time, let's go to the Tiger Clan now.Warmed by the words, he paled slightly, reached down and patted his belly, then looked up and nodded firmly. The other three beastmen didn't object.The ripple then...She was just mythologized by you all, after all, she is just one person.

David said with a hint of disdain.

Immediately, he saw Andrew's slightly displeased expression and quickly added:

"Mr. Andrew, please rest assured, I understand the rules here and will not make things difficult for you."

David assured him.

Andrew also understood. The other party meant that things would be fine on their turf, but once they left, they were no longer responsible for them.

"Good luck!"

Andrew held back his advice, letting the other person hit a wall themselves. He figured when it really hurt, they'd finally believe him.

David raised his glass and finished his drink before leaving the party. While he didn't put much stock in the Blood Peony, that didn't mean he was going to be careless. Some preparation was still necessary.

The next day, Ripples called Andrew in the afternoon.

Andrew gently told Ripple that David agreed to meet, but there seemed to be other intentions behind it, so she should be careful.

Ripples understood Andrew's subtext. After hanging up the phone, she muttered "old fox" and went to the party.

On her way, she immediately noticed something amiss. There were many more members of the action squad on the streets, and some unfamiliar faces seemed to be loitering around. Although these people had disguised themselves well, they were somewhat amateurish in front of Ripple, who was a master of disguise herself.

The ripples did not change color and immediately returned to headquarters, going directly to the intelligence gathering department.

As expected, the Information Gathering Department's main office was deserted. But she heard a noise coming from Eileen's office and walked straight over to knock on the door.

"Come in!"

Inside came Eileen's voice.

After entering, Lian Yi bowed respectfully. Looking at Yilin who was fully armed and preparing to go out, she said calmly:

"Eileen, Chief Inspector, our chief inspector asked me to tell you that the information you received about the Blood Poppy appearing at tonight's gala is false."

Upon hearing this, Yilin paused her action of putting on her coat and turned back with a hint of surprise, asking:

How did you know

"Reporting to Commander Eileen, I'm not clear on the specifics. If you have any questions, you can ask our department head directly."

Eileen frowned, then decided it was best to ask for clarification. Wei Yi might know something about the inside story. People like them, intelligence agents, all have their own sources of information.

However

"Ripple lowered her voice and took two steps forward, saying mysteriously:"

"I heard the chief talking on the phone. It seemed that someone named David wanted to use murder, and he wanted to use our intelligence department for it. I didn't hear clearly about what David and Blood Peony had against each other."

A flash of anger crossed Eileen's eyes, and she immediately said coldly:

"You actually eavesdropped on the superior's phone call."

"Wei the section chief opened the door without sparing me a glance. Doesn't that count as eavesdropping"

Ripples rolled her eyes and muttered:

"You asked me, and now you're putting the blame on me. You're so hard to deal with."

Irene didn't bother with the ripples, preparing to ask for clarification. Though she wanted to kill Blood Peony, she didn't want to be David's pawn.

Ripples instinctively stepped aside, letting the superior officer walk in front, then with a swift hand chop, he knocked out Irin directly. He closed the door and locked it, placing her on the chair.

The ripple quickly swept through the entire office, coming up empty until she finally turned her gaze to the unconscious Eileen.

The other party was so insistent on getting the Blood Peony, it was likely more than just because of Li Li's death. She always felt there were other reasons, and she knew that if she asked Eileen directly, the other party wouldn't tell the truth. So she simply knocked the other party unconscious.

Since she couldn't find the answer in the office, she looked for clues on Eileen.

She searched Irine's entire body, finding nothing but guns and knives. Ripple, unwilling to give up, even checked the other person's jewelry, but still found nothing particularly noteworthy.

The ripples flipped the other person's body, the force uncontrolled, tearing open the back of her collar. Then, on the middle of her shoulder blade, she discovered a tattoo.

The moment she saw the tattoo, it all clicked for her. Because on Jiro Fujimori, there was an identical tattoo in the exact same spot.

This is what the original body saw when they were bullied. The original body fought back fiercely, scratching the other person's back, and only then accidentally discovered the tattoo. For this, they were even beaten up and lay in bed for three days.

Looking at Eileen in front of him, ripples flashed a trace of killing intent in his eyes. It turned out that Eileen was a spy lurking from the country of Japan, and her relationship with Fujiwara Jiro must not be ordinary. As an intelligence officer, before the agreement was torn apart, she definitely knew that Fujiwara Jiro died at the hands of the Blood Peony.

On that day, the person she assassinated was a Japanese military officer. They were just discarded soldiers, and the purpose was to allow her to infiltrate deeper. The appearance of Fujiwara was an accident, and Eileen hadn't expected it at all.

Ripples seized the opportunity to avenge herself and clear the obstacles, while Eileen lost her important companions because of this, so she has been relentlessly pursuing Blood Peony ever since.

When she met Eileen and the M-country intelligence broker at the banquet, she suspected the purpose of their meeting. Andrew's words on the phone, and the action team members along the way to the banquet, all prove that David contacted Eileen.

David probably didn't know about the private grudge between the two sides, and thought he could use the Nationalist Party's pursuit of Bloody Peony to help him kill her.

Ripple looked at the sunrise tattoo and decisively finished off her opponent. This time, she shoved Eileen into a wooden cabinet inside the office and locked it. Then, she locked the office door, making sure no one saw. Afterward, she grabbed her bag and left.

By nightfall, Ripple donned her black nightclothes and silently crept to the M country ambush location, sending all those soldiers to meet their maker. After completing her task, she sheathed her Lei Yao dagger and then called the gala venue, requesting David to answer.

"Hello, Mr. David, I am Peony."

The ripples of sound passed through the receiver into David's ear. The person holding the phone tightened their grip, then casually said:

"Hello, Ms. Peony, it's a pleasure to finally meet you. Andrew told me you wanted to do business with me, and I've been waiting eagerly. When will you be available"

"I'm so sorry, but I can't meet today. David wasn't sincere, so I canceled our meeting. However, I got you a gift, hope you like it."

After saying that, she chuckled lightly and hung up the phone.

Across from him, David suddenly felt a tightness in his chest. A bad feeling washed over him. He seemed to have thought of something, his face changed instantly, he threw down the phone and hurriedly left the party.

Half an hour later, he went to see Andrew with a pale face.

"Andrew, they're all dead!"

David's speech was rambling and incoherent.

But Andrew understood, what David had done. He could vaguely guess.

"My dear David, you've angered the Blood Peony. That's not a good thing!"are people I rely on, there are some things I feel the need to tell you."Ripple was stroking the whirlwind and said.Both Zhen Mama and Mei Zhi put on an air of attentive listening.My wet nurse left ea...
