Red Butterfly, the Four Gates of Southeast, Northwest, East, and South, have each set up their bases in the regions they control.
For ease of management, Zhu Fan will undoubtedly want to control all economic power,
and the strength of those four Sect Leaders is formidable—surely they were selected from elite ranks. The use of nerve toxins guarantees Red Butterfly's firm control over all personnel.
Initially, Zuimo wasn't controlled by the nerve toxins, which might be due to his outstanding performance afterwards, earning him the real antidote to eliminate the toxin.
After returning to XG, Xiaofan and the team members each received a member handbook, documenting the membership grades of the Assassin Network and some untouchable regulations. The rewards and penalties were clearly written.
If a mistake is made, the punishment is confinement, followed by enduring the erosion of the nerve toxin for half an hour to a full day, depending on the severity of the mistake. As for rewards, it's all money. Successfully complete a mission—money; perform excellently—money; complete tasks ahead of schedule—still money.
Fortunately, Xiaofan's team was kept in XG by Zhu Fan and wasn't picked by the other four Sect Leaders. Only by staying with Zhu Fan can Xiaofan quickly learn all of Red Butterfly's deployments, including the exact locations of the Four Gates.
"Xiaofan, they are back."
"Oh? Any news?"
"They changed to new phones, which should have been given by Red Butterfly. We have to keep waiting for updates."
"Hmm, everyone needs to stay sharp these days—no running around casually. Don't drink too much either; keep a clear head."
"Got it. When have we ever gotten drunk?"
In these past three months, Li Kuo and the others haven't been idle. They've thoroughly checked all the data of the Dongwu Group, including keeping all the involved people like Qin Hai, Liang Yanlong, and other major shareholders under surveillance.
Just waiting for Xiaofan's final orders.
However, upon returning to XG, Xiaofan was troubled. Many things were causing him a headache.
First, a week after returning, Zhu Fan hadn't given him any tasks, not even meeting him in person. Second, he couldn't stay in his old house and had to live in the place dictated by the organization. All nine of them were crammed into a mansion, seemingly under surveillance at all times and unable to act freely.
Has he been sidelined? Or is there some grievance against him?
No matter what it is, Xiaofan must patiently wait.
"Captain... Captain..."
"Huh?" Xiaofan, napping in the living room, suddenly heard Bai Xue's angry voice.
"White Bear and the others had inappropriate behavior towards us again, and you do nothing?" Bai Xue said coldly, gazing towards the stairs.
Upon hearing that, Xiaofan also looked at the stairs, spotting White Bear and three others limping, with bruised noses and faces, walking down. It seemed they had been severely dealt with.
Apparently, White Bear and the others were not much beyond appearances; if there were a real fight, they would be no match for these three women.
"They've been beaten like this; they definitely won't dare next time."
'Whoosh.'
Xiaofan hadn't finished talking when another figure darted quickly downstairs, demonstrating agile movement and nimble actions.
"Bai Xue, stop that Caterpillar; he tried to install a camera in my room just now."
Subsequently, two more shadows quickly chased after.
And Li San, seeing the unfavorable situation, immediately withdrew into his room, then jumped from the balcony outside the room to escape without a trace.
What kind of nonsense is this? Xiaofan was really having a headache. Damn it, people say women are troublesome.
"Captain, is there really no reward and punishment system in our team? If you keep letting them go wild, our team will definitely split apart."
"Exactly, Captain. You need to manage them well."
The three women stood in front of him, chattering, each exposing their snow-white legs, miniskirts that couldn't be shorter, and with their excited tones and movements, Xiaofan, lying on the sofa, easily saw the color of their underwear, giving rise to unintentional thoughts.
These three women, when at the base, dressed modestly, but back in XG, they completely changed. Not only were they gorgeously dressed, but they also dressed seductively and flirtatiously. Throughout this week, they'd been borrowing money from Xiaofan to go shopping for clothes every day.
If dressed like that, it would be strange not to get bothered by men easily.
Oh right, speaking of borrowing money, even though they all received living expenses just after getting out, before doing any missions, that so-called living expense was definitely not enough for these women to splurge.
Loving beauty is a woman's nature, and this advertisement slogan is absolutely correct, even Shen Zuimo back then loved pretty dresses.
"Ziyang, call Uncle Zhong, have him help find another place, tell him nine people in one building is too cramped and inconvenient."
"Oh." Wang Ziyang, eating an ice cream and playing mobile games, responded, then turned off the game and made the call. After a little while, he said to Xiaofan, "No way, Uncle Zhong said there's only one house, and we're not allowed to move ourselves, we must stay here waiting for orders."
"Damn it. Caterpillar." Xiaofan shouted angrily.
"Hey, coming." Li San suddenly emerged from the second floor, this guy, hadn't he just fled to the first floor?
"Don't stir up trouble; take the women to Bolan Street. Also, all three of you, don't wear so little at home. Really..." Frustrated at not being able to nap peacefully, Xiaofan murmured a few words then stepped outside.
"Hey, Captain, where are you going?"
"I want some peace."
"Ah, well, my nickname is Jingjing after all, I want to go too." Bai Xue said, quickly putting on high heels and following Xiaofan click-clacking.
"NO, Bai Xue, how could you transfer your affection so quickly? Alas, such a hard life. Ruyu, let's go for a walk too." Li San turned to Ruyu.
"Get lost, I'm not bothered with you."
"Hey, Leng Yue, you..."
"Hmph..."
The two girls had also seen through Li San, considering him perverted to the extreme over the past week, so the three girls unanimously decided to leave the fourth room upstairs for Xiaofan to live in.
"Captain, where are we going? Shall we go shopping?"
"Not going."
"Then where are you going?"
"Look for women."
"But I am a woman." Bai Xue, trailing closely behind Xiaofan, even went as far as to act coyly.
"Are you ordered to monitor me?" Xiaofan suddenly turned, giving Bai Xue a serious look.
