…
Revy, who was as sticky as taffy, finally came down, but it was not Shen Ye who pulled her off him, but Boss Chang who brought an outsider in.
It was a tall young woman with short hair. She was carrying a small suitcase and wearing rimless glasses without prescription. She was wearing a white lab coat. Probably because she had been moving around in the jungle all this time, her white clothes were covered with mud spots, making them look like camouflage uniforms. She was wearing a pair of grey overalls, which were also covered with mud spots. They seemed to be ill-fitting and too big. There were also many cracks on the pants, which were probably caused by being scratched by branches when crossing the jungle.
The young woman who seemed to be a researcher found a place to sit down as soon as she came in, put down her suitcase, and crossed her legs elegantly. If it weren't for the fact that her clothes were too dirty, she would definitely be an intellectual beauty.
Watching the young woman pouring herself a cup of black tea without paying attention to the people around her, Shen Ye asked Revy: "Is she the one that Koko asked you guys to protect? What's her name? She looks like a researcher? Isn't she also studying biochemical viruses?"
"You ask so many questions, which one do you want me to answer first?" Revy looked at him with dissatisfaction. She was impatient and had a bad temper. Because Dutch was in the office, she rarely used her brain. After Shen Ye asked a series of questions, she didn't know which one to answer for a moment.
"Ahem... Then just answer her name first." Shen Ye thought for a moment and said with a light cough.
"Soi."
Without waiting for Revy to speak, the short-haired woman said her name directly.
"I don't know you, but you sound familiar. But I can guarantee that I have never seen you before." Shen Ye glanced at her and said firmly.
"That's a shame. I thought I was famous!" The woman named Soi shrugged, then took a sip of black tea elegantly and commented, "Not enough sugar. It's too bland."
"If Roberta didn't like black tea with sugar, I wouldn't even add that little bit of sugar." Shen Ye likes to drink Coke because it's sweet, and he also likes to drink tea because it's fragrant, but he absolutely doesn't like tea with sugar. The taste is too weird. I'm afraid only people who are influenced by the European and American tea drinking customs like it.
"What a pity! Black tea with sugar is a great drink for refreshing the mind." Soi shook her head. She looked on the coffee table, found a bag of sugar, tore open the package and poured all the sugar in.
Shen Ye felt a little pain in his teeth after watching this scene: "If you drink like this, you will get diabetes sooner or later."
"Let's talk about it after I get it. Now I'll live one day at a time." Soi looked indifferent.
"So, what do you want to talk about?" The conversation between the two people was too much for the people around them to listen to. Balalaika knocked on the table, indicating that they had gone off topic.
In fact, she didn't speak, and Shen Ye felt that he was being diverted. He reorganized his thoughts and asked, "What are you doing? Why did Koko ask someone to save you?"
"Can't you tell from my outfit?" Soi asked doubtfully. She lowered her head and glanced at the white coat on her body. She continued, "As for the Koko you mentioned, I'm sorry, I don't know her and I don't know why she saved me."
"Then do you know?" Shen Ye turned to ask Dutch and the others.
Dutch shook his head: "I'm not sure either. At that time, Koko just asked us to pick up someone... Oh, by the way, she also said that she received a call from a friend, and her friend asked her to invite someone."
A figure suddenly appeared in Shen Ye's mind: "Ada?"
"Maybe." Dutch and Ada were not very familiar with each other, so he shook his head again.
Then he pointed at Soi and said, "But according to Koko, they should have sent her to Europe, but she strongly requested to come to Southeast Asia, saying that she was looking for a very important person, so she asked us to pick her up and bring her to Southeast Asia. However, the person she was looking for disappeared, so we had to take her to Roanapur first."
"I see." Shen Ye roughly understood the whole story.
Probably, Koko received the news and found this woman named Soi. She originally wanted to send her to Europe for protection, but she had to go to Southeast Asia to find someone. So Koko paid Revy and others to pick her up, but they didn't find anyone, so they simply brought her here.
After thinking for a while, Shen Ye continued to ask Soi: "Having said so much, can you tell us what you do?"
"Sorry, it's a secret." Soi looked up at him and said lightly.
Shen Ye could only look at Dutch again, but Dutch also shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.
Balalaika laughed and said, "Do I need to ask? You can tell by the way she's dressed. She must be a researcher, either weapons or medicines. But since Koko takes her so seriously, I think she must be someone who's researching some kind of weapons of mass destruction... Am I right, Miss Soi?"
"You guessed half right, but there is no reward." Soi's face was calm, but her eyes were slightly narrowed, showing the uneasiness in her heart.
"Oh, why are you asking so many questions? It has nothing to do with us anyway. When she finds someone, we can just send her to Europe." Revy couldn't hold it in anymore after watching everyone talking for a long time. She thought they were all talking nonsense. She said loudly, "Now, the most important thing is to arrange a hearty lunch. I've been eating compressed biscuits in the jungle for several days and I can't stand it anymore."
After listening to Revy's words, Balalaika turned his head and asked his adjutant: "How is the lunch preparation going?"
"It will be ready soon. It's your favorite Russian meal, Captain." The adjutant said with his head down.
"Then please wait a little longer," Balalaika said.
"If you don't mind, please bring some more delicious drinks. I haven't seen Shen for such a long time, so I must have a good drink." Revy added.
Balalaika glanced at her and said, "Revy, don't forget that this is a Moscow hotel. We may lack everything, but we will definitely not lack wine."
Her words made everyone smile knowingly. Indeed, this is the Moscow Hotel!
Shen Ye also laughed a few times. At this moment, he suddenly remembered something and immediately asked Dutch: "Dutch, have you heard of the Blue Army?"
"Blue Army?" Dutch was stunned, then frowned.
"I seem to have heard of it. Let me think about it..." Dutch lowered his head.
After thinking for a while, Dutch raised his head and said, "I remember that when I was serving in the US Army, I heard about this organization. This organization often recruits people from the army. It is a mercenary group that works for money. Moreover, they have no bottom line. As long as they are paid, they will even do things like terrorist attacks."
