Lyna briefed the man about her plan.
"What do I need to deliver?" the man asked timidly.
He was worried that the thing Lyna asked him to deliver would spell trouble for him.
"You don't have to know about what I want you to deliver. I will pass it to you when the time comes," Lyna replied with knitted brows.
Is this really the best person the black market could offer? I mean, look at him, asking all those unnecessary questions! That being said, she knew full well that she should not be fussy at this critical moment. Suppressing her frustration, she told the man, "Don't worry. If you sense anything amiss later, just head for the washroom directly. I will assign someone to get you out from there. I won't let you get arrested. After all, I would also be in trouble if you end up getting detained and leak my name."
Lyna purposely said so to calm him down so that he would be willing to carry out his task without any doubt.
"Alright. I've given you two your assignments.
Now, go wait outside for a while. I'll let you know about the exact time for action later."
Lyna told the two men as she glanced at the woman who was supposed to be her substitute.
Both of the men nodded and stepped out.
"Take off your clothes," Lyna instructed her the moment the two men stepped out.
The substitute asked in bewilderment, "Huh?" "Didn't you hear me? Just take off your clothes.
Now!" Lyna raised her voice, feeling a bit pissed off by her dumbness.
"1-1 don't think this is appropriate," the woman stuttered as she glanced at Lyna, intimidated by her tone.
Meanwhile, Lyna had started taking off her clothes. Seeing this, the woman's eyes widened in disbelief. What is she trying to do by asking me to take off my clothes? And why is she taking off hers? Is she trying to... How disgusting!
Sensing how the woman was looking at her weirdly, Lyna rolled her eyes as she realized at once that the woman must have misunderstood her. However, she couldn't be bothered to explain everything to her. Glaring at the woman, she snapped impatiently, "Stop wasting my time and just take off your clothes!"
