“How could that be? I’ve driven it several times already.” Levi said with certainty, and then she saw a nun wearing a nun’s habit, but with a gun holster hanging under her arm, walk over.

The nun, chewing gum, said with a mocking expression, "Hey, that's where you worship. If you throw trash over there, you'll be cursed by God!"

"Who are you calling trash?" Revy roared.

The nun pursed her lips, ignoring her, and simply pointed behind her: "This way, follow me."

……

Inside the church reception room, several cups of black tea were placed on the coffee table.

“It’s quite rare, Dutch actually let you come here.”

The leader of the Violent Church, the one-eyed old nun Yolandan, took a sip of red tea and spoke in a kind tone.

"Stop talking nonsense, have we got everything we asked for?" Levi asked, crossing her legs.

"Don't rush, Miss Levi." Even though Levi called her an old woman, Yolandan's expression didn't change at all. She was still smiling and stopped the bodyguard behind her who was about to draw her gun. This bodyguard was none other than Sister Ada, who had guided Shen Ye and his group in.

“As a woman, you should be more ladylike, otherwise you’ll annoy men,” Yulantan continued.

"That stuff has nothing to do with me, old nun." Revy remained defiant, but changed her form of address.

Yulantan's lips curled up slightly. She glanced at Locke standing to the side, then at Shen Ye, who was still wearing a mask even though he had taken off his hat. Her smile deepened.

After taking another sip of black tea, Yulantan finally got to the point, saying, "Everything you asked for has been prepared and packed in boxes."

"Then let's get right to it and load it onto the truck," Revy said.

“Of course, I’ll definitely help you load them onto the truck,” Yulantan said. “But before that, may I ask what you’re preparing them for?”

“This is none of your business.” Levi herself didn’t know either, but since it was Shen Ye who wanted it, she continued, “As the seller, you shouldn’t be asking these questions.”

“That is indeed not allowed.” Yulantan put down his teacup.

"Then what exactly do you mean?" Levi glared at Yolandan, she hated riddle people the most.

"hehe."

Yulantan chuckled and said, "I know that the gentleman next to you has a bounty on his head from many forces. You are buying this equipment simply to protect yourselves."

"So?" Now that he had been recognized, Shen Ye simply pulled off his mask and asked.

"Or are you also planning to take on this job?"

“No, no, no…” Yulandan shook his head: “We are just businessmen. Some things should be left to experienced people. What I want to say is that it took us a lot of effort to bring these things in.”

Shen Ye understood what she meant: "You want to raise the price on the spot?"

Yulantan nodded without any attempt to hide his feelings.

"Hey, old woman, you're being really unfair! You call yourselves business people, yet you suddenly raise the price!" Levi wasn't going to let her get away with it. She slammed her hand on the table, drew her pistol, and pointed it at Yulantan.

"Put down your gun." Behind Yolandan, Sister Ada also drew her pistol and pointed it at Levi.

Facing Levi's gun, Yolandan showed no fear. She waved her hand, signaling Ada to put down the gun, and then said, "You can't call it a bargaining stunt, because I'll exchange a piece of information for you, an insider tip."

"Oh?" Shen Ye's heart skipped a beat. He knew that the entire Violent Church was connected to the official organizations of the United States. Perhaps this information was really useful?

"Okay." After thinking for a moment, Shen Ye nodded in agreement, but he still said, "I hope this information is worth the price, after all, my money doesn't grow on trees."

“Absolutely worth the price.” Yulantan said with a smile, looking at the tea in his cup.

"But I can only talk to you alone."

"Okay." Shen Ye nodded.

……

Leaving the violent church, Levi was still angry. A woman's innate curiosity made her dissatisfied that Yolandan had only told Shen Ye the news.

"What exactly did she tell you?" In the car, Revy asked Shen Ye, "Can't you just tell me?"

Shen Ye shook his head, not answering the question. He then fell into deep thought, seemingly processing the news.

Seeing Shen Ye deep in thought, Levi kicked the car door in frustration. She was so annoyed...

……

“Madam, are you sure you can do that? If Mr. Simmons finds out that you sold this information to him, he will definitely hold you accountable.”

After seeing Shen Ye and his group off, Sister Ada returned to the reception room and spoke to Yolandan, who was still drinking tea.

"Let him be angry then," Yolandan said indifferently.

"He only became our contact through his family's influence. How could he possibly have his hands in the NSA?"

“But he is, after all, the National Security Advisor,” Sister Ida expressed her concerns. “I’ve heard he’s also close to the President.”

“It’s alright, Ada.” Yolandan gave her a deep look. “You have to have faith in the people behind you.”

Upon hearing this, Sister Ida paused for a moment, then nodded and turned to leave the reception room.

Watching Sister Ida's departing figure, Yolandan sighed and said, "When you get to my age, you'll know that nothing is more worth pursuing than money."

At this point, a smile returned to Yulantan's face: "This deal was a success. We completed a three-way transaction in one go. I really hope to encounter more of these kinds of things in the future."

……

(To be honest, I'm still a bit dazed as I write this, because it's a little different from what I wanted to write, but at least I managed to get it out.)

Chapter 70! HCF Infiltration and Black Lagoon's New Mission

It was almost noon when we returned to Loanapur from the violent church.

During this time, Shen Ye had roughly sorted out some of his thoughts.

In fact, not much of the inside information Yolandan was supposed to have was actually useful. As things stand, the only thing that made him both happy and worried was that HCF intelligence agents had already infiltrated Roanapur quite some time ago.

"Who could be coming? Ida? Wesker? Or perhaps the Wolves who have defected to them?"

Even after getting off the bus, Shen Ye was still thinking about this question.

"Hey, Shen, what are you daydreaming about? Hurry up and move your things inside."

Seeing Shen Ye get out of the car and still standing by it in thought, Levi, who had already moved the car several times, shouted in dissatisfaction.

Shen Ye snapped out of his daze, gave her an apologetic smile, and then carried a large box in each hand into his rented room.

"Levi, Shen Sang, I'll go get something to eat."

After everything was moved inside, Locke glanced at the time and realized it was already midnight, so he said...

Levi nodded, waved for him to hurry up, and then began to count the weapons in the box with Shen Ye.

A dozen minutes later, the inventory was completed, and Shen Ye nodded in satisfaction.

It's probably because the profits this time were really huge, and Yulantan was originally planning to squeeze some money out of him, so the batch of weapons he received was not only of very good quality, but also included some things that weren't on the list... some yellow, blocky objects.

"What is this?" Levi picked up a piece, brought it to her nose, and smelled it, asking in confusion.

"Shaped explosives," Shen Ye said calmly, lighting a cigarette.

"Oh." Levi nodded, casually tossing the plastic explosives onto the coffee table, and then lit a cigarette.

Suddenly, the door opened, and the people left.

"Levi, Shen Sang, I'm back! Dutch and Benny are here too!" Locke called out as soon as he entered, carrying a large bag of food.

"Did you get the stuff?" Dutch asked as soon as he entered the room.

Levi pointed to the large boxes in the corner and said, "They're all over there."

"That's good. Yulantan isn't easy to get along with. I was worried she would make things difficult for you." Dutch breathed a sigh of relief. If he hadn't suddenly received a call today saying there was a big job, he really would have wanted to go along. After all, given Revy's personality, she could easily clash with the violent church.

"By the way, let's have a meeting after dinner. We just got a job that requires everyone to work together. Shen, you should come too. This job might be a bit troublesome," Daqi continued.

Shen Ye nodded, calculating the time; it should be time for the maid arc of Black Lagoon to begin.

Since they were going to eat, they naturally had to make room first. Shen Ye's rented room didn't have a dining table, so they temporarily used a coffee table instead. As the least senior member of the Black Reef Chamber of Commerce, Locke was the only one who could do this.

Locke placed the bag of food on the coffee table and began tidying up the clutter. However, upon seeing the plastic explosives, he asked the same question as Levi.

"What's this?" Locke asked, holding up a piece. "A cookie?"

“No, Shen said it’s plastic explosives,” Levi explained.

Upon hearing that he was holding explosives, Locke's face instantly darkened. He was about to throw the explosives away, but then he was afraid they would explode, so he could only hold them helplessly in his hand.

Seeing Locke's panicked expression, Shen Ye smiled, took the plastic explosive, tossed it onto the sofa, and then plopped down on it. This action turned Locke's face from black to white.

“Don’t worry, Locke, this thing won’t explode even if you shoot it; it can only be detonated electrically.” Dutch, who was also a soldier, knew very well how to use plastic explosives and explained.

"Okay... alright." Locke nodded reluctantly, but still sat down at a distance.

……

After lunch, Locke was still tidying up the table, while the others sat together, waiting for Dutch to speak.

“Here’s the thing, I had a delivery job a few days ago, but the middleman called again today saying there’s a big job and we need to prepare more manpower to transport a shipment via Roanapura,” Dach said.

“It’s just a transit through Roanapura, that should be simple, why do we have to go there?” Beni asked.

“That’s cargo that needs strict protection,” Dutch said. “Revy alone won’t be enough.”
