Chapter 438: Chapter 418 Captain, lose weight.

In France, he stayed at a place with a swimming pool, which is the headquarters of the French External Security Bureau.

But what about when he arrived in London? He stayed in a safehouse.

Gao Yi and his group were invited into a seemingly ordinary two-story semi-detached villa. It was well-located but not spacious, yet this safehouse had a strong sense of domestic life.

There were nine pairs of shoes in the shoe cabinet, seven of them women’s shoes and two men’s leather shoes.

Just by glancing once, Gao Yi knew that there was a female owner in the house, and even sensed that the lady had left in a hurry.

"This is my house, I’m sorry, but I can only ask you to stay here for one night, I assure you it’s absolutely safe!"

Kir’s own house.

In other words, Gao Yi and his companions had moved into Kir’s house.

The head of one of the Five permanent biggest and most prestigious intelligence agencies now can’t offer a safe refuge and has to stay at his own home for security.

Is this hospitality? Is this a demonstration of sincerity?

Bullshit, this is a disgrace, a total humiliation!

The total humiliation of the Military Intelligence Sixth Department!

But Gao Yi has such high emotional intelligence, what could he say? He could only express his gratitude.

The one whose mind is the most active right now is Sith, this could be seen from the uncontrollable smile on his face.

For able to stay in the head of the Military Intelligence Sixth Department’s house, Sith couldn’t be more satisfied, this scenario is like a tale too tall to be believed if mentioned.

Gao Yi didn’t think too much, he just started allocating rooms according to his habits, obviously, he and Lucy took one guest room, and the others, such as Feng Biao Lin Xianghua, of course found their own places to sleep.

Sleep wherever they want, just don’t crowd with Gao Yi.

Luckily, Kir not only has a wife but also two sons who have gone to college, whose bedrooms can be used.

We need to make do for one night, we can’t occupy Kir and his wife’s room.

Feng Biao and Lin Xianghua shared a room, the only problem was that the bed was a bit small.

"You sleep, I’ll sit up for the night."

Feng Biao generously gave Lin Xianghua the bed.

Lin Xianghua didn’t rush to sleep, during a rare moment when they could share a room, he couldn’t help expressing his inner doubts to Feng Biao.

"Brother Biao, do you think... we... are no longer necessary?"

Feng Biao looked at Lin Xianghua, he originally wanted to say some comforting words, but when the words reached his lips, he just sighed lightly, saying: "Hmm, you’ve noticed."

Lin Xianghua whispered: "As assassins, we obviously are not qualified, we are not assassins at all, and even if we are willing to change professions, how can we compare to those professionals, so, the boss no longer needs us."

Feng Biao smiled and said: "Isn’t that good? If we are not needed, then we just leave, you do your thing, I do my thing, just like Li Jie, he is running his own studio in the United States and is doing quite well, remember, we came out to make money, now we already have more money than we can spend, why stick around and cause trouble."

After finishing speaking, Feng Biao sat down himself, he said calmly: "Look, as a sniper, do you think the boss still needs me?"

"The boss probably won’t be going to war again."

"Exactly, but my woman needs me, so I take the money the boss gave, retire happily, and go home to have kids. I marry a Chinese wife, raise two Russian kids, isn’t that cool? Isn’t that good? Earn so much money, if you don’t enjoy it, what are you aiming for?"

After saying that, Feng Biao continued to chuckle: "You have your dreams, I have my pursuits, now it’s that the boss doesn’t need us, the most important thing is, we are not like him, so we take the money and enjoy, this is good for everyone, this is the perfect outcome."

Lin Xianghua thought for a moment, and finally nodded his head.

Feng Biao continued: "Of course, if we are still needed, needless to say, we come back anytime, do whatever needs to be done, fight whomever needs to be fought, isn’t that simple, so what are you worried about."

Lin Xianghua smiled bitterly, nodding his head,readonly: "I really wanted to continue following the bossforever, I feel I can be useful, I always hoped to truly prove my value, but now..."

"Cut out this dangerous idea, proving your value means taking bullets for him, but please, isn’t being safe and sound the best?"

Having said that, Feng Biao spoke with a look full of emotion: "Honestly, the boss has leveled up, moved to a higher plane, we being left behind will just hold him back, so we should go, we need to step up, the boss is righteous, he would never want to drive us away himself in his life, but we do nothing now, and the boss gives us tens of millions, I really feel bad about accepting this money, besides, it’s already more than enough."

Lin Xianghua silently nodded, sighing deeply.

Suddenly, Feng Biao changed the subject, saying: "But if one day we are really needed again, you have to remember to come back, come back even if it costs you your life, otherwise it’s being ungrateful and disloyal, you understand, right?"

"I understand!"

Feng Biao waved his hand and said, "Alright, go to sleep. You don’t need to worry about this matter. I’ll handle it later. Just go to sleep."

Feng Biao and Lin Xianghua were planning to leave, which Gao Yi naturally did not know. He and Lucy were sleeping soundly.

But the situation was different for the four people in the living room.

"It’s surprising that you would think to keep someone in your own home. Has the situation at Military Intelligence Sixth Department really deteriorated to this extent?"

Green sighed helplessly, while Kir Parker looked dejected and said, "There are six deputy directors, four of whom are appointed by the Intelligence Committee. The head of the action office was transferred from Military Intelligence Fifth Department. There are people from the CIA, KGB, and Military Intelligence Fifth Department in our department, and even French insiders. Morale is scattered, and the capable ones only wish to move to Military Intelligence Fifth Department for better career prospects."

The head of the Intelligence Bureau said in a low voice, "Last year our spies at Northeastern University were discovered and sixty-two of them were deported. Military Intelligence Fifth Department had no exposures at all. One of our intelligence lines in Russia that had been operating for over fifty years was completely uprooted."

Collins said indifferently, "My action team consists of one hundred and twenty people, but eighty of them are new recruits, with twenty reaching retirement age. If we want to maintain basic combat effectiveness, we must let these people serve beyond their terms. Previously, we could directly select suitable candidates from SAS or SBS, but now, we no longer have that power."

Kir Parker finally spread his hands and said, "I really don’t know where the last transaction was leaked. I thought the personnel arrangements were flawless. They ought to withstand the test, but you understand intelligence work. It’s relatively easy to keep secrets externally, but too difficult internally. So, this time I’ve limited the insiders to just three. Just the three of us know, and if there’s another leak..."

Everyone fell silent. Kir Parker finally waved his hand, "Then it could only mean the three of us are under surveillance."

Being under surveillance is a euphemism, and it’s one of the nicer ways to put it. What Kir Parker was worried about but did not mention is that there might be a mole among the three of them.

The mole might not necessarily be an external enemy. It’s easier for an internal enemy like Military Intelligence Fifth Department to strike.

Green couldn’t stand it any longer; he spread his hands and said, "Then what are we waiting for here?"

"Wait for dawn. Wait for dawn to find Dani."

Green stood up and said to Kir Parker, "It’s because you’re always a step behind in actions that Military Intelligence Sixth Department has fallen to its current state. What are we waiting for dawn for? Let’s go now!"

Despite Green’s sarcasm, Kir did not get angry because he had no retort to Green’s criticism.

"Alright! Let’s go now!"

Kir also stood up, and then the remaining two followed suit, saying, "Let’s go find him now."

"You stay to protect Hammer God. We can’t just leave without any bodyguards."

Pointing at Collins, Green waved his hand, "The three of us will go find Dani. Let’s think about how to convince him first."

"It’s tricky. I have to clarify that reinstating his position is impossible, restoring his honor is impossible, and getting someone to apologize to him is even more impossible. The only thing I can promise is to let him return to work at Military Intelligence Sixth Department."

Green, growing impatient, said, "Then just fire him directly, letting him sever all ties with Military Intelligence Sixth Department. But tell him this is to give him a chance for revenge, so his assignment is an undercover operation. It’s just not undercover next to Hammer God, but to use Hammer God to help him get revenge."

"Reverse thinking, this idea isn’t bad. I think as long as we’re willing to cooperate, perhaps Dani really might... cough cough, let’s go, I’ll drive."

The plan intended for daylight was changed to early morning, as Green couldn’t wait any longer.

In France, they handled the target Gao Yi wanted dealt with as soon as dawn broke, the matter was crisp and efficient.

In the UK, no, on the side of Military Intelligence Sixth Department, everything was dragging, which was improper.

Since there were few cars in the early hours, the three drove for half an hour, arriving at an upscale apartment building.

Although Dani was under residential surveillance, his house was provided by the British Government, with Military Intelligence Sixth Department covering the rent.

And since he was under surveillance, Dani naturally wouldn’t leave his home easily, and finding him was fairly straightforward.

At 4:40 in the morning, Kir knocked on an apartment door.

There was no response, so Kir knocked harder, persistently knocking for ten minutes until, finally, the door silently opened.

A fat man in a leopard print long robe, which was untied, revealing an open chest and no underwear, appeared before them.

The man was at most 1.7 meters tall, with a very large belly, so large that he didn’t need to blur anything even without underwear.

Kir was taken aback, and Green was shockingly surprised.

The four of them looked at each other, but no one spoke. The fat man at the door, seeing that none of the three outsiders spoke, was about to close the door.

Then, Green finally reached out, pushing against the door, and with a shocked yet puzzled expression, said, "Captain, why have you gotten so fat like this!"

Dani smirked dismissively and then tried to shut the door forcefully again, but Green resisted the door strongly and said, "Lose some weight. I’ve found a chance for revenge for you. Slim down."
