Lone Wolf Mercenary: Bullet Marks

Chen Mo, code-named "Lone Wolf," trusts no one. Three years ago, during a mission, he was the only survivor of an eight-man team. A bullet came from behind, and his captain's last words were, "There's a mole." With a bullet scar on the back of his head, he drifted overseas and became a mercenary. He slept with his gun by his side and looked at people's hands before their faces.

During a mission in Africa, false intelligence lured him into a trap. On the way to the extraction point, he found a shell casing with Russian letters engraved on its base. Following the trail led him to an abandoned well, where an archive at the bottom held an order to eliminate him, signed by someone code-named "Chessmaster." There was also a group photo from twenty years ago. His former instructor, Shen Wang, was in it, and on the back, someone had written in pencil, "Don't come back." His father, Chen Yuanzheng, was named in the same file.

From Africa to Paris, he tracked the trail. A red-haired woman had left a line in the archive room: "Make contact or eliminate." She later became the only person able to keep pace with him, but he couldn't tell if she was a partner or a pawn. Bullet time let him see the trajectory of a shot, but pushing his mind too far could land him in the hospital. Suspicion had kept him alive until now; sheer stubbornness made him determined to see this through.

Scarred by countless bullets, the Lone Wolf is not alone. Before he pulls the trigger, he only wants an answer to one question: Who gave the order to shoot back then?
