Chapter 91 - The Core Team

An hour earlier...

Doctor Kirena, a female doctor who keeps watch of Cathy's condition, went straight to her office to rest. She had prepared herself to be on standby for twenty-four hours to make sure her patient could survive. 

Kirena did not know if her patient would survive or not, but she has been given the task of keeping and making sure Catherine's heart keeps beating. If Catherine had heart attacks three times, the final act would have to give the young girl the antidote. 

This antidote formula would directly neutralize all RM mixed in Catherine's blood cells. Automatically, Catherine would no longer see the memories she hadn't remembered for a long time. And the heart would also be beating normally without any disturbance or fear of excessive hallucinations.

Kirena did not know why the higher-ups had given her such a task, and it was the first time she was familiar with a prescription called RM. But since this was her mission, she would do her best.

Kirena closed the door to her office after turning on the light so she could see. As she turned around, she was shocked to step back and made her back hit the door when she saw a dark-haired man with a terrifying gaze sitting cross-legged on her sofa.

The man was playing with the knife by turning it with his fingers. The man was not afraid that his hand would be injured even though his eyes did not look at his hand at all but stared at Kirena sharply.

Kirena felt like she had seen this young man and was trying to dig into her memory. Then she remembered something. Isn't this person one of the higher-ups in LS? Why is that person in her office? Is it possible...

Kirena had not had time to continue her thoughts when she felt a sound and a gust of wind right next to her ear. Apparently, the knife that the man's hand had played with had flown towards her and stuck the door behind him... to be precise, right next to her ear.

If she shifted just a little, Kirena would definitely touch the sharp object, and her ears would be injured. Her heart was racing, feeling like she almost died from the knife throw. Now she understood the meaning of that person's terrible gaze. The man who was still seated in his place seemed to want to kill her right now. Will she be killed? Will she die young? She was still twenty-seven!

Her forehead was getting wet from her cold sweat, and her legs felt weak because she couldn't escape from that person. In the end, Kirena fell and sat on the floor with her back against the door.

"Oh? You seem afraid to die?" the person sneered with a sly smile.

Kirena's eyes widened when she saw the man pick up another knife and once again played the knife with his skillful hand. Is... that man going to throw the knife at her? Will he throw it right in the face this time?

"I had no idea that the person who was sent to deal with Catherine was a coward. Are you really from the L team?" The man's tone was so cold that Kirena's body shuddered.

Kirena has never dealt with members of the LS core team before. She only joined LS two years ago because one LS leader saved her. She felt indebted to this person, and when she was offered to join, she accepted it voluntarily. Unfortunately, she did not expect that there would be someone like this in the LS secret organization.

She never met this man in person, and she rarely met other team members. But Kirena once had accidentally seen this person's photo... the person in front of him is now the core team leader, the S Team.

"I... no... I... I'm not from the L team. I'm from the NE team." Kirena stuttered with fear of the knife that the man was still playing skillfully.

LS has many hundreds of teams spread around the world but only has three core teams who played an essential role and knew LS's biggest secret. Team L, team C, and team S.

Team L manages the underworld like a mafia or infiltrates opponents' lair in disguise. Team L handled all dark and dirty work under Lest's command. This team was also one of the elite bodyguards to protect Paxton's throne.

Team C was in charge of Paxton's assets' business and management. Once the Stealth satellite was active, Team C would undoubtedly control the world's economy. Team C has no right to interfere with what L Team was doing, and vice versa.

The last one was the S Team, the team that took care of both of them and has the right to interfere with the other two core teams' decisions. This team must master martial arts and had comprehensive insights. A determined successor to the throne of Paxton would join this team. Now the team was led by one of Chloe's kids.

Meanwhile, the other team was just a team that was only on guard and had to be ready twenty-four hours to carry out any orders from the three core teams. One of them was the N team or newbie ~ beginners. This team only consisted of people who have just joined or whose loyalty has not been tested.

Team N had five levels from the highest level to the bottom; NA, NB, NC, ND, and NE. Of the hundreds of teams, NE was the most underestimated team. Not only weak but also could be discarded at any time by the leadership of the LS. In other words, NE was trash.

"The NE team?" one eyebrow of the team leader rose to his feet as if he couldn't believe what he had just heard. "They Attended my sister's safety to NE Team!?"

Kirena shuddered in fear at the man booming sound, and her eyes never left the knife which had stopped moving. She was worried whether the knife would be thrown at her a second time? She was afraid if she had to confront a knife flying right at her face.

She wished she wouldn't die today.
