Spy-x-War Showdown-Chapter 31 - 30 Dark Night Knight

31: Chapter 30 Dark Night Knight

31 -30 Dark Night Knight

Is there any need to guess?

Yang Yi pondered for a moment, his face deathly pale as he said, “The Masser Group has obtained evidence, so they don’t have to worry about leaking secrets.

And since Kate and I didn’t die, the killer hasn’t completed the task, so the Masser Group can refuse to pay the reward.

After all, they’ve achieved their goal.

The Assassin Group will have to kill me and Kate to get the money, unless the Masser Group admits the task is complete and agrees to pay ten million US dollars.

But would the Masser Group do that?”

Danny laughed and said, “Filial piety, brotherly respect, loyalty, trust, propriety, righteousness, integrity, shame—do you expect arms dealers to have these virtues?

Don’t be naive.

This business requires trust, and everyone values credibility.

However, the Masser Group can rightfully refuse to pay the commission within the agreed scope.

Guess, will they pay the money?”

Is there any need to guess again?

Of course, the answer is no.

When it’s possible to save a lot of money within the rules, why not save it?

So, even if the Masser Group doesn’t pursue the matter, it’s meaningless.

The killers, who have already had two people die, have to kill Yang Yi and Kate; otherwise, everything they’ve done before would have been for nothing.

Having realized these things, Yang Yi clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, “If that’s the case, then might as well make the evidence public and part ways!”

Danny sighed, a helpless smile on his face, “If you do that, no one can protect you.

The Masser Group will send more people, an endless stream, until they kill you.

Of course, you can do that, but you must leave here before you can.”

Yang Yi said despondently, “Anyway, I’m going to die…”

“No!

I can guarantee that no one dares to kill you.

I said I was willing to protect you at all costs.

And if it’s just about keeping you safe, it doesn’t really take much.

But that woman, she’s different.

I have no obligation to ensure her safety, and she will attract more attention.”

Yang Yi insisted decisively, “But I can’t just throw her out to die.

Absolutely not!”

Ben spread his hands with a helpless look and said, “I understand how you feel, so I won’t persuade you or force you to do anything.

Let’s wait for the news for now, to see to what extent this matter can be resolved.

So don’t rush to make a decision now; we’ll talk about everything tomorrow.”

With no better option, Yang Yi nodded and said softly, “Alright, we’ll see how things go tomorrow, but can I go see my partner?”

“It’s best if you don’t.

My people are performing surgery on her right now.

You won’t be of any help if you go, better to just wait here.”

Yang Yi sighed and then he asked in a serious tone, “Captain, is this your restaurant?”

“Oh, no, it’s not.

I’m not the owner, I’m just the manager.”

Yang Yi nodded, then he whispered to Danny, “So this place is just a cover for your identity?”

Danny laughed and said, “It’s not just about covering my identity; I actually enjoy the work here.

You can think of the restaurant manager as my job, and the captain of the Dark Night Knight as my part-time gig.”

After some thought, Yang Yi said, “Could you tell me about my father?

I want to know what kind of person he was, beyond the image I’m familiar with.

What kind of person was he, really?”

Danny poured a cup of tea, then spoke thoughtfully, “Your father was a very fair man.”

“Fair?”

“Yes, very fair.

He was a spy dealer, he basically didn’t act on his own, but he offered fair prices, he was fair in his dealings, and so, naturally, many people were willing to work with him.

Your father didn’t easily conflict with others; his good relations as an informant meant that those who offended him always received very fair retaliation.”

“Fair…

retaliation?

What kind of retaliation can be fair?”

“There were many.

If a whole family needed to be killed, he killed the whole family; if not, he absolutely wouldn’t kill a single person more than necessary.

Your father strictly adhered to the principle of dealing justly, so he earned a lot of people’s respect,”

After finishing, Danny chuckled and said, “Oh, and your father valued the identity of Huaxia people highly.

When it came to Huaxia people, he could look at them in a different light and lend a hand whenever he could.”

“Can you tell me specifically what he’s done?”

Danny hesitated a moment, then shook his head and said, “Better not, it involves too many people, and some things are inconvenient to speak of.

What’s past is past, knowing it won’t do you any good.”

Yang Yi also hesitated briefly, then decided not to ask further.

It wasn’t appropriate to probe too deeply into someone’s past when the relationship was new; if the other party was unwilling to speak, it was best not to ask too much.

Just then, Danny lifted his teacup, smiled, and said, “Actually, I’m also curious about how your father died.

Of course, you can choose not to answer that.

Being a spy and dealing with intelligence, one always has some secrets that can’t be shared with others.”

Yang Yi replied softly, “He was killed by someone, but I don’t know who.”

Danny shook his head and said in a low voice, “A general can hardly escape death in battle.

What about you, then?

How did you end up mixed up with John Jones and his crowd?”

Yang Yi exhaled and said, “I want to be a spy, I want to figure out who killed my parents, so I thought I’d get into the business with Mr.

Jones.”

“How long has it been?”

“Fourteen days, no, fifteen days, it’s been exactly half a month since I met Mr.

Jones.”

“Only half a month, then it will be easier to manage.”

Just at that moment, the door to the private room was knocked. frёewebnoѵēl.com

The person who had taken Kate away was back, sitting down in the chair, he calmly said, “It’s over, nothing to worry about.”

Danny poured a cup of tea for the man who had taken Kate and then smiled at Yang Yi, “Zhao Yao, my brother Ah Yao, this is Yang Sheng’s son.”

Zhao Yao nodded to Yang Yi and said in a deep voice, “Pleased to meet you.”

“Thanks, can I go see her?”

Unable to contain himself, Yang Yi stood up, clearly still concerned for Kate’s safety.

Danny laughed and said, “Of course you can, there’s nothing for you here anymore.

We’ll talk about anything else tomorrow morning.

Follow me.”

He got up and led Yang Yi to a small room at the back of the hotel.

The room was very clean, without a single trace of blood.

Kate had one hand hooked up to a plasma transfusion, the other to an IV drip, covered by a white sheet.

“There’s no danger now, but she hasn’t awakened from the anesthesia yet.

I’ll have you both taken to the hotel upstairs later, uh, I don’t have any women here, so you’ll have to look after her yourself,”

After speaking, Danny poked his head out and called loudly to the outside, “Ah Yao, come help take them upstairs, you’ll stay in the hotel tonight too.

Keep an eye on things; it’ll be easier to handle anything that comes up.”

Yang Yi couldn’t help asking, “Stay at the hotel?

Is that okay?”

Danny smiled and said, “The hotel is right above the restaurant; you’ll be absolutely safe here.

I’ll say it again, this is Dark Night Knight’s turf.”
