Chapter 674: Chapter 648 The First Person

The purpose of interrogation is to uncover what one wants to know, and now that Little Andic is tamed and willing to tell everything he knows, naturally, the next step is to speak without reservation.

Under the puzzled but respectful gazes of several people, Yuri wasted no time and said bluntly: "During your coma, many people took action to either rescue or eliminate you, including the FBI and the Special Service Bureau, why is that?"

Little Andic thought for a moment and said: "Because I hold too many of their secrets, especially the FBI, they have the most business dealings with the Dark Web. Their Red and Blue Group basically relies on Bitcoin for settlements. If Bitcoin crashes or is completely obsolete, the FBI would suffer the most. Additionally, I know about some FBI’s business on the Dark Web, so the likelihood of them rescuing me is slim; eliminating me is imperative."

"Good, make a list of those you know."

Yuri just wanted Little Andic to make a list, but Gao Yi was curious about what the FBI had been up to; however, upon reflection, he realized there was no need to ask, as there are no new things under the Sun.

Right now, the urgent matter is not to ask about these trivial details, but to focus on the key questions.

Little Andic fell into thought and said, somewhat puzzled: "As for the Special Service Bureau... it’s because many people want to assassinate the President. For such matters, they won’t directly seek assassins from the Dark Web; they directly contacted the Special Service Bureau instead, and through Andic, they found two assassins on the Dark Web today. Therefore, the people in the Special Service Bureau want me dead more than anyone."

Yuri’s eyes widened slightly, just for a fleeting moment, but he did show a look of surprise.

Gao Yi also found it unbelievable, and Dani said without hesitation: "Impossible! If someone really wants to assassinate the President and they can directly use the Special Service Bureau, then why would they need to look for assassins on the Dark Web? That’s too low-tier."

Little Andic said helplessly: "Because the Special Service Bureau also wants things done cleanly, they want to clear their suspicions. Moreover, when the Special Service Bureau wants to assassinate the President, it’s the most convenient for them. They only need to create an opportunity for the assassin; just leave a gap when the assassin acts. Even if those protecting the President are loyal and reliable, there are still too many opportunities."

Yuri said in a low voice: "Hmm, do you have direct evidence?"

"Yes, someone placed an order on the Dark Web seeking assassins, and assassins have accepted the orders. Moreover, I know that the person offering the bounty is from the Special Service Bureau. They’re very secretive. The bounty wasn’t posted directly on the Dark Web but through my father’s private channels. After all, the Dark Web can’t post bounties targeting any country’s heads, but through our father-son duo, we can easily contact them without using the Dark Web."

After a brief pause, Little Andic said in a low voice: "This is my father’s business, actually, many high-end deals are conducted outside the channels of the Dark Web."

Yuri smiled and said: "Predictable, so what about Ben’s bounty on the Gardener? Are there any additional secret tasks outside of the Dark Web?"

"Uh, well, yes, Ben wants to eliminate the Gardener by any means, so besides the bounty openly posted on the Dark Web, they also want to directly place orders with any powerful assassin group, and then..."

Little Andic hesitated slightly, considered his situation, and could only continue: "There aren’t many assassin organizations willing to take this order. As far as I know, Zilch accepted the task to eliminate the Gardener. Ben offered 500 million USD, and I’ll add a bit more, Zilch also accepted the Special Service Bureau’s order, priced at 30 million dollars."

Zilch, this term sounds so familiar. Gao Yi thought about it briefly and immediately remembered, he said in amazement: "The top-ranked assassin on the Dark Web, the only triple-A assassin, is him?"

"Yes, but I have no contact with this person. Only my father knows his identity, or perhaps my father doesn’t even know, but he’s the only one who can contact him."

Little Andic appeared slightly helpless; he thought for a while and said: "This person is the trump card in my father’s hands; his task completion rate is 100%. Moreover, he has many tasks that are privately assigned through my father’s connections but always maintain a 100% success rate. I don’t know where he is, don’t know if it’s one person or several, I just know he’s very formidable, and until my father completely retires, I won’t get his contact information."

A familiar name, a person whom many have admired, but unexpectedly, one day a relationship forms with this top-ranked assassin, and it’s by being listed on his assassination target.

Gao Yi felt a bit gloomy and actually sensed a hint of tension.

Yuri said without hesitation: "Does this task have a time limit?"

"No, it’s an indefinite task. As long as Zilch can produce evidence that he eliminated the Gardener, then Ben will pay immediately."

At this point, Little Andic didn’t need to hide anything anymore, he said in a low voice: "Ben is a country, they have the ability to pay, and Ben has already directly established contact with Zilch, so theoretically, this is an indefinite perpetual mission. As long as Ben exists, Zilch isn’t dead, the Gardener isn’t dead, this task will continue indefinitely. Furthermore, as long as the Gardener is alive, no matter who uses Zilch’s identity, they can carry out this task. Because although Zilch may be an assassin account, it’s unlikely to be just one person, it’s at least a small team, many things aren’t achievable by one person alone."

The most troublesome are these extremely mysterious assassins. Acting alone, well hidden, it’s challenging to locate them, but if you let it go, then in the rest of life, you’ll always worry about being hunted down by an assassin. How can life go on like this?

Simultaneously accepting the task to assassinate Gao Yi and the President, this Zilch indeed shows some courage. Surprisingly, the bounty on Gao Yi is several times more than that of the President.

Yuri said directly: "Is your father dead?"

"I don’t know..."

Little Andic thought for a while and said: "He probably is; he’s always instilled the idea in me that if ever faced with the result of being captured, it’s best to end your life quickly because our identities cannot survive, trying to live will only result in a worse death, but, but, but..."

After saying several ’buts,’ Little Andic said with a face full of helplessness: "But who can truly just do nothing and accept death? You must do something for self-rescue, and then... you don’t want to die."

Indeed, it sounds simple, and you know that falling into enemy hands will have consequences scarier than death, but few can face death and resolutely end their lives.

The rationale is straightforward, but few can truly do it, especially for someone like Little Andic, a pampered second-generation individual, who finds it even harder to achieve.

Yuri looked at Dani, and said in a low voice: "Go check, see if Old Andic is dead, quickly."
