The assassin wanted to make certain that Ross would be relaxed and caught completely off guard.
Inside the room, Ross and Su Hanying were together.
The sounds coming from inside made it clear that Ross was not alone and was having a good time instead.
The two made love fiercely and long.
The assassin waited patiently.
He had no intention of interrupting them prematurely.
"Take your time," he silently thought.
"To me, the longer you relax, the easier it will be to kill you."
Time slowly passed.
The moon gradually moved across the sky.
Eventually, the darkness began to fade, and the first hint of dawn appeared on the horizon.
The assassin's eyes narrowed.
Now was the time.
His body moved.
Whoosh!
He transformed into a faint shadow and silently entered the room.
His movements were incredibly precise.
Not even the slightest sound was produced.
A dagger appeared in his hand.
The dagger itself looked ordinary, but its blade was coated with an extremely potent poison.
