In the presidential suite of a hotel in Kyoto.
Saladin handed the video captured during the previous operation to Bruny.
As he watched the videos, Bruny's previously ashen face gradually broke into a smile.
Although it didn't cause any significant losses to the Dragon Group or Huaxia, he knew the ancient Huaxian saying, "A thousand-mile embankment can be destroyed by an ant's nest!"
While such small incidents might not amount to much if they happened occasionally, if they occurred frequently, they would undoubtedly cause panic among the civilians, leading to great chaos in Kyoto.
As Huaxia's security department, the Dragon Group would certainly not want such a thing to happen, but they were powerless to stop it.
In the end, they might have to sacrifice Ye Cangtian to stabilize the situation.
With that thought, Bruny looked at Saladin and said faintly, "You did quite well this time, striking a blow to the Dragon Group's morale, but it's not enough, nor does it cancel out your mistake!
Therefore, you must continue to work hard and produce new 'works'."
Hearing this, the anxious Saladin finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He nodded repeatedly and said, "My Lord Bruny, rest assured, I have already made arrangements for tonight's operation. I guarantee that even more spectacular works will be presented tomorrow morning."
"Good! Then I will await your works!"
Hearing Bruny's words, Saladin responded, then quickly stepped forward and said, "My Lord Bruny, I've heard that a certain massage parlor offers excellent services. I've already booked the entire place. I hope you'll grace us with your presence..."
After all, he had just made a major mistake, and Bruny was still displeased. Saladin was racking his brains to please him.
"Haha."
Upon hearing this, Bruny burst into laughter and said, "Since you are so sincere, I cannot refuse. Let's go at once..."
...
Late at night.
Not many lights were left on in Kyoto as figures swiftly moved through the night breeze.
"Captain, everything is in place."
A voice came from the walkie-talkie. Shangguan Yun heard this and glanced at Ye Cangtian beside him, saying, "Everything is ready. We can proceed."
Ye Cangtian nodded, then tossed away the cigarette butt in his hand and walked with Shangguan Yun directly into a Sino-foreign joint venture hotel in front of them.
"Sir, are you checking in or looking for someone? How can I help you?"
As the two entered the hotel, a welcoming lady at the front desk quickly approached and asked respectfully.
Ye Cangtian just smiled, then winked at Shangguan Yun.
Shangguan Yun immediately understood and quickly took out his identification.
Looking at the identification in Shangguan Yun's hand, the welcoming lady understood everything and quickly made way.
After all, this was a five-star hotel, and the staff here had a certain level of ability and insight. They recognized the identification of Huaxia's security department.
The fact that the other party had shown their identification meant they were on official duty. If they didn't ask for their assistance, they naturally could not interfere.
Meanwhile, seeing the welcoming lady step aside, Ye Cangtian walked into the elevator and pressed the button for the top floor.
On the top floor, there were two presidential suites.
As Ye Cangtian and Shangguan Yun stepped out of the elevator, they saw two men in black standing guard at the door of one of the rooms.
"Who are you!"
At the same time, the two men at the door also spotted Ye Cangtian and Shangguan Yun and immediately questioned them.
After all, when they checked in, they had explicitly informed the hotel that no one was allowed on the top floor unless summoned by them.
And someone arriving at this time was clearly not their intention.
However, after they spoke, they saw the faces of the other party, and their faces immediately broke out in a cold sweat.
"Ye... Ye Cangtian!"
What kind of strength would the guards at the door have?
Compared to Ye Cangtian, they were absolutely insignificant!
And since Ye Cangtian had found his way here, he must be aware of their identities. Therefore, their minds were now filled with thoughts of how to save their own lives.
"Heh heh, it's easier if you recognize me."
"Do you want to go inform Bruny that a distinguished guest has arrived, or do you want to fight me directly?"
Seeing that they had recognized him, Ye Cangtian smiled and said calmly.
As soon as he finished speaking, one of the guards quickly said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ye, we cannot inform him. Lord Bruny is not in the room."
"Hmph, even now, you're still not being honest!"
Hearing this, Shangguan Yun immediately snorted and stepped forward, slapping the guard across the face.
*Slap!*
The guard saw Shangguan Yun's hand coming towards him but dared not dodge. He took the blow heavily and fell to the ground.
He knew that if he dodged or fought back, he would surely lose his life.
"Heh heh, you're quite sensible."
Looking at the guard who had gotten back up from the ground, Ye Cangtian smiled playfully. Judging by his willingness to take the beating, the guard was likely telling the truth.
The reason was simple: if Bruny were present, why would the guard be willing to be humiliated like this? He would have already cried for help.
With that in mind, Ye Cangtian continued, "Alright, tell me, where did Bruny go?"
"Reporting to you, sir, we really don't know. If you want to know, you can ask Miss Winnie who stayed in the room," the guard said quickly.
Huh?
Upon hearing this, Ye Cangtian nodded, took out two bottles of Feng Ling Pills, and threw them to the guard. "Take them."
The two guards hesitated for a moment before finally taking the Feng Ling Pills.
There was no other option; one had to bow to the superior when under their roof! The other party had the power to take their lives at any moment, so to survive, they could only follow the other party's arrangements.
Meanwhile, seeing that the two had taken the pills, Ye Cangtian signaled them to open the door.
*Creak!*
The door opened, and a woman's voice immediately came out.
"My Lord Bruny, you're back..."
Following the sound, Ye Cangtian cast his gaze, and just as he did, a figure walked out from a small room within the suite.
It was a tall, beautiful foreign woman. The moment she saw them, she froze in place.
Immediately, her eyes revealed a look of fear, clearly recognizing Ye Cangtian.
"Winnie, is it? Judging by your expression, I don't think I need to introduce myself, do I?"
Seeing her nervous expression, Ye Cangtian smiled slightly, then entered the room and sat on the sofa.
He then crossed his legs, lit a cigarette, took a couple of puffs, and waved his hand, signaling her to come and talk.
Seeing this, Winnie dared not disobey and quickly stepped forward. "Mr. Ye, why are you here?"
"That's not something you should be concerned about."
Ye Cangtian glanced at her, took a puff of his cigarette, and said, "You should think about whether you want to die or live!"
"Sir, I want to live!"
"I'm just Winnie, Bruny's liaison. I haven't done anything wrong. Sir, please don't kill me. I promise to tell you everything..."
Hearing Ye Cangtian's words, Winnie realized that she still had a chance to live and quickly said.
"Very good, that's a good attitude."
A satisfied smile appeared on Ye Cangtian's face, and he then asked, "Tell me, where did Bruny go? Is there any operation tonight?"
"My Lord Bruny was taken away by Lord Saladin. They said they found a very good massage parlor, and he went to experience it."
"As for tonight's operation, these were all arranged by Lord Saladin, and Lord Bruny only looks at the results, so I am not privy to these details."
Winnie replied quickly, not daring to hide anything.
Hearing this, Ye Cangtian's brow furrowed.
He realized a serious problem: he might have come too late today, and perhaps the Church of Light had already launched their operation.
There was nothing he could do about it.
Although he had obtained Bruny's location from Hassall during the day, he had promised Hassall to create the illusion of an intelligence base being compromised.
Therefore, he had been waiting for news from Viper and Porpoise. It was only an hour ago that he received their replies and immediately took action.
But in the end, he was still a step too late.
Thinking to himself, he glanced at Winnie and said again, "I ask you, where are the other people distributed?"
