The wolf spider checked the surroundings again but couldn't find the source of the previous attack.
Personally, he was most interested in investigating the unexpected cause, but as a highly skilled professional killer, he forced himself to focus on completing the mission.
As mentioned before, today was the deadline for him to complete the mission. However, Plan A did not succeed, and now he had to find a way to kill the target effectively.
Although the wolf spider didn't pay much attention to the unfamiliar man, Watanabe Gengo, his professional habits prevented him from directly attacking the target. Instead, he took out the backup tools he carried with him.
At that moment, Watanabe Gengo dialed the emergency phone number.
The wolf spider couldn't hear what Watanabe Gengo was saying, but he knew he didn't have much time left and had to resolve the situation before the police arrived.
"What a mess. Such an easy target has put me in this miserable situation."
The wolf spider fastened his dagger in the holster on his waist and took out a blowpipe with one hand while loading a silver needle with the other. Using the overturned truck as cover, he aimed at his first target, Koga Shi Yi.
"Significant blood loss, critical condition. Start with the easiest target to kill."
Within the limited shooting angle options, the wolf spider finally fixed his aim on Koga Shi Yi's neck.
Silently, a silver needle shot from the blowpipe and accurately hit the artery on Koga Shi Yi's neck.
"The next target...huh?"
The wolf spider noticed that the stranger, Watanabe Gengo, immediately discovered the shot silver needle and quickly removed it from Koga Shi Yi's neck.
This assassination, which should have gone unnoticed, unexpectedly...
The wolf spider, always calm and composed, wavered.
It was only at this moment that he began to take this disabled stranger seriously. In the wolf spider's past experiences, all his prey, from being shot by a silver needle to dying from poison, had not noticed the presence of the needle.
Yet, this man...
"What kind of person is he?"
Doubt, confusion, and anxiety began to ferment in the wolf spider's mind, making his usually calm technique become restless.
In order to kill Koga Shi Yi effectively, the wolf spider continuously blew several silver needles, but the stranger also responded by using the truck doors scattered on the ground as a shield, successfully blocking his deadly silver needles.
"What...what should I do..."
After doubt, confusion, and anxiety, fear appeared in the wolf spider's heart.
Although this fear was still very small, it had taken root within the wolf spider.
Thereby, when the stranger handed the shield to two children and slowly limped towards the wolf spider with only a broken glass shard in hand, that tiny fear began to swell.
In the wolf spider's eyes, this man, with just a small shield and a disabled leg, was an easy target, moving at an extremely slow pace...
However.
When the wolf spider switched his target from Koga Shi Yi to this stranger, all the silver needles aimed at vulnerable areas were blocked. And those silver needles that hit areas the hands, feet, and defenses couldn't reach, although they hit, they couldn't penetrate beneath the skin, remaining shallowly lodged.
The man's muscularity is so strong that it prevents the spider's silver needle from piercing through.
The fear in the depths of his heart spreads uncontrollably.
- To complete the mission, the priority is to get rid of this man...
With this thought, the spider did not choose to create distance, but instead waited patiently for the arrival of Watanabe Gengo, drawing a dagger from his belt.
- The target's movements are slow, one strike should be enough to finish him off.
