The boss of the assassin world actually appeared in this place, and became a mother.
Who would believe it if this was told?
Joanna's master was an excellent assassin and one of the few people who had seen the boss of the assassin world.
He told Joanna many legends of the assassin world, especially about such a legendary figure who was rarely seen.
The reason she recognized her was that she had seen a photo of the two of them in her teacher's wallet.
Ilena had always been a legend in the assassin world, but no one had ever known her name.
Joanna clearly remembered that there was such a photo in her master's wallet, with Ilena and her master leaning closely together.
At that time, her master was very devoted, but in the end, it came to nothing, and Ilena completely disappeared.
Ilena was not called Ilena at that time. As an assassin, having more than a dozen or twenty names was very normal.
It is unknown how many names this current name was in her life.
From her master's mouth, Joanna learned that this so-called Ilena was once the number one assassin in the assassin syndicate, and she almost never failed.
After the only failure, she disappeared completely.
Joanna never expected to meet Ilena in this place, and that she had already become her master's wife and had given birth to a son.
If this were to be spread, it would likely cause an earthquake in the assassin world.
Joanna dared not spread this news, and she thought about it a lot.
She couldn't muster any thought of resistance towards her master.
Guo Xuyang did not pay attention to Joanna, nor did he expect that Joanna would actually know Ilena.
He sent Jiang Qixin out.
"I'm not going back tonight, let's have dinner. Your father mentioned your marriage with Xiao Xi again just now," Jiang Qixin said.
"As long as you don't leave, I can take care of your food and drinks every day. However, I really can't participate in that matter anymore."
"It's okay, then I'll go out for a walk first."
"Shall I take my car?"
"No, I've already arranged for a car. You go back."
Jiang Qixin said as he got into a car parked by the roadside.
Now Lu Liang holds a deputy position in the Provincial Capital's State Security Bureau, mainly responsible for investigating infiltration by foreign spies.
Not long after he arrived at the office, he received a call from Jiang Qixin.
"Boss, what's up?"
"Where are you? I'm at Yangzi's house in the provincial capital now."
"I just arrived at the office. I'll come over to find you."
"No need, just arrange a car for me. I'll send you my location."
"Okay, do I need to pick you up personally?"
"No. I'll talk to you at your office in the morning."
"Okay."
This was what Jiang Qixin said when he went to the restroom to call Lu Liang. That's why there was a car waiting for him at the entrance of Yangzi's house.
The car took him directly to a villa.
This is a secret stronghold of the State Security Bureau.
Lu Liang worked there.
"The environment here is quite nice," Jiang Qixin said, looking at the villa.
"It's also for the convenience of work. When did you arrive?"
"I arrived last night."
"What's the matter? So urgent?"
"It's all because of the Star Scavenging Operation. Yangzi has thrown in the towel.
That kid Li Ziyu found him that day and wanted to run him over, but Ye Zi saved him.
Ye Zi disappeared. Yangzi took this as an excuse and refused to participate in this operation.
"Is Ye Zi okay?"
"How would I know if Ye Zi is okay or not? Anyway, he insists that Ye Zi cannot be found.
I can tell from his expression that this guy is lying.
But there's nothing I can do to expose his lie. That's why I came to find you."
"Finding me won't help either. Boss, you think too highly of me. I can't persuade him either."
"Do you remember when you were trapped? I want you to ask him to participate, and he should agree."
"Boss, aren't you putting me in a difficult position?"
"There's no other way, you have to help me.
Yangzi was recommended by me to the higher authorities, and his achievements are visible to all.
Now Yangzi says he won't do it and just quits, how can I explain to the higher authorities?
I can't tell the higher authorities that Yangzi became a deserter. If that happens, it will completely ruin Yangzi's life."
"Then I'll try. Have you eaten?"
"I've eaten. I ate at Yangzi's house. Xiao Xi is pregnant."
"Pregnant? No wonder they are in such a hurry to get married."
"If they don't get married soon, she won't be able to hide it. This morning, I saw that Xiao Xi's belly was quite noticeable.
This morning, I heard his father say that they are planning to get married on the twelfth of next month and invited me for drinks tonight to discuss Yangzi's marriage. Are you free tonight?"
"I don't have anything planned for tonight. You can call me then and I'll come over."
"Why call? Let's go together.
Then you can find an opportunity to call him out, tell him my intentions, and ask him to participate in the operation, and see his reaction.
If he still doesn't go, you don't need to force him, just tell me."
"That's easy. I'll just call him."
"If you call now, won't Yangzi know that I'm with you?"
"Okay then. I'll come over tonight."
"There's one more thing, Yangzi took in a servant, a very beautiful foreign woman. I think this woman is not simple."
"There's such a thing?"
"He said it himself this morning. I think this woman is one of the assassins who came to kill him last time.
You can send people to investigate her and get her background."
"I'll arrange this right away. Please sit down, I'll be right back."
"I won't sit. I haven't rested well last night because of this matter.
I'm going to find a hotel to sleep, and we'll go to Yangzi's place together for dinner tonight."
"Alright then, shall I have someone take you there?"
"No need. I came to see you for official business, and I won't take advantage of public resources for my rest."
Jiang Qixin said, waving his hand, and went out.
"Joanna, do you know me?" Ilena asked.
"No." Joanna shook her head quickly.
She dared not admit that she knew Ilena, as it would be suicidal.
"Then why are you looking at me strangely?"
"No. I look at everyone like this."
"Then why are you acting evasive?" Ilena pressed on.
"She is my servant, and also your servant. Isn't it normal for a servant to look at their master evasively?" Guo Xuyang said.
"Don't interrupt. Joanna, have you seen me before?" Ilena retorted.
"No."
"Are you sure? But..."
"But what?" Ilena pressed.
"I think I saw you in a photograph."
"Oh? Then look at him?" Ilena pointed at Guo Yiyang.
"Yes. She looks very much like this beautiful lady too. But..."
