special task

"What?! What did you say?!"

"Ms. Lin, you'd better come back soon, Leila, it's gone!"

"Okay! I'll leave it to you for one day! It's not even a day! You actually lost people?! Wait!"

Wu Lin hung up the phone angrily, raised her feet and started running towards the library. Beside her feet was a person lying on the ground with a bruised nose and a swollen face. She chose a more direct method in order to solve the problem quickly.Simply put, fight until convinced.She even omitted the steps of torture and threats, and directly beat people until they lost all vigor, which took less than a day.

Just as she was confidently planning to report to Finch to show off, Finch first called her and told her that Layla was missing.It is conceivable that Wu Lin couldn't believe her ears, what is missing? !Little Leila can't turn over yet!She cursed in her heart, don't tell her that it was John who lost Leila's sight, otherwise she would definitely not be able to resist beating him up.If it's Finch...this...forget it.Finch's small body, if it is accidentally broken, it will be troublesome...

Hurrying quickly, Wu Lin returned to the library within 10 minutes, and the two were still looking for someone in full swing.Wu Lin also ignored her, and plunged into the important task of finding Leila.Compared to Layla, the library was like looking for a needle in a haystack. From the conversation between John and Finch, Wu Lin knew that Finch was missing when he was looking after her.Now Wu Lin thinks in reverse, she should want John to lose the child more, so that she has a reason to beat him up!

Leila's figure still did not appear in front of her eyes, Wu Lin's anxiety was more than a little bit, and what made her even more frightened was that she saw Leila holding a grenade in her hand!

Wu Lin took a deep breath, and stretched out her hand slowly. Leila raised her eyes, saw Wu Lin, and giggled again, but her hand was still holding the grenade, as if she wanted to stuff it into her mouth.Wu Lin snatched the grenade. When she got the grenade, she felt that her heart was going cold, and she stopped for a few seconds.Putting the grenade aside, picked up Leila, and turned around to see the nervous expressions of the two men.

"You... I am too lazy to talk about you. Fortunately, Leila is fine."

Finch looked at Wu Lin's tired and disappointed look, and felt a little uncomfortable.After looking at the pile of weapons, he turned around and began to complain about John: "【Mr. Rees, I told you, you should move those weapons.】"

Wu Lin turned her reproachful eyes to John again, and John rubbed his forehead: "【I will transfer it.】"

"【when?】"

John sighed deeply and didn't answer.

Finch looked again at the child in Wu Lin's hands who had no idea how dangerous he was just now: "[We must hand her over to her grandparents.]"

A trace of panic rose in Wu Lin's heart: "Why? No, I don't agree!"

"Ms. Lynn, we're not sure when we'll need your help, Layla needs to be watched at all times. Besides...we're always in danger."

Wu Lin was silenced by Finch's words. Yes, no matter how much she wanted to raise Leila, she had to hand her over to her grandparents. Otherwise, no matter how much they tried to protect her, there would always be times when they couldn't protect her.Just like today, Leila will still accidentally get into danger, so the gain outweighs the loss.And considering that she couldn't stay here for long, she had to admit that Layla needed someone who could give her enough attention anytime, anywhere, and they never could.

"Where are they..."

Wu Lin struggled to squeeze these words out between her teeth. She was reluctant, but she had to.After making up your mind, all you can do is make a quick decision.

"They're in one of my safe houses."

**** SAFE HOUSE ****

Wu Lin sat in the back seat with Layla, while Finch sat in the front and John drove.John volunteered to find the way, and Wu Lin held Leila in her arms. Just as she got out of the car, she felt a cool breeze on the back of her neck and walked away.A roundabout kick only hit the man's calf.That person had a gun in his hand, Wu Lin hugged Leila even tighter, pulled out a small pistol from her waist with one hand, and shot that person, ready to shoot him in the shoulder.The man didn't react too slowly, he also pulled out the pistol at his waist, dodged Wu Lin's shot, and instead shot Wu Lin.

That person really didn't mind that Wu Lin had a baby in her arms. Such merciless marksmanship chilled Wu Lin, and she tried to let the bullets graze her body.Because there was a little more weight in her hand, and she was still holding the little Leila who was afraid of melting, her reaction was not too fast, and her arm was scratched by the bullet.Even though she was used to the pain, Wu Lin almost let go of Little Leila at first glance.Quickly changed hands, but at the very moment of the change, that person shot at Wu Lin again.

This time, Wu Lin was not so lucky, she only had time to prevent the bullet from hurting Leila, so she was shot in her left shoulder.That person stepped forward quickly and snatched Leila from Wu Lin's hand.Wu Lin wanted to resist, but she couldn't fully adapt because of the sudden injury. She wanted to punch with the other hand, but that person held Leila as a shield in his hand, and she was afraid of hurting Leila.The last part of Wu Lin's consciousness was when the man hit Wu Lin's head to the ground.

When Wu Lin woke up, her head was heavy and she had tinnitus.She was already in the car, looked around, but couldn't find Layla.Finch and John in the front row, still John driving.

"Layla..."

"We'll find her."

John's voice was unusually firm, and then he continued: "No matter what means."

Wu Lin also secretly made up her mind that she was the one who lost him this time, and she must find him back.No matter what means are used.

After John put Wu Lin and Finch in the library, he ran away by himself. Wu Lin's head was still a little dizzy. Finch was going to watch Wu Lin. It would be more miserable if he accidentally concussed up.But Wu Lin also ran away while Finch was getting water for Wu Lin. She had a destination, which was the place that Palf brought in three months ago.

In a certain corner of the street, Wu Lin looked at this familiar entrance, and the expression on her face quickly faded into a cold poker face.

Step by step, no matter how anxious Wu Lin was, she still walked down the stairs leisurely.Dim environment, loud music, smoky scene filled with alcohol, sweat, smoke, drugs and some unknown smells.For a moment, Wu Lin felt that she couldn't breathe, as if she had returned to the time when she just stepped here more than three months ago.Although she has only left here for more than a month, she hopes that she will never come back in her life.

She walked to the front desk, maintaining that cold look on her face, the people around her stopped what they were doing, and Qi Qi turned her head to look at Wu Lin.During the whispered exchange, Wu Lin heard the nickname she had earned here with blood and sweat: Bat.

At first, this was just a joke given to her, because she only had one bottom line, just like that person.No matter how she beats her opponent, she doesn't kill.Although compared to that person, she is not worthy of the name at all.Bats...how is she worthy?

Sitting in front of the counter at the bar, Wu Lin knew that she couldn't be weaker at this time.

"The Godfather. (Note 28)"

The bartender and bartender nodded solemnly. Everyone in the bar knew her.All the people in this bar are all the people who were forced to defeat by Palf. They originally belonged to the underworld, but because everyone started to rebel against Palf and Wu Lin, they united instead to avoid absorbed.

Yes, absorbed.

At the beginning, many people were forced to join a new organization. A man named Elijah seemed to appear out of nowhere and controlled most of the underworld in New York.The people here were busy challenging Wu Lin, and when they were finally defeated by Wu Lin, those people also became loyal to Wu Lin and Palf because they didn't want to serve Elijah.Palf didn't take over. He originally wanted Wu Lin to learn how to kill before taking over, but...it took longer than Palf thought.

Wu Lin and Palf have not taken over for a long time, making this group of people ready to move. Even though it is clear that the biggest one cannot be the leader, there still seems to be a lot of room for the left and right arms.And once a group of people start to move around, their hearts will not be so "loyal".Seeing this situation, Palf said again: Whoever challenges Wu Lin successfully, no matter what means, can be the second in command.During the two weeks in dire straits, after Wu Lin was continuously injured and learned to prevent more assassination methods and low-level methods, she beat people harder.

But no matter what, she still believed that "there is always another way" and refused to kill, and she finally won. All those who challenged her, whether it was conspiracy or conspiracy, she finally won, not only won, It also made the group of people more convinced.In the end, they chose a suitable person, reported to Wu Lin and Palf, and said they would manage it for them, and promised that as long as they asked, they would do it. The password was "Godfather".

Such a result, such stubbornness, annoyed Palf.Wu Lin was directly threatened by Palf. If she refused to kill, then she would be eliminated by Palf.

For Wu Lin, challenging Palf is simply an impossible task.People in the gang, even the most professional thugs, are not killers, so no matter what, Wu Lin has a chance of winning, and what she has done is to make the odds come true.But Palf is different. Palf's job is to kill people. As long as Palf thinks, Wu Lin can only fight him a few times.Whether it is experience or technology, she can't compare with Palf.But... Can this make her give up?

Thinking of Palf's persecution, the image of that person will always appear in Wu Lin's mind.

She gritted her teeth, almost no part of her body was clean, but she still refused to retreat.Once she regresses, a deeper abyss awaits her, and she refuses to fall into it, even if the price is her life, she refuses.What's more, she firmly believes that there is always another way.There will always be!

however……

The reality came too suddenly.

Wu Lin was ravaged by Palf for several days, until Palf seemed really impatient, he didn't know where he caught him, and told Wu Lin that this person is not a good person, he is also a murderer.The meaning between the words is to let Wu Lin solve the problem.And because this person is not a good person, Wu Lin doesn't need to have any psychological burden in her heart.Just as Wu Lin wanted to refuse, Palf threw another document to Wu Lin, which was processed.Wu Lin could tell at a glance that the name inside was John.It was a document for summary execution, and it was approved.

At this moment, Wu Lin's heart sank to the bottom.But she still believed that if it was John, he would have a solution.Yeah?

However, no one knows the government's capabilities better than Wu Lin, and Palf is a living example.Once [-]% of the people sent are like Palf, how high is John's survival rate?What's more, there are a group of people...

Wu Lin's speechlessness caused Palf to sneer with satisfaction for the first time at Wu Lin: "Give it up, is it important that you don't kill people, or your 'benefactor' is more important?"

Her hand was stuffed into a gun, and she thought a lot in just that short moment.She thought about what would happen to her if John didn't save her life, and then she made a decision: she believed that John could handle it.

The gun was thrown into Palf's arms by Wu Lin, but Palf didn't pick it up. The crisp sound of the gun falling to the ground made Wu Lin feel relieved.

"Your 'benefactor' is not important, what about your mother?"

The cold voice made Wu Lin's nerves tense just now. She raised her head in surprise, and her resentful eyes didn't flinch: "What are you trying to do? She's on the other side!"

"There are at least two watchers around her, you know."

"You can't do this!" Wu Lin looked at this man in disbelief, as if she was meeting him for the first time. She thought she knew how terrifying this man was, but she was wrong.

"Kill that person." The cold look seemed to have no emotion at all, and the voice seemed to come from hell.

"They won't listen to you!" Terrified and anxious, Wu Lin could hardly think, and could only resist instinctively.

"You can try." He was unmoved, and Wu Lin looked this man up and down, as if trying to find flaws in his movements and expressions.

Nothing... Wu Lin found out in despair that she really couldn't do anything.John can still believe that he can solve it by himself, but what about the mother?The mother has nothing, and the mother is still innocent. The mother doesn't even know what Wu Lin is involved in. She only knows that Wu Lin is working, working in a distance, and she can't talk about it because of the confidentiality agreement, and she can't go back.

"Kill him." Palf's voice seemed soft, but it could only make Wu Lin shiver.

"You devil...why..." Wu Lin couldn't figure it out, she really couldn't figure it out, why did she have to kill someone?There is obviously a way to solve it without killing, why must she kill?Why?

Palf didn't answer, but just looked at the gun on the ground.Wu Lin squatted down and picked it up. Her hands kept shaking, and she even held the gun twice before she could hold it firmly.She wanted to stand up, but no matter what, she didn't have the strength, her raised body seemed to be weighed down by tens of thousands of catties.

It wasn't until Wu Lin held the gun in her hand, tremblingly holding it up, and aimed at the tied up sobbing and unable to speak, that she closed her eyes in pain and asked herself, how could she do it?

Can't do it...she can't do it...she can't do it!

Wu Lin was a little broken. She couldn't see the man's face, and the gun was tilted.But when she thinks of her mother... She can't make fun of her mother's life. She can't let her mother be in any danger when she is already ashamed of her mother and she has already escaped because of her own selfishness.

When she pulled the trigger, she couldn't open her eyes, but when she closed her eyes, she didn't hear the sound of the bullet penetrating the body.

At this time, Wu Lin felt that her body was being embraced by someone, and that person's hand was placed on Wu Lin's, holding it for Wu Lin.The covered hand is obviously so warm, why is that person's heart so cold?

She felt someone exhale by her ear, and that person's cold voice came from Wu Lin's ear: "Open your eyes."

Wu Lin opened her eyes subconsciously. For a moment, Wu Lin felt her hand was being held by Palf's hand like a marionette, and they pulled the trigger together.She watched helplessly as the sobbing man groaned, completely silent.Blood gushed out from the hole that was obviously made by her, and it seemed that it couldn't flow cleanly.How can there be so much human blood?

As soon as the man let go of Wu Lin's hand, the gun immediately fell back to the ground.This time, Wu Lin's heartbeat continued to accelerate, and she seemed to hear the sound of ridicule in her ears.That crisp sound seemed to tell Wu Lin: I can't go back.

Wu Lin stared blankly at her hands, and only then remembered what Mrs. Macbeth meant when she was learning Macbeth that year: blood... blood that couldn't be washed clean... all in balls on Wu Lin's hands.

After a while, Wu Lin came back to her senses, supported her nerves that were about to collapse, tried to put on a vicious look, and threatened Palf: "Never, never use my mother to threaten me again, otherwise, I will not Mind getting rid of you too. You know, I'm different now."

Palf looked at Wu Lin for a while, then nodded with satisfaction: "Good girl, you have my guarantee."

"Now, tell me, what danger is John in?"

The corners of Palf's mouth seemed to have started to curl up a bit. Wu Lin has always been a good student, so she draws inferences from one instance.

"I'll give you the time and place. Now, go and rest."

Palf put his hands on Wu Lin's shoulders, trying to comfort Wu Lin. Wu Lin seemed to be frightened, and immediately stepped back three steps, and then the horror on her face was replaced by disgust.Turning around, Wu Lin completely practiced the attitude of out of sight to Palf, but the blood-stained scene was deeply engraved in Wu Lin's mind, and she couldn't get rid of it.And the fear of Palf went deep into his bone marrow, and he couldn't forget it.Just knowing that she breathes the same air as him can already make her feel heavy pressure and boredom instinctively, let alone talking to him.Every sentence made her feel sick, and every minute and every second she spent with Palf before that made her feel unbearable.She actually believed in a demon and let a demon train her?So... what is she now?Also a demon?Ah……

So, she really didn't want to come back here, everything here reminded her of the training with Palf, the dead man who still didn't know who it was, and the smell of blood that couldn't be washed off her hands no matter how much she washed.Everything is so vivid, as if it was yesterday, and as if it was so far away in a few lifetimes.She seemed to have lightened up on those burdens a lot in the days of saving people with John and Finch, so she really enjoyed being with them.It's just...how long can this last?How long can Palf stay away from her?

Note 28: The Godfather is a kind of cocktail, of course it is a secret sign here.

The author has something to say: representation == this is actually only half of Wu Lin's perspective.Palf's side is actually not as cold as Wu Lin thought.Spread your hands~
