can't be without a father, and since I'm back from graduation and have to work, the child's education also needs to be prioritized. I want the best for him, so the matter of the child must be brought..."I will arrange for you to meet in three days."

"Okay."

"What's the situation with the Investigation Division"

The ripples asked directly.

"Someone spread the word."

Wan Liang's voice had noticeably lowered.

Has the department head traced it to the source

"Not yet, just playing the long game, don't want to scare them off."

"I understand."

Then both parties hung up the phone.

Wan Liang put a few old mobile phones in his pocket and looked down from the third-floor drying rack. He just saw Tong Wanwan coming back from outside carrying two bags of takeout.

Vanke's leadership could never have imagined that Tong Wanwan would be the mole.

When Tong Wanwan indicated that Lian Ri's state was off and secretly began checking his office phone call records, he immediately turned his suspicions towards her.

Unfortunately, after checking her call logs, Tong Wanwan didn't take any further action until Lian Yi subdued the power of the Single and Jian families and held a renaming ceremony. Only then did Tong Wanwan call for takeout.

Before every incident happened, she would order takeout from the same store. This was a pattern that Wan Liang discovered after much investigation. Now, this small shop has been under surveillance, but no arrest has been made. Following Lian Ri's instructions, he had Tong Wanwan pass the news along.

After finishing the last drag of his cigarette, Wan Liang crushed the butt and turned back to his office.

After dealing with the group's affairs, Lian Yi returned to her residence and told the four of them about meeting Zhen Yun Yi in three days.

"We're going with you."

Gong Fan said unrefutably.

You must surely come with me. Only by deceiving you can Yun Yi continue to serve the other party. Just after meeting with the other party, whether I return is something you need to verify.

Ripple said it casually.

"What if it wasn't"

The lion suddenly asked.

"So, you find a way to catch her and make her finish what I couldn't."

Four people, after hearing the ripple's words, looked at each other and tacitly skipped over the topic.

At this time, inside the Special Crime Investigation Division, Wan Liang called Tong Wanwan to his office to assign work.

The day after tomorrow, Lian Yi is going to see Yun Yi and try to find out something from her. I don't want to alarm too many people, so you and I will go together then.

"Yes, Chief! I guarantee completion of the mission."

Tong Wanwan immediately bowed respectfully.

She had been paying attention to the department head's movements these past two days, and unexpectedly, he actually brought her along.

"Section Chief, what do I need to prepare"

"There are surveillance cameras over there. You're responsible for observing Yun Yi's expressions, better yet, understand her microexpressions. I've always felt she wasn't telling the truth. Perhaps under the stimulation of ripples, she's lost her composure and will reveal some issues."

After thinking for a moment, Wan Liang said.

"No problem, this is my specialty, I'm sure I can find some issues."

Tóng Wǎn Wǎn pledged her word.

Three days later, Lianyi took her four bodyguards and got into a black business car. They left the city and headed toward the suburbs.

Along the way, ripples were silent. She just looked out the window, watching the scenery outside her eyes receding.

"Millstone, does Yunyi understand his situation Does he know I exist"

"Clear, someone over there has contacted her already, and this time Tong Wanwan should cooperate with her, allowing the two of you to switch identities."

"If I'm not mistaken, as long as Tong Wanwan confirms the identity swap is complete, the other 'Yun Yi' will have no need to live."

"Yes, just as you guessed before."

"Is Yun Yi doing this willingly, or is she being forced Does she need to be saved"

Ripples softly asked.

""

This time the stone mill was silent for a long time, so long that Lian Ri thought the other party had gone offline before it finally spoke:

She spent eight years walking to Zeng Hongliang's side, witnessing too much darkness and understanding her own insignificance.

She clearly saw that power and wealth were always in the hands of a few, who trampled on laws and rules at will, stopping at nothing to achieve their goals.

She started to feel lost, uncertain if what she was doing had any meaning. Yun Yi felt that she was merely serving one power only to serve another.

So she thought, if this is the case, why not choose a more powerful backing Then someone behind the scenes found her.

Ripples spoke directly.

"That's about it."

"Eight years is quite a long time, her entire youth has been spent on this, I can understand her feelings."

There is always something to be pitied about a hateful person, her betrayal was not sudden.

The old ways are still the best way.

"So that's why I ask you, is there any point in saving her!"

After sighing, Lian Yi spoke.

This time the stone mill didn't answer, but ripples understood his meaning.

After a two-hour journey, the group arrived at a private sanatorium. Inside a two-story villa at the back of the sanatorium, they saw Yun Yi staring out the window.

Waves, accompanied by Wan Liang and Tong Wannuan, entered the room. Though Lion and the others were worried, they remained outside.

"The clouds are gathering, someone wants to see you. I told you about it last time."

Wan Liang opened his mouth and spoke.

Yunyì heard this and slowly turned her head to look at the three people. Her gaze first swept across Wànliáng's face, then to Tong Wanwan, and finally landed on Liàn Yī's face behind the sunglasses.

A ripple smiled and, with a gesture, took off her sunglasses. Then, she spoke:

"Officer Yunyi, it's nice to meet you. I'm Shu Lianyi, the one who will be taking over your mission."

The ripple of her voice was already close to the clouds, especially when she took off her sunglasses, revealing her face. For a moment, the cloud seemed lost in thought, as if looking into a mirror, because the woman looked so much like her.

"Have a seat! Just call me Yunyi. The title 'officer' seems a world away from me now."

Yun Yi sat by the window and said softly.

"Great!"

The ripples flowed like the good, he raised his foot and walked over, sitting opposite the cloud shadow. He gazed at the woman before him.

"You guys chat, we won't disturb you."

Wan Liang said a word, then took Tong Wannuan and left the room, going to the monitoring room next door.

The room fell silent all at once. Lian Ri didn't want to waste any time and asked directly:

"Why give up on the mission" Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"I told you it wasn't that I wanted to give up, but that I received an order to lie low temporarily. But now it seems like it was a fake order, proving my identity has been exposed."

Yun Yi said calmly.

"Half and half! You haven't been exposed at Zeng Hongliang's place, you're still his right-hand man. You're powerful but he's suppressing you, and you even want to get rid of him after using him. So I killed him for you."

Her eyebrows rose slightly at the corners, and she smiled sweetly.

"For me I'm afraid all the stories going around now are that I killed my boss and took his place!"

"Sounds about right, though what does it matter I'm in charge now anyway."

Ripple said calmly.

"You're better suited to be undercover."

Yùn Yì stared at Lián Yǐ's eyes, speaking word by agonizing word.

"Thank you for the compliment, I think I did better than you!"be incredibly intricate. To take them all down at once, timing is crucial."Ripple put down the telescope and said directly."I'm afraid that someone will help them get away with it when the time comes...
