Charlie asked with a smile, "Aren't you going to ask m e how I found out your identity?" 3
Masatetsu's eyes were wide opened in shock as he stared at Charlie. "You...you knew about it all along?!" h e asked in return.
Charlie nodded and smiled. "Of course, I know about i t!"
"That is impossible!"
"Why is it impossible? Blame it on your weak Japanese ninjas."
Masatetsu was in great shock. "Were you the one who killed my fourth junior?"
Charlie nodded casually, and he replied, “That’s right. I t was me."
"I also killed your second and third juniors. Their dead bodies are lying inside your car trunk now." 3
"You bastard!!" Masatetsu roared.
Immediately after, a dagger suddenly fell out of his left sleeve and dropped right into his left palm.
Masatetsu channeled all the strength he had onto his left hand, as he tried to stab Charlie with all of his might. 6
Charlie simply smiled in amusement when he saw
Masatetsu's attempt. Charlie continued gripping Masatetsu's right arm with one hand, while he used the other to grab hold of Masatetsu's left wrist with force.
Masatetsu did not expect Charlie to have such incredible strength. He could not move at all after Charlie grabbed hold of his left wrist.
When Charlie saw the horrified look on Masatetsu's face, his lips curled into an eerie smile. 5
"Mr. Fujibayashi, don't be so nervous. If you stop resisting, I can ensure that you won’t have to go through many sufferings when I kill you later." 1
Masatetsu was on the verge of collapsing when he heard this as he stuttered in horror, "Sir.... sir! I was only acting under Mr. Takahashi's instructions! He was the one who sent me to tail and monitor you! Please spare my life..."
Charlie burst into laughter.
"Well, there's always a price to pay for your actions in this world. You chose to be involved in this matter. So who are you to blame when things go wrong?" 3
Masatetsu pleaded, "As long as you do not kill me, I a m willing to avenge you, and I will help you kill Takahashi Machi in return!
"No need,” Charlie replied coldly.
"In my entire lifetime, amongst the few I despite the most are servants like you who would turn into a
traitor just for your own personal gain. You are screwed up, and you are going to die anyway. I would’ve at least considered you a man if only you were more loyal and had more integrity!” 5
"Look, your body is now as soft as mud. This does not fulfill the requirements of a Japanese ninja at all. Aren't all Japanese ninjas supposed to be full of forbearance and rigor? I will put you in the refrigerated carriage later to freeze you for a few hours. I guarantee you that you will be able to regain the toughness of a ninja then!" 3
"What?! You are going to freeze me?!" Masatetsu's face turned a ghastly white as he was in horror. He started pleading desperately. 3
"Sir, I beg you. I really don’t want to die. I don't want to die..."
He looked at the pedestrians standing at the side of the road, and he started screaming.
"Help! Please, help me!!!"
But Masatetsu suddenly realized that he did not only lose strength all over his body, but his voice had weakened too.
Although he was screaming at the top of his lungs, those who were standing more than two meters away from him would not be able to hear him at all. s
Isaac also ran over to them as he hurriedly asked Charlie, "Young master, what are your instructions?” 2
Charlie handed over a car key to him.
"There is a car parked at lot 094 in the basement.
There are two ninjas in the trunk. I want you to drive the car out and head to a safe place with the refrigerator truck. After that, transfer the men and that guy in the passenger seat into the refrigerator carriage. I want you to send these four ice sculptures t 0 the front gate of Takahashi Machi's house in Tokyo! Ask Machi to accept this delivery himself!"
