My Perfect Female CEO

Chapter 1347: Taking the Fall

The name Peng Bird is at the height of its popularity, rapidly gaining fame and becoming a hot topic among numerous forces.This has been quite troublesome for everyone in the Peng Bird organization; lower-level members are bewildered, and mid-level personnel feel the same.

They are directly puzzled, wondering when their organization became so formidable; it’s simply an incredible matter.

One by one, they carried this news to the upper echelons, and after being chastised by the higher-ups, they took the initiative to shut their mouths.

Peng Bird, Flower Snake, Hua Diao, and Mountain Ghost gathered together; as the higher-ups, they were the most frustrated, and they felt the greatest pressure.

Flower Snake and Hua Diao are female, Peng Bird and Mountain Ghost are male.

Peng Bird is the leader of a group of assassins, and the organization is named after the leader’s nickname.

"I’m at a loss, how could we have become so powerful, killing Black Shark, not caring about the Poison Dragon Mercenary Corps, and further disregarding General Hawan? Are we really that impressive?" Mountain Ghost complained angrily.

"People below keep asking me, whether killing Black Shark, provoking the Poison Dragon Mercenary Corps, and General Hawan’s affairs were our actions. They feel left out and all want to be part of these actions. To them, it looks like we’ve become so mighty, and they’re proud of our fame." Hua Diao bitterly commented.

"I’ve received quite a few calls, all inquiring about the truth of the matter. How am I supposed to answer?" Flower Snake asked bitterly, "I can only keep them guessing, I don’t dare reveal the truth."

"You’re in better shape; I’m even more anxious." Peng Bird lamented, "Many big names are questioning me, thinking I’ve gained some benefits or gotten help aimed at achieving fame and fortune. How can I respond?"

The four higher-ups looked worse each time; the outside world believed that they killed Black Shark, provoked the Poison Dragon Mercenary Corps, and disregarded General Hawan, but they knew better than anyone that this was an absurd fabrication.

Compared to others’ confusion, they were the most baffled.

As the parties involved, they were thrown into the limelight, but they were the most aggrieved victims.

All four were aware that a massive burden was placed on their heads, suffocating them.

Even if they didn’t want to bear it, this was forced upon them by others.

Would an explanation be believed by others?

"With such a big matter, it’s impossible for us to hide anymore." Peng Bird said helplessly, "Not to mention that the Poison Dragon Mercenary Corps and General Hawan have locked their killing intent on us; with such a huge commotion, our people are frequently active, not to mention those forces who know our identity. If the Poison Dragon Mercenary Corps and General Hawan investigate, they will undoubtedly find out our identity and whereabouts; it’s just a matter of time. If the fake Peng Bird gets exposed, our exposure will be postponed; if the fake Peng Bird group remains silent, then we are doomed."

"Indeed, when the tree desires calm, but the wind won’t stop, it catches one off guard." Flower Snake said bitterly, "We already retired from the assassin stage and rarely took missions, yet unexpectedly, even before we could properly wash our hands of things, this messy affair arose, making it a city-wide spectacle and pushing us into the limelight; it’s truly frustrating."

"Should we leak that someone is impersonating us to prove our innocence?" Hua Diao uncertainly suggested.

"Prove our innocence? How do we prove that? Aside from those familiar with us, who else would believe it?" Peng Bird replied angrily, "No matter how much we argue now, we can’t shake off this burden; it’s something we have to bear."

"Yeah, as soon as we voluntarily show up, it gives the Poison Dragon Mercenary Corps and General Hawan the opportunity to attack us; regardless of whether we really did those things, based on the face the Poison Dragon Mercenary Corps and General Hawan have lost, they’ll take it out on us and regain their authority by killing chickens to warn monkeys; this is unavoidable." Mountain Ghost’s mouth twitched continuously.

Currently, Peng Bird and the other three are truly at a loss; no matter how much they try to explain, it’s like talking to a brick wall.

Even if the Poison Dragon Mercenary Corps and General Hawan somehow believe that someone is impersonating them, it’s useless.

Just based on the identities of people like Hawk and Hawan, they will vent their anger on them, thereby re-establishing a bad reputation.

"Mountain Ghost, have you gathered any information on who released the news about assassinating the five captains of the Poison Dragon Mercenary Corps?" Peng Bird looked at Mountain Ghost with hopeful eyes.

"Ugh!" Mountain Ghost’s sigh explained everything, unwillingly saying, "I’ve found absolutely nothing."

"Hua Diao, who impersonated us and accepted that order?" Peng Bird asked again.

"No findings whatsoever." Hua Diao replied disheartenedly.

"Flower Snake, what about your side?" Although Peng Bird suspected there might be no outcome, finding zero clues was still quite stressful.

"My hacker friends searched for possible clues, but couldn’t discover any signs; the other side is very covert, and their methods are exceptionally clever, leaving no trace for us to track." Flower Snake explained seriously.

Peng Bird’s three unanswered inquiries were enough to demonstrate the opponent’s strength and skills.

"Able to cover up entirely, not leaving any trace for us to track, it shows the opponent has severed all possible traces, making our search fruitless; perhaps, the opposing side had anticipated this and thus left no loopholes." Peng Bird sighed.

"No matter what, the opponent is our peer on the dark side, which is beneficial for us." Flower Snake said, "I refuse to believe we can’t deal with those impersonating us. Based on reliable sources, the ones impersonating us are only seven people; we can definitely eliminate those impostors."

"Right now, it’s not just about eliminating those who impersonate us." Mountain Ghost said, "Even if we go all out and wipe out those impersonating us, what good would it do? It wouldn’t make the Poison Dragon Mercenary Corps or General Hawan relinquish their hostility towards us."

"This indeed is a thorny problem." Flower Snake said, "Moreover, let’s say we take action hastily; do we really have the ability to eliminate those impersonating us?"

The answer wasn’t easy to ascertain.

They were aware of how formidable the seven impostor Peng Birds were.

Daring to defy worldly fear with actions shows they’re extraordinary.

If that’s the case, Peng Bird and the other three really might struggle to eliminate their impostors.
