Chapter 50

Cheshire Cat: "Are you two big guys going to keep exchanging pleasantries and flattering each other endlessly? What do you think you're doing by leaving us girls out in the cold?"

Gordon: "Oh, I get so caught up in conversation with Captain Lin that I forget about Princess. Please forgive me." —— Ignoring Cheshire Cat

Princess of Amazon: "Forgive me? You're making too much of it, I don't mind at all."

Cheshire Cat: "Hey, hey, hey, are you blind, old man? I was the one who raised the objection, why are you apologizing to her!"

Gordon: "When adults are talking, little girl, don't interrupt. Go stand somewhere cool." —— Waving his hand (making a gesture to shoo away a cat or dog)

Cheshire Cat: "What little girl? I'm sixteen this year, and I've been out of my apprenticeship for two years. And you're telling me to go stand somewhere cool? Do you remember who begged the superiors (Lei Xiaogu) to send a young female member from [Terror Shadows] to come to Paradise Island with you as your temporary deputy?"

Gordon: "Who begged? That's all rumors. It was the General Secretary who first proposed the idea, asking [Terror Shadows] to send someone to join the [Pigeon Operation] to ensure everything goes smoothly. I just provided some details. Besides, I originally wanted Lei Xiaogu's daughter, Leila, to be my temporary deputy and come to Paradise Island with me. Who knew that the overprotective and sinister man would send you to make things unpleasant for me, which is truly despicable." —— Grinding his teeth

Cheshire Cat: "What? You think I was sent to make things unpleasant for you and just to fill a quota?" —— Very dissatisfied

Gordon: "Isn't that the case? Otherwise, why would they send you when there are other people I trust and consider suitable? I've never worked with you before and don't know your abilities, so of course I would think that way."

Cheshire Cat: "Hmph! You'll see my strength soon enough, and then we'll see what you say." —— Wanting to challenge Gordon

Gordon: "No need to wait. Go get your gear ready now, and prepare to go to the island with Princess and me in the rubber landing boat."

Cheshire Cat: "Go to the island in a rubber landing boat? Why not just dock the White Pegasus at the pier?"

Princess of Amazon: "We can't do that. The island is on high alert. If the White Pegasus approaches the pier, it will be attacked and unable to dock. I must go to the island first to secure assistance, and then the White Pegasus can enter the port smoothly."

I (Voiceover): "High alert? Is this [Pigeon Operation] a secret military mission? Why are there only a few people here? What about the old man's superpowered subordinates? Why didn't they come?"

Gordon: "That's right. Save your energy for when we get to the island and vent it on someone else. Don't keep thinking about challenging me to prove yourself."

Cheshire Cat: "Hmph." —— Turning to leave and get her gear

Princess of Amazon: "Your provocation is quite 'clever', isn't it?" —— Sarcastic

Gordon: "It wouldn't work otherwise. She and I are not from the same system, and her superior is my old rival, making it difficult to command her. It's better to stimulate her this way, making her lead the charge and scout for traps. It's a way to use her talents and resources effectively." —— Sighing

Princess of Amazon: "Use her talents and resources effectively? Isn't she your temporary deputy? How is using her as the vanguard in line with her role?"

Gordon: "Her as my deputy? To be honest, she's far inferior to Jonathan and Leila in that role. If Jonathan hadn't been busy managing the Super Natural Disaster Countermeasures Office while I was away, I would have asked Leila to come. Who knew that Lei Xiaogu wouldn't let her go and sent this little girl to敷衍 me, truly a sinister and vicious wolf." —— Cursing

Princess of Amazon: "Stop cursing. Let's go get our gear too."

Gordon: "Alright, you go first. (To Lin Youde) Please wait here and maintain radio contact with me. Once Princess secures assistance, I'll contact you immediately, and you can bring the White Pegasus into the port."

Lin Youde: "Understood."

Fifteen minutes later, the three were ready to board the rubber landing boat.

Gordon: "Princess, what is that you're carrying? Is it your luggage?"

Princess of Amazon: "No, it's one of the ship's cargo items. I want to take it to the island first and hand it over to my people. This is very important to me."

Gordon: "I see. I have no reason to object. As for you (Cheshire Cat), I told you to get your gear ready. Why are you still dressed like this and wearing that cat mask? You should have asked Princess for an Amazon warrior's outfit to disguise yourself, to avoid drawing attention and facilitate the secret mission. I asked for a young female deputy for a reason."

Cheshire Cat: "What do you know? This cat mask has many high-tech functions and is my most important equipment. I can't just change it. And my appearance must be kept strictly confidential. If it's exposed and the target learns about it, I won't be able to continue working in [Terror Shadows] and will be unemployed. I estimate that if I become unemployed, my only option would be to get married and find a long-term provider, becoming a housewife. I don't want to choose that boring and lifeless path."

I (Voiceover): "Girl, don't speak so confidently. You might be proven wrong. How do you know what will happen in the future? You might fall in love with an old man who could be your father and voluntarily choose that boring and lifeless path."

Gordon: "A cat mask with high-tech functions? Like those high-tech water cups on the market?" —— Sarcastic

Princess of Amazon: "High-tech water cups? What are they, and what do they do?" —— Curious

Gordon: "High-tech water cups are made from a blend of various rare materials and can quickly micro-electrolyze water, producing water that is beneficial to health. When used by the elderly, they can help clear smoke and alcohol toxins and have good preventive and control effects on gout, constipation, hypertension, high cholesterol, primary heart disease, asthma, and kidney stones. Of course, these are just claims from advertisements, believe them if you will. What does your cat mask do? Can it cure all diseases or keep you young forever?" —— Sarcastic

Cheshire Cat: "Don't compare my cat mask to those fraudulent products on the market. My cat mask was custom-made for me by [Terror Shadows] and is a genuine combat aid. You'll see its power when we start fighting." —— Still thinking about challenging Gordon

Gordon: "A combat aid? So it's like a third-party software to make up for your shortcomings. I understand. It's important to you, so keep it on."

Cheshire Cat: "..." —— Stung by the remark, glaring at Gordon

I (Voiceover): "So this cat mask is Cheshire Cat's combat cheat. No wonder she always wears it. But what high-tech equipment is Gordon hiding under his cloak? Can you let me know?"
