Chapter 69: Blade of Vengeance

Chapter 69: Blade of Vengeance
Gao Yi only needed to wait in the hotel, but Sean was responsible for making all the preparations.

There was only a little over a day, but it could be seen from the evacuation that Sean was very well prepared.

When Sean was preparing the vehicle, he took into account the possibility of needing to get closer to the castle, so he prepared an off-road vehicle, but not long after the off-road vehicle drove onto the road, Sean drove onto a country road.

On the way, Gao Yi briefly recounted what happened in the castle.

When Gao Yi had almost finished speaking and the car had driven about ten kilometers, Sean suddenly said, "Let's stop here and take a few minutes to confirm whether this woman is Andek's consumable material."

After parking the car and opening the door, Sean observed the nun's face again with the help of the roof light. He then stroked her eyebrows with his fingers, opened her eyelids with his hands and looked at her carefully. Then he picked up another hand and observed her carefully. He suddenly said, "There is no disguise."

Gao Yi learned all his judgment methods from Sean, except that Sean added the gesture of using his fingers to pluck his eyebrows.

"Yes, I have checked, and there is definitely no disguise."

Sean looked at the nun slumped in the back seat, thought for a moment, and said, "She said she waited seven years?"

"Yes."

Sean sighed and whispered, "The quality is very high. Beautiful women are a scarce resource. If it were the Andek Group, they wouldn't have to let their killers prepare for a mission for seven years. Also, they wouldn't treat such high-quality resources as disposable items. It would be a waste."

Gao Yi was puzzled and asked, "Is there any explanation?"

Sean shrugged and said, "Using beauties of this level as consumables is very efficient, but also very wasteful. In simple terms, the Andek Group can train good raw materials into excellent killers for repeated use."

“Isn’t using consumables a sign of greater strength?”

"Look at the cost-effectiveness, the input-output ratio. I don't think this woman is from Endek. Only a killer organization with a long history can produce such a product."

Gao Yi was not used to it. Using words like consumables, resources, and products to describe a living person made him feel uncomfortable instinctively.

Because if Gao Yi was in a killer organization, he would also be considered consumables.

Sean didn't care about Gao Yi's feelings. He continued, "A killer organization with a long history has enough time to train enough consumables. The growth period of a consumable is about ten years. This woman is at most a little over twenty years old. We have been training her since she was ten years old. Now is almost the time for her to be rewarded. She is still a novice, so this should be her first time to be used."

Gao Yi was surprised and asked, "Wait, a young girl... uh, how did you know that?"

"Eyebrows. A young girl's eyebrows are close to her skin. If they are not, they will stand straight up."

Sean quickly answered Gao Yi's question, then he touched his chin and whispered, "She should be the product of a killer organization in Europe. The two organizations that can cultivate consumables and use them in large quantities are God's Armed Forces and the Blade of Vengeance. God's Armed Forces can't waste such a beauty as consumables, so the only one left is the Blade of Vengeance. She is a consumable for the Blade of Vengeance."

Sean has already determined the nun's origins.

Gao Yi asked in surprise: "Why are you so sure?"

"Isn't this simple? If this woman's fate is controlled by you, and you can decide her life or death, then would you be willing to send her to an old man's bed so that she can take this opportunity to kill the old man and finally die at the hands of the old man's bodyguards? Would you be willing to do that?"

Gao Yi glanced at the nun and said, "It's not a question of whether I will give it up or not, but I will never do such a thing."

"Just ask if you are willing to give it up?"

"Uh, I'm reluctant."

Sean spread his hands and said, "That's right. The superior of the Blade of Vengeance is an old woman. Only women can be so cruel to other women, so she can only be a consumable for the Blade of Vengeance."

That makes sense. It makes a lot of sense.

Sean continued, "The Blade of Vengeance maintains a rhythm of one major mission per year, but the Blade of Vengeance doesn't have any famous killers. They either don't do any missions, or they do a major mission. So someone has long since made the judgment that the Blade of Vengeance mainly uses consumables. Their annual constant of consumables is about ten. But before, we didn't know the operating mode of the Blade of Vengeance. Now, you may have found an opportunity to understand the Blade of Vengeance."

"Huh? Uh, oh..."

Gao Yi didn't know what to say, because this was Sean's judgment based on experience, and all he could do was listen.

Sean exhaled, and said with a hint of regret: "Wake her up and ask her and you'll know. Don't say anything, I'll ask."

It is very easy to wake up the nun. Just take a bottle of water and pour it over her head.

The nun woke up, her eyelashes fluttered, and the first thing she did when she woke up was to get up in a hurry.

Gao Yi held the nun's shoulders from behind, and then Sean whispered, "Garden, Bee, say hello to Blade. Today's operation collided, but we have no intention of competing with the Blade of Vengeance."

After Sean said this series of words, the nun looked terrified. Then she said in a trembling voice: "You, you, you..."

"How do I know you are from the Blade of Vengeance? It's simple. You just need to tell Blade what happened today, and he will know why."

Sean seemed confident, but the nun looked confused and asked, "Blade...who is it?"

Killers are very good at disguising their true thoughts, because consumables are often only used once, and they especially need to be able to hide their identity as killers, so acting skills are the most important training course.

Sean noticed the changes in the nun's expression, but he didn't care much. He just said calmly: "Your target was killed by us, but it was just a coincidence, and my partner saved you. Do you admit it?" The nun did not answer directly. She thought about it and wanted to turn around to look at Gao Yi who was pressing on his shoulder.

Gao Yi exerted a little more force with his hand, and the nun stopped turning her head. She stopped and whispered, "Thank you."

Saying thank you is an admission, Gao Yi whispered, "You're welcome."

Sean smiled and said, "Very good, we have reached a consensus. May I ask if you are really a nun?"

Sean asked again, and the nun hesitated for a moment and said, "It's none of your business."

"You are not. You are the assassin of the Blade of Vengeance. That means you can't be a nun. Now please tell me, why did you pretend to be a nun and wait for seven years?"

Sean finished his questioning, and then he said sincerely: "This is outdated information. Tell me, Blade will never blame you. After you tell me, I will let you go and let you tell Blade a message. In this way, we both get what we want."

The nun hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Because... Diso's childhood experience."

"Oh?"

"Diso was born in the 93rd district. His mother was a prostitute. The environment he grew up in was full of prostitutes and unfaithful women. He hated such women from the bottom of his heart, so he liked nuns who lived a simple life in the monastery, especially virgin girls. Around 1994, a nun disappeared in a monastery in north London. From 1994 to 2000, a nun disappeared almost every year. The police invested a lot of energy in the investigation, and then the phenomenon disappeared until it appeared again in 2007, and then it happened sporadically."

The nun exhaled softly and said, "In the beginning, it was Diso who sent people to do it. Since 07, it was Henry who sent people to do it. He just wanted to please Diso. I was taken away from the monastery yesterday and sent to the castle here. That's it."

Right.

Sean nodded and said, "There is one thing I don't understand. According to the plan of the Blade of Vengeance, you will definitely be sent to Diso's bed. It has nothing to do with Henry's charity dinner. So why did the Blade of Vengeance choose to offer a reward for Henry on the dark web?"

The nun frowned and said, "I don't know. I don't know what you are talking about. What dark web? What reward?"

Sean thought for a moment and suddenly said, "I understand!"

Gao Yi had already understood a lot of things, but he hadn't figured out the overall situation yet, so he immediately looked at Sean with an inquiring look.

Sean smiled and said to the nun, "You can go now."

Gao Yi let go of the nun's shoulders. The nun was a little bit unconvinced. She moved slightly and looked back at Gao Yi again. After finding that Gao Yi did not move, she finally whispered: "Thank you."

The nun got out of the car, and Sean made way to the side. The nun took two steps forward and said to Gao Yi again, "What's your name?"

Gao Yi did not answer. He was still thinking about what his name should be when the nun suddenly said, "Your name is Heather."

That was fake and would be discarded after one use, but Gao Yi would definitely not give his real name, not even the code name Bu San.

The nun looked at Sean again, took two steps back, then suddenly turned around and ran hurriedly into the night.

Gao Yi sighed softly, and Sean also sighed, then said to Gao Yi: "What a pity."

Gao Yi shook his head, and then he suddenly shouted in the direction where the nun disappeared: "Hey, nun, you are just a consumable, a cannon fodder... Don't go back, run for your life!"

After shouting like this, he felt relieved, and then Gao Yi whispered: "Yeah, what a pity."

"I thought you were going to keep her."

Gao Yi shook his head and said, "If what you said is right, then she has been trained for ten years. She is a brainwashed consumable. All her physiological characteristics have been exposed, from her appearance to fingerprints and even DNA. Why should I stay here? Is she going to follow us and kill us?"

Sean said helplessly, "I am... I am a little moved. Do you really not like women? She has clearly expressed her affection for you, and you saved her."

Gao Yi felt very sorry, but his moral bottom line did not allow him to treat a woman in any immoral way, and he did not want to provoke a berserker, a brainwashed female killer, so he just shouted.

So Gao Yi just said calmly: "Do you think a cultivated consumable is so easily tempted?"

Sean spread his hands, got in the car, closed the door, and said, "You are very sober. I have never seen anyone at your age who can remain calm when encountering such a thing. Man, you are really a natural killer."

Gao Yi didn't want to continue Sean's conversation. He said lazily, "I thought you were going to kill her."

"We can't kill her. She is really consumable for the Blade of Vengeance, and this mission must be made public as Garden's masterpiece. Killing her will inevitably expose her. I don't want to create a new powerful enemy. Let her go and let her explain the situation at that time. It will also let the Blade of Vengeance know that we are not simply stealing business. This result is good for both parties."

That makes sense, but Gao Yi just said it casually to change the subject. After figuring out Sean's thoughts, he asked in confusion: "Have you figured out why the Blade of Vengeance wanted to offer a bounty for Henry on the dark web? I don't understand. Their plan clearly doesn't require this charity dinner."

Sean smiled and said, "Of course it is necessary. It is easy to understand. Since the Blade of Vengeance can formulate this plan based on Diso's hobbies, it means that they know Diso very well. In other words, they know that if they send her to Diso's home or somewhere else, the nun will have no chance to kill her. But if she is sent to the castle, she will have a chance to kill Diso."

All plans are based on intelligence. Gao Yi and his team lack intelligence, but the Blade of Vengeance has intelligence.

Now it became clear. Gao Yi sighed and said, "I see. They took advantage of Henry's selfishness. After Henry found out that he was wanted, he was worried that Diso would not attend his charity dinner. So he held the dinner earlier and used the nuns to lure Diso to the castle. This would give the nuns a better opportunity to take action."

Sean nodded, then smiled and said, "That's right, but let's change the time sequence. Henry captured the nun first, and then the Blade of Vengeance offered the reward. The Blade of Vengeance had enough intelligence, so they were able to understand Henry's mind, that's it."
