Chapter 461: The Mystery of the Spy (Part 3)
"Where did they go?"
In a room in the manor, Benjamin turned his head to look at a female agent and asked. Kayla hesitated for a moment and then said: "The agents didn't find their tracks. It is suspected that they might have left the main building of the manor."
"Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on them?"
"They used a little trick to shake off our agents. They don't look like they are going to investigate the spy at all."
"Of course I know." Benjamin's tone was still very low, but he didn't have the anger of being played. He said: "Because I didn't intend to appease the crowd either."
"But..." Kayla paused, her tone a bit anxious: "Now, the snow is getting smaller and smaller. Many people have said that helicopters can take off. They are even planning to forcibly storm the main gate and then go to take the helicopter to leave."
"They don't have a chance to do so. I have already sent people to the roof of the building next door. Those helicopters will never be able to fly again."
Kayla frowned. She walked to Benjamin's side and wanted to persuade him: "Benjamin, I know you want to find that spy and also want to take away the treasure underground. But taking such coercive measures might meet with very fierce backlash."
"The residents here not only have those media people, ordinary entrepreneurs, and distributors, but also many politicians, and even a state senator from Kansas. If this group of people collectively pressures us, we might not be able to hold on."
"Do you think I would do such an uncertain thing?" Benjamin asked back. Kayla kept frowning, but she also couldn't figure out Benjamin's mind. She said: "Although your action style has been relatively tough in the past, this time it is a bit too tough. What exactly is your reliance?"
"Before coming here, I already knew who the spy was."
Kayla suddenly opened her eyes wide. She looked straight at Benjamin and said with some disbelief: "What did you say???"
"Then why are we here? Why don't we go directly to arrest him?"
"Why don't you listen to the spy's identity first?"
Benjamin walked back behind the desk. At this time, the door was suddenly knocked. Kayla turned her head. Hearing the rhythm of the knock was a pre-arranged secret signal, she said directly: "Please come in."
A relatively young agent walked in, holding a briefcase in his hand. He saluted Benjamin and then said: "Boss, the helicopters have all been destroyed, and the things have also been brought over."
After speaking, he walked up, handed the briefcase to Benjamin, saluted again, and then left.
Kayla let her gaze fall on the briefcase in Benjamin's hand. Seeing Benjamin pull out a file bag from it, after opening the file bag, Benjamin pulled out a document from it and read on it:
【Author's Note: "One Sword Sovereign"】
"Alfred Pennyworth, born into the hereditary butler family, the Pennyworth family, lived in London for generations, attended Eton College in middle school, and was admitted to King's College, Jianqiao University with extremely excellent grades."
"Because of his excellent grades, in his sophomore year of university, he was specially recruited by the British MI6 and became an MI6 Section D agent."
When hearing keywords like "Jianqiao University" and "MI6," Kayla's face had already become very strange. Benjamin put down the document and then said: "I think you should be a bit familiar with this resume, perhaps you just learned about a person with a very similar experience on the radio just now..."
"Kim Philby." Kayla slowly spat out a name.
Also graduated from Jianqiao University, also specially recruited by MI6, also entered Section D for foreign intelligence work...
But Kayla still felt that this was a bit imprecise. She said: "In MI6, there should be a few real British agents, right?"
Looking at Benjamin's eyes, Kayla suddenly hesitated again: "... There are, right?"
"Indeed, these experiences alone are not enough to judge that he is a Soviet spy, but what really exposed him was that he once appeared at the wrong place at the wrong time."
Kayla looked at Benjamin, waiting for his main text. Who knew Benjamin said: "That is not something your security level can know."
"I can only tell you that going to the Wei En family to become their butler was not Alfred's first time coming to Cat Getan. When he was young, he had been active in Cat Getan and was involved in a case that has not yet been declassified."
"That case involved many people, including Carmine Falcone, the godfather who is now famous in Cat Getan, and Daniel Christopher, a famous missionary who was once known as the 'Glory of the East Coast'."
"But I still don't understand, the butler of the Wei En family, Pennyworth, might be a Soviet spy, so why don't we go to Cat Getan, but come here?"
Kayla just asked this question, and she thought of the answer herself. What else could it be? Wanting to run to someone's door to catch someone's butler, the Wei En Group would not agree no matter what, and Cat Getan was the base camp of the Wei En Group, and agents couldn't get any good there.
Then, Benjamin added more details.
"We once sent agents into Cat Getan. The agents who luckily escaped back told me that it was completely a paradise for madmen, like a huge quagmire. The Central Intelligence Agency didn't want to be dragged into it."
"And according to our intelligence, the old Wei En couple died young. When they died, Bruce Wei En was still young, and he was almost raised by his old butler Pennyworth, and he had a deep affection for him."
"Besides that, you also saw before that Bruce is not at all the playboy he pretended to be. He has excellent skills, and even fought with more than a dozen agents, and he is definitely not as stupid as he looks on the surface. He might be extremely smart."
"What do you think created all this?"
Kayla thought about it. According to the thinking of ordinary people, she reached a conclusion. She said: "It wouldn't be that Pennyworth has been cultivating him, right?"
"It should be like this, otherwise there is no way to explain why he would master so many fighting techniques, and even specially create a disguised image for himself."
"He has very likely been molded into our enemy by Pennyworth, and the reason he chose to disguise himself is to reduce the possibility of us seeing through him. After all, who would suspect that a playboy with a strong American style is a Soviet spy?"
"That is to say, now Wei En and his butler are already standing on the opposite side of us?"
"That's right. Because of this, we set up such a trap. The Central Intelligence Agency must never tolerate the leader of the Wei En Group colluding with the Communists. Once he wants to cause destruction, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Benjamin sighed, looked out the window, raised his tone, and then said: "Bruce Wei En needs a reasonable cause of death."
"The Central Intelligence Agency wants to kill him, but can't use ordinary assassination, and the agents can't exert their strength in Cat Getan, so we must lure Bruce out."
"After luring him to Metropolis, we will trap him in the name of searching for spies. If he dies, we will push his cause of death to the Soviet spy, and then it will be justified."
"On the other hand, Pennyworth might be the person who mastered the Philby list. Besides that, he also had contact with that case many years ago and might know some information, so he cannot die."
"Let's kill Bruce Wei En, the only leader of the Wei En family, first, and then it will be easy to catch Pennyworth. He is already old, and without the protection of the Wei En family, he will have nowhere to escape."
"The only problem is, how are we going to kill Bruce?" Kayla asked with some confusion. She said with some difficulty: "I also saw his performance fighting with the agents in the corridor before. Honestly, he shouldn't have such high-level fighting skills at this age."
"I didn't intend to collide with him head-on. Even if I could beat him, didn't you notice that the Clark who suddenly popped out has abilities different from ordinary people?"
Benjamin raised his eyes, his face a bit gloomy. He said: "The Central Intelligence Agency actually knows about the secret experiments conducted by the previous mayors of Metropolis in the basement of the manor, but we don't have law enforcement power within the Federation, and this is not our business."
"The only thing that can be known is that the mayor who created this laboratory has some tricks. He is not an ordinary person."
"The laboratory he created is not an ordinary laboratory. Even Lionel can learn about the treasure underground, so why has no one successfully entered it for so many years?"
"Or rather, someone entered, but couldn't come out."
Benjamin said so, and Kayla understood. He wanted the mantis to stalk the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
If Bruce entered and didn't come out, he could directly report it as missing. If he died of serious injuries, he could also push it to the Soviet spy. If it was just a minor injury, then the injured Bruce couldn't escape the agents waiting at the exit.
"If according to what you said, they have disappeared for a period of time, then I think they should have found the entrance and should have walked in by now."
"Now..." Benjamin tapped the table and looked at Kayla. Kayla saluted him, and then Benjamin issued the order directly:
"Mobilize all manpower, search the first floor like a carpet. After finding the entrance, stand by on the spot. Everyone is on level one alert, bullets loaded."
Benjamin's face was very serious, with a hint of ferocity in the gloom, just like the leader of all spy agencies, his voice was colder than the heavy snow all over the sky outside the window:
"No matter who walks out of there, empty the magazine." ===== CHAPTER 462 =====
