"Just think about it, our mission this time is very covert. In fact, the only person who knows about it is Bing, and you, Sister Vermouth, are also playing an auxiliary support role. The other person who is carrying out this plan is me, but Bing regards this mission as my graduation mission. So if I'm not mistaken, Bing's idea is for me to arrange this mission according to my personal ideas, and he, relying on his understanding of me, will cooperate from the inside. In other words, although the mission this time is not explained, what I did should be what Bing thought." Ling thought for a while and said.

"Then, I was thinking, Bing exposed Rye's identity, and then used Miyano Akemi's relationship to gain Rye's trust. What could he provide to the FBI? It should be intelligence. But even if it is intelligence, it should be intelligence from the base in Japan, right?"

"That's right." Vermouth thought. "Although I know that Bing is unlikely to betray the organization, his approach is very risky. Indeed, if I knew about it, I would never let him use this method and would definitely stop him."

"So, he didn't tell anyone. It wasn't until he walked into the FBI headquarters that we were left to guess on our own." Ling continued. "First of all, I want to say that Bing will never betray the organization. You have to know that he has many ties. You should be very clear about this, Sister Vermouth." Ling looked up at Vermouth. Then she continued. "From the time I came here to the time Bing left for the FBI headquarters, it has been about three days. However, in the past three days, we have not received any relevant information from the organization. This means that Bing's words have caused doubts in the FBI. After all, they cannot fully trust Bing, and this running-in period also gives us time. From the United States to Japan, it takes two days to fly. In addition to the transfer of personnel and greeting the Japanese police, the whole process will not be too fast. If Bing really thinks so, then we only need to arrange for the Japanese base to move now, and the information provided by Bing will not cause any losses to the organization."

"Yes... indeed." Vermouth thought for a moment. "Whether your conclusion is correct or not, I will explain this to the Boss. Moreover, we can also take this opportunity to find out whether there are any FBI lackeys in Japan, which is like killing two birds with one stone."

"Secondly, we will spread the news to the world that we are going to issue a wanted order for Bing." Ling continued. "Bing's name in the outside world is Ice Devil. His code name in the organization is IceWine. In the battle with the FBI, the name IceWine was exposed to the FBI, but the existence of Ice Devil was unknown to the FBI, at least they didn't know that the two were the same person. As long as we issue a high-value wanted order to hunt down IceWine, and then let me take on this mission in the name of Annihilation Angel, and go to meet up with Bing, we can catch the FBI off guard. And this wanted order can also help the FBI trust Bing more, and Bing will not be surrounded by heavy police forces."

"But why forge it? Can't we just issue a wanted notice in the name of the organization?"

"The world only knows about the Ice Demon, but not the Angel of Annihilation. Because Bing always takes on missions in his own name, and I was introduced to the world by him. Now, a person who has never been famous has come forward to take on this mission. The FBI will definitely be alert, but don't forget that in front of this huge organization, all outsiders are not worth mentioning. As long as Sister Vermouth takes a few gold medals to feint outside, they will send police forces to guard against the Angel of Annihilation, but under Bing's internal counterattack, the FBI will probably be beaten to a pulp. Bing believes in my combat ability, and I also believe that he will understand my thoughts. By then, the defense network laid by the FBI will naturally be easily broken by us."

"Are you so sure?" Vermouth smiled faintly.

"Yes." Ling was very sure. "Bing never makes a move without a purpose. Since he took so many weapons and equipment from the organization, it is definitely not to give them to the FBI. The fact that he took away the EMP proves that he is sure to destroy all their electronic equipment after implanting the virus. What I have to do is to trust him 100%, and then cooperate with him to complete this mission! Besides, Bing wants to make the Angel of Annihilation famous in front of the world this time, so how can I lose face for him?"

"Oh, you are such an interesting couple." Vermouth put out his cigarette. "Go ahead, this is a life-and-death test. I will fully support you."

"Yes, thank you, big sister!"

Is Ling's analysis correct? In fact, Ling's guess is basically correct. On the day when she received the call from Vermouth, Ling was afraid that if the next mission failed, she would never see the sun the next day, so she mustered up the courage to tell me all her inner thoughts.

It's true that I can't agree to her, but if I agree now, Ling might have to complete this mission with the determination to die. In this case, if Ling loses her composure, it is very likely to cause irreversible consequences. So, I changed my plan. I originally wanted to take Ling with me to sneak in. Now I plan to infiltrate the FBI alone. And the method is to use Rye.

When Vermouth called me, I knew I could start fishing. So I injected Ling with anesthetics and asked her to go to the United States later than me. At the same time, I called Jingliu and told her to help me calm Ling's emotions and help her dye her hair back to color. This is Ling's battle to become famous, and she can't be allowed to pretend. Some people think that killers should be as low-key as possible, right?
That's right. But in the assassin world and the dark world, the reputation of an assassin is very important. Without a reputation, no one will entrust you with a mission. No one will be afraid of you, and no one will take you seriously. This is why assassins need a code name to disguise themselves. As for the appearance, there are too many ways to have plastic surgery, and the truly powerful assassins will not expose themselves to the public, and they are not afraid of being exposed.

I also arranged what Jingliu said to Ling before she came to the United States, so that Ling could understand my intentions and also to make her firm in her belief to complete this mission.

After I came to the United States, Vermouth and Gin worked together to stage a play for Rye, which exposed Rye's flaws and ultimately caused his arrest plan to fail. The whole plan was actually to let Gin and Rye do a deal alone, and this deal had been arranged at the US base half a year ago, all for Rye to see. After more than half a year of preparation, Rye was successfully fooled. Just when Rye thought he could lead the crowd to capture Gin, the people sent by Gin exposed the whereabouts of an FBI officer, which led to the failure of the entire plan. And I quietly followed Rye when he showed up. Finally, I followed him back to the FBI's hiding place.

Following Rye, also known as Dai Moroboshi, Shuichi Akai came to a unique apartment, which should be their temporary base. In fact, I could have planted bombs here to send Shuichi Akai to the sky, but considering my subsequent tasks and Mingmei's mood, I didn't do so. However, bombs must be laid, at least for prevention, in case this guy Akai is in a bad mood and directly draws a gun on me. I also have a chance to escape. After finishing everything, I dialed the phone number of this house. Every house has a landline, so it is very convenient to check a phone number in the United States.

"Hello, this is Susan." An authentic American female voice came into my ears.

"I'm looking for Zhu Xingda." I replied in English.

"Who are you..." The female voice on the other end suddenly turned cold.

"He's a friend of his. I'm downstairs in your apartment. I came here with goodwill and information." I said calmly. Soon, someone on the second floor of the apartment looked down. On the other end of the phone, Akai's deep but magnetic voice started to ring.

"IceWine?" "You know me?"

"Humph, you worked with Gin and Vermouth to destroy half of the FBI headquarters. How could I not know you?"

"I had no choice. It was not my will." As I spoke, I could already feel dozens of guns stretched out from the apartment and aimed at my head. "I came here with good intentions this time. I hope we can talk, just me." As I spoke, I raised my other hand and waved it at them, indicating that I was not a threat.

Soon, armed FBI agents came downstairs and surrounded me.

"Tsk tsk, I told you not to make such a big fuss." I slowly knelt down, threw the phone aside, and put my hands on my head, waiting for them to pin me to the ground. "Hiss... Be gentle, I don't have any weapons. Oh, I do have a gun with me, it's on my lower back."

Soon, the FBI disarmed me and handcuffed my hands behind my back. Akai Shuichi also came out. He was wearing a thick cashmere sweater, a long coat, long hair, and a knitted hat that covered his head. With his sharp eyeshadow and green eyes, who else could this be but Akai Shuichi?
"IceWine, this is the first time we meet." Akai said solemnly. "You knew I was from the FBI and yet you dared to fall into my trap."

"Hehe, in fact, if you hadn't revealed yourself as an FBI agent, I wouldn't have dared to come to you." I was pinned to the ground and looked up at him. "I say, can you let me get up and talk first? I brought you the information you're interested in."

"...Bring him in." Akai was silent for a while, then spoke.

"Do you want to change places?" said an American agent with a middle-parted hair.

"No need. If he had bad intentions, we would have already exchanged fire by now." Akai glanced at me coldly and said, "Just bring him in."

So, three FBI agents tied me up tightly, and then took me into their temporary base with guns pointed at me.

When we arrived at the room, it turned out to be a suite. The room was filled with smoke. The agents here must be smoking together because of the pressure of mission failure.

"Xiu, who is he?" In the room, a woman with short blond hair and glasses was leaning against the window. Damn, isn't this Judy? I didn't expect that she was also involved in this plan.

"IceWine, Vermouth's most capable assistant." Akai Shuichi said.

"Is it him?" Judy's eyes showed a hint of surprise, followed by anger. "Is this the guy who shot and killed so many of us with a sniper rifle from 800 yards away?"

"If you're not talking about Calvados, then it should be me... Ouch!" Before I could finish my words, Judy had already hit me hard in the abdomen with her knee. The strong impact made me vomit gastric juice. Although she was a woman, her strength was really real. In addition, I didn't deliberately defend myself at the moment, so this was really enough for me to bear. This was not the end. The woman then punched me again and hit me in the face several times.

"That's enough!" Akai stopped Judy. Then he looked at me coldly. "What is your purpose in coming here?"

"Heh... ahem, I told you, I came here with good intentions. I didn't expect the female men from your FBI to be so rude."

"You stinky boy, you're looking for death!" Judy was furious again after hearing this, but was stopped by the agent next to her.

"You definitely didn't come here just to get beaten." Akai's face didn't change at all. "Tell me, what are you doing here?"

"Heh, I want to... use the information I give you in exchange for the FBI's protection of me."

"What..." After hearing what I said, Akai's green eyes suddenly narrowed.
