Under the Mask

Mi Rong took a step back. Astonishment, happiness, fear, and confusion were mixed in her eyes.

Without realising, Mi Rong finally blurted out, "But...but you're dead?" 

The other person raised her hand to cover her mouth and giggled softly. With her other hand, she waved towards Mi Rong, "Hello, leader."

"Hua…" Mi Rong swallowed a big lump down. It could not be.

Li Ye then stepped in, "She has done very well in helping us out hasn't she, Mi Rong?"

"What?" Mi Rong then realised something, "The picture?"

"Yes, leader. I was the one who took it. It was not that hard." Hua finally revealed the answer.

Mi Rong was stunned. 

"Although I was a spy, I have taken care of your hostage all the way until here haven't I? Taking that sword for Lady Ru Yin." Hua spoke with a face full of smiles, but her eyes were full of hostility.
