Chapter 1284: A Huge Mess

“Gatekeeper, are you suspecting that they are delivering news through the game?”
“Yes!” said Shen Qianshu coldly. They were playing League of Legends. Shen Qianshu was relatively familiar with the game. Indeed, the people were not engrossed in the game and were instead chatting there.
“Retrieve their chat content.”
Upon Shen Qianshu’s orders, they acted quickly and immediately retrieved the chat records. Two of them swiftly decoded it and revealed a message.
The Gatekeeper is shutting the doors to catch thieves.
North America needs to be careful.
The new Gatekeeper is not easy to mess around with.
We are definitely being monitored, but we don’t know from where. The Gatekeeper seems weak. Please take note, she only seems weak.
Despite decoding all of the game’s content, the messages retrieved were entirely unrelated to the attack. It was just them contacting the agents in North America to deliver the news regarding what happened in the castle tonight.
“… ” Shen Qianshu was speechless.
Thank you for thinking so highly of me.
“What about those online?”
“No suspicious activity. They are only looking at the news.”
“Monitor them attentively. Do not let your guard down.”
“Yes!”
If the person who planned the attack was in the castle, he would not remain a sitting duck. Beckman had been investigating. All the related pieces of evidence were saved in the International Counter Terrorism Office. They just needed to review the files to see the statistics at the scene. With a comparison of the field data, they could then sieve out suspicious personnel.
Butler went over and said, “Molise wants to see you.”
Shen Qianshu was puzzled and hesitated for a moment before sending for Molise to come to the meeting room. She also called Meng Qi over. Other than the butler, she person she trusted the most was still Meng Qi.
Molise’s leg was almost paralyzed. If she did not go to the hospital within two days, that leg would leave a serious after-effect. The doctors in the castle merely gave her some simple treatment.
The butler went to call the doctor.
Molise was breaking out into a cold sweat. After the anesthetic, her wound was immensely painful. She shot a hateful gaze towards Meng Qi. Meng Qi’s move was extremely harsh—the dagger had stabbed into her bone. That was the most painful.
Meng Qi was unaffected, and his heart did not fluctuate.
“What do you have to say?”
Molise said, “I want to go to the hospital.”
“Impossible!” said Shen Qianshu. “Before this issue has been completely investigated, no one is allowed to leave. The butler has already called for a doctor. Your leg will be fine.”
“I’ll go to the hospital, and you can send men over to keep an eye on me. I need to have an operation, and even if the doctor comes, it may not be effective. Without the necessary equipment, my leg cannot be saved,” said Molise. “I am an agent. My leg cannot be paralyzed.”
“Molise, you can even accept death, but you cannot accept a paralyzed leg?”
“Yes, I can accept death, but I cannot accept a paralyzed leg,” said Molise. “If I tell you who the planner of the Paris terrorist attack was, you will release me to the hospital, right?”
Shen Qianshu pondered about it. “Yes!”
Indeed, she knew something. Even if it was not planned by her, at least, she could provide some clues.
“You had always suspected me, right?” said Molise. “You suspect me because of Mo Er. However, the attack is completely unrelated to me. Indeed, it was planned by Mo Er, and there’s someone in Paris cooperating with him. But the person is not me. Although I am no good person, I am not someone who will not dare to own up to my actions. I know…”
In the air, there was a sudden light cracking sound.
A bullet penetrated the air, and Meng Qi immediately pounced over and knocked Shen Qianshu down. The bullet shot into Molise’s chest and toppled her. Even the chair she sat on was overturned.
