"Hmm? A strange suspect." Looking at the helmeted figure in the elevator, the Silver-Haired Princess struck a clumsy defensive pose and made a gurgling sound.
Seeing this person's appearance, Yang Xiaoyou truly felt on the verge of a breakdown. This was her perceived greatest future threat and competitor?
Her teammates merely watched the spectacle with amused smiles.
"You must be from Hive Security Company, right? Can you tell me who your mysterious Boss is? Also, would you be interested in coming to work for me? The benefits are great, and I'll cover the breach fee," she said, causing Yang Xiaoyou's mouth to twitch involuntarily.
Was this really an attempt to poach her right in front of her?
"Why do you have such high hopes for me? The breach fee is quite substantial," Yang Xiaoyou replied, looking into her eyes.
"Hehe, no matter how high it is, it has to be paid. Bringing you over would mean taking the entire Hive Security with you, wouldn't it?" After clasping her hands together and spinning around, Fia Haek Media wore a mysterious smile as she looked at Yang Xiaoyou.
After completing her spin, her entire demeanor shifted dramatically. The innocent smile of a girl transformed into a wicked grin filled with playful malice.
The aura emanating from her even gave Yang Xiaoyou a sense of pressure.
"Oh? So you've recognized me. No wonder. However, I rarely appear at the company; it's quite rare for someone to recognize me. How did you know I would be here today?" Thoughts flashed through Yang Xiaoyou's mind as she spoke calmly.
The fact that the other party chose to come at this particular time seemed intentional. Even if they hadn't met in the elevator, their main purpose was still related to her.
"Of course, I got the information from others," Fia said with a sly smile.
"Not bad; as expected of HLI's princess. You can make such judgments just based on some changes in my team’s actions. It seems you pay quite a bit of attention to our company," Yang Xiaoyou noted. She had decided to come today on a whim and had only informed Nobunaga Hideyoshi.
She trusted Nobunaga Hideyoshi completely. It seemed that this princess's main goal was to make her suspicious of her own team members. Given her abilities, it was indeed not difficult to notice changes in their positions and draw conclusions about today's important mission through comparisons with past behavior.
It appeared that the other party had been paying attention to Hive Security for quite some time.
"It seems you're quite confident in your team members. However, they have indeed caused me some trouble; several I contacted previously all declined my invitations." Seeing that Yang Xiaoyou wasn't taking the bait, Fia reverted back to her initial attitude, changing so quickly that Yang Xiaoyou found it hard to react.
"Where? Trust me, trying to dig into the few people around you is nearly impossible. I have high hopes for these individuals here and a few others," Yang Xiaoyou said after defending himself.
Hearing his words, Fia immediately spread her arms like a mother hen protecting her chicks, blocking the serious-looking subordinates behind her. A low growl escaped her throat, reminiscent of a tiger, which was quite amusing to see.
"It seems you care for your subordinates. So why are you targeting my people?" As Yang Xiaoyou finished speaking, the elevator dinged and descended. He chose to ignore the group of fellows behind him and stepped out of the elevator toward the rented office.
Before going abroad, he had contacted Nobunaga Hideyoshi and checked in not long ago. Now, aside from the members on a mission, most of the key personnel should be waiting for him at the office. Yang Xiaoyou had no time to waste on the fellows lingering behind.
He had gone to great lengths to prevent others from poaching his team; if it hadn’t worked at all, he would have hit a wall by now. However, being targeted by this princess certainly added pressure.
"Eliminate Hank; that fellow can succeed." Ignoring Tang Yin's nonsensical chatter from another world behind him, Yang Xiaoyou opened the office door and hung a "Do Not Disturb" sign on it before shutting it firmly again.
This action made Fia Haek Media, who had just rushed to the door, feel a surge of anger. She clearly knew she had come to find him but was shut out instead.
"Asser."
"Bss."
"Boss."
"Remember Boss."
Upon entering the office, everyone who had been chatting immediately stopped their work and stood up, their voices filled with respect.
In this not-so-large room were about twenty to thirty people. Aside from Nobunaga Hideyoshi, Noah, Ben, and Mo Wenfu, there were also the promising recruits Yang Xiaoyou had brought in during the summer break. Among the new blood cultivated by Hive Security Company, none had yet emerged capable of attending this meeting.
Since each person had been tailored with a body enhancement plan, now that its effects were becoming apparent, Yang Xiaoyou hadn’t shown his face in over a month but his prestige had only grown.
"I appreciate everyone's hard work during this time. The achievements of Hive Security Company and Wasp are inseparable from your efforts." After scanning the crowd, Yang Xiaoyou felt quite satisfied. If this team were formed by those who had reached their peak in his memory, it was something others wouldn’t even dare to imagine. Each individual possessed enough capability to become a key figure in an elite team.
However, just as Yang Xiaoyou began to speak, there came a loud series of knocks on the door that had just been closed.
"Contact security, Hideyoshi. Please ask those fellows to leave first." Yang Xiaoyou had no intention of opening the door despite the voice behind her. She instructed Nobunaga Hideyoshi to make the call. Since they had come looking for her, it was indeed an opportunity to talk, but she needed to cool them off first.
Nobunaga Hideyoshi showed no sign of disagreement with Yang Xiaoyou's command. He picked up the internal phone and dialed a number, his handsome face rivaling that of any woman, making him look like a personal secretary—though unfortunately, he was male.
"Boss, those people outside aren't from HLI Company, are they?" Noah asked, somewhat disgruntled. It seemed that among those Fia Haek Media had approached, he was the one they had found.
"Indeed, it's them. Does anyone know how they got wind of us? As it stands, neither Hive Security nor Wasp Arms is on the same level as them." Yang Xiaoyou looked at everyone present and inquired. Although HLI had not yet reached its peak, it was already a top-tier arms group, standing out even among the best. Compared to her own organization, which might not even qualify as third-rate, they were indeed on a different level.
"Recently, a Free Arms Dealer who wasn't on good terms with us was swallowed up by them. However, we were unaware of this at the time due to our information disadvantage. After that organization received support from HLI and engaged in a fierce battle, that Silver-Haired Girl came knocking at our door. I heard she went out for business recently but didn’t expect her to return so soon," Mo Wenfu said with a sigh from his corner, feeling slightly out of place among the others.
"What do you think of her, Mr. Mo? How is her tactical layout ability?" Yang Xiaoyou asked after pondering for a moment upon hearing Mo Wenfu speak. After all, Mo Wenfu held a high-ranking position and could communicate effortlessly in English with the others.
Upon hearing Yang Xiaoyou's question, Mo Wenfu's eyes sparkled with insight. "If she was the commander we faced back then, then this girl is far more complex than she appears on the surface. Although many of her tactics are still somewhat immature, her unpredictable maneuvers are truly astonishing. I couldn’t manage to capture her during that encounter. Given her age, if she continues to grow, her abilities will surpass mine."
The voting system allowed each person to receive a ticket for points; I just wanted to break into the top five for a brief introduction and cover—tears!
