"The Fourth mentioned to me in passing that 007 has been looking for a woman, said to be the mother body for a genetic experiment."
Upon hearing this, Yun Xin’s eyes widened, the blankness and confusion in his eyes undiminished.
Su Yunling continued, her tone unhurried, "A few days ago, the Intelligence Department received new information: the mother body of the genetic experiment has fallen into the hands of someone from Angel."
As he listened to Su Yunling’s words, Yun Xin suddenly understood.
"So, by leaking the information to us, is 007 hoping that in the midst of us taking down Angel’s new hideout, he can seize the opportunity to abduct that mother body?"
Su Yunling’s lips curved with a faint smile, but she remained silent.
Seeing this, Yun Xin realized that what he had said was indeed what Su Yunling had suspected.
"But, the people involved in the web operation have always acted alone. In the past, weren’t they the ones who took down terrorist organization hideouts? Why are they thinking of using us this time?"
"They’re probably short on manpower," Su Yunling said coolly, her gaze slightly downcast. She added after a moment, "Not long ago, Seven got into a fight at Shengxing Hotel, and his Ancient Martial Arts were crippled."
Seven, not particularly bright, but with a high Combat Power—most of the web’s combat operations relied on him leading the fight.
After hearing Su Yunling’s explanation, Yun Xin was taken aback, "Whoa! Who is it, to be so awesome?"
That’s the killer ranked seventh on the web’s assassin list.
At the same time, Seven is an insider of the web. Don’t let his seventh place in the assassin list fool you; his strength is much more than that.
Being placed at seventh is purely because Seven likes the number seven and, taking advantage of his internal status, stubbornly claims that spot.
With a glimmer of amusement in her limpid, peach-blossom eyes, Su Yunling heard Yun Xin’s question and slightly curved her lips, "A child."
She had sent people to handle the incident that night and had also roughly found out some things afterwards.
Coming upon Seven, Su Yunling herself was somewhat surprised, not quite understanding how the child had come into conflict with Seven.
However, to be able to disable Seven’s Ancient Martial Arts, the child’s abilities must not be weak.
Having higher Combat Power is good, helps to protect oneself.
Remembering the words Yun Yan had said during their phone conversation, Su Yunling’s smile faded slightly and she lightly furrowed her attractive brows.
Having heard this, Yun Xin was completely dumbfounded.
How young a child are we talking about?
Yun Xin was scratching his head in bewilderment.
Without elaborating on the child, Su Yunling simply glanced sideways at Yun Xin, "Tell Fu Hong to prepare. He needs to take part in this operation."
When it comes to hacking skills, Fu Hong is the best in the entire Ever Winning Army.
If 007 really intends to intervene, then Fu Hong is his match.
"Alright, sure." Yun Xin responded and sent a message to Fu Hong.
When Gu Zhiqi woke up, it was already evening.
Gu Yuluo was sitting on a stool by the bed, chin propped in her hands, staring eagerly at the person on the bed.
Seeing the person in bed stir, Gu Yuluo sprang up from the chair, "Little girl, are you awake?"
Gu Zhiqi, supporting herself on the bed, got up slowly. Seeing the person standing beside the bed, her eyes were groggy and apart from being blurry, there was no particular emotion.
Gu Yuluo, seeing her looking , felt a pang in her heart, and the hand by her side clenched suddenly, "Little girl, do you... do you still remember me?"
Looking at Gu Zhiqi’s confused and clueless expression, Gu Yuluo’s heart sank abruptly as if weighed down by a boulder.
The tensed fingers relaxed, then tightened again, she watched Gu Zhiqi tentatively trying to ask, "Do you... still remember who you are?"
Gu Zhiqi shook her head.
