Chapter 994: 994 The Other Shore’s Sea of Flowers, Heather (18)
Heather’s eyes didn’t show any pretense; they were clear: "My Lord, I have never thought of any other life. Heather has grown up by your side since childhood; I have long been yours, and will not go anywhere else. I swear to serve the organization to my death."
Luo Xuan remained silent.
Whether she really had amnesia or not, these words couldn’t possibly be true.
Just based on the things she said to him during their first eting, he could tell that all this was rely false flattery.
"Understood, you can go now."
After Heather left, Night Hawk started to discuss her with Luo Xuan: "Has she been like this all the ti?"
"Yes, since she woke up. The mories I have seen of her start from that point, without any inconsistencies."
Night Hawk stood up and took a few steps.
"I personally trained Heather. I know very well how capable she is. She has the ability to do this. It might be real, and it might be fake," Night Hawk couldn’t discern the truth, "It’s like the pupil has outshone the master, and even I can’t see through her. What was her situation before she ca back?"
"Before, we had discussed how to deal with Li Sinian. At that ti she was Xiao Man, and just when so incident occurred, it was inconvenient for her to act. After that, Li Sinian had already been caught, so I brought Heather back, guessing that perhaps we could use her."
Luo Xuan concealed the truth.
He didn’t tell Night Hawk that Heather had actually betrayed them.
Otherwise, she would have only one path to death and wouldn’t be able to leave here today.
"Whether she is pretending or not, we will be able to tell after she ets Li Sinian in a few days. How could she lack any feelings after following him for so many years? Heather is soone I watched grow up; she seems heartless but is very emotional, the very difference that I feel sets her apart from others."
"Are you suggesting that if Heather is pretending, she will take that opportunity to help Li Sinian escape?"
"There is a possibility of such," said Night Hawk, "Luo Xuan, I know you have your heart set on Heather. If this matter is successfully resolved, I will give her to you, and you can take her anywhere."
He also didn’t ask Luo Xuan why he had injected her with K.
"Once Li Sinian is dealt with, Heather ans nothing."
"What’s the plan for dealing with it, my Lord?"
"If we can extract the whereabouts of that batch of military weapons from her and Heather contributes to it, I will not hold her past wrongs against her, nor will I care whether she is pretending or not. If she can’t get it out, then let her accompany Li Sinian in death. Over ti, I’m afraid that batch of weapons will have been moved."
"It’s unlikely. That batch of weapons is sizable, and to move it in bulk requires enough manpower and ticulous planning. I’ve been watching Li Sinian’s people day and night, and there’s no significant movent right now. What they might want most at this point is likely to find their leader."
"That’s not necessarily the case. We aren’t the only ones who want Li Sinian dead."
What was being referenced was infighting.
...
"Heather, you only have one chance to make a decision," Luo Xuan said to her on the way back.
"Hm? What chance?" Her face bore an innocent expression, and she smiled, "The chance to see Li Sinian?"
"It’s a task given to you by the Lord. You... had better find out where that batch of military weapons is, or else—"
"Or else the Lord will have
killed?" As Heather said this, she leaned back, "Ah... the Lord’s thods of punishnt are indeed severe now. If the task isn’t completed, I have to die... After raising
for so many years, wouldn’t it be quite a sha if I just died like this?"
