Chapter 190 Getting Better
After Lianyi performed a play with the Kuomintang members, she returned to school smoothly. At this time, there was only one day left before the official start of classes.
After saying hello to the teachers she was familiar with, she returned to her dormitory. After settling everything, she went to the wonton stall to eat and found that the person who had been following her had left.
The people who were following her must have discovered that she was forcibly taken into the car that day. Since they were in the same industry, they naturally knew who did it, so they simply withdrew the people. This also made it easier for Lianyi's operation. However, someone from the Kuomintang was watching her, but she said she didn't care.
That night, Lianyi changed her clothes again and appeared in the bar. Her appearance made the whole bar quiet for a moment. The cheongsam with a red background and white peony was so distinctive that it was hard not to recognize her.
These intelligence officers are no pushovers. They naturally know that those who followed this person before never returned. They are just buying and selling intelligence and don't want to risk their lives.
Lianyi ignored the vague gazes of the crowd, walked over swayingly, sat in front of the bar, and said:
"Give me a Bloody Mary."
"Okay, wait a minute!"
The bartender still remembered Lianyi, so he quickly mixed a glass of bloody wine and pushed it in front of Lianyi.
"Miss, please enjoy your meal."
Lianyi picked up the wine glass and took a sip. Then a short man with a thin figure and bright eyes came over, holding up the red wine in his hand and said with a smile:
"I am the Baron, what is your name, young lady?"
"peony."
"I am very interested in the information in your hands, Miss. I wonder if you have made any use of the information in your hands?"
The man asked very politely and courteously.
"What a pity! You are a step too late, Mr. Baron. The information I have has already been sold."
Lian Yi spread his hands.
"That's a shame. If you have any new information, Miss Mudan, you can always come to me. I'll buy you a drink today."
The man who called himself the Baron raised the glass in his hand and gestured.
"Since you said that, I can't let you buy me a drink for nothing. I do have some new intelligence in my hand, which is a list of assassinations. If you are interested, you can make an offer to me."
After hearing this, the baron's eyes flashed and he immediately asked:
"I wonder which party this hit list is targeting?"
"Japan."
The ripples stop there.
The Baron heard it, as did the intelligence brokers who were listening closely, and even the bartender.
"Ms. Peony, I am very interested in your list."
The Baron said immediately.
"It's still the same old rule, the highest bidder wins."
Lianyi took a sip of the bloody red wine, pursed her lips and smiled.
"OK."
"I'll come back in a few days."
After saying that, Lianyi put down her glass, picked up her handbag, and left the bar briskly. This time no one dared to follow her.
There was only a man who had been in the corner. After Lianyi sat down, he left the bar first and hid in the shadow at the bar door. When he saw Lianyi coming out, he fell far behind her. After turning an alley, he lost sight of her.
"Are you looking for me?"
Lianyi's hand rested on the man's shoulder again, and the man swayed before standing still.
"Yes, the intelligence you gave us last time is very important. In order not to expose these comrades, we changed the negotiators."
"I saw it! So, what's your reply?"
Ripple continued to ask.
"After careful research, we have decided to accept your joining. I can take you to meet my upline now."
Before the man could finish his words, he was interrupted by Lianyi:
"No need. Although the information I gave you this time is correct, you still doubt my intentions, so don't rush to swear in and join. I will only contact you through a single line. When I need to pass on information, I will find you."
Lianyi refused bluntly. Trust needs to be built up step by step. This time she just took the first step. They need to continue to deepen their cooperation in the future. She is not in a hurry. This is just the beginning.
The man obviously didn't expect that after waiting for so long, the other party actually gave him such an answer.
"In the near future, the Kuomintang will assassinate high-ranking Japanese generals. If you have planted pawns around these people, arrange to evacuate as soon as possible and don't get implicated. This information is given to you for free."
Lianyi patted the other person's shoulder and turned away.
When the man turned around, the mysterious woman was gone.
After Lianyi left the bar, she went directly to John Lee's private residence. Since she was now a person selling intelligence, how could she only have one piece of valuable information in her hand? John Lee was the best person to provide her with information.
She jumped over the wall into John Lee's yard and went straight to the lighted study.
Because it was already late at night, the servants in the mansion had all gone to sleep, so she sneaked in very smoothly.
John Lee had been recuperating for a long time since his last defeat at Lian Yi's place, and had only recently started to move again. At this moment, he was looking at the documents in his hands, and the next moment he fell asleep on the table.
Lianyi then climbed into the room through the window, picked up the small stone that knocked the other person unconscious, and pulled out the documents that Johnley was pressing under him.
The document was all in English, which happened to be the original body's strong point. She read through it quickly and her eyes became a little unfriendly.
Because this is a purchase agreement, Country M will engage in arms trade with the Kuomintang, selling to the Kuomintang advanced weapons and ammunition capable of arming a division.
Lianyi looked at the contents of the second document again. The transaction time between the two parties was actually set after the surrender of Japan. She couldn't help but think about it. It seemed that Country M had planned it in advance and wanted to provoke a civil war between the Kuomintang and the underground party after the defeat of Japan.
After Lianyi finished reading the documents on the other person's desk and restored them to their original state, she left quietly again. When she returned to the school dormitory, it was almost dawn.
For the next period of time, Lianyi did not go anywhere. She just taught and educated students with peace of mind and did her essential job as a teacher.
A month after school started, Yilin finally contacted her and asked her to go to Fuyun Building in the evening.
Lianyi changed into men's clothes and went to the place where she had agreed to meet Yilin.
"Instructor Yilin, is there any mission?"
"Yamamoto is coming to Fuyunlou for dinner, but there have been rumors recently that Japanese generals are on a hit list, which makes our operation more difficult. And Yamamoto is notoriously afraid of death, so he brought a lot of guards. We have to re-formulate the assassination plan."
Yilin said somewhat displeased.
Lianyi, the person who leaked the news, pretended to be surprised and said:
"We haven't taken action yet. How did they know about this plan? Did someone in your party leak the information?"
He is really good at playing the trick of the thief crying "stop thief".
"It's none of your business. Just finish today's mission first."
Yilin said with a sullen face, although what the other party said was right, she didn't want to admit it.
Lian Yi shrugged helplessly and said:
"You are my instructor, I will do what you say."
See you tomorrow~
