My Perfect Female CEO

Chapter 1358: Chapter 1358: Partners in Crime

In an abandoned building, a team of nearly a hundred had settled in, quietly without drawing any attention. Due to the remote location, others could not discover them, and they kept everything simple, avoiding going out to purchase food and drink, thus remaining hidden in the shadows.

"Second Commander, the fifth commander has already been killed. What should we do next?" Amir asked.

He was the leader of the Spine Team, and this team of nearly a hundred was naturally the Spine Team of the Poison Dragon Mercenary Corps.

The Spine Team was the elite among elites within the Poison Dragon Mercenary Corps, each member a rare expert.

Except for handling special situations and executing special tasks, the Spine Team rarely took action, serving as a deterrent to others.

The Spine Team is equivalent to a special forces unit, a powerful asset cultivated by the Poison Dragon Mercenary Corps.

Hawk sent White Whale to lead all members of the Spine Team to execute the annihilation mission against Ye Fan and his group of seven, clearly understanding the extraordinary nature of these seven. Enormous emphasis was placed on them, and to restore the declining reputation of the Poison Dragon Mercenary Corps and deal with potential enemies emerging after the seven, releasing the Spine Team was Hawk’s carefully considered choice.

To eliminate this formidable enemy as soon as possible, Hawk spared no effort.

The "Second Commander" Amir referred to was naturally White Whale, the second commander among the five commanders of the Poison Dragon Mercenary Corps.

"Stay calm. For now, let’s watch how things develop. Once we locate the target’s hiding place, we will strike with a thunderous blow and kill in one move," White Whale said coldly, exuding a dense killing intent.

"Our information channels here are very limited. It will be difficult to find the target," Amir said honestly.

"Don’t worry, I have already commissioned several underground gang forces, offering a huge reward for any information about the whereabouts of the seven and any suspicious clues. Besides relying on information from the bounty, we must also rely on our own efforts to find the target’s whereabouts," White Whale said. "The seven have already opposed General Hawan, maybe they will still monitor General Hawan’s movements. Post scouts outside General Hawan’s camp. As soon as they discover the target or any suspicious person, they should kill on sight, with no need for approval or proof."

"Yes, I will make arrangements." Amir agreed, then added, "I have to say, the nearby gang forces all follow the lead of Boss Zuo. You should know there’s friction between this Boss Zuo and us. Finding the whereabouts of the seven through gang forces will be challenging. If the entrusted forces are unreliable, we might fall into a trap, leading to significant losses. Our target is the seven major enemies, and for now, we cannot engage in too much conflict with this Boss Zuo."

Amir was very clear about the current objectives and situation. On Boss Zuo’s turf, he was not assured of the forces entrusted by the second commander, fearing they might receive false reports and fall into Boss Zuo’s ambush.

"The gang forces I have commissioned are quite reliable, but even so, the information these forces provide is only for reference. I am mentally prepared not to clash with Boss Zuo nor fall into the enemy’s trap," White Whale said, an undisguised sinister expression on his face. "Besides looking for targets ourselves, there’s another person who is our greatest ally."

"You mean General Hawan?" Amir frowned, guessing the identity of the second commander’s ally.

"Exactly," White Whale replied impassively.

"But the death of the fifth commander is related to this General Hawan. He is our enemy," Amir stressed.

"General Hawan is wrong, but right now, we still need General Hawan," White Whale asserted without room for doubt. "Don’t have opinions about General Hawan. At least, while he’s still useful to us, suppress any dissatisfaction and don’t show it."

"No matter what, I am still displeased with General Hawan’s actions," Amir maintained his stance.

"Have you heard that barking dogs seldom bite?" White Whale scolded Amir. "If you manage to kill those seven targets, and you have what it takes to kill General Hawan to avenge the fifth, then go ahead. If not, keep your mouth shut."

"Did the Chief Commander also agree to this?" Amir’s eyes blazed with a killing intent, itching to ask.

Despite wanting to kill General Hawan, without Hawk’s instructions, he did not dare act rashly.

"General Hawan must pay a heavy price for the death of the fifth, but that will be after we have annihilated the main enemy. If General Hawan dies, someone else will come to take over his duties, and one person’s death won’t affect us much," White Whale said, not admitting this was at Hawk’s behest but seeing it as a necessary action.

"I understand, act first and report later. I believe the Chief Commander won’t say much," Amir laughed grimly.

Justice for the fifth commander would be sought, but only after using General Hawan to eliminate Ye Fan and his group of seven. Before that, cooperation with General Hawan was still needed.

This was White Whale’s own decision, not Hawk’s orders.

As the saying goes, "A commander in the field is not bound by the orders of his sovereign," and this was White Whale’s thought.

"First, let the brothers settle down, then come with me to meet General Hawan," White Whale said.

"Yes!" Amir replied loudly.

...

Outside General Hawan’s camp, White Whale and Amir drove over.

White Whale had already arranged a meeting time with General Hawan, arriving after settling their men.

General Hawan’s adjutant personally escorted White Whale and his party into the camp.

"White Whale, my dear second commander, seeing you here makes me overjoyed and delighted," General Hawan chuckled as he approached and addressed White Whale. "How is Commander Hawk? Please convey my sincere greetings to Commander Hawk."

"Your Excellency General, the chief is well, thank you for your concern," White Whale replied with a smile.

"Commander White Whale, truly the most beautiful lady I have ever seen," General Hawan complimented, then invited, "I have already prepared lunch. To dine with Ms. White Whale is my blessing."

"Your Excellency General, you are too gentlemanly," White Whale smiled, though insincerely. freēwebnovel.com

At the dining table.

General Hawan and White Whale ate and drank while chatting.

"I apologize for the death of Commander Black Shark. Hawk’s magnanimity in forgiving is my good fortune," General Hawan said gleefully. "I do hope to closely cooperate with Ms. White Whale to slay the formidable enemy and avenge Commander Black Shark."

"General, Black Shark’s death is not your fault. It’s only due to those seven vile enemies," White Whale responded with a cheerful facade. ƒrēewebnovel.com

"Ms. White Whale indeed understands reason. It’s all because of those seven despicable assassins," General Hawan stated viciously.
