Chapter 194 Forced into the Game
be on hand later to deal with Father's business partners. As for the yamen, just let Wu An keep an eye on things in secret. We'll wait until the body is sent to the funeral home."This time, the rippl..."It must be a Nationalist Party member."
Miyata immediately picked up the key point in Ren's words.
It seems that Teacher Wu knows more about things than we realized.
Liàn Yī some startled waved her hands, then explained:
“After that negotiation ended, the KMT people came after me. They didn't say a word and forcibly took me to a training camp. They forced me to pass the training, or else I wouldn't be able to leave alive. After I barely passed the assessment, they let me join the intelligence department, and then released me.”
"Remember that place"
"I was taken there blindfolded, and when I left they also covered my head. I only remember the drive took about three hours, and the road was bumpy and uneven."
The ripples pretended to be reminiscing.
What kind of training did they give you
“My physical fitness wasn't good, so they only trained me in shooting. The rest was stuff like intelligence gathering and message transmission.”
The ripples answered truthfully.
"How long have you been there"
"It was just one winter break."
After hearing this, Miyata's face flashed with sarcasm. A truly skilled intelligence agent needs at least a year of training, and that assumes the candidate is already exceptionally talented. What could possibly be accomplished in just one month At best, they'd be cannon fodder.
He suspected the other party was the scapegoat prepared by the Kuomintang for this assassination, a pawn in their game. However, it also presented him with an opportunity to turn the other party against them.
"Those drill instructors who trained you, do you still remember what they looked like"
The ripples nodded, mainly describing Eileen's appearance. Miyata didn't react after hearing it and immediately asked about yesterday's events.
Yesterday I had a day off, so I woke up a little late. When I opened the door, I saw a note asking me to buy some signature dishes from Fuyun Building. After reading it, I burned the note and went out.
Then you were harassed by those corrupt thugs, creating chaos. Your comrades assassinated Commander Yamamoto and Major Fujiki, but left you behind.
The body you just saw, after our military doctor's examination, died of a sudden heart attack. If he hadn't died, you would have!
"What does it mean"
Ripple raised her head in surprise.
"Aren't you smart enough to figure that out You are their recruited intelligence operative. Even if the assassination is successful, you as a participant can't walk away unscathed. And such an obvious feint tactic, we will find out your involvement sooner or later. When that happens, once you die, even if we want to investigate further, we won't be able to."
"What you're saying is, they treated me as expendable from the beginning. Even if they weren't caught after completing the mission, they would have killed me to silence me"
Ripples covered her mouth and spoke.
"Looks like you're not stupid!"
"Why! I've at least been on their side."
The ripples said, somewhat dejectedly.
For those people, you are a pawn that can be discarded at any time!
"Ms. Wu, do you want to live and leave here, and seek revenge"
Miyata tempted her.
Through today's interactions, he was certain this woman was easy to control. After all, she was a woman who had never experienced bloodshed. She had studied abroad, but that experience also made her somewhat idealistic. Once ideals clash with reality, her faith easily crumbles. This is precisely what he would exploit about her.
"I am just a teacher. How can I fight them I don't even have a chance to resist."
The ripples said dejectedly.
"How is that possible You have the makings of a good informant."
Miyata patiently guided.
"But I didn't do anything, I just bought two signature dishes from Fuk Yuen Building."
The ripples continue to be confused.
"You are only there to assist them in completing their mission. The conflict you created drew everyone's attention, allowing them to successfully assassinate our two officers."
This time the ripples didn't make a sound.
"You could consider becoming our informant, occasionally selling some Nationalist Party information to us. You'd have an income and be protected by both sides, so no one would dare bully you afterward."
Miyata has made it very clear.
"But they've already abandoned me, and now I'm captured. How could they possibly believe me If they knew I was gathering intelligence for you, I'd probably be dead by the time I left this place."
Ripples rubbed her fingers, looking somewhat dejected and said, "She feels like she's always going to die."
"No, we'll take care of the cleanup. The colleague you knew in the morgue will be the perfect cover-up."
Kyota smiled and said.
Upon hearing this, ripples' eyes lit up, her expression changing rapidly before she finally asked:
"Are you sure you won't cross the river and demolish the bridge, just like the KMT, using it and then discarding it!"
Even if we are defeated and withdraw from here, how do you know we don't have a chance to make a comeback Besides, the Nationalist Party and the underground party aren't exactly bosom friends at the moment.
What's wrong with leaving yourself an escape route It's human nature to look out for oneself; if you want to live and get away, you can only agree to my terms.
Miyata's words were very straightforward.
Ok!
Ripple ultimately seemed to be persuaded, letting go of all her strength and agreed to Miyata.
And the cunning Miyata not only had Rin sign and seal her testimony but also forced her to shoot those hooligans who were provoking her, completely holding her by the strings. Then he sent someone to notify Eimin University, asking them to guarantee that Rin would leave.
This time, it was the head of the school affairs who came out. He felt that Lian Yi was truly plagued by misfortunes; in less than a year, she had encountered so many things.
After returning to school, Lianyi went to see Principal Wu and briefly explained what had happened. She then asked for three days off to adjust her state before giving classes to the students again. Principal Wu nodded in agreement, but as he watched Lianyi leave, he seemed thoughtful.
Irene received the news immediately: Ripples was alive and had left the headquarters in Japan. It wasn't surprising, to say the least. She went to find Lieutenant Wei and proposed the idea that the other party might have defected.
"Go see her and then we'll talk."
Wei, the deputy officer, didn't rush to a conclusion.
That evening, Eileen and Vice-Officer Wei managed to reach Lianyi's dormitory. They carefully pried open the door lock and slipped inside when "pop, pop" two muffled gunshots rang out. The shots came from suppressed guns. The two immediately rolled to the ground, and a muffled groan still escaped Eileen's lips.
"Ripple, I am Vice Officer Wei."
Wei, the deputy officer, had seen many battles and reacted quickly. Using the faint light from the window, he saw that it was Ripples who fired the shot. He immediately revealed his identity but kept his gun in hand. If the other party continued firing, he would naturally return fire.
The next instant, the desk lamp lit up, and the three of them could clearly see each other's faces.
"Instructor Eileen, do you even have the face to come looking for me!"
The tone of the ripple question is something everyone can hear.
At this time, Yilin covered her injured right arm and glared at Lianyi with a sinister look in her eyes, saying in a low voice:
"I'm here to clean house!". Therefore, the arrival of Ripple's group was met with considerable hostility.From the moment they settled into the pickup car after landing, they were met with hostile stares from those around them....
