Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The triads and Black Hawk have been in continuous conflict for a month, with victories on both sides. They play with real money in the market, but behind the scenes, it’s a hail of bullets. Lu Zhiyuan’s intention during Jiang Junlin’s imprisonment is to take down the dark web-controlled criminal organization and intelligence network of the triads. Ji Chi and Rong Li are extremely ruthless, forcing Gu Ci into a difficult situation.

She has just taken over the triads’ dark web and is not very familiar with it. The first few missions all failed, perhaps for this reason, both Lu Zhiyuan and Ji Chi felt that the new owner of the triads was not familiar with them and was somewhat careless. When Gu Ci counterattacked, Lu Zhiyuan also suffered losses, with three intelligence bases in North America being taken down, fast, precise, and very clean.

Moreover, Gu Ci is very clever. She convened a triad conference, using Pei Qiuying and Chen Rushi’s familiarity with the Black Hawk to turn the tables and reverse the triads’ decline!

Qin Wan helped her a lot, and many information analyses were handed over to Qin Wan to handle. Jiang Junlin trusted her, and Gu Ci never doubted her. She didn’t suspect anyone, but her identity and Dr. North were too special. Gu Ci was afraid that Dr. North, knowing that Jiang Junlin had been nurturing Qin Wan all along, would have other ideas, so she kept them apart.

She also activated Dr. North and sent her to Europe to handle the triad’s dark web affairs. When necessary, Dr. North is Gu Ci’s spokesperson and can issue orders.

There must be someone in charge in Europe, or she won’t feel at ease!

As a result, Dr. North and Qin Wan have not been able to meet.

“Do you have any news from the master?” Qin Wan asked. “The winter vacation is coming soon, and 1 can go abroad to look for his news.”

Gu Ci said, “1 can guess where he is, but it’s not advisable to take action.”

Ji Chi was so crazy, and he had been in conflict with her brother recently, showing no mercy at all. It was bound to aggravate Ji Chi, so he simply locked the person up.

If Ji Chi were further provoked, Gu Ci didn’t know what he would do!

Afterall, they’d tortured each other to death in the past timeline.

“In terms of the people you sent, can we trust them?”

“They can be trusted!” Gu Ci said, “You are a hidden chess piece cultivated by your brother. Unless it’s absolutely necessary, it won’t be activated. So when you execute orders, don’t reveal your true identity.”

“Understood!”

The second triad meeting was about to begin.

Every month, a meeting was held, with Pei Qiuying and Chen Rush! both attending, including several leaders of the dark web. However, all the leaders of the dark web were hidden behind Al, including Gu Ci, and their voices and appearances were processed, so others wouldn’t be able to tell who she really was.

The dark web personnel were all hidden behind the network, and only Chen Rushi and Pei Qiuying were sitting in the meeting room.

In a meeting of eight people, six remained hidden in the shadows. Chen Rushi only discovered after joining the triads that the management system of the triads was so mysterious, and Pei Qiuying was not the ultimate authority in the triads.

Gu Ci listened to the reports from Pei Qiuying and Chen Rushi about the triad’s internal affairs. Pei Qiuying indeed had great skill and was very popular. Having experienced both ups and downs in her life, she understood how to read people and was cautious of Chen Rushi.

The financial power of the triads had always been firmly in her hands, and it wouldn’t be easy for Chen Rushi to share that power.

Pei Qiuying said, “Dark Mistress, Black Hawk and the triads have been engaged in a financial and information war for over a month. It’s been a drain on both sides. How about we consider peace? Ultimately, we don’t have deep-seated enmity with Black Hawk; it’s all old grudges. In the business world, it’s about interests, and there are no permanent enemies!”

“1 don’t agree!” Chen Rushi strongly disagreed with making peace with Black Hawk. He had betrayed Black Hawk to join the triads, and if the triads made peace with Black Hawk, what would be the meaning of his betrayal?

“Black Hawk and the triads have been entangled for many years, all for control of the financial markets. It’s a zero-sum game. If we don’t advance, we retreat. When you negotiate with a tiger, you can’t leave without a scratch. Lu Zhiyuan will seek revenge, and no matter how many people Black Hawk loses and how many assets are gone, he will want them back a hundredfold or a thousandfold.”

This time, Gu Ci understood better than anyone else!

Pei Qiuying said, “Chen Rushi, I know you have old grievances with Lu Zhiyuan, but if we continue like this, the triads may not hold up!”

“That’s not your concern!” Gu Ci’s voice was emotionless through AL “All you need to do is strictly follow my orders. The triads and Black Hawk will never make peace!”

This was a quote from Jiang Junlin’s personal notes that Gu Ci remembered.

In the business world, it’s good to be on good terms to make money. There are no permanent enemies.

But the triads… are not a business matter.

Jiang Junlin had immense power, and Pei Qiuying had always been afraid of the triad’s Dark Master. She didn’t know that there had been a change in leadership behind her, and she had always been cautious of the Dark Master She wanted to gain the power of the dark web but didn’t know where to start. With people masked by Al images, she couldn’t tell if they were male or female and didn’t dare to provoke them.

Jiang Junlin had killed three previous triad leaders, which was not a joke. Each triad leader knew that betrayal meant death, but they still held onto a glimmer of hope.

“Yes!” Pei Qiuying lowered her head obediently.

Gu Ci said, “Pei Qiuying, I need you to come to City A to handle the triad’s Asian market. Europe and America will be under Chen Rushi’s control for now!”

Pei Qiuying was shocked and uneasy. Her foundation was in Europe and America, not in Asia. She had always been responsible for managing the Asian market in cooperation with Jiang Junlin. She couldn’t afford to lose her foundation.

Why was she suddenly being transferred to City A?

Chen Rushi sitting alone in charge of the European and American markets, wouldn’t that make him too powerful?

Was Dark Mistress trying to support Chen Rushi?

“Don’t worry, Dark Mistress. I will ensure Black Hawk doesn’t get a piece of the pie from the triads in any way.” Chen Rushi lowered his head, showing his loyalty. After joining the triads, he had been trying to break free from Pei Qiuying’s control while not offending her. Now, the opportunity had come!

Once Pei Qiuying left for the Asian market, he would be in complete control, and he would eventually absorb and erode Pei Qiuying’s influence.

“How about it, are you unwilling?” Gu Ci asked coldly.

“I dare not!” Pei Qiuying replied, “I’ll depart the day after tomorrow!”

“Very good!” Gu Ci said, “The focus of the triad’s development in the last five years has been on the Asian market. Pei Qiuying, don’t disappoint me!”

“Yes!”

After Pei Qiuying and Chen Rushi left, it was an internal meeting of the dark web. This meeting was much more complex. Gu Ci mostly listened, as she also needed to understand the structure of the dark web. In several meetings, she listened more than she spoke.

Intelligence fell under the Information Science department, and someone was in charge of it. Gu Ci had Qin Wan keep an eye on it. She needed to know everyone’s movements at all times. She was also well aware of the identities of these people.

During each meeting, Qin Wan made records on the side, helping Gu Ci analyze the power dynamics and checks and balances between various departments within the dark web. While Jiang Junlin could command all the departments, he also needed to have a thorough understanding of the entire organization.

It took Gu Ci three days to become familiar with the functions of each department, the balance of power, and the key individuals’ skills and capabilities.

There was hardly any irregularity; all the personnel were handpicked by Jiang Junlin, and they were all exceptionally talented!
