"Listen to my explanation." Frank said with a worried look, "This year, the snow fell early in the Casimir region, so the supply of materials to our ship can only be postponed. We really can't come up with such a high commission in a short period of time."

"Is that so?" White Wolf nodded without comment. In winter, snowfall in various places is an uncontrollable event, and it is indeed possible that the supply is stuck.

But what about the high commission? Did Platinum negotiate it?

She glanced at Bai Jin who was feeling sleepy and decided to ask Frank directly: "I remember we didn't discuss the commission amount before."

Frank's face immediately fell, and he looked at White Wolf with an expression of near despair: "Ms. Platinum believes that at least two standard commissions should be paid."

The "standard commission" here is actually not simple. Miss Platinum is a senior assassin in the Helmetless Alliance. She came to Columbia to carry out the mission because she signed a contract with Kal'tsit.

When calculating the commission, Frank thought he could move out of the contract and use the above clauses to save some fees. However, a terrible thing happened.

After checking, he found that Platinum's contract was actually a special task contract, and entrusting the other party to help was completely outside the contract. In other words, the Iron City Office needed to pay the standard commission of a Platinum Lord of the No Heroes Alliance according to the rules.

Not only that, Miss Bai Jin also specifically stated that Bai Lang made the greatest contribution in the mission, so when distributing salaries, it would be reasonable for him to get more than herself.

Expenditure of this magnitude would make even the ship frown when making a decision. The current Iron City office definitely could not afford such a hassle. But if the amount given was too little, what if Miss Platinum was unhappy and told the outside world about it, affecting the cooperation between the two sides? How would he have the face to see Kal'tsit?

"Is the standard commission a lot?" White Wolf asked puzzledly when he saw that Frank looked strange.

Spot, who was leaning against the wall, put down his phone and kindly explained for his boss: "This standard refers to the standard for the Platinum position of the Wuzhou Alliance. The starting point is 200,000 Longmen coins."

Starting from twenty, ten thousand?

The white wolf suddenly felt dizzy.

You know, Miss Bai Jin paid for all her accommodation and travel expenses herself. Was she trying to support a rich woman? Not to mention, she had been living a tight life in order to earn money to go to Tremont.

Frank saw the White Wolf's expression and realized that the other party was also unaware of the situation, so he told him the key information truthfully.

This time, White Wolf was the one who felt embarrassed. She didn't expect that Mr. Frank meant to just swallow his anger. Perhaps that was the rule, but it was too unreasonable.

When Rhodes Island assigned tasks, it gave them a lot of freedom. Theoretically, it would be considered a success if two people could just handle it.

Thinking of this, Bai Lang said apologetically: "Mr. Frank, I didn't know this before. Please wait a moment, I will discuss it with Bai Jin."

She walked over to the sofa, sat down, and gently patted Miss Platinum's shoulder.

Bai Jin opened his eyes dazedly, and when he saw that it was Bai Lang, he hugged one of the other's arms with both hands and murmured, "Have you finished talking? I'm so sleepy, I want to go back to sleep."

White Wolf's face turned red. You have to know that Frank and Spot were in the room. Miss Platinum's appearance could easily lead to misunderstanding.

Fortunately, Bai Lang did it without the others' knowledge, so some details could not be seen by Frank and others. She just wanted to solve the problem quickly, and asked in a slightly flustered tone: "Bai, Bai Jin, can we talk about the commission? I think we should just take the amount we deserve."

Miss Bai Jin yawned and said incoherently, "Yes, I'll listen to you."

White Wolf breathed a sigh of relief, gently pulled his arm free, and turned around to continue negotiating with Frank.

For a moment, she seemed to see a mysterious smile on the other person's face, but it disappeared in the blink of an eye, as if it was an illusion.

Volume 1: Chapter 28: So-called Destiny

After discussing the commission issue, White Wolf casually talked to Frank about his plan to go to Tremont, but received some unexpected news.

The airship to Tremont has been suspended because Tremont's skyport is undergoing a large-scale expansion and construction, which is expected to be completed after the winter.

Even if she traveled thousands of miles over land to Tremont, she could not go to Ursus via cross-border civilian transportation routes. In any case, she had to wait until the construction of the floating port was completed.

This put her in a difficult position. Did she have to stay in the hotel during this period of time?

Frank coughed and said, "If Miss White Wolf doesn't mind, you can stay at the institute first. A large part of our staff dormitory is still vacant."

The office is currently short of staff, and Miss White Wolf is a relative of Angelina, an employee of our ship. She is easy to talk to, so it is perfect for her to stay.

White Wolf didn't think for long before nodding and agreeing. Staying in a hotel was too expensive, and the free accommodation provided by Rhodes Island was certainly more attractive.

The strange thing was that when she told Miss Platinum the news, she lazily expressed her desire to live in Rhodes Island.

Is it true that the work of the Helmetless Alliance assassins is so easy?

It was Miss Furong who welcomed them to move to the office. This was an unexpected surprise for Bailang. The wounded always had a special liking for doctors who had miraculous healing skills.

The staff dormitories of the Cast Iron City Office are similar to those of urban residents. Each dormitory includes a shared living room, several single rooms, and public facilities such as kitchens, balconies, and toilets.

After Bailang and Baijin chose their rooms, Furong left temporarily, saying that she was bored living alone. Now that there was a new roommate, of course she had to buy some ingredients and cook to celebrate.

After thinking for a long time on the sofa, Bailang felt that there were some things he had to discuss with Miss Baijin.

Before, the two of them could be explained as being on the same route, but what about today? Miss Platinum actually moved into the Rhodes Island office as well, which made her start to doubt his motives.

When the words came to her lips, she hesitated again, worried that this question would make the other party unhappy. After thinking it over again and again, Bai Lang finally gritted his teeth and said, "Ms. Bai, Ms. Bai Jin."

"What's wrong?" Bai Jin was sitting on her right. After hearing the voice, he tilted his head and looked at Bai Lang in confusion.

"I, I now know that you are a very important person in the Wuzhou League, and you must have your own things to do. But you have always been by my side and helped me a lot, so, so, I am a little curious..."

Miss Kuranta had guessed what the other party wanted to ask, but she pretended not to know and leaned forward to get closer to this nervous partner: "What are you curious about?"

Bai Lang felt the warmth from Miss Platinum approaching her and heard her increasingly clear breathing. She suddenly panicked. It was not a pleasant feeling as if something special was about to happen but was not happening for a long time. She was extremely worried.

"Oh, so Miss White Wolf suspects that I have some special purpose?" Miss Kuranta's face was full of a teasing smile.

The white wolf nodded subconsciously, then shook his head hurriedly.

"Want to know?"

White Wolf nodded.

"You are so slow." Miss Bai Jin winked playfully, "But I won't tell you."

"I'm back." A cheerful voice sounded from the door, helping Bai Lang out of trouble. She immediately got up to help Furong who was carrying the food.

"Let me tell you, I'm a professional nutritionist in Rhodes Island. I specialize in a variety of nutritious meals. Leave the cooking to me from now on." Miss Furong said confidently.

"Is this too much trouble for you? We can take turns cooking."

"No need to bother. In fact, I like it most when others eat the nutritious meals I make. It's a pity for those guys on this ship. They don't have this blessing when I'm not around."

"Thank you, but Bai Jin and I would feel bad if we always let Miss Furong do these things." Bai Lang insisted on her own idea. She was really embarrassed to trouble others too much.

In fact, it didn't take long for her to realize that she had made an extremely wise decision.

Miss Furong did not insist any more. She then enthusiastically recommended a healthy dining project to everyone, which Bailang did not refuse.

Furong's cooking skills are extremely skilled, and it is obvious that she has been practicing this art for a long time.

"Aren't you a medical operator of Rhodes Island? Why are you so interested in nutrition?" White Wolf asked curiously.

"This is my personal hobby, and I'm better at it." Miss Furong showed a somewhat ashamed expression, "Although the medical knowledge that Teacher Kal'tsit taught me is very useful, I don't master it very well."

"Don't be modest. I have experienced your healing skills. They are really amazing." White Wolf said with a smile, "Can you tell me about your teacher Kal'tsit? I think I have seen her in the newspaper."

What surprised Bailang was that when Miss Furong mentioned Kal'tsit, her eyes suddenly sparkled, as if a torch had been suddenly lit: "If you want to know about Teacher Kal'tsit, just ask me!"

Uh, why does it feel like I met the leader of some celebrity’s fans?

Without being urged by others, Miss Furong almost couldn't wait to start talking, while Bailang listened carefully with the intention of gathering intelligence.

In Furong's words, Kal'tsit has become a synonym for wisdom, bravery, and strategic planning. It seems that she has concentrated all the advantages in the world and anything can be easily solved because of her.

This was inconsistent with what White Wolf had previously speculated. She had always thought that Kal'tsit was the secretary or follower of Rhodes Island's leader Amiya. Of course, she certainly didn't dare to say this speculation out loud, otherwise Miss Furong in front of her would probably eat her up, as she looked like a completely fanatical fan.

It seems that Rhodes Island's intelligence needs to be further collected, and what appears on the surface may not be true.

Not long after, the nutritious meal was served on the table. When White Wolf saw the colorful food on the table, he couldn't help feeling a little scared.

Are these things really meant to be eaten? They look too weird.

Furong happily pointed to the most colorful dish and introduced it, "This is a salad made with twelve kinds of vegetables. It is the best dish of this time. Come on, everyone, try it."

Bai Lang took a spoon and began to taste it carefully. Miss Bai Jin was more hesitant. She looked at Bai Lang, hoping to know some useful information.

Ok? !

The taste is a bit subtle!

As the salad melts in your mouth, the feelings of sweet, salty, sour and spicy appear in turn. A normal person probably wouldn't like this.

White Wolf noticed that Miss Kuranta was looking at her, and guessed that she wanted to decide whether to eat it based on her evaluation. She subconsciously wanted to use her eyes to help her avoid danger.

But at this moment, a sudden resentment arose in Miss White Wolf's heart. She remembered that the other party always teased her with words, which made her very embarrassed every time.

You can take this opportunity to retaliate!

"It's delicious." White Wolf commented with satisfaction.

"Wow, Miss White Wolf also thinks it's delicious? Finally someone took the initiative to praise the food I cooked. I'm really, so happy." Miss Furong stood up in surprise.

Seeing this, Bai Jin was relieved, picked up the spoon, and added half a bowl of colorful salad to his bowl.

Under the expectant gaze of the White Wolf, Miss Kuranta took the first bite of the salad. Her expression changed several times in a very short period of time, and finally she nodded: "It's really delicious."

White Wolf was extremely happy. The pleasure of revenge was much greater than she had imagined. However, her happiness did not last long.

Bai Jin picked up his spoon and kindly scooped a large spoonful of colorful salad for Bai Lang: "Eat more, Miss Furong's cooking skills are really good."

White Wolf's smile froze on his face.

Miss Furong was delighted when she saw this harmonious scene. It was the first time she saw someone like something she made so much.

Moreover, the relationship between the two people in front of me is really harmonious.

"It would be great if my sister and I could be like this!"

She gradually immersed herself in fantasy, with a happy smile on her lips.

……

At this moment, in a wasteland in the north of Ursus, Tallulah was looking for the whereabouts of the Patriot. Her original intention was to find the White Wolf indirectly by looking for the Patriot, but after asking around along the way, she was surprised to find that Bozhuocasti was exactly the person she was looking for!

Miss White Wolf, is this fate?

……

Volume 1: Chapter 29: Cooperation Model

Time flies by, and spring is here in the blink of an eye.

During the two months in Iron City, White Wolf almost became a formal employee of Rhodes Island. She would take on a few missions every few days and then run around as a Rhodes Island operator.

Most of the missions were related to the Iron City Police Department, either combating criminal gangs or capturing bounty hunters with a reward, which gave her the illusion of becoming an auxiliary police officer in Iron City.

During this time, Bai Lang became more and more grateful that Miss Bai Jin was by his side.

Although she is very good at swordsmanship, she lacks practical experience, which leads to various accidents during missions. Miss Platinum never helps her directly, and will only suddenly take action to resolve the crisis when things reach the most critical moment.

After experiencing many severe tests, White Wolf's fighting skills improved rapidly and he needed help less and less.

In addition to swordsmanship, her Originium skills have also made great progress through constant practice, with the intensity of Originium and the accuracy of control greatly improved.

In order to test the strength of the Originium skills, White Wolf specially invited Rhodes Island's shield guard Spot to assist. Unfortunately, after training with her several times, this guy ran away when he saw her, showing great resistance.

In addition to her own training, she also follows the latest international news.

However, most of the news in the newspapers were gossip that was hard to tell whether it was true or not. The editor used exaggerated words that made her feel like she had seen it before, such as:

Shocked! An organized armed group of infected people is suspected to have appeared in northern Ursus!

Big news! Raytheon Industries and Kalan Trade have reached in-depth cooperation!

Just now! Rhine Life's new project announced the expansion of recruitment scale!

……

These news have little direct significance to White Wolf now. What she has been paying close attention to recently is the airship to Tremont. This route was finally opened again not long ago, and it is time to set off.

She and Bai Jin had already booked the airship tickets for two days later, but that evening, Frank suddenly found them because of something.

In the conference room of the research institute, Platinum was lying on the table, flipping through Rhodes Island's popular science book out of boredom, while White Wolf was sitting opposite Frank with a serious expression.

Frank took out a gray letter and said, "I asked you to come here this time because I have something to discuss. The first thing is about Miss Platinum. Miss Platinum?"

Bai Jin pointed at Bai Lang indifferently: "Tell her if you have any mission."

Frank sighed and said helplessly: "This is a letter sent from the Great Knight Territory - 'Cavalleriaki' to Rhodes Island. Ms. Kal'tsit asked me to pass it to you."

Miss Kuranta, who had been lazy, sat up suddenly and her face turned extremely bad.

"Ms. Kal'tsit said that the first round of cooperation between your organization and Rhodes Island has come to an end for the time being. This letter should be written to you by someone from the No Helmet Alliance."

"I understand." Miss Bai Jin stood up sickly as if she had lost her soul, grabbed the letter in her hand, and sat down motionless.

Bai Lang touched the other's forehead with concern: "Bai Jin, are you okay?"
