154 Hellgate
Shi Man could not stay outside for long at night. In order to avoid any accidents at home leading to the discovery that she was not around, she had to end it quickly.
According to the address Sean had given her, Shi Man sneaked over in the night. When she arrived, she realized that she was near a pier.
Shi Man was very satisfied with this location. It was suitable for trading at the docks, which meant that a large sum of money would enter her account.
She narrowed her eyes in the night. In her previous life, she had infiltrated the enemy’s hidden base too many times. She knew too well where these people were used to hiding the true core location.
She entered the dock with the experience she had accumulated in the past. Sure enough, she found the office of the boss of Hellgate. Thinking of the wounds Sean and the others suffered, Shi Man sneered and skillfully knocked on the safe.
She wanted to get some medical fees first, but she did not expect to see a military grenade. This was a good thing and could save her a lot of trouble.
After carefully putting the item in her pocket, Shi Man took away an appropriate amount of money. Just as she was about to do the next thing, the office door was suddenly pushed open.
She hurriedly hid in a hidden place and hid her aura, almost becoming one with the tall cabinet.
The person who came in was a cold-faced man in a suit. He glanced coldly at his secretary behind him and scolded angrily, “You can’t even do such a small thing and dare to come back to see me! What Immaculate? There are only a few people in total, and you can’t even handle them. What’s the use of raising you, good-for-nothings!”
The secretary lowered his head timidly and hurriedly bowed to apologize to him. “Boss, I’m sorry. We were careless this time and allowed the Immaculate people to transfer the supplies in advance.”
The man snorted coldly, turned around, walked behind the desk, and slowly sat down. His hawk-like sharp eyes stared intently at the secretary and said, “Are their people vigilant, or is someone leaking information behind the scenes!”
The secretary was slightly stunned when he heard this. He hurriedly raised his head and said in disbelief, “That’s impossible, right? The brothers who participated in this operation were all carefully selected. There’s no possibility of them leaking the news!”
The man was even angrier when he heard this. He said bluntly that the secretary was a blockhead and suggested resentfully, “If they didn’t leak anything, can’t someone else in Hellgate sense our actions and secretly spread the news?”
The secretary thought about this possibility carefully and screened everyone who could come into contact with the secret core in his mind, but he still felt that he had no clue. “But even if that’s the case, the main force of Immaculate is in M City. They shouldn’t be familiar with Hellgate. Why would someone be willing to take the risk of being discovered by us to inform them in advance?”
This was something he could not figure out no matter what. To the various large factions in G City, Immaculate was like an outsider. Although it was developing rapidly, it did not have a foundation and did not have any interaction with the people from the various large factions. Therefore, many old factions did not take Immaculate seriously.
In G City, the underworld forces were intertwined. There was no absolute innocence between each force. Sending people to infiltrate an opposing force was already a tacit method, so it was not very accurate to say that this operation was top secret.
Hellgate could guarantee that the people from the Immaculate Sect would not know in advance, but they could not guarantee that the people from the other large factions would also know nothing.
But so what if Immaculate’s development momentum was fierce? The foundation of these families, who had been in the black market for several generations, was not something that any random force could compare to.
The man narrowed his eyes and stared at the teacup in front of him in a low voice. He said slowly, “This is what I’m most worried about. Perhaps Immaculate has already formed an alliance with someone. Otherwise, I don’t believe that they can reach the sky in such a short period of time and even predict our sneak attack in advance.”
The secretary pondered for a moment. The more he thought about it, the more shocked he became. If it was really as their boss had guessed, the current Immaculate could not be underestimated. Moreover, they might have already offended some big shot in tonight’s operation.
Thinking of this, the secretary couldn’t help but look at the man sitting at the head of the table nervously and say, “Then what should we do next? Should we kill them while they’re injured?”
The man narrowed his eyes dangerously. He clearly knew that this was the best way to settle this once and for all. Although they had failed in one strike, they had accidentally probed the other forces of Immaculate. Even if he wanted to attack, it was inevitable that he would be wary. “Contact Nighthawk’s boss immediately and say that I have something very important to discuss with him. Tell him to meet me at the usual place tomorrow night.”
“Okay.” The secretary nodded and walked out of the office with a serious expression to complete the mission given by his boss.
The man was sitting behind his desk, pondering the power behind Immaculate. He was caught off guard and was held in front of his neck by a silver knife.
The man had experienced big scenes and was not particularly afraid. Instead, he asked very calmly, “Who are you? Why are you here to kill me?”
