PREFACE ; AFTER ONE END

" It all started twenty years ago, when you ruined my life....."

A man in his late forties drenched in rain water rushes in with haste to the door step, the front door creaks open as he walks in, as he quietly took steps inside the house the floor boards creaked loudly.

"Dad?.....Dad! "

A young girl rushes down the stairs in haste to greet her father, he looked at her with great worries in his eyes, the rain hammered down the rumbling sound sent a chill down Xiu Ying's spine. "Xiu Ying! go back inside, it's not safe here.... Go back upstairs" her father said with a hint of fear in his voice as he pushed her back inside.

" But....Dad? What's wrong?" Xiu Ying asked as she slowly moved towards the stairs. Right outside the Zhang Family residence, a black limousine was parked very close to the house, the window went down slowly and a young boy glanced at the house..... he hurriedly retrieved a loaded magazine and drove it firmly into the pistol's base until it locked. He then produced the long, heavy suppressor and began to carefully thread it onto the barrel. It took a few rotations, the metal cool under his fingertips. Once secured, he gripped the rear of the slide, yanked it back and released it, the sound of the action cycling was music to his ears, as he came down from the limo and gazed at the house, he cocked the hammer and stared at his target.

"I guess I have to do everything by myself...." he let out a deep sigh. Heading towards the house he put up his hoodie and walked in the rain, he jumped the fence and walked towards the front door. "Mr. Zhang...." the young man said pulling up the gun and pointing it at the man. With bullets to his heart and brain, he was dead, the young girl screamed as she watched this happen, she rushed downstairs and saw her father lying down flat, not moving or saying a word, she fell on her knees and cried out loudly..... She looked at the young boy who was looking at her with no emotion, he gazed at her and left. She quickly memorized his face and rushed to the telephone, with different emotions clouding her mind she was devastated. In tears the four-year-old Xiu Ying called the ambulance and her aunt who was her only relative from her father's side. Without the paramedics, Xiu Ying knew her father had died the moment he was shot.....

Aunt Mei Li and Xiu Ying were devastated, they consoled each other day by day and plan his funeral

TWO WEEKS LATER

Another raining day, in Beijing.... Xiu Ying wore a modest black gown as she stood by her father's grave. She burst in tears once again, her aunt quickly approached her after greeting the guest.

AN FUNERAL HOMES

Aunt Mei Lin and Xiu Ying stood in front of his grave, Xiu Ying wiped her tears and looked up and Aunt Mei Lin who looked at her brother's picture endlessly, then she finally spoke in a slow and sweet voice " Xiu Ying, I want you to make a promise to me-...

"I'm sorry Aunty, but I can't make you any promises.... My father was killed by a twelve-year-old maniac..... And I swear that I will avenge his death, if he couldn't finish those mafia people I will" she said with determination in her eyes.... Aunt Mei Lin looked at her with pity and hugged her tightly. "Oh dear brother, how do I convince her not to follow in your steps ? How do I fix this? I can't let her walk on the same path as her father" Aunt Mei Lin thought to herself as she let go of Xiu Ying. Xiu Ying goes to meet Mr. Ito who was the owner of the Spy company her dad once worked for.
