"Why, I can't call you to talk to my best friend??" Ming Ming widened his eyes and held a soft innocent look as she tried to convince Ying Yue.
".....Neo.....what's going on." She rolled her eyes and directly ignored her. Tilting her head she waited for the familiar monotone voice to speak up. She could only see Ming Ming on the screen but she knew Neo was never far behind. When she had moved to this city they had all chosen seperate residences but had one base they would be able to operate out of. She didn't go over too often but Ming Ming and Neo were there almost every couple of days. It was easier to do more technical tasks since they had made it into a military grade facility. Not that it was insanely large but the few things inside were well equipped. There was also a small gym for her to exercise and practice skills she needed to maintain.
"A blue dot appeared on the map, its on the west cost." Neo spoke out as she had expected. His blank face appeared on the screen as he pushed Ming Ming away. He held a neutral expression but there was fondness in his eyes as he spoke to them.
Hearing his words Ying Yue's eyes lit up. She straightened up in her seat and moved closer to the screen. "Which one?" It was vague but they knew what she was referring to. There was a list only privy to their group of four and a personal target list. Each person was coded into three different colour codes red, blue, and white. Red was easy to figure out they were the most dangerous ones. A blue target were middle-men, people who went into hiding, or leads to red. White were part of the cleanup, once their plan was accomplished they would automatically be taken care of. After colour, they were placed in random numerical order so they could reference names and people without really saying anything. If a blue dot appeared then somebody on their list had finally made their presence known.
Slim fingers quickly padded across the keyboard before answering the question. "Blue 47." It took Neo only a couple seconds to assosciate the identity and Ying Yue a couple of seconds to remember who it was. Propping up her feet onto the table she leaned back into the seat and started playing with a jade hairpin. She always kept one in the drawer so she could have something to fiddle with in her hands. As the hairpin moved between her fingers she held a mischevious smile on her face.
"What other details do you have?" She kept her fingers moving as she kept her eyes on Neo. A plan was slowly forming in her mind but she would need all the information first. Tapping in a couple of keys Neo pulled CCTV footage and signal information on the target. "West coast, landed an hour ago and is....currrently with two other people in a room.....hotel room."
"Did you face match the other people?"
"No, didn't grab a clear picture since its late at night but around the same height is all we can tell."
"Mhmm...." This specific target wasn't someone they had to take out immediately, rather use them to gain more 'insider' information. She didn't feel rushed to do anything right now but watch them patiently. "Neo, Ming Ming, keep an eye on them but we should look for any big underground events coming soon. There has to be a reason they reappeared now, if the reward isn't big how dare the rat leave its cave?" There was a mocking tone in her voice as she imagined the greedy man in her mind.
"OKAY OKAY OUT OF THE WAY." Huffing Ming Ming's face reappeared on the screen as she pushed Neo out of the way. She had stayed silent while he gave the initial report but didn't mean she would let him have all the fun. Leaning forward into the webcam she held a sneaky look on her face.
"So....what else is new???" There was a teasing tone as if she knew that the other was hiding something.
".....If that's all I'm heading to bed, let me know about the underground events even the ones that look irrelevant."
"Yeah yeah we know what to do but stop changing the topic! You know what I'm talking about!! Spill the tea hoe."
"I have nothing to say." Ying Yue kept her face straight as she looked at Ming Ming with a fake confused expression.
"LIAR!! NEO LOOK HOW SHE'S LYING TO US!! We literally hunt for information all the time do you think we don't know about you?"
"Are you watching me again? I told you to stop stalking my coordinates." Her eyes turned into smaller slits as she glared at Ming Ming.
"Oh stuff it, what's going on with Mr.CEO over there?? Someone tried to look someone very similar to your specs from his company."
"Mhm i'm aware but also know they couldn't find anything I gave an alias."
"So is he bothering you? Do we need to...'take care' of him." The protective voice of Neo sounded behind Ming Ming as he directed his question at her. It warmed her heart to see her friends be so protective over her, she knew that if she were to say yes they would do their best to get rid of him regardless of how powerful he was.
"Yeah tell us, I'll give him a kick to the groin if he hurts my best friend!" Ming Ming waggled her fist in the air in fake anger.
"He...hasn't really done anything.....just ignore him."
"So what is happening then?"
She had gone through so many henious interrogations and never crumbled but a simple conversation with her friends had her stuttering.
"We're just casual friends, nothing too serious.....just a couple hang outs.....and he stayed over once....but it was raining! But...I think he likes me?" Her cheeks felt hot as she kept looking away from them. The temperature in the room shot up as she felt embarassed from the core.
"HOLD UP HOLD UP, WHAT DO YOU MEAN SLEPT OVER?????"
