Bab 216: Night Operations (2)

"Is there any assassination's request?" Nan Hua asked softly.

"Yes. There are several of them."

"Show me."

Nan Hua took the bamboo strips from Fei Mao and read the content. There were several people who wanted for Official Du to step down because he and his guards had wronged them several times. But because of their weak position, they couldn't win against him and could only resort to ask for assassination request.

"Why is this not picked up?" Nan Hua asked.

"The request is not only to kill Official Du but also the guards who follow him. Those guards are quite powerful and their number are a lot. The reward from this mission is not much," Fei Mao reported truthfully.

As assassins, they certainly needed to have certain skills and confidence before doing their mission. In the case like this where the opponent was powerful while the price was considerably low, there were not many people who would want to step forward.
