When they arrived at the front of the manor, the men had already bought breakfast for a while.
Chen Ge and Takuya were sitting face to face on either side of the table, still analysing the matter as they ate their breakfast.
But compared to the Futaba family, the inside of the Kawauchi family was now in a complete mess.
Kawauchi Ryuuya had not closed his eyes all night, sitting on the wooden chair in his room. His eyes were glued to the mobile phone clutched in his hand.
The last message on it was from Endo last night, saying that he had entered the manor and had found Chen Ge, and was looking for a time to strike.
It had been nearly ten hours and Ryugu Kawauchi was feeling increasingly uneasy, he even suspected that his two most powerful captains had lost their hands, but he couldn't believe it.
After all, he knew very well the strength of Endo and Izumo. Fighting together, both of them were capable of plunging across the terrorist organisation's hub and silently taking out the organisation's leader, and assassinating a Chen Ge would simply be a breeze.
Either of them could have done it, it was just that Ryugu Kawauchi was worried. That was why they had joined together to carry it out.
But now ten hours had passed without any news coming back, and as much as he believed in Endo and Izumo's strength, the facts were in front of him, and he wouldn't have been so anxious to receive even a single text message that the mission had failed.
"Snap!" Suddenly, the door to the room was pushed open.
"Any news?" Kawauchi Ryugu jerked up from his wooden chair and shouted.
"Group leader, not yet." In came the other captain, Kawauchi Tenkata.
"What do you mean, you guys can't pry at all?" Kawauchi Ryugu instantly frowned, gripping his phone tightly as he questioned in a low voice.
"It's not that we didn't try. But the people I planted around the Futaba clan haven't gotten any leads at all, and since Captain Endo and Captain Izumiza went in, only one person has come out of their clan to buy breakfast in the past ten hours."
"We don't dare to get too close either, once the other side finds out, our operation will fail."
Tian Fang said helplessly, he too wanted to go in and pry, but reason told him he wasn't allowed to, Endo and Izumo had already lost contact, if he broke again then I'm afraid there would be no way out.
"Did you hear anything after Endo and Izumizo went in?" Kawauchi Ryugu asked, somewhat helplessly, knowing the situation he was talking about.
"That's not true, we were guarding the entrance on your orders, Team Leader, and the two of them entered from the side of the manor. We couldn't hear anything at all, we don't even know when they moved."
Tenkata shook his head.
"Fuck, two of our Kawauchi family assassins acting at the same time. Assassinating a Chen Ge, it's amazing that they would both lose their whereabouts, even if they were discovered. Even if they had to face all the hitmen in the Futaba clan, they would always have a chance to pass on a message!"
Kawauchi Ryugu was so angry that even his body was shaking uncontrollably, and after a moment he slammed his hand out hard and roared.
The phone snapped to the ground, the screen and body shattering all over the place.
It startled Tian Fang, who was standing below, and he couldn't help but take two steps backwards, while keeping his head down, not daring to speak.
"It's really strange, the titular two assassins can just disappear into the Futaba family's estate?!" Kawauchi Ryugu was so angry that he laughed coldly.
"Does it mean that there are still experts in their family?" Tian Fang asked tentatively.
"How is that possible. If they had an expert in the Futaba family, they wouldn't have fallen to this level, and before they made a move on Feihuo. We did investigate in detail, there were just some fighters trained by the family." Kawauchi Ryugu shook his head.
Now in this situation, he knew that Endo and Izumo had most likely been broken in the Futaba clan, but he just couldn't figure out how this was happening, how the Futaba clan could have this kind of strength.
Kawauchi Ryugu couldn't figure it out even if he thought about it.
"This is indeed a bit strange. It stands to reason that with Endo and Izumo being so strong, there shouldn't be a problem, is there something else hidden?" Tenfon continued to ask.
"That's not known. But don't let up for a moment, do everything you can to pry inside the manor, both Endo and Izumizo, live and let die, I can't let two of our family's top killers just disappear without a trace!"
Kawauchi Ryugu shuddered and took a deep breath. He suppressed the news for now.
And he dreaded to think what the consequences would be once the patriarch found out about the news, which would be a great weakening to the entire family's strength. It would be more than a matter of time to train two more assassins this strong.
"So is the outside still guarded?" Tian Fang inquired.
"Guard, I'll send another squad to take over your shift, you do whatever you can to spy for me, if you can get Endo and Izumo out, I'll let you take the position of deputy leader of the assassin group!" Kawauchi Ryugu pondered for a moment and said.
"Understood!" A smile immediately appeared on Tian Fang's face.
"Then go back first, I need to be alone!" Kawauchi Ryugu sat down on the chair with his buttocks, his eyes letting go as he looked up at the ceiling.

After breakfast, Chen Ge did not go back to rest, but went to Feishuo's place.
"I just received a message from the War Department. It says that there is still a week to go before the Special Forces Competition, so let's go over there." As soon as Chen Ge entered the door, Fei Shuo spoke up.
"Then let's go back. Seven days isn't long enough, we can't go back the day before the competition." Chen Ge nodded his head, Fei Shuo had called him over. He already knew what it was about.
"But I'm worried that once I leave the manor those people will still come looking for trouble, I don't want to hold you back." FeiShu said softly as both hands squeezed the corners of his shirt, "And I think the Kanagawa family and the Kawauchi family, will come together to look for trouble."
"I will protect you." Chen Ge said faintly.
"I know, but I ......" Feishu nodded, she knew Chen Ge would protect her, but protection was one thing, dragging was another.
"When are you going back?" Chen Ge interrupted her and asked.
"This afternoon, I think, the notice from the War Department is for us to show up and register, then explain the events and times of the competition, and we can't leave until the competition is over." Fishy's voice became normal as she got down to serious business.
"Then let's pack up and get ready to go." Chen Ge didn't hesitate and immediately agreed.
"Mm." Fei Shuo didn't say anything more, she knew that she was definitely going to the Special Forces Competition, not only was she the youngest daughter of the Futaba family, but she was also the female soldier king of the Japanese War Department, and was the one who had to achieve good results for the Japanese War Department.
