Chapter 941: Chapter 946: A Sentence Summary

Actually, Yang Yi’s desire for control wasn’t that strong. It’s true that he had a motive for rescuing Justin, but the idea of risking his life to save a stranger, someone with no connection whatsoever, was of course completely impossible.

After all, Justin was useful to Yang Yi, worth the risk for him to embark on a rescue mission. However, Justin also had his own plans and a fallback to recover all he had lost, so Yang Yi naturally wouldn’t insist on Justin joining the Organization of Water.

Yang Yi understood the saying "a twisted melon never tastes sweet." It was one thing for Justin to join the Organization of Water because he had no other choice, but forcing him would simply turn Justin into an enemy.

Besides, the Organization of Water was about to embark on a major operation. Under no circumstances could they afford the time to help Justin seek revenge and deal with the Cicero Family. Such a task couldn’t be accomplished overnight; it wasn’t just a matter of whether the Organization of Water had the capability, but they simply didn’t have the time.

As for Justin’s backup being Gong Yang, this was indeed completely beyond Yang Yi’s expectations.

In Yang Yi’s view, mercenaries were just about fighting and killing. To call them cannon fodder wasn’t wrong at all. Although the Satan Mercenary Group had Black Devil, a helper powerful to the extreme, a mercenary was still a mercenary, cannon fodder was still cannon fodder. If Satan were a mere Mercenary Group, Justin would never have placed his hopes on Gong Yang.

So, Satan wasn’t as simple as it appeared, and Gong Yang’s identity was definitely not as simple as that of just a mercenary. The answer was on the brink of emergence; Gong Yang had hidden strength, and it was very powerful.

Yang Yi had once thought Gong Yang’s backer was Big Ivan, but now it seemed far from just that. Otherwise, Justin would have put his hopes on Big Ivan instead of Gong Yang.

Now, this was getting interesting. Leading a Mercenary Group that could be described as powerful, and one that possessed Black Devil, with a leader who was a deity-like figure in combat, Gong Yang, who could make someone despair in direct confrontation – what exactly was his background?

Most crucially, Justin actually thought Gong Yang was someone worth relying on. Even if he had lost everything, Gong Yang wouldn’t go back on his word and would still help him with all his might. What did that tell you?

It indicated that Gong Yang was a person worth making friends with!

It was so rare in the underworld to encounter someone like Gong Yang. Even the intelligence brokers, who should trust no one, held him in such high regard, suggesting that Gong Yang was either very good at pretending, or he was genuinely a good person.

A good person was not a compliment in the underworld.

But after carefully recalling the few interactions he had with Gong Yang, Yang Yi felt that Gong Yang might truly be a good person, one with compassion...

When Brian had been driven to despair by Yarebin, and Gong Yang stepped in to reveal the truth to Brian, Yang Yi felt that Gong Yang was either scheming something or he genuinely sympathized with Brian. He had always been reluctant to believe the latter.

But now, it seemed likely that Gong Yang was indeed motivated by sympathy.

Justin also said that Gong Yang was loyal and didn’t expect anything in return.

How could Yang Yi believe this? Could such a person exist in the underworld? Such a person should have been dead long ago, picked clean to the bone, so how had Gong Yang managed to survive to this point and achieve his status?

An anomaly, definitely an anomaly, but suddenly, Yang Yi thought that having Gong Yang as a friend was actually something to be envied.

Towards Gong Yang and the Satan Mercenary Group, Yang Yi had always maintained a respectful distance, but now, he wondered if maybe it was time to make contact with Gong Yang?

Yang Yi fell into deep thought.

"What are you thinking about? Are you wondering how I can repay your favor? If you have any conditions, you can tell me now. As long as I can do it, I will definitely repay you."

Watching as Yang Yi was lost in thought, Justin finally spoke up, expressing what most people would normally think.

Yang Yi shrugged and shook his head, "I’m not thinking about your situation; I’m thinking about Gong Yang."

"Hmm?"

"I’m wondering what kind of person Gong Yang really is."

After pondering for a moment, Justin said in a serious tone, "In one sentence, it can be perfectly summarized: he is the worst enemy and the best friend."

Indeed, it could be summarized in one sentence.

Yang Yi understood and laughed, "It seems I should become Gong Yang’s friend rather than his enemy."

Justin said very seriously, "You saved me, and we’ve always had a good relationship, so I say this very seriously, even if you can’t become friends with Gong Yang, never become his enemy."

After saying this, Justin relaxed and then smilingly said, "I’ll find a chance to introduce you two."

Yang Yi nodded, but after a moment of thought, he sighed, "No, let’s not for now. I have something to do and it’s not convenient at the moment. Also, don’t just refrain from introducing me to Gong Yang, but also don’t mention that we were the ones who saved you."

Justin was surprised, "Why?"

Why? Because Yang Yi was about to embark on a major plan of his own, and he planned to expose himself to the CIA’s radar. Since Gong Yang and Big Ivan were on the same side, they would inevitably be hostile to the CIA, possibly even mortal enemies.

Gong Yang’s identity was too complex, and the situation Yang Yi was about to face was dangerous, to say the least. If he were to be associated with Gong Yang, it might become impossible to gain the trust he should have from the CIA.

Yang Yi certainly wouldn’t blab, but who knew if Gong Yang’s network might leak his involvement, or if the CIA had an undercover agent with Satan or Big Ivan. Regardless of the situation, if the CIA found out about any connection between Yang Yi and Gong Yang, the consequences could be dire.

Some matters must be guarded against.

Yang Yi looked at Justin and said very seriously, "Out of consideration for having saved you, no matter how you explain it to Gong Yang, never bring us into it. I have no intention of being an enemy of Gong Yang, but I have some things to take care of and can’t get involved with anyone else. I hope you understand."

After thinking it over, Justin nodded, "I understand. Since this is your request, rest assured, I will definitely not speak of it. If someone in the information business can’t understand even this, then I’d truly deserve to die."

Yang Yi smiled and then said gravely, "Now I can tell you where we’re going. We’re flying to Iceland, and once we get to Iceland, we’ll figure out how to get somewhere else. Where do you need to go? I can help you get there."

Justin frowned, "Iceland? The place where not even birds will shit, hmm, where should I go now..."

After a long thought, Justin said with a wry smile, "Thinking it over, Iceland turns out to be the most suitable place for me to hide. It’s so remote that the Cicero Family has no interest in it. Alright then, I’ll stay in Iceland. But, buddy, if I’m staying there, could you lend me some money? I’ll pay you back together later..."
