Chapter 128

The manager of a popular idol was tragically killed at home last night.

As a result, the news didn't even make it into the newspapers because it was deemed worthless.

Even if rumors circulate, most people who hear them simply don't care.

Because people dying in Kazimierz is all too common.

Even those who have received the title of knight will 'die miserably' at home the next day once they are no longer of use. This is nothing new, let alone a mere agent.

In the end, it was Centaurea who appeared and personally delivered the obituary.

First, she expressed her deep regret and then said that this incident had greatly affected her, so Centaurea planned to rest for three days before finding a new agent.

The fans were naturally filled with wails of despair.

However, the Commercial Federation and the Unarmored Alliance were not idle either.

After all, that agent was, in a way, a pawn in their game.

Even after they turned the agent's house upside down and tortured the servants, they still couldn't get any useful information.

Besides knowing that the agent was also killed with a single blow, and that the same person likely caused the same mistake as the Unarmored Alliance—

They even ransacked the house... no, they took stock of the agent's assets and found that nothing had been touched, and the Centaurea was still penniless.

So what can we do?

Besides reluctantly seizing the agent's assets, all they could do was send more people to keep a close watch on Centaurea's every move.

At the same time, the level of danger in Centaurea will be reassessed to determine whether a second assassination mission should be carried out.

The result is:

The next day, an independent knight died; the cause of death was a single fatal blow.

On the third day, one of the company's employees died; the cause of death was still a fatal blow.

The same methods, the same cause of death, and the deceased's status was getting higher and higher.

In this situation, the Commercial Federation members finally started to panic.

Fearing they would be next to die, they summoned the members of the Unarmored Alliance back overnight.

The mission of the Unarmored Alliance also changed from monitoring Centaurea to protecting the safety of the Commercial Federation.

And what is Centaurea, the culprit behind all this, doing now?

The answer is that Centaurea stayed in her small, run-down rental apartment for three whole days.

I'm too lazy to comb my hair or put on makeup.

Even after confirming that the Unarmored Alliance members had left, Centaurea didn't even bother to put on her clothes.

She was only wearing a loose white T-shirt that covered her thighs, and she was lying on the bed, swinging her fair little feet and playing on her phone.

"I see."

While admiring the benefits offered by the Centaurea, Chen Ran suddenly realized, "Instead of a quick and easy solution like killing your whole family, little guy, your main strategy is to keep them on edge, making them live in fear, afraid that they will be the next to die. You're killing them and destroying their spirit, right?"

Centaurea: "..."

Centaurea wanted to say that Chen Ran was slandering her; she was just lazy and not that scheming.

But after shaking her fluffy horse ears, Centaurea rolled over and decided to pretend she hadn't heard.

In the end, Chen Ran spoke up again, "Little guy, you only took 3 days off. Tomorrow you'll have to go back to being your little idol, singing and dancing."

These words successfully broke down the defenses of the seemingly deaf and dumb Centaurea.

She stopped playing on her phone and buried her face in the pillow. "So annoying... I don't want to go to work... Why doesn't anyone give me money for free?"

"Murder, ransacking property, you just don't want to do it yourself."

Chen Ran said, "But if I give you money for free, wouldn't that be another way of saying 'sugar baby'?"

"Being kept? Ha... there's no such thing as a free lunch."

Centaurea said in a muffled voice, "If I dare to say that, I'll be packed up and sent to someone else's bed tonight. Those nobles are all disgusting, none of them are normal."

"A normal person?"

Chen Ran thought for a moment and said, "Hey, I actually know one."
