From Resident Evil to becoming a gacha god

The document included a photo of the hostage, a young girl who looked older than her age.

After Xiao Miao finished reading the authorization document, the system panel automatically displayed the task information:

[Killer commission detected: 96-hour international rescue operation, accept?]

【whether】

Setting aside the panel information for the time being, Xiao Miao racked his brains to recall the movies he had seen in his previous life. He felt that this request was very familiar, but he couldn't remember the specific details for the time being.

Seeing Xiao Miao's silence, Charon sighed and said, "The reward for this mission is indeed not very good. One gold coin plus 10 US dollars, and it's a cross-border mission. Nobody wants to do a losing business, so I downgraded it to see if any newcomers would be willing to take it. You said you wanted to make a big splash, that's why I contacted you..."

"I need to see the client," Xiao Miao said.

To determine whether it's a movie plot or not, just check if the people involved have the "fate dice"—it's simple and straightforward.

Charon paused for a moment, then regained his composure as a lobby manager, nodded gracefully, and stood up: "Okay, Mr. Smith, please wait a moment."

Ten minutes later, a man wearing a leather jacket, with an old and haggard face, walked into the Continental Hotel and sat down opposite Xiao Miao, led by Charon.

"As expected of a character from the story!"

Xiao Miao calmly observed the other person. The aged face looked very familiar, and long-buried memories surfaced. He finally recalled the corresponding movie plot.

Taken!

It seems to be the first one!

The film involves a large-scale criminal gang and the underground trading system of French elites, with a wide scope and considerable influence.

Okay, I'll accept this commission!

Xiao Miao had been keeping an eye on the menu for the past few days, but unfortunately there were very few missions available for newcomers. Using Hurricane Rescue as his debut mission wasn't too bad.

The man named Brian seemed very uncomfortable with the environment of the Continental Hotel. When he sat down, he subconsciously looked around as if the assassins around him might shoot him in the back.

Brian's reaction is not surprising, given his pre-retirement identity, which is both incompatible with and ambiguous with that of an assassin.

He's a CIA agent!

Before retiring, Brian considered himself a righteous person who would risk his life for national security and fought on the most dangerous front lines for many years. He despised killers as creatures without faith.

Or perhaps the hitmen in mainland hotels only believe in money; in their hearts, the country is no different from a toilet.

Ironically, when his daughter was kidnapped by gangsters in a foreign country, he immediately sought help from his powerful former boss, who dismissed Brian with a dismissive remark that "the CIA has no transnational law enforcement authority."

The CIA may not have transnational law enforcement authority, but if it really wanted to save people, it would be a simple matter of saying a word. The other side is France, not a rabbit or a bear!

Helpless, Brian could only find the last gold coin he had left from his time as a black-market figure, add all his retirement savings, and go to the Continental Hotel to ask the assassin he once despised for help.

Compared to his daughter's safety, his own old face was nothing.

However, as the saying goes, the assassins' faith is money. One gold coin plus 1 US dollars is required to complete a cross-border hostage rescue and face an unknown number of gangsters. No one is willing to take on this commission that is destined to lose money.

Only the assassin before us...

Brian's gaze fell on Xiao Miao, his first impression being that he was young!

Too young!

He's younger than my daughter, right? Is this kind of killer really reliable?

Judging by his physique, he doesn't look like someone who can fight...

It wasn't that Brian was judging people by their appearance, but that's just how the assassin profession is; older assassins are often very skilled because newbies don't last that long.

But he had no choice, because only Xiao Miao was willing to take the job, and his daughter was in imminent danger, so he had to use every resource at his disposal.

So what if he's a rookie? We can send him to assassinate gang members and divert their attention.

After a quick thought, Brian slowly began, "Hello, I'm the one who commissioned the mission. I heard you wanted to see me."

"Yes." Xiao Miao picked up her cola and drank it all in one gulp, then stood up and urged, "Let's not delay, let's get going."

Brian's eyes bulged: "You called me here just to set off with me?"

"That's right, you're in such a hurry, I bet you've already prepared a private jet to fly directly to Paris, right? I'll hitch a ride."

Brian's forehead veins throbbed, and his lips pursed slightly: "That's right, but these things can be discussed over the phone!"

"Stop hesitating, let's act now!"

Brian nodded helplessly upon hearing this, wondering if he had made a bad move because he was too concerned.

Now that things have come to this, we can only rely on the professionalism of mainland hotels.

Xiao Miao registered and received the commission from Charon, and the system panel was updated accordingly. The two walked out of the mainland hotel together and drove to the airport.

Brian's wife had remarried, taking their daughter with her. The private jet was arranged by his stepfather at the last minute, and unsurprisingly, it crashed due to the short notice.

My stepfather's company ran into some problems, which greatly diminished its influence. The transoceanic flight plan got stuck in the review process, and the French side claimed that they had already finished get off work and no one could get them to work overtime.

Stepfather is definitely unreliable!

Brian was extremely anxious, pacing around trying to find another flight. Xiao Miao rolled her eyes and pushed Brian into the car with one hand.

"What are you doing? Wow, you're really strong!"

Xiao Miao rolled his eyes: "Go back to the Adventurers' Guild. I have a way to get to Paris."

What is the Adventurers' Guild?

......

The two returned to the hotel on the mainland. Xiao Miao found Charon and took out a gold coin: "I need a direct flight to Paris, immediately."

Charon put away the gold coins: "The flight can take off at any time, Mr. Smith, Mr. Brian. Have a pleasant journey."

Xiao Miao nodded, his expression showing no surprise whatsoever.

When it comes to providing high-quality service at any time, mainland hotels are still the most reliable. Stepfather, you should learn from them.

Turning around, Xiao Miao saw Brian staring straight at him, his gaze complex and somewhat eerie.

"You..." Brian opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.

His mission only required one gold coin, and Mr. Smith spent it in the blink of an eye just to get to Paris as quickly as possible...

What's in it for?

A young but wealthy assassin—could the target be a second-generation killer?

Is there such a thing as a "second-generation rich kid" in the assassin profession?

"What are you looking at?"

"Uh, it's nothing." Brian suppressed his doubts. He could ask questions after they rescued his daughter.

The two arrived at the airport in a private car. A Gulfstream G550 was already ready, with its turbofan engines running under its wings, carrying the two and crew into the night sky.

On the plane, Brian handed Xiao Miao the intelligence he had prepared, including brief information about the Albanian mafia and a recording of his daughter's phone call before she was kidnapped.

With so little information, it was impossible to deduce the specific content, but Xiao Miao was once again triggered by a sense of déjà vu, recalling many scenes from the movie.

Brian played the recording over and over again, trying to memorize the kidnapper's voice, while Xiao Miao lay beside him with her eyes closed, trying to recall the movie plot as she did.

In the original story, Brian's daughter Kim and her companion were targeted as soon as they arrived in Paris. The gang arranged for a handsome man to approach them, and the two were captivated by the atmosphere of the romantic city. Without any suspicion, they were tricked into revealing a lot of information and ended up with two sacks of burlap.

Her best friend was drugged and forced into prostitution. Jin, being a virgin, escaped this ordeal for the time being. Because of her higher value, she was sold by the gang to an underground auction house for the wealthy and powerful to defile.

Reality is not a movie. Jin's exact location still needs further investigation. Xiao Miao has not learned professional skills such as tracking and searching, but he understands the general plot and has his own methods.

The plane was going to be in the air for 7 hours. Xiao Miao went into the private cabin to rest and recharge. When they were about to land, he stretched comfortably and walked into the cabin. He found that Brian's eyes were red and swollen, obviously because he hadn't slept all night.

Alas, the hearts of parents are always full of love and worry.

During the plane's descent, Brian suggested splitting up, with him investigating the clues alone and calling Xiao Miao when they went to investigate.

Xiao Miao had the same idea and readily agreed, and the two parted ways.

Xiao Miao turned into the Paris Continental Hotel, only to find that many of the hotel staff were Albanian, so he turned back out.

Plan A, which involved directly purchasing intelligence, failed, but that's not a big problem; he still has Plan B.

.........

Pigalle district, Pigalle Place, one of Paris's most famous red-light districts.

It's early morning now, and the busy girls who worked all night are taking a break. The square is mostly filled with tourists.

Xiao Miao spotted a pair of girls traveling together, silently apologized, and with a sly smile, forced his way between them, wrapping his arms around their waists.

"Hey girls, wanna earn some extra cash?"
