Chapter 42

"Manager of WOC Financial Company, Zhang Yafen."

During the morning tea time, at a cafe.

Ye Yun sat by the floor-to-ceiling window, fiddling with his laptop, but his eyes kept drifting to the fourth floor of the opposite building.

On the street, traffic was congested, and the sound of car horns was incessant.

The girl in student uniform on the opposite side frowned, "The environment here is really terrible."

"Normal for a bustling area," Ye Yun adjusted the gold-rimmed glasses on his nose and said, "Su Ya, don’t tense up, anyone can tell you’re nervous."

The girl named Su Ya smiled bitterly, "Boss, it’s impossible not to be nervous. Just thinking about how that monster can shoot someone to pieces with a single tooth, my legs are still shaking."

"Why did you stay and join this mission then?"

"It’s for the M16A2, and unexpectedly, there’s an additional surprise—the SK-3 combat suit can significantly boost combat power." Su Ya’s eyes sparkled as she spoke, "It’s so hard for a corporal like me to get access to such treasures. Boss, you don’t know, I’ve been on so many missions, and the only weapon I have is a Browning M1911. Without a good gun, I might die on the next mission. Now with the M16 and this combat suit, I can survive at least three or four more regular missions."

Ye Yun nodded. Living under the game system, who isn’t uncertain about life and death? To live longer, risking one’s life is normal. Moreover, people like Su Ya mostly have the idea that 'if the sky falls, the tall ones will hold it up,' so choosing to stay isn’t without reason.

However, this girl may seem weak, but anyone who truly regards her as a weak woman is a real fool. To rise from a private to a corporal, one must complete at least four or five regular missions, meaning that at least four or five CTs have died at her hands.

"Boss, she’s out."

A voice came from the earpiece, it was another player under Ye Yun, a corporal skilled in hacking, 'Motherboard.'

Motherboard looked like a somewhat introverted otaku, but similarly, to reach the rank of corporal, he must have taken many lives. According to him, he has survived this long mainly due to his hacking skills, allowing him to accurately determine the enemy’s position and easily eliminate them from the shadows.

Since last night, Motherboard has been controlling the surveillance cameras of WOC Financial Company, so he is very familiar with the movements of the target.

Ye Yun looked at the screen of his computer and suddenly closed it, "Let’s go."

Su Ya was puzzled, "Aren’t we waiting here for her to come for morning tea? Our plan..."

"The plan has changed." Ye Yun casually put the computer in his bag and walked out.

Su Ya followed, and Motherboard’s analysis came through the earpiece, "Zhang Yafen is carrying two bags, one of which is a shoe box that has always been in the company’s shoe cabinet. Boss must have guessed that she wouldn’t bring a shoe box for morning tea, right? From her appearance, she’s probably going to the gym."

Ye Yun walked while speaking in a low voice, "If someone frequently goes to the gym, how could they not have shoes and clothes there? She’s dressed in an OL outfit but carrying a shoe box, it’s highly likely she’s not going to the gym, and the box doesn’t contain shoes."

"Moreover..." Ye Yun glanced at the parking lot beside the opposite building, "This building only has four floors, and the first three floors are temporarily unrented. WOC Company only has a dozen or so people, and three obvious clients just entered. A small company suddenly having so many clients, and Zhang Yafen, as the manager, didn’t stay to entertain them, which is very unusual."

In the earpiece, Motherboard muttered, "I seem to understand why you’re the boss..."

The two got into a taxi, and Su Ya pointed at Zhang Yafen’s red SUV, "Follow the car in front."

The taxi driver looked at her in surprise and smiled at Ye Yun, "Playing cops and robbers?"

Ye Yun: "...You’re very wise."

The two cars followed from Kwai Chung all the way to the Prudential Plaza in Jordan. Zhang Yafen parked her car on the ground floor of the parking lot and then turned to walk towards a nearby mall.

Throughout this process, she kept holding the shoe box without putting it down.

Ye Yun and Su Ya exchanged a glance and followed at a leisurely pace, pretending to be a student couple.

Surprisingly, Zhang Yafen circled around the dazzling mall a few times and then walked out without shopping.

Ye Yun knew they were following the right person and continued to carefully follow her.

With Motherboard’s control over the surrounding surveillance cameras, it was easy to analyze that Zhang Yafen didn’t seem to notice anyone following her, but she led Ye Yun and Su Ya in circles, from the Tsuen Wan Line to Jordan Road and then to Kowloon Station, finally ending up near the Hong Kong Observatory Road, at the famous Silka Mountain View Hotel.

Ye Yun and Su Ya exchanged a glance, unsure of what this woman was up to, but Motherboard reminded, "Boss, I remember most of the celebrities for this concert are staying at Silka. Although it’s only the 8th today, some of the celebrities have already checked in."

Su Ya said, "Boss, it was mentioned earlier that the mysterious organization is targeting this concert. So, Zhang Yafen must be part of the mysterious organization?"

Ye Yun thought the same, but he couldn’t be sure it was that simple, so he said, "Let’s follow and see."

Following for a while, Zhang Yafen suddenly turned into a building next to the Silka Hotel.

Su Ya, following Ye Yun’s signal, went in and quickly reported back, "Boss, she went to the restroom."

Ye Yun was taken aback and then urgently said, "Go in and wash your hands, then come out immediately. See how many people are inside, she might be changing clothes."

Motherboard was puzzled, "Really? Isn’t that a cliché from movies? She shouldn’t have noticed you following her, why are you sure she’s changing clothes?"

Ye Yun said, "If her destination is Silka, then Silka is just half a street away. Why wouldn’t she go to the restroom there if she’s in such a hurry?"

Su Ya laughed and cried, "Maybe it’s her period?"

Ye Yun coldly smiled, "What if it’s not?"

Su Ya had no choice but to follow Ye Yun’s instructions.

Soon, she excitedly reported, "Boss, she really did change clothes. Look at the entrance, a woman with slightly red curly long hair and a red suit is her."

Ye Yun nodded, indeed seeing the woman come out and directly hail a taxi.

Ye Yun couldn’t wait for Su Ya and said, "Later, follow my route as Motherboard directs."

Saying that, he also hailed a taxi.

The two cars followed for half a street, and the car in front stopped. The taxi driver looked back at Ye Yun in surprise, "Little brother, are you two okay? It’s just a two-minute walk."

"Shut up."

Ye Yun threw a Hong Kong dollar and got out of the car, following from the roadside.

Just as he reached a slightly farther distance, he stopped, frowning at the four men in black suits at the entrance.

These four men were well-built and stood like pines, and in this weather, they were wearing black leather gloves, clearly not wanting others to see their calloused hands from handling weapons.

"The CTs are already prepared!" Ye Yun’s heart sank, and he took a step back.

"Can’t get in? I can take you in." A hand suddenly pressed on Ye Yun’s shoulder.

Ye Yun’s body instantly tensed, and he quickly turned to look at the person behind him!

Behind him, a sunny and handsome young man in his twenties was spreading his hands to show he was harmless.

This man was about the same height as Ye Yun, around 180 cm, with a slender build, and looked much more handsome, giving off a vibe of a combination of Ching Yee Keen and Wallace Chung.

Most importantly, even Roger Ye Yun could sense some depth of strength, but this young man standing in front of Ye Yun gave him a completely indiscernible feeling, as if a misty fog was between them, and behind that fog, it seemed like two identical people were standing... no, more precisely, a soul entity identical to him in appearance and build was floating behind this young man.

Ye Yun’s heart sank heavily, realizing he had been careless and let this young man, whose strength was hard to gauge, get close to him.

However, from the young man’s expression, it seemed he had no intention of fighting.

Ye Yun said in a deep voice, "Who are you?"

The young man smiled, "Old C."
