Chapter 42: The Past
Chapter 42: The Past
In the end, Alice got tired of this tug of war which didn't seem to be over soon so she decided to talk candidly with Sun Jie and make things clear.
" Jiejie, I am serious about wanting to be your friend, except hurting Shi Tu, I can help you with anything else, why don't you give me a chance? You can't live like this forever, revenge will not bring back the dead. I am sure that your mother does not want you to live in the shadow of revenge forever and she wants you to live your life happily " Alice seriously tried to persuade Sun Jie
Upon seeing the serious look on Alice's face, Sun Jie realized that she couldn't avoid it this time
"You will never understand how I feel Do you think that I do not understand my moms desires? But, I cannot stop thinking about revenge. Perhaps it would have been different if I did not know the identity of the perpetrator, but now that I know it is impossible to retreat, not a minute goes by without remembering how my mom died and that The one who killed her used to live near me all the time, and now I serve and live in the house of someone who helped in killing my mom"
This was what Sun Jie regretted most, her mother's killer was happily living alongside her even she fully trusted her and kept nothing from her.
How could she pretend to be sad and say all those words to her? for four years, Sun Jie had been watching crocodile tears, which she believed and did not suspect at all
The fact that she was able to avenge her mother at any time for four years but didn't do it tears Sun Jie's heart every moment.
" Who said that I don't understand you? Actually, I am more miserable than you. At least you spent 16 years with your mother. While I lived only 6 years, you had a father and a brother and your mother was killed by strangers, but I did not have anyone and my mother was killed by my father, tell me, Who do you think is the most miserable among us? For your mother to die at the hands of your father or just a maid? ''
"This ..." Sun Jie didn't know for a moment what she to say
" Just like you, I hated my father deeply and dreamed every night about revenge and killing him, but I couldn't, I tried thousands of times, but all my attempts were unsuccessful because my father is so strong and now I lost my desire for revenge after I was more obsessed than you because this is simply impossible instead of wasting my life in something like revenge. I'd rather live my life freely and do whatever I want, at least this will keep my mother happiest in her grave. "
Sun Jie lowered her head while thinking about what Alice had said
Alice grabbed Sun Jie's hand and said
" Do you remember what I told you earlier about Shi Tu's Law? Strength is everything I can help you get rid of Yu Ying and Rothschild but you have to give up on Shi Tu because that's impossible. It's just like my father, you can't kill him no matter what you do so you just have to live with him. "
"Really? can you help me?" But Sun Jie thought a little before saying sadly, "But I want to kill them with my hand. I don't want someone else to do it for me."
" No problem, I can bring them for you and let you do whatever you want with them. "
" Really? "
" Of course, but I have a condition, you must approve it first "
Sun Jie was a little disappointed, but didn't get angry because her father taught her that there is nothing free in this world and it is normal to pay a certain price for something.
Alice smiled broadly and said, " I want us to be friends. "
"Ha? " Sun Jie was a little surprised before smiling
Sun Jie did not answer directly, but she hesitated a little before asking
" Can you tell me who is Shi Tu in reality? Why is he that strong? "
Although she asked the question, she did not expect Alice to answer and wanted to use this to say that she was the one who did not trust her, but Alice did not disappoint her
" Do you know the assassins league? "
" Yes, isn't it the biggest killer organization in the world? I heard about it from my father. He told me that he is the greatest power in the world and that he has hands and followers everywhere ... Hey are you saying that Shi Tu is a member of the assassins league? "
Alice smiled lightly, "He is not just a member but is the head of the demon, master of the entire league. "
"What? Are you kidding me? He is head of the demon? " Sun Jie was shocked, and couldn't comprehend what she heard
She knew that Shi Tu is very powerful and influential but not to that extent, doesn't his being the head of the demon mean that he is the man standing on top of the entire world?
Alice was not surprised by Sun Jie's reaction because anyone who knew and heard about head of the demon will not believe that a young man like Shi Tu is hed of the demon, so she calmly explained to Sun Jie.
Two years ago, Shi Tu caused many problems in the US and won the animosity of many people because he was known at that time as the King of Gambling and the King of Thieves.
Due to his actions many people hired the assassins league to get rid of Shi Tu, but every killer sent never came back.
In the end an Elite squad was sent out led by Alice who tried all possible means to get rid of him
They tried to kill him by using a sniper, but they did not succeed they even decided to blow up the city in which he lives completely because of the shame he inflicted on the assassins League, once with explosives and once with missiles, but they did not succeed and every time he let them go, but the stubborn Alice did not give up and lost her nerve once and attacked Shi Tu directly brutally Several times, but Shi Tu was content to beat her before leaving her
Once Alice attacked Shi Tu again, but it was strange this time because Alice looked like a raging monster more than usual, although she was beaten as usual, but this time Alice was detained and Shi Tu asked to see head of the demon.
No one knew the dialogue that took place between them, but in the end, the head of the demon handed over the position of the head of the demon to Shi Tu
A year ago, Shi Tu wiped out his city in accordance with the league traditions and became the new head of the demon
" Wait, did you say Shi Tu became the head of the demon only a year ago? "
" Yes, and this in itself is a great achievement because he is the youngest head of the demon in history, because all of his predecessors reached this position, at least in the thirties. "
Sun Jie was surprised, but what she said was not logical
' Wait, doesn't that mean Shi Tu had nothing to do with mom die four years ago? '
" Does this mean that your father is who ordered to assassinate mom four years ago? "
" Of course no, it is impossible that head of the demon annoyed with the assassination of the first class unless they are classified as impossible for any member, will not be notified head of the demon such things "
" Does this mean your father didn't know? "
Alice stared at Sun Jie a little and began questioning her intelligence for asking such obvious questions
" It is not that he did not know, but rather that he did not order them, because carrying out assassinations does not require the approval of the head of the demon, because the league carries out many missions daily, but every mission will be mentioned in the report that is handed over to the head of the demon. Do you not know this? It is like the company that you manage. "
" This ...."
Sun Jie didn't know what to say because the matter should be clear, but her mental state is not stable at the moment, so she can't analyze the matter objectively.
" If Shi Tu had nothing to do with my mom's death, why did he describe himself as a mediator and did not tell me that he had nothing to do with it? Would this not prevent him from bearing my hatred? "
" Hahaha, there are countless people in the world who hate Shi Tu and wish him dead, but he is still alive. So, adding one to the list will not make a difference, and the boss must bear the consequences of the actions of his followers. Just holding the title ' head of the demon ' means bearing all the grudges directed at those who preceded him. This is the duty of the boss of an organization "
Sun Jie didn't say anything but the atmosphere around her changed clearly, and it seems that she is not alienated from Alice anymore
Alice stared at Sun Jie strangely
' To what extent is this girl's obsession reached with her revenge for her mother? Instead of focusing on the point of Shi Tu's destruction of the capital, she completely ignored her and focused on her mother's case? '
Alice didn't know whether to laugh or cry
Usually someone hears the story of Shi Tu will wet himself out of fear, but Sun Jie didn't care at all, either her courage is too great or she's really broken.
