Chapter 87 Chapter 87 I'm dying of laughter. Let me tell you something I don't know...
Unfortunately, I didn't have much education, so I didn't know what the world map looked like until I arrived in the Upward City. And I didn't understand who lived on the islands that outsiders were not allowed to enter until I arrived in the military zone.
It's hilarious to think about it. The mainland's population is so numerous it needs to be wiped out with bombs, yet the people of White Light Bay enjoy the best resources and the most spacious houses on the archipelago. They control everyone else through white ore, celebrating with toasts and mocking them at the same time.
I really want to kill them with a bomb.
But what I have to do now is not to spit on Baideng Bay, but to interrogate this undercover agent from Baideng Bay.
So he lifted his chin and looked down into his eyes, "Why aren't you talking, little undercover? Did I get it right?"
He no longer had the arrogance he had just now, but he still spoke stubbornly.
"Heh, with your organization's capabilities, how could you not spread the news after knowing this?" His eyes were filled with sarcasm. "You talk so righteously, but in reality, you're hoping that White Light Bay and the rebels will consume each other. If the rebels truly fall, you'll be White Light Bay's next target!"
"Wow!" I exclaimed. "Tell me something I don't know."
Undercover: ...
He was so shocked by my shamelessness that his pupils dilated, and in frustration he wanted to bite my hand.
“Bang!”
A slap across his face wiped my smile. "Alright, undercover, I don't have much time for rambling. Negotiations begin tonight at 7:00. Tell me who you plan to give these mineral products to."
"Don't you think you'll know..."
"If the rebels killed Kasena, how much of a stir would that cause once the news spread back to Ascend City and Keya District?"
The undercover was shocked. "What do you mean?"
I gently massaged his cheek, which had been slapped, and continued, "Oh, it doesn't have to be the rebels who killed him. It could have been Baidengwan. After all, Baidengwan has done so many immoral things, so one more assassination of a high-ranking officer wouldn't be much of a crime."
As I finished speaking, his face turned paler.
Eyebrows, cheeks, jaw, neck. My eyes took in even the slightest change on his face.
Very good. Baidengwan still doesn't know that Katsuna is one of ours, and they genuinely believe that the rebels have kidnapped Katsuna. I must capitalize on this information gap.
"Are you betting? Betting that the rebels will release Katsura once the negotiations are complete?" I asked him. "But have you ever considered that I just came back from the rebels? Do you think I saw Katsura? And guess why I had the confidence to mention her?"
“…” The undercover agent looked a little collapsed. He wanted to lower his head but I pinched his face, so he could only close his eyes hopelessly.
After an unknown amount of time, he finally said in a vague tone, "How can I ensure that you won't ruin our plan after you get the news?"
I chuckled. "Because we also need the rebels to contain White Light Bay. We're just a bunch of organizations playing house, trying to wade into public opinion while you're not paying attention. If a real fight breaks out, we won't have the military power to do anything."
That's fake. With Cassina among us, we are not afraid of a fight. It's just that that doesn't conform to Rodini's principle of "minimum cost".
"How about this?" Seeing that his psychological defenses were almost broken, I mercifully let go of his face and said, "This time, we firmly support the rule of White Light Bay. No matter what the rebels do, we will find a way to rescue Katsuna and get the rebels to voluntarily cede some land. How about that?"
The undercover's eyes suddenly opened, "You can do this?"
I bared my full eight teeth. "Of course, Bai Wuyong is a senator from Upward City and firmly stands on your side."
Hehehe, Bai Wuyong is Bai Wuyong, and he has nothing to do with me, Bai Wuyin.
With my repeated assurances, the undercover agent was finally willing to give in.
"The adults originally intended to send me to deal with the traces on the body. As for the mineral products, it's just in case."
I tried to grasp the key words, "Just in case? Could there be other problems during the negotiation?"
The undercover pursed his lips and whispered, "It's for Sergeant Guchiga."
Kasa, who had been standing behind and listening, suddenly stood up and asked, "What?"
"Sergeant Guqijia has been educated by the government since childhood, so it's impossible for her to harbor thoughts of rebellion! If something happens in Baideng Bay, she will be more worried than anyone else!"
"But she had already begun to suspect the culprit behind the first special material bomb drop," the undercover agent said. "Shortly after the adults dropped the shrapnel, Sergeant Guchiga reported the problem to his superiors. The adults dismissed it."
"But she's too stubborn. Until the 15th, she was still relentlessly investigating this matter. If General Kasena hadn't disappeared, she would have definitely traced the matter back to the White Lantern Bay people!"
Kasa's brows were tinged with anger. He strode forward and grabbed the undercover's collar. "So you completely ignored her contributions to White Light Bay over the years?"
"She wanted to investigate further, but how did she know it was White Light Bay that dropped the bomb? As a sergeant in the military zone, as a loyal soldier under White Light Bay, what did she do wrong?"
"She did nothing wrong!" The undercover agent was pinched by the collar, breathing hard, and his cheeks were flushed red. "That's why she was targeted by the adults in Baideng Bay!"
Kasa's anger was completely ignited. He pressed the undercover agent against the wall and wanted to draw his gun.
I quickly stepped forward and held down her hand, "Kasa! Calm down!"
Seeing that the situation was not right, Ali took the initiative to step forward and forcefully separated Kasa and the undercover agent.
Each person stands on one side, and no one can move.
Kasa, who was being held down, said: "...If you grab the back of my neck again, I will die with you."
Ali looked disapproving, "You can't beat me."
Kasa choked.
After putting the two men back at a distance, I patted Kasa on the shoulder and continued talking to the undercover agent.
"Keep going, White Light Bay is definitely going to do more than one thing tonight."
The undercover agent lay on the ground, catching his breath for a moment, before speaking in a hoarse voice, "This negotiation is crucial. The adults know it's not good to keep the white ore secret any longer, so they plan to bring the jury members in. The establishment of a new city requires the active contributions of the people of Keya District, and you're a senator elected from Keya District. So, after much deliberation, the adults want to reshuffle the Upward City and bring the jury and others into their circle of interests. The rebel leader is part of their plan."
The undercover licked his lips, "That's all."
I leaned back and slowly exhaled from my chest.
What a big pie, what tempting benefits.
It is simply the apple of the Garden of Eden, and everyone who comes here can't wait to take a bite.
There's a major reshuffle going on in Upward City. I'm a senator elected from the Keya District, so you can imagine how high I could climb if this goes through. Forget about the jury; as long as time permits, I'd even stand with the people from White Light Bay.
Rolatini, you have also calculated this, right?
If I hadn't resisted the temptation, would your undercover agent hiding in the military zone have shot me immediately?
When I thought of the group of people hiding in the dark and staring at my temples, I felt a chill down my spine.
If Kasa and Ali hadn't caught the undercover agent before the negotiations and let me know Baidengwan's plan in advance, what would I do based on my personality?
Will I betray you right away? Or will I stick to my principles (even though I have no principles at all)?
In short, it's very complicated, and the side effects of the information gap are huge. I might be completely controlled by Baidengwan.
Seeing that I didn't say anything, the undercover agent thought I hadn't finished asking questions, so he frowned and said, "I've already said everything you want to say. You won't get any more out of me if you ask me again."
I nodded, rubbing my brows tiredly, "I know."
"Ali, get rid of him and find a place to bury him."
The undercover's eyes suddenly widened. "What? You want to kill me?"
"I'm an important person in contact with Baideng Bay. If you want to kill me, the adults in Baideng Bay will definitely notice it!"
I scoffed, "So? You've seen everyone here, and you still expect me to keep you alive?"
"As for what the people of White Light Bay noticed... that's something for the rebels to worry about."
He wanted to say something, but Ali twisted his neck cleanly.
"Ah!" Yosir, whose presence was extremely low, finally couldn't help but let out a small cry of fear, attracting the attention of several others.
"You're so timid, brother." Qi Yuan said jokingly, "It's better to watch less of these scenes in the future."
"It's none of your business!" Yosir glared at Qi Yuan fiercely.
Perhaps it was the special aura between the rivals, the two disliked each other since they met. If it wasn't an important occasion where it was not suitable for quarreling, they would have already started fighting.
I didn't want to bother with them, but looked at Kasa.
The alpha female had calmed down, but there was still some anger between her brows.
Receiving my gaze, she forced a smile and said, "Are you kidding me?"
I answered irrelevantly, "Are you going to tell Sergeant Guchiga?"
"What?" Kasa asked knowingly, "Tell her what? The fact that Baidengwan wants to kill her? Do you think she believes it? Given her stubbornness, do you think she will wait for the people from Baidengwan to kill her, or kill the people from Baidengwan in return, or will she…"
After saying this, Kasa's smile could no longer be maintained, and only cold anger remained.
"I guess she'll commit suicide by swallowing a bullet." I finished the rest of her words.
Kasa's breath became even lower.
"Let's go back," I whispered. "Disappearing for too long will attract the attention of other undercover agents."
"Um."
Before leaving, I carefully instructed Ali on how to deal with the undercover's body and how to arrange the burial site.
Ali wrote it down carefully.
After leaving the autopsy room, Kasa was not in the mood to talk to me and just left.
Qi Yuan had other work to deal with and didn't even have time to have a fever with me, so he could only flirt with me behind Yosir's back.
"What are you going to do?" Yosir asked in a low voice, holding my hand.
I glanced at him sideways, "Josier, what do you want me to do?"
Yosir pursed his lips and stopped when he was about to reach his room, "You look down on me?"
This little pervert was about to go crazy again, so I immediately leaned over and kissed the corner of his mouth.
"Josier, don't be so extreme," I said. "Actually, the people of White Light Bay can do whatever they want, but they absolutely cannot let Carter enter the new circle of interests created by White Light Bay."
"I don't want to marry Noka. You should feel the same way as I do."
Yosir's mood was visibly improved.
He suppressed his excitement and stood on tiptoe to respond to me, "What can I do for you?"
I stroked his cheek, speaking in a calm and tolerant tone, "As long as you can keep this secret between us, that's enough. Yossier, I'm a senator, and many people are watching me, including your uncle."
"But I promise that as long as the military zone thing is done, my plan to cancel the engagement with Noka will be half successful. And for the other half, I have to rely on you."
The beta boy's eyes were misty. I kissed his fingertips, my eyes full of love and request for him, "Yosier, you can help me, right?"
"No one else can help me, and no one else understands me. Only you know my true identity. I can feel that you love me the most, right?"
"Of course I love you the most!" Yosir couldn't wait to catch up. "They can't prove it. No one can keep a secret for you."
"Especially that bitch Kanoka, his brain is empty and he will definitely be exposed! But I won't, I'm different from others, I know how to keep a secret!"
I smiled faintly, "I know, I understand, Yossier."
After sending Yosir back to the room, I wiped my lips with my sleeve.
Eating food is indeed delicious, but money and power are more delicious.
After checking the time, I returned to my room to prepare materials for tonight's negotiations.
On August 20, at seven o'clock in the evening in the military zone, negotiations between Baidengwan and the rebels began again.
Those present at the scene included Sergeant Guqiga, the representative of the military zone, Bai Wuyong, the senator of Upward City, Carter, the foreman of the Upward City jury, the representative of Baideng Bay, the leader of the rebel party and his deputy.
Cutler and White Light Bay representatives were connected remotely via video.
Sergeant Guchiga and I walked side by side in front, while Kasa and Xiaolin were a step behind us.
Due to negotiation needs, the two sides temporarily built a closed residence near the mine, with their respective soldiers on both sides.
The military zone was very quiet at night. I passed by soldiers with guns, and looking at their expressionless faces, a strange sense of humor was tickled somewhere in my heart.
"Cough cough!" I coughed twice.
