37: Chapter 36 Lure 37: Chapter 36 Lure The Dark Night Knight was about to have a fierce showdown with the Destroyer, the kind where it’s either you or .
When Yang Yi told Kate this news, she imdiately beca excited and then whispered, “Really?”
“Really, the dignity of the Dark Night Knight has been challenged, and he will not allow his dignity to be challenged.”
With a slightly regretful sigh, Yang Yi whispered, “So, the Destroyer should be done for, right?
I think the captain is very confident.”
Kate sighed, “It’s a pity, I can’t get involved.”
Yang Yi gave a bitter smile, “I did offer to help, but the captain refused, saying that a rookie like staying put here is the best help I could give them.”
Kate nodded in agreent, then looked at Yang Yi with sympathy, “You really are too inexperienced, even though you’re smart, you really don’t know anything.”
Yang Yi responded with a bitter smile, “What can I do?
I’ve only been learning for half a month.
When I was in college, I took combat sports seriously too.
I joined the Martial Arts Club and the Sanda Club and I studied hard, but the mont I t you, I was imdiately beaten up badly.
What could I do?”
Kate said sympathetically, “Oh, Yang Yi, I’ve been trained by professional coaches for many years, combat is my biggest interest.
You can’t expect to beat just by joining interest groups in college.”
Yang Yi sighed woefully, “The environnt I grew up in was extrely strict with gun control; even toy guns were severely regulated.
How could I possibly get my hands on a real gun?”
“But spies don’t really need guns.”
“Not needing them and not knowing how to use them are two different things.
We were once comrcial spies, but when the Destroyer cos knocking on your door, wouldn’t you want to have a gun in your hand and be able to use it well?”
Faced with Yang Yi’s questioning, Kate nodded and seriously said, “We both lack a lot.
The assassin who killed my mother, I thought I could subdue him, but his movents were completely different from what I was used to.”
Yang Yi disagreed, “What you’ve always practiced is how to knock down an opponent.
Assassins are familiar with how to deliver a fatal blow.
Every move they make is aid at killing you, so of course, you who have trained in the ring would feel out of place.”
Kate agreed, “We both have a lot to make up for.”
Yang Yi helplessly said, “Exactly, we both have a lot to make up for.
Those real spies have all undergone lengthy training.
I also want to learn, and I’m willing to study diligently, but what can I do if there’s no one to teach , if no one is willing to teach ?”
Kate whispered, “The Shadow Knight seems very impressive.
Maybe, you can learn from him.”
Yang Yi gave a bitter smile, “I’ve tried, but Danny refused to let join them.”
“To learn their skills, you don’t necessarily have to join them, right?”
Yang Yi paused, then he looked surprised, “That’s also true, but how can I learn without joining them?”
“Pay for it.”
Yang Yi, who was sitting at the edge of Kate’s bed, stood up and walked a few steps, his face alight with excitent, “Right, can’t I just pay to learn?
But, but the Shadow Knights are fully committed to the fight against the Destroyers; I’m afraid they won’t have ti to teach .”
“There will be an end one day.
If the Shadow Knights are really as powerful as they say, they’ll surely wipe out the Destroyers soon enough.”
Just then, there was a knock on the door of the guest room, and imdiately afterward, the door was pushed open, as Danny entered, saying, “Sorry, but I have sothing I need to discuss with you.”
Yang Yi quickly said, “Captain, let’s talk over there.”
Danny shook his head, “No, let’s talk here, this matter concerns both of you.”
After sitting down on the sofa in the guest room and pondering for a mont, Danny looked at Yang Yi with a serious expression, “The war against the assassins is very troubleso, extrely troubleso, because assassins are like rats hiding in the sewers; they lurk deeply and won’t co out easily.
Hence, waging war against an assassin organization has to be a very long-term undertaking.”
Yang Yi nodded, “I can understand that.”
Danny continued with a hint of helplessness, “And the Destroyers are a transnational assassin organization, which ans they can already move around the world very conveniently.
It’s very difficult to find them one by one, and utterly impossible to eradicate them completely.
We will throw our full effort into it, but eradicating the Destroyers won’t be a short-term task, so…”
Lifting his head, Danny spoke with great seriousness, “I’ve changed my mind, I want you guys to get involved.”
Yang Yi imdiately pointed to himself, then said in surprise, “?
Can I?
Of course, there’s no problem.
I’m more than willing to help.”
Danny shook his head, then pointed at Kate and said, “Not just you, both of you.
I want the two of you to act as bait, to draw out the Destroyers.
If we can catch a few of them, things will be much easier afterwards.”
Yang Yi was imdiately struck dumb, then he looked towards Kate.
Kate, eager, said, “I’m in!
As long as I can have a crack at the Destroyers, I’ll do anything!”
Kate had already spoken up, and Yang Yi thought for a short while before he cautiously said, “Could it be very dangerous?
I’m fine, but Kate can’t even move right now, isn’t it too risky?”
Danny was very serious when he replied, “My plan is to create a ruse that you’re being chased out.
As soon as you leave here, the Destroyers will surely make a move on you.
It’s certainly very dangerous; too many tactics could be employed, as we might be too late to protect you before you’re dead.
For instance if the Destroyers decide to snipe you from a distance, so, I’ve co to ask for your consent.
If you refuse, it’s all right, this is our business, and being bait is not a protected person’s duty.”
Yang Yi took a deep breath and then with a determined look said, “We can be the bait, but I have a small request.
If we’re unhard in the end, could you teach , teach so skills I should have, Captain?
I can pay.”
Kate, impatient, added, “The two of us, both of us!”
Danny looked at Yang Yi, who was pleadingly saying, “Captain, we just want to learn so skills, not necessarily to join the Shadow Knights.”
Danny stood up, straightened his clothes, and with a serious face, said, “Co down for dinner later, we’ll get the two of you out tonight.
If you both make it, I’ll teach you.
Consider it a reward for being willing to act as bait.”
Danny left the room, closing the door behind him casually.
Yang Yi breathed a sigh of relief, his face filled with gratitude, “It’s agreed, then agreed.
What’s with the serious face?
He had scared that he wouldn’t agree.”
