Gu Xiaohe did not hide it and said bluntly: "It was Commander Han who sent us a message asking us to strengthen our vigilance."
He Nian thought for a moment and suggested, "Seniors, since spies are so hard to find, why don't you just throw out some bait to lure them out?"
Gu Xiaohe's eyes lit up, and she seemed to think this method was feasible.
"Good idea!" Shi Rong nodded, but paused before continuing, "However, this operation requires careful planning and the cooperation of many people. Most importantly, it requires the approval of Commander Han. Also, the more people know about it, the more likely it is to be discovered by spies... It will be difficult to execute."
"Arong is right." Gu Xiaohe also nodded.
Xia Yiran noticed that while the two were talking, their eyes were always catching the passers-by.
A true professional!
However, how come I don’t know when these NPCs from our Cangxia Sect appeared? Brother Tengzi didn’t mention it in his videos…
But it is an intelligence agency after all, and the formation process is very low-key. It is understandable that players do not know the details.
It seems that I have to catch up on the plot... or, go down and ask He Nian next to me.
Xia Yiran glanced at He Nian beside her.
After thinking about it, He Nian said, "Then we should adopt a conservative approach, patrolling back and forth between key locations and strengthening vigilance. Although it is not very efficient, it is the safest way."
"This is the only way." Shi Rong said.
Gu Xiaohe thought for a moment and said, "Indeed, the secret order just now also requires us to cooperate with the investigation. Ah Rong, can you help me for a while? I'll go in and take a look."
"Okay." Shi Rong nodded, but also suggested, "It's best to have more than two people patrolling. If the other party is truly a Nascent Soul cultivator, it would be very dangerous to do it alone."
After hearing this, Gu Xiaohe scratched the back of his head.
Obviously, the spies left behind in the City Lord's Mansion were not enough to form a two-person patrol team.
"Please ask your captain for more manpower." Shi Rong said, "I'm going to inspect the city."
"Hey, hey, hey, we can do it!!" Xia Yin raised her hand.
Shi Rong and Gu Xiaohe looked at the two players.
But both of their expressions showed a slight distrust.
After all, they were just two minor foundation-building cultivators, and they had no experience in reconnaissance.
"You're too conspicuous." Shi Rong said, "People in our line of work must learn how to hide themselves."
"We haven't hidden ourselves yet, have we?" Xia Yiran spread his hands, showing off his plain robe.
This outfit, like Shi Rong's, is from the same civilian style.
Shi Rong pointed at his own face and said, "You two just don't look good enough."
"ah?"
"It's so beautiful." Gu Xiaohe said.
"Ah???" The two were a little bit unbelievable.
While I couldn't believe it, I was secretly happy in my heart.
After all, he was praised for his good looks in person, and he was such a powerful NPC.
"No, Sister Gu is also so beautiful, how can she be so good!!" Xia Yiran said immediately.
"Gu Xiaohe's current role is to act as a visible sentry, while our job is to act as a covert sentry," Shi Rong said. "If she were a covert sentry, she wouldn't look like this now."
“…”
Gu Xiaohe lowered her head and sent a few messages on the jade token.
Soon, I received a reply.
"Arong, don't leave. The captain needs your help to investigate the mansion. The message should reach you soon."
Shi Rong's expression showed some resistance, but he still took out his jade token.
"But there's no one at the door?" Xia Yiran said.
"Can I leave you guys at the door for a while?" Gu Xiaohe asked.
At this moment, the two also received a pop-up task prompt.
Help guard the door until the two of them have finished inspecting the mansion. The reward is 100 contributions per person.
NPCs in intelligence agencies also have the authority to exchange contribution points for help from players, and if you seek help for official reasons, the contribution points can be reimbursed.
Han Zhui has also recently been studying how to combine the players' contribution point mechanism with the intelligence agency's reward mechanism so that the two can communicate with each other.
In this way, subordinates can better understand the value of contribution points.
However, this matter was temporarily interrupted by the opening ceremony of Bei'an New City and had to be put on hold temporarily.
"But!" He Nian suddenly said, "Even two people are not safe! Forgive my rudeness, but if one of you, Sister Gu and Brother Rong, is the spy in disguise, and if you take the opportunity to assassinate the other, then we're all done for!"
Both of them had strange expressions.
"So, I think it's best if we go with you. That way, with more people, the enemy won't dare to attack easily!"
"But this door..."
Xia Yiran's eyes suddenly lit up, and he said, "I have a way to deal with this."
After saying that, Xia Yin ran to the street and blocked a walking couple.
Ye Ao and Mo Ya looked up at the obstacle that appeared in front of them. When they saw that it was Xia Yiran, they were so shocked that they quickly leaned away.
"I told you to find spies, but you're just slacking off and having a relationship, right?"
“No, no…”
"No slacking off? Or no dating?"
“…………”
Neither of them spoke.
It seems that they have tacitly agreed that it is both slacking off and having a love affair.
During the period of passionate love, if one party denies the relationship for some reason, it will make the other party feel frustrated, and it will be very difficult to repair the relationship.
"Okay, I have a task for you."
Xia Yiran pulled the two of them and walked directly to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.
