The next morning, in the hotel guest room.
Perkins was checking the firearms Hunter had brought. Although she wasn't like some assassins who were stubborn enough to only use a certain weapon and rarely changed them,
she still paid attention to whether a firearm felt comfortable in her hand.
"Not bad!"
Overall, Perkins was satisfied with the weapons Hunter had brought.
Hunter sat on a nearby sofa, playing a card game.
He asked casually, "We've been in Las Vegas for two days. By the way, who exactly is your target? You still haven't told me."
Perkins put the weapons back into the gun case and got up from the bed.
Wearing a sheer nightgown, her charms were partially revealed.
Her height of over 1.8 meters and her beautiful, supermodel-like figure were suddenly looming before Hunter.
However, neither Perkins nor Hunter actually cared about this.
The reason was simple: the former was used to it, and the latter was used to it too.
Perkins walked over to Hunter and curled her lip when she saw him playing a card game on his laptop.
"Don't you men all love gambling?"
"Why don't you go play at the casino?"
"It's much more exciting than games."
Hunter didn't tell Perkins that he had already toured the casinos yesterday afternoon.
He had also caused a stir at the Bellagio, one of the ten largest casinos in Las Vegas, nearly resulting in a physical altercation.
He still didn't look up, continuing to play the card game and boringly grinding for pitiful experience points.
At the same time, he continued to ask, "Let's put aside talk unrelated to the mission for now. Tell me who the target is first."
"We can consider other things after we've dealt with the target."
"What a man with no sense of romance!"
Perkins gave him a sidelong glance but walked behind Hunter.
Then she leaned over, pressing her ample assets against his head.
Only then did she speak: "The target I've been commissioned to kill this time is a casino tycoon in Las Vegas."
"His name is Vera Tseleski, and his ancestors supposedly came from Russia."
Hearing this, Hunter finally raised his head.
He acted as if he didn't feel Perkins' impressive assets pressing against his head.
He asked curiously, "Just how many casino tycoons are there here in Las Vegas?"
"I went out for a bit yesterday afternoon and heard about several!"
Perkins smiled and asked back, "Do you know why Las Vegas is called Las Vegas?"
Hunter was speechless!
Rarely seeing Hunter at a loss for words, she smiled and continued, "As the largest and most famous Las Vegas in the world, Las Vegas has hundreds of casinos, large and small."
"Every year, over twenty million tourists come here from all over the world, drawn by its reputation, to squander their money."
"No one would sit by and watch those casinos be monopolized by one or two, or even a few people."
"As far as I know, there are no fewer than forty families in the entire Las Vegas area that have been in the casino business for over twenty years."
"Not to mention those families and forces that only have one or two casinos under their name."
"However, those who can be called casino tycoons in Las Vegas Las Vegas generally refer to the leaders of the forces that control the seventeen largest casinos."
"According to the intelligence I gathered beforehand, the seventeen largest casinos are currently held in the hands of eleven forces."
"Vera Tseleski is one of them!"
Hunter understood!
He nodded, waiting for Perkins to continue her introduction.
Perkins seemed to have gotten a bit tired from leaning over for a while.
She walked around to Hunter's side and sat down on the sofa next to him.
"Vera Tseleski's family has been immigrated to the US for nearly a hundred years."
"It's said his ancestors were nobles during the Tsarist era. After the birth of the Red Soviet Union, many Tsarist nobles like his family fled abroad."
"Most of them stayed in Europe, but Vera Tseleski's ancestors came to the US."
"Intelligence shows that in addition to running casino businesses in Las Vegas, their family had inextricable ties with the Mafia in the early years."
"Vera Tseleski only spends less than half the year in Las Vegas; he spends more time in Seattle and New York."
"He bought three floors of an apartment building in downtown Las Vegas and renovated them."
"It's said to have a gym, garden, swimming pool, private cinema, bar, and at least ten armed bodyguards inside."
Hunter listened carefully and only spoke again after Perkins stopped: "What's the name of that apartment building?"
"Charles Tower!"
Perkins said, "I couldn't get the internal design blueprints of his renovated apartment. I'm afraid there's a tough battle ahead."
Hunter nodded. The residence of a Las Vegas casino tycoon naturally wouldn't be easily breached.
He thought for a moment before saying, "We'll split up in a bit. You go ask around and see if you can get the internal design blueprints for Charles Tower."
"It would be best if you can get the blueprints for the three floors Vera Tseleski renovated!"
"I'll go scout the area first and look for a suitable sniping position nearby to see if I can take him out from a distance."
While speaking, Hunter had already finished and exited the game.
He skillfully typed Vera Tseleski's name into the search engine.
Soon, some news search results appeared on the screen.
After clicking and reading for a while, Hunter quickly identified the target's appearance.
It was a tall, slightly obese man of Russian descent, appearing to be between forty and fifty years old.
However, because Westerners generally have the habit of growing beards, and beards can easily lead to misjudging age,
Hunter couldn't be sure of the person's exact age.
"That's him!"
Perkins recognized the person's identity at a glance. She didn't question Hunter's assignment of tasks to her.
Even though she was a very independent and selfish person, Perkins herself didn't know why,
but the longer she knew Hunter and the more time she spent with him, the more she trusted and relied on this handsome Asian Youth.
This was also why, after discovering that this commission was very troublesome,
Perkins decisively invited Hunter again to help her complete the mission.
"Alright, I'll go investigate the structural diagrams of Charles Tower in a bit."
"We'll meet up tonight and discuss when to start the operation."
"Okay!"
