“Which branch of the organization are you affiliated with? What mission are you carrying out in S City?”

Bo Lang took out two bottles of hard liquor from the liquor cabinet and waved them at her as he asked in a familiar manner.

Qiu Tong narrowed her eyes at his actions and remained silent.

Bo Lang didn’t mind. The brown liquid flowed into two glass cups. He took out two white pills and tossed one in each. Dense bubbles instantly erupted in the glasses. This was probably one of the methods the Vulture Organization used to identify their members.

Bo Lang moved one of the cups closer to Qiu Tong. He wiped his thin lips with his thumb and said with a smile, “Truth serum.”

“It’s a sort of stimulant. Give it a try? Members of the organization often complain it’s not stimulative enough!”

Bo Lang raised his head and downed his own cup, his hawk-like eyes staring fixedly at her.

Qiu Tong knew that she had to drink it. Otherwise, the burly men standing beside her would beat her up.

She raised her hand to twirl her hair as she secretly unscrewed the hidden mechanism in her hair clip and dipped her index finger in the transparent liquid inside.

Qiu Tong raised her glass and dipped her index finger in it before clinking glasses with Bo Lang and drinking it all.

As the hot alcohol flowed down her throat and into her stomach, Qiu Tong quickly felt dizzy. She forced herself to sit up straight and stare in Bo Lang’s direction with a cold smile. “I didn’t expect to be screened like this after being split from the organization for half a year. How ridiculous!”

Bo Lang raised his eyebrows and looked at her in doubt. “How did you get separated?”

Quests covered her forehead with her hand and bit the tip of her tongue with her teeth, relying on the stabbing pain to maintain her consciousness. “The higher-ups have arranged for me to lie low, but ever since the mission was issued to me five months ago, there has been no contact. He might be dead. When I entered the organization, my status was low, so I couldn’t contact anyone else. I could only wander around S City, gamble, and try my best to survive, waiting to be activated at any time.”

Bo Lang’s blue left eye swiveled as he pointed at the ring hanging around her neck. “Is that yours?”

Qiu Tong shook her head. She remembered that Ke Le and the prison guard had both mentioned the rank of the ring. “The ring belongs to my handler.”

“I stole it while he was drunk. I thought I would return it to him when I carried out a mission. I didn’t expect…”

Qiu Tong had chosen to win Bo Lang’s trust with honesty. Bo Lang took out his dagger and rubbed his fingers against the blade. He leaned back in his chair and stared at her. “Where is your tattoo?”

The room froze for a moment. Qiu Tong’s body swayed as she stood up, her eyes tearing as she opened the collar of her tight-fitting clothes in a flirtatious manner.

The dark green tattoo was eye-catching on her round and plump breasts. The surrounding burly men took deep breaths. Bo Lang only glanced at her briefly before gesturing for her to sit down. At the same time, he cleared his throat, indicating for everyone to restrain the filthy thoughts in their minds.

After all, they were comrades. The burly men pushed open the windows and let the cold wind cool down their primitive instincts.

Qiu Tong slowly stuffed the ring back into her clothes. She had drawn the tattoo of the Vulture Organization from memory and got Jin Yang to draw it on her chest overnight. Only if it was drawn on an intimate part of her body would it prevent Bo Lang from examining it further.

Qiu Tong was right again!

The truth serum was very effective. Under the effects of the drug, Qiu Tong was unable to tell a meticulous lie. Bo Lang’s attitude towards her changed from suspicion to trust. He tossed some beef jerky in front of her and said hatefully, “The recent deployment in S City is very tight. We have also lost contact with the higher-ups. However, the organization focus has shifted from overseas to here. I believe there will be some big movements soon.”

“Don’t worry. Since we have encountered each other, it’s considered fate!”

“I’ll definitely inform you when our handlers need us to carry out a mission.”

Bo Lang raised his hand as Qiu Tong’s indifferent gaze met his.

Bo Lang then pried open his eyelids and took out one of his blue eyes. “It’s fake. This eye was blinded during a battle with the capital’s army. I will always remember this debt. I took the initiative to come here from overseas to seek revenge on the guy!”

Qiu Tong picked up her glass and took two sips before saying hoarsely, “It looks like he’s very powerful.”

When Bo Lang saw her actions, his smile grew wider. He nodded and admitted, “He’s a very powerful opponent!”

“It’s getting late. Where are you staying? I’ll get someone to send you back!”

Qiu Tong wanted to refuse, but Bo Lang stood up and stopped her protests. “You’re young and beautiful. The truth serum’s effects are still in play. I will feel guilty if you encounter any trouble on the way. No need to stand on ceremony with me!”

Was this her final test? Qiu Tong smiled as she played with her curly hair. Her red lips parted slightly as she said, “Alright.”

Outside the dilapidated wine house, Bo Lang stared at the back profiles of Qiu Tong and two other members of the organization. He whispered to his assistant, “Do you think there’s a problem with her identity?” The assistant shook his head.. Bo Lang stabbed a dagger into the wall and said coldly, “The more perfect her performance is, the more suspicious she is!”
