Chapter 80 Follow
Morning in Igwent, Upper Town.
This was a quiet street with sparse crowds of people coming and going. At the entrance of an alley, a carriage was parked on the side of the road. Dorothy sat quietly in the carriage, and in front of her sat Brandon with a dull expression.
"Huh... It looks like things are going pretty smoothly. I wonder how things are going on Gregor's end? But the intelligence has been given so carefully, there shouldn't be any problems."
Dorothy murmured with a long sigh of relief. Judging from the current situation, although her plan had some minor problems, she still managed to carry it out, and so far it has been about half successful.
Ever since she used pendulum divination to predict the flooded dock as the ambush site of the Holy Communion, Dorothy went to investigate without stopping, where she unexpectedly ran into the leader and members of the Holy Communion who were scouting the area.
If an ambush needs to be planned, it would be impossible without first inspecting the scene, making arrangements, and determining the location. This gave Dorothy another chance to catch the tail of the communion party, and this time she caught a lot of them.
Yesterday afternoon at the flooded dock, the hidden Dorothy quietly observed the preparations and deployments of the Holy Communion from various angles. After observing for several hours, Dorothy completely memorized the other party's deployment, including the ambush points and secret sentry points. After using her omnipotent memory to forcefully memorize the entire bird's-eye view of the flooded dock and the defense information of the Holy Communion, she went back to draw a detailed map, and then commissioned a florist to send the map and flowers to the Security Bureau early in the morning.
Dorothy knew the time for the flowers to be delivered at the Holy Communion, so she arranged to send her flowers half an hour earlier, so that the Security Bureau would get the map information first, and when the flowers for the Holy Communion were delivered, the hunter team would have been dispatched. At the same time, the traitor Brandon lurking inside the Security Bureau would also start to act in advance, and Dorothy's target was him.
Dorothy also thought about what would happen if Brandon noticed that the time was wrong and notified Buck through the Dream Anchor, but in fact, even if he notified Buck, it would not have much impact. The hunters who went there with caution would not be ambushed. At most, Buck would order a retreat and the hunters would be caught empty-handed. Brandon himself would not waste the opportunity when the director and the hunters were not around, and chose to steal things and run away. Dorothy, who had been prepared, could still intercept him. Although the hunters did not achieve any results, they would not be seriously injured by the ambush. Dorothy barely achieved her goal.
Moreover, Dorothy had heard from her previous eavesdropping that Buck asked Brandon to notify him only if the hunters did not move or were delayed in their dispatch, so Dorothy also judged that Brandon would most likely not notify him. The florist could make up any excuse that he wanted to say that the time was wrong. This half hour would not change much for their plan, so there was no need to waste the seal to notify him, and it would not matter even if he did.
"I finally got the things, but unfortunately... there was an accident and a lot of things were missing." As Dorothy spoke, she shook the blood-stained suitcase in front of her. There were much fewer things in it than Dorothy expected.
"Who knew that old lady could be so fierce and shoot without saying a word? There are many hidden talents in the Anyin Bureau..."
Dorothy sighed with emotion. She hadn't expected that the old lady who was only responsible for collecting flowers in her eyes would suddenly show her prowess. The gun helped the Security Bureau recover most of its losses in one go, but it also reduced Dorothy's gains by more than half.
"But fortunately... our harvest today will not be limited to this..." As Dorothy said this, she looked at Brandon who was sitting in front of him.
"Then it's up to you, Mr. Brandon."
"Of course, miss."
The corpse Brandon said, then turned around, picked up another suitcase, opened the door of the carriage and walked out, then walked all the way into the alley.
…
Carrying a suitcase, Brandon was speeding through the alley, looking panicked and breathing heavily. He kept looking behind him from time to time, as if he was afraid that someone would catch up with him.
“Hoo…Hoo…Hoo…”
Panting, Brandon ran forward anxiously with his suitcase. He shuttled back and forth between the alleys in the city, and finally ran out of an alley and came to a quiet and deserted road.
Here, a horse-drawn carriage was parked quietly by the roadside, and standing next to the carriage was a coachman.
"You're here? How's it going? Where's your stuff?"
Seeing Brandon panting, the coachman in the carriage quickly spoke, and Brandon stayed where he was, took two deep breaths, and then spoke again.
"Huh...Huh...Everyone is here, take me with you quickly, they may catch up with us at any time. Oh, right...Do you have a bandage? I'm injured..."
"Bandages and medicine are in the carriage. Get in quickly. We'll be there soon." The coachman said this and then stepped directly onto the driver's seat. Brandon didn't say anything else. He opened the door and got into the carriage. Then he opened the medicine box that had been prepared and began to treat the wound.
After Brand got on the carriage, the driver began to drive the horses and pull the carriage forward, heading towards the end of the deserted street.
Not long after the carriage in Brandon drove, another carriage slowly drove up from the other end of the street. The driver was the corpse Edric, and Dorothy sat steadily in the carriage.
At this time, Dorothy was sensing the location of the corpse Brandon while controlling her carriage to follow at a distance.
The carriage that Brandon had just taken was the one that came to pick him up. According to Brandon and Buck's plan, as soon as Brandon got rid of the pursuers, he would immediately come here and take this carriage to the base of Buck, the leader of the Holy Communion, where they would wait for Buck and others who had returned victoriously.
And now, Dorothy also wants to use this carriage to go to Buck's base. Although she has almost confirmed the location of the base during the counter-tracking of the Holy Communion after the previous reconnaissance at the dock, the cover of this carriage can better allow her forces to infiltrate the base.
According to Dorothy's assumption, several leaders of the Holy Communion should still be fighting with the Hunters at the flooded dock. The Hunters have detailed enemy intelligence, and the Holy Communion there may have been wiped out. Buck's base just happened to have no extraordinary people in charge, so she could take this opportunity to directly destroy it, and then plunder it and get some extra spoils.
This just makes up for the damage caused by the old lady at the front desk.
Without the base of the extraordinary creatures, Dorothy believed that she could easily solve the problem with her current strength. If Buck died at the flooded dock, and the Security Bureau found out his identity and followed the clues to confiscate his property, then she would be left with nothing!
Therefore, we must act early on in this matter, otherwise it will be too late.
In this way, Dorothy followed Brandon's carriage through the city, all the way to the stronghold of Buck, the leader of the Holy Communion.
