Spy-x-War Showdown

Yang Yi followed Jethro into a safe house where they met Francois.

Francois entered the safe house with just two men, still somewhat cautious of Jethro. Although the men accompanying him didn’t carry their guns in their hands, the weapons were within easy reach in case anything out of the ordinary were detected and they needed to open fire at a moment’s notice. Moreover, most of the members were left outside, ready to provide backup in case they walked into a trap.

But the ones who entered with Francois were from Deyo’s direct lineage.

"Just a few of you?"

Surprised at Jethro’s meager company, Francois said, "So few of you came with him?" Jethro replied with a helpless expression, "Taking too many people along easily draws attention, buddy. I’m in charge here now, but our current situation isn’t good, you understand, don’t you?"

Francois nodded and said in a deep voice, "Of course, the situation is very bad."

Jethro gestured with his hand and said, "Sit, please sit down everyone. McGregor, have all your brothers arrived?"

A middle-aged man around forty nodded and said in a low voice, "Of course, everyone is waiting outside. I’ve received a call from the boss, and from now on, we will follow your orders."

McGregor was from Deyo’s direct lineage and highly trusted by Deyo. Naturally, such absolute trust came with reasons and a price; both were due to the fact that McGregor and the men he led were completely under Deyo’s control.
