Chapter 226 A sudden turn of events
Late at night, everything is silent.

Yelena was fast asleep in her dormitory.

Perhaps because she was alone, the room was very quiet.

You could even hear her steady, even breathing.

At that moment, a very faint sound came from the dormitory gate.

It turned out that someone had gently pushed the door open from the outside.

The next moment, a dark figure stealthily slipped in.

She moved with lightning speed, like a kitten, and quickly made her way to Yelena's bedside.

Moonlight streamed in through the gaps in the curtains, illuminating the red-haired girl's face and the knife in her hand.

That's right.

This sneaky, furtive fellow was none other than Anya, who had been seriously injured earlier.

Just as Tommy has his recovery ointment, the Red House also has its own healing remedy.

It's just that its effects are not as powerful as rehabilitation ointments, but it can still allow seriously injured people to get out of bed and walk in a short time.

However, the price is that it comes at the cost of mortgaging the future.

But for the Red House, this small price to pay is nothing.

Most secret agents rarely live to be forty.

Dying two years earlier wouldn't be a big deal at all.

If those agents can successfully complete a few missions, the Red House can recoup its previous costs and make a fortune.

Once you understand this, you'll understand why the Red House doesn't take human life seriously.

Anya's presence here was naturally at the behest of the Red House.

The training methods in the Red House are very simple.

They would gather a group of children together and use a method similar to raising poison to select the strongest one.

That person is this year's Black Widow.

Now, Anya has received orders from above to kill Yelena Belova.

Despite Anya's previous ruthlessness and lack of mercy towards death row inmates, she was not fooled.

But that's because death row inmates were her enemies, which is why she could be so decisive.

But Anya couldn't bring herself to do it to her good friend Yelena.

She and Yelena were in the same batch of trainees and grew up together in the same dormitory.

Over the years, the two have developed a deep friendship and are inseparable.

So even though she knew that doing so would disobey orders, Anya lowered her raised arm and put away the dagger in her hand.

However, just as she put the knife away, Yelena on the bed opened her eyes.

"Why don't you do it?"

In fact, Yelena had already woken up.

In such a dangerous environment as the Red House, she even had to hold onto one ear while sleeping.

How could someone really fall into a deep sleep?

Therefore, from the moment Anya entered the school, she was aware of the other party's presence.

But she didn't open her eyes immediately.

Instead, she continued to pretend to be fast asleep.

The purpose of doing this was to see what Anya was really up to.

The result left her both happy and sad.

Fortunately, Anya did not forget their past friendship and did not choose to attack her.

And that is precisely why she is sad.

Anya couldn't bring herself to kill her.

How could she bear to hurt Anya?
However, according to the Red House's consistent practice, only one person from each cohort can survive to the end.

But if neither of them is willing to take action, then both of them will die.

All the Red House wants are obedient and useful tools.

Those who disobey orders will only face death.

In this respect, Yelena never underestimated the Red Room's determination. "Go ahead, Anya, you know what you have to do."

Although she was somewhat disappointed to know she hadn't been chosen, Yelena felt that if she could become friends with Quanqian, then her death would be worthwhile and meaningful.

No matter how much Yelena tried to persuade her, Anya couldn't bring herself to make the tough decision.

She knew, of course, what would happen if she did this, but she just couldn't bring herself to do it.

She has given up a lot in order to survive.

But if she lost even this last friendship, she really didn't know if she could still be called a human being.

"Yelena, I...I can't do it."

Anya spoke with a sob in her voice, her tone filled with pain and struggle.

Seeing her reaction, Yelena could only sigh.

"Since none of us are willing to take action, then there's only one last option left."

"You want to run away?"

Anya immediately understood what she meant and shook her head.

"But where can we escape to?"

Apart from a small knife, the two of them had no other suitable weapons.

If they were to rush outside like that, they would be riddled with bullets by the guards; there would be absolutely no other possibility.

Even if they were lucky enough to escape the hellish Red House, they probably wouldn't be able to survive outside.

This is Siberia, one of the coldest places on Earth.

Temperatures are below zero almost all year round.

Their thin clothes offer absolutely no warmth; if they went outside, they would probably freeze into two icicles after only a few steps and fall into eternal slumber.

"Yes, where else can we run to?"

Hearing Anya's analysis, even Yelena, who had suggested escaping, couldn't help but fall into despair.

Knowing that their fate of death was irreversible, the two little girls were filled with sorrow. They comforted each other and hugged each other, tears streaming down their faces.

……

A biting wind howled, and heavy snow began to fall from the sky.

On the snow-covered ground, two figures were walking one after the other.

That's right, these two are Tommy and Natasha.

Although Natasha gave them directions, the two still went the wrong way a few times, which delayed them.

This cannot be entirely blamed on Natasha.

The location of the red house is really hard to find.

The transportation conditions in Siberia are terrible; there's snow everywhere and potholes all around.

A slight misstep could lead to a major setback.

In other words, Tommy can fly, which saves a lot of trouble.

Otherwise, who knows how much time they would waste on the road.

Fortunately, after overcoming numerous difficulties, Tommy and his companion finally found the right place and were able to begin their operation.

Natasha took out her binoculars and explained the situation of the Red House.

"The underground base is full of fully armed soldiers, at least a battalion strong."

"The frontal defenses were incredibly tough; they had landmines all over the place."

"The other entrances also have many surprises, basically including one or two squads of soldiers, usually armed with a combination of rifles and light machine guns, and perhaps a few anti-tank guns or recoilless rifles."

"In short, no matter which entrance you choose, it won't be much easier."

Because she had long harbored rebellious intentions, Natasha had a very clear understanding of the Red Room's defenses, making them virtually impenetrable.

This is just the right time to put it to use.

However, Natasha did not make a decision immediately.

Today's main fighting force still depends on Tommy; she can only play a supporting role on the sidelines.

As for the action plan, Tommy was the one who decided it.

"I've made up my mind, we'll attack head-on!"
