Chapter 929: Chapter 934 King of Spies

Yang Yi spoke with confidence, but Xiao Ran countered incredulously, "You’ve gone mad, you want to be a double agent, no, you want to be a quadruple agent!"

Yang Yi shrugged his shoulders and then smiled, "If I succeed, please call me the ’King of Spies’."

Kate grabbed Yang Yi’s collar in a frenzy and screamed, "You’ll be dead before that!"

Brian spread his hands and muttered softly, "This is madness, true madness. Hey, does anyone plan to snap him out of it?"

Yang Yi took hold of Kate’s hand and gently removed it from his collar, smiling, "Why do you all think this plan won’t work?"

Brian gave a wry smile and said, "Please, do you think the people at the CIA are idiots? Or MI5 and MI6? Maybe the Grey-cloaked People are idiots, or perhaps the janitors are thick as planks? Little Egg, the people you plan to toy with are all very smart; you’re essentially committing suicide."

Yang Yi still appeared relaxed, "But I don’t think so. Chris taught me something, ’If you want to deceive someone, treat them like an idiot.’"

Zhang Yong gave a bitter smile and said, "Yeah, but Chris had another line, ’If you fail, just walk away and find another idiot to deceive.’ But your targets, they won’t give you the chance to just walk away."

Yang Yi shook his head, "No, as long as your acting is good, you can deceive anyone. Guess what I’m going to do? That’s right, I’m going to be a double agent in plain sight. I’ll admit I’m a spy for the CIA; acknowledge I work for MI5. I’ll tell the Grey-cloaked People I am a client and collaborator of the janitors. Trust me, once I have these identities, the Grey-cloaked People won’t kill me; they’ll try to win me over!"

Xiao Ran retorted angrily, "Where did you get this confidence? If I were a Grey-cloaked Person, I’d kill you first! Right away, without giving you a chance to speak, no, not even a chance to turn around! And it’s not just the Grey-cloaked People who would kill you, the janitors would get to you first! You want to be a double agent? Do you even have that opportunity?"

Yang Yi replied to Xiao Ran with a wry smile, "I just said I want to break free from the janitors’ control, and yes, I do not want the janitors to control me or the Organization of Water. But the janitors’ biggest enemy is the Grey-cloaked People, so I don’t have to be a vassal to the janitors, but I can be a collaborator, one that moves up several levels, understand? Everything depends on power. If I’m powerful enough, if there’s a chance I can infiltrate the Grey-cloaked People, the janitors will definitely help me, even offer their full support, no matter the sacrifice. But as long as there’s a chance I can infiltrate the Grey-cloaked People, the janitors will pay any price."

Xiao Ran looked at him in disbelief and said, "You expect the janitors to work with you? Impossible, no, I admit there’s a slight possibility, but where’s your confidence that you can infiltrate the Grey-cloaked People? Just because you show up at the CIA and claim to be one of them? Just because you’re a collaborator of the janitors? Fuck! Fucking hell! You’re just insane!"

Xiao Ran had lost her composure in anger, but Yang Yi just shrugged and cheerfully replied in Mandarin, "Really? I’d welcome that."

Xiao Ran was taken aback, then clenched her fist and suddenly lunged at Yang Yi, swinging a punch towards him.

Yang Yi suddenly grabbed Xiao Ran’s wrist and then he urged in a loud voice, "Hey, don’t be so impulsive, calm down, calm down, we’re talking business here!"

Xiao Ran violently shook off Yang Yi’s hand, fuming, "Get lost! You disgust me... Beat it!"

Yang Yi pressed down his hands and continued in English, "All right, all right, let’s stay calm, we’re discussing serious matters."

Kate said coldly, "You must be out of your mind, I can’t think of a reason for you to stay alive."

Yang Yi let out a sigh and said, "Think about it, think hard. Well, my plan can’t be accomplished in the short term, but once I control the world’s second-largest arms smuggling route, that will be the strength that is out in the open. With a dozen companies like Aigertoni that Steve manages for me becoming public, I will then have an extremely ample financial backing. And isn’t our main business intelligence, huh? Plus, I’m already a double agent between the CIA and MI5, and with the Cleaner’s involvement, that makes me a triple agent. For such a talented person like me, would the Grey-cloaked People rather kill me than try to win me over?"

Yang Yi said earnestly, "Trust me, the Grey-cloaked People won’t kill me, at least not right away; they’ll definitely look for an opportunity to control me. The precondition is that my acting has to be convincing, has to be good, and with the Cleaner’s cooperation, I am sure to be safe."

Finally, Annastasia spoke up. She said slowly, "Let me ask you a question, Ben, what’s your ideal?"

Without any hesitation, Yang Yi replied, "To destroy the Grey-cloaked People! That’s my only dream, my ultimate goal."

Annastasia let out a sigh and said, "So you’re actually prepared for failure, right?"

Yang Yi was silent.

Anna continued calmly, "What you just said does have a chance of success, but we must acknowledge the chance isn’t very high. In my view, having even a fifty percent chance to succeed would be pretty good. So, you’re prepared for failure, meaning you’re ready to die, right?"

Yang Yi took a long breath, turned slightly, and didn’t dare to look into Kate and Xiao Ran’s eyes. He said grimly, "So far, we’ve touched the outskirts of the Grey-cloaked People a few times, but that’s just the outskirts. Why are the Grey-cloaked People terrifying, why have they managed to exist until now? It’s not because of how many people they have, how much money, or their combat ability, but because the Grey-cloaked People are mysterious enough that many countries know of their existence yet can’t truly strike at them."

He heaved another sigh and continued, "If I can infiltrate the Grey-cloaked People, learn their organizational structure, the way they operate, and optimistically, get the names of their members, then the Grey-cloaked People will no longer be a threat. It’s difficult, but I must take the risk. I must seize this opportunity to make a bold move. Moreover, I have to do it now, because if our current plan succeeds, I will become a big shot in the underworld that no one can ignore."

Yang Yi spread his hands, a helpless expression on his face, "After I become a big shot, there will be no reason to join the Grey-cloaked People. But when I am facing many difficulties that must be overcome, I am just a young man with the potential to become a big shot, a young man full of ambition willing to pay any price for his grand achievement. Then such a person like me has a reason to join the Grey-cloaked People, can be accepted and trusted by them.

Therefore, I must contact the Grey-cloaked People before I succeed, become qualified to join them, and once I truly get into the organization, rise to a relatively high position due to my strength. This is my only chance to destroy the Grey-cloaked People. Of course, I know it’s difficult and dangerous, even slim chances, but to achieve my only goal, I am willing to pay any price to seize this seemingly slim chance."
