He was really afraid of what will come.

"To be honest, at first I didn't pay much attention to the Roples incident. After all, our world has become like this, and it's too common for B.O.W.s to be put into the battlefield in some turbulent small countries..." Ada didn't care about Li Yexing's ugly expression and continued, "But about a month ago, I contacted a boring guy for some personal reasons, and he said that their organization's important goods were lost in Roples."

"At first, I just paid more attention out of professional habits and curiosity, and then I discovered some interesting things, a Chinese mercenary and his cute partner who seemed to have appeared out of nowhere." At this point, Ada looked at Li Yexing with playful eyes and said, "As long as BSAA is willing to investigate deeply, they will find that there are a lot of shady things here, but they ignored you, after all, the people who participated in this operation are BSAA's ace. As long as that man is willing to lie for you, you can deceive the world."

Looking at the woman in front of him, Li Yexing frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Nothing, I just want to talk to you about the commission, that's all." Ada smiled and said, "If you insist on not wanting to talk to me, then I can only go back and talk to BSAA."

'What? Who does she think she is? How dare she threaten me?'

As the killing intent gradually rose, the cruelty and madness inherent in Li Yexing from this world were impacting the mind of the transmigrated Li Yexing the ordinary laborer guy. He suddenly raised his head, and his eyes shot out killing intent that even Ada couldn't help but be startled by.

Ada instinctively wanted to draw her gun, but she saw the killing intent in Li Yexing's eyes disappear instantly. The young man, who looked only about twenty years old, sat on the coffee table, crossing his legs and looking hopeless.

"Let's talk," he said.

"See? isn't this much better?" Ada smiled on her face, but she was relieved in her heart. The mercenary's appearance just now was really scary, as if he was going to rush up and tear her apart.

"Tell me about the mission briefly." Li Yexin said straightforwardly.

"In a week, a luxury cruise ship carrying many social celebrities will set sail for the Mediterranean Sea. They will hold a grand party on that ship and conduct some off-the-record transactions." Ada said, "And I am a little interested in their goods for trade."

"So what? What do you need me to do for you?" Li Yexing asked.

"Not you, but you guys." Ada emphasized, "The security on the ship is very tight. I will arrange your identity to help you get on board. In return, you will become my insurance for the operation, responsible for handling some minor problems for me in secret. If there is a problem on my side, you need to help me evacuate safely."

"How do we evacuate?" Li Yexing asked.

"Obviously, there will definitely exist lifeboats on every rich man's ships." Ada replied, "At that time, you will help me get rid of the security personnel, and then we can escape on the boat. After the mission is completed, you can receive a reward of 8 million US dollars."

"It sounds like there's no problem in this mission...but" Li Yexing looked at Ada, "The problem is, I don't trust you."

"Don't worry, I'm a person who values reputation. Otherwise, how can I survive in this circle?" Ada smiled and said, "So, what's your answer?"

Li Yexing looked at Ada, feeling a bit annoyed. After a while, he shook his head and said, "It's not going to work, I'm still on vacation."

Ada was surprised by Li Yexing's refusal. Suddenly, Li Yexing said slowly and firmly, "You have to pay more."

"Okay, I'll see if I can increase your pay depending on the situation." Ada smiled helplessly.

She opened the black suitcase she had brought with her and took out a stack of documents, saying, "These are the details of the mission and the documents you need. Read them before boarding the ship, and then bring the documents with you."

Li Yexing casually picked up the documents and looked at them for a moment, then frowned and said, "What kind of identity arrangement is this? A noble girl named Lilith E. Spencer from a fallen branch of the Spencer family and her pretty Asian boy Li Yexing?" Li Yexing looked up at Ada and said, "Putting aside this strange character setting like a third-rate novel, do you think my face can be considered a pretty boy?"

"What? Aren't you handsome?" Ada joked, "You know, many rich women like guys like you these days."

"That's disgusting," Li Yexing said.

"Don't worry, you don't have to feel restrained. After you get on the ship, just wait for my message. The rest is to do what those rich people do. Just don't make yourself too different from them." Ada said, "Anyway, it's a fake identity that cannot be verified. I'll make sure your names appear reasonably on the invitation list, and when you board the ship, you only need to show the invitation letter I have prepared for you."

"Should we eat and drink as we please?" Li Yexing asked.

"You can interpret it that way," Ada said.

"Then that's settled," Li Yexing replied.

"Very good," Ada stood up and extended her hand to Li Yexing with a smile. "So, I wish us a happy cooperation."

Li Yexing reluctantly shook her hand and said, "Yeah, happy cooperation..."

"Well, now that we have reached an agreement, I have to leave. To be honest, I am in a hurry," Ada packed up her suitcase and smiled at Li Yexing.

"I will contact you if there is anything, and if nothing unexpected happens, we'll see each other on the ship." Ada left, and Li Yexing checked his watch. It was just after 8 o'clock in the morning, and he needed to make breakfast for Lilith E. Spencer.

After tossing Ada's files into the drawer, Li Yexing was about to head to the kitchen when he heard a knock on the door.

"Fuck me, I swear to God!" Li Yexing instantly became annoyed, and he opened the door to his office in a rage.

"Don't you guys ever intend to let me have a proper vacation?!" Li Yexing roared, only to find a familiar face standing at the door.

"Bucciarati?"

The person in front of him with long black hair and wearing a somewhat peculiar white outfit was named Bucciarati, one of the local Italian mafia cadres. If Li Yexing had to evaluate him, he could only say that this unexpected person was a good one.

"Good morning." Bucciarati greeted Li Yexing and unconsciously looked beyond him into the room.

"Bucciarati, why are you interested in coming here today?" Li Yexing asked.

Bucciarati got straight to the point: "I heard that an Asian woman wearing a coat came to your place this morning. Who is she? What did she come to see you for?"

"It's not important." Li Yexing lied, "I'm on Christmas break. That woman came to ask me to take on a job, but I refused and sent her away."

Seeing Bucciarati's troubled expression, Li Yexing couldn't help but ask, "Bucciarati, what do you want with that woman?"

"It's not a secret. Do you know the hotel we're in charge of on the east side?" Bucciarati sighed, "That woman castrated the hotel owner."
