Chapter 4

Vixen: The professional

"Wasn't that an exciting night, Vix?" Wendy happily smiled, slowly took off her blood-stained glove and put it down on the table.

She then took a towel and began to carefully wipe the blood on her face. Wendy turned to the left and looked at Hayato, who was now a corpse. His bloody body was still tied tightly in the chair, his face lowered to his chest. Blood dripped from his face to the floor, forming a large pool under his feet.

She gently laid the towel on the table, which was now covered with blood.

"Two eyeballs ... two ears and ... thirty-two teeth... You did well, Vix" Wendy counted something on the table as carefully as if she were checking her belongings. After finishing counting, she relaxedly sat on the table and lit a cigarette.

Smoking the cigarette, Wendy then lifted her head and slowly blew out a faint smoke into the air. The grey smoke quickly dissipated into the darkness above the ceiling. The aroma of tobacco gradually blends with the smell of blood, creating both a strong and mild scent. Wendy smiled gently and took a deep breath of air, enjoying the results after a long work session....

After fifteen minutes of rest, Wendy threw the cigarette on the floor and stepped on it. She needs to remove this body and get ready for the next hunt.

Wendy took off her blood-stained raincoat and threw it aside. She walked over to the remaining table in front of Hayato's corpse and pulled out clean clothes from several bags.

She put on her white bra again and quickly put on new shoes. Then Wendy wore a pair of black jeans and a black T-shirt. In the end, she took a grey blazer from her bag and put it on.

Wendy was dressed up in a new formal outfit. She looks like a young and pretty businessman, very different from the innocent delivery girl she has acted in before.

She took her phone and dialled the number. It's time to call the cleaner, or to be more precise: Crime scene cleaner and body disposer.

Quick, clean, and quiet. They are the ones who will always keep your rooms clean, free of dirt. Help you stay out of trouble with the autopsy team and the police.

"Hello, this is Mr Wolf's room cleaning service." A female voice came from the phone.

"It's me, Vixen. I have a room reservation for tonight." Wendy replied with her second name and smiled lightly.

In this dark and bloody underworld, no one knows where Wendy comes from or who she is. But when it comes to Vixen, people will know who she is, and what she is capable of.

"Oh, Miss Vixen!" The person on the other end of the line exclaimed in joy, after realizing their client.

Smart, seductive, and deadly, "Vixen" was like a cold-blooded fox in the dark forest, always hunting for your head. She might not be the strongest predator in the forest, but her charm was at the top of this underworld. And that was her deadly weapon, the weapon that you can't resist or escape.

"Can I ask if it is a room for men or women, miss?"

"One male."

"How is the room condition?"

"Bleeding to death. Separated, but mainly teeth, cartilage and eyeballs."

"What about the stains?"

"Not too messy, mainly gathered into a large pool."

"Okay, thank you for the information! Please be ready for the payment, we will arrive in a little while."

"I'll be ready, thanks." Wendy hung up and sat down at the clean table, waiting.

Just about 7 minutes later, Wendy heard a car engine outside the warehouse...

A knock sounded on the door, announcing that the cleaners had arrived.

Wendy opened the door, in front of her were five Japanese. The short and old man standing in the middle was Mr Wolf, who was wearing a fedoras hat and an overcoat.

On his left side was a small girl wearing a black mask with a mini skirt and side-tied hair. Standing next to her was a big fat guy wearing a hoodie and a wool hat.

To the right of Mr Wolf was a slim and short feminine boy with long hair covering his face, wearing a black, long T-shirt with striped thigh highs. He seemed a bit startled when looking at Hayato's body behind Wendy's back.

Next to the femboy was a tall, thin guy with a sharp look, wearing a parka. The tall guy placed his hand on the femboy's back, reassuring him.

All five people saw Wendy's artwork. Except for the femboy, the other four showed no fear or expression on their faces.

"Good to see you again, Miss Vixen." Mr Wolf greeted Wendy by her second name and politely placed his hat over his chest.

Not everyone in this underworld wants to use their real name, and Wendy was no exception. "Vixen" was the name everyone in the underworld often calls her. And that name has been with her for a long time, so long that Wendy sometimes even forgets her real name.

"It's been a while, Mr Wolf." Wendy smiled friendly and replied to Mr Wolf by his second name.

"Alright! Boar and Puppy will clear the body and remove any remaining pieces!" Mr Wolf gestured to the fat boy and the tall boy. "Lynx! You and Kitty will wipe away any traces, cleaning the floor!" He turned and spoke to the girl wearing the black mask.

After the order was given, the four of them immediately got to work and didn't say a word.

"So, it seems like a good start, right?" Mr Wolf turned to talk to Wendy while his staff continued to clean up.

"Yeah, I just got a few new orders," Wendy replied while looking at Hayato's body getting wrapped in large pieces of plastic. "Will probably need your service in the coming weeks, Mr Wolf."

"May I ask how many rooms are you going to book? Just so my staff can prepare well," said Mr Wolf.

"I want to pre-order" Wendy replied while watching the cleaners doing their job. "Nine rooms. Eight male, and one female."

"Alright, I'll take note of the quantity." Mr Wolf told her and took a small notebook, taking notes of the information from his client.

---------

After a while, he turned to his staff members. "How's everything?" Mr Wolf asked Lynx, the girl in the black mask.

The girl didn't answer, just raised her hands in front of her and put both hands down at the same time, "Finish".

"Good job! Let's clean up the tools and go home!" Mr Wolf ordered his staff.

Though, Wendy didn't know what the girl was trying to say to her boss. She can still recognize that girl was using sign language, a language for people who are deaf or unable to speak. So, the one who spoke to her on the phone was the femboy, Kitty.

Wendy looked around the warehouse...

All traces were erased. Her mess had been cleaned up in just five minutes as nothing had happened before. "Your service always impresses me..." Wendy gave an amused smile to Mr Wolf. "It's... so, so clean".

No matter what mess Wendy makes, Mr Wolf's service will take care of it. As long as she can hide what she did, nobody can stop her, not even those cops outside there. There was a time she believed in that corrupt legal system. There was a time... But that was a long time ago when people still called her Wendy. Now, they call her "Vixen".

"We will see each other again, Miss Vixen." Mr Wolf replied to Wendy and politely put on his hat.

"Sure, goodbye Mr Wolf," Wendy said goodbye and handed him an envelope containing money.

Boar and Puppy carried Hayato's body wrapped in plastic to the van, then they tossed it in the car trunk. The five of them quickly cleaned up the cleaning tools and climbed into the car.

After that, the van slowly ran towards the night and disappeared...
