1344 Another Intention (1/2)
Xiangyu began to explain, ”We've planted a mole in Hou Sailei's group. He gave us the location of Hou Sailei's research facility and he was supposed to coordinate with us from the inside. He was going to open the door for us! When we reached that place, the door was open, but when we got in, it was nothing but an abandoned research facility. There was not a trace of Hou Sailei, but there were plenty of deadly poisonous gas!”
”There were nine other men with me. They all died on the spot! I was lucky enough that my ancient body interested them. Fortunately, they gave me the antidote. Otherwise, I would have been dead already!”
Xiangyu looked very upset when he mentioned about his nine teammates. Anger filled his eyes. Even though he did not say it aloud, it was obvious that Xiangyu wanted revenge, no matter the cost.
Chen Xiaobei replied analytically, ”So, our enemy discovered our mole! They must have fed you false intel, so that you would walk straight into their trap!”
”That's exactly what happened! One mole, and Nine Thunder Kirin Special Forces. All dead. I have to bring justice to their sacrifice!” Xiangyu was determined but there was a helplessness plastered on his face. ”But the biggest problem now is that with our mole gone, finding Hou Sailei would be like finding a needle in a haystack!”
”Don't worry, Mr. Yu! We have a Central Intelligence Agency high official with us!”
Yin Wuqiu smiled, as he turned his gaze to Zaar who was standing in the corner of the room.
”Me?” Zaar pointed at himself, his body shaking. ”Hou Sailei's research facility is the most top-secret facility there has ever been! The level of its secrecy is equivalent to getting the launch codes of a nuclear weapon! Other than the president, only three other people know where it is. This is totally above my pay grade!”
”…”
Yin Wuqiu thought that Zaar would have known but from the looks of it, the idiot was telling the truth. ”If that's the case then, we'll figure out a plan to catch anyone who knows about this. We'll make a move once we get to know the location!”
”No!” Xiangyu shook his head and said, ”If we catch any one of them, the Americans will instantly come up with a contingency plan. Before we can even find out where Hou Sailei is, they would have already transferred him somewhere else!”
”This…” Yin Wuqiu was frustrated. ”If that's the case, then we're all out of plans!”
”Yeah! If it was that simple, so many people would not have been sacrificed already.” Xiangyu sighed dispiritedly. He really did not know what to do next.
”It's actually very easy!” Chen Xiaobei who had been quiet, suddenly spoke up.
”Easy? What are you saying?!”
Xiangyu, Yin Wuqiu, and even Zaar perked up their ears, eager to hear what Chen Xiaobei had to say.
”The mole and the nine Thunder Kirin members' sacrifice are not wasted! They have already helped us confirm Hou Sailei's whereabouts!” Chen Xiaobei said.
”What? Hou Sailei's location? How is that possible?”
The three men stared blankly at each other, not understanding what Chen Xiaobei meant.
”If I'm right, Hou Sailei should be in the abandoned research facility!” Chen Xiaobei said.
”That's impossible! No way they are there! I saw it with my own eyes.” Xiangyu shook his head disbelievingly.
Yin Wuqiu and Zaar look unconvinced.
Chen Xiaobei smiled. ”The mole's cover has been blown. They could have just killed him, but why lure you guys in? Killing your team makes no difference in this matter! The great America would not do something so redundant! There must be more to this move!”
The other three men nodded. They all understood what Chen Xiaobei was saying.
