Chapter 156 Mission Impossible

"Well, yes, that's right, we have the target's whereabouts. In addition to Mikael and Alicia, there is also the little girl, yes, the little girl named Xi'er."

"Just keep an eye on it. There is no need to take too many actions to avoid being exposed... Anna, I'm talking about you. Did you contact the target without authorization?"

"Yes, that's right. After all, he is also a legendary figure."

"Well - well - how should I put it? From what I know about him, in just a few moments of your contact with him, he should have deduced all of our lines.

Anna instinctively wanted to retort, but when the words came to her lips, she just said lightly: "I understand, Team Leader Erwin."

Erwin was a little speechless. What did "I got it" mean? It doesn't look like an apology, nor does it look like being stubborn, really...

But...

"By the way Anna! You have been on an overseas assignment, so you may not know about my relationship with them... Hehe... Well... I have signed photos and signed notebooks of Mikael and Alicia here. I want them. Don’t you think about it? It’s only 998, and you can take home the complete set of two photos and notebooks!”

Anadia paused, hesitated, and then asked gently and considerately: "Team Leader Erwin?"

"Huh? What's wrong? This is a limited-time offer! If you think it's expensive, I also have a copy of "Mikael and Alicia's Gossip Collection" written by me personally and reviewed by Cang Xuan and Danzhu... OK I’ll give you the first volume for free! If it’s not convenient for you to receive mail, I’ll go to Attica City in two days... Hehehe, we can trade offline..."

"Team Leader Erwin...are you sick?"

"..."

Anadia hung up the call and walked through the noisy shanty town, still holding the SD card she just got from Mikael in her hand.

The air was mixed with the disgusting smell of sweat and rancidity. She wrapped her body in a large cloak and hood, lowering her head and coughing lightly from time to time - after all, beauty would bring a lot of trouble in a mixed area.

Although she was not afraid, things like trouble should be nipped in the bud. Besides, small troubles can lead to big troubles if you accidentally expose one or two layers of your identity.

Someone suddenly hit her shoulder. Anadia raised the corners of her lips and hooked her fingers back. While taking back her own mobile phone, she also took away a silver coin from the thief's pocket.

"Tsk, it's just a small skill."

When the little thief realized that he had met a master, and when he looked back, Anna's figure had merged with the night and was no longer distinguishable.

"Crunch——"

"Bang!"

The old metal door was violently closed, knocking down a pile of brittle paint and iron filings.

Anna walked quietly towards the darkest place, making no sound the whole time, until a chill came on her neck, and she stopped.

"It's me, Kosma."

The young man had already recognized the scent of her body immediately, so that before she could even utter her words of self-defense, the dagger placed across her neck was withdrawn.

"Anna."

Kosmo shouted lightly, and then turned on the lights in the room again.

"Why do you go to all the trouble and let the SD card pass through the hands of a third party? If he...then wouldn't all our previous efforts be in vain?"

Anna didn't reply, but looked down at the boy who was half a head shorter than her, and tapped his head gently.

"Let's take a look at your injuries first."

"Uh...well..."

Kosmo was speechless for a moment and could only lie down on the bed made of three iron chairs.

The wounds on the waist and abdomen have scabbed over. It seems that the wooden thorn did not penetrate deeply. Or maybe Mikael gave a helping hand secretly?

The burn on his left hand was more serious. His homemade smoke bomb exploded almost instantly, and unlike professional smoke bombs that slowly released smoke, it used a small amount of gunpowder to explode the shell, so that the smoke inside could be quickly discharged. First Time obscures sight.

It is inevitable to hurt yourself.

Fortunately, black powder is not very lethal. Anadia used the light to clean the remaining black powder residue in the palm of Kos Demon, sprayed it with iodine to disinfect, then applied a layer of cream-like medicine, and finally used a new layer of gauze. Wrapped in layers and tied with a small bow on the back of the hand.

"I'm sorry, Kosmo, for letting you do such a dangerous thing this time."

"No...it's okay."

"The reason why I let the SD card pass through the hands of that gentleman was my own consideration. Kosmo, you also know... I am an official investigator after all, and I only have the right to report the matter. As for how to deal with it... ...I can't interfere. But that man is different. He is not an official force. Maybe...he may have other ways to solve this matter..."

"..."

"Okay! Everything is over. You can have a good rest in the next few days!"

Anna smiled, but Kosma remained silent in response.

"Anna, you still don't want to tell me..."

[Still unwilling to tell me...the sources of various disasters in recent years...]

"Stop thinking so much."

Anadia put on the tattered hooded cloak again.

She silently walked to the rusty iron door, then suddenly turned around:

"As expected, I still can't help but tell you... Kosmo, it's your birthday in two days. You might as well guess now what gift I want to give you?"

"..."

[I'm not a child anymore, I don't need any birthday presents. ]

[Is that cool? Wait, it seems a bit too distant...]

[How should I answer? Should I really show an excited expression like a child... I can't do it...]

"Ann..."

[Huh? Why is she gone? ]

Anna continued to walk through the night. The collective power supply system of the entire city had stopped operating long ago, so there was a real night.

Fortunately, she has been here for more than a year, and she is used to this darkness anyway.

After all, the reason why people can feel the darkness is that the light has not completely disappeared - she raised her head, and a corner of the moon appeared between the clouds.

A white shadow suddenly flashed in front of her eyes, and Anna blinked. The grayish white was so dazzling in the dark streets, she couldn't have seen it wrong.

But when she followed the traces in her memory to look for it again, it had disappeared.

[It should be just a white cat, how can there be such a small Honkai beast? 】

She no longer dwelled on this question, but found a basement by groping in the dark based on her memory.

She reached out and touched the door, and suddenly remembered something, so she put on an ugly mask that looked like a Honkai beast.

"Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da", knocked according to the agreed signal, and three seconds later, the door opened quickly, and a black shadow instantly dragged her in.

"Are you No. 141 Poison Pupa?"

The person in the room naturally wore the same mask, but his voice didn't sound much older than Kosmo.

"No, I'm a spy sent by Lezren."

As soon as these words came out, Anna saw the Poison Pupa member opposite her let out a long sigh of relief, and the dagger against her waist also retracted.

"Who set this password, so... magical?"

Anna couldn't help but complain.

The other poison pupa stiffened for a moment, and replied coldly:

"You don't need to know this. You took the risk of being exposed and contacted me. Do you have any intelligence?"

"Yes, we have found out the purpose of Lezren's secret mobilization of the Fire Moth Intelligence Department."

"So soon?"

"Well, if nothing unexpected happens, their targets should be Mikael and Alicia, who just arrived today."

"Mikael team...ah, I mean Mikael, right...tsk tsk tsk, what is Lezren doing? Mikael is not the first time to leave Dusk Street. It seems that no one paid much attention to his movements before? Hey! What's going on?"

"Then I don't know."

The night was deep, and before I knew it, the heavy mist spread again.

Anna had just left the poison pupa's base, and the surroundings quickly blurred.

So she silently groped towards the side of the road, and finally leaned against the wall.

Soon, everything around her was invisible.

Mikael, Erwin, Kosmo, and the poison pupa just now... Anatia shook her head and kept correcting her perception of herself in her mind——

[I am Anatia, 20 years old this year, a special section member of the former Eastern European Intelligence Bureau of the United Government, and now the deputy section chief of the Intelligence Section 2 of the Humanities Department. The mission is to report the current situation of Attica City to the United Government. For this purpose, I used Kosmo and asked him to film the transaction video of the underground market for me. ]

[I am Anna, 18 years and 27 days old this year, a member of the Fire Moth Intelligence Bureau, a hidden agent planted by the Fire Moth in the United Government. I once lost contact with the headquarters, but now I have restored contact and accepted a new mission: monitor the movements of Mikael and Alicia. ]

[I am the poison pupa No. 141, my name is unknown, my age is unknown, and I am a spy planted by the poison pupa in the Fire Moth Intelligence Bureau. Mission: monitor the movements of the Fire Moth Intelligence Bureau. ]
