Onyx Rose was sitting in his study and a middle aged man dressed in black clothes was sitting before him. His face was as pale as milk, and his eyes were brimming with some maniacal spark. Onyx Rose spoke in a soft tone, "Master Night, I apologize for calling you over at such a short notice." The middle-aged man waved his hand and said, "You do not have to apologize like this, Sir Rose. We have been business partners for a long time. You can tell me all that you are worried about, as long as the price is right, I will help you." Onyx Rose nodded and said, "A man named Hao Ren caused the death of five of my family members. I hope you can kill that man and all his family members as well." Night smiled widely and said, "I will help you avenge with pleasure, but can you tell me how many people are we exactly talking about here?" In their eyes, Hao Ren was a normal human who used the technological means to get the best of them. But what they did not know was that even now, Hao Ren was listening to them. Yes, Xiao Mei was now monitoring the Rose family very closely. After a few minutes, Master Night left the place, and the young man from the meeting earlier came in holding a tray filled with medicine. Onyx looked at him and sighed as he said, "Silvester, I did not mean to be so hard on you in the meeting room." Silvester shook his head and replied, "I don't mind that, Great Grandpa. It was right of you to do so, because, even if we have disputes among ourselves, it is not up to some outsider to come in and point fingers at us. Let alone killing our family members." The old man sighed and said, "If only the others also understood this." Silvester nodded and then he asked, "I apologize for asking, but why did you call Master Night? Can he really do what the Alpha Blade could not?" Onyx Rose nodded calmly and said, "Master Night is a man who can bring dead back to life, or even set ghosts out to hunt the people. His methods are horrible but they are sure to work." ... Hao Ren received a flag from Xiao Mei and she played the conversation for him. The young man took a deep breath and said, "Since they have decided to set a necromancer to deal with me, I must not allow them to get ahead. It would be tricky to deal with this guy if he managed to come here and attack." Xiao Mei replied, "Boss, all this while we have been facing attacks and these people do not let us catch a break. Your wedding is just three weeks later. How are you going to handle it if you are worried about the enemies lurking in the shadows?" Hao Ren thought about it and said, "Can you locate this guy called Night?" Xiao Mei replied, "I already have his address down to the Zip Code." The young man was surprised and asked, "What about the unaccounted children of the Rose Family?" Xiao Mei replied, "Damon had a mistress who gave birth to a daughter seventeen years ago. Damon was just a young teenager then. Talk about being a debauchee." Hao Ren sighed and said, "I will go cook a meal for Lingshi and tell her that I will make a three day shopping trip to the Stag Nation." Xiao Mei nodded and said, "I will get the process sorted, and also, we should fly chartered. It saves time." Hao Ren closed his eyes, took a deep breath and then replied, "You do not have to state the obvious, but I do not want Night to anywhere. I wish to kill him their." Xiao Mei replied, "That can be arranged, I can simply leave his passport invalid. He would not be able to go anywhere, while you can enter the Stag Nation unnoticed, and I will cover you." Hao Ren replied, "You are a genius." Xiao Mei replied, "I am aware." The young man boarded the plane and on the other side, Xiao Mei blocked Master Night, who was ready to fly over to the Han Nation. Hao Ren did not wish to kill these people when they come to his home, because that would bring a lot of scrutiny from the world media. Things were different in the Stag Nation, Rose Family was a celebrity but they did not get the media attention at home. The darkest place was under the lamp. After ten hours of flying, Hao Ren reached the Burmont City airport. He got down, went through the immigration and then left the airport. Xiao Mei had arranged for a car rental and it was a black Hornet Wisp. The model and the performance were similar to the white one that Hao Ren had, so it would be easy for him to drive it. After from the driving lane change the rest was fine. Xiao Mei asked, "Boss, where do you want to go?" Hao Ren replied, "To the location where the child is." Xiao Mei replied, "The Burberry bar, that is where she works as a waitress." Hao Ren nodded and using the navigation he moved quickly. The time difference has shifted and it was still just the breakfast hours in the Stag Nation. The young man came at the right time, he was hungry. After parking the car, he tapped his card on the parking toll machine and paid for six hours, just to be safe. He placed an earpiece in his ear and said, "Xiao Mei, is she here at the moment?" Xiao Mei replied, "Yes, she is inside, and her information is..." Hao Ren was at the door of the bar when he said, "You sure are thorough in your job Xiao Mei. I am proud of you." Xiao Mei replied, "Please give me the chance to say the same thing boss." Hao Ren felt pain in his heart from the snide remark once again. With a deep breath he pushed open the door and went inside the bar. The place was dimly lit, but some rock and roll music was playing in the background. A few people were having breakfast, while Hao Ren headed for the Bar counter. His arrival did attract a lot of attention, after all, an Han Native did not come to such places daily. Hao Ren nodded and greeting everyone, and sat down on the barstool, when a young lady asked him from the other side of the corner, "Hi, good morning, what can I get you?" Hao Ren looked at her face and with a smile he replied, "Good morning, I would like a glass of iced lemon tea, and a vegetable sandwiches, thank you." The lady replied with a professional smile as she said, "It will be a few minutes." Hao Ren nodded and waited, he wanted to talk, but abruptness was not going to help, patience was the key.
