Spy-x-War Showdown

While Anton reveled inside, Yang Yi and the others were simply waiting in the car outside.

Yang Yi thought a brief appearance by Anton would suffice, but to their dismay, it wasn’t until well after 3 a.m. that Anton emerged from the hotel alone.

Gently nudging the dozing Rodriguez awake with his hand, Yang Yi whispered, "He’s out."

Anton looked somewhat weary.

Anton walked straight to Yang Yi’s car, yanked the door open, tossed his belongings onto the seat, and murmured, "You guys go ahead, I’ll head back at dawn. Also, give me a pack of cigarettes."

Rodriguez’s eyes widened as he whispered incredulously, "You’re not leaving now?"

Glancing at Rodriguez, he said, "There are still two women waiting for me; I can’t leave just yet."

"A quick show of face should’ve been enough, do you really plan to keep up this charade indefinitely?"

Anton replied calmly, "If I didn’t have to frequent the nightclubs anymore, that would be feasible, but if I must, then I need to make sure they’re taken care of."

After speaking, Anton let out a low sigh, adding, "Women are such a hassle..."

Xiao Ran knew what Anton was up to; since everything was for the mission, she had to turn a blind eye to whatever Anton did—after all, for a spy, this was nothing out of the ordinary.
