Chapter 4086: Chapter 4074: Channels for Identifying Identities

"That’s what I suspect," Lin Yi calmly said:

"But for now, whether it was them or not is still just speculation."

Saying this, Lin Yi stood up, "You guys rest here first," and said:

"I’ve caught a few people, I’ll interrogate them now to see if I can get anything out of it."

"Hmm?"

Qiu Yuluo got interested, "Where are they?"

"In the trunk."

With that, Lin Yi walked out.

A few people from the second group followed Lin Yi and Qiu Yuluo outside.

The trunk of the car was opened, and four people bound inside were lifted out and thrown to the ground.

The people from the second group brought the four captives into the house, tied them up, and hung them from the ceiling.

Before long, the four people regained consciousness.

Still a little dazed initially, they paled upon seeing Lin Yi sitting on the sofa.

This man held a notorious reputation worldwide, and now finding themselves caught by him, they dared not imagine the consequences.

Lin Yi sat silently in the chair, while the faces of the four turned ashen, and one of them urinated in fear, their terror of Lin Yi reaching an extreme.

"No need for this, calm down, all of you."

Lin Yi’s gaze swept over the four of them.

"I believe you figured out your target was the Central Guards Brigade when you acted, so encountering me is expected."

"I hope you can speak up about what you know, I don’t want to waste too much time and effort on you guys."

"We actually know nothing, we’re just hired agents; the boss behind us provided the info, and we attacked the Central Guard based on that," a big-bearded man said.

"Who is the boss behind you? What’s your transaction method?"

"We don’t know who they are, but they paid a lot of money. We did this for the money, after all."

"Now contact the person you communicated with, I want to meet them."

The people from the second group released the big-bearded man.

Standing on the ground, the big-bearded man’s body trembled as he nervously took out a communicator, trying to make contact.

But repeatedly, the communicator failed to connect.

"Please, don’t worry, maybe something delayed them, I’ll keep trying, I should be able to reach them."

Lin Yi nodded and wasn’t in a rush.

Sitting beside, Qiu Yuluo said:

"With their intelligence capability, they likely detected the battle results and forcibly cut contact; finding them through this channel will probably be impossible."

"There’s another way, which is to check their accounts and trace the source of this money."

"Leave that to me."

The big-bearded man kept trying to reach them but to no avail.

"I need your payment accounts, provide me with this information."

"Okay..."

The big-bearded man cooperated, providing the account. Whether anything could be uncovered depended on luck.

The people from the second group settled into rest.

By nightfall, those rested took over the first group.

Around midnight, Qiu Yuluo hurriedly approached Lin Yi.

"I found it; the transfer came from a personal account, owned by Kriston. For now, no connections to certain forces are visible."

"These people are indeed cautious," Lin Yi thought and said:

"Inform Boss Liu that the third and fourth groups completed the island task, send the second group to investigate this Kriston."

"Okay."

After arranging these matters, Qiu Yuluo also went to rest.

Not much could be done now; everything needed to be investigated thoroughly before the next step could proceed.

Two days passed, and the situation in Corea seemed to stabilize somewhat, even some minor conflicts ceased.

But to Lin Yi, this wasn’t good news, it was like the calm before the storm.

Once this calm is disrupted, no one knows what might happen.

...

At Dawn Hotel, in the top-floor presidential suite.

Kidd and Zheng Dongyuan sat on the sofa, drinking, both expressions calm, their thoughts unreadable.

"The Victory Shipyard mission failed, the Central Guards Brigade’s first group arrived at a critical moment," Zheng Dongyuan said:

"Those useless ones you arranged played no role in this action."

Zheng Dongyuan’s expression was indifferent, his face showed no anger, merely stating the fact.

Due to racial differences, the relations between the two weren’t great, but not too bad either, just normal coworkers.

"Don’t just look at the surface, from another angle, this isn’t a bad thing."

As Kidd savored the wine slowly, he spoke leisurely.

"If the second group of Central Guards were to be wiped out, their entire fighting sequence would return, including the Flame Dragon team on the island, meaning the Central Guard would fully wage war with us."

"Wage war? They couldn’t even find out who did it."

"You’re underestimating the Central Guard, and you’re underestimating Lin Yi. He’s an opponent no one should underestimate."

"I don’t see it that way. Even if those from the Flame Dragon team came, I’m not afraid, let alone him."

"But he can defeat A-level operatives; you’ll suffer if you underestimate him."

Kidd swirled the wine glass.

"There are detailed records in the organization about his global combat cases, do you think you can manage that? And if you think you can, can you promise no casualties for everyone?"

Zheng Dongyuan remained silent; he’d reviewed Lin Yi’s records multiple times.

Some combat cases seemed incredible even to him—certain death situations where Lin Yi still found a way to survive.

The one called Lin Yi indeed had something unique.

"What we need to do now is tighten our lines, do nothing in the short term, let others attract their firepower, and we just watch the show."

"You’d better be careful, don’t play too hard. If another organization catches the Central Guards, this mission of ours would be for nothing," Zheng Dongyuan said.

"Globally, few can catch Lin Yi," a noticeable smile appeared on Kidd’s lips:

"Honestly, I truly wish there would be an organization standing up to catch them."

"Why do your thoughts always differ from others?"

Kidd raised an eyebrow, glancing at Zheng Dongyuan.

"Why do you always equate me with those fools? Those sharing the same thoughts are already dead by Lin Yi’s blade."
