"Good question, Kevin. It is correct that they have spent many resources on this case. However, there is also the problem of location. Don't forget that this is S city, not some western countries. Once the foreign faces of Interpol appear here, it would immediately arouse the suspicions of the criminals. They'll be too conspicuous to be kept a secret. The Interpol does not want the criminals to raise their vigilance, so we have to support them." The commander sighed. It was not his intention to expose his people to such a dangerous mission, but this was an order. As a soldier, he could not display the slightest disobedience. He had to follow the orders and so did his subordinates.
"I understand. So, that's why you're asking us to pretend to be a couple to get close to the targets." Kevin smiled bitterly. He had long been accustomed to such missions. Daisy and he often did it in previous tasks. Before, there had never been a reason not to take up the missions. But he felt differently this time about pretending to be a couple with Daisy. He was married to Leena now.
"That is correct! You two are the most suitable people to play lovers in this army base. Both of you are skilled and experienced too. Besides, you two have worked together on many tasks before and are a good team. This task should not be difficult. Aren't you confident about it like I am?" The commander beamed, not exaggerating a bit. In the entire army base, only Kevin and Daisy were both young as well as good-looking. They were the best candidates for this international mission because they not only satisfied that criteria but were also skilled in foreign language. They were greatly experienced in combats. The commander believed that they would complete the mission successfully.
"Do we need to set out now?" Unlike Kevin's little and sudden moodiness, Daisy did not entertain any emotional fluctuations with regard to this task. She only took it as a new challenge.
"Yes. Of course. As for your get-up, I don't think you need my orders. You young people have your own styles. So go ahead and prepare for it! I'll tell Hawkeyes to assist you on the action in secret." The Commander had always valued them and was at ease leaving the task to them.
"All right. We will get right to it. Wait for us to triumph and return!" Kevin announced, not imagining in his wildest dreams that he would encounter more unexpected things that would almost endanger him, thanks to a momentary loss of his sound mind.
At the same moment, Leena sat opposite Gerard at a posh restaurant in a hotel. Although the atmosphere between them was uncertain and distant, it was much better than before in the car.
