Chapter 246 - Chapter 234: Max the Great Thief

More than twenty days ago, Hunter was promised a reward by the Female Assassin Perkins.

So he went with her to Arizona in the US.

In a small Gobi town adjacent to the US-Mexico Border, they ambushed an Arms Dealer who was being escorted back to the country for protection by an elite Special Forces unit sent by the US Department of Defense.

At that time, because he was caught up in the killing, Hunter used a sniper rifle to kill the pilot of a helicopter sent by the US Department of Defense to provide support, causing the helicopter to crash.

This caused a huge sensation, and he and Perkins even had to flee to Mexico to stay for a while.

Later, Perkins returned to the US.

Hunter, however, was much more cautious because the one who killed that US Military helicopter pilot was none other than himself.

The Continental Hotel's side truly had influence everywhere.

When Hunter and Perkins had just fled to Mexico, Charon, the manager of the Los Angeles Continental Hotel, took the initiative to contact Hunter.

He asked Hunter carefully whether the pilot of that helicopter was truly killed by him.

After getting an affirmative answer from him, Charon guaranteed him that the hotel would help him settle this matter.

Of course, Hunter also needed to pay a price for this.

For instance, a considerable number of continental gold coins, conservatively estimated at no fewer than twenty.

Or alternatively, helping the Continental Hotel complete a commission for free.

At that time, Hunter had just joined the Continental Hotel for only a little over a month.

Although he had completed several commissions, he hadn't yet collected twenty continental gold coins.

Therefore, even though Cole gave Hunter different options,

In reality, he didn't have many choices at all!

Fortunately, after transmigrating, Hunter didn't have much of a sense of good and evil to begin with.

He didn't care about killing a few more people to complete the Continental Hotel's commission.

It was simply a matter of not getting paid!

As such, Hunter didn't have much resistance to Cole's request.

The Continental Hotel moved very quickly while Sam was still eating.

Hunter quickly took out his portable Continental Hotel laptop, connected it to the power, and turned it on.

Before long, the data on the target the hotel wanted him to deal with appeared on the computer screen.

After Hunter quickly skimmed through it, he promptly closed the laptop and began to seriously plan his next move.

By a stroke of luck, he discovered that the target the Continental Hotel had assigned him to eliminate was currently living in seclusion on Paradise Island.

The guy's name was Max. It was said that in his early years, he had roamed Europe and America, becoming a top-tier thief who successfully stole numerous treasures from the homes of many wealthy people and celebrities over the course of more than a decade.

In terms of fame, Max was far more famous than the gold thief Charlie Clock and his crew.

Supposedly, a year ago, Max had successfully stolen a treasure right from under the heavy protection of the FBI.

Afterward, he came to the Bahamas and eventually purchased a property on Paradise Island, where he lived a life of seclusion.

Over the past decade or so, Max had offended many people due to his thefts.

In particular, those from whom he stole expensive jewelry, diamonds, and antiques were all wealthy individuals and celebrities.

Consequently, some of them did not decide to let him go just because Max had retired.

Through the persistent investigations of some people, they finally tracked Max down.

Although there was no evidence to prove that Max was the legendary thief who had stolen their treasures,

Some of those wealthy people still spent money to contact the Continental Hotel.

They commissioned the Continental Hotel to send an assassin to deal with the thief suspected of stealing the jewelry and antiques they needed.

And according to the Continental Hotel's investigation, the Max currently living in seclusion on Paradise Island,

Was indeed the international thief of the past who had struck fear into countless wealthy Europeans and Americans, making them grit their teeth in hatred.

He quickly went through all the information he had just read in his mind.

Hunter couldn't help but feel a bit more emotional.

"I didn't expect the Continental Hotel's potential influence to be so vast."

"A US Military helicopter crashes, and if they say it's suppressed, it's suppressed."

"Moreover, they actually have their own intelligence collection network here in the Bahamas."

This made Hunter a bit more wary of the Continental Hotel.

Although because of his previous life, he had seen the plot of the john wick series,

Hunter indeed had a very high estimation of the Continental Hotel and the power of The High Table behind it.

However, those perceptions from his previous life were, after all, seen in movies.

Without real contact, even if Hunter didn't say it aloud, he was somewhat dismissive in his heart.

Now, the Continental Hotel had truly shown capabilities that made him look at them in a new light.

The data sent by the Continental Hotel was very detailed, including not only photos of the target but also his current address.

What interested Hunter was that the international thief named Max actually looked very similar to the Agent 007 who had co-starred with his favorite female action star, Michelle Yeoh, in the 007 series in his previous life.

It seemed he also came from some movie he might not have seen or whose plot he had forgotten.

However, Hunter didn't care at all.

Even the male protagonist from mr. & mrs. smith was now dead by his hand.

Killing one more didn't amount to much.

After memorizing the data and making a preliminary plan in his mind,

Hunter quickly returned to the bedroom where Sam was.

It was obvious that Sam was indeed hungry.

Although he had brought a simple meal, in just a short while, Sam had finished it all.

That Sexy Sweet Girl had even taken advantage of the time Hunter was away to go take a shower in the bathroom!

Hearing the sound of splashing water, he didn't have the thought of barging in to join her for a bath together.

He had worked Sam too hard last night; Hunter also knew the principle that too much is as bad as too little.

Well, at least until nightfall, he didn't plan on putting any more pressure on Sam.

After thinking for a bit, Hunter walked to the balcony and dialed the number Amanda had left him.

He prepared to give this woman, with whom he had once shared an 'in-depth exchange,' a kind reminder.

After the phone buzzed for a long time, Hunter finally heard the call connect.

Soon, Amanda's hurried voice came from the other side.

"You're crazy! I only asked you to teach Bryce a lesson, not to find someone to kill him!"

Yes, Jared's close friend Bryce had already been dealt with by Hunter.

Amanda and the others obviously knew the news of Bryce's murder by now.

However, although he knew Amanda probably wouldn't report him,

Hunter didn't plan on leaving any leverage with her.

So he spoke up: "I didn't kill him. Jared has a rival named Bates who has already set his sights on Jared."

"Be careful yourself. Bates has dozens of men under him, and they have weapons."

"Don't be too greedy. Take the hundred thousand us dollars I gave you and leave as soon as possible."

After delivering the kind reminder, Hunter promptly hung up the phone.

As for Amanda's side, she would have to fend for herself.

In any case, Hunter would clear out Bates before leaving the Bahamas.

Until then, he hoped she would be okay...
