28. Why did you kill her?

"Oh well... it's fine if you don't want to tell me," Cleo said.

"The vehicle before,

"Aaa… that… I made it using advanced technology and wind power."

"Did we teleport?" Lucas asked, stammering.

"Hm... No, that was just... em... my vehicle at full power. " Cleo said.

Is the technology in your organization that advanced? Lucas asked curiously.

How should I explain it? Not everyone in the organisation has the technology I'm using. Besides, I'm not sharing my things with them. " Cleo said. Maybe they also have technology that other people don't know about, but I'm not sure. I don't know them personally. Cleo said this while lying.

She can't just tell him things related to the organization, especially because her adoptive dad, Charles, is the owner of the organization. He might be in danger, and she doesn't want that to happen.

"But you are one of them." Lucas said he can't believe what she said about the organization not having the technology she has.

Things aren't like what you think. I haven't been bound to the organization for a long time. Perhaps it's been ten years...Cleo said. I work alone. That is why I became an assassin, an illegal doctor, and others to meet my needs. Shopping, traveling, clubbing, having fun, and many more. " She finished.

After the last mission that the organization gave her, she is no longer a killer that is bound to the organization.

"Do you also need a life like that?"

I'm a human, not a robot... I am also a normal person. I need food, and I also need to shop. If I don't need them, it's better for me to just die at that time. "

Lucas stood up from his seat while taking the beer glass that Cleo was holding.

"Including-" Lucas brought his face closer to Cleo's ear. "The sexy body of a man?" Cleo moved away when Lucas asked to whisper. "Like myself," Lucas said, trying to seduce Cleo.

Cleo pushed Lucas away. Even though she is an assassin, she is still a woman who will be tempted by the man in front of her, and she doesn't want that.

If she falls in love, the ones close to her will die.

"Don't seduce me." Cleo said, making Lucas chuckle.

"Why not? Was I wrong? You need a man in your life, "Lucas said flirtatiously."

He remembers what happened on the cruise ship.

"Emm... Do you know something about Velenosa? " Cleo asked, trying to change the subject.

Lucas, who realizes that Cleo is trying to change the subject, could only chuckle. He then gets up.

"Velenosa? What's that?" Lucas asked, frowning.

"Hm. It seems that you don't know what Velenosa is. Before meeting you, I had a mission to kill someone. It came from someone named Velenosa. But when I did my mission, I met five girls who killed my target. They also wanted to kill me. They have tattoos with the symbol Velen. " Cleo said. "I tried to find some information about Velenosa from the closest agent, but found nothing. Whether it is a new organisation or a third party, Cleo then tries to draw the tattoo she saw on a piece of paper so that she can show Lucas what the symbol looks like.

Lucas, who saw that for the first time, could only frown. He also doesn't know what the symbol means.

"Since you don't know, it's better if you don't know anything about it." Cleo said this while burning the paper on which she had previously drew.

"Are you the one who killed the woman at the club?" Lucas asked suddenly when he remembered the girl that was killed in the nightclub.

Cleo looks towards Lucas. "Yup." She answered. "I killed her." "Cleo I said while laying down on the bed.

For Lucas, the woman in front of him is brave enough to admit all the bad things she did that he asked her about. Including admitting that she was the one who killed the girl at the nightclub.

Lucas recalls what he saw. The woman's condition was so horrible. Laying down on the floor just like that with her stomach contents outside

"Why did you kill her?" Lucas asked, emotionally.

When Cleo looks at Lucas's face, it's clear that his emotions are unstable and he is angry. It is quite different from the cold face he usually shows Cleo.

"I never asked them the reason why they wanted to kill her." Cleo said while pouring some beer into Lucas's cup.

Lucas became silent. Indeed, Cleo never knows the reason why she must kill her targets. She only gets an order and does it. Then she will get paid.

"Why... why did you slit her stomach?" Lucas asked.

Cleo frowns. Didn't the forensic doctor find the reason why she slit the woman's stomach? She gets quiet for a moment.

I have to save what I must save. I can't kill someone who isn't my target. " Cleo said. "The woman was pregnant." Cleo said, making Lucas's eyes widen.
