Chapter 32

The Cross Residence.

Bai Xiaofei sat in the Cross's room, looking at the densely packed strategy materials on the table about the Mutual Aid Society's headquarters, suddenly falling into deep thought.

It had been more than four months since he arrived in the Assassin Alliance timeline.

Because he arrived too early, the plot had not yet begun. During this time, Bai Xiaofei learned how to throw guns, developed the ability to attach mental powers to bullets, obtained the secret formula for a medicinal solution, and learned special bullet manufacturing techniques from an old man, Pekhovski, who was a weapons supplier for the Cross and lived in the East Moravia Monastery.

Bai Xiaofei could now easily use his mental power to modify bullets into various special types, such as rifled bullets, hollow-point bullets, bleeding bullets, and spiral hollow-point bullets. Among these, the rifled hollow-point bullet was his favorite. Due to its special structure, it allowed Bai Xiaofei to more easily and efficiently attach mental power.

If he used this type of bullet, even when using the gun-throwing technique to attach mental power, Bai Xiaofei could fire about 100 rounds, greatly enhancing his sustained firepower.

The only downside was that although these bullets were less strenuous to use and had a faster firing rate, their power was somewhat reduced!

Additionally, the script Bai Xiaofei sent to a well-known Hollywood director gradually received replies, and the result was that all of them were sold, earning him over 5 million US dollars. He became the most sought-after famous screenwriter in Hollywood, with countless directors and producers seeking to collaborate with him. However, since Bai Xiaofei used a fake name, they naturally couldn't find him.

During the time Bai Xiaofei was practicing his gun skills and developing mental power bullets, the Cross was not idle either.

This guy, besides going out to drink and have fun with women every now and then, would immediately follow the trail of the Mutual Aid Society members as soon as he discovered any movement, like a cat that had smelled fish, and then find an opportunity to knock them out with a single shot. Over the four months, the Cross had eliminated at least a dozen of the Mutual Aid Society's top members, infuriating the big boss, Sloan, to the point of almost having a heart attack!

At the same time, due to the Cross's疯狂猎杀, the cornered Sloan began to think and turned his attention to the protagonist, Wesley.

Previously, there were only two or three people monitoring Wesley, but now it had increased to six, covering his residence, the road, and his workplace, almost 24/7 surveillance. This was to more closely monitor and analyze Wesley, and also to see if any clues about the Cross could be found from Wesley.

At this rate, it wouldn't be long before Sloan sent Fox to recruit Wesley.

Speaking of Fox, Bai Xiaofei couldn't help but think of his mission. Eliminating Sloan and the Mutual Aid Society was not difficult for the current Bai Xiaofei, especially with the help of the Assassin King who knew everything about them, making the task incredibly easy. What troubled Bai Xiaofei was how to save Fox!

Fox was a woman with a tragic background. Her family was killed when she was young, and she later joined the Mutual Aid Society, always believing in the creed of "kill one, save a thousand." However, she didn't realize that she and others were being completely used by the big boss, Sloan. At the end of the movie, even after learning the truth, she still adhered to the absurd creed and chose to follow her fate.

She was like a devout and loyal believer, who, to follow and uphold her faith, fired the bullet representing the judgment and cycle of fate, choosing to sacrifice herself!

When watching the movie, Bai Xiaofei had always felt deep sympathy and regret for Fox. Now... he wanted to save Fox!

Not just because of the mission, but more so to save a person who had been toyed with by fate!

Bai Xiaofei genuinely wanted to save Fox!

So, the question was:

To save Fox, Bai Xiaofei would have to make contact with her and find a way to change her views on the Mutual Aid Society and her fate, to prevent her from choosing suicide when she learned the truth.

But Fox, being a member of the Mutual Aid Society, rarely went out except when Sloan assigned her tasks.

Without even being able to make contact, how could he talk about saving her?

Bai Xiaofei fell into deep thought.

...

The Cross had eliminated another member of the Mutual Aid Society.

When he returned to his residence in a very good mood, he was surprised to find that the usually carefree Bai Xiaofei was now looking at him with a serious expression, as if he had been waiting for him for a long time!

The Cross was taken aback and then looked at Bai Xiaofei with a serious face, saying, "Bai, are you waiting for me? Could it be... you're ready to attack the Mutual Aid Society?"

After living together for four months, the Cross had a good understanding of Bai Xiaofei's personality.

Bai Xiaofei showing this expression meant he had made an important decision!

Bai Xiaofei nodded and said, "Yes! I've been waiting for you to come back, but not to attack the Mutual Aid Society. Instead, I plan to join the Mutual Aid Society as a mole!"

"A mole?"

The Cross frowned, pulled over a chair, and sat opposite Bai Xiaofei, confused. "Bai, I don't think this is necessary. With my strength and your unparalleled gun skills, eliminating Sloan and the Mutual Aid Society is just a matter of time. Why risk it alone?"

Bai Xiaofei patted the Cross's shoulder and explained, "Brother, I believe not all members of the Mutual Aid Society deserve to die. There are definitely people like you who uphold justice among them, but they are currently being misled by Sloan, just like you were before you left the Mutual Aid Society."

"I chose to join the Mutual Aid Society to gain deeper intelligence and strength about the enemy. Second, I want to screen and see if there are any worth saving. If there are, I will try to win them over to become our allies against Sloan! As for the ignorant and cowardly, let them die!"

The Cross was taken aback by this.

After thinking carefully for a moment, the Cross found that Bai Xiaofei's words made sense. He said, "Bai, I admit what you said is reasonable, but... this is too dangerous. If you are exposed, you might not survive!"

Bai Xiaofei smiled confidently and said, "Brother, don't worry! My plan is meticulous and well-prepared. I won't be easily exposed, and even if I am, I have a way to escape!"

"Oh?"

The Cross looked at Bai Xiaofei with surprise. "You already have a plan?"

The Cross had a high regard for Bai Xiaofei's abilities. Even if he wanted to kill Bai Xiaofei, he wasn't confident he could succeed, as Bai Xiaofei's endless abilities were too bizarre and unpredictable. Even as the Assassin King, he was envious of those terrifying gun skills, but unfortunately, he lacked the talent to learn them, despite Bai Xiaofei teaching him the methods.

Since Bai Xiaofei said it was fine, it must be. After a moment's thought, the Cross chose to trust Bai Xiaofei.

He said, "What do you plan to do? Let me know if you need any help!"

Bai Xiaofei smiled mysteriously and said, "You just stick to your old job and snipe the members of the Mutual Aid Society. If there are any worth saving, I'll let you know in advance. Speaking of help, I need to use your son, Wesley, to create a perfect excuse for me to join the Mutual Aid Society!"

The Cross was taken aback. Hearing that Bai Xiaofei wanted to use Wesley, he immediately worried, "Use Wesley? Will he... be in any danger?"

Bai Xiaofei patted the Cross's shoulder and reassured him with a smile, "Brother, don't worry! I guarantee your son will be completely safe! On the contrary, if we're lucky, we might even get Sloan to lift the surveillance on Wesley! We'll see how it goes!"
