Chapter 40: The Earl's Commission

The new "O'Diana" motioned for the original one to stand down and asked Su Mo, "Tell me, what's the matter with the late-night visit?" ”

Now it was Su Mo's turn to be puzzled: "Hmm... No offense. The old gentleman brought me in, and this should be your order, right? ”

O'Diana said calmly, "I asked McCarter to bring you in, yes. But in the back of your heart, you want to see me, don't you? ”

"As soon as I set up a file in the public commission center, I went to receive the C-level reward from the Public Security Bureau, and I couldn't wait to leave for the border on the same day, but I knew Heywood but didn't ask him for help, and after the commission was completed, I immediately ran to the outside of the Anjing New District to squat..."

"Housheng, you are too impetuous. You're almost writing the words 'everyone look at me strong,' 'I'm going to be famous,' and 'people in the middle look at me.'" ”

Su Mo was seen through, but he seemed very calm: "Is there anything wrong with wanting to be famous?" You don't like the unmotivated salted fish mercenary, do you? ”

Being so blunt and unpretentious made O'Diana more and more interested: "So, you want to build a relationship with me?" ”

Su Mo flattered at the right time: "Lady Earl's name is well known to the mercenaries in Crescent City, is there any mercenary who doesn't want to do things for you?" ”

O'Diana chuckled and said meaningfully, "Have you ever wondered if I'd like to work with you?" ”

"To be honest, you're a strange person. I've never heard of you in Crescent City before, and it suddenly popped up a few days ago. Who knows where you come from? ”

Su Mo smiled back: "The origin is not important, the important thing is the quality of the work, and trust is slowly established." If you really weren't interested in me, you wouldn't have invited me here today. ”

O'Diana's gaze deepened: "In the afterlife, I have seen many people as high-profile and confident as you, and they have all fallen without exception after a short period of scenery. ”

"The water in Crescent City is very deep, and it's good to have momentum, but it's easy to drown in the water if you rush too hard. It will do you good to listen to my words. ”

Su Mo bowed slightly, to show that he remembered it.

O'Diana changed her words: "Let's get down to business." Since you are interested in cooperating and have been waiting on the road for so long, I will always give you a chance. ”

"I happen to have one thing to do here, and it's my personal commission to help me steal something."

Su Mo was a little puzzled.

Stealing?

He thought it would be some kind of fierce commission, but he didn't expect it to be just stealing.

O'Diana struck the operation screen next to the railing, and a holographic projection appeared in the center of the lobby, forming a three-dimensional projection of a suitcase, with many text notes floating next to it.

O'Diana slowly introduced: "What you want to steal is this silver-white suitcase, with a total weight of 5.32 kilograms, don't ask what is inside." ”

"According to my informant, the suitcase is with the Talon Society, a violent group on the border."

Talon will...

Summer searched for the name in his memory.

He realized that he had never heard of it.

A group that doesn't even have a name in the game, it can only be that kind of stinky fish and rotten shrimp.

O'Diana glanced at her watch and continued, "It's 8 o'clock in the evening. Your task is to get that suitcase within 6 hours, or 2 a.m., and bring it back to me. ”

Su Mo asked a detailed question: "Is the time limit determined by getting the box, or is it based on the box being brought back here?" ”

O'Diana: "The time limit is based on the box you get, but the commission is conditional on bringing it back to this hall. ”

Sumer: "Okay, you go ahead. ”

O'Diana's tone became serious: "Attention, I have an additional requirement for this commission - the whole process must be concealed. ”

"I'll send eyeliners to keep an eye on you all the time, they are the most elite intelligence agents under my command, and they will watch your every move."

"If they find out that your theft has caught the attention of the Talon Society, or has left any traceable traces on the scene... I would judge the order as a failure, as would the timeout. ”

"When the time comes, Housheng, I will put you on the blacklist. You'll never, I mean never, never want to see me again. ”

Su Mo couldn't help but frown.

He didn't understand the significance of the commission.

Did that silver-white suitcase matter to O'Diana?

If it was important, why didn't she send someone she could trust to steal it, but instead give the trust to someone she had just knew?

If it's not important, why send eyeliner to stare the whole time?

If you fail, you will be blacklisted immediately... This is a very serious punishment in the mercenary world.

And, why steal?

With O'Diana's strength, isn't it a group like Eagle Talon that doesn't deserve to be written into the plot just to be destroyed? Guilty of beating around the bush to steal?

What is the point of having to act covertly?

Why is there a 6-hour time limit?

Is this a trial? But is O'Diana such a boring person...

There were too many questions lingering in his mind, and Su Mo was a little uncertain and couldn't understand O'Diana's intentions.

Seeing that Su Mo was hesitating, Odiana chuckled: "Backed down? Never mind. If you don't have confidence, don't take it, and ask McCarter to send you away after supper, and we'll treat it as if we've never met. ”

The opportunity to build a relationship with a well-known intermediary was in front of him, and Su Mo couldn't back down, so he had to try anyway.

It's a big deal to be blocked, and when the time comes, it's okay to find another middleman, and you won't lose a piece of meat.

He put many questions behind him for the time being, and said heavily: "I'll take it." ”

Odiana slowly exhaled the smoke ring, and her tone was unfazed: "The key information is on the hologram, there is no backup for you, write it down yourself." ”

Su Mo: "I've already memorized it. ”

O'Diana's eyes reflected the spark of the smoking gun, which looked extremely gloomy: "Can you go, let McCarter send you out of the new area." ”

"Farewell, Madam Earl." Su Mo turned and left.

McCarter followed Summer and disappeared into the night with him.

There was silence in the lobby, save for the faint sound of tobacco burning.

"Squeak-" The door to the second floor opened.

"O'Diana's" expression became respectful, and she stepped aside, her waist almost bent at a humble ninety degrees.

"Click, click, click..."With the sound of cold footsteps, a graceful figure in a long dress walked out from behind the door.

This woman's appearance is exactly the same as "O'Diana", but if you look closely, you will find that there is a natural pressure on her body, and even the broken blade looks humble and small in front of her.

This is the real body, the real "Count of O'Diana".

O'Diana motioned for the stand-in to step back, silently smoking a cigarette and watching in the direction of Sumer's departure.

Broken Blade reminded in a deep voice: "Lady Earl, are we really going to get involved?" A squadron of razors is already on its way and will be on the border in 6 hours. If things are exposed..."

O'Diana's tone was steady: "It's really exposed." ”

Broken Blade pursed his dry lips: "I just want to remind you that if this matter is not handled properly, the joint venture company will definitely find us trouble... It's very risky for us to get involved like this. ”

O'Diana knocked the cigarette gun on the ashtray, shook off the ashes inside, and said silently, "Actually, I don't want to get involved either." But just this afternoon, someone wrote me a handwritten letter. ”

"The girl said that she had met a new friend, a very good person, who had saved her life, and was now working as a mercenary in Crescent City."

"She also said that she was cured and was going to retire, and hoped that I would take care of that new friend after many years of friendship, and if he was in any big trouble, I could give him a hand."

With that, O'Diana reached into her arms and took out something.

It was a white mask with no patterns.

O'Diana looked deeply at the mask, as if looking at its former owner: "She did so many things for me in the past few years, and I still have to give this face." ”

Odiana glanced sideways at the dark night outside the manor, and said in a faint voice: "I have helped those who can help, and the rest is to see Su Mo's own creation." ”

"If he can't seize this opportunity, then I can't help it."
