In the slightly cramped street corner, the dim lights stretched out Yu Anan's figure, as if it was a metaphor for her mental journey, along with the tense atmosphere and urgency, which was infinitely extended.

"Morohashi-sama...oh, no, I should call you Akai Shuichi, how are you?"

That’s right, the person who suddenly appeared was her target of this mission, Shuichi Akai.

The unexpected reunion created a subtle tension in the air.

"Mr. Akai, why don't we talk first?"

There was unquestionable firmness in Yu Anan's words. She looked directly into Akai Shuichi's dark green eyes, and keenly sensed a hint of complex emotions in them.

Today's Shuichi Akai is no ordinary person, so she still needs to remain somewhat vigilant.

Akai Shuichi raised a meaningful smile and said calmly, "I know your identity is not simple, Xifeng... or should I call you Miss Yu Anan?"

His voice was extremely low, and every word seemed to be carefully worded. It was both a statement of fact and a test of An An.

An An's eyes froze for a moment, then she regained her composure. Faced with the exposure of her identity, she was not at all panicked, but became more certain of her judgment.

"I think you won't reveal my identity." Her words were extremely firm, as if she had already seen through Akai Shuichi's heart.

Hearing this, Akai Shuichi chuckled: "Oh? Why are you so sure that I won't expose you?"

He took a few steps closer, and the distance between them was instantly shortened. Yu Anan seemed to be able to smell the strong smell of tobacco on the man.

An An smiled gently, and there was a bit of cunning and calmness in that smile.

"Because we all have our own positions and missions. As an elite of the FBI, you must put the overall situation first, and I am just a pawn in this chess game. Although I have some status, it does not seem to hinder your actions, whether in the organization or now...

What's more, you and I both know that in this complex situation, it is always better to have one more friend than one more enemy, right?"

When Shuichi Akai heard this, a hint of approval flashed in his eyes. He nodded slowly, as if he agreed with An An's statement.

"Indeed, sometimes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend." There was a hint of deep meaning in his words, as if he was putting an end to this sudden conversation that was not perfect but tacit.

So, on this ordinary street corner, two people with special identities reached a tacit understanding in an unexpected way.

Yu Anan chuckled: "Since we have reached a consensus, why don't you just state your purpose directly, Mr. Akai? I am very pressed for time."

Time was running out, and Akai Shuichi didn't waste too much time. He said to Yu Anan directly: "I remember Miss Yu Anan once told me that she would help me when necessary. In exchange, I will also help you at any time within my ability."

As if every passing second carries unpredictable variables, Akai Shuichi paused for a few seconds and continued: "Yu Anan, I know that this request is not trivial, but I believe that you are the only one who can help me."

Shuichi Akai's voice was very low. He stared at Yu Anan. His deep eyes seemed to be able to see into people's hearts, expressing inexplicable trust and expectation.

Upon hearing this, Yu Anan already had the answer in his heart. The only thing he wanted was the Miyano sisters who were still trapped in the organization.

Shuichi Akai is, after all, an important figure within the organization. His defection was undoubtedly a major blow to the entire organization, and it also indirectly pushed the innocent Miyano sisters to the forefront.

"Mr. Akai, I understand now. Do you want me to protect the Miyano sisters if possible?

You don't have to say anything, I promise you, I will do my best within my ability."

Although Yu Anan's tone was light, every word she spoke was sonorous and powerful.

When Shuichi Akai heard this, the corners of his mouth rose slightly. It was a barely noticeable smile, but it was enough to make people feel the touch in his heart.

You know, Yu Anan’s promise is not empty talk. The power behind her is the mysterious and powerful China, which is her most solid backing.

"Ms. Yu Anan, thank you...You can contact me anytime if you need anything."

The two secretly exchanged information and then left, as if they had never appeared, without a trace.

……

Yu Anan took a deep breath, turned around, walked across the street, and got back into the car.

Thinking of what happened just now, she was confused for a moment.

She knew very well that to protect the Miyano sisters in such a large organization, her own strength was far from enough, and she had to rely on the strength and wisdom of the team.

I'm afraid... I need to report this to my superiors in advance.

Since Miyano Akemi's weakness is her sister, the first thing Yu Anan has to do is to rescue Miyano Shiho.

The addresses of researchers in the dark organization are kept secret, so I'm afraid I'll have to conduct a thorough investigation.

The car door closed gently, and the car instantly returned to silence. Yu Anan adjusted her breathing, trying to calm down.

However, this tranquility did not last long, as a burst of hurried footsteps broke the silence around.

The passenger door was suddenly opened, and then the familiar figure of Fūya Rei appeared in An An's sight.

His movements were swift and decisive. He sat directly in the passenger seat and closed the door.

The man turned around, his eyes flickering with tiny lights. He raised a gentle smile and said to Yu Anan, "I'm back."

There were so many unspoken words hidden in that smile, and Yu Anan instantly understood that he would definitely gain something from this trip.

"The situation in London is indeed more complicated than we expected, and the security is more stringent than we could have imagined."

Fūya Rei paused for a moment and continued, "But fortunately, my good things have been dealt with. After all, my hard work was not in vain."

"Thank you for your hard work, Bourbon~"

Fūya Ling looked at her and smiled, then reached out his hand lovingly and touched An An's nose.

Because the surroundings were not safe, he used his mouth to pronounce the words slowly: Fool~

As the two were exchanging brief intelligence and strategies, the car door was pushed open again, and Absinthe stepped into the car with an imperceptible elegance.

She took off the old mask quickly and accurately, and in an instant, a beautiful face appeared in front of everyone.

Those deep and beautiful eyes hid complex emotions, and they didn't look... happy.

Absinthe looked around the car and finally set his eyes on Yu Anan, as if seeking some kind of resonance.

"The mission has failed, but I will report this to my superiors in person.

Let’s go back.”
