didn't have that much to worry about. Since Xu Yi offered a lot of money and the other party remained unmoved, he set his sights on the other party's family. If soft wouldn't work, he would resort to...Wei Yi ignored Lian Yi's feigned weakness and slightly resentful gaze, directly having her help the next day before sending her away.

Ripple returned to the large office of the analysis department and began to sigh and complain, feeling that he had been let down by the head of the department.

"Little Wu, don't go against the director. After you pass this, perform well and strive to return to the Analysis Department as soon as possible."

Yang Bin soothed.

"I thought so too, but I guess they won't give me a chance. They might even get revenge, and I don't want to be played by them."

"This is the department head's order, you can't disobey it, just go with the flow!"

Ultimately, Lian Yi reluctantly went to the Intelligence Collection Department, but she only did the tasks assigned to her and wasn't willing to do anything extra.

Eileen has been so preoccupied with purchasing arms lately that she hasn't had much time for Ripple, giving her a period of leisure.

Before John Lee told her the specific time of the arms deal, all the alerts were gradually lifted. She had a feeling that the transaction was either happening or already complete, otherwise there wouldn't be such an abnormal situation.

The Kuomintang is clearly creating the impression that something major is about to happen, and they are fully prepared. They appear relaxed on the surface but are actually tightening their grip internally, all to lure people into a trap.

At the same time, Rin discovered that Eileen was starting to set a trap to frame her.

Several times, she was asked to be a messenger for confidential documents. She refused outright, saying so in front of everyone:

"Director Yi Lin, this is confidential information. As someone just here to help, I'm not qualified to handle it. Besides, this doesn't follow protocol for handling confidential documents. Please have your subordinates take care of it."

Without waiting for Yilin to retort, he left immediately and went to Wei Yi's place to complain and file a complaint, applying to be transferred back to the Intelligence Analysis Department.

Wei Yi nodded, but only said:

"I know about this. Just hold on for two more days, and I'll transfer you back."

Thank you, Section Chief.

Although she was reluctant, Ripples still agreed.

That evening, when Lian Yi returned home, she saw the little squirrel Chao Yang munching on peanuts in a fruit bowl, his cheeks bulging with each bite.

After seeing the ripples, it jumped onto her shoulders and rubbed against her cheeks affectionately.

Ripples understood this meant the underground party couldn't wait any longer. That night, she went to Old Zhou's residence.

"Peony, long time no see!"

Old Zhou said with a smile.

This is the first time they have met since they last blew up the Japanese headquarters.

"Long time no see. You had the sunrise notify me to meet, is it about arms dealing"

Ripples have always been straightforward.

"Yes, and some of our comrades in Pingbei were also being watched by the Nationalist Party."

Ripples frowned.

"Before you destroyed the headquarters, you should have evacuated some people. After that, didn't you evacuate the rest"

Before Japan surrendered, our people didn't dare to act rashly. After the surrender, some who had served under the KMT found opportunities to leave.

But recently they were successively monitored, some were forced to leave, but they disappeared after leaving Pingbei City.

Our comrade didn't get a response, so he could only pass me a message and ask me to think of a way.

I don't think that's very optimistic. They were definitely caught, but we have no evidence and can't just go demanding people.

Old Zhou's mood was somewhat gloomy, which proved that the intelligence provided by Peony before was becoming reality.

"The arms deal, I already have concrete information on it. But based on the intelligence I've received, the transaction location is not within Pingbei City."

While the KMT has raised a sum of money, its destination remains a mystery. According to my investigations, this money is being used by the KMT for arms deals.

You can tell people outside the loop to track where this money is going.

"Okay, I understand."

"You better figure out how to rescue all these comrades before you tear your face with the KMT, otherwise, if the agreement is torn apart, they will be the first victims, and you also need to make sure there are no traitors among them."

Ripples said calmly.

"Are you sure, Peony"

"OK." Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

How much longer

Three months.

I understand.

"As for the people who were arrested, give me the information and I'll take a look."

"Okay."

Lao Zhou seemed to have been prepared in advance, giving Lianri the list and photos of those missing persons.

The next day, when ripples came face-to-face with the Kuomintang action group, she saw a familiar face. It was the same person from the photo Lao Zhou had shown her the day before.

"Qianqian, do you guys have a plan"

The ripples is asking about the partner who trained with her before.

Qianqian just nodded and left without a word. She didn't feel particularly close to Lianyi.

The ripples aren't really trying to chat with the other person, they just used it as an excuse to stop walking and get a closer look at them.

The other party subconsciously lowered their head and quickened their pace to follow Qianqian away.

"We're all from the same period, how come you're so cold"

With a shake of her head, Lian Yi helplessly walked into the office building.

"Xiao Wu, Wei Chang is looking for you."

Yang Bin saw the ripples walking in and immediately said.

"Yang Gege, can I go back to the analysis department now"

"I'm not sure, but you should be careful. I just saw Irene go find our chief."

Yang Bin spoke in a low voice.

Ripple's face changed color after hearing this, and she gritted her teeth:

"I knew Eileen was deliberately asking me to help out, she's definitely going to get revenge."

"Hurry up and go!"

Yang Bin reminded again.

Thank you, Brother Yang.

Ripples thanked them and went straight to Wei Yi's office.

"Director Wei, are you looking for me"

After bowing in respect, Lian Yi asked.

"Yes, Irene the director said that they lost an important piece of information..."

“I have nothing to do with anything else. I only touch the files that end up in my hands. When Eileen, the chief, tried to make me take classified documents, I refused outright.”

"I didn't say it was you who lost it."

Wei Yi twitched the corner of his mouth and said.

After hearing this, Lian Yi looked at Wei Yi with some puzzled eyes.

"Irene knows the file loss has nothing to do with you and has narrowed down the suspects. She'll have them arrested once confirmed. She wants you to stay in the Intelligence Gathering Department for a little while longer to help with the investigation."

"I don't want to. I suspect this is a reason Eileen made up specifically to embarrass me."

Ripples refused firmly.

Wei Yi didn't force the other person, he could only temporarily end the topic.

The next day, while Ripple was working in the Intelligence Collection Department, she fainted directly.

Then, the ripples were diagnosed with anemia. She directly asked the doctor for a diagnosis to send to Wei Yi and Eileen, then went on sick leave without going to work.

Ilyn glared at the medical report in front of her, her teeth itching with anger. All of her plans had been completely ruined because of Ripples' vacation.holeheartedly.
