Chapter 311 Open and Honest
"I will establish the core members of the water organization, currently Kate, Xiao Ran, and Zhang Yong."
After Yang Yi said the words that were only hidden in his heart, he looked at Mike and said sincerely: "I don't distrust you, nor do I reject you, but I feel that I am completely unqualified to command you. I respect you. , and I am willing to obey your arrangements and instructions, but I will not treat you as a subordinate, nor do I dare to treat you as a partner that I will never leave, because the water organization cannot do without you, but you can leave the water organization at any time. organize."
Mike whispered: "Go on."
Yang Yi sighed and said: "As for Brian and the others, I regard them as allies because their core interests and pursuits are different. There is no need to say more about the rest."
"continue."
Yang Yi stood up, took two steps in the narrow gap between the beds, then looked at Mike and said: "My little brothers in Mexico are useful, so I will call them here, as well as Bol and Schulz, Shu Ertz is indispensable, but they can only be peripheral members for the time being. I rely on them but I don’t dare to trust them absolutely.”
Mike waved his hand and said, "Specifically, how are you going to use these people you don't dare to completely trust?"
Yang Yi said without hesitation: "Impress them with my sincerity, bind them with benefits, and make them from peripheral members to core members that I can trust. Of course, I must also use some tough and bloody methods to make them dare not betray."
Mike said softly: "For any espionage organization, the importance of prevention definitely exceeds punishment, but prevention means is a means of controlling people's hearts. I don't ask you about this. I only ask you if someone really betrays you. , what will you do?"
Yang Yi bit his lip and whispered: "Kill! In the most cruel way I can think of."
Mike said calmly: "There is another question. If someone wants to quit the water organization, but he promises never to betray the organization, what will you do?"
Yang Yi hesitated. After thinking for a while, he finally said honestly: "I don't know, but I should let him leave. Think about it, if you or Brian or Zhang Yong, if any of you wants to leave, Should I stop the water organization? No, I won't, because I believe you won't harm me even if you leave."
Mike smiled and said in a deep voice: "But anyone can enter but not leave any secret organization. Have you never thought about why?"
"Of course I've thought about it, and I know it, but... I still don't want to stop it."
Yang Yi looked very conflicted, then he spread his hands and said: "I know these principles, but I think if someone is tired and no longer wants to live in the shadows, then he should be given a chance to leave."
Mike looked at Yang Yi who didn't speak but looked thoughtful, and Yang Yi whispered: "I don't know what you think, but if the people fighting alongside me want to leave, I can't stop them. "
Mike was silent for a moment and sighed: "I want to say that your way of thinking is very dangerous. Everyone has their own way of doing it. I won't teach you what to do, but I will tell you my own way for your reference. "
After finishing speaking, Mike said softly: "No one believes what I do. I don't have so-called core members. I try to contact everyone in a single line. I run an intelligence network, and I am the core of this network. As long as I pull away, this network will spread out. I don’t have to worry about someone quitting. Even if someone betrays me, it won’t cause me much loss, so I can pull away immediately when necessary.”
With a long sigh, Mike said helplessly: "I have no choice but to do this, because I am afraid, and because Brian's betrayal has left an indelible psychological shadow on me."
After waving his hand to stop Yang Yi who wanted to speak, Mike continued in a low voice: "Of course, now I know that although Brian is a traitor, he is not the biggest mole. You don't need to remind me."
After finishing speaking, Mike stared at Yang Yi and said very seriously: "I am willing to help you. I don't want to set up another spy organization, nor do I want to continue to be an intelligence agent. I just want to find out that mole. To find justice for my dead comrades and myself."
Of course Yang Yi knew this, so he didn't understand the meaning of Mike talking about it anymore.
Looking at Yang Yi's puzzled expression, Mike smiled softly and said: "Now, it's time for you to establish your own authority. The water organization is yours, not mine. You have the final say in what happens in the future. If you can't do it, To make a decision, you can ask me in private, but your words must become an irresistible will. You cannot establish your own authority when there are only a few people in the water organization. When there are more people, it will be even less possible for you to establish it. Absolute authority."
Yang Yi whispered: "But, is it really good for one person to act arbitrarily?"
"Our approach is different. I don't have so-called core members, but you do, so you can decide on something after discussing it with the people you trust most, but you have to make sure that the decision after you decide is unquestionable, especially the outsiders. Members’ doubts, do you understand what I mean?”
Yang Yi nodded and said: "I understand, there are things that can be discussed, but there is absolutely no room for negotiation when issuing orders. They must be implemented to the end."
Mike took a breath, and then he whispered: "Brian will leave the Water Organization. Since he has helped you kill Bass, Brian has fulfilled his promise to you, and has paid off your favor. From what I know about him, he can't wait to find that woman. Now that we are not firmly established in London, he will ask to leave after we have settled down."
"I know, I didn't want to stop him."
Mike looked at Yang Yi and said with a faint smile: "My suggestion is to let Brian leave now, preferably tomorrow."
Yang Yi was surprised again and said: "Why?"
"It's very simple. As long as Brian is here, you will not have absolute authority in front of the younger brothers in the prison. But this is still secondary. The main reason is that Brian stayed in the water organization to find the woman, and Now we don’t have the energy to help him find her, nor do we have enough means to help him find her. Rather than letting him stay here unable to do anything, it is better to understand this human debt so that he can go find that woman right away.”
Yang Yi thought for a while, and he felt that there seemed to be a deeper meaning in Mike's words.
"It's not just these two reasons, right?"
Looking at Yang Yi's questioning eyes, Mike said in a deep voice: "Yes, Brian is indeed very powerful. Every member of the Pandora Force is very strong. I never deny this, but they are just action members who want to find a It seems impossible to me that Yanzi has disappeared for decades, so I asked them to find it. When Brian lost all hope, the water organization also had a certain strength. By then... you know ?"
