1. Thoughtful about the callous killer
Milo is a seasoned professional killer who is accustomed to the cruelty of his profession. He always had a cold expression, no concern for life, and even more, he was full of pride in the astonishing "work" he was engaged in.
One day, Milo, who had successfully completed an assassination mission, sat alone in the living room of his dimly lit and dilapidated apartment. He wiped the dagger in his hand expressionlessly as he watched the scarlet blood on the dagger, which had not yet completely dissipated.
As a skilled killer, Milo has experienced such scenes thousands of times, and has long been numb to blood and life and death.
However, at this moment, Milo's heart swelled with doubts that he had never felt before. He suddenly remembered the frightened look in the mission's target as he lay dying, and that helpless gaze pierced deep into his heart like a sharp dagger.
Milo subconsciously looked around, trying to drive the guilt away without a trace.
Milo begins to reflect on every step he has taken on this path, questioning whether the act of killing is justified. He remembered all the cruel crimes he had committed in the past, and the scenes of innocent people dying at his hands came to him one by one, and he felt unprecedented guilt and pain.
He covered his face tightly, as if to erase all these horrible memories. Growing up in a killer organization, killing people was once a daily routine for him, but now it is like a sharp knife, mercilessly piercing his heart.
It was this deep self-reflection and intense inner struggle that prompted Milo to decide to say goodbye to his past life once and for all, and to get rid of the profession that he increasingly hated.
However, he did not anticipate the serious challenges that this decision would bring to him, and at the same time completely change his new understanding of life and human nature.
2. Escape and rebirth
In order to completely get rid of the haze of the past, Milo resolutely chooses to leave the killer organization and embark on a new life journey. However, his decision provoked panic and anger among the organization's bosses.
As an experienced killer, Milo has too many of the organization's core secrets, and the bosses fear that he will reveal them, so they decide to eradicate them to prevent future trouble.
In this way, a dangerous pursuit of the battle unfolded silently. Milo had to embark on a long and dangerous escape. He is on high alert, vowing to prevent the killers from discovering his whereabouts.
Between each sunrise and sunset, Milo is trying his best to hide himself, like a frightened bird, ready to embark on a new escape.
After months of turbulent displacement, Milo was exhausted. However, just when he was physically and mentally exhausted, he unexpectedly broke into a quiet and peaceful rural town.
A humble café caught his eye, the outdoor courtyard filled the courtyard with the enticing aroma of bread, and Milo's stomach gurgled uncontrollably.
The café owner's daughter, Emily (played by Emily Mortimer), succeeds in dispelling Milo's doubts with her warm and friendly attitude.
The young woman was defenseless against him, and seemed to regard him as an ordinary passerby.
The two quickly conversed, and Milo decided to take on the role of a baker here, hiding his true identity as a killer for the time being.
At first, Milo saw the job as a means to cover himself, but he didn't expect it to change the course of his life forever. As time passed, spending time with Emily made him feel the warmth of ordinary life, and at the same time awakened his deep desire for friendship and love.
Gradually, he developed a strong bond with the rest of the café's staff, as well as with the town's residents.
This is an experience that Milo has never had, and in the cruel and unforgiving world of the past, he rarely had the opportunity to meet real friends. But now, the hard work at the café every day, and the interaction with the kind townspeople, make him feel warmer than ever.
Milo seemed to regain his vitality and move away from the dark world he hated
However, just when Milo thought he was finally able to usher in the dawn of a new life, a heart-pounding event occurred. The Killers did not give up their pursuit of him, and they quickly found the town where Milo was hiding.
On a deep and quiet night, when the hustle and bustle of the entire coffee shop has quietly ended, Milo is alone in the busy and tidy kitchen, and the sudden sound of small footsteps disturbs his otherwise peaceful mind.
The sharp killer instinct was instantly activated, and the muscles in his whole body tensed, as if ready for the upcoming challenge.
Milo tiptoed towards the source of the sound, only to see several mysterious figures in black robes lurking in the shadows in the backyard of the coffee shop, and he recognized them at a glance as his former colleagues.
Obviously, the killer organization that once frightened him did not give up on tracking him, Milo bit his lip tightly, his eyes flashed with a cold and murderous light, he understood that it would be a life-and-death contest as expected, and it was not long before those killers noticed Milo's presence, and the two sides engaged in a thrilling hand-to-hand battle under the cover of night.
With years of experience as a killer, Milo eventually managed to defeat those enemies. However, he is well aware that this is only the beginning, and that in the future he must always be vigilant to prevent another attack and retaliation by the killer group.
This plunged Milo into an unprecedented conflict and inner struggle
On the one hand, Milo longs to live an ordinary life, away from blood and violence. In this quiet town, he found a long-lost sense of "home", made sincere friends, and established precious relationships.
However, on the other hand, his past identity and sins are like a sharp thorn that pierces deep into his heart and is difficult to completely remove.
In the process of avoiding his former colleagues, Milo has to confront his past choices. Those innocent lives, those horrific murder scenes, recurred in his dreams, tormenting his mind.
Milo (played by Gore Wiggins) is mired in deep self-questioning, and he is ashamed of his past self, but at the same time has a strong desire to get rid of his past habits.
It was in this town that he first experienced the value of life and the importance of cherishing it. The fierce inner struggle makes Milo feel tormented. Sometimes he wanted to flee from this place, from the sins of the past; Sometimes he is reluctant to give up the friendship and happiness he just gets.
Milo's heart was pierced repeatedly by a sharp dagger, hesitating and agonizing, and the struggle was like an endless nightmare, tearing his soul to pieces.
In the midst of this deep and complex conflict and struggle, Emily and the townspeople became the most powerful supporters and hopeful lights on Milo's path forward.
It is because of their friendship that Milo can deeply realize that the true meaning of life is not only in the endless pursuit of material life, but also in the deep emotional bond between us and others.
Milo gradually begins to reflect deeply on his past behavior, and gradually realizes that killing with cruelty and ruthlessness is not the right way to solve the problem, but will lead to more painful disasters and endless cycles of hatred.
In the process of getting along with those kind townspeople, he gradually revealed the true and warm side of his heart.
Once upon a time, Milo, a professional killer, armed himself like an impregnable fortress, ruthless, disregarding life, and even proud of the shocking job he was doing.
However, under the influence of Emily and his friends, he began to learn to care for others, treating everyone around him with kindness and kindness.
The intimate contact with the residents of the town also made Milo experience unprecedented warmth and touching. Whenever he strolls through the streets, he always receives warm greetings from strangers; Whenever he is busy in the coffee shop, he is always surrounded by precious laughter.
These seemingly ordinary and trivial things are warming his once cold heart like a spring breeze at this moment.
From a cold-blooded killer to an ordinary baker, Milo undergoes a journey of self-redemption and rebirth. He used to regard life as a mustard, but now he knows that he must cherish every emotional bond in life.
The power of friendship made him re-examine the true value of life and find a new meaning in life.
