"My name? I explained it to you the first time!" Beckett Drake asked, like a diligent student who wanted to get the right answer:
"Besides, there is an ancient poem, right? 'In the morning a country bumpkin, by evening in the emperor's court'..."
"But when I think of Beckett Drake, it's the self-appointed clever Japanese Lucas Tan Surlang in 'The Old Female Chivalry'!"
Beckett Drake's body stiffened at these words, and then he forced a bitter smile:
"I really didn't think there would be anyone in this day and age who would still read that old book..."
Beckett Drake sighed and said:
"Yes, I am Japanese, and my name is Lucas Tan Surlang. I was a special agent sent to Taiwan, mainly engaged in the collection of intelligence on folk culture and geography.
Later, due to a special incident, my superior, who had a single line of contact, was assassinated. All the information about the thirteen special agents, including me, had disappeared and I became free."
