Chapter 164: The Man Behind the Scenes
And what made him even more puzzling was why the targets they had hijacked at least a week ago had not yet been delivered to their employers.
With the abilities of the Yamatai twins, they were able to send the trainee priest and Chaya to the Red Gate's Southeast Asia headquarters, which was not far from here.
But they didn't do it, as if they had completely forgotten about it, and were in a state of ignoring it.
This unusual thing made him even more doubts and doubts rise in his heart.
However, this suspicion was quickly interrupted by Katerina, "No! It must be that bastard of the eagles! ”
As if she had identified her enemy, Katerina gritted her teeth and sharpened her teeth, making an unpleasant "creaking" sound.
'Is this woman really a special officer who came down from the brutal battlefield and has been honed by the information warfare of the intelligence station?' ’
The merchant looked at Katerina, who could almost be said to make a hasty judgment, in disbelief, and couldn't say anything for a while.
'Forget it! After all, this is not something I can decide on my behalf, and at this time, Katerina's Southeast Asian branch of the Russian International Front is not my sister and her corpse! ’
Thinking of this, the merchant gave up his interest in continuing to talk, and Katerina, who was completely focused on revenge, didn't seem to have any intention of going on.
And at this time, Guo Xinyi ran over with the news of reinforcements, and the three of them disappeared into the battlefield full of blood and gunsmoke.
The three of them, Guo Xinyi, and Katerina, who were far away, didn't notice that the faces lying in a pool of blood, blocked by the long green hair that were scattered, had somehow evoked a cold and weird smile.
"Then the commission has been successfully completed, and I think we should also take our leave, Miss Katerina......"
When the merchant followed Katerina and her soldiers back to the café, he took his leave and prepared to leave.
"Well, then I won't send you away, dear Shang!" Katerina squeezed out a smile and said to him.
"Through today's cooperation, I think we will have many opportunities to work together in the future!" Katerina made a promise with certainty.
This is also an important reason why the merchant agreed to help, in addition to using the fighting power of the Russians, and at the same time, he also hopes to establish a relationship with one of the managers of the city, so as to facilitate the 'business' here in the future.
"If there's anything, you can tell it at any time!" The merchant replied with a smile.
However, at this moment, the merchant's smile suddenly froze imperceptibly, and then returned to its original state as if nothing had happened.
Because when she looked at Katerina, in addition to seeing the invisible feelings of sadness, exhaustion, hatred, and anger in her eyes, she also saw a strange red light enveloping her blue pupils.
However, it was soon gone in a flash.
"I hope it's my delusion......" The merchant thought at the time, and said goodbye to Katerina without saying much.
But after returning to the office, when the matter was inadvertently brought up again at the dinner table, Guo Xinyi gave an unexpected objection.
"It's certainly not a delusion!" Guo Xinyi said categorically, but the solemnity in her eyes became more and more obvious at the same time.
"What's going on?" The merchant asked curiously.
"This kind of light is obviously a sign after the ability of the mental operation system is activated!" Guo Xinyi said with great certainty.
As Guo Xinyi, who is also a person with the ability of the same department, this judgment has become very convincing.
"Did you control her?" The merchant asked in surprise, but then realized that it couldn't be like that.
"Stupid little teacher! Didn't you say that the last Shiyin you killed was a mental manipulation ability? Meng Ying, who was listening silently on the side, reacted faster and said after knocking on the head of the merchant master.
"But she's dead?" On the contrary, the merchant was even more puzzled, in his understanding, it was impossible for the effect of the ability to activate before death to continue to be maintained.
However, not all abilities will dissipate after the death of the capable person, on the contrary, many abilities will become more powerful after death, accompanied by the extremely strong obsession of the ability owner.
"Just like Shion, she must have activated her abilities on Katerina before she died, and her ability trigger medium was 'voice' in the first place, so it's entirely possible to do this!" Guo Xinyi continued to emphasize.
"But the problem is, even if she activates her abilities, Katerina can't be unaware?!" The merchant wondered.
"You won't be noticed!" Guo Xinyi still affirmed, "As long as it is not directly the ability to activate the maximum power, it will be slowly imperceptible through words and eyes, and it will be completely unaware!" ”
"Just like your 'hints'?!" The merchant understood something slightly.
"So Katerina must now be mentally hinted at by Shiyin, making her think that everything Shiyin said is true, and feel that she should avenge her subordinates as soon as possible and regain the face that the Russians lost in this incident!"
Speaking of which, the merchant finally understood where the previous discord was going to be.
"Damn! That Yamatai man's conscience is greatly broken! She knew from the beginning that she was going to fall into that step, so she had already prepared the lines to deal with it! ”
The more he talked, the closer he found himself to the truth.
"What she said from the beginning was a lie, and your ability to get information from other places is too pointed!" The merchant looked at Guo Xinyi and said.
"So, the Red Gate or something is a disguise?" At this time, Guo Xinyi was also shocked.
"It can't be said that it is a target, but the red door is also one of the designs." The merchant said with a wry smile.
"In other words, to create a situation in which the Russians have to make a big move, and then let them capture the 'robbers' after they have suffered heavy losses, and through the mouths of the 'robbers', they 'accidentally' learn the 'truth' that everything is masterminded by the Red Gate......"
Meng Ying, who had sorted it out a little, also sorted out the general context of the facts at this time.
"Then when the enraged Katerina and the Red Gate Eagles fight to the death, the real mastermind will show up to clean up the mess, and then take advantage of the period when both organizations have been hit hard."
"If you're lucky, you might even be able to take the opportunity to become one of the new managers! What a sophisticated layout! What a deep scheming! The merchant couldn't help but sigh.
"So, the real mastermind behind the scenes is actually the organization that can gain the most in the shortest time after the fight between the Russians and the Red Gate?" Guo Xinyi asked tentatively.
