Chapter 222: The Emergence of Nation M >
""Yes, my lord, I shall prepare at once."Upon hearing that the Empress had permitted him to leave Zhu Xiu Yuan, Xian Shi Jun immediately straightened his face and replied, wishing he could set off rig...As soon as Yang Bin heard this, he knew that this mission could only fall on him. He put down the newspaper and teacup in his hand, then opened the folder and started reading.
Ripple took Yang Bin's work out of her own volition, she had a purpose. She wanted to access more information so that she could deduce what she desired from seemingly unrelated news. Now there was a convenient excuse, one she wouldn't waste.
Back in the office, Wei Yi finally dropped his facade. He had really been careless this time. The excuses he just made were prepared after he was sure Eileen was following him. He never expected it to involve Peony this time.
He had reason to believe that Eileen had tracked him down, discovered the whereabouts of Peony through this, and then began to make a big fuss about arranging people to search.
It seems the previous location is no longer safe. He needs to find a secure rendezvous point as soon as possible and figure out how to notify Peony.
"Chief, the summarized information has been handed over to the Analysis Department."
A man reported to Eileen.
"Okay, I understand. Go ahead and busy yourself!"
After the others left, Eileen's face darkened. She had been unable to find any trace of the Blood Peony before. This time, after tracking down Wei Yi, whose behavior was unusual, she discovered the whereabouts of the Blood Peony. She felt that there must be some connection between the two.
Either the two knew each other, or there was a transaction between them. No matter which, she would keep a close eye on Wei Yi, she didn't believe the other party wouldn't have any flaws.
As professionals, we've all been trained and definitely have some experience in this area.
In the coming year, conflicts between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party escalated on the front lines. Negotiations broke down, and both sides decided to use force to determine who would be the ultimate ruler. Once again, China fell into war.
Since the start of the war, the Intelligence Department has been in chaos. Ripple came into contact with more information, and after professional analysis and screening, she would pass on useful messages.
Every time Wei Yi received the mysteriously appearing information, he would observe for a period of time. After several instances, he was certain that Peony either had someone at the Kuomintang headquarters or had planted her own people here, but he never found their trace.
Every time he cast a suspicious gaze upon Ripple, he would shift his target after three days. It was simply that Ripple left such a deep impression on him, especially from their training experience.
In his view, Wu Lianyi was a patriotic student studying abroad, even somewhat naive and idealistic. Currently, the struggle between the two parties went against her idealization, so she was somewhat passive and slacking off. After completing her own share of the work, she started to be lazy. In his words, she wasn't ambitious.
If the other party is Peony or someone she has placed, they definitely wouldn't be so negative. They would definitely use their identity as a cover to obtain more information.
Unbeknownst to him, the ripples were now communicating with the millstone.
"Nineteen, does the original body still want to come back"
She was just simply curious.
She doesn't want to now.
The millstone answers truthfully.
Why
She was afraid that if she returned, she wouldn't live past three days.
"Tsk, quite self-aware! So she went to reincarnate"
"Yes, after our last conversation, I found the original soul and talked to her. In the end, she decided to leave behind what little soul power she had left and give herself a chance to be reborn."
The stone mill took credit for itself.
"You've worked hard!"
In the second year of the civil war, Qingyang was occupied by the underground party. People there evacuated to Pingbei City and tried every means to regain control of Qingyang, but unfortunately, none of their plans succeeded.
They could only hold onto Pingbei City and send people to negotiate, hoping to divide Huaguo equally and rule their own parts. When Lianyi saw this information, she showed a sarcastic smile. This was just the Kuomintang's delaying tactic.
As the Nationalist Party (KMT) is losing ground on the front lines, they have begun seeking foreign aid, and at this time, the United States has emerged. Their motives are self-evident.
Wei Yi also got the same result. After sending the information back, he began to collect information about Country M.
When ripples went to see Andrew alone, she unexpectedly discovered that Eileen was in contact with an MI intelligence officer. She narrowed her eyes and turned to see Andrew.
"Miss Peony, you are here!"
Andrew extinguished the cigar in his hand, knowing that Peony disliked the smell of tobacco.
Over the past two years, Peony hasn't appeared at gatherings as often, but every time she has, her information has been accurate. This led Andrew to believe that Peony had sources within both the Nationalist Party and the Communist underground; otherwise, she wouldn't be able to obtain information from both sides.
But every time Peony bought something, the messages were all over the place, everything and anything. Even Andrew couldn't tell who she was working for or who her backers were.
Also because of this mystery, Andrew has always maintained good manners and never dared to be rude to Ripple.
"Mr. Andrews, excuse me! I'd like to receive some messages today."
After Ripples sat down, she got straight to the point.
Of course, Miss Peony always brings me good luck whenever she comes.
"Could you introduce me to the new intelligence officer from M country"
Ripple smiled and asked.
After hearing this, Andrew's eyelids twitched, and he tactfully suggested:
"Miss Peony, your affair with John Lee is over. He has paid the price he deserved. I think it's good to leave some room for things."
"Andrew, you're joking, am I that out of line John Wiley has taken responsibility for his own mistakes. I'm just making a deal with M country."
Rill chuckled and said.
“It seems I misunderstood. Then I'll help you make an appointment with the other party.”
"At this time tomorrow, I will come again."
After Ripples finished speaking, she grabbed her bag and left.
This time, M's intelligence officer was David. After listening to Andrew's words, a strange light flashed in his blue eyes, and he immediately asked:
"Does she have to make a deal with me, and I have to accept I still remember John Lily's death."
"Dear David, I suggest you don't refuse so abruptly. As an intelligence broker, the most important thing is to get the information you need and help the clients you serve. Anything is negotiable, all information has a price, it just depends on whether you can afford it."
After hearing this, David pursed his lips and lowered his eyes, as if seriously considering whether or not he needed to meet.
While the experienced Andrew saw through David's thoughts at once and spoke directly:
"I'm a businessman, but I don't want to offend anyone I can't afford to. Since I introduced you two, I have to guarantee the safety of Miss Peony and yours."
"Do you mean that peonies would be harmful to me"
David said, a little displeased.
"No, unless you want to harm her, then all the consequences will be yours alone. Don't say I didn't warn you. John Lee gave her two false leads, and even though he fled to Guanghai, he still died at the hands of Peony."
And the five Japanese intelligence dealers who had previously plotted to keep Miss Peony alive, all died, each killed instantly.e holster inside his jacket indicated that he carried a weapon.Fu Qianyi immediately moved closer to Situ Yi and then whispered:"With the police here, I feel a bit more at ease. Please take good care...
