Chapter 642: Chapter 479: The Cruel Truth That’s Hard to Say_1 Chapter 642: Chapter 479: The Cruel Truth That’s Hard to Say_1 “What’s going on? Was it those two people just now?”

Orange Cat’s steel wire twitched in hand, ready to coordinate an attack with the force of the hurricane raging within him.

But just as he prepared to make a move, he discovered that the one lying at the car door was the woman who had introduced herself as Akasha earlier and then, out of the blue, ambushed them.

“Yes, it’s the two of them, I’d recognize them even if they turned to ash.”

“Master of the Fish Pond” watched for a few seconds and also nodded. They had almost been erased; they remembered it clearly.

And it was at this moment that the woman called “Vinnie” struggled to raise her head and looked at the several people in the car, emitting a weak voice:

“Please… help us…”

“When you ambushed us just now, you didn’t sound quite like this.”

Orange Cat didn’t even budge upon hearing this.

If it hadn’t been for Brother Shunzi just now, the two of them might really have flipped over.

Now, not knowing what they had encountered, they had suffered severe injuries and were again seeking help from them, thinking they had no temper?

To not kick these two out of the train with one foot was already generous enough, let alone help them?

How could that be possible!

“Ambush?”

Vinnie looked stunned and suddenly realized something. Just as she was about to explain herself, she couldn’t help but cough due to the urgency, and with each cough, blood spurted out, leaving her unable to speak.

In her frantic coughing fits, blood gushing from her mouth and nose, she suddenly fainted away.

“Ah… what?” Both were momentarily stunned.

Then, they turned to look at Akasha, who they had brought into the car, lying aside with even more severe injuries, looking hardly human…

“Master of the Fish Pond” and Orange Cat simultaneously turned to look at Colin, unsure of how to proceed.

However, as they turned, they saw a virtual ancient tree appear next to Brother Shunzi, its many roots flying from the tree to pierce into the bodies of the two enemies.

The two instinctively thought they were going to be used as fertilizer, but then they noticed that after the roots took hold, the vital signs of the two women actually began to rise?

“Let’s revive them first, then ask some questions to see what’s going on.”

Hearing Brother Shunzi’s words, they nodded at once, feeling that they had indeed been affected by resentment, thinking of vengeance when they saw their enemies, rather than extracting information before killing, like Brother Shunzi.

But, what they didn’t know was…

The actual situation at hand was a bit different from what they were thinking; Colin gazed at the two lying on the ground and the employee IDs above their heads, his expression showing some confusion.

“Path of Progress·Akasha.”

“Path of Progress·Vinnie.”

“Wasn’t it something like Night whatever Raniweya? Why has it changed to this? Did they change their names? Or is there some kind of inside story? No, it shouldn’t be…”

Colin squinted his eyes slightly, recalling some things. In a previous conversation, the employee with the name “Night Eagle: Ravinia” above his head would sometimes refer to himself as “Akasha”…

In a flash of thoughts, he shifted his gaze and looked again at “Vinnie.”

This one didn’t have a name above her head just now, but now she suddenly appeared as an employee, and not even a newbie.

Connecting various dots, could this be a case of mistaking Li Gui for Li Kui?

‘That’s right, just now Raniweya has been acting somewhat evasive, several times she tried to approach me, was her intention from the start to kill me? Her murderous intent was well hidden, I didn’t even notice…’ Colin realized the reason.

However, at the same time, Colin noticed that neither Orange Cat nor Master of the Fish Pond seemed able to see the IDs above each other’s heads…

If they had noticed that, they would certainly have realized something was wrong, but they hadn’t mentioned it.

Obviously, they couldn’t see them…

As for Raniweya, if she knew he could see the original name atop her head, she probably wouldn’t have chosen to appear before them at all.

‘Interesting, the wounds on this person match the methods of that ‘Raniweya,’ so, the current situation is, she deliberately assaulted these two and then pretended to meet us?’

‘What for, to stop me from proceeding to subsequent stops?’

‘Then does this mean, these two, knowing that I would move on, deliberately sought me out, which led to their being attacked?’

‘What would they want from me?’

Colin looked at the two people who had passed out from their serious injuries, a trace of confusion flickering in his eyes.

But in the next second, it was as if a flash of lightning crossed his mind.

Some things suddenly became clear…

‘These two, couldn’t they be the people mentioned in the mission notes, the ones coming to assist me?’

Colin’s eyebrows raised, suddenly realizing that if this was the case.

Everything could be explained.

Perhaps the “Branch Office” people had received “Lady Rabbit’s” message and then came this way, but en route they were assaulted by opposing personnel from another “Branch Office,” resulting in the current mistaken identity scenario.

‘But then again, these two are a bit lacking in strength, aren’t they? Li Kui can’t even defeat Li Gui.’

Colin muttered to himself.

Then, his gaze turned to the other two employees who had followed from Earth…

If this explanation held, namely: the two coming from the “Branch Office” were the supporters, then the identity of these two on this mission got a bit awkward.

‘They didn’t just come here to act as a Signal Tower, did they?’

If so, it felt like the company didn’t take them seriously enough…

“Can you see the IDs above their heads?”

Colin didn’t keep his guess to himself, he instead asked outright.

“No…” Both shook their heads at the same time.

This further confirmed to Colin the specific identities of these newcomers.
