Chapter 1149: Chapter 1154: Busy as a Bee

Investigate Big Ivan, investigate Satan?

Yang Yi was truly stunned for a moment—the mission seemed to call for a precise strike.

The Organization of Water was fully involved in the surveillance of the ongoing power struggle within the Cicero Family, and if Yang Yi were to write an analysis report for Aaron, probably no one could produce a more accurate one than him.

But the question is, could Yang Yi write it?

Yang Yi didn’t know much about Big Ivan, but when it came to Satan, he was undoubtedly the most familiar stranger to Satan in the world.

Thankfully, they aren’t enemies, because thinking of Gong Yang always made Yang Yi feel a bit wary in his heart.

The pure, unreasoning force that Gong Yang held truly possessed a deterrent power.

The key point was that Satan had the Black Devil. Gong Yang had already assembled the most remaining forces of the Black Devil, especially with Yarebin, the King of Devils.

Therefore, opposing Satan is something that really requires courage, especially after gaining some understanding of the Mercenary Group. Although it is just a mercenary group, it’s not the cannon-fodder type—if you can’t finish them off in one go, it’s hard to say whether you can withstand Satan’s frenzied retaliation.

Why is it like this? Because if the Organization of Water could covertly make a move from the shadows, then it wouldn’t matter how skilled Gong Yang’s marksmanship was or how strong Satan’s combat power was, as long as Gong Yang didn’t know who the enemy was, right?

But another key point is the relationship between Satan and the cleaning crew...

Yang Yi didn’t know what the relationship was between Satan and the cleaning crew, but at the moment, their relationship seemed quite deep.

So, unless he’s determined to stand firmly on the side of the Grey-cloaked People, Yang Yi has no reason to be an enemy of Satan.

Aaron wants Yang Yi to investigate Satan and Big Ivan, but can Yang Yi refuse?

He certainly can’t refuse, but actually giving the intelligence to Aaron is impossible, and Yang Yi isn’t even certain if this is a test from Aaron.

It’s really a headache. Every move Aaron makes seems to catch Yang Yi off guard.

"You want me to investigate the current power struggle within the Cicero Family? Alright, no problem, I’ll investigate both Big Ivan and Satan together."

Yang Yi readily agreed to Aaron, but as for how he would actually proceed, in the end, it still depended on what was in his own best interest.

"Investigating the Cicero Family is secondary; the important thing is to investigate Big Ivan, and even more importantly, Satan."

The tone of Aaron remained as calm as ever.

Yang Yi said in astonishment, "Investigate a Mercenary Group? You mean to expend significant effort and resources on investigating a Mercenary Group? Is that necessary? It’s just a mercenary group."

Yang Yi had to display surprise, because for a CIA deputy director to pay attention to a mercenary group was in itself surprising.

Aaron continued calmly, "Yes, the Satan Mercenary Group is quite enigmatic. I once investigated them, but the yield was meager. However, I believe that you, with your background from the underground world, might bring me greater findings."

Yang Yi immediately responded, "Yes, sir, I understand. I will focus primarily on the Satan Mercenary Group and will provide you with results as soon as possible."

"The leader of the Satan Mercenary Group is named Gong Yang, a legendary figure. There’s a saying that Gong Yang is the number one sharpshooter. Now, this has evolved into Gong Yang being the number one gunman, hehehe..."

After Aaron chuckled dryly a few times, his tone suddenly changed, speaking in a low voice, "Help me look into who exactly this Gong Yang is. If you could find out his true identity or get a clear photo, then you would have completed your mission. Also, investigate the role Gong Yang played in the Ukraine incident."

Yang Yi whispered, "What does the Ukraine incident refer to?"

Aaron replied calmly, "You will be provided with detailed information, but only in electronic documents. After you read them, they must be destroyed. The investigation results of the Ukraine incident are important, but not only that. You need to specifically clarify the connection between Big Ivan and Satan."

"Yes, sir."

Aaron sighed and said, "I have high hopes for you. Do well, and I will await your good news. Goodbye."

After hanging up the phone with Aaron, Yang Yi immediately put down his current phone and switched to a satellite phone to call Annastasia.

"How are things on your end?"

"Everything is normal."

"Aaron just called me, asking me to investigate the link between Big Ivan and the Satan Mercenary Group. Hmm, how far has your progress reached?"

"Mario has fled. Justin and Satan are figuring out how to kill Mario, and if nothing unexpected happens, they will make their move during the Normandy landings commemoration ceremony."

Yang Yi paused again and said, "Many world leaders will attend that event, do they dare?"

"Yes, they do dare. There’s just some technical difficulty. Justin doesn’t want to disclose the specifics of the plan, and I haven’t seriously investigated it. If you think it’s necessary, I can try to find out their operational plan."

Yang Yi pondered for a moment and said, "No, let nature take its course. That is to say, if Satan really does take out Mario, then the Cicero Family will belong to Justin."

"Yes."

"Good, I understand. I will send the call log to you later, help me analyze why Aaron suddenly asked me to investigate Big Ivan and Satan. We’ll be in touch."

After hanging up, Yang Yi now believed that Justin had become the head of the Cicero Family, but this judgment was not based on rational analysis, but purely on Yang Yi’s intuitive belief. He just felt that Gong Yang would definitely be able to take down Mario, with no particular reason, just a simple belief.

Yang Yi made another call, this time to Bonnie.

"We’ll meet soon. Wait for me."

"Alright, I’ll wait for you at the hotel."

It was time to consult with the janitor. Aaron’s attitude was intriguing, and Yang Yi also wanted to know how the cleaner would react to the CIA’s interest in Satan Gong Yang.

While Yang Yi was considering how to deal with the next steps, his mobile phone lit up for a moment. He picked it up and saw that a file had been sent to his phone.

Having taken so long to come through, the file must be large, containing at least a video, and the video likely had a long duration.

Regarding the Ukraine incident mentioned by Aaron, Yang Yi actually had a rough understanding, and he was quite certain that Gong Yang was involved in that incident.

While Yang Yi was deep in thought, another phone of his started to ring, and this time it was Petra calling.

"My dear, are you coming back?"

"Yes, I’m on my way home, but I need to handle some matters temporarily, so I might be a bit late. Still, I will make it in time for lunch," he replied.

Yang Yi glanced at his watch and gave Petra a reassuring answer, but Petra immediately said, "Alright, um, my parents have decided to come over and join us for lunch. It was a last-minute decision. Do you...
