Chapter 707: Chapter 713 Valuable Merchandise

"Anton got it done so quickly?"

"Yes, they’re coming back."

Zhang Yong said with a look of admiration, "Impressive, a true master is a master indeed, you just have to respect it."

Xiao Ran suddenly asked, "How many did you kill? Did you take out the scumbag that hit Woody’s kid?"

"Don’t know, Anton didn’t say."

Xiao Ran said, "Why not make sure of it?"

"It’s a minor issue. I actually think it’s better if he didn’t kill the guy. If Anton did kill him, then let Woody find an opportunity to do it himself in the future. We can’t possibly do everything for him."

"That’s true, leave some things for Woody to handle himself, let him have some satisfaction too. Alright, let’s continue playing."

Zhang Yong’s luck began to turn, and he picked up the cards and loudly said, "No one’s allowed to leave before I break even."

Just then, Yang Yi’s phone rang again. He glanced at the caller ID and after answering the call, he heard McDonald say, "I’m back, at our base."

"I’ll come to see you, wait for me."

Yang Yi stood up and said, "You guys keep playing, I have something to take care of and need to step out for a bit, Rod is coming with me."

The security in Kiev wasn’t very good at the moment. Although Yang Yi wasn’t the type to be afraid of encountering trouble, it was definitely more convenient to have someone with him.

The two of them drove away from their residence, heading to their own base, where now only Tuya Rio was living.

Ever since Zhang Yong broke Tuya’s two arms, Tuya’s life had ironically improved. Now someone fed him his meals, which led to him putting on quite a bit of weight over these days.

Tuya was sitting alone watching TV, grinning foolishly. As soon as he noticed Yang Yi and his company enter the house, he quickly stood up and said, "Boss, you’re here."

Yang Yi wasn’t particularly concerned with Tuya, so after getting Tuya’s arms fixed and hiring two caregivers for him, he had left him here to recover. He hardly remembered Tuya existed.

Looking at Tuya who had clearly gained a lot of weight, Yang Yi frowned and said, "How did you get so fat."

Tuya said with an embarrassed face, "I can’t exercise now, but as soon as I can, I’ll lose the weight quickly."

Yang Yi waved it off and said, "Forget it, focus on your recovery first, sit down. I’m going to find Mr. Quinn."

McDonald still maintained his gentlemanly demeanor, sitting in a rocking chair and reading a book, a specialized text on electronic circuits.

Upon seeing Yang Yi enter, McDonald didn’t get up from the recliner but instead placed the book upon his belly, smiling and saying, "You’ve come so soon."

Once Yang Yi found a chair to sit down, he smiled and said, "Where have you been these many days? Justin said you would bring me news of Mark Schappo."

McDonald chuckled lightly and said, "Went to the eastern part of Ukraine. Justin wants to kill Mark Schappo, but Mark Schappo is a very cautious man, and Justin’s people really have limited abilities."

"Why run to eastern Ukraine? It’s very dangerous there now."

"Because Mark Schappo is the head of the Ministry of Defense’s intelligence department, his main task now is to combat Russian spies operating in eastern Ukraine and to gather intelligence on the Ukrainian eastern rebels, so he definitely needs to go there."

"Tell me about Mark Schappo. Justin has asked us to help him take care of this guy, and to frame it on the KGB. I still have no idea how."

McDonald, with a look of disdain said, "Justin is too cautious. To kill Mark Schappo, you don’t necessarily need to bomb him to death, any method that can do the job would suffice. Justin hopes to kill Mark without direct contact, simply because his people can’t kill Mark Schappo any other way. After all, Mark Schappo is a chief of intelligence, and he always has enough manpower around him to ensure his safety."

"This involves internal strife within the Cicero Family. I don’t know why Justin wants revenge but doesn’t dare to reveal his identity."

"It’s simple, Justin is an intelligence broker. He can’t kill the head of a national intelligence department because that’s a challenge to national power. Ukraine might not be able to influence Justin, but no country likes such a person. It’s detrimental to his future intelligence business. Moreover, Justin can’t make Cicero Family’s internal strife public, so he can’t reveal why he wants to take revenge on Mark Schappo. He has to kill Mark Schappo without letting the intelligence community know it’s him, so he has to act in the shadows."

Yang Yi had a moment of realization and said, "That’s right, it’s actually very simple."

"Yes, indeed it’s very simple."

"Then what should we do? Do you have any suggestions?"

McDonald thought earnestly for a moment and then said gravely, "It really doesn’t matter by what method we kill Mark Schappo. It’s just that Justin really doesn’t have the manpower to accomplish this now. The people he sent I’ve encountered; they can gather intelligence okay, but they’re simply not up to assassination tasks. For us, however, killing Mark Schappo is not very difficult—it’s just a matter of capability."

Yang Yi laughed and said, "Justin lacks firepower, so we are now highly sought after, pity I didn’t ask him for a higher price."

McDonald said indifferently, "Intelligence gathering combined with the ability to assassinate has always been a scarce resource, a super scarce resource. And now, the Organization of Water has both abilities and is very powerful, so of course you can ask for a higher price in the future when you take on tasks."

Yang Yi nodded and said, "Our main targets now are Big Ivan and Black Devil. They’re definitely very formidable, and I need overwhelming firepower that manpower alone can’t withstand. Although Jethro agreed to help, deploying artillery is too much of a hassle, and while tanks can be found, it’s also too difficult to navigate them around downtown Kyiv. I want to know if you can be of help."

"For heavy firepower within visual range, all I can think of is rocket launchers. Thermobaric shells are the best choice if the enemy is indoors. If the enemy is outside, the power of rocket shells may be lesser, but they’re still the best option, albeit needing to be stocked in large quantities. If you want to use bombs, then unless you can set the battlefield beforehand. As for using suicide truck bombs, count me out. I despise any form of suicide bombing approach—it lacks any skill."

"Alright, I understand your thoughts, Mr. Quinn. Our main goal is to kill Big Ivan, but if there is a suitable opportunity, we might also take out Mark Schappo at any time, so please be ready to move out at a moment’s notice."

McDonald nodded and then pointed to the table, saying, "Mark Schappo’s photo is on the table."

Yang Yi picked up the photo to look and then suddenly said, "What do you think about Tuya Rio?"

McDonald contemplated for a moment and then said solemnly, "Tuya Rio is not as foolish as he looks. His appearance can be deceiving. In fact, he is very smart. That’s my only comment on him for now."
