"… You'll really wait for me?" Gu Nianzhi stifled her sobs as she hung her head.
"Yes."
"Ok, I'll be quick! Give me a minute! " Gu Nianzhi put down the phone and sprinted to the bathroom like a little firecracker. She turned on the hot water and hastily washed her face, then grabbed a towel to wipe her face as she ran back.
"Uncle Huo! Are you still there? "Gu Nianzhi quickly picked up the phone.
"Yes." Huo Shaoheng flipped another page of the National Defense briefing, "Speak."
Gu Nianzhi was disconcerted by Huo Shaoheng's call and became a little timid. She didn't dare ask him any more personal questions and thought about it for a long time before asking, "Uncle Huo, when are you coming back?"
Gu Nianzhi hadn't seen him in a long time and realized that she really missed him.
Huo Shaoheng stared at the National Defense briefing and replied casually, "I'll be back when I'm done with work."
Gu Nianzhi opened her mouth but didn't ask any more questions.
She had already said it was work, and Uncle Huo's work wasn't something he could just casually share with anyone. It was all classified.
Gu Nianzhi was a little crestfallen.
She rolled over and lay on the fluffy white woolen blanket. She looked up at the cream-colored ceiling and asked carefully, "Then, can you come back in two weeks?"
Her vacation was only two weeks.
It would be great if Uncle Huo could come back in two weeks.
Huo Shaoheng leisurely leaned against the sofa. His tall and burly body completely squeezed the spacious single-seater sofa.
"Depends." Huo Shaoheng's hand paused and calmly flipped to another page of the National Defense briefing.
Gu Nianzhi couldn't help but let out a long "Oh", her disappointment evident in her voice.
"What is it? Do you want me to come back? " Huo Shaoheng didn't even look up as he flipped through the National Defense briefing page by page. He quickly skimmed through the recent major international exchange activities within the Empire's borders.
"Yeah, I haven't seen you in a long time." Gu Nianzhi muttered as she grabbed her little panda pillow from the bed and hugged it to her chest.
"Why do you want me to come back? You want to train early again? "Huo Shaoheng asked calmly.
Gu Nianzhi was speechless.
What?
Train early in the morning!
"Okay, since we're back at the base, do a 10km cross-country run in the morning, 50 pull-ups, 100 sit-ups, 100 target practice, and 50 weights. Remember to complete them every day." Huo Shaoheng mercilessly assigned her morning training tasks.
Gu Nianzhi immediately sat up straight and said sternly, "Uncle Huo, the air's been pretty bad lately. The pollution's been pretty bad, so I won't be going cross-country. If I get sick from running, I'll have to trouble Brother Chen. "
"That's fine too. There's a treadmill on the third floor in my gym. Remember to go to the gym to run every day. The treadmill will record the number of steps you run. I'll check when I get back. "Huo Shaoheng wasn't so easily fooled.
Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips. "Uh, I'm hungry. I'm going to have lunch. Talk to you later, Uncle Huo." She hung up.
Huo Shaoheng heard the sound of the phone being hung up and smiled slightly. He turned off his phone and prepared to head out for the meeting.
Just as he was about to leave, his phone rang strangely again. It was the sound of an encrypted message coming in.
He was slightly startled.
…
In the supercomputer room of the Special Operations Forces base in C City, Zhao Liangze looked at the data he had found and gasped.
He picked up the phone and called Huo Shaoheng.
But the line on the other end was busy …
Zhao Liangze couldn't help but tap into the internal communication line to take a look.
He discovered that the number on the other end was Huo Shaoheng's cell phone number. He had been talking to his own internal line the entire time.
The only person living in Huo Shaoheng's quarters right now was Gu Nianzhi, who had come last night …
Since he was on the phone with Miss Gu, Zhao Liangze didn't dare interrupt. However, the information he had uncovered was too serious and he had to report it immediately.
Zhao Liangze thought about it and chose to send an encrypted message.
"A year's worth of customs container data seized in C City. There's a major discovery."
"There's more smuggled arms than expected …"
"The Dufeng Mountain Resort Villa kidnappers only got the tip of the iceberg."
"The smuggling routes have been traced upwards. It's related to the Secret Service. We don't know if there's a mole or a set-up. "
…
Huo Shaoheng unlocked his phone and saw that it was an encrypted message from Zhao Liangze.
His expression didn't change as he read each line. He dialed Zhao Liangze's number.
"Little Ze, what's going on?"
"Huo Shao?" Zhao Liangze hurriedly turned on his headset and answered the call. He kept downloading and storing data on his computer. "I've found the information you wanted. The kidnappers at Dufeng Mountain Resort Villa managed to get their hands on those foreign firearms. It was no coincidence. I found that a team of people from C City customs were involved in this large-scale arms smuggling. I followed up and found that it's related to both the Secret Service and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. "
"It's not surprising that it's related to the Secret Service, but what does it have to do with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs?" Huo Shaoheng looked at the national defense briefing in his hand. His eyes stopped on a major international conference on the third page.
This major international conference was the International Women's Commendation Conference that was about to be held in C City. It was sponsored by the United Nations Women's and Children's Rights Organization and honored women who had made significant achievements in various fields. It was equivalent to the Nobel Prize for women.
Famous female politicians, entrepreneurs, scientists, artists, philanthropists and celebrities from all over the world would be invited to C City for the conference and awards. It was one of the major international exchanges of the year for the entire Empire.
As expected, Zhao Liangze said, "The International Women's Commendation Conference that will be held in C City soon is organized by the Empire's Ministry of Foreign Affairs under the auspices of the United Nations. The arms smuggling that we discovered this time is closely related to this international conference. "
Huo Shaoheng's fingers tapped on the briefing. As expected, his intuition had always been accurate.
The Secret Service was responsible for the security of these large-scale international events, while the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was responsible for the organization.
"Tell me, who from the Secret Service and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs are involved? I want specific names and evidence." Huo Shaoheng pressed the record button.
Zhao Liangze read out the names one by one.
The highest-ranking officials involved were the Deputy Director of the Secret Service and the Deputy Representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to the United Nations.
Huo Shaoheng was no stranger to these names. He even knew a few of them personally.
However, when it came to national interests, he would show no mercy, even if it was his own parents.
"Roger that." Huo Shaoheng pressed the button to stop the recording and ordered Zhao Liangze, "Immediately destroy the weapons warehouse in C City and seize all the smuggled weapons. Capture all the people involved, regardless of which side they are from, and have the Special Operations Forces arrest them all."
"Huh?" Zhao Liangze was a little troubled. "The people who hid the arms are gangsters. It's easy to arrest them, but some of the people who facilitated it are people from within the government. If it's to set up a trap and arrest them, wouldn't it be …"
"Don't worry about it. After they're arrested, the 'expert' who set up the trap will naturally come to me," Huo Shaoheng said coldly. Huo Shaoheng said coldly, "To set up such a heartless trap, I want to see how many brains they have!"
