Chapter 437: Chapter 417: Match
Gao Yi was not aware of Sith’s capabilities.
However, Gao Yi trusted that the person Marina provided was absolutely capable, so he didn’t mind throwing ten million dollars at them.
Meeting directly with ten million dollars, simple and brutal, the rest is up to Sith to figure out.
Paris is very close to London, the flight won’t take long, and the short flight time means that Sith has very little time to react.
Sith is no stranger to the ways of the world; during critical life-or-death moments, his decision-making is done in an instant.
But this time is different.
Gao Yi only gave money, but he didn’t specify what he wanted Sith to do, it’s this attitude of not asking for anything in return that plunged Sith into deep indecision.
The plane landed, and in the instant the wheels touched the ground, the unsettled Sith finally made his final decision.
First, check if there really are ten million dollars in the account; if so, just take one step at a time.
The plane landed at London City Airport, the smallest airport in London but also the easiest to control and therefore the safest.
The plane taxied and stopped at the end of the runway, beside the runway were three cars.
The Military Intelligence Sixth Department personnel were waiting to receive them.
Gao Yi was the second person to disembark from the plane, and then, he saw two familiar faces.
One was the director of Military Intelligence Sixth Department, Kir Parker, and the other was Collins, captain of the action team with whom he had dealings before.
How awkward.
The last time they met, Gao Yi had Kir Parker and the Minister of Intelligence as hostages under Collins’s watchful eyes.
And now, they meet again.
Gao Yi descended from the plane, Green moved from behind to the front, and then stood between the two parties.
"This is Kir Parker, the director of British Secret Intelligence Service."
Military Intelligence Sixth Department is colloquially known as British Secret Intelligence Service; thus, the head of Military Intelligence Sixth Department holds the title of Director.
Gao Yi was unsure whether to extend his hand, but Kir Parker took the initiative and said in a stern tone, "Hello, nice to see you again."
"This is the captain of the Special Action Team of British Secret Intelligence Service, Collins."
Gao Yi nodded to Collins.
Kir Parker is among the few prominent figures in the global intelligence community, but he was very polite at this moment.
"The cars have been prepared for you. Please get in."
At this point, Gao Yi suddenly realized that there were only three cars, and only three drivers.
Gao Yi’s party totaled seven people, and they needed to split into at least two cars. Hence, Military Intelligence Sixth Department sent only three cars, but the director personally came to receive them, even bringing the captain of the action team.
Why is the confidentiality of Military Intelligence Sixth Department so poor?
It’s one thing for the director to personally welcome them, but to ensure safety, he didn’t dare bring any more subordinates.
It seems a bit melancholy.
Gao Yi had prepared his gift, merely a USB stick containing metallic hydrogen data. Since the transaction was not completed with the two female agents last time, it was just right to give it directly to the head of Military Intelligence Sixth Department this time.
Gao Yi took out the USB stick and presented it with both hands: "Just a small gift, please accept it as a token of respect."
Only twenty-four million, considering the director personally came to receive and also acted as a driver, forget about it!
Kir Parker took the USB stick, overwhelmed with emotions.
If only he had known that Iron Fist George had gotten hold of such an interesting item, he wouldn’t have allowed him to defect and turned a blind eye.
"Thank you, please get in the car; you can drive yourselves."
That’s all there was to it. Military Intelligence Sixth Department provided the cars, and Gao Yi’s group could drive themselves and follow, but they wouldn’t talk much in the car.
Meanwhile, Green went into Kir’s car, and beside him were Collins, the captain of the action team, and another driver with quite a background, at least one of Kir’s trusted aides, absolutely sure he would not disclose any secrets.
Four top figures of Military Intelligence Sixth Department squeezed into one car to lead the way for the welcoming party, rather bleak.
As the car took off, Collins suddenly asked, "Is that person beside him the guillotine?"
Green took a deep breath, then spoke softly, "Yes, guillotine. Just now on the plane, Hammer God directly gave guillotine ten million dollars."
Kir lightly said, "That much money for doing what?"
"Nothing at all, just handed it over casually."
"Uh..."
Kir felt his face grow slightly hot, his heart tightened.
"Ssss...huuuh..."
Taking a deep breath, turning his head slowly and exhaling, Kir couldn’t help but look out of the car window, though he couldn’t see the cars following behind.
"Just handed over ten million dollars on meeting?"
Gao Yi may hold a high and powerful position, but that doesn’t mean he’s wealthy.
Green nodded, his voice low, "Yes! Guillotine demands an annual salary of 360,000, Hammer God offered ten million directly, and then per action afterwards."
Kir appeared helpless, Collins spoke softly, "This makes it difficult, but if Hammer God is so generous, perhaps it’s good news for us."
Kir remained silent, Green whispered: "How do we follow? Have you figured out how to match Guillotine?"
"What’s the situation in France, why would they give Guillotine to Hammer God?"
"Because Marina is his lover! Do I even need to say it!"
Green spoke discontentedly, "So, you guys haven’t thought of a suitable candidate yet?"
Kir spoke with a hint of helplessness, "Aren’t you aware of the situation in the Military Intelligence Sixth Department? Do you still need to ask me? The most suitable candidates are right here, Collins is the action team captain, and Rango is the head of the Intelligence Bureau, who among these two should act as a bodyguard to an Intelligence Broker? Where is our dignity, does the face of the Great Britain still matter to us?"
Green helplessly said, "Little George?"
"Moved to the Military Intelligence Fifth Department."
"Sigh..."
Green was somewhat outdated in his understanding of the Military Intelligence Sixth Department, thinking that the only suitable candidate had been transferred to the rival’s side.
"Not even one suitable newcomer? Has our talent reserve deteriorated to this extent? There are thousands of people in the Military Intelligence Sixth Department..."
"There are many people, but none reliable and suitable. It was Hammer God last time who made me lose face in front of the Prime Minister’s Envoy and Minister of Intelligence, worsening our situation, cutting our fund by a full third. Now we can only maintain the most basic operations, some of the very promising newcomers have been transferred to the Military Intelligence Fifth Department."
Kir complained because Gao Yi really put him in a terrible position last time, really terrible.
Green whispered, "Whatever we lost because of Hammer God, let’s get it back from him. Think quickly, who else do we have that can match the level of Guillotine?"
The always silent head of the Intelligence Bureau suddenly said, "There really are no suitable current hands or newcomers, but there’s an old one."
Kir, without hesitation, asked, "Who?"
"How about Aiden?"
Green immediately replied, "He’s older than me, and he has diabetes, right?"
"What about Dani?"
Green paused slightly and spoke, "Dani?"
Collins softly said, "Captain?"
"Yes, the action team captain from the Counterintelligence Department, Dani, he’s been under house arrest for five years now, perfectly deployable."
Green fell into a deep thought, Kir uncertainly said, "We’re not sure if he’d be willing, the key thing is he was never our man."
"But he doesn’t belong to anyone else either, Dani doesn’t belong to any faction, isn’t that good?"
"Worried he might leak secrets."
The head of Intelligence Bureau calmly stated, "If Hammer God is offering him ten million, then clearly, he won’t likely leak secrets, I think he’d be quite willing to accept his new identity, at least it’s better than being monitored at his own home."
Green in a low voice, "This guy... can’t be controlled."
"Why control him? As long as we know he won’t harm the interests of the UK, and won’t sell out Hammer God whom he needs to get closer to, isn’t that enough?"
Kir lifted his head and said, "At least we can be sure that Dani has no connection with Freedom Wind."
The ultra-secret code name ’Freedom Wind’ began to spread from Gao Yi.
If not for Green being constantly with Gao Yi, the Military Intelligence Sixth Department wouldn’t even know the name Freedom Wind.
Green fell into deep thought again, and after a long while, he spoke in a low voice: "Reputation-wise, he can match Guillotine, even better, no need to mention capability, Captain Britain is certainly no less than Guillotine, the only thing to consider is his loyalty."
"His emotional detachment training has been very successful, it at least ensures that he won’t cause any danger to the UK."
The head of Intelligence Bureau emphasized again, then in a deep voice: "I think loyalty is not the issue here."
Green indifferently stated, "I’m talking about loyalty to the Military Intelligence Sixth Department."
The head of the Intelligence Bureau remained silent; Kir helplessly said, "This, I feel, is hard to say, Dani has grievances, no, hatred towards the Military Intelligence Sixth Department."
After finishing, Kir finally shook his head, "Forget it, forget it, let’s think of another suitable candidate."
Green suddenly said, "No problem!"
Kir in surprise said, "You said it, loyalty to the Military Intelligence Sixth Department is most crucial."
Green spoke seriously, "I understand Hammer God, as long as we show him enough sincerity, he will surely give a greater return, it doesn’t matter that Dani holds grievances against the Military Intelligence Sixth Department, as long as he is the one we send to protect Hammer God, we can in turn let Hammer God influence Dani."
Kir in astonishment said, "Is that even possible? Um, it’s not impossible, we can’t control Hammer God through Dani."
"Don’t think about controlling Hammer God, just enough goodwill is necessary, let him feel indebted to us, Hammer God knowing that Dani was sent by us is enough, so Dani’s own attitude isn’t very important, at least, we can establish a stable relationship."
Having said that, Green then excitedly said, "If Hammer God knows Dani not only isn’t controlled by the Military Intelligence Sixth Department but also holds grievances against it, then he will deem Dani as our specifically chosen person, the perfect candidate!"
Kir nodded, saying, "That leaves the last issue, convincing Dani."
Green excitedly said, "Guillotine from France, Captain Britain, very good, excellent, at least reputation-wise we won’t lose, now just hoping that Dani still retains his former strength."
