Chapter 2481 Cutting Operations And Decrypted Message

The operation in the middle of the night went rather well for Lin Mu and his companions. But it was the most unfortunate day for the Cloak and Dagger hall, for their entire operation had been found.

In there, Lin Mu had apprehended the man whom the Great Dagger had referred to as the 'Prime Dagger'. He was apparently one of the two founders of the entire organization and was none other than Kou Bian, the brother of Lord Kou Tua.

On the other hand, the other founder, titled as the 'Prime Cloak' was simply the Overseer of the Nine Pleasures Entrancement Pavilion above. She was the one in charge of all the courtesans and had a somewhat public front as Madame Silk.

The entire Cloak and Dagger Pavilion was divided into two main divisions, with the Daggers being the operatives that carried out active missions. The Cloaks, on the other hand, were passive members who were in charge of gathering information.

They had many members working as Cloaks spread out in the entire city and it was quite an expansive network too. It included courtesans, artists, shopkeepers, beggars and more. And from what Lin Mu and Crown Prince learned, many weren't even aware they were working for the Cloak and Dagger Hall.

Most of their members simply sold information on the side to earn a bit more. Only the higher ranked members actually knew about the organization. The existence of such a large scale black network was alarming to Crown Prince. He quickly informed the Emperor of this and an emergency court session was held. In it, all the information that had been discovered so far was revealed. It was very shocking to them as they had already been under stress due to the Black Ying Empires actions and now they had another snake that they needed to deal that was hiding right inside their homes.

The Emperor decided that he had given enough freedom to the nobles and it was time to tighten his fist. And quickly sent out an edict and all those that were involved in it were arrested and brought to the court. But not all of them got the same punishment.
