Chapter 309 Night Owl's Speculation
I can't continue to disturb Su Ming. I just need to help him silently behind the scenes and treat him as my friend, a loyal and permanent friend.
Flora said to herself.
Then, Flora re-thought what Su Ming had just said to her and read some information from it.
Su Ming should know those people who came to inquire about him before.
In the first half of the sentence, Su Ming said, "I see. Can you help me pay a little attention to it?" - This sentence is a very common answer to this kind of question.
But the second half of the sentence, "No need to investigate, just pay a little attention," has a special flavor.
In the second half of the sentence, Flora could hear Su Ming's fear of those people.
At least Su Ming knew that those who were investigating him were relatively dangerous people. If she investigated further, she might be in danger, so Su Ming did not allow her to investigate further.
It seems that those people are Su Ming’s enemies, Flora thought secretly.
She took a deep breath with some annoyance, her proud chest heaving high. She thought to herself that she must help Su Ming deal with these people.
She leaned forward, freeing her back from the sofa, then she put her ten fingers together and rested them on her chin, thinking seriously... She had to think of a way to help Su Ming solve these troubles.
Before long, in just five minutes, Flora already had three plans in mind.
Flora’s first plan was to sit back and wait. Since those people were interested in Su Ming, they would definitely come to the Investigation Bureau to inquire about Su Ming’s news after a period of time.
The next time they came , she would simply have someone arrest them and then interrogate them using an honesty recorder.
Her second plan was to conduct an in-depth investigation into these people, to follow them and see what they were planning.
Of these two plans, the first one is simple, crude, and very effective, but its disadvantage is that it cannot catch all the people who are detrimental to Su Ming. It can only catch some of the people who go to the Investigation Bureau to gather intelligence. However, those who serve as scouts are not necessarily the core members who pose a threat to Su Ming. They may just be miscellaneous soldiers or abandoned pawns, and valuable information may not be obtained from them.
Therefore, if the first plan was adopted, it would most likely alert the enemy and make them aware of the Bureau's hostility, thus hiding their true identity and no longer giving her the opportunity to investigate them in depth.
The second plan is more gentle and will not alert the enemy, but the selection of personnel to track is a problem.
If the enemy has powerful anti-reconnaissance skills, overly clumsy tracking will surely be exposed. In this case, the person who goes to track may be in danger of his life, and it will also alert the enemy.
In addition to plans one and two, Flora also has a third plan, which is a very radical plan.
That is the inducement plan. Once successful, the other party can be caught in one fell swoop.
But if it fails, our side may suffer casualties.
So...which one to choose?
This is a problem.
Flora hesitated for a long time, and finally decided to implement the most radical plan.
The specific steps of the inducement plan are to first release the information that Su Ming is about to return to those who are trying to find out about Su Ming.
Then we can ambush Su Ming at his place of residence, and maybe we can catch those people in one fell swoop.
But several problems arise from this. What if the other party learns that Su Ming is about to return but does not intend to take action?
Flora stroked her chin and thought for a moment, then decided to add one more piece of information to the release - Su Ming was seriously injured, and after initial treatment, he returned to Dongyang Island for recuperation.
As long as this information is added to the intelligence released, the other party will think that Su Ming has lost his combat effectiveness. If they want to harm Su Ming, attacking him when he gets off the dock is undoubtedly the best option.
Because if they didn't take action at that time, Su Ming would be transferred to Investigation Bureau 7 for recuperation, and would not go out on missions in the short term. Investigation Bureau 7 has heavy internal security and strong combat effectiveness. It would not be easy for anyone to break in. As long as the other party is not too stupid, they will definitely take this into consideration and decide to take action immediately to attack Su Ming!
Of course, in addition to this, there is another problem that comes with it, and that is time.
She couldn't give those people too much time, otherwise they would think carefully and make a safe and thorough plan. Then, it would be difficult for her to carry out subsequent actions.
So she had to make the other party make a hasty decision without having time to make a careful plan.
Therefore, the shorter the time you give the other party to think, the better.
"Then... let's set it for tomorrow." Flora said to herself. While she was thinking, her hair had been blown dry without her noticing.
…
It has been some time since the Night Owl Killing Group arrived at Dongyang Island.
Their original goal was to kill Su Ming as quickly as possible, but their luck was bad and they came up empty-handed. When they arrived here, it seemed that Su Ming had left the island to do a mission somewhere else.
When hearing the news, Ye Xiao felt a headache.
Because since Su Ming was able to leave the forbidden island of Dongyang Island, it means that Su Ming is a free man in this world, and his range of activities has become infinitely wide.
Originally, when he heard that Su Ming was on a forbidden island, he thought that God was helping them.
Because as long as Su Ming is trapped in a certain range, this range can play an auxiliary role whether attacking Su Ming or escaping from Su Ming. If they can kill Su Ming, the rules of the Forbidden Island will leave Su Ming nowhere to escape.
And if they fail to kill Su Ming, the rules of the Forbidden Island will prevent Su Ming from leaving the island to pursue them.
But now this advantage is gone. Once Su Ming is able to move freely, his strength will increase rapidly in a short period of time. If he cannot be killed in a short period of time, then after Su Ming becomes stronger, people like them will definitely have no chance.
"Chief, what should we do?" Alans asked.
Night Owl frowned, looked at the other person, pursed his lips and said nothing.
He had no idea what to do. Su Ming was on a business trip, which would take a few weeks or even months. They couldn't follow him around the world, and the Investigation Bureau refused to reveal any news about Su Ming, so they couldn't catch up with him. The only thing they could do now was to wait.
However, if they wait for Su Ming to hang out outside for a few months, who knows how strong he might become when he comes back. Do they really have a chance of winning by then?
It’s tricky...really tricky...why not just give up on killing Su Ming directly and let everyone focus on finding the mysterious eye.
Just as Ye Xiao was thinking, suddenly, his cell phone rang.
"Boss, we got the information. Su Ming will be back from the dock of Furnace Island tomorrow. According to the Investigation Bureau, he seems to have been injured during the mission!" said the person on the other end of the phone.
Ye Xiao's eyes lit up. This was exciting news. Su Ming came back so soon, and he was injured. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
Wait... things are not that simple. We must treat this with caution. Night Owl's eyes became extremely serious.
Even though Su Ming was injured, he had to treat this assassination operation with caution and care. In addition, the accuracy of the intelligence had to be confirmed repeatedly.
For example, is there a possibility that the Investigation Bureau thinks these people are very suspicious because they have been questioning them too frequently in recent days, so they set a trap and want them to fall into it voluntarily?
Night Owl stroked his chin and fell into deep thought.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that the plan was going too smoothly.
First of all, he would send someone to the Investigation Bureau to inquire about Su Ming's return date almost every three or four days. The previous times, the Investigation Bureau's reply was that they didn't know. But today, the Investigation Bureau suddenly found out, and the arrival date was very tight, which was tomorrow, and Su Ming was also injured.
It must have taken Su Ming a long time to fly that kind of airship from the time he was injured to the time he returned to Dongyang Island. Since he was injured, there must be someone taking care of him. As long as that person is not stupid, he should have reported the itinerary to the Investigation Bureau when he got on the airship, instead of reporting it only when he was about to arrive on the island tomorrow. Such preparations were obviously too hasty.
So he had reason to believe that the reason why the other party said that Su Ming would arrive tomorrow was to make him lose his ability to distinguish and anxiously begin to arrange an assassination plan against Su Ming. After all, most people are like this. When they know that a great opportunity is right in front of them and is about to be missed, they will no longer think about whether this opportunity is a trap, but try their best to grab it quickly.
The tight time and the injured Su Ming sound like a fatal temptation.
Just look at how excited the guys around him are. Night Owl glanced to the side and saw Alans and the others, all of them were excited and anxious... They had all lost the most basic ability to think.
Perhaps I should think about the upcoming assassination on the basis that "this is a trap set by the Investigation Bureau."
"Chief! It's time for us to take action!" Alans said excitedly.
"It's possible that this is a scam by the Investigation Bureau. We have to think about it. If we were the Investigation Bureau, what kind of arrangements should we make afterwards to deceive people like us?" asked Night Owl.
Night Owl has a rough idea of the strength of the Investigation Bureau. As a qualified plane-raiding group, every time they arrive at a new plane, the first thing they have to do is to take the time to measure the power system of this world in order to determine their own strength level in the current plane.
This time, the killing group did the same thing. Night Owl asked Lu Xinyuan to set up a new killer organization [Night Owl] on the Internet, starting from taking orders for killing people to estimate the strength of the indigenous people of this world.
They started out as being hired for tens of thousands to kill a low-level psychic, and ended up being hired for hundreds of thousands to kill slightly stronger psychics.
So far, the largest order they have received was to kill an S-level mutant, and the other party spent five million.
The result was that they easily killed the S-level psychic.
