Soul Patch

Chapter 282 Encountered Some Trouble

The man picked up a pen and crossed out one of the fluorescent lines on a black dot.

This mission involves three routes.

A total of ten assassins were dispatched.

He stared at the map for a moment, pondered for a while, and then quickly left the room.

He quickly went to the next room and swiped his room card to open the door.

This is a room with the exact same layout as his room.

The lights were also not turned on.

Looking at the man gazing absently at the street scene by the window, he said hurriedly:

"John, we've run into some trouble."

John slowly turned around, looking at him in surprise, his azure eyes hidden in the dimness of the room.

He paused slightly, then looked at John from ten years ago and fell silent.

Ten years ago, John was sent by the organization to lead the operation, and it was the first time he had been in charge of such an important multinational operation.

If this succeeds, John will rise to prominence within the organization and become a core leader.

Unfortunately, it failed at the time.

John was also expelled from the organization.

If it weren't for his father's protection, he would have been assassinated by the organization.

Although he was ultimately spared assassination, the failure of the mission was a huge blow to John.

For ten years, he had been living in the shadow of mission failure, drinking heavily and becoming decadent and slovenly.

Most of the time, he falls asleep thanks to the numbing effect of alcohol, and he is rarely awake.

In his few moments of lucidity, he devoted himself to investigating why the mission had failed.

Until recently, John suddenly came to him and said he had a solution...

"What, you have a solution?"

"There's a way to make up for the failure of that mission back then!"

Although I didn't want to believe John, when I heard him say that some wonderful things had happened in the world, and that some things that had already happened had been quietly changed.

Since other things can be changed, then the events of that year can also be rewritten!
This time, he entered the system scenario as a patch carrier in order to correct the error at that time.

So, this is what he and Lisa look like ten years from now.

John, who was standing in front of him, was an NPC (player versus player).

Having grown accustomed to John's unshaven, drunken appearance, seeing this spirited and handsome young man in front of him caused him to momentarily feel dazed.

He stepped forward and hugged John tightly.

John looked disgusted: "Mike, what...what are you doing?"

"It's nothing, just a little..."

He released John somewhat embarrassedly, his face beaming with excitement.

John hesitated, "Mike? You...you already have Lisa?"

Upon hearing this, he took two steps back and said seriously, "Don't talk nonsense, there's nothing between Lisa and me."

After saying that, he gave an awkward laugh.

"Everyone knows you like Lisa, and you still won't admit it!" John punched him, then changed the subject: "What did you just say? What trouble are we in?"

trouble?

Mike hesitated for a moment, thinking to himself: If I told John that historical events could be rewritten at this time, he would probably think I was crazy.

Perhaps it would be more appropriate to put it from a different perspective.

Having made up his mind, Mike cleared his throat and said, "John, hurry up and find out who recognized that assassin."

It's impossible to detonate it prematurely if it hasn't been discovered.

"Wait a minute, the intelligence department probably won't be able to investigate this."

"Let's check. There are still three assassins around. We need to make sure no one else has been exposed, and whether we need to adjust the operation plan." Mike spoke in a flustered manner, his English words coming out in a string.

John looked out the window; from this angle, he couldn't see the chaos following the explosion.

But he had seen the explosion and the force of the impact... which was why he was leaning against the window.

“Okay! Just a moment!” John readily agreed.

He took out his phone, quickly dialed a number, and instructed, "Investigate what happened on Zhanqian Street just now, and send me all the information you can find."

After the other party replied respectfully, they hung up.

John and Mike looked at each other, and John said slowly, “Soon! The organization has infiltrated every aspect of this city. That’s one of the reasons I agreed to take on the mission.”

"With such a huge organizational network supporting it, that Wenjie guy is just a minor episode."

He was right; his phone vibrated twice very quickly.

A text message came in.

John quickly clicked on it, and Mike gathered around, the two of them reading the message together.

Unconsciously, the two of them frowned, their expressions becoming increasingly serious.

“How did this guy, number 82, know we were disguised assassins?” John asked.

"At the time, number 101 was online and there was audio output. Because their internal communications were encrypted, it was impossible to crack."

“But judging from the location, it matches the location of Wenjie that Lisa mentioned,” Mike pondered.

“Wenjie?” John was puzzled. Why did Lisa suddenly notice someone named Wenjie?

"Is he also a security guard?"

Mike swallowed hard and said with difficulty, "This is a complicated story... This Wenjie may have been involved in the whole incident!"

John's eyes flashed with fear: "He knows our plan!"

“Yes, very likely,” Max agreed thoughtfully, then added hesitantly, “He may only know part of it, since he only participated in one of the mission lines.”

“The one on Zhanqian Street!” John said, a knowing smile appearing on his face.

"Yes, Zhanqian Street!"

Mike suddenly remembered something and hurriedly said, "Check Yang Shanshan again."

This Yang Shanshan is the target of this mission... Mike stopped talking; even if he told John, John wouldn't understand.

John looked at Mike and did as he was told.

Mike is acting a bit strange tonight; a quick investigation on Zhanqian Street revealed a problem.

So, Yang Shanshan might also have some issues.

Soon my phone started vibrating; it seemed they had also found Yang Shanshan's information.

John glanced at it briefly, found the key point, and said, "She doesn't look special; she's just someone who's participating in the performance. But she's also on Station Front Street right now."

Also on Zhanqian Street... Mike silently repeated to himself.

Wenjie was rushing to Zhanqian Street in a great hurry.

It seems that Yang Shanshan is related to Wenjie.

No wonder they set up a scene resembling the southern part of the capital. Professor Zhao thought the system would activate in about three days, but it was activated when a man and a woman appeared in the park.

It must have been seeing the girl in the white dress that triggered something in Wenjie's brain.

What happened to Yang Shanshan?

John couldn't see anything wrong with the basic information, so he simply asked directly.

"I'm wondering what the connection is between Wenjie and Yang Shanshan!" Mike said truthfully.

“What’s the connection between them?” John murmured, repeating himself.

Mike and Lisa's faces flashed through his mind, and he chuckled teasingly, "Maybe it's just your kind of relationship with Lisa!"

Upon hearing this, Mike became excited and tilted his head back, saying, "There's nothing between Lisa and me."

"That's right, maybe there's nothing between Wenjie and Yang Shanshan!"
