Huo Shaoheng didn't want to expose himself too much.
He had cooperated with the Hua Nation's private plane to make this trip to Cuba so that he could appear in this place with a proper identity.
Therefore, after a brief discussion with the Cuban Supreme Military Council, he told General Ji that he would be returning home immediately.
General Ji didn't agree. He sat behind his desk and smiled like a Maitreya Buddha. "Shaoheng, think about it. If you leave as soon as you arrive, wouldn't you be exposing yourself? What would others think? What would those people who have been watching you think? "
This made sense. He had to go through with the act. He had already taken 99 steps out of 100, so there was no need to waste all his efforts at the last step.
Huo Shaoheng knew that because of Mole's betrayal, the intelligence agencies of every country were probably watching his movements.
"Yes, you're right." Huo Shaoheng didn't object. "Then I'll wait a little longer."
"Since you're already in Cuba, you can learn from your peers there. You're now visiting Cuba as an official soldier, so you can take a look at Cuba's signal radar system. They're so close to the United States, so there must be something interesting there. Hahaha … "General Ji couldn't help but laugh at the happy part.
Huo Shaoheng replied, "Okay, I'll be careful."
"Well, since the private plane is already here, you can stay for as long as you want. It's best if you stay a few more days. I have an important political mission for you." General Ji's tone became serious. "You know that the situation in the country is quite tense right now, and the election will be held in a few days. It's not appropriate for you to return now, so wait a little longer. It won't be too late to return after the election results are announced. "
Huo Shaoheng was silent for a moment before replying, "Yes, sir."
He couldn't return for now, so Huo Shaoheng didn't contact Zhou Qiyuan in the Hua Nation.
Zhou Qiyuan wasn't in a hurry either. He locked everyone up separately and began interrogating them one by one.
He didn't know why Huo Shaoheng locked them up, but they had to be interrogated as a routine.
It was nothing more than asking about their resumes, daily affairs, and social relations. It was like a political investigation, but more stringent.
Every question had to be supported by actual evidence, be it written or testimony from witnesses.
…
Huo Guanchen sat in his office at the Special Operations Forces headquarters. He looked at the Deputy Chief of the Special Operations Forces, who had a serious expression on his face.
It was just a simple field mission. Why were they gone?
Did they run away? Defected? Or … did something happen?
It had been two days since the German field personnel were dispatched, and they could no longer contact them.
Usually, when such a situation occurred, it meant that something had happened.
It didn't matter if something happened. In this line of work, accidents could happen at any time.
More importantly, the measures and means taken after the accident must be swift and without delay.
However, the problem was that Huo Guanchen had no background in intelligence work. Once something went wrong, he had no experience in how to remedy the situation or how to avoid greater losses.
"… Disappeared? Then what should we do? What about Gu Nianzhi? Did you find it? "Huo Guanchen raised his voice." Is this how you complete the mission the organization gave you? "
The Deputy Chief was furious, but he could not vent his anger on General Huo.
He could only lower his head and remain silent as Huo Guanchen scolded him.
Huo Guanchen angrily slammed the table and stood up. "What do you mean by not saying anything?! Hurry up and send more people to look for him! "
The Deputy Chief finally raised his head to look at Huo Guanchen, who was fuming with rage. He said calmly, "General Huo, we still haven't figured out what's going on. We can't rashly send out more people."
"Why?"
"Because we can't determine whether that location is the real Miss Gu or the enemy's trap." The Deputy Chief didn't want to send his men to their deaths again. Not to mention that the two people had disappeared without a trace. It was also a troublesome matter.
For Gu Nianzhi, they had already lost two field personnel and needed to send more field personnel. Were their people like radishes that could be plucked and used at any time?
The Deputy Chief felt that this matter had to be considered at length.
Huo Guanchen listened to the Deputy Chief's words and slowly sat back down.
It was undeniable that the Deputy Chief made a lot of sense.
Also, Huo Guanchen suddenly felt that this wasn't a bad idea.
It wasn't that he didn't want to search, but something had happened to the field personnel of the Special Operations Forces, so they couldn't continue to be dispatched.
"Okay, then do as you see fit. I have full authority to solve this for you." Huo Guanchen took out a pen and wrote a note for the Deputy Chief. "General Ji specifically reminded us to keep this a secret from your Chief for now. It won't be too late to talk about it after we find Miss Gu. You have to remember that if anyone reveals this to your Chief, he will be punished according to military law. I will not show any mercy. I believe that General Ji thinks the same way. "
"Yes, Chief." The Deputy Chief had no objections and didn't dare to.
But if he didn't let Huo Shaoheng know about this, who could solve it?
If Huo Shaoheng was in the Hua Xia Empire, the Deputy Chief could make the trip himself.
But he was now abroad, so the Deputy Chief couldn't go abroad.
Both of them had to maintain that one of them stayed in the Hua Xia Empire and couldn't go abroad at the same time.
It was just like when both of them took a plane, they couldn't take the same flight at the same time. They had to leave separately.
After thinking about it, he could only think of Yin Shixiong and Zhao Liangze.
These two were Huo Shaoheng's personal secretaries and were very capable themselves. Also, they had followed Huo Shao from the beginning to the end for Gu Nianzhi.
The two field agents disappeared because of Gu Nianzhi, so they should know about it for both official and personal reasons. They should follow up on it to see if it had anything to do with Gu Nianzhi's disappearance.
Also, General Ji had ordered that Huo Shao not know about this for now, but he didn't say that no one else could know.
Also, this matter wasn't a secret among the higher-ups of the Special Operations Forces.
In order to locate Gu Nianzhi's satellite, all the personnel involved in the satellite orbit adjustment knew everything they needed to know.
Yin Shixiong and Zhao Liangze just happened to be on a mission abroad.
Zhao Liangze had just been sent to Cuba by General Ji to assist Huo Shao's visit. He had no choice but to quickly summon Yin Shixiong back to the Hua Xia Empire to deal with this matter.
…
Yin Shixiong had originally been sent to Japan and was only halfway through his mission there when he suddenly received an urgent transfer order from the Special Operations Forces to immediately return to the Hua Xia Empire.
Even the plane tickets had been booked for him, and he was about to board the plane with his suitcase.
He was a soldier, so it was his duty to obey orders.
Yin Shixiong didn't say anything else and immediately boarded the plane.
The flight from Tokyo to the Imperial Capital only took three hours. Yin Shixiong boarded the plane at five in the afternoon and arrived at the Imperial Capital International Airport at eight in the evening. However, because of the time difference, it was already nine in the evening in the Imperial Capital.
His adjutant came to pick him up. He opened the car door with a serious expression and invited him in.
Yin Shixiong nodded and sat in the front passenger seat. He asked his adjutant, "Tell me, what happened?"
His adjutant started the car and simply said, "Something happened to two people outside."
In their professional terminology, people outside referred to "field personnel," and "something happened" meant that they had died in the line of duty.
Yin Shixiong's heart sank.
Although this kind of thing wasn't rare, he still felt bad every time he heard such news.
Those people were all their comrades. No soldier would be indifferent to the news of their comrades' deaths unless they didn't see them as comrades.
"Ok, we'll talk about it when we get back," Yin Shixiong said dryly and didn't ask any more questions.
After returning to the Special Operations Forces, Yin Shixiong didn't go back to his residence at all. Instead, he went directly to the headquarters base and returned to his room in Huo Shao's official residence.
He and Zhao Liangze both had their own rooms there, as well as a study and a conference room. It was like two separate small suites.
After taking a shower and changing clothes, Yin Shixiong dried his hair and went to the kitchen to find something to eat. He then informed his team members, "We'll be having a meeting in ten minutes. All personnel on duty and officers above the rank of colonel must be present."
After notifying them of the meeting, Yin Shixiong went to the safe and took out the phone he had prepared in the Hua Xia Empire.
It was already out of battery. Yin Shixiong took it to the conference room and plugged it in to charge while waiting for everyone to start the meeting.
He arrived early and waited for a while before the phone's battery was turned on. He swiped it open and saw an important message in the voicemail.
The message was from Gu Nianzhi's external contact number.
