Chapter 139: The Oath
So, do you want to get rid of him?
Leon looked at the bustling pedestrians outside the window, took a sip of latte, and thought about the problem seriously.
Is it necessary to destroy mules?
He and the mule did not have any personal relationship, the two sides were only mutual cooperation interests, at most they were not very familiar acquaintances.
From the point of view of the possibility of exposure,
The probability of the mule taking the initiative to report to the Secret Service is quite low.
However, it cannot be ruled out that one day the mule was arrested by the Special Affairs Bureau and confessed the connection between Li Risheng and the accident in Dusheng Village.
From the point of view of the hazards of exposure,
The severity of the accident in Watsui Village is quite high, and the Special Affairs Bureau will invest a lot of manpower and material resources in this area for investigation and investigation.
If the identity of "Player Lee Il-sung" is identified as the leader of the accident in Watsu Village,
Then Leon's previous good relationship with the Secret Service would be ruined.
Together with the treatment of Xing Hechou, Epidemic Doctor, Liu Wuxian and others, they can no longer give a certain degree of trust.
At that time, it is very likely that Leon will not be able to trust the teammates randomly matched in the script mission (the teammates are likely to have a background in the Special Events Bureau),
In case things go a little worse, the Special Affairs Bureau will conduct a detailed investigation within the Yin City at any cost.
caused the heavy identity of "student Li Ang" to be exposed
Then, Leon can only use the escape plan he has prepared for several years,
Completely uprooted from his homeland and went to another country.
After all, the case carried by the identity of "Li Ang" is not only one in Dusheng Village
Da, da, da.
Leon's fingertips tapped back and forth on the table, he liked the ordinary daily life of ordinary high school students,
I like Yin City and these people in Yin City.
Unless things get to the point of no return, Leon probably won't take a backup plan to flee.
Only one last question remains.
The possibility of getting rid of the mule.
Leon's computer skills, among all the life skills he mastered, were only average, and he was still a long way from the top in the world.
Even for a wild genius like Leon, it will take some time to catch up with the world's cutting-edge computer technology.
And even if the hacking technology is maxed out, it may not be possible to lock the specific coordinates of the mule - intelligence brokers are better than the other.
What's more, as an extremely life-sparing intelligence broker, the mule will definitely be cunning, prepare the information of all the players he has communicated with in advance, and be ready to distribute it to the forum at any time.
In order to prevent one day your identity from being exposed and being hunted down by players and organizations.
Eliminating the mule at the physical level will not completely erase the threat of identity exposure, and may even reveal more flaws.
While Leon was silently pondering, a new message appeared in his friends list.
Mule: Hello.
Leon's eyes narrowed, but he didn't reply.
Mule: It's a big deal in Wadosheng Village, hahaha
Leon still didn't reply.
Mule: Don't worry, I wasn't caught by the Secret Service. I was quite cautious when I accepted the commission from Lu Maodian, and I did not leave a hand or tail behind. And the friend who introduced me to him was actually one of my trumpets. This kind of "making friends out of nothing" operation is very common in our intelligence broker circles.
Li Ang raised his eyebrows.
In fact, he already knew this information,
When he asked about the pineapple-shaped Lu Maodian in Watsubu Village, he made a point of asking for information about the brokers, but unfortunately he only got some false clues that could not be investigated at all.
Mule: You don't have to worry I'll report your information to the Secret Service. The secrets I carry on my back are no smaller than yours, and some of the customers I have contacted have an unspeakable black history. If I had been so easily caught, I would have died a thousand and eight hundred times.
The words of the intelligence broker are both an explanation and a hint,
It is implied that there is no need for Leon to investigate him, and there is no possibility that he can be found.
Seeing that Li Ang didn't reply for a long time, the mule sent a message again: If you are still not at ease, you can sign this thing with me
With that, a system prompt sounded, reminding Leon that he had a newly received unread email.
When I clicked on the email, I saw an antique sheepskin scroll inside.
[Scroll Name: Hidden Beneath the Water (Party B)]
[Attribute: Consumable (recoverable)]
[Type: General]
[Grade: Rare]
[Special effect: Two players voluntarily (without threats, blackmail, or coercion) take the initiative to sign an oath regarding the confidentiality of a specific information content.] The two parties shall be notarized by the system and agree to jointly keep the content of the information. Any subjective or objective attempt to divulge secrets will lead to irreversible abnormalities in the player's advanced brain processes related to learning and memory and mental judgment, resulting in severe cognitive impairment, and the inability to express confidential content through narration, statement, elaboration, paraphrasing, or arbitrary interaction with external information.
[Cost: None]
[Cooling time: Party B's document will disappear after it is signed, and Party A's original document will be restored every 24 hours.] Only one unsigned pledge can exist at a time. A player can make multiple oaths. 】
[Conditions of use: Both players have the same level of intelligence at the species level]
[Note: When you keep a secret, the secret is a loyal servant; When a secret is revealed, the secret is the culprit]
This recovering scroll item is one of the ways the mule can survive as an intelligence broker in the Killing Field.
If it weren't for this [Secret Under the Water], I'm afraid he would only be able to do black work for the major forces like many intelligence brokers in the old days, doing double-sided or even multi-faceted spy work.
Li Angzai carefully read the content of the oath automatically coded by the system according to the situation of both parties, and after thinking about it, he sent a message to the mule: Yes.
Under the notarization of the system, the two signed the contract at the same time, and the scroll in Li Ang's mailbox immediately turned into ashes and dissipated.
Mule: Alright, now we're grasshoppers on the same rope. By the way, business is business, this is 45 points of in-game currency, please check.
Looking at the final payment from the intelligence broker, the shameless Li Ang couldn't help but smack his lips: Can Lu Maodian pay the balance even if he is dead?
Mule: Why not? Either way, you've completed Lu Maodian's "Resolve Paranormal Events" commission. Besides, he had sent me all the money before, and I had a work ethic.
Shouldn't the professional ethics of intelligence dealers be "eat Party A and eat Party B".
Leon clicked and accepted 45 points of in-game currency and asked the mule, "Why?"
This doubt, it is worth noting, naturally, that the mule does not report his information to the Secret Service in exchange for payment.
The other side was silent for a while, and it took a long time to send a message: First, I have the professional ethics of an intelligence businessman.
Second, I am also on the investigation list of the Secret Service.
Three, I don't want to, and I don't want to, let a player with a super high clearance rating start a 24-hour hunt for me at all costs.
I'm sorry for my life.
