The matter regarding Sofia possibly being attacked was hardly known within the FBI.
A few high-level officials gathered and made a decision, which Feng Jun, who was hiding, heard clearly.
The final conclusion was: temporarily do not inform Sofia.
There are three reasons for this decision. First, she is not friendly to the FBI. Secondly, everyone wants to see what her limits are, whether she can fend off the assassination attempt and what means she might use to counterattack.
The third point is if Sofia were to die, the FBI could grab Patricia by the hair—how would she cut our funding?
No matter what, the FBI tends to believe that Sofia cannot be killed, or even if she dies, someone will take the fall.
Of course, even with this, McWhite tried to keep Sofia back, saying he was worried about police trouble—this possibility objectively exists; however, their main goal is to prevent any chance for the opponent to strike.
