94: Hydra's Daring Branch

Chen Yanxi looked at the person smiling and welcoming her, not expecting the leader these people spoke of to be a white man.

"Hello, Miss Chen, I'm John. It's truly wonderful to have found you safely. I've had someone prepare some dinner. Let someone take you to have a hot bath to relax first. After you've eaten and rested, I'll send someone to escort you back to your country."

John saw the confused expression on her face and knew she was bewildered, but he didn't offer too many explanations.

Instead, he turned his head and said, "Someone, take Miss Chen to bathe first."

As soon as he finished speaking, two maids quickly stepped forward. Seeing this, Chen Yanxi didn't refuse. After all, she was already at their main base. If they wanted to do anything to her, they wouldn't need to go through such a charade.

After she left, John finally withdrew his gaze and looked at Little Blade, who was standing respectfully with his head bowed beside him, and smiled, "You're Little Blade, right? Excellent. You've rendered a great service this time. Tell me, what reward do you want?"

Little Blade's heart swelled with joy upon hearing this, but he didn't show it. He looked up and said seriously, "Leader, as a member of the organization, this is what I should do. If not for the organization, I would still be living in a dangerous house. To receive your affirmation is the greatest reward for me, Little Blade."

John hadn't expected the other party to be so enlightened. After a moment of thought, he said, "Hydra is never stingy with those who render meritorious service. We are just starting in Myanmar and are in great need of capable individuals."

"After this matter, it will be the time for us to develop rapidly in Myanmar. Do you want to stay in Myawaddy, or go somewhere else?"

Little Blade's expression was somewhat agitated upon hearing this.

What did John mean?

He naturally understood that Hydra's main strength in Myanmar was in Myawaddy. Staying here was no different from guarding the border.

As for going outside, that would be to expand the organization's territory. The former guaranteed personal safety, while the latter carried a higher risk factor but offered more opportunities to climb the ranks.

Clearly, John was testing his courage.

Little Hei, standing nearby, was anxious. If it were him, he would unhesitatingly choose the second option. Myawaddy was good, but only to that extent.

But he couldn't speak, or rather, he had no say here.

After pondering for more than ten seconds, Little Blade gritted his teeth and decided, "Leader, I want to go somewhere else."

Rather than eating, drinking, and waiting to die here, it would be better to take a gamble.

Hearing this answer, John smiled contentedly, "Hahaha, very good, very energetic! The organization needs talent like you right now. Since that's the case, go back and prepare. Tomorrow, take your men to Kokang. As long as you are capable of taking it, then the Kokang branch will be under your command."

"But don't worry, I won't be stingy with what I should give you. Funds and weapons will be ample, but I won't give you too many men. Besides your existing ones, I'll give you fifty more. As for how you want to develop once you get there, I won't interfere, but don't bring shame to our Hydra."

Kokang?

Little Blade was somewhat surprised to hear John send him there, as it was quite a distance from Myawaddy.

He thought it would be a neighboring area, but this was also good.

"Yes, Leader. If there's nothing else, I'll go back and prepare first."

"Mm, go on!"

After the man left, John then informed the Scavenger that the person had been found.

After leaving the villa, the two, Little Blade and Little Hei, could no longer suppress the joy in their hearts.

The two exchanged glances, both seeing the joy on the other's face. "Brother Dao, are we still drinking that wine?"

"Drink, how can we not drink? We must celebrate, hahaha! If we can take down Kokang, then the branch there will be under my command. Little Hei, don't worry, when I'm the director, you'll be the deputy director. We'll share prosperity and adversity together."

At this moment, he felt like he had finally turned a corner, but the biggest challenge now was how to develop.

Even with the fifty men John gave him, he would only have less than a hundred people in total.

What could such a small number of people do? Although they weren't going there to fight an army, their interests would definitely be affected.

Moreover, the Four Great Families there would certainly not watch him grow and expand. This was indeed a tricky problem.

However, a ship will naturally straighten when it reaches the bridge. Thinking about these things now was useless, and he planned to develop discreetly first.

At the same time!

Inside KK Compound!

Xiao Yulong and his team returned here again, looking at the vast compound, which had become eerily quiet, without a single soul in sight.

There were still dried bloodstains at the entrance, but all the bodies were gone.

Xiao Yulong tightened his grip on his AK, leading the other six men carefully into the compound.

Five minutes later!

Only then did they confirm that there was no one left inside; even all the 'piglets' (victims) who had been held captive had escaped.

"Let's go, we'll search the office building. We need to be fast. We must leave in fifteen minutes."

He didn't believe that the people behind the compound were unaware of what had happened here. They were probably already on their way.

Returning here was a risky move for them, but it was unavoidable, as they were penniless.

In less than ten minutes, the entire office building was ransacked. And surprisingly, they did find some things.

A dozen handguns, and in one of the offices, they found 100,000 US dollars and ten 1000-gram gold bars.

"Damn it, these bastards are really rich. A captain's office is so wealthy. I wonder if Manager Wang's office was thoroughly looted by Hydra's men."

"Don't even think about that. I took a quick look inside, and there wasn't a single thing. The fact that we found these items here probably means Hydra's men only searched Manager Wang's office. Otherwise, let alone the US dollars and gold, they wouldn't have even left us a single gun."

"Alright, stop chatting. Grab the stuff and let's get out of Myawaddy first."

Xiao Yulong saw the others starting to chat amongst themselves and interrupted them.

Upon hearing him, the others immediately fell silent.

Not long after, the group once again left this place of sin, heading out of Myawaddy.

At the same time!

Inside John's villa, after Chen Yanxi finished her bath, she sat at the dining table, eating and looking at John, who was sitting opposite her.

Suddenly remembering something, she swallowed the food in her mouth and softly asked, "Um... can you tell me who asked you to rescue me?"

"I'm sorry, I cannot answer that question. My mission is to find you and safely send you back to your country. I believe that once you return, all your confusions will be answered."

Although he didn't know what relationship Chen Yanxi had with Wang Shaojun, it seemed she knew nothing. To be safe, he couldn't tell her too much.

Seeing that the other party was unwilling to say more, Chen Yanxi could only suppress the confusion in her heart.

The other party was right; everything would become clear once she returned.
