Now, Li Hao listened to Talin's mocking laughter and dared not utter a word. He was clearly the oldest among them, but now he was being scolded like a primary school student.

His eyes were fixed on Qi Jiu, as if waiting for her reply.

Qi Jiu glanced at him, a slight smile playing on her lips, as if she had known from the start that he would react this way: "Then do you know where you went wrong?"

Actually, she wasn't angry anymore; in fact, she had never been angry from the beginning. She was just pretending to be angry for the sake of both of them.

Li Hao's behavior was indeed a bit excessive before, but it wasn't without its advantages. Li Hao is a love-struck fool, so at least Leng Ruo won't suffer losses later.

Li Hao pursed his lips. "I shouldn't have left my post without permission while I was working, and I shouldn't have thought that a relationship with no future was more important than my future."

Upon hearing this, the girl immediately laughed.

"What do you mean by having no feelings? The entire assassin organization knows about your feelings."

Li Hao: "..." Is it really that ostentatious?

Tarlin seemed to see through his thoughts and laughed directly, "Not going to make a fuss? I'm afraid even the bugs in the organization know what you're thinking."

Li Hao: "..."

"Alright, let's get back to work." Qi Jiu didn't want to discuss this with him right now. After Leng Ruo's closed training ended, the two of them could talk however they wanted.

When the time comes, she won't care even if you ask her to.

Tarlin stared at her as she carried her equipment, then paused, "Are we just going to walk right in like this? So brazenly?"

"What else? Why be afraid of them? If we run into them, we'll just fight them."

Moreover, she didn't think Zero would come in cautiously. Since they had already scouted the area and the main force was here, they were probably just swaggering around in the jungle.

As she spoke, she patted the wolf's big head and said, "Come on, don't eat anymore. I'll come back later and give you big chunks of meat."

"Awoo!"

Seeing the wolf put down the jerky in its mouth, Li Hao shook his head with a touch of melancholy. "These days, even wolves can understand human speech."

Didn't they say that supernatural beings weren't allowed after the founding of the People's Republic of China? It's true.

This primeval jungle is located on the edge of the entire continent of M, and due to its geographical location and the nature of the forest, few people approach it.

When Qi Jiu and her group appeared in the jungle, they added a touch of human presence to the quiet environment.

Suddenly, the girl stopped. She raised her hand to touch the communicator by her ear, savoring the unique earthy smell of the forest, and a smile appeared on her lips.

"You found it?"

On the other end of the communicator, a person dressed in military green training uniform was lurking deep in the jungle, concealing his entire body except for his bright eyes. He seemed to be observing something, his gaze very focused.

He lowered his voice, "Sir, we can't be sure yet, but judging from their clothes, they're not ordinary people."

Not far away, a group of men in black were seen swaggering around, searching for something.

If you were to ask them what they were looking for, it would be more accurate to say they were... on patrol? They were wearing specialized training clothes, and judging from their behavior, it was clear they were all trained professionals.

It would be a lie to say that someone like that is not suspicious to be here.

Besides, the badges on their shoulders were also somewhat suspicious, resembling the totem that Number Seven mentioned.

On the other side, the girl hummed in agreement, said "Be careful," and then turned off the communicator. Looking down at the monitor in her hand, she turned and walked in another direction.

Talin, Li Hao, and the others followed her without asking any questions.

After an unknown amount of time, the girl suddenly stopped walking. Talin and Li Hao behind her also seemed to have noticed something, and they became alert, observing their surroundings.

His hand had already instinctively reached for the weapon at his waist.

"Wait for me a moment."

As she spoke, the girl turned and walked away without looking back. Seeing this, Li Hao pursed his lips, looking hesitant. "No, Qiqi is alone?"

"What? You're worried about her? Her reputation on the black market is way higher than yours, and you're still worried about her? You should worry about yourself instead."

Li Hao: "..."

Just get to the point; why are you being so sarcastic?

After an unknown amount of time, there was finally movement around Li Hao and the others. Looking up, they saw two figures slowly approaching.

They recognized one of the figures, but the other one... looked rather disheveled.

Talin watched as Qi Jiu pinched the person as if he were a chick, his face a mixture of amusement and exasperation.

This guy, he's still so decisive. But that's good, he won't suffer losses internationally in the future.

"Hurry up!"

Qi Jiu kicked the person next to her with some impatience.

As the distance between the two gradually closed, Tarin and the others realized that the person the girl had grabbed was now standing with his hands behind his back, as if he were tied up.

With a flick of her wrist, Qi Jiu threw the man to the ground.

"Bang!"

Perhaps because his hands were tied, the man could only fall straight to the ground, his face hitting the ground first.

When the pain came, I also ate a mouthful of dirt.

Seeing him fall flat on his face, Li Hao had never been so determined. He would never mess with this little brat again! Absolutely not!

Tallinn smiled, squatted down in front of the man, and grinned as he looked at the armband on the man's shoulder.

"You're Zero's person?"

The man was clearly taken aback, then turned his head away and stopped talking, looking like he would rather die than submit. However, he soon broke down.

because……

"You're back?" Qi Jiu looked at the man slowly approaching, her eyes crinkling, and she also glanced at the person next to him.

Qi Silin had been acting alone with the wolves since the beginning of the operation, and now it was time for him to return, bringing back spoils of war.

The man's clothes were no different from the one lying face down in the mud. If there was any difference, it would be that the man next to him seemed to be of higher status.

Sure enough, the person lying on the ground stared blankly at the familiar face next to Qi Silin, as if he hadn't expected that the other person would also be captured, and immediately looked miserable.

"……team leader?"

The person: "..." Please shut up.

Upon hearing this address, Qi Jiu immediately laughed.

Li Hao and Talin: "..." As expected of a team, amazing.

Seeing that the two people didn't want to say anything, Qi Jiu didn't press them directly. She probably already understood the grudge between Zero and the international assassin organization, even if no one else said it.

"Have someone take them both back first, and interrogate them later."

Their journey continued, but unexpectedly, after walking for a while, a male voice came through the communicator.
