r fringe planets. Your class's trip there was unexpected, but when they learned that Hill Zhao was among you, these space pirates became greedy and wanted to kidnap Hill in exchange for star coins."Un..."Dare not"
John swallowed nervously. " Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"No, you think that leaving Pingbei City will allow you to escape me. You're being naive."
R ripples said with a smile.
At this moment, she stood behind John Lee, one hand gripping his neck, the other slowly stroking his cheek.
John shivered involuntarily, a wave of goosebumps prickling his skin. He knew that if he didn't handle this night well, there wouldn't be a tomorrow for him.
"It's true, I don't know your contact information so I couldn't notify you. I also don't trust Andrew, so..."
"Mr. John Lee, don't rush to explain. Tell me what I want to know, and perhaps I will consider sparing your life."
"Okay, the weapons deal has changed. Payment and the weapons are handled in two different cities to avoid detection. Cash is delivered in Guanghai, and the weapons are in Qingyang. The exact locations will only be revealed an hour before the transaction."
John Lee immediately said.
Her ripples eyes turned, her mind racing through the streets they had surveyed and the operational area of the Guanghai Action Team. Her gaze hardened, and she said coldly:
You are not engaged in financial transactions on the high seas, but rather setting a trap here to capture people. You're targeting underground party members, and the news about arms dealing is deliberately spread by you to ensure that the underground party believes it. To guarantee this, you first intentionally gave me false information and then nervously left Pingbei.
Then someone told the Nationalist Party about a planned arms deal, and the Nationalists wanted to give the Communists a taste of their own medicine. So they cooperated by moving personnel to both locations, creating an illusion of an impending deal. At the same time, they intercepted information about a robbery attempt, so they strengthened their defenses. Am I right"
The ripples lowered their voice, and whispered to Johnley.
His heart skipped a beat, and the ripples that brushed his hand on his neck also felt the faster rhythm of his carotid artery. He smirked, then continued speaking:
I overlooked something, deals don't always need cash. The money should have been deposited into Citibank by now, right
John's eyes rolled incessantly, brewing his words, when suddenly he felt fingers on the back of his neck begin to constrict, squeezing painfully. At this point, he couldn't care less about anything else and blurted out:
"Miss Peony's guess was right, I was just cooperating by releasing the news."
The ripples subsided, and the hand that had been gripping tightly continued to ask:
"Where is the weaponry actually stored"
A small number are in Qingyang.
It was used to lure underground party members into the trap.
"Yes!"
What about the rest
"In in"
John hesitated for a long time, but didn't say where it was.
I think I should be in Pingbeicheng.
Ripple shared her guess and then quickly withdrew her fingers, sending John Lee to meet their God.
After John Lee's death, his face still held a look of surprise, as if he were bewildered that the other party had guessed correctly.
Ripples closed the other person's eyes, lifted them onto the sofa, and placed them in a lying-down sleeping position. She even thoughtfully covered him with his suit jacket, creating the illusion that he was exhausted and resting in the study after work. She also left her signature mark, the unique symbol of Bloody Peony.
Then, Ripples used John Lee's phone on the table to dial Lao Zhou's home number. As soon as the other party answered, she immediately said:
“It was me. The information was wrong. This time it was the KMT and M country working together to set a trap. You should immediately notify your comrades involved to withdraw. The transaction funds have already been deposited into Citibank, and the weapons should have been transported to Pingbei City. It’s best you activate other comrades in Pingbei City to investigate.”
This call of mine will expose your location. You'd better evacuate immediately and have someone else at that address contact me.
Ripple finished what she wanted to say and hung up the phone without waiting for a response.
The shorter the time, the more time the other party has to spend finding it, and this also gives Lao Zhou and his team more time.
Lao Zhou listened to the beeps in the receiver, stunned for a moment, then immediately got up and relayed the message. Since he learned about the transactions between the Kuomintang and Country M, intelligence had been constantly updating, making it hard to tell what was true or false, but he still chose to believe Peony.
On the other side, Lian Ri relayed the news through a phone call back to Pingbei City. She rushed back to the cinema just in time for the film's ending. She gently leaned Zheng Lin's head against her shoulder and continued watching the movie.
As the film ended and the lights came on, the couples leaving the theater saw her gently patting the man on the shoulder, waking him up. He looked back at her with an understanding expression, after all, it was a love story, and watching it had lulled them both to sleep.
When Zheng Lin woke up, he saw Ripples' somewhat resentful gaze. The other party pursed her lips and asked:
Let me know if you need any further translations!
"Brother Zheng, did you fall asleep at a certain part If you find it boring, no need to stay with me out of obligation. You can just tell me to leave together."
Zheng Lin was a little puzzled and confused. He couldn't remember how he fell asleep. Looking at the departing couples with their playful glances, he cleared his throat and said:
"Sorry, I'm just too tired. I'll definitely watch the whole movie with you next time."
"I understand. Let's wait until there are movies you're interested in, and we can watch them together then!"
The ripples spoke thoughtfully.
"OK, I'll take you home."
Zheng Lin politely sent Lianyi back to her temporary residence before leaving.
The next day, Lian Yi hummed a tune from the movie, ate breakfast in high spirits, which made Yang Bin's teeth ache.
"Did your date go well yesterday"
"That's good. Besides watching the movie, Captain Zheng fell asleep, but that was a romantic film, I guess he didn't like it. Next time, I'll choose one that he likes."
R ripples smiled and said.
They waited until noon, when the leader of this operation's responsible person came to see Yang Bin with a serious expression. The two talked in the room for ten minutes, after which Yang Bin left the room with a somber expression and gathered all the participants of the mission together. Then he said:
"This operation may change, for now everyone please stay in your rooms until we figure out the situation, then we'll make further plans."
What does this mean We're under house arrest
"At least we're colleagues. Even if there's a problem, at least let us know the reason!"
"Come on, that's not fair. We're here to help, not to be mistreated."
A hot-tempered member of the action team immediately became unhappy.
“Just relax, this has nothing to do with us. It's just that the middleman died inexplicably, and they're afraid this operation will go wrong, so they called it off at the last minute. Let's just wait.”
Everyone calmed down after hearing Yang Bin's explanation and went back to their rooms.
Then Ripples came up and asked:
"Big Brother Yang, is this serious Won't it affect us Who is the middleman"
"I'm not sure, we just have to wait for news, but you met the middleman, John Riley, at that night's party."
"What So it's him. Luckily, I didn't choose him. He's such a short-lived person!"
While surprised, Liàn Yī still couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark, causing Yang Bīn's eye to twitch.bably set her sights on the current mistress of Sū Nyü Palace, Sù Mín Yí, wanting to take over Sū Nyü Palace and force her to hand over her inner strength to help her stay young forever."The results h...
