Chapter 223 Surfaced
"She is just a myth by you. After all, she is only one person."
David said with some disdain.
Then he saw Andrew's slightly unhappy face and immediately added:
"Mr. Andrew, please rest assured. I understand the rules here and I will not embarrass you."
David assured.
Andrew also understood. What the other party meant was that he would not mess around in his territory, and that after leaving here, it would no longer be under his control.
"Good luck!"
Andrew spared the words of admonishment and let the other person hit the wall on his own. Only when it really hurts would he believe it.
David raised the wine glass in his hand and left the reception directly after drinking. Although he didn't take the Blood Peony in his eyes, it didn't mean that he would be careless. Some preparations still had to be made.
The next day, Ripple made a call to Andrew in the afternoon.
Andrew tactfully told Ripple that David agreed to meet, but seemed to have other plans and asked her to be careful.
Ripple understood the implication of Andrew's words. After hanging up the phone, he muttered "Old Fox" and went to the reception.
She noticed something strange on the way. There were many people from the action team on the street, and some obviously unfamiliar faces were wandering around. Although these people were well disguised, they were a little unsatisfactory in front of Lianyi, a master of disguise.
Lianyi's expression remained unchanged, and he immediately returned to the headquarters and went directly to the Intelligence Collection Section.
Sure enough, the intelligence collection office of HKUST was empty, but she heard a sound in Yilin's office, so she walked over and knocked on the door.
"Come in!"
Yilin's voice came from inside.
Ripple saluted after entering. Looking at Yilin who was fully armed and preparing to go out, she said without changing her expression:
"Chief Yilin, our section chief asked me to tell you that the news you received about Blood Peony appearing at tonight's reception is false."
After hearing this, Yilin paused in putting on her coat, turned around in surprise and asked:
"How do you know?"
"Report to Chief Yilin. I don't know the details. If you have any questions, you can ask our section chief directly."
Yilin frowned, and then decided that it would be better to ask. Wei Yi might know something inside. Intelligence agents like them all have their own sources of intelligence.
"but."
Lianyi lowered her voice deliberately, took two steps forward, and said mysteriously:
"I heard the section chief talking on the phone. It seemed that a man named David wanted to kill people with a knife and use our intelligence department. As for what David had to do with Blood Peony, I didn't hear clearly."
A flash of anger flashed in Yilin's eyes, and then she said coldly:
"You actually eavesdropped on the commander's call."
"Chief Wei opened the door and didn't avoid me. This doesn't count as eavesdropping!"
Ripple rolled her eyes, then muttered:
"You asked me, and after I told you, you accused me of being difficult to serve."
Yilin was too lazy to pay attention to Ripple and was going to ask clearly. Although she wanted to kill Blood Peony, she didn't want to be used as a weapon by David.
Lianyi subconsciously stepped aside and let the officer go in front. Then he knocked Yilin unconscious with a knife, closed the door and locked it, and put her on the chair.
Lianyi quickly searched the entire office, and after finding nothing, she finally turned her attention to Yilin, who was unconscious.
The reason why the other party was so persistent in catching Blood Peony was probably not just because of Li Li's death. She always felt that there were other reasons, and she knew that if she asked Yilin directly, the other party would definitely not tell the truth, so she simply knocked the other party unconscious.
Since she couldn't find the answer in the office, she looked for clues in Yilin.
She rummaged through Yilin's body, but found nothing except guns and daggers. Ripple was determined not to give up and even checked the other person's accessories, but still found nothing special.
Ripple turned the opponent's body over, but he failed to control his strength and tore her back collar directly. Then, he found a tattoo in the middle of the shoulder blade on the opponent's back.
The moment she saw the tattoo, she connected all the clues together, because there was an identical tattoo on the same position on Fujiki Jiro's body.
This is what the original person saw when he was bullied. He resisted fiercely and scratched the other person's back before accidentally discovering the existence of the tattoo. He was even beaten up and lay in bed for three days.
Looking at Yilin in front of him, a murderous intent flashed in Lianyi's eyes. It turns out that Yilin is a spy lurking in Japan, and her relationship with Fujikijiro must be unusual. As an intelligence collector, she must know before the agreement is broken. Fujiki Jiro died at the hands of Blood Peony.
The Japanese officer she planned to shoot on the day was just a pawn they abandoned in order to make her lurk deeper. The appearance of Fujiki was an accident, and Yilin did not expect it.
Lianyi seized the opportunity to avenge the original body and clear the obstacles at the same time, but Yilin lost an important companion, so she kept biting the blood peony.
When she saw Yilin meeting with an intelligence broker from country M at the cocktail party, she doubted the purpose of the meeting. The meaning of Andrew's phone call and the members of the action team on the way to the cocktail party all proved that it was Yilin who was contacted by David. .
David probably didn't know about this personal grudge between the two parties, and thought he could use the Kuomintang's pursuit of Xue Mudan to help him kill Xue Mudan.
Lianyi looked at the tattoo of the rising sun and killed the other party neatly. This time she directly stuffed Yilin into the wooden cabinet in the office, locked the cabinet, and then locked the door of the office to make sure that no one was there. After seeing it, I just picked up my bag and left.
When night came, Lianyi changed into black night clothes, quietly went to the place where M country was ambush, and sent these people to meet their God. After completing this, she put away her thunder Dagger, then dialed the phone number at the reception and asked David to answer.
"Hello, Mr. David, I am Peony."
Ripple's voice reached David's ears through the receiver. The other person's hand tightened on the phone, and then he pretended to be nonchalant and said:
"Hello, Miss Peony, I have heard about you for a long time. Andrew told me that you want to negotiate a deal with me. I have been waiting for you for a long time. I wonder when you will arrive?"
"I'm sorry, I'm afraid we can't meet today. Because Mr. David is not sincere, so I canceled the meeting, but I have prepared a gift for you. I hope you like it."
After saying that, he chuckled and hung up the phone.
David across from him suddenly felt his heart tighten, and some bad premonitions came to mind. He seemed to have thought of something, and then his expression changed, he dropped the phone and hurriedly left the reception.
Half an hour later, he went to see Andrew with a pale face.
"Andrew, they're all dead!"
David talked incoherently.
But Andrew understood. He could vaguely guess what David did.
"Dear David, you have angered Blood Peony, which is not a good thing!"
See you tomorrow~ Waiting for everyone to leave a message for the next dimension.
