Chapter 223 Surfaced
"She was just made into a myth by you. After all, there is only one person."
David said with some disdain.
Then he saw Andrew's slightly unhappy expression and immediately added:
"Please rest assured, Mr. Andrew. I know the rules here and I will not make things difficult for you."
David assured.
Andrew also understood what the other party meant. What the other party meant was that nothing would happen in his territory, and after leaving here, it would no longer be his responsibility.
"Good luck!"
Andrew saved the words of exhortation and just let the other party hit the wall on his own. Only when it really hurts, will he believe it.
David raised the wine glass in his hand, drank it and left the party directly. Although he did not take the Blood Peony seriously, it did not mean that he would be careless. Some preparations still needed to be made.
The next day, Lianyi called Andrew in the afternoon.
Andrew tactfully told Lianyi that David agreed to meet, but he seemed to have other plans, so she should be careful.
Lianyi understood the hidden meaning of Andrew's words. After hanging up the phone, she muttered "old fox" and went to the cocktail party.
She discovered something unusual on the way. There were many more people from the action team on the street, and some obvious strangers were wandering around. Although these people were well disguised, they were a little disappointing in front of Lianyi, a master of disguise.
Lian Yi's expression remained unchanged. She immediately returned to the headquarters and went directly to the Intelligence Gathering Section.
As expected, the Intelligence Gathering University office was empty, but she heard noises coming from Irene's office, so she walked over and knocked on the door.
"Come in!"
Irene's voice came from inside.
Lian Yi saluted after entering. Looking at Yilin who was fully armed and preparing to go out, she said calmly:
"Section Chief Yilin, our section chief asked me to tell you that the news you received about Blood Peony appearing at tonight's cocktail party is false."
After hearing this, Yilin paused while putting on her coat, turned around in surprise and asked:
"How did you know that?"
"Commander Yilin, I don't know the details. If you have any questions, you can ask our section chief directly."
Yilin frowned, and then decided that it would be better to ask clearly. Wei Yi might know some inside information. Intelligence personnel like them all have their own sources of intelligence.
"but."
Lianyi deliberately lowered her voice, took two steps forward, and said mysteriously:
"I heard the chief talking on the phone. It seemed that a man named David wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife and wanted to use our intelligence department. As for what feud this David had with Blood Peony, I didn't hear it clearly."
A flash of anger flashed across Yilin's eyes, and then she said coldly:
"You actually eavesdropped on your superior's conversation."
"Chief Wei opened the door and didn't avoid me, so this doesn't count as eavesdropping!"
Lian Yi rolled his eyes and muttered:
"You asked me, and then you put the blame on me after I told you. You are so difficult to please."
Yilin was too lazy to pay attention to Lianyi and was ready to ask for clarification. Although she wanted to kill Xue Mudan, she didn't want to be used as a gun by David.
Lianyi subconsciously stepped aside and let the officer walk in front. Then she struck Yilin with a knife and knocked her unconscious. She closed the door and locked it, then put the person on the chair.
Lianyi quickly searched the entire office, but after finding nothing, she finally turned her attention to the unconscious Yilin.
The other party was so persistent in capturing Blood Peony, probably not just because of Li Li's death. She always felt that there were other reasons. She knew that if she asked Yilin directly, the other party would definitely not tell the truth, so she simply knocked the other party unconscious.
Since she couldn't find the answer in the office, she looked for clues on Yilin.
She searched Yilin's body thoroughly, but found nothing except the gun and dagger. Lianyi was not discouraged and even checked her accessories, but still found nothing special.
Lianyi flipped the other person's body, but he didn't control the force well and directly tore the back of her collar. Then he found a tattoo in the middle of her shoulder blade on her back.
The moment she saw the tattoo, she connected all the clues together, because there was an identical tattoo in the same position on Fujiki Jiro's body.
This is what the original person saw when he was being bullied. He resisted fiercely and scratched the other person's back, and then he accidentally discovered the existence of the tattoo. He was even beaten up for this and had to lie in bed for three days.
Looking at Irene in front of her, a hint of murderous intent flashed in Lianyi's eyes. It turned out that Irene was a spy lurking in Japan, and her relationship with Fujiki Jiro must be unusual. As an intelligence collector, she must have known that Fujiki Jiro died at the hands of Blood Peony before the agreement was torn up.
The Japanese officer she planned to shoot that day was just a pawn they discarded in order to allow her to hide deeper, and the appearance of Fujiki was an accident, which Irene did not expect.
Lianyi seized the opportunity to avenge her original body and clear the obstacles at the same time, but Yilin lost an important companion, so she kept holding on to the Blood Peony.
When she saw Irene meeting with an intelligence broker from Country M at the cocktail party, she began to doubt the purpose of the meeting between the two parties. However, what Andrew said on the phone, as well as the members of the action team on the way to the cocktail party, all proved that it was David who contacted Irene.
David probably didn't know about the personal grudge between the two parties, and thought he could use the Kuomintang's pursuit of Blood Peony to help him kill Blood Peony.
Lianyi looked at the tattoo of the rising sun and dealt with it decisively. This time, she stuffed Yilin into the wooden cabinet in the office, locked the cabinet, and then locked the office door. After making sure that no one saw her, she picked up her bag and left.
At night, Lianyi changed into a black nightgown and quietly went to the ambush place of Country M, sending all these people to see their God. After completing this, she put away her Lei Yao dagger, then dialed the phone at the cocktail party and asked David to answer the phone.
"Hello, Mr. David, I'm Peony."
Ripple's voice came into David's ears through the receiver. The other party tightened his grip on the phone, then pretended to be calm and said:
"Hello, Miss Peony. I've heard of your great name for a long time. Andrew told me that you wanted to discuss a deal with me. I've been waiting for you for a long time. When can you arrive?"
"I'm sorry, I'm afraid we can't meet today because Mr. David is not sincere, so I canceled the meeting. But I have prepared a gift for you, I hope you like it."
After saying that, he chuckled and hung up the phone.
David on the opposite side suddenly felt his heart tighten, and a bad premonition came to his mind. He seemed to have thought of something, and then his face changed. He threw down the phone and hurriedly left the party.
Half an hour later, he went to see Andrew with a pale face.
"Andrew, they're all dead!"
David talks without any context.
But Andrew understood, and he could vaguely guess what David had done.
"Dear David, you have angered Blood Peony, which is not a good thing!"
See you tomorrow~ I’ll wait for your comments in the next dimension.
