Sean was stunned on the spot and did not understand what she meant for a moment. He replied in a daze, “Boss, you said that he won’t be coming back. Did you assign him a mission alone?”
Even though he knew that the possibility was slim, he still lied to himself. He scratched his head and smiled honestly. “It must be like this, Boss. Aiya, this kid is not mature enough! How can you trust him so much? What if he messes up your matter?”
Shi Man shook her head gently and could tell how ugly the smile on his face was. She said expressionlessly, “Come to the office with me.”
She walked steadily ahead, but Sean’s feet were unsteady, as if every step was walked on cotton. He was so dazed that he almost tripped over the steps in front of the office.
He staggered and almost fell on Shi Man. Under her complicated gaze, he hurriedly held the door frame to stabilize himself. He scratched his head in embarrassment and said, “Look how careless I am. 1 almost fell. Boss, don’t laugh at me.”
Shi Man turned around silently and led him into the office. She raised her chin and gestured for him to sit on the sofa opposite her. “I just said that Lin Si won’t be back because he knows that his identity has been exposed.”
Sean’s butt had just touched the sofa when he suddenly heard this. He was so frightened that he jumped up and shouted, “Boss, 1 don’t quite understand what you mean.”
Shi Man sighed softly and told Sean the whole story.
As Sean listened quietly, his eyes were filled with disbelief. He was speechless for a long time.
Shi Man did not interrupt his trance. She sighed silently and walked back to her seat, leaving him a quiet space to think.
Although Zheng Xin’s description of the person behind the scenes was general, combined with Shi Man’s previous suspicion of the spy, this person was not difficult to identify.
Thinking about it carefully, it was precisely after Lin Si appeared in G City that this series of things happened.
Sean could not accept this conclusion. His scarlet eyes were bloodshot as he suddenly remembered what Lin Si had said to him not long ago.
That night, the sky was clear and the stars were bright. The gentle breeze blew across his face, bringing warmth.
However, Lin Si’s words were so cold that it made one feel cold.
That night, Sean failed his mission and returned to the base dejectedly. He leaned against the armrest and smoked.
When Lin Si saw this, he slowly walked over and took out the cigarette box from his pocket. Before he could put it in his mouth, Sean snatched it back.
“Children shouldn’t learn this. You’re not learning well!”
Sean always liked to lecture him like this.
Lin Si was used to hearing it, so he was not angry. Instead, he smiled and let Sean reprimand him. When he was done, Lin Si narrowed his eyes and stared at him meaningfully. “Big Brother, do you know why Boss only told you about tonight’s mission?”
Sean’s eyelids lifted slightly. He threw away the cigarette butt in his hand and stubbed it out with his foot. He said in a low voice, “Because Boss trusts me. I’m the only one who can do this.”
As Lin Si chuckled, his smile was mixed with helplessness and mockery.
Sean was instantly annoyed. He raised his hand and punched him mercilessly. He said unhappily, “What are you laughing at? Then tell me why?”
Lin Si stopped laughing. There was a seriousness on his face that Sean had never seen before. “Because she’s suspecting that there’s a mole among us.”
Sean’s eyes suddenly widened, and he clenched his fists at his sides. He could not suppress his anger. “What did you say?”
Lin Si smiled matter-of-factly and said, “She only let you go on a mission alone, but she wants to confiscate our communication equipment and doesn’t let us contact you because she doesn’t want us to communicate with each other. At the same time…”
He deliberately paused for a moment and looked at Sean’s rapidly changing expression. He shook his head helplessly and said, “At the same time, she would test you.”
Sean had never thought too deeply about the deeper meaning of Shi Man’s actions.
He felt that since he had already recognized her as his boss, he naturally had to trust her wholeheartedly. She had always trusted them.
However, he never thought that he would be suspected one day.
However, Sean was not a child who was so childish that he did not know anything. Although he was a little sad, he still looked calm. “Boss has her own considerations. It’s understandable for her to do this. Anyway, I’m upright. I’m not afraid of being suspected.”
“Is that so?” Lin Si looked thoughtfully at the smile on his lips that was about to disappear. He pursed his lips and smiled, but the smile did not reach his eyes. “But Brother Sean, you still told me your mission.”
Sean turned around and glared at him. “It’s all because I pitied you when you were young that I agreed to that lousy agreement with you. As long as we’re out on a mission, we’ll inform each other of our movements!”
As Lin Si chuckled, his eyes reflected the bright moonlight. “Brother Sean, no matter what happens in the future, you will always believe in me, right?”
Sean did not see the seriousness in his eyes and rolled his eyes angrily. He avoided the topic and said, “When you were young, you were clingy.. 1 didn’t expect you to still be like this even after growing up!”
