e heard. We'll see what they say."Yuan Chongming said.Everybody agreed, since we already found the reason and the task was essentially completed.Then everyone started their arduous descent. As always,..."Right now, things are complicated with Guang Hai. You should lay low for a while. Don't worry about settling down just yet, even if you want to find a partner. Just wait until this sensitive period passes."

Yang Bin also had a headache.

"Big Brother Yang, please rest assured, I said I wouldn't hold you back, I will definitely do it."

Three days later, Yang Bin's face was grim as he gathered everyone together and began to speak:

"We will leave Kuang Hai tomorrow and return to Ping Bei City."

Some people were surprised and looked at each other. Then the leader of the action team stepped forward and asked directly:

"Captain Yang, are we finished with this mission"

"We did what Guanghai asked us to do, and the rest is none of our concern. However, I think they probably messed up."

"Was it just because that middleman was killed"

"Yes."

Yang Bin didn't conceal anything, nor did he need to.

Have they found the killer

Someone asked directly.

"People openly left a mark, it's the blood peony!"

Ripple deliberately opened her mouth wide and asked:

"Who is the mysterious intelligence broker in Pingbei City"

Yes!

Why did she kill John Lee

"Because John Lee gave her false information!"

"She's a bit too arrogant!"

But no one could catch her, and I suspect she's in Guanghai City right now.

Yang Bin frowned and offered his speculation.

"Then Captain Yang, we should return to Pingbei City first!"

Ripple spoke softly.

"Humph! Your intelligence department is just a bunch of cowards!"

That hot-tempered player said.

"I was just following orders from the captain. Don't be so broad in your accusations. Since you're not afraid of death, why don't you apply to stay and help capture Xue Mo Dan"

Ripples retorted unceremoniously.

"You"

"Alright! I'm not looking down on you guys, but with your abilities, you're really no match for Blood Peony. Ever since this mysterious woman appeared, she hasn't lost a single time. Whether it's the information she wants or the people she wants to kill."

A hint of sarcasm flashed in Yang Bin's eyes as he directly pierced through the facades of those in the action team who thought they were above it all.

Of course, if you wish to make a good impression, you can apply to stay and assist our colleagues here at Guanghai. I certainly won't stand in your way.

Hearing this, the members of the action team immediately shut up. As strangers in a strange land, they could easily be treated as cannon fodder. It's best to go back to their own territory!

The next day, the group sailed back to Pingbei City. When the ship entered the harbor, they found it sealed off. Boats of all sizes were docked at the port, unable to enter or leave. They managed to get ashore smoothly, but they too were detained and subjected to an inspection.

The members of the SWAT team were so angry that they could scratch their teeth. After enduring the interrogation, they returned to headquarters at midnight to report back.

Liàn Yī returned to the office and called Zheng Lín, telling him she had safely returned to Píngběi City and that he should be careful and safe when carrying out his mission. After hanging up, she waited for her department head's questions.

After Yang Bin returned, it was her turn. But as an assistant, she didn't know anything. She just followed orders and completed the tasks assigned to her in just five minutes.

According to Yang Bin, you've gotten close with Zheng Lin, the team leader of Guang Hai's operation.

Wei Yi folded his arms and smiled, saying.

"Chief, our relationship is a legitimate one and we're just getting to know each other. It's also a private matter, so does it need to be reported"

"No, just asking randomly."

"Oh, he was introduced to me by Brother Yang. We chatted for a bit and I thought we had good conversation, so we went on a date once. Then things happened over there, and we were both recalled, so we didn't even get a chance for a second meeting."

Liàn Yī said, then she pursed her lips.

"I heard that something happened the day after your date."

"Yes, we were already supposed to have a second meeting, but this whole thing completely ruined it."

“I understand, you guys just got back. Rest for two days first.”

Ripple bowed and then turned to leave the chief's office.

After she stepped out, her eyes flickered. This Wei Chang's concern was a bit too much.

The next day, Lian Yi learned from Yang Bin that the National Army in Pingbei City had lost a batch of ammunition and was under strict martial law to search for it. This was also the reason they accepted money when they returned.

After hearing this, Lianyi was astonished. However, deep down she knew that Lao Zhou and his group had made a move. This time, the KMT's effort was in vain.

In June of the year following Japan's surrender, the Kuomintang openly tore up the agreement with the underground party, officially launched a civil war, and began a large-scale crackdown on underground party members. For a time, China was once again shrouded in the shadow of civil war.

At this time, the ripples were incorporated into the Action Assistance Group, responsible for cooperating with them in finding the underground party's radio station, and her partner was that Qianqian.

The two of them were the kind that disliked each other at first glance. Lian Yi felt that this Qian Qian, despite not having participated in any major operations, had fashioned herself as a core member of the action team.

Qianqian thinks that Lianyi, being this cowardly and incompetent teammate, is a disgrace to the Action Team. She should have been kicked out long ago.

Has Captain Zheng Lin contacted you

Qianqian said intentionally.

"It's none of your business whether or not we get in touch!"

"You must have been dumped and are still trying to act tough."

"Tsk, it hasn't even started yet, how can he ditch me"

The ripples said nonchalantly.

You two, if you keep chattering away, get out of the car!

In the end, it was the leader of the action team who spoke up, and the two finally stopped their process of revealing each other's shortcomings.

"Humph!"

Ripple hummed softly, turning her head away directly without looking at Qianqian.

"Captain, we have a discovery! There's radio wave activity in this area."

A monitoring officer immediately said.

At this moment, all eyes in the car turned to the person who spoke, picked up their earphones, and listened.

Ripple also picked up the headphones and listened for a while. The corners of her mouth twitched. This was a public channel, with messages being sent by underground party members. They were actually using this way to contact her and wanted to meet her.

"Can you decrypt the message content"

The acting captain immediately asked.

"It takes some time."

"Where are we located"

"There are some difficulties for the time being, but it should be within three kilometers of here."

The inspector gritted his teeth and replied.

But this area is a bustling city center, it would be very troublesome and unrealistic to find a place here. In other words, it's impossible to pinpoint a location.

"First, we need to decipher the contents of the telegram."

"Yes!"

Ripple took off his earphones, sat down on the side as a wallflower, not showing any intention of helping at all.

She didn't know how long the underground party had sent the message, but she only received it now.

That night, she transformed into a peony and went to the meeting place she had left behind, Hu Qian's safe house for escaping trouble. There, she encountered someone unexpected.

The man across from him stared intently at Lian Ri's face, which was as beautiful as a peach blossom, and her signature red peony patterned cheongsam. He opened his mouth and asked:

"You are the Blood Peony!" step down from the chieftain position. Within the limited time I have left, I will do my best to provide you with the greatest possible assistance.”The chief made his advantage clear, also implying...
