âNo problem. Itâs been a long time. Iâll take you somewhere so you can relax.â
Evans looked at his watch and spoke.
âWe donât have time. Iâve booked a seven a.m. flight and Iâm going back to headquarters. Letâs just stay nearby and find a place to rest.â
âWhy are you in such a hurry? Did something happen?â
Walker didnât say anything else. He led Evans toward the restaurant next to the airport.
âFang Dezong and Fang Shihong are both dead. It was the Central Guards Brigade who did it.â
âCentral Guards Brigade! Thatâs impossible!â
Walkerâs expression was not very good. His expression was exaggerated.
âI remember that there was a very powerful person beside Fang Dezong. He looked like he was going to reach B-class soon. With such a person protecting him, how could there be any problems?â
âThe man named Dai Yongxiang was also killed. The Central Guards Brigade is serious this time,â said Evans. âWe underestimated their determination.â
âAre you sure this was done by the Central Guards Brigade?â Walker said seriously with a cigarette in his mouth.
âI donât think the Central Guards Brigade would do such a thing over a woman. Itâs not worth it.â
âIt makes sense,â Evans said. âBut thereâs something you donât know.â
âThis time in Shianggang, I found out that Lin Yi from the Central Guards Brigade is not dead. Heâs still alive and well.â
âOh my God!â
Walker exclaimed, âDidnât he inject the C-class serum? How could he still be alive?!â
Evans shrugged. âI donât know about that. Regardless, heâs not dead, so thereâs a good chance he did it.â
âBut heâs only D-class. Even if he took the C-class serum, he wouldnât be able to maintain his C-class standard after it loses its effect. How could he kill Dai Yongxiang?â
âThatâs the strange thing,â Evans said.
âHowever, after such a thing happened, thereâs no point in thinking about this anymore. What to do next will still be decided by the headquarters.â
Walker didnât say anything else because he realized the seriousness of the matter.
This was the first time in more than ten years that they had taken action against Huaxia. They did not expect it to be so difficult.
It was not a good sign.
âAlright, donât think about it anymore,â said Evans casually.
âHow are things going in Sunrise Land? Were there any problems?â
Walker shrugged, his expression disdainful.
âItâs just a small country. What problems could there be? Donât worry about me.â
âWhen are you going to do it?â Evans said. âWhatâs the plan?â
âWe canât go too far. Mitsui Group is not an ordinary family. With their influence on the global stage, if we donât control them well, the consequences will be very difficult to clean up.â
âIâve thought of all these things, so I only arranged a small car accident to injure her slightly. As for the rest, Iâll leave it to the Mitsubishi Group.â
âMitsubishi Group? Youâve made contact? Youâre really something.â
âThe enemy of my enemy is my friend. The two financial groups have been fighting openly and covertly for so many years. They canât wait for something to happen to Caie Mitsui. Of course, theyâd be willing to do this.â
âThis is also a good idea. In Sunrise Land, if we can borrow the power of the Mitsubishi family, it will be of great help to our operation. However, there is one thing to be careful of. After this matter is over, we must integrate all the combat strength of the Yamaguchi-gumi into our hands. This is an order from the headquarters. We must control the Yamaguchi-gumi 100%.â
âYou know me, man. Iâve got this covered. It wonât be a problem.â
âIf it was in the past, I wouldnât say anything. However, a lot of things that have happened recently have exceeded my expectations, so I have to be careful.â
âI know what you mean, but Iâll do it myself this time. Iâll be fine. But I donât think the Yamaguchi-gumi thing is the point of the mission,â Walker said.
âItâll take at least a week for the ingredients of the serum to be metabolized completely. Heâs still useful to us. Are we just going to let it go like this? What did headquarters say?â
âIâm going back to discuss this with headquarters,â Evans said.
âHowever, my guess is that headquarters might not give up so easily. You have to be prepared. They might send you over.â
âThatâs great. I canât wait,â Walker said excitedly.
âYouâre a real belligerent guy,â Evans said.
âIf we make another move, weâll have to infiltrate Yanjing. Itâs a dangerous job.â
âI know it will be very dangerous, but Iâm also looking forward to seeing if the Central Guards Brigade can restrain me.â
Afterward, they ate together. Walker put Evans on the plane, then drove alone toward Toyo.
âYouâre still alive after being injected with the C-class serum. Iâm already looking forward to meeting you, Team Leader Lin.â The corners of Walkerâs mouth curled up as he muttered to himself.
â¦
Mina Ito brought Lin Yi to the suburbs ten kilometers away from Toyo.
At this moment, the sky was already beginning to brighten, and the air was very good. As far as the eye could see, there were green plants everywhere. There was also a lake not far away, which was pleasing to the eye.
Mina Ito stopped the car on the road and pointed at a villa in front of her.
âMr. Lin, thatâs Yoshitomo Kyomotoâs residence.â
âKeep driving. Iâll go meet him.â
âThere are strict guards here. If we drive any further, his people will notice,â Mina Ito said.
âWeâre all civilized people. If something happens, we naturally need to discuss it calmly. Just drive straight in,â Lin Yi said with a smile.
Mina Ito hadnât interacted much with Lin Yi and didnât quite understand his thought process.
But in this matter, he was in charge, so she had to follow his instructions.
Following Lin Yiâs directions, Mina Ito drove to Yoshitomo Kyomotoâs manor.
However, less than a hundred meters in, they saw two men in black uniforms standing in the middle of the road, blocking their way.
âWho are you?!â One of them said sternly.
âGo and report that we are from the Mitsui family and have some matters to discuss with your leader.â
âThe Mitsui family!â
Upon learning Mina Itoâs identity, the expressions of the two guards became formal.
âWait here for a moment. We need to report this.â
âOkay.â
The two parked the car aside and waited patiently.
About twenty minutes later, one of the guards approached them and said, âOur leader asks you to come in.â
Mina Ito nodded without saying much, then drove Lin Yi towards the interior of the manor.
For Lin Yi, this matter was a breakthrough point.
But how much information he could extract from Yoshitomo Kyomoto would depend on his own abilities.
