Chapter 420 Behind the Scene

From the bustling streets in the east to the chaotic zones in the west, this place was a forbidden zone for the rule of law. Due to geographical reasons, it was often filled with crime and darkness.

The most dangerous place was also the safest place. With the cooperation of the intelligence network between Withal and Hacker Alliance, Withal finally figured out the location of Red Star’s transaction today.

To investigate the identity of the chief of Red Star, Withal arrived there early and had been camping there, suffering from hunger and dizziness but still not daring to leave the narrow flue pipe.

He had paid a huge price to find out who the chief of Red Star was. The agreed time for the transaction at 7 o’clock was approaching. Withal’s heart began beating faster and faster.

The other party’s forces had already taken their positions and were only waiting for the arrival of Red Star’s personnel. When the clock on the wall hit 7 o’clock, the people from Red Star promptly showed up in the warehouse.

Upon witnessing the meeting between the two sides, Withal was beyond excited. He would soon find out who the chief of Red Star was, and the opportunity to avenge Catherine was just around the corner.

He lay motionless inside the flue pipe, not daring to breathe too loudly. Paxton accompanied Branden to the scene.

“Sir, let me handle it. You can rest in the car. You’ve already personally come here. If they’re still unsatisfied, we can choose not to do business with them.”

To persuade Branden, Paxton cleverly mentioned Catherine.

“What a pity it would be if Miss Swann happened to call you at that very moment and you missed the call!”

No matter how important the business was, it couldn’t compare to a phone call from Catherine. Branden nodded at him, consenting for him to get out of the car to conduct the transaction.

Red Star sent a big shot to show up. Even if the other side wanted to play tricks, they had to weigh their options first. The whole process went very smoothly.

Paxton handed over the location and key for storing the weapons to the other party and instructed them to transfer the payment to the designated account.

The payment and the delivery of goods occurred simultaneously. No one expected that a pair of eyes was watching this massive transaction unfold from the flue pipe above.

Withal had thought that the chief of Red Star would be some intimidating figure. But after seeing him in person today, Withal thought the chief seemed pretty impressive but less scary than he had expected.

For some reason, he always had a feeling that something was off. Only after the completion of the transaction did he leave in secret.

Before coming, Withal specially borrowed an LCD recorder from Hacker Alliance. This recorder hadn’t hit the market yet and only existed within Hacker Alliance. It possessed an enormous storage space and could continuously record for 24 hours.

The most impressive aspect was that its appearance looked just like regular contact lenses on the market. Even the most powerful detection devices would be unable to detect it when placed above the pupil.

This device had been developed by Catherine the year before when she was bored as a form of entertainment. Little did she know it would come in handy now.

Withal saved the photos inside the recorder and sent them to Catherine. Catherine discovered that she had not had the opportunity to answer Branden’s call today. When she returned home, she saw she had missed his call. Just as she was about to call him back, she received a document from Withal.

The data had been highly encrypted. Catherine knew this must be information of the chief of Red Star. She was a little curious about this mysterious enemy, so she decided to look at the information first.

When she opened the email and the photos began to load, Catherine’s eyes instantly turned as cold as ice.

Right after that, a video call from Withal popped up. Catherine casually clicked on it. Once the video call was connected, she could hear the excited voice of Withal on the other end of the phone.

“Catherine, have you seen that guy’s photo? Should I release it right now and catch Red Star off guard?”

“Are you sure you didn’t take the wrong photo?” Catherine asked with a hint of skepticism in her tone.

“Of course not. These are all people from Red Star. Middle Estria has also sent intelligence, confirming the transaction was completed. There’s absolutely no room for error!”

Withal might seem carefree, but he was actually very cautious in his actions. After he left, he didn’t immediately hand over the things to Catherine but went to verify them first.

That was why he dared to confirm the person was from Red Star. However, he wouldn’t dare to question Catherine. Over the years, Catherine had never been wrong. He just had doubts in his heart.

“Catherine, I checked. He is from Red Star. Is there something else going on?”

Catherine glanced at the photo and said coldly, “The person in the picture is from Red Star, but he’s not the chief of Red Star.”

“Catherine, did you already find out who’s the chief of Red Star?” Withal’s voice sounded excited. “Catherine, you’re incredible!”

“What a coincidence! I happen to know him!”

There was a hint of sarcasm in Catherine’s voice. Maybe because Withal was too excited, he didn’t notice it and excitedly asked about the situation.

“Catherine, you actually know him? Why didn’t you take revenge?”

With gritted teeth, Catherine said, ” Didn’t I just find out? This grudge will be settled soon.”

Her cold voice made Withal suddenly feel a shiver running down his spine. He instinctively asked, “Who is it? Who is the chief of Red Star?”

Catherine uttered a name coldly, ” Branden Duncan!”

“Branden Duncan?” said Withal inwardly.

He paused for a moment and almost didn’t react in time.

“Oh my goodness! Isn’t Branden Duncan Catherine’s man?” he thought. After a long while, Withal finally found his voice and hesitantly asked in a trembling voice, “Catherine, what do you plan to do?”

Catherine hadn’t yet thought of it.”

Let’s talk about it later!”

After finishing speaking, Catherine promptly hung up the phone. She took a glance at the photo. The person captured by Withal in the picture was Paxton. Paxton was the personal bodyguard of Branden, like a shadow always by his side.

Catherine had previously fought against the chief of Red Star, knowing Paxton couldn’t reach her skill level. The only possibility was that the chief of Red Star was the boss behind Paxton.

So, it must be the heir of the Duncans, Branden Duncan. Since Catherine escaped from Red Star back in the day, she had never disclosed the details of her experience to anyone.

However, after returning to the base, she did not get out of bed for a month. She had never hated anyone in her lifetime. After all, there were not many people who could trip her up or take advantage of her.

The chief of Red Star was an exception. Catherine had never given up investigating the chief of Red Star over the years.

Her only goal was to avenge the humiliation she had suffered in the past. However, it never occurred to her that the person identified ultimately would be right by her side after all she had been through.

Catherine was lost in thoughts when her phone, which was placed aside, started ringing again. With a slight glance, she discovered that the caller was none other than her arch-enemy.

Catherine picked up the phone, but she did not answer the call. Instead, she hung up and turned her phone on airplane mode.

She was not in the mood to answer the phone now. She needed to carefully consider how to solve the big problem in front of her.
