“Why have you stopped recently? The target I gave you has not been eliminated. Didn’t you say that the traitor has a way to solve it?” The other party’s voice was impatient.

“Now that there is a problem, nothing is absolute.” Sloan is an old bird, and he is the leader of an assassin organization. Naturally, he is not frightened by the other party, even if the other party is impatient. “One of my pawns is missing, and I don’t know the specific situation, and the traitor has been wandering outside, so the people outside are now hidden, otherwise none of them will live.”

“We had an agreement back then. Now you’re doing nothing and completely affecting our plan.” The person on the phone obviously knows that he can’t do anything to Sloan, so he can only make his voice calmer, but the anxiety is still there.

“That system of yours hasn’t been developed yet? It’s been a few years. Didn’t you say you understood the destiny loom?” Sloan asked doubtfully.

“That’s different. The result we need is different from the Loom of Fate, so we need you to help us with the experiment. Some people need to stay, and others need to be dealt with. Don’t forget that we are paying.”

“You need to be alive to spend it. You know very well who Cross is. The target this guy targeted never survived, so we have to be absolutely careful. And his son became an assassin after training, an assassin with the same ability as him. But he disappeared. We don’t know the details yet. Maybe the two of them died together. Maybe he knows the truth, so we don’t dare to move now.”

“Do you need us to support you?”

“Your support may bring us new enemies. Don’t think that I don’t know about your situation. You are also hiding. Once a flaw appears, it will be devastating.”

“Okay, but I want you to be quick. It doesn’t matter if you spend more money, but you have to be efficient.”

“Sure, send some more money. I’m going to hire some ordinary killers. These guys can be used as cannon fodder.” Wesley was stunned when he heard this. Do I still need to hire people? That way, I’ll be passive. Since I almost know about Hydra, there’s no need for Sloan to stay, but does it seem like a lot of money will come?

“Okay, I will give you another hundred million dollars to solve the problem as soon as possible.”

“Don’t worry, as long as you get rid of Cross, those targets of yours won’t be a problem. You should be confident about that.” Then Sloan hung up and Wesley took out his phone and called his father.

“Are you ready?” Wesley asked directly.

“Yes, it’s ready. Mouse can’t be locked up for too long. I don’t know when we’ll move?” Carlos asked.

“Take a good rest tonight and make a move tomorrow morning. I’ll study the attack plan when I get back.” Wesley put down the phone directly. Now he needed to go back. He carefully observed his surroundings. All the cameras were high-definition, so he looked around very carefully.

He drove away and came back after a long detour. He observed again before driving back. Now he was careful.

“Why do you suddenly want to make a move? Is the source of funds clear?” Carlos asked.

“It’s not clear, but they’re working with an organization that has already confirmed it, and this organization has actually developed a software using their research on the Loom of Destiny. It’s just that it’s not clear what kind of results they want to calculate. It’s still in the experimental stage, and Sloan is providing convenience for their experiments. To put it bluntly, he’s helping them assassinate some test subjects. From this, it can be seen that the software they developed is to calculate people who are a threat to their organization.” Wesley poured a glass of water and drank it in one gulp.

“I see. Are we not going to pursue it?”

“No, this organization is very secretive. It should be lurking in a special organization, and they are afraid of being discovered. The other party wants to provide support to Sloan, but Sloan doesn’t dare to ask for it. It seems that these things are not something that the two of us can participate in, but there may be a chance in the future. For now, it’s better to solve our biggest problem.” With Hydra, there may be SHIELD. After all, Iron Man is about to appear.

“Well, now let’s talk about our plan…” Carlos wanted to say his plan, but Wesley interrupted him.

“Let me say it. Your plan is definitely not appropriate.” Wesley shook his head and rejected it without listening. “Are you thinking about letting me support you outside?”

“Yeah, after all, I’m more experienced, right?” Carlos asked doubtfully.

“That’s wrong. What I’ve been practicing is only my anti-strike ability, knife skills, and pistol. How much do you think I can learn in just six weeks? So, this time, I’m going to rush in to attack, and you need to use a sniper rifle to support me outside. I can’t do that,” Wesley said seriously. “Tomorrow morning, I’ll drive the garbage truck to the door, reverse it, crash in, and then release Mouse. At this time, I’ll park the front of the truck at the gate to protect myself to the best of my ability, but you have to cover me with a sniper rifle at this time.”

“After rats enter the textile factory, the bombs on their bodies can be killed on a large scale, and the glass here is basically gone. This is very beneficial to us and can play the effect of your long-range sniping. I have seen a lot of your past actions, and your marksmanship is definitely not a problem.”

Carlos shook his head. “No, it’s too dangerous for you. There’s a limit to where I can support you.”

“No, you know very well that what I said is correct. I have no use outside, and I know the people inside very well. I have fought with the most powerful guys. Don’t forget that my ability is the same as yours, and they are not my opponent. As long as I am not surrounded by them, it is okay. By the way, did you buy the grenades?”

“Yes, okay, you’re right. But try to fight close to the window.” Carlos is an assassin. He won’t argue with you. What’s right is right, and his son is grown up.

Was Wesley brave? He was certainly brave enough, but he knew very well that as long as Carlos was outside, he would not be in too much danger. Because if he died, none of the people inside would live. And he had Apple to help him, so it was easy to control his heartbeat. He could practice this later. After all, his father was beside him, and he could train himself perfectly.
