A week later,
Rose came out of the second-hand shop and bought a cheap car, she found it when she saw a man in the casino lose, and he had to sell the car cheap for millions of dollars. Rose was pleased to test drive a few laps, and she decided to buy it for convenience. Thanks to that, she got information about a legendary street in the heart of magnificent New York.
New York, the most prosperous city in the world, and its dark sides are subtly disguised.
In a peaceful alley in the city's heart, few people think that this is one of the most chaotic places in New York. Here you can know all the information in the world, from ordinary information to highly confidential information, as long as you have enough money. And there's another thing that this place hides so well; it's one of the biggest drug trafficking hubs. Murder and p**********n are all considered normal here because it happens every day; those things have made them famous in the gangster world.
It took Rose a lot of time to get to this place to buy more information about Black's black diamond.
As soon as she reached the beginning of the alley, Rose felt the incredibly suffocating air. She wore a cap that covered half of her face, the person who spoke to Rose only saw her bright red lips, always smiling.
"Pretty girl, what news do you want to buy?" A black man nearly two meters tall asked Rose.
Although Rose was much shorter than the man, her aura was never inferior; she still leisurely toyed with the lighter in her hand, her red lips slowly raised. "Black diamond, where is it?"
Although she didn't look up, Rose realized that the man was a bit surprised by her question, but he was also a professional dealer who quickly regained his composure and made a bid. "1 million."
Rose laughed. "You know how to do business."
The man smiled too, his eyes a little dark as he looked at her. "This is potentially life-threatening news, 1 million is too little for you."
Rose didn't care much; she nodded. "Okay, say it."
Seeing Rose's quick attitude, the man was satisfied, then raised his voice. "Follow me."
The man went first, and Rose followed; soon, her figure was lost entirely in the dark alley.
"The black diamond is currently holding the wealth of Black's castle..." The following information was so severe that the man didn't dare to breathe as he spoke; Rose's face grew darker and darker.
After obtaining the necessary information, Rose immediately left. She strolled on the street, her face thoughtfully thinking about the information she had just bought. What she heard from the black man was not significantly different from what she had heard before, but there were still some points that Rose couldn't understand. High-security places like Black publish such revealing inside information. Specific enough to make Rose ponder, specifically from where the diamond is kept to the time of the watchman's shift.
The treasures of an illustrious family reveal so much confidential information then there is only one theory, Black is luring a prey, possibly her or someone else.
Although Rose can guess, she is forced to take a risk because the time Kyna gives her is only ten days; if, after 10, she does not complete the task, she must return to the organization and forever cannot leave that place.
Rose looks at her phone; today is Saturday, and her time is short, so she will do it tomorrow.
"May God help me." Rose didn't believe in religion at first, but she often saw Belinda doing this before performing a mission, so this time Rose also wanted to believe it once.
Suddenly, Rose's phone rang, startling her. Usually, very few people contact her, but as soon as she hears the ring, Rose can know the caller, and she picks up the phone. "I'm listening."
On the other side was Albert's voice with an urgent look. "Oh my god, you're okay." Then there was a sigh of relief as if he had just released his sorrow.
Rose fiddled with the lighter and asked. "What happened?"
Albert is serious. "I was just passing Kyna's room, and heard from her that a female member of the organization infiltrated Black and is currently under arrest, life or death unknown. I was worried thinking it was you."
"A female member?" Rose frowned, her heart leaping. "How are Belinda these days? Has she left the organization yet?"
"I understand what you're thinking and honestly I'm worried too. Since the day she left, Belinda has been missing. I don't know if she left or not, Kyna didn't tell us anything. According to Belinda's character, if she gets agitated, I'm afraid she'll do something crazy."
"Damned." Rose cursed under her breath. "I will investigate this." After saying that, Rose hung up the phone. She returned to that dark alley again, but this time she couldn't find the black guy from earlier.
Rose went deep into the alley; a female voice rang out. "Hello, little girl. I wonder why a little girl like you would appear in such complicated places?"
Rose tilted slightly; thanks to her specially designed glasses, she could see things clearly in the dark. Standing before her was a wonderful Russian girl in a black dress that hugged her body to accentuate her perfect curves, holding a cigarette about to expire.
"I want to buy news." Rose gets straight to the point.
"Oh, I'm an informant, as long as you have the money, you can know whatever you want." Sexy girl flipping her hair.
"Black recently caught a female thief. Is that true or fake news?" Rose's heart was as hot as fire, just thinking about that female thief was Belinda; she wanted to rush directly to Black.
The girl heard Black and smiled. "This information is correct. Two days ago Black announced that he had caught a female thief coming in with a black diamond. That girl's fate is unknown to anyone, probably already dead."
