewis the elder had approached, Lewis the elder was still holding the man, who evidently, appeared dead. freeweÉnovÄl.coɱ
âHow did he die?â Finn pointed to the man in Lewis the elderâs hand and asked.
âPoison. He had highly concentrated potassium cyanide hidden in his teeth. This toxin kills in three seconds, and without the appropriate tools, I canât detoxify.â Lewis the elderâs voice was heavy.
âHmm,â Finn nodded before turning to Sarah Wood, âIt seems, we need to get reacquainted,â he said evenly.
âSpecial Agent, Sarah Wood.â Sarah Wood paused for a long while before extending her hand and uttering the words.
Special Agent⊠Finn had roughly guessed it, but he still let out a sigh of resignation. Moreover, he estimated that Sarah Wood wasnât just any ordinary special agent. Taking lives without a second thought, she must have killed more than just a few people.
âDoes she know?â Finn jerked his head backward towards his car as he asked.
âEven my parents donât have a clear picture,â Sarah offered a bitter smile.
Finn sighed. It seemed his world was indeed filled with people planted by others. He had consistently focused on protecting those around him, never suspecting that someone had planted themselves into Kay Leeâs life, and so early on. He never saw it coming.
âAlright then, it appears youâll be leaving?â Finn shook his head slightly, realizing why Sarah Wood became Kay Leeâs manager. It was clearly to investigate him.
âDo you think I can stay?â Sarah offered another bitter smile, glancing at the car behind Finn where Kay Lee was. She sighed in resignation and said, âEven if you donât make me leave, Kay Lee will probably have her reservations about me from now on. Put yourself in her shoes, wouldnât you find it hard to accept your best friend turning into a ruthless killer overnight?â
Even if it was to protect her, it would still be difficult to accept. After all, youâve always assumed your best friend to be a normal person, and then sheâs suddenly able to kill several people without batting an eyelash. Anybody would find it difficult to accept that.
âThanks,â Finn said quietly.
âNo need to thank. That was one of my duties. Since itâs like this, Iâd better leave. Weâll take care of everything here,â Sarah glanced at Lewis the elder standing beside Finn before saying.
âAlright then, Iâll leave it to you guys,â Finn nodded. He had already heard the sound of a helicopter. Looking up at the incoming helicopter, he then turned again to go back to his car. Sarah Wood nodded, not uttering a word, resuming her emotionless countenance.

Finn sighed before turning around, opening the car door and climbing in. Lewis the elder also followed him to the driverâs side. Once in the car, Kay Lee immediately moved closer to him; she was evidently scared. Finn pulled her into his arms again and then spoke, âOlivia, look into who these people really were. Donât leave any stone unturned.â
