Chapter 1012 - 117: Full Set for Acting
To catch, they pretend to release; to release, they pretend to catch. The mastery of its application lies in one’s heart.
Every person’s acting can be off the charts, whether it’s internally or externally; the CIA’s acting skills surely surpass Hollywood, and a spy’s acting surpasses that of an actor.
If an actor acts poorly, they’re only criticized, but a poor performance from a spy can be lethal. Therefore, those spies who survive natural selection and remain are the best actors in the world.

Yang Yi felt he could buy some more time, mainly to probe Aaron’s true intentions, but to his surprise, less than two hours after he issued the instruction to fully engage Nicholas, Walter called him once again.

"You... Let’s talk when you come back. I’m sorry to interrupt your learning plan, but you really need to come back."

Walter sighed deeply and said in a heavy tone, "Pal, some things are not up to me to decide. I’m truly sorry."
Yang Yi was silent for a long time before he spoke softly, "I understand, thank you."
