Chapter 1776: Secret Helper
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Mo Tian was very good at brainwas.h.i.+ng people. He stole babies to create his kingdom of killers. Mo Fei and Mo Qi were from the first batch of children, and Mo Qi barely avoided being killed by Mo Tian because Mo Fei secretly hid him in the forest. However, he had lost his legs forever.
“I know.” Mo Fei lowered her gaze. She was well aware that Mo Tian trained all of them.
For an organization of a.s.sa.s.sins, other than the top-notch ones—with Mo Tian as an example—Mo Fei was the only one whom he had successfully trained. Hence, he constantly needed new blood to keep his a.s.sa.s.sin organization alive.
Ye Cong was even more formidable than Mo Fei imagined. She finally comprehended why Gu Juexi told her that she had overestimated herself. Ye Cong could gather dozens of people, while she and Mo Qi could never. They only had four partners—her, Mo Qi, the la.s.s, and Hei’zi, Mo Qi’s bodyguard. Moreover, Mo Qi had been manning the operation by locking in on all the locations where the children were kept while Hei’zi was the one in charge of rescuing the children.
There were only the four of them in the Bridge of Helplessness.
After prepping for the swoop, Ye Cong asked Mo Fei, “Where are your people?”
Mo Fei answered, “All here.”
Ye Cong, “…”
Ye Cong subconsciously turned to his back and scoffed after throwing her a glance. “Do you operate on the basis of ‘feed one and the entire family is fed’? No wonder you’re thinking of dying for the cause.”
Mo Fei, “…”
“Why? Can’t one person do it?” Mo Fei asked arrogantly.
“We need your advisor,” Ye Cong said straightforwardly. He knew that Mo Fei was trying to do this alone.
Mo Fei had no choice but to let Mo Qi partic.i.p.ate in this matter. However, she would rather have him stay out of the operation directly. After all, his legs would enc.u.mber him.
Ye Cong sneered when he saw Mo Fei’s look of disdain. “He’s just here as a strategist. I’ll get someone to protect him unless you can get Gu Juexi to help.”
Mo Fei, “…”
Gu Juexi?
It would be good enough for her if Gu Juexi was not waiting to watch how it all unfurl with popcorn in his hands.
Thus, Mo Fei chose to contact Mo Qi in the end. Mo Qi’s talent was perhaps on par with Gu Juexi’s. Therefore, they needed an advisor like him to be in the command center. Mo Qi was their best choice.
Mo Qi naturally agreed to this. Not only did he agree—even if Mo Fei did not say anything, he would still come.
Ye Cong had a hidden attic on the second floor of the villa. There was a surveillance room inside the attic, and he could see everything that was happening at the villa.
Mo Qi looked at the computer screens and looked up at Ye Cong. “I need to get through the internal system of the Transportation Department. This might take some time.”
After all, if they wanted to escape, they needed to establish a safe route to retreat.
Mo Fei scanned the small attic up and down before saying in disdain, “Isn’t there a bas.e.m.e.nt or something? If someone throws a grenade in here, the attic will totally collapse, okay?”
Mo Qi, “…”
Ye Cong, “…”
Since the la.s.s could not speak, the expression on her face was a little distorted.
“Apologies, my dear sister is straightforward,” Mo Qi said politely.
Ye Cong chuckled. This big brother of hers seemed to have misunderstood her. Was this not the essence of Mo Fei’s existence?
She was a simple and crude woman.
Mo Qi hacked into the Transportation Department’s system. Mo Fei was responsible for determining the final route. Hei’zi currently led his men to the location where the children were hidden according to Ye Cong. He was familiar with this job, so Ye Cong had him guard the place for now.
Then, the next step was to wait for Mo Tian to take the bait.
Thinking that the system would be hard to hack into, Mo Qi got into the system surprisingly quickly. That was when he realized that he was not the one who had gotten through—someone had created an internal pathway for them.
Mo Qi turned around and looked at Mo Fei who was s.p.a.cing out on the sofa. It seemed like Qian Yikun was secretly helping them.
