Spying Mission Q

Hello,
if my predator plays "Spying Mission" at superior on a sucessful bleed, may I deflect it?

When "Spying Mission triggers, may I deflect it or reduce the amount of the bleed?

Card text:
Spying Mission

Cardtype: Action Modifier
Discipline: Obfuscate
[obf] +1 stealth.
[OBF] Only usable if a bleed would be successful. Instead, the bleed burns no pool, is unsuccessful, and this card is put on this vampire. The next time this vampire is about to successfully bleed the same Methuselah, burn this card and this vampire gets +2 bleed.

Thank you.

No.

And no.

And neither can you play Archon Investigation to burn the vampire after x many spying mission cards on it are burned to increase the succesful bleed. Only after all those are played, is the window to play Spying Mission at superior to either add them or burn them for bleed increase.

See; www.vekn.net/card-rulings/card-rulings-p-to-z Spying Mission for this and other relevant rulings on it.

Question here then..

"The next time this vampire is about to successfully bleed the same Methuselah, burn this card and this vampire gets +2 bleed."

Is not the spying mission card burned automatically at the next successful bleed against the same Methuselah that it was played against.. so you dont have a choice but to burn it for +2 bleed?

Or am I reading this wrong?

I ask this in regard to the Archon Investigation comment.

Yes, it is obligatory at your next successful bleed, but since it is already successful, it's too late for AI or Deflection - both of these cards have to be played before SM is burnt.

In other words you have to wait with burning SM for the moment when the target is reaching for their pool counters to move them to the blood bank, to allow them to play bleed redirection or AI before SM is burnt.

So a Vampire with +1 bleed with an Spying mission against (A), declares a bleed against (A)

A can burn the vampire with an Archon investigaion because it's trying to bleed for 4...

right?
