Chapter 221: Re-emergence
pitch-black alleyway, disappearing quickly.At this moment, a figure stealthily walked out. He watched the person who was hurrying away, hesitated for a moment, then lightly and silently followed after...After the ripples turned and left, he didn't rush back. Instead, he went to a new intelligence trading spot, Andrew's hosted party.
The sudden appearance of ripples caused quite a stir among the information brokers at the entire gathering. No one expected him to be here, and so brazenly at that.
As she entered the reception, several Nationalist intelligence brokers exchanged glances. One of them prepared to slip away quietly and inform the Nationalist action team.
The ripples seemed like a random sweep, but she knew the other party's intentions. She picked up the wine bottle from the waiter's tray and threw it at the man who was about to leave with one hand. The man was caught off guard, and as the bottle shattered, he was knocked unconscious.
On-site informants all frowned, feeling that this Peony was too domineering. However, no one dared to confront her.
When Andrew learned that Peony had arrived, he rushed out of his office and just happened to see the scene where she knocked someone unconscious.
"Beautiful Miss Peony, who was so thoughtless to anger you, causing such a stir"
Andrew smiled and walked up to them.
"Several of the Kuomintang's lackeys dared to sell my information, thinking I wouldn't dare to kill them"
Ripple said faintly, while also glancing at the remaining few who were getting restless.
These people were swept by the ripples of the eye wind, their faces tightened instantly, and they didn't dare to move rashly. They knew in their hearts that Guang Hai's comrades had searched the entire city without success, and the other party was now openly appearing here. This was the other party's skill, and also a provocation to them.
If they really spread the intel now, they would be dead before they could leave here. The other side isn't afraid to kill people in the intelligence trading places, just look at the Japanese intelligence brokers as an example.
"Miss Peony, please don't get angry. Just give them a warning, for my sake. Don't let there be bloodshed here. It took so much effort to rebuild this place."
Andrew said with a smile.
Of course, otherwise I wouldn't be a warning.
The ripples nodded, which was a way of giving Andrew face.
Immediately, Andrew asked the question everyone was thinking:
"Miss Peony, John Lee"
He gave me fake information, more than once. It almost made me lose trust in people. I paid him the intelligence fee in advance. Shouldn't he continue to sell fake intelligence
The ripples said unconcernedly.
“”
Andrew didn't know what to say. He believed Johnley's actions were definitely not his personal choice, and he had also reminded Johnley not to provoke this peony lightly. Unfortunately, the M country behind him was unwilling, and now that Johnley ended up like this, he wasn't surprised.
"I'm a fair person, everyone is trying to make a living. Buying and selling information fairly, but if you want to cheat me with fake information, that won't work!"
The ripples are meant for Andrew, but also for everyone at the party.
She said this, Andrew believed it, and so did the other informants. John's backers weren't soft, they even hid in Guanghai, but ultimately it was Peony who killed him. They couldn't stand up to John's backers, nor did they have the guts to go head-to-head with Blood Peony, so they still played by the rules, at least they could afford the information fee.
After that night, everyone in the intelligence world knew Miss Peony's modus operandi. In the following days, the intelligence brokers who sold her information had a success rate of over 70%.
"What a talent, he actually managed to return to Pingbei smoothly and even went to the intelligence trading place. This is blatant provocation!"
The leader of the action team was slamming newspapers on the table, apparently quite angry.
"What does the Information Department do Aren't they the ones who arrange people in the information trading market Why haven't we heard back"
"It was arranged, but the person was knocked unconscious by Xuelian right there. She also threatened the rest of them. They don't have the skills and courage of our action team, so they were scared off and just watched Xuelian leave."
"What a waste!"
The captain muttered under his breath.
The Intelligence Department also has casualties, naturally, it's Eileen from the Intelligence Gathering Division.
Also present was Wei Yi. Only after Director Jiang finished reprimanding the others did Wei Yi speak up:
"If the Intelligence Gathering Department is overwhelmed, our Analysis Department can share some of the workload, Director Eileen. You don't have to keep an eye on me all day."
Eileen frowned upon hearing this, and said in an unpleasantly displeased tone:
"Director Wei, what do you mean When did I stare at you"
"No Did I get it wrong The day before yesterday, I clearly saw you asking people door-to-door in the Zixia Road area. I happened to go there a few times recently."
Someone is getting rid of some antiques, and I'm very interested in them. I want to buy them, but the price hasn't been agreed upon, so I went back several times. Once would be fine, but every time someone was following me! I'm not stupid, how could I not notice
Wei Yi said faintly.
"I did go there a few times, but not with you. I received information that traces of the blood peony were spotted in that area."
Irene stated plainly.
"It seems I misunderstood. But I remember that capturing people is the job of the Action Team. It's not that I don't trust your subordinates, it's just that with their skills, they might accidentally get your esteemed general involved."
"You"
"Alright, I'm still here! You two stop fighting and making the action team look like fools. Each of you should manage your own people and do your own jobs. If there's another time, don't blame me for getting tough."
Jiang Shang's face darkened, and both of them fell silent.
"Irene, pass all the information you've gathered on the blood peony to the analysis department!"
"Yes!"
Eileen reluctantly agreed.
"Wei Yi, analyze as quickly as possible and determine the approximate hiding location of the target. Pass the information to the action team, and leave the capture to them."
Yes, Chief!
Wei Yi readily agreed.
Although Eileen was somewhat unwilling, she still arranged for her subordinates to send the information over. The one who received the information was Ripple.
After she double-checked and signed, when the office was empty, she quickly flipped through the intelligence report provided by the Intelligence Collection Department. Just as she did, she heard footsteps and immediately closed the folder.
Yang Bin walked in, holding a newspaper and his freshly brewed tea. He casually asked:
"I just saw the Intelligence Collection Division in the hallway. What are they here for"
Ripples raised the folder in his hand and said:
"Here's the gathered intel!"
After finishing, he quickly placed the folder on Yang Bin's desk.
Yang Bin said helplessly:
"You're an analyst too, how come you're giving me the task"
"Big Brother Yang, you can rest assured and leave all the other work to me. Only this analysis task really needs you to do it. I'm inexperienced, and if there are any mistakes, it will implicate our entire department."
Liàn Yī said, while gathering up all the other files on Yang Bīn's desk.
"What kind of information"
Yang Bin saw the ripples' actions and knew that the other party was telling the truth.
"Regarding the blood peony, I heard she's already made an appearance. The action team didn't catch her, and they're fuming. I'm afraid I was wrong in my analysis and will be scolded by Eileen again. So, I'll have to trouble Yang Ge."toward the restaurant.Ripple shrugged and followed the three people, right behind them were Hei Ziyu and Situ Yi. The two exchanged a tacit look, and finally came Fu Qianyi with stiff limbs.After arri...
