But the men in black were getting closer and closer. Just then, the retired employee suddenly stopped and said to Ayu, "Girl, I'll hold them off. You go quickly, don't worry about me. You must survive and find out the truth!" After saying that, he turned around and rushed towards the men in black, deliberately getting entangled with them to buy Ayu time to escape.
Ayu's eyes instantly reddened. She knew the retired employee was risking his life to protect her. Tears welled in her eyes as she ran desperately in another direction. Using her familiarity with the surrounding streets, Ayu weaved left and right, finally managing to shake off the man in black. But her heart was filled with guilt and worry. She didn't know how the retired employee was doing, or if he had met with misfortune because of her.
Hiding in a corner, Ayu gasped for breath. She secretly vowed that she could not back down like this. She had to find a way to rescue the retired employee and completely uncover the mystery of his origins so that those who were hiding in the shadows would be punished as they deserved.
Chapter 8: Seeking Help
Ayu knew she was outnumbered and outmatched, with no way to deal with the mysterious organization alone, let alone rescue the retired employee. After much thought, she remembered Lin Yu, a private investigator she had met at a business event. Lin Yu was quite famous in the industry, known for his intelligence, resourcefulness, and decisiveness, and had handled many difficult cases.
Ayu found Lin Yu and told him everything about the mystery surrounding her background and the dangers she had encountered. After listening, Lin Yu frowned, but his eyes gleamed with excitement. He became very interested in this complex case and felt that there must be a shocking secret hidden behind it.
Lin Yu said, "Ayu, don't worry, I'll help you with this. But we need to sort out the clues first and see where we should start." As he spoke, he asked Ayu to bring out all the information she had collected, and then they began to carefully organize and analyze it.
After some research, Lin Yu discovered that the mysterious organization seemed to have financial dealings with some underground banks, which might be a breakthrough. He said to A Yu, "We can start with the underground banks and investigate the flow of funds of the mysterious organization. Maybe we can follow the clues and find out their hiding place and the mastermind behind them." A Yu thought Lin Yu's words made sense, so the two began to investigate the relevant matters of the underground banks.
However, their investigation did not go smoothly. Information about underground banks was highly confidential, making it extremely difficult to obtain useful clues. But Ayu and Lin Yu did not give up. They visited various places, searching for people who might know the inside story, and painstakingly dug out clues bit by bit.
Chapter Nine: Mysterious Force
As Ayu and Lin Yu painstakingly investigated the underground bank, they discovered that another force was also secretly investigating the same matter. This mysterious force operated with great secrecy; every time Ayu and Lin Yu were about to get close to the clues, they always managed to make a move first, as if they always knew everything in advance.
Lin Yu found this matter very strange. Through some special channels, he inquired and learned that this mysterious force might be an international business investigation organization. They seemed to be investigating the illegal activities of the mysterious organization, but their specific purpose was still unclear.
After discussing it, Ayu and Lin Yu decided to try to contact this mysterious force to see if they could reach a cooperation agreement. After all, their goals seemed to be aligned, and perhaps their combined strength would be greater. After some effort, they finally made contact with one of the leaders of the mysterious force.
The person in charge sounded very serious on the phone. He said, "We are indeed investigating the mysterious organization you mentioned, but we have our own principles and missions. You can cooperate with us, but you must assist us in completing a mission." Ayu and Lin Yu exchanged a glance, feeling a little uneasy. They didn't know what the mission would be, nor were they sure if the cooperation was reliable.
Chapter 10: Cooperative Mission
The leader of the mysterious force told Ayu and Lin Yu that they needed their help to infiltrate an auction controlled by a secret organization. Ostensibly an art auction, the event was actually a venue for the organization's illegal business transactions and intelligence gathering. They instructed Ayu and Lin Yu to find a document containing the organization's core secrets and smuggle it out.
Ayu and Lin Yu were well aware of the danger of this mission; once discovered, they would be trapped in a tiger's den with no chance of escape. However, in order to obtain more information about the mysterious organization and to uncover the mystery of their own origins as soon as possible and rescue the retired employee, they gritted their teeth and agreed.
In the days that followed, Lin Yu made full use of his network of connections and managed to obtain two invitations to the auction. He also prepared some special equipment for A Yu and himself, such as small instruments that could interfere with surveillance equipment and specially made backpacks that were easy to hide documents.
The two began to repeatedly study the auction venue layout, planning their infiltration and escape routes, and anticipating various contingencies they might encounter and how to deal with them. Even with all this preparation, they were still filled with unease, after all, they were facing that mysterious and dangerous organization.
On the very day they were preparing to go to the auction, Ayu suddenly received a mysterious text message that read: "The auction is a trap, don't go." This message was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, instantly putting Ayu and Lin Yu in a dilemma.
Chapter Eleven: A Difficult Choice
Ayu held her phone, staring at the mysterious text message, her face turning deathly pale. She looked up at Lin Yu, her eyes filled with hesitation and worry. Lin Yu frowned, pondered for a moment, and then said, "I don't know who sent this message. It's possible that a mysterious organization has discovered our plan and is deliberately trying to scare us into giving up; but it's also possible that someone is genuinely warning us, not wanting us to be in danger."
