Chapter 1354: The Betrayal
The Thames was still brightly lit, but in Luo Feng's eyes, it had become the setting for a grand drama.
The Shadow Council thought they were fishing, but little did they know that they were the fish that took the bait.
"Mr. Luo, someone is looking for you."
At this time, Lin Naizi pushed the door open and walked in.
Luo Feng was stunned when he heard the other party call him so officially.
It wasn't until he saw the person following Lin Naizi that he suddenly realized.
There was a complexity in White's eyes, greed and a hint of uneasiness.
"Mr. Luo." White said in a low voice, "I'm here to discuss business with you."
Luo Feng raised his eyes slightly and motioned him to sit down.
"We have already discussed the business on the yacht, why are you here again today?"
In fact, what Luo Feng didn't expect was that White actually came back to find him in person. He originally thought that the other party had already gone to the Shadow Council.
"That business is that business. The business I'm talking to you about today is definitely the one you're interested in." White said with a playful smile.
"Tell me what you call business."
Luo Feng made a gesture to Lin Naizi, and then invited White to the living room.
Soon, Lin Naizi brought over two cups of tea and two cups of coffee. He did not ask White what he wanted to drink, but prepared enough.
White licked his dry lips, took a deep breath, and continued: "I can tell you some of the core secrets of the Shadow Council, including their smuggling routes, capital flows, and even some of the Speaker's personal information. But..."
After hearing these words, Luo Feng fell into deep thought. If Lin White could really betray the Shadow Council, then he would have achieved twice the result with half the effort.
He paused, stared at Luo Feng and said, "I want one billion US dollars."
When Luo Feng heard this, a barely perceptible sneer flashed across his face.
This guy is really bold to say one billion US dollars.
Although it must be said that if he can really provide useful information, he may not be unable to get the money.
He leaned back in his chair, crossed his arms, and acted like a master: "Mr. White, you seem to be asking for too much."
White said quickly: "Mr. Luo, you have to know that I am betraying the Shadow Council. Once discovered, I will surely die."
"This information is worth far more than a billion. And with it, you can more easily take control of the situation and even defeat them in one fell swoop."
He had to admit that what White said was indeed correct. Since the Shadow Council had already set its sights on him, Luo Feng must find a way to make them lose the initiative.
But the problem is that the enemy is in the dark and he is in the light, so there is no chance of winning no matter how you look at it.
Luo Feng narrowed his eyes, his gaze as sharp as a hawk, scanning back and forth across White's face, highlighting every expression on his face and the deeper meaning behind it.
White suddenly came to say this to him, which made Luo Feng inevitably wonder whether he was playing along with the enemy, or whether he was sent here to test the waters later.
The business deal negotiated on the yacht was completely improvised by Luo Feng.
The black card with a credit limit that he gave to White can be deactivated at any time without even having to pay a penny.
Otherwise, how could he give such a big gift to the other party for nothing.
This card has been specially tampered with. All funds will stay in the bank account for a short period of time, rather than being directly allocated. This requires review and Luo Feng's consent.
The most crucial point is that if White and the people around him really want to verify the authenticity of this black card, after going to the bank to inquire, the results obtained will be true and valid.
"How do I know that you are not lying to me? What can you use to prove the authenticity of this information?" Luo Feng asked the doubts in his mind.
White gritted his teeth, took out a USB flash drive from his arms and put it on the table, as if he had made some important decision.
"Here is some evidence, a detailed record of their most recent smuggling operation, including the people involved, time, and location. You can ask someone to verify it."
"Mr. Luo, I came here with sincerity. If you don't believe me, you can definitely not drive me away. But since you didn't drive me away, it means you are moved."
White looked like he was sure of Luo Feng. He knew how difficult it was for the Shadow Council to find out internal information.
Even if Luo Feng had an outstanding intelligence organization like Lin Naizi by his side, he might not be able to investigate the details.
Luo Feng reached out and picked up the USB drive, weighed it, but did not check it immediately. Instead, he continued to stare at White, as if he wanted to see through his every expression.
"Even if this is true, a billion dollars is still too expensive to me."
"How about this, we can make a discount or sign an agreement, and I will give you the money after the deal is done."
White was anxious, and his breathing became rapid.
"Mr. Luo, this is already a good deal."
"Any one of these secrets of the Shadow Council is priceless. Moreover, I can continue to provide you with intelligence in the future."
"You know my position is not low. I know things that many grassroots personnel cannot accept. Otherwise, the Shadow Council would not have sent me here to hand over to you."
Luo Feng chuckled and retorted: "Continue to provide information? Who can guarantee that you won't betray us?"
"Besides, I'm not sure how much value this information can bring to me. Three hundred million US dollars, this is my bottom line."
The price has shrunk by nearly 70%. This is a art of bargaining.
White stood up suddenly, his expression becoming even more excited.
"Mr. Luo, you are kidding me!"
"Three hundred million US dollars. I risked my life, and this is all it's worth?"
To put it bluntly, the credit limit of the card that Luo Feng gave him is not much higher.
Luo Feng also stood up, looked directly at White, and said calmly: "White, you have to understand that you are now begging me to buy your information."
"Besides, it's still unclear whether these things you gave me can be used."
"I'm offering 300 million because of our previous cooperation."
As long as Luo Feng always holds the initiative, White will feel uncomfortable.
White paced back and forth, struggling with his inner thoughts.
After a long while, he stopped, his inner struggle over. "Five hundred million, no less."
"Without this amount, I would rather keep these secrets to myself."
Luo Feng was silent for a moment, it seemed there was still room for bargaining.
And for some reason, White gave him the feeling that he was in urgent need of money, but unfortunately he had not received any useful information from Lin Naizi yet.
For the time being, he couldn't tell whether White was pretending or not.
Luo Feng continued to speak slowly, "Four hundred million, this is my final offer."
"If you agree, we can make the deal now. If you don't agree, please do as you please and don't come to me again in the future."
"But don't worry, I will help you with the deal we negotiated on the yacht as usual."
White stared at Luo Feng, trying to find any sign of looseness on his face.
However, Luo Feng's expression was as solid as ice, without any flaws.
Lin Naizi was listening quietly beside them without saying anything, but he was secretly trying to find a way to get a positioning device from White.
Maybe by following White we can find the Shadow Council's lair, and then we can save all this money.
On the contrary, they can follow the clues to find out how the people from the Shadow Council plan to target Luo Feng and the people around him.
Finally, White sighed, and his whole body was like a deflated ball.
"Okay, 400 million is 400 million."
"But you have to pay half of the deposit first. After I give you all the information and you confirm that it is correct, you can pay the remaining half."
Luo Feng nodded and said, "Okay. But you'd better not play any tricks."
"If I find out that you are hiding something or lying, you know the consequences."
After saying that, Luo Feng picked up the phone on the table.
"Finance, prepare 200 million US dollars and transfer it to..."
Before he could finish his words, he suddenly stood up excitedly and the cell phone in his hand rang.
Seeing this scene, Luo Feng suddenly hung up the phone.
White seemed a little uneasy because the call was from the Speaker of the Shadow Council.
Luo Feng winked at Lin Naizi beside him.
See if she can use on-site technology to hear the content of the conversation between the two people and track down the actual location of the caller.
Lin Naizi understood what he meant, quietly stepped aside, turned on the computer, and began to operate the silent keyboard with her fingers quickly.
She turned on the self-developed signal capture program, which has the ability to intercept the call frequency band and track it.
This was her usual method before, helping Lin Naizi steal a lot of important information.
However, there will still be interference with encrypted calls.
White took a deep breath, picked up the phone, and tried to make his voice sound calm: "Hello, Speaker."
A majestic voice came from the other end of the phone, "White, where are you? How is it going?"
"Why do I see that your location is not back in the clubhouse yet?"
White glanced at Luo Feng and said with a stiff upper lip: "Speaker, I am discussing the details of the follow-up cooperation with Luo Feng, and the progress is going smoothly."
Fortunately, there was indeed a high-sounding cooperation plan between the two of them, otherwise he really wouldn't be able to explain why he appeared here with Luo Feng.
"So you were with him, is it safe for you to talk now?" asked the Speaker.
"It's safe for now. He doesn't know I'm on the phone with you. He's working with his secretary to plan a safe channel."
"Don't be fooled by him." The Speaker said coldly: "Luo Feng is very cunning. I have sent you his information and you know it very well. When facing such a person, no matter what you say, you must be careful."
"Regarding that deal, you need to make sure he completes it on time and without any problems."
"If this cooperation is successful, we will have a vested interest in it. Then we can control it and make it our puppet, which will bring us one step closer to our plan."
White quickly responded, "Yes, Speaker, I understand."
"I'll keep an eye on him."
As he said this, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead unconsciously. Luo Feng looked at him with interest. Does the Speaker of the Shadow Council have such a strong sense of oppression?
Through just a brief contact, Luo Feng could feel that White was something.
However, this person acted so nervous in front of their boss, and he really wanted to meet this person.
"Also, the higher-ups have been keeping a close eye on our operations recently, so you should pay more attention to the transportation channels and report any signs of trouble in a timely manner," the Speaker instructed.
"We must not rely too much on Luo Feng's transportation channels. After all, we still have a relationship of use between this person and us."
"Okay, Speaker, I will definitely live up to your expectations." White answered without hesitation.
At this time, Lin Naizi had made some progress. She gave Luo Feng a look, indicating that she had successfully located the source of the incoming call signal.
Luo Feng nodded lightly, with a barely perceptible excitement flashing in his eyes.
He didn't expect everything to go so smoothly, but he always felt that there was nothing wrong with White's performance. On the contrary, the Speaker of the Shadow Council on the phone seemed to have noticed something.
In fact, the speaker on the other end of the phone did notice that White was in a somewhat strange state.
Based on his previous understanding of White, the other party would never give such an official answer.
His tone suddenly became stern, like a presiding judge asking, "White, are you hiding something from me?"
"Or have you done something to offend the Shadow Council?"
White's heart skipped a beat and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead. It was about to rain.
