Chapter 1532: Chapter 1536: The Real Mission
Ye Ning said, "The slums. What, you’ve been in Africa this long and you don’t know there are tons of slums here?"
"I—I of course know that. The point is, why do I have to live here!"
Ye Ning ignored her, closed the door to the room, and looked outside.
The people here were a chaotic mix; trying to find one person would be very difficult.
The room was something the family had casually thrown together themselves.
Give them a little money and they’d let you stay the night.
This family was like that.
A lot of criminals here did the same thing, which made them very hard to track down.
Ye Ning opened the Organization’s website on her phone and cursed at the old man on the other end from outside, "What the hell kind of mission did you give me? If you don’t tell me the truth right now, I’ll shove this woman’s head in the ocean and fill her up like a soup dumpling."
"..."
The old man replied quickly, "Ye Ning, not telling you is also for the sake of the mission."
"Then you can tell me now, or else..."
"Fine, fine, fine, I’ll tell you."
The old man said helplessly, "This woman’s family really is a bunch of Tycoons, but if it were just about how much money they paid us to bring her back, that obviously wouldn’t be enough. The reason we want her is because her blood is very special."
"Special?"
"Yeah. We suspect the genes in her blood are the same as the genes of your previous body and have a special effect."
"What effect?"
"Essentially, she can also absorb souls. In other words, if she dies, other souls might be able to move into her body, just like when you took Ye Ning’s body back then. Or, if she dies, she might cross into someone else’s body, like what happened to you before. This research has been ongoing, and obviously now there are other people who want to do the same research. She’s very special; people have had their eyes on her for a long time. But this time, those few people all died mysteriously at once, so when she escaped to Africa, her family didn’t notice for quite a while. We sent you this time because we really value this girl. You must bring her back. A gene like this only shows up in maybe one out of tens of thousands of people; it’s very hard to find."
Ye Ning finally got it—so it was still all because of this research.
Was this research really that important?
Ye Ning said, "Alright, I get it."
"Be careful of those people."
"Yeah, Gong Ye is looking into who they are."
"Be careful not to damage my body."
"..."
Ye Ning said nothing more, and as she turned back she heard Si Wen screaming inside.
She walked in through the door. "What now?"
"A rat, there’s a rat!"
Ye Ning said, "Oh yeah? Want me to catch it and show you up close?"
"You..." Si Wen’s face changed instantly. "How can you be such a horrible person?"
Ye Ning said, "Then you really haven’t seen much."
"Huh?"
"This isn’t even me at my worst."
"..."
Just then, Gong Ye’s intel came through all at once.
"They really are from a Special Agents organization, Ye Ning. Take a look at the files. It should be some country’s Organization, but we’re not sure which, since Special Agents’ information is always complicated, you know that. Plus some Special Agents suddenly defect to other Organizations, other countries, halfway through. Our preliminary assessment is that it’s an American Organization."
Ye Ning nodded in understanding. "Got it, I know. Then I know what to do next."
