Upstairs, Nicole had taken a shower and gotten changed, finally getting a moment of peace.

With nothing to do, she turned on her computer.

After fiddling with the normal windows interface for a while, a mysterious window popped up, revealing a list of the Hunter jobs inside.

Looking at the list of jobs, a head portrait flashed in the private chat window. She clicked open it and saw the teammate codenamed spector talking to her. [Lucifire, you have been offline for many days. Where have you been?]

[Just living a few days of normal life,] Nicole calmly replied. 

[You have been on the wanted list online . I can't believe that you can still enjoy normal life.] Spector showed her a few screenshot. While she was away for the past few days,someone had pinned an order at the top, and she was the target.

[Isn't that common?] Nicole smirked, not taking it seriously. 

In the dark web called The Hunters, whether it was The Hunters Union or a lone Hunter, it was common to offend someone because of taking a certain jobs. Most of the jobs she had accepted this year were big cases, and it was normal that she was  now wanted.

[Common? Didn't you see the bounty? It is $10 million!] Spector attached an emoji that he was about to crawl out of the screen.

[Oh,yeah?] Nicole clicked an icon, and sure enough she saw the reward which was the highest reward of the year . It seemed that she stepped on someone's toes, and that person was offering a $10 million bounty to come after her. That was interesting. 

If she was not the one being wanted she would have taken on  the job.

[Oh, yeah? You should lie low from now on and don't expose yourself. ]

Nicole looked at the screen and replied sarcastically,  [ Worry about yourself . The entire world knows that you and I have worked together.]

She was confident of staying undetected as no one had found  her for so many years and they were not going to anytime soon . Spector was her partner, but she wasn't sure how well spector could hide .

[Damm it! You just reminded me ; I almost forgot . I had better stay offline from now on . Take care .] Spector went dark right after.

Nicole shook her head at spector's nervousness.  It was she who was wanted not spector. 

Nicole let out a sigh and continued to browse through the list . Risking her safety, she picked a job that offered an attractive reward, and the shut down the computer and went to sleep.

Unbeknownst to her, her actions were provocative to someone else.......
