"I didn't expect Xiao Shi also likes to watch palace fighting dramas." Cai Shi also happily joined in teasing Xiao Shi.
"I don't like watching it! No, I do like it, but that's not what I meant just now. It's winter, winter, winter!"
Masha looked at Leningrad in the distance with a thoughtful expression.
The League Secretary: "Don't really want to steal. Although there is a girl who supports you in carrying out this stupid behavior, I will still stop you!"
"But, have you forgotten what you said before, that as long as I recruit a real girl who can dance Kagura, you will accompany me to steal back the Ise Shrine?"
"Uh...eh? I think I really said that." The league secretary blinked, "Ahahaha, Xiao Shi, do you want Ise Grand Shrine or another shrine? We can steal it back and put it in Wonderland."
Xiao Shi was stunned: "What? You...eh? Are you really planning to steal? I thought we were a righteous organization..."
Hongye also popped her head out of the car and looked at the lights of Leningrad in the distance. When she heard what Xiaoshi said, she smiled and said, "Whether it is just or not does not conflict with whether it is stupid or not. This is an anti-hero, an anti-hero."
Huahua tugged at Hongye's sleeve: "I think the meaning might be a little different."
"Is that so?" Xiao Di responded while glancing inside the carriage, then asked, "Miss Shelley isn't going to come out for some fresh air?"
"She probably didn't come out because she thought that if she was photographed, her absence could be explained as us driving out for fun. If she was photographed with us, it would be exposed."
It is estimated that Shelley not only did not take the initiative to come out, but also held back Tang Yingqiu who definitely wanted to come out and join in the fun.
"We've almost gotten enough fresh air, that's all for today," Masha said, raising her voice, "Save a fast travel point and go back to sleep!"
Xiao Shi was still a little unsatisfied: "Are you really not going to the city to take a look? Oh, by the way, isn't there a Chinese saying: Since you're already here..."
Masha patted Xiaoshi on the shoulder and said, "Let's go. There will be opportunities in the future."
Chapter 397: The Fraudulent Shadow Organization (Part )
The next morning, Masha was woken up early again and trained hard.
Then came the military training. Before going out, Masha wrapped a bandage around his hand to pretend he was injured - after all, he had said during the live broadcast yesterday that his hand was injured and he couldn't cook.
When he arrived at school, Masha clearly felt that everyone's initial excitement had worn off, and the attention he and his international harem received among his classmates had dropped significantly.
The boys began to discuss the senior sister who came to the dormitory yesterday to distribute flyers. Perhaps compared to the swan meat that only the top scorers in the college entrance examination could eat, most people suddenly felt that they should be more down-to-earth and just eat some goose meat.
After a while, I guess even wild duck meat won’t be a problem anymore.
It is said that some boys majoring in "monk" will eventually evolve to the point where they require "female, alive" partners.
For example, the navigation and marine engineering majors in various maritime universities.
However, although the attention level decreased, when Xiao Shi came to distribute herbal tea, the faith value still increased by more than 100.
In the evening, Xiao Shi’s cooking live broadcast once again gained more than a thousand followers - a lot more than yesterday, but still less than two thousand.
After closing, Masha asked Xiao Shi to dance the Kagura dance in front of everyone again. This time, it only reduced 500 faith points. Masha clearly felt that his physical fatigue was reduced.
But his personal feelings didn't count, so he asked everyone: "Do you feel relaxed?"
"Yes." Qianxun was the first to give an affirmative answer. "I think this may be a buff that reduces fatigue for the entire group. What do you think, Zhizhi?"
The league secretary was obviously too lazy to correct the name and answered directly: "I think so too. Although I am not particularly tired today, after Xiao Shi's dance, I feel full of energy."
Masha glanced at the other girls, and they all nodded in agreement with the League Secretary's statement.
"500 faith can activate a group fatigue reduction buff," Masha said while recording it in his notebook. "Speaking of which, does this count as paying for stamina?"
"Is the gravel regaining its sanity?" Cai Shi added.
"You've played Arknights too much." Masha laughed, then he looked at Shelley, "Today we will pass through Eastern Europe and head straight to West Germany. Shelley, are you sure you have connections in West Germany that can be useful to you?"
"Of course, and I think they would be happy to do some business with Ying. Haven't you always wanted to know the situation in the Soviet zone?"
"Yes." Masha nodded, "Thank you for your help. Let's go."

West Germany.
When Mary returned to her house that day, she found that the small mechanism on the door had been tampered with - this meant that the person who came was Mary's acquaintance and knew the characteristics of the mechanism she set.
However, even if they are acquaintances, you still have to be careful.
Maybe the Stasi discovered that she was secretly selling information that the Stasi did not allow her to sell, and sent someone to deal with her.
Mary took her makeup bag in her hand. Women in this industry usually hide guns or gun-like things in their makeup bags, such as poisonous crossbow arrows that can be used at close range.
She entered carefully and turned on the light.
Mary breathed a sigh of relief when she saw someone sitting on the sofa.
"It's you, Shelley. So you really have come back to life?"
"Yes, Dr. Shadow has the power to reverse life and death, but the conditions for using it are very harsh. If you attack me with that gun, I probably won't survive." Shelley said while sitting on the chair.
Mary secretly wrote down several key words in this sentence.
"Shelley, just stating the name of the leader within your organization does not count as an exchange of information," Mary said as she walked to the cabinet in the living room and started making tea.
"This is just the appetizer." Shelley crossed his fingers and placed them on his stomach - when negotiating with a spy, it was basic etiquette to ensure that both hands were within sight of the other party.
"So, what's the main course?" Mary asked, pouring water from the keep-warm kettle into the teapot.
"Let me tell you our request first. My master wants intelligence from the Soviet Union..."
"I heard he was looking for something codenamed quartz glass?"
"Those were false intelligence deliberately released to the outside world. There is no intelligence agency that cannot see through this, right?" Shelley asked with a smile.
"So, what are you really looking for?" Mary brought the tray, teapot and cups over and made tea for Shelley. "This information is very valuable now. Many people are offering high rewards, so there are gossips made up by low-level information dealers everywhere. I heard that someone actually got the money, but I don't know if he will live to spend it."
Mary looked at Shelley expectantly.
**
Shelley smiled at the intelligence dealer, double-faced - no, multi-faceted female spy, with whom she had cooperated several times, and said, "It depends on your sincerity."
Mary took out a lady's cigarette, the long and thin kind, lit it up, took a puff, and then blew out two circles before saying, "Before, the whole world went crazy looking for information about your Shadow Organization, but in the end, they came back empty-handed.
"So the intelligence agency split into two factions. One faction believed that the Shadow Organization was simply a newly established superpower organization, while the other faction firmly believed that the reason they couldn't find any intelligence about you was because you were an ancient organization that had been hiding underground for many years.
"Don't look impatient. This is a brief introduction. The KGB agrees with the latter view because the CIA agrees with the latter view. Therefore, the KGB has led a series of operations to eliminate ancient cult organizations."
Mary took another drag on her cigarette and blew out smoke rings again.
She looked at the rising smoke rings and continued, "Then the KGB's operations in Romania were suddenly given a higher level of secrecy."
Mary paused here deliberately.
Shelley laughed, “That’s why I was sent to the Soviet Union.”
Mary also laughed and said, "Shelley, refusing to pay is not a good habit. You must also know that after that, a freight train with its driver replaced by a KGB agent left Romania for the heart of the Soviet Union?"
Shelley shook his head: "No, we don't know that. Where is that train going?"
"What is hidden behind the quartz glass?" Mary asked.
Shelley threw out the answer that Masha had prepared: "Nine Cauldrons. In China, whoever gets the Nine Cauldrons gets the world."
Masha said why this answer was used:
He did not want to look for the Nine Cauldrons, but the Nine Cauldrons did exist, and they were a very powerful thing. This made the whole world think that Ying was looking for the Nine Cauldrons. Once the World Government really found one of the other Nine Cauldrons and discovered that it was the key prop for the spiritual energy seal and the current spiritual energy revival, the World Government’s judgment of Ying would definitely make many mistakes.
Sorry, the real purpose of the film is to amuse you!
Shelley looked at Mary, but she was a top-notch female spy, a socialite in her 30s. It was impossible for a young girl like Shelley to get any information from her expression.
But it doesn't matter.
The key to intelligence negotiations is to convince the other party that you are very important - this is what Mr. W taught us.
Shelley believed that he was now important to Mary.
At this time, Mary spoke up: "If the tripod you are talking about looks similar to the ones I saw in the British Museum that they took back from China, then you have asked the right person. This is what the Soviets brought back from Romania."
"So where was it taken?"
Mary shook her head: "I can't tell you this information, but if your Doctor Ying is willing to meet me..."
"This is impossible. Find out your identity. Dr. Ying is not someone a lowly person like you can meet." Shelley made a scary expression.
**
As for Marsha, he had actually been listening to Shelley's situation with a headset. Although he couldn't hear what Mary said, he could guess the whole conversation through Shelley's words.
——Since Shelley is threatening others, let’s give her a hand.
Thinking this, Masha equipped Shelley with appearance props: six pairs of chicken wings.
**
Mary looked at the six wings that suddenly appeared behind Shelley in shock.
The wings were bathed in holy light.
There is no doubt that the wings represent holiness and authority.
Mary crossed herself.
"So, Dr. Shadow, is it Christ himself?" she asked.

I couldn’t hold on yesterday and have been unconscious ever since... Looks like the reward will have to be postponed for a day.
I'll see if I can get 16 chapters today.
I still owe you two more chapters after the explosion...
Chapter 398 Yellowstone National Park: Is It My Business Again? (Second Update)
Shelley: "I am under no obligation to tell you. I have said enough. Where was the tripod sent to?"
As she spoke, the wings behind Shelley disappeared, as if she had folded them up of her own volition.
Mary stared at Shelley for a few seconds and said, "Kazan, the Soviets have built a research institute for superpowers in an underground nuclear bunker there. But I have to make it clear that I don't have any confirmed information that the thing is in Kazan. I only know that the train goes directly to Kazan without stopping in between."
"That's enough. We'll go and confirm it. By the way, tell me the train's departure station as well."
"Of course, wait a moment."
Mary stood up and went into her study. A moment later she came out with a USB drive and threw it to Shelley.
"Inside is the train's departure station and route. As a bonus, there are also locations where the Soviets fought against the cult. In one location, the Soviets were stationed there for several days and also moved some troops there. This is all intelligence that can be obtained by asking the locals. I think the CIA and MI6 have more detailed information."
Mary's last sentence was obviously a mockery of Shelley.
But Shelley ignored her amateurishness, picked up the USB drive and stood up, then as if he suddenly remembered something, he said to Mary: "The situation in the Soviet Union seems to be very bad. Have they awakened a lot recently?"
"It seems that you have been in the Soviet Union recently." Mary smiled, "Is this a gift? I remember... you don't speak Russian, right?"
I don’t speak Russian, so I have a translator and other support staff—Mary’s subtext is actually quite easy to understand.
Shelley gave Mary a meaningful smile and walked towards the door.
Mary looked at her and said, "I have been watched. When you leave, remember the skills your teacher taught you."
Shelley: "Don't underestimate us, Shadow."
After saying that, she opened the door and left.
Mary took out the intercom from the secret compartment on the side of the sofa where she was sitting. "Attention, a woman just left. She is about meters tall, with blonde hair and big breasts. Follow her."
"Yes." The person on the other end of the intercom responded immediately.
The mechanisms on Mary's door were actually just a trick. A multiple spy like her was not fully trusted by any intelligence agency. If she had only relied on those mechanisms to protect herself, she would have died on the streets countless times.
A moment later, the intercom rang: "We didn't see anyone leaving."
"No?"
"Yes, no one is leaving from any of the exits."
"…What about surveillance?"
"I've checked it. There was indeed a girl who met your description and entered the stairwell. The surveillance showed that she went down to the first floor and then disappeared."
"Search the first floor." Mary said decisively.
