"You're not going to run away from the missions again, are you?" Zhou Yingxue stared at Ren Xiaosu's expression as though she was trying to figure out something.
Ren Xiaosu said unhappily, "How can you use the word run away? I have serious business to attend to! "
"What kind of business?" Zhou Yingxue was curious. She really wanted to know why Ren Xiaosu was involved in what happened today.
"I'm doing the D and C-rank missions, of course," Ren Xiaosu said in a serious tone.
Zhou Yingxue felt helpless. What kind of legendary supernatural being was he? Why did he have to go and snatch missions from the D and C-rank combatants? Wasn't he ashamed of himself?
Ren Xiaosu asked, "How did Wu Tong and the other three do today? Did they notice anything unusual? "
"There wasn't much unusual. They were just scouting the area outside the villas on Red Pine Lane and preparing for a night assault. Because there were no pedestrians on the streets after the gunshots were fired, we retreated," Zhou Yingxue explained.
"Alright." Ren Xiaosu nodded and instructed, "Be careful of those four. I think if anything unexpected happens during the mission, those four might join forces to take us down."
"Yes, Master."
Zhou Yingxue suddenly shut up. As soon as she said those words, she instinctively felt that something was wrong!
Ren Xiaosu looked at Zhou Yingxue in surprise. "What did you just say?"
"It's nothing." Zhou Yingxue felt like crying at her own stupidity. "It was a slip of the tongue."
Ren Xiaosu looked at her quietly for half a minute. "Let's eat. I've made your meal."
When the two of them walked into the house, Zhou Yingxue immediately put on a cold expression. "Assistant, bring my meal over."
Ren Xiaosu was speechless. This Zhou Yingxue didn't even need a cooldown time to switch characters. Wu Tong looked at Ren Xiaosu: "Bring our food over too."
In the end, Zhou Yingxue said calmly, "Only I can command my assistant. You guys can't. If you want to eat a hot meal, go cook it yourself. You're all men, don't you have hands and feet? What right do you have to command my assistant?"
In Zhou Yingxue's opinion, Wu Tong's group of four had deliberately not shared the method to enter the stronghold with each other and did not discuss it with her. They were just trying to draw a clear line between them, so there was nothing wrong with that.
But since you are so clear about it, I must also be clear about it.
Moreover, she was worried that if Wu Tong forced Ren Xiaosu to cook for the four of them, they might not have to eat in the future …
Ren Xiaosu said, "I'm sorry, I only cooked for two."
The meal was also very simple. It consisted of spicy and sour shredded potatoes, tomatoes and eggs, and stir-fried wild boar meat.
This wild boar meat was the one Ren Xiaosu had come across on his way here from the Northwest.
Off to the side, Wu Tong and the others were munching on the hardtack as they quietly watched Ren Xiaosu and Zhou Yingxue eat the hot meal. Wu Tong said coldly, "This is a safe house. Be careful of concealment and don't use the kitchen indiscriminately."
Ren Xiaosu said, "Since it's a residential area, do you think it won't arouse suspicion if no one cooks in the safe house when the lights are on at night and the gas tank isn't changed even once a year? Don't underestimate your neighbors' observational skills. They know exactly what's going on in your house. They can even remember when you've made dumplings."
As Zhou Yingxue ate, she asked, "Did that informant of yours say what Zhou Xilong's next plans are?"
Wu Tong glanced at her. "What's the furthest effective range of your sniper rifle?"
Zhou Yingxue said proudly, "Within two kilometers, it won't be a problem."
Ren Xiaosu was shocked. He only had Master Firearms Proficiency, not Perfect Firearms Proficiency like Yang Xiaojin. How dare you brag on my behalf!
When Wu Tong heard Zhou Yingxue say that, he suddenly felt relieved. "Tomorrow, Zhou Xilong will head to Liberation Park according to the original plan to meet a very important person. It'll be a private meeting, and the intelligence agencies under Zhou Xilong's command will be spread throughout the entire park. There might be more than a hundred of them."
"That many?" Zhou Yingxue wondered, "Then shouldn't we do it another day?"
Wu Tong looked at Zhou Yingxue and Ren Xiaosu. "When there's a lot of people, the enemy's guard will be the lowest. This time, we'll have to rely on Miss Zhou's sniping skills."
…
At 4 AM, many sanitation workers entered Liberation Park to clear out the trash cans, leaves, and trash.
But the sanitation workers today were a little different. They were all young and strong men.
Several ice cream trucks were already parked outside Liberation Park. They looked like they were selling ice cream, but there were more than a dozen staff members busying themselves inside.
"Position 10, check the sound recording equipment again," someone in the truck said through the earpiece.
Then he heard "123456789" being read in his earpiece. The person in the truck said, "The sound recording equipment has been checked. Install the next monitoring point."
This kind of work was common for the intelligence agencies. This was to control the situation and prevent any problems from happening during the private meeting during the day.
Those monitoring points happened to block off all the entrances to and from the park, as well as all the "infiltration points" in Liberation Park.
In the morning, the field team members in the truck started changing into their sportswear and taking turns to go for a morning jog in the park. They looked just like normal stronghold residents. Only five people were left in the truck staring at the surveillance screen. When they discovered any suspicious people, they would immediately zoom in on the surveillance footage to lock onto the target's appearance. They would then take a screenshot and compare it with the database.
This went on for nearly six hours before Zhou Xilong's convoy finally arrived at the entrance of Liberation Park. After he got out of the truck, he slowly walked into the park accompanied by two bodyguards. It was already 10 AM.
Zhou Xilong was already middle-aged, and the hair at his temples had already turned white. He looked especially solemn in his navy blue suit. The bodyguard next to him was still dispatching personnel through his earpiece. "Position 6 will be filled by a team. Position 7 will be evacuated. The disguise is too fake. Write up a self-criticism report for me when you get back."
This person was clearly Zhou Xilong's "director of internal affairs." All the resources were under his command.
Zhou Xilong sat on a bench in the park, which was 1.2 kilometers away from the nearest high ground. Moreover, those two high-rise buildings were already occupied by the field team's snipers.
However, the person Zhou Xilong wanted to meet did not show up even after a long time. However, Zhou Xilong was not in a hurry. He sat calmly on the bench with his bodyguard standing behind him.
Not only that, but there was also a team of heavily armed special agents on standby in the nearby bushes.
It wasn't until 11 AM that Luo Lan and the others' convoy suddenly appeared at the entrance of the park. That plump figure led 12 of his subordinates and casually walked into the park. It was as though he did not see the plainclothes field agents at all.
Luo Lan was wearing sunglasses while Zhou Qi, who was behind him, was yawning. There was even a lipstick mark on the back of his neck that had not been wiped off.
