They came in the night, but it was as if they had brought light with them, dispelling the thick darkness.
The moon peeked out in the sky and sprinkled its light on the ground, making the dozen or so figures appear even taller.
As soon as the gunshot rang out, Reinitz knew something was wrong. They were surrounded.
He made a prompt decision and immediately stuffed the note he had found in the pillar into his mouth. He chewed it up before swallowing it.
After he finished processing the note, he looked up and saw a red light flash in front of him. A small red dot was aimed at the center of his forehead.
Although he couldn't see the red dot, the red light that flashed in front of him made him immediately understand that he was locked on by a sniper rifle.
If he moved, he would immediately be shot in the head by the sniper.
Reinitz's body instantly stiffened, and he didn't even have time to do anything to Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi excitedly struggled again.
This time, she easily broke free from Reinitz's shackles and got up from the ground.
She looked back and saw that Reinitz was still in the same position on the ground. His head was tilted, and his gaze fell on the figures in front of him.
Gu Nianzhi clearly saw a red dot on Reinitz's forehead. It looked like the light from a laser pointer.
Of course, she knew that this red dot was actually a sniper rifle's lock-on.
No wonder Reinitz was lying motionless on the ground in the same position as before.
His gaze shifted to Gu Nianzhi. His eyes looked so blue under the moonlight that they were almost black. They really looked like the sea under the moonlight.
Gu Nianzhi pouted at him and immediately turned to smile.
The ten or so tall figures had already arrived by their side and surrounded them.
Gu Nianzhi was very familiar with the figure at the front. She had already recognized it as Huo Shaoheng.
Therefore, when she saw the man's full beard and unfamiliar aquiline nose, she was stunned.
The man didn't even look at her. He walked to He Zhichu's side with his gun and reached out to him. "Boss, we're late."
The voice was low and hoarse, and every sound seemed to be sanded with sandpaper.
It wasn't Huo Shaoheng's voice either.
Gu Nianzhi only hesitated for a moment before understanding.
Huo Shaoheng and the others had disguised themselves.
Just like every overseas operation of the Special Operations Forces, they would disguise themselves and not be easily exposed.
The joy on Gu Nianzhi's face faded and she stood silently to the side.
The moonlight was like water, shining on the pure white Taj Mahal, making it look like a bright moon palace.
Under the moonlight, the Taj Mahal had a different kind of charm, like a peerless beauty frozen at the most beautiful moment of her life.
He Zhichu looked at the outstretched hand in front of him. His gaze followed the hand, up the strong arm, and stopped on an unfamiliar face covered in a full beard.
He actually modified it …
Too cunning!
He Zhichu snorted but didn't take Huo Shaoheng's hand. Instead, he pushed himself up and sneered, "Thanks to you, I'm not dead yet. You guys really came at the right time!"
"…"
He didn't say anything, but he used his eyes to warn He Zhichu not to go overboard.
The corners of He Zhichu's lips twitched.
If Gu Nianzhi hadn't been watching, he would have slapped her!
What the hell!
He didn't care about Gu Nianzhi's life and used her as bait for Reinitz to take advantage of her!
He Zhichu raised his head and turned to walk to Reinitz's side. He suddenly raised his leg and kicked Reinitz's chest.
Gu Nianzhi trembled in fear and covered her mouth with both hands to stifle the scream she was about to let out.
Huo Shaoheng coughed uncomfortably and said in a hoarse voice, "… Boss, let's go quickly."
There were corpses everywhere, and the mercenaries He Zhichu had brought were already beaten to the point where they couldn't move.
As soon as the sun rose, the country's military and police discovered them, so it wouldn't be easy for them to escape.
Moreover, because He Zhichu acted rashly, the person behind Reinitz didn't come out and only captured Reinitz.
He Zhichu vented the anger in his chest and clenched his fists. He waved his hand and said, "Tie him up and take him away."
Huo Shaoheng gave his subordinates a look and told them to listen to He Zhichu's orders.
Two soldiers silently took a special rope from their waists and tied Reinitz up.
They used the international sailor's knot. It was said that the more one struggled, the tighter the knot became. It was very secure.
He Zhichu finally walked to Gu Nianzhi's side and looked down at the dust on her face. He took out a pack of wet tissues from his pocket and carefully wiped her face.
Gu Nianzhi suppressed the excitement in her heart and obediently let He Zhichu wipe her face. She stood beside He Zhichu and controlled her gaze not to look at Huo Shaoheng.
Huo Shaoheng also didn't say anything. He was dressed in dark camouflage and had infrared night vision goggles on his head. On his feet were the B brand military boots that mercenaries often wore. They were said to be strong enough to kill a cow with one kick.
He and another colleague dressed as mercenaries stood shoulder to shoulder behind He Zhichu and acted like they were protecting their boss. Of course, Gu Nianzhi, who was standing next to He Zhichu, was also under his protection.
The rest of the people dealt with the corpses on Reinitz's side.
The corpses were dragged away and thrown into the river next to the Taj Mahal.
The mercenaries He Zhichu had brought earlier had their legs or arms injured, but their lives weren't in danger.
These people were supported into the dark night and walked towards the jeeps they had brought with them.
In the blink of an eye, there were only a few people left in the corridor in front of the Taj Mahal.
He Zhichu took Gu Nianzhi's hand and asked Reinitz coldly, "What did you find in that pillar?"
He Zhichu actually didn't want to ask such a ridiculous question.
However, Huo Shaoheng kept sending him messages through his Bluetooth headset and asked him to first find out what clues Reinitz had found.
Reinitz smiled. He had just been kicked hard by He Zhichu, so his internal organs were shaken and the corners of his lips were bleeding.
However, his arms were tied behind his back, so he couldn't wipe himself. Under the moonlight, his appearance was very horrifying.
Gu Nianzhi turned her head uncomfortably and looked at the Taj Mahal in the distance.
Reinitz smiled even more happily. He had already chewed up the note and swallowed it. Even if they killed him and cut him open, they wouldn't be able to find it.
"Sorry, there's no more." Reinitz raised his eyebrows and spoke in a very gentlemanly manner.
He Zhichu frowned. "No more? What do you mean there's no more? "
"There's no more means there's no more. You guys came too late. I already ate that thing … "Reinitz said politely. Although he was tied up, he still stood ramrod straight like he was going to a palace ball.
He Zhichu's lips twitched. He was about to tell Huo Shaoheng that there was nothing he could do when Gu Nianzhi quietly recited the note she had just seen.
"… Congratulations on passing the first stage. I don't know why you want to track down this thing. But before I tell you where it is, you can go to these places to take a look. "
"… Bardi Fertility Assistance Center, the Labado Project's Parental Treatment Center, Dass Fertility Medical Clinic, Lajiawan Infertility Treatment Center …"
With Gu Nianzhi's photographic memory, that little note of less than 200 words was a piece of cake.
He Zhichu, "…"
Reinitz, "…"
Both of them thought, Damn, how could they forget about Gu Nianzhi's genius IQ …
Only Huo Shaoheng burst out laughing.
He Zhichu turned around and glared at him. "… How dare you laugh at the boss?!"
Huo Shaoheng quickly wiped his smile and looked up. "I wouldn't dare!"
Reinitz's suspicious gaze lingered on Huo Shaoheng's face for a moment. He didn't recognize this person at all.
With these people's skills, he actually couldn't tell which mercenary group they belonged to …
And because of Reinitz's work, he was very familiar with the mercenaries on the Blue Planet.
Gu Nianzhi quietly looked down and had a hard time holding back her laughter.
He Zhichu held Gu Nianzhi's hand and felt her body tremble slightly. He knew she was laughing, and he felt even more aggrieved.
He gritted his teeth and wrapped his arm around Gu Nianzhi's shoulders to hold her in his arms. He turned around and said sternly, "Let's go!"
He practically dragged Gu Nianzhi away with him.
Huo Shaoheng's eyes flickered as his gaze swept past He Zhichu's back. His burning gaze finally stopped on Gu Nianzhi's back, almost burning a hole in it.
He turned around and waved his hand, ordering his men to escort Reinitz to follow.
The soldier holding Reinitz put a piece of tape on his mouth, put a woolen cap over his face, and pushed him to follow the others.
The group of people got into the cars, and the engines roared as they left the Taj Mahal with a roar.
Gu Nianzhi and He Zhichu got into the car in the middle and sat in the back.
Huo Shaoheng escorted Reinitz over and ordered his men to take him to the car in front. He walked to the car in the middle where He Zhichu and Gu Nianzhi were sitting and pulled the door open.
He Zhichu slammed the back door and locked it from the inside.
Gu Nianzhi looked at him speechlessly and quietly opened the back door on her side. Then she glanced at Huo Shaoheng.
There was a faint smile in Huo Shaoheng's eyes as he walked around to Gu Nianzhi's side, opened the door, and slowly sat inside.
Gu Nianzhi moved from the back seat on the left side of the door to the middle seat.
He Zhichu and Huo Shaoheng sat on either side of her.
This was the safest moment Gu Nianzhi had felt in days.
She smiled as she looked at Huo Shaoheng on her left, then at He Zhichu on her right, and nodded in satisfaction.
He Zhichu's expression was cold as he ordered the driver in front, "Drive."
The driver was also one of the Special Operations Forces field personnel that Huo Shaoheng had brought with him.
He only listened to Huo Shaoheng's orders.
Huo Shaoheng also nodded and said, "Drive."
Only then did he start the car and leave the Taj Mahal.
They got on the highway and drove to He Zhichu's apartment in New Delhi.
Gu Nianzhi asked where they were going and thought of Rong Mingxing. She asked anxiously, "By the way, where's Rong Mingxing? Have you guys contacted her? "
He Zhichu didn't even look at her as he said coldly, "You can't even protect yourself, and you still have to worry about others? She's fine and has already returned to the embassy. "
Gu Nianzhi breathed a sigh of relief.
She smiled at He Zhichu ingratiatingly. "Thank you, Professor He."
He Zhichu snorted and didn't hear Gu Nianzhi say anything else for a long time.
He was a little surprised and couldn't help but look at her, only to find that Gu Nianzhi had already fallen asleep.
She had fallen asleep with her head on Huo Shaoheng's shoulder on the other side.
