Chapter 885: A Chance
While introducing the situation, the hunter Mo Ning led everyone into the villa, placed everyone briefly, and then carried the captives to other places in the villa, which should have been to settle the captives.
"Wait a minute, I'm going to the black market. Leo took off his coat, found some dry firewood, and lit the fireplace in the living room of the villa as he spoke his thoughts to Sylvia, "I'll see if I can buy some useful information from the black market?"
Before Sylvia could speak, Tessa Mocha on the side couldn't help but shout: "Are you crazy? Didn't that person say just now? The black market here has been infiltrated by the Imperial Secret Department, and you go to the black market to buy the information of the royal treasury, isn't this equivalent to sending it to your door?"
Sylvia, though also confused by Leo's approach, felt that Leo must have had his own ideas, so she looked at Leo and listened to him explain.
"Don't worry, they won't know I'm buying the Royal Treasury materials. Leo didn't explain much, just said it briefly, and then motioned to Sylvia not to ask more.
Seeing that Leo had already made a decision, Sylvia didn't ask any more questions, turned around and took off the bulky and extra warm clothes on her body, and began to pack her luggage.
It didn't take long for the hunter Mourning to return to the villa's living room, only this time he had changed into a butler's clothes, and he also put some makeup on his face and a thick beard, looking like a well-trained middle-aged butler, and it was difficult to associate him with the unkempt hunter just now.
Seeing that Mister and Randall were still a little restrained, Mourning explained, "That youngest son of Earl Duncan will only come here occasionally in the summer, and will not come at other times, so you can stay here in peace." ”
As he said this, his gaze also swept over Leo and the others, and instinctively remembered the appearance of several people.
Although he trusts Sylvia immensely, and also thinks that the people Sylvia trusts, he can also trust, but his professional instinct as a spy makes him can't help but start looking for information in his memory that can correspond.
He soon found information on Mister and Randall, whose names and information were included in the list of UK intelligence services as experts in the Black Forest.
It's just that Leo and Tessa Mocha are not in the information he has, but in his opinion, since Leo and Tessa Mocha can pass with Sylvia, and Sylvia's attitude towards the two can be faintly seen on the way to the villa, it can be deduced that the two definitely have an unusual identity, and this identity may not be known by a spy of his position.
Just when Mo Ning was observing Leo and the others, Sylvia, as a former instructor, naturally easily saw through the mind of her student, and she didn't stop it, because she knew better that whether it was Leo or Tessa Mocha, their information was not in those semi-public materials, but stored in a higher-authority archive.
"What has happened to the Franco-Empire in recent months?" asked Sylvia at the right moment.
Monin's attention was also pulled out of his thoughts by this question, and after a little thought, he told him some of the news he knew.
By the time Sylvia left Veron, the continent had entered a brief period of peace, at least on the surface, the warring sides had stopped their acts of war, but there were still many skirmishes in the shadows, and both sides were still adding troops to the border between the two countries, and distributing a large number of the most lethal and best weapons to the troops on the front line.
Judging by all indications, once the two countries go to war again, there will inevitably be large-scale casualties.
It is precisely in order to reduce their own casualties and increase the losses of the other side, so both sides have sent a large number of spies and secret agents to the other side's territory to collect all kinds of useful intelligence materials.
It's just that this state of silence suddenly changed a few times ago, whether it is the empire or the kingdom, a large number of mutated monsters of ordinary people have appeared, some of these monsters can still maintain their sanity and be able to control their bloodthirsty instincts, but the vast majority of monsters have completely lost any human emotions and become man-eating monsters.
The kingdom is not bad, the monsters that appear are scattered in various towns across the country, and the scattered ones are more conducive to the kingdom's secret department to deal with, but the monsters that appear on the empire side are not only in various towns, but in the army, especially on the front line, many soldiers have mutated.
Although there was chaos on the front line of the empire at first, it quickly stabilized, and the staff of the front line thought of a bad move, and all the mutants who turned into man-eating monsters were led to the kingdom, but the kingdom did not pay attention for a while and suffered heavy losses, and several important generals who were inspecting the front line died under the attack of the monsters.
Because of this, small battles were fought on the part of the kingdom and the empire in various parts of the front, and the battles became more and more frequent, and everyone could see that it would not be long before a full-scale war between the two countries would begin.
During this tense period, the spy services of the two countries also became extremely active, and Mourning's original area was the Rambin district, which was the Rambin district and the surrounding area, which was the front line of the battlefield, and his main duty was to gather information on the military deployment of the imperial side in the Rambin district.
However, I don't know why he did his job well, and he had secretly gained the trust of several officers of the Imperial Military Staff in Rambin District, and he was able to get the information he wanted if he went further, but he was suddenly transferred to Sardinia County, the hinterland of the Northern Empire, and some other colleagues were specifically responsible for infiltrating Sardinia County and preparing for future missions against the Crown Territories.
As for why the above arrangement, Mo Ning did not ask, and he was not qualified to ask, he could only do his job seriously, but later he learned from other sources that the United Kingdom did this because some secret services on the part of the Empire were conducting some unknown experiments in the Royal Crown Territories, and it was said that these experiments, if successful, would change the current military balance between the United Kingdom and the Empire.
It's just that the Royal Territory has always been the most heavily guarded place by the Imperial Secret Department, and there are as many as thirty Kingdom agents who died in that place, and these agents are all veteran agents, so after Mo Ning and the others came to Sardinia, the Kingdom did not ask them to contact the Royal Territory, but only asked them to establish a safe base in Sardinia at least before the mission arrived.
Of all the spies who came to Sardinia, Moning was already very good, not only did he evade the Imperial side, but he also established a stronghold, and even had a little relationship with the Emperor's confidant, Earl Duncan.
As for the situation of the other kingdom spies sent to Sardinia, he didn't know very well, because except for the direct superiors, the spies would not contact each other, and he could only know through the information collected by the imperial side that many kingdom spies had been caught by the secret department of the empire, which also made him deliberately reduce the contact with his superiors, so as not to expose himself.
The decision to arrest the regional director of the Imperial Special Operations Division this time was his own temporary idea, this Special Operations Division he had been eyeing for a long time, he just wanted to see if he could find a breakthrough to infiltrate the royal territory from these people, after all, now there are monsters everywhere frequently, and the Special Operations Division has great authority even in the royal territory.
However, what he didn't expect was that before he could do anything, all the people of the Special Operations Division had disappeared in the avalanche except for the director named Colin, and by all indications, the chances of survival were slim.
According to his understanding, those people were on a mission to capture the monsters fleeing north, and according to his understanding of the mission level of the Special Operations Division, this task definitely required Colin, the director, to personally lead the team, but Colin did not lead the team for unknown reasons, so he deliberately affirmed that Colin was derelict in his duties.
If the general department head is derelict in his duties, he will be derelict in his duties, at most he will be demoted, or transferred to other idle departments, but in a department like the Special Operations Division, the dereliction of duty represents an extremely serious crime, and Colin has to bear a lot of responsibility, and it is very likely that he will be sent to a place like the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the end, and the people who enter there will not be able to come out alive as long as they have no support.
With a little common sense and wisdom, that Colin knew what was going to happen to him, and his only option was to escape.
So, Mourning set his sights on this Colin, and this Colin did not disappoint him, although ostensibly, he was searching for his men, but in fact he was preparing to flee to the Northland Ice Field, so he struck at the right time.
"What are you going to do with that Colin?" Sylvia asked Morin as some thoughts crossed her mind after listening to Morin's account.
"I don't know how to deal with it yet?" Mo Ning shook his head and said: "According to what I know about the Imperial side, I'm afraid it will take three to six days for the people they sent to investigate to arrive, and I still have a few days to think of a way, if there is really no way, I can find a place to solve him, and then disguise himself as fleeing to the Northland to deceive those who come to investigate." ”
Sylvia thought for a moment and asked confirmatively, "I remember that the Ministry of Internal Affairs of all the secret departments of the empire is located in Winter Rin City, right?"
Mo Ning thought for a moment and said, "Except for the most mysterious Seventh Bureau's Internal Affairs Department, which I don't know where it is, the Internal Affairs Department of the other secret departments are all set up in Winter Rin City. ”
"Very well, I'll take care of this person!" Sylvia commanded, nodding her head.
"You ......" Mo Ning just wanted to ask Sylvia what he wanted to do with this person, but he seemed to think of something, and instead of asking, he nodded and said, "Okay, this person will be handled by you!"
After listening to the conversation between the two, Leo quickly guessed what Sylvia's purpose was in doing this, and asked in a deep voice, "Do you want to disguise yourself as a member of this Special Operations Division and be taken to Winter Rin City by the Ministry of Internal Affairs with Colin?"
Sylvia smiled, nodded, and said, "Yes, instead of us finding a way to infiltrate Winter Rin City and enter the Imperial Territory, it is better to let the people of the Empire take us in." As she spoke, she asked Mo Ning again: "Since you have been staring at those people for so long, then you should also have the information of those people!"
"Yes. Mo Ning replied.
"You get those materials ready, I'm going to read them tonight. Sylvia commanded, then looked at Tessa Mocha, Mister and Randall, and said, "In addition, send a message to your superiors, I will use a special channel to send them to the territory of the kingdom, and when the time comes, it is up to them to choose whether they will join the kingdom academy or go to Venaya." ”
"Use the special passage?" Morning was stunned, then turned his head to look at Mister and Randall.
Mourning knew that the United Kingdom had several special channels within the empire, and the role of these special channels was very huge, and it was easy to send people and things from the empire to the United Kingdom, but every time it was used, this special channel had to be used for a period of time, and would not be used a second time, so this special channel was used once less, and it was not allowed to be used unless it was an extremely important situation.
In Monin's view, if Sylvia wants to leave the empire through special channels, this is understandable, because for the United Kingdom, Sylvia is very important, let alone a special channel, even if all the special channels are used, it is not too much, but the qualifications of the two scholars are obviously problematic, even if these two scholars are experts in the study of the Black Forest, but there are too many experts in the study of the Black Forest in the United Kingdom, not too many of them, and no less of them.
As for Tessa Mocha, he couldn't see the importance of the other party at all.
"I have the right to use a special passage, just use mine!" Sylvia could see Monin's thoughts, so she made a feasible proposal, and Morvia obviously didn't want Sylvia to give up her special passage so easily, and wanted to say something, but was stopped by Sylvia, she signaled that she had made a decision and would not change, and then said to Leo: "You may have to run into the mountains later." ”
When Leo heard this, he said understandingly, "You asked me to find the bodies of those members of the Special Operations Division so that there would be no accidents, right?"
Sylvia nodded and said, "Since we want to disguise, we must fill all the loopholes, otherwise if something goes wrong in the middle, we will be very unmoved." ”
"I know how to do it. Leo replied and asked Monin, "Do you have the exact location of those people's accidents?"
Monin shook his head.
"I'll go with you!" Tessa Mocha took the initiative to stand up and said, "In the mountains, as long as there are plants, I can find them." ”
Leo thought for a moment and said, "It's okay." ”
