Chapter 180: Some Fields Aren’t Suited for Women

Dead men neither lie nor can they pretend.

The female assassin arrived at the police investigation unit to silence witnesses, and after failing her mission, she took her own life.

Thus, the Assassin Group must have known that their communication devices were compromised.

They will be even more cautious from now on.

It will become even harder to track them down.

But… Xiao Yu sneered coldly.

Unfortunately, they left behind one… significant clue.

What clue?

The deceased female assassin!

Training a woman to become an assassin is simply not something that can be accomplished quickly.

Sometimes, women can excel even more than men in certain fields.

But in some specialized areas, a woman’s abilities really don’t measure up to a man’s.

Take soldiers, police officers, mercenaries, or hand-to-hand combat roles for example…

Any profession that involves combat or poses a risk of injuring others.

What do the gender ratios look like?

Of course, if you force the issue.

Much like in the realm of childbirth.

In this lifetime, a man can never outrank a woman!

So…

If you want to train a woman to perform like a man in these specialized fields…

It would take at least two to five times more time, money, manpower, or resources.

This is widely acknowledged and backed by real data.

If the person is ordinary, there’s no need.

So why train a woman when you could save time and effort by training a man?

For example… the assassin profession!

Not to mention that using beauty to seduce and lure isn’t that effective.

This isn’t a movie filled with gorgeous female assassins.

Beauty is always a useful weapon against men, but it isn’t infallible.

In the realm of assassination, situations where beauty pays off are too few—it just isn’t worth it.

The point remains the same.

Yet the Assassin Group insisted on training a female assassin.

Isn’t that peculiar?

Guan Yue, female, 24 years old, native of City G… grew up in an orphanage!

This was confirmed through facial recognition analysis using big data.

Just as Xiao Yu had suspected—the female assassin is local.

How could he have been so accurate?

It was due to her ‘Language Expert’ ability.

Xiao Yu had once spoken with the female assassin.

If she were a foreigner raised abroad,

her accent would inevitably show traces of foreign habits; her Mandarin wouldn’t be this polished.

Moreover, the female assassin’s speech even carried a slight local dialect tone.

At that moment, domestic records on the female assassin were also retrieved.

All the evidence provided yet another explanation.

Guan Yue had received some assassin training within the country.

And by tracking the Assassin Group’s communication devices,

they deduced that the group was hidden within the nation.

When multiple clues come together and are reexamined, one conclusion stands out:

Pursue the lead of the female assassin long enough, and finding the Assassin Group is only a matter of time.

Of course, it’s uncertain if they’ll flee abroad before we catch them.

At the very least, we can drive them out of the country…

Would Xiao Yu be willing to accept that?

Absolutely not; his system task would remain incomplete.

He also knew the Assassin Group wouldn’t dare to run.

Why?

If they fled overseas, abandoning the country,

why go through the hassle of sending a female assassin to silence people?

The police aren’t even sure of these assassins’ identities from the clues they have.

After they escape the country, who could possibly track them down?

Sending an assassin here only indicates one thing:

There must be something in this country they absolutely cannot let go of!

……

City G, at a certain children’s welfare center.

Xiao Yu stood eyeing the expansive compound in front of him, taking in the five-story building.

What is called a children’s welfare center was once just an orphanage.

And in most people’s minds,

an orphanage usually has an elderly headmistress and a bunch of adorable children.

The old lady nurtures the kids, and later they repay her kindness…

Alas, those were only fairy tale notions.

In reality, a children’s welfare center is run by staff caring for the children.

And most of these children are abandoned, orphaned, or disabled…

The female assassin Guan Yue grew up in this very welfare center.

A cold smile tugged at Xiao Yu’s lips.

At just 24, Guan Yue had become a truly terrifying assassin.

With her bare-handed combat skills,

ordinary people were nothing more than livestock—cattle and sheep waiting to be slaughtered, utterly helpless!

As everyone knows,

it takes three to four years to train a competent soldier.

0… Seeking accolades… 0

It takes four to five years to train a competent police officer.

So how many years does it take to mold a truly formidable assassin?

According to investigations,

Guan Yue left the orphanage at eighteen, skipped college, and began working to support herself.

Can six years really transform a woman into a masterful martial artist and a deadly assassin?

No, not really—it wasn’t even six years ago.

Based on information from the dark web, three years ago the ‘Cards Assassin 3’ was suspected of killing people overseas.

Oddly, domestic immigration records show no sign of Guan Yue ever leaving the country.

This implies that Guan Yue might have another identity.

Let’s set that aside for now and focus on assassin training.

Assume that the ‘Cards Assassin 3’ seen overseas three years ago is indeed Guan Yue.

…………….

Then, was it possible that from the time she left the orphanage at eighteen, someone spent only three years training her into an assassin?

An assassin so dangerous that even someone like Xiao Yu—with his extraordinary abilities—would feel threatened?

Is that even possible?

That’s why Xiao Yu has come to this children’s welfare center…

……

“Hello, how may I help you?”

In the welfare center’s lobby, a young receptionist rose and greeted Xiao Yu with a professionally warm smile.

Her eyes, however, stayed locked on Xiao Yu’s face without a single blink.

Xiao Yu was used to the admiring stares from all these girls.

Jokingly, the receptionist said, “Little brother, with that face, if you didn’t do a smoky eye, wear eye contacts, and a wig to play a millionaire web broadcaster, it’s such a waste!”

At that moment, Xiao Yu nearly felt the urge to undergo plastic surgery…

“I don’t need anything, officer.”

Flashing his badge, Xiao Yu smiled at the startled receptionist. “I have a case that requires investigation here; please have your management call over the welfare center staff responsible. Thank you.”

“Ah? Alright, please wait a moment!”

The receptionist paused for a moment before picking up the phone at the front desk.

About five minutes later,

a middle-aged man descended from upstairs, looking puzzled as he eyed Xiao Yu. “May I help you?”

“Her… Do you know her?”

Raising his hand, Xiao Yu produced a photo.

It was a photo of the female assassin Guan Yue! And…
