His Cute Wife is a Little Crazy

Chapter 508 - HIDDEN CAMERAS

Akira faced the imposing man in the bedroom without fear. Her eyes were cold and unfeeling as she fired a bullet from her small gun. She had acquired the item and concealed it in one of the drawers in her nightstand for a quick draw. 

Unfortunately, the man moved fast and avoided the projectile despite his large size. She did not waver as he approached her with malicious intent. He was not holding a weapon in hand. Instead, he seemed more interested in obliterating her with her fists. 

However, Akira was not unprepared or helpless. 

She had a sword in her right hand, in addition to the gun in her left. Even though she could not move as smoothly and nimbly as before, she made up for it by using the two weapons together. Her quick sword slashes were ruthless. 

Unfortunately, the man did not seem fazed, even when she landed a cut on his lower arm. She swiped the sword again and cut at him. This time, he caught her sword in his hand. Akira tried to take it back, but the hold was too tight. 

She fired another shot and caught him in the shoulder. She intended to end the intruder by shooting him in the chest, but the man was crafty. He moved to a tricky angle which made it impossible for her to get a kill shot. 

He released the sword, allowing her to step back. 

When the fierce fight would have continued, Kaito came into the bedroom and landed a kick on Venom's abdomen. The force of the kick caused the man to stumble backwards, but he did not go down. It was clear that he was a tough man. 

Venom laughed in his gruff tone as he looked at Kaito. 

"I can understand why you would lock up the others like Lightning and Spider. But why did I also have to suffer too?" He asked, his deep voice sounding a little maniacal. 

Kaito narrowed his eyes as he stepped forward and shielded Akira behind him. She rolled her eyes, but she did not protest. Even though it might have taken a few more minutes, she was certain that she could deal with this intruder. 

"Do you believe that you did nothing wrong?" Kaito asked. 

"I will not claim to be a good person because none of us is. But I never killed innocent people or tortured my targets. I did not deserve to rot in prison with the rest of the psychos. Do you know how it feels to live with those disturbed creatures?" Venom sounded angry. 

"If you consider yourself to be the standard for a normal person, your actions are inexcusable. You are not unclear on what happened when you started revealing information to targets and taking bribes to set them free." Kaito responded.

Strictly speaking, Venom's actions were not disgusting like the other members of his team. However, he had caused a lot of harm because of his greed for money. Instead of taking out targets as required, he chose to think about the greatest profit for himself. 

If the target could offer more money, he would make a deal, instead of taking out targets. It would have been nothing if the targets were not true evil masterminds. However, they were the worst of the worst of the worst, without hope for redemption. 

One of the people Venom set free went ahead to bomb an entire school out of spite because he suspected the principal was the one who sent the assassin. The story was tragic for countless people, and Kaito could not condone it. 

Naturally, he had to mete out punishment. 

He had thought of killing Venom directly, but he decided to make him an example. Before he was sent into the pit, Kaito personally demonstrated what would happen to those who decided to take matters into their own hands in an attempt to earn more. 

"Some might consider me a hero for not taking a life. I saved those people. Who knows if some of them changed?" Venom was unapologetic. 

Kaito laughed. "Perhaps, if you believed your own words, it might matter. But I will send you off with the reassurance that I hunted down every single person you claim you saved. I am sure they will remember your good acts on the other side." 

"It depends on whether you have the ability to…" Venom started. 

A gunshot rang in the air as Akira shot the man in the head from behind Kaito. The wound was not visible, but Venom fell like a broken doll. Akira stepped out and looked at the body before blowing on the muzzle of her small gun. 

Kaito looked at her with a smile and a hint of helplessness. 

"What?" Akira asked. "I could not stand listening to the meaningless drivel anymore. I would rather go back to sleep." 

Kaito laughed and rubbed lightly on Akira's head. Even when she was being silly or murderous, she was still his most adorable darling. He could not help but love her a little more when he faced her after the ordeal. Unfortunately, he needed to clean up the scene. 

"Rest for a moment while I clean up. I suspect that these people might have hidden cameras on their bodies." Kaito said with narrowed eyes. 

Akira nodded before sitting on the bed. She did not want to sleep in this room because it felt contaminated. Plus, it had the strong scent of blood which made her a little nauseated. 

As Kaito removed Venom from the bedroom, her phone pinged. She checked the messages and found it was Hu Lei.

[The attack was streamed on Watch. Do you want Vlad to move up the meeting? The situation looks a little dangerous.]

Akira frowned before she responded. 

[It is about three weeks according to the original plan. I need to handle things with ISB before the meeting.]

She wanted to make sure that the Immortal Sword Brigade would be available to capture the people handling Watch in one fell swoop. If they rushed with the meeting with Vlad, the app developers might become suspicious. 

[Cool. Let me know if you need help.]

Akira put away the phone with a smile.
