Chapter 10: Doubt and Temptation

"Understood, I know, I'll tell him. (_)" The waiter hung up his phone and returned to the table.

This is a table of mahjong, and the other three people present are Kou Linzai, Ju Sheng and Luo Hu.

After answering the phone, Shi Shi sat back in his seat, and sighed: "Something happened on the border of Golden Eagle County. โ€

"What is it that wants to alarm your bureau chief and the old man to call you personally?" Kou Linzai saw him sitting and began to continue to draw cards.

"Do you know the four masters of the HL European Division?" asked Shi Shi.

"Oh, Luca's four students, a little heard. Ju Sheng continued.

Luo Hu added: "If I remember correctly, Lieutenant Colonel Faro was killed by a blood lord in Venice earlier this year. โ€

"About twenty hours ago, the remaining three came into contact with one of the divisions of the Iron Order. The waiter said.

"Hmph...... Let me guess, all dead?" Luo Hu's tone was very disdainful.

"Two people were captured, and the strongest Miao Long ...... He was killed. The waiter said.

"Is this news reliable?" Ju Sheng's expression did not change much.

"In those twenty hours, of course, it has been repeatedly confirmed, because one of them is a murderer, so they immediately attracted attention after losing contact with the local branch, and the situation was directly reported to the higher-ups, and later the headquarters also urgently contacted several undercover agents embedded in the Iron Commandment, and only then did they get accurate information. The waiter said.

"In other words, there are people with abilities higher than the fierce level in that division?" Luo Hu was still wearing sunglasses in the room, but when he said this. Apparently it has taken its eyes off the mahjong.

Kou Linzai didn't jump to conclusions, he thought for a while and asked, "Those three people raided the opponent's army alone, and didn't bring troops?"

Shi Shi replied: "Yes, it turned out to be a smash." โ€

"Hmph...... Then it's hard to say. Even if he is a fierce ability, he may not be killed by someone stronger than him, if he is hit head-on by a missile, or if he is hit by heavy firepower, he will not be able to hold on. Kou Linzai analyzed.

Luo Hu said again: "But Director Tang doesn't seem to think so, otherwise he wouldn't have specifically contacted our Mr. Hero." โ€

"First of all, please stop calling me that way......" said the waiter, "and secondly, the old man's thoughts are similar to those of the lord. Of course, it is not excluded that there is a secret master in the Iron Commandment that we don't know about, but that is not a reason for him to contact me. โ€

is still a good chance of winning, and has a very keen sense of military smell, hearing this: "The key is that the location of the incident is a little bad, right?"

Luo Hu looked at Ju Sheng. He quickly understood: "Does this mean that the steel precept on the side of Dragon County is going west next?"

"That's absolutely impossible. Kou Linzai first expressed his denial, but then changed his words and said: "But at the sensitive period when Bai Sรจ lightning was betrayed, such an incident happened on the border of Golden Eagle County, which is really imaginative...... Ah, mushy. With that, he folded the cards down.

Luo Hu asked in a skeptical tone, "Wait...... What do you mean by 'absolutely impossible'? What do you know?"

"Hey...... Hey......" Kou Linzai smiled: "Chief Luo." We asked you to play mahjong because we treated you as a person in a boat, can we not expose the true nature of the intelligence officer at every turn. โ€

"Yes. Luo Hu's answer was simply concise, and after a second he said again: "But please answer my question." โ€

"Huh...... Good. Kou Linzai picked up the gourd that was placed in the corner of the table. Take a sip: "Actually, don't you already know the answer to this question?" His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince once told us personally that after the collapse of the alliance between the Iron Discipline of Asia and the White Lightning. Will immediately head north to Twin Eagle County, and will not attack westward. โ€

"Your Highness has said this. But that's just a prediction, whether it's accurate or not, it's just a prediction. Judging from the current situation, the overall action of the Iron Commandment is indeed in line with His Highness's predictions, but His Highness has never said that it is 'absolutely impossible' for them to go west. Luo Hu said.

"I didn't say it in front of you. Kou Linzai put down the gourd, licked his lips, and burped.

"What did you say?" Luo Hu's eyes changed under his sunglasses.

Shi Shi smiled: "It's not surprising, he hasn't talked to me about it, after all, the lord is a confidant." โ€

Kou Linzai turned his head to Shi Shi and said, "You are also a confidant, but there are some things that His Highness thinks it is better for you not to know." โ€

Luo Hu thought for a moment, and said in a cold tone: "Lord Kou, are you hinting...... There is some collusion between His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince and the high-level leaders of the rebel organization to exchange information?"

The waiter also realized it in hindsight, and he looked at Kou Linzai, waiting for an answer.

Ju Sheng stood up from his position and wiped his sweat with a handkerchief: "It's suddenly getting a little hot, I'll go out and smoke a cigarette...... Ay...... I'm old, and I'm weak. โ€

The three of them tacitly agreed, stalemate and silent, waiting for Ju Sheng to walk out.

After the electronic door closed, Kou Linzai spoke again: "Chief Luo, should you even have to investigate His Highness? Couldn't Your Highness install some undercover agents with one-line contact with him in the Iron Commandment?"

"Of course, I did speculate so, and I didn't have the suspicions I just said. Luo Hu said: "However, after the incident of His Highness's last transaction with the boss of the Reverse Cross and letting him go, as well as the 'impossible' sentence you are saying now, I have to reconsider all the situations so far, integrate the intelligence, and analyze it again." โ€

"Huh...... It seems that you think more deeply than the waiter, which is good. Kou Linya picked up the gourd again and poured himself a mouthful.

Shi Shi said: "What kind of deal? Cha Xian and Tianyi have met again?"

"About half a month ago, it was a secret meeting, so the people I brought were all from Chief Luo's department. Kou Linzai said.

"Does he really have a deal with the Resistance?" the waiter's eyes widened, he felt that Krauser was becoming more and more strange, and that the former HL Special Agent seemed to have become a different person. If it was the tea fairy back then, it would be hard to imagine what kind of deal he would make with criminals.

"Otherwise, where do you think the figure of Selz Ain came from? Now that there are more than half of the enemy-occupied areas on the earth, how can you find them? Besides, there is a vast sea of people, even if he is in our territory, this army is in chaos, and the bureaucrats everywhere are busy transferring property all day long and have no time to do so, who has the ability and leisure to help us find people?"

The waiter was thoughtful and muttered to himself, "It was the reverse cross that found him...... And then give it to us?"

Luo Hu continued: "After that transaction, my subordinates reported to me the situation of the day, and at that time, I thought that His Royal Highness the Prince only considered that Tianyi's strength was difficult to arrest at all, so he would give an order to let him go. With his hands in his pockets, he stood up and paced around the room: "I thought a deal was a deal, and I had made many deals with the Resistance, and sometimes in order to achieve the goal, the trade was inevitable, and it was just a momentary act of taking what each needed,

But if we keep in touch for a long time, exchange information, and even secretly give assistance, then the quality is different, then it becomes cooperation, which sounds like cooperation, and from our point of view, it is collusion and chaos in the party. โ€

Luo Hu stood behind Kou Linzai and said in a deep tone: "His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince has indeed publicly predicted that the Iron Ring will go north, but if what you say at this moment is true...... He once said to you privately that the other party would never go west. One of his hands rested on the back of Kou Linzai's chair: "It doesn't sound like speculation, but it has accurate information...... A kind of intelligence that is theoretically impossible to obtain at all. From my point of view, unless Cesare Balmond personally informed this decision, even if my undercover agent sent such information about the strategic direction, I would not be completely convinced, and I would need to make a careful judgment. His tone became sharper: "Is your 'impossible' really from His Highness's mouth?

I have to say that Luo Hu is an extremely terrifying person, and even the waiter sitting opposite feels pressure.

"It's very out-of-the-envelope, Sir Luo. Kou Linzai still showed a relaxed expression: "From the attitude and words in my sentence, I can do this, although I don't know your department very well, but as the highest commander of the intelligence department, I can be regarded as a master or two of your methods, which is admirable." โ€

"The department I manage is not just about intelligence. Luo Hu replied: "Of course, I have no comment on what I am responsible for. โ€

Kou Linzai shrugged his shoulders and continued, "But I don't mind giving you a definite answer. That's right, His Royal Highness the Seventh Prince has indeed told me with great certainty that the Iron Ring of the Dragon County will definitely go north at present, and there is no intention of expanding into the Middle East at all. He smiled and said, "As for his self-confidence, and the source of the information...... Hehe...... You still ask His Highness himself, I just chose to believe him. โ€

Before Luo Hu could speak, Shi Shi stood up first: "I just want to tell him about the Golden Eagle County, can you come along?"

Luo Hu said: "Of course, the sooner things are done, the better." He glanced at Kou Linzai and walked towards the door with the waiter.

Shi Shi replied: "It's a good saying, those who value time are talents. โ€

After they left, there was only one Kou Linzai left in this room, he took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Krause, which read: "I just found an opportunity to test, and I can basically rule out the possibility that Luo Hu is undercover, but he and Shi Shi have something to do with you, you can watch and deal with it." โ€
