Chapter 173 is just too...exciting! 4K

Eva cautiously entered the villa, because the house was without water and electricity, so she couldn't turn on the lights.

On the other hand, if lights are on in a house that has been seized by the FBI, it will definitely arouse suspicion.

So even though the house has electricity, Eva doesn't dare turn on the lights.

Fortunately, Eva had lived in the villa for several years, so the lack of light didn't have a significant impact on her life.

Back in her familiar bedroom, Eva immediately received a phone call.

The familiar number on the phone made Eva's emerald green eyes sparkle in the darkness.

"Eva, how's Keith Troy's work going?"

"Not so good, Mr. Walsh."

Although Eva did not report Keyes' first failure to Walsh, it doesn't mean that Eva wouldn't answer truthfully when Walsh asked.

Knowing something but not reporting it and deliberately concealing it are two different concepts.

So far, although Eva has some ulterior motives, she hasn't dared to deliberately hide them from Walsh.

Walsh, on the other end of the phone, was visibly angry upon hearing Eva's words.

"Eva, explain to me what you mean by 'not going smoothly'?"

"That's definitely number one."

Before she could finish speaking, Eva sensed a shadow approaching her, and the woman immediately and nimbly kicked backward.

However, the people behind her seemed to have anticipated Eva's attack and directly restrained her legs.

Standing on one leg, Eva could only continue her attack with her elbow, but her attack was once again anticipated, and the person behind her tripped her by attacking her only weight-bearing leg.

Then he bent Eva's attacking hands and legs backwards simultaneously.

Eva screamed instantly. This joint lock attack was extremely painful, and it would be easy for an ordinary person to lose their fighting ability and give up resisting.

But Eva, who had been trained, did not give up. With her other hand, she pulled out several long needles from between her thighs and stabbed the man behind her in the waist.

If this stab lands, it will definitely severely injure the enemy, and the long needle is also flashing with blue light, clearly indicating that it has been poisoned.

Seeing this, the person behind immediately let go and retreated to avoid the attack of the long needle.

Immediately afterwards, a metal wire was pulled from the watch and wrapped around Eva's hands with lightning speed.

Eva was unwilling to be bound like this and tried to attack the person with her long legs, but she kicked the tough metal wire and cut herself.

Finally, the person who came wrapped all of Eva's limbs with wire, completely rendering her unable to resist.

After doing all this, the man turned Eva over so she could see her own face.

"We meet again, Ms. Eva."

"It's you!"

Eva stared in horror at the man who attacked her; it was Rosen.

"How...how did you find this place?"

Rosen didn't answer Eva, but instead picked up her phone from the ground and helped her continue making the call.

"Hello, Mr. Walsh, I never expected we'd have a conversation like this."

Walsh was silent for a moment on the other end of the phone, then asked Rosen in a gloomy voice.

"Who are you?"

"Mr. Walsh, with your vast connections and influence, why don't you guess who I am? There's a surprise prize if you guess right!"

This provocative way of speaking thoroughly enraged Walsh, an old man accustomed to his superior attitude and intolerant of anyone opposing him.

"Hmph! It doesn't matter who you are, you're dead!"

After saying that, the call was immediately disconnected.

After hearing the busy tone, Rosen put his phone back in his pocket.

"These days, Old Deng really can't take a joke."

Looking down at Eva, Rosen was preparing to get some information from her.

"Ms. Eva, are you prepared to confess willingly, or do you want me to do it first before you confess?"

Eva looked at Rosen in horror.

"If I were you, I would go back to the FBI building right now; that might save my life."

Rosen raised an eyebrow, revealing a curious expression.

"From what you're saying, old Deng knows you're here?"

"My body has been implanted with a tracking device, so Mr. Walsh can know where I am no matter where I am."

Rosen revealed a knowing expression.

"So that's how it is. So how does he plan to deal with me? Will he send a group of assassins to kill me?"

Eva lowered her head, her face showing fear.

"You don't want to know! Take me to the FBI building, please! We're all going to die!"

"What do you mean? Walsh wants to kill you too?"

Eva closed her eyes, a sorrowful smile on her face.

"I've failed once before, and this is the second time. Mr. Walsh won't allow a subordinate to fail twice; he'll kill you and then get rid of me too!"

"How can there be such an inhuman boss? Why do you still listen to him? You might as well cooperate with me, confess Walsh's crimes, and let me send him to prison."

"Let's focus on surviving first, then we can think about this!"

Is it really that exaggerated?

Rosen took out his phone to call Sean for backup, but found a timed errand on the Harvest Day app.

New Job: Exterminate All

Difficulty: ☆☆☆

[Main objective: Survive for 4 hours in Frank Castro's villa]

[Additional condition 1: Ensure Eva's survival]

[Additional Condition 2: Complete the mission without support]

[Additional Condition 3: Eliminate all the assassins]

[Current Status: Countdown has begun]

[Purchasable Information: 1 items]

It's a time-limited job?

Time-limited jobs are a relatively rare type of job, quite different from normal jobs.

The normal procedure for a job is to accept the job, enter the preparation stage, and then begin to officially execute the job.

After the main objective is achieved, the settlement phase begins. At this point, it is still possible to continue fulfilling additional conditions without settling the settlement.

There is no preparation phase for timed jobs; when you see them on the app, it means the job is already happening.

Moreover, there is very little information available for purchase, and sometimes none at all.

The fact that this mission occurred indicates that the assassin Walsh sent was indeed on his way.

Judging from Eva's level of fear, Walsh's killer skills must be quite formidable. The safest option would actually be to call for FBI support.

In this way, the difficulty level of 3 stars should be reduced to that of 2 stars.

But Rosen chose to take the risk for a better future!

With cheat codes available, why be afraid of a few assassins?

Directly—5000!

[Intelligence 1: Frank Castro is hiding a secret arms depot in his home.]

A secret arms depot?

This is quite normal for Americans, especially in redneck states like Texas.

Men are naturally drawn to weapons of killing, and many foreigners who immigrate to America are terrified of firearms.

But after living there for a while, the number of guns in the house kept increasing.

At first, they were just bought for self-defense, but later they became collectibles, and eventually the house was full of guns.

You often see news in America about people engaging in passionate shootouts with police, and after being arrested, hundreds of guns and tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition are found in their homes.

However, such incidents are relatively rare in big cities like Los Angeles, where gun control is a little stricter.

Given the nature of Frank's profession, it's not surprising that he kept a small armory in his villa.

Rosen wants to take on Walsh's killers alone; relying solely on the Glock 18 and Remington M870 will probably not be enough.

But finding Frank's armory will probably require the cooperation of one more person.

Rosen put away his phone and looked at Eva, whose face was ashen.

"Eva, you seem genuinely afraid of Walsh. Can you tell me why?"

Eva answered Rosen with her eyes closed.

"Walsh is both a Los Angeles city council member and a high-ranking executive at the America Continental Hotel. He holds considerable influence in both the legal and illegal worlds. We can't compete with him!"

Rosen crouched down, grabbed Eva's chin, and forced her to open her eyes and look at him.

"You talk about Walsh like he's some omnipotent god, but I know he's just a frail old man. He probably needs half an hour to pee now, so why are you afraid of him?"

Eva's reaction was a bit strange; despite Rosen's very rough actions, her face flushed slightly.

However, the woman was still shrouded in fear, as if Walsh had already deeply implanted fear into the depths of her consciousness.

"You don't understand! No one can defy Mr. Walsh!"

"All I know is that no matter how powerful Walsh is, one bullet can take him down! Since you're going to die anyway, why don't you stand up and fight? Even if it means dying together with Walsh!"

Under the Joker's magic, Eva's expression changed, as if she had been somewhat persuaded.

However, the memories that Walsh had long controlled still triumphed over the Joker Ace.

The Joker Ace is not omnipotent, otherwise Rosen would have gone to the White House long ago to persuade the President to give up his position for him.

It seems we'll have to resort to drastic measures!

Rosen grabbed Eva by the neck, took off his non-prescription glasses, and brought them close to her face.

"You're afraid of Walsh, but aren't you afraid of me? Look me in the eyes!"

The feeling of suffocation made Eva's cheeks flush red, and her emerald green pupils reflected Rosen's handsome face.

Just as Eva's consciousness was about to fade, Rosen released his grip.

Eva coughed violently as she breathed in fresh air again, and then Rosen smelled a strange odor, which made his expression turn odd.

Looking down, I saw some strange liquid on the floor.

Oh no, he actually peed?

Eva didn't care about her sudden urination; for an assassin, such a minor accident was probably nothing.

"Sir, what are your plans?"

"Let's start by taking down Walsh's assassin, right here, just you and me!"

Rosen's resolute words sent a chill down Eva's spine.

Perhaps it was the loss of her non-prescription glasses that created a strange contrast in her appearance, but Eva's gaze towards Rosen became increasingly peculiar.

"Maybe I really am going crazy! Sir, what's your name?"

"You can call me Rosen."

"Mr. Rosen, if you can eliminate all the assassins Walsh sent, you will be my new master from now on!"

Rosen: ? ? ?

Can we please stop playing such feudal games? They're just too...exciting!

"Mr. Rosen, could you please untie the wires binding me? I feel numbness in my limbs, as if I'm about to lose consciousness."

The steel wire pulled from the agent's watch was extremely thin and strong. After Eva's limbs were bound, she was in great pain, and some of her fair and delicate skin even bled from the wire.

Instead of immediately untying the wire, Rosen first put on sunglasses to ascertain Eva's stance.

At this point, Eva's position arc had changed from red to yellow, indicating that her position had changed from hostile to neutral.

After the wire was untied, Eva moved her stiff limbs and stood up.

"Mr. Rosen, may I go to the restroom to wash up?"

There was still some residue on Eva's legs, which smelled quite strong, but Rosen didn't refuse.

However, to prevent Eva from doing anything funny, Lawson followed her into the bathroom and watched her finish washing up.

Eva is very open-minded and doesn't care at all about her body being exposed to other people's eyes.

Rosen had already noticed this when he first caught Eva; the woman probably had an exhibitionist streak.

After a quick wash, Eva put on a clean, white, semi-transparent nightgown, with some key elements still faintly visible.

"Mr. Rosen, please come with me."

Eva led Rosen to the study of Castro's villa. After taking a few books off the bookshelf, the bookshelf automatically split in two.

"This is----"

"Castro's armory was a precaution he took to prevent anyone from storming the villa, but it was never used. Mr. Rosen, since you're dealing with the assassins Walsh sent, pistols alone are definitely not enough."

Eva looked at Rosen with a strange expression and a cryptic look in her eyes.

Inside the bookshelf was a small room, with all sorts of firearms hanging on the walls, from pistols to submachine guns, rifles, and sniper rifles—you name it, they had it.

Rosen even spotted a six-barreled Gatling gun.

Unfortunately, although this gun is powerful, it is too heavy, making you basically a sitting duck when you hold it.

The best way to use this heavy machine gun is to mount it on a vehicle.

However, Rosen wasn't actually very interested in these firearms.

In an indoor environment like a villa, the Glock 18 and Remington M870 are sufficient to meet most needs.

Rosen was more interested in some of the things placed on the table.

"Castro actually hid Claymore mines and C4 in his own home? Are these real?"

Eva shrugged.

"I only saw him open the bookshelf once, and he never came in to look inside. But I think he wouldn't put fake things here."

That makes sense; fake Claymore mines wouldn't need to be placed in such a hidden location.

In addition to the Claymore mines, Rosen also found other explosives in the room.

Frank had prepared enough for a small skirmish, but unfortunately, it all ended up in Rosen's hands.

Well, it's possible that not only these things belong to Lawson, but some other things may also belong to Lawson.

"Mr. Rosen, why are you looking at me like that?"

"I just happened to have some inspiration and need your help. Come on, victory must be earned with our own hands!"
