Resurrecting the Genius Within (Calypso Rain) novel Chapter 157

Chapter 157 Interrogation 1 

His hand moved like a snake ready to strike, delivering a deadly blow. 

But what he thought would save his life was effortlessly dodged by the girl, who even had the strength to 

counterattack. 

He just managed to catch the girl’s fierce counterattack. 

The fight was about to kick off. 

The small room turned into a chaotic battlefield. After just two rounds, the shadowy figure realized he was outmatched. 

Soon, he struggled to keep up his defence. 

Inside the villa, the sound of fighting rang out incessantly. 

In close combat, the dark figure sensed a familiar scent emanating from the girl, as well as a chilling aura of death even stronger than his own. 

Everything reminded him of the terrifying figures in the Dark Shadow. 

What threw that man off was the girl’s skill, which seemed incredibly familiar. 

He couldn’t help but wonder if they shared the same teacher. 

Outmatched, the man realized he couldn’t win. Each time he tried to flee, the girl effortlessly blocked his path. 

A trained killer reduced to a mere plaything in someone else’s hands. 

After a while.. 

The villa fell quiet. 

Even though only a few minutes had gone by, it felt like ages to the man. He was completely vulnerable and powerless, facing a humiliation and defeat he’d never experienced before. 

In the room. 

The floor was like a disaster zone. 

The man lay there, limbs stiff, unable to move, his face twisted in pain, sweat dripping profusely. 

His bare skin peeked out from under his clothes, veins pulsing strangely beneath. He was numb and in agony all over, making him wish for death. 

His eyes were wide with fear as he stared at the girl with the silver needle. 

The man struggled to move his bloodstained lips, whether attempting to speak or just futilely struggling, it 

was unclear. 

Isabelle noticed the man’s actions and approached, squatting down beside him.

With a swift move, she seized his chin with one hand. With a snap, his jaw popped out of its socket. 

As the man looked on in disbelief, Isabelle extracted a small item from between his teeth. 

She took a closer look. 

Found out it wasn’t poison but a listening device. 

It seemed the Shadow Sect sent him purely to test her, not to kill her. 

Isabelle took out a glass bottle. 

Its contents are a mysterious liquid resembling medicine. 

She uncapped it and tossed the listening device inside. 

The metal piece quickly dissolved and dispersed in the liquid. 

The man watched in terror. 

Then Isabelle picked up the man’s dagger from the ground, rolled him over onto his back, and swiftly made a cut at the back of his neck. 

Blood started trickling out. 

Amidst the man’s pained groans, Isabelle extracted a chip from beneath his skin–the latest tracking device. 

The man’s eyes widened in disbelief. 

How did she find out!! 

She threw the bloodied tracker into the bottle to dissolve. 

After clearing everything off the man’s body, Isabelle grabbed the back of his shirt collar and ripped it downward. 

Revealing the man’s scar–covered, sweat–drenched back. 

On his spine, there was a sequence of codes. 

Isabelle glanced at it, sneering disdainfully. 

She flipped the man back over, fixed his jaw, and then pricked a spot on his body with a needle, allowing him to speak again. 

She inquired leisurely, “How long have you joined the Dark Shadow?” 

While she asked, paying no mind to the man’s surprised gaze, she picked up his torn clothes from the floor and casually wiped her hands. 

After that, she grabbed the toppled chair and settled back at the bar. 

She took a sip of her drink.

The man stayed quiet, merely observing her. 

Isabelle continued, “If you don’t want to talk, I can cut out your tongue.” 

He finally responded, “Five years.” 

Isabelle asked, “Do you know who I am?” 

The man gazed at her and replied, “You’re the boss of the Blackwaters.” 

Isabelle scoffed. The boss of Blackwaters. No Name in Duel Tournament. The top assassin of the Dark Shadow, Blood Shadow.” 

The man’s eyes twitched slightly. 

Isabelle chuckled. “Surprised? Did the Dark Shadow send you to investigate me without letting you know that No Name is Blood Shadow?” 

Of course, the organization had briefed him that No Name was the most fearsome figure among them. What startled him was, “How did you know? How do you know so much about Dark Shadow?” 

Why did she immediately recognize him as being from the Dark Shadow, showing no surprise at his arrival, and seeming to know everything about him? 

How did she figure out about the listening device in his mouth, the tracker implanted beneath his skin on his neck? And how come the liquid to dissolve these devices was ready in advance? 

The girl didn’t answer him but instead, after looking him over, remarked, “The Dark Shadow sends newbie like you. 

She felt somewhat irritated. 

A newbie? The man knew he couldn’t compare to those veterans, but he had been with the Dark Shadow for five years. Before being recruited by the Dark Shadow, he was also a seasoned assassin. Yet, in her eyes, he was just a newbie. 

Isabelle asked, “Was it Joker who sent you?”
