While the troops were camping at night, Han Xiao went to the road ahead of time and chose an ambush spot. He used the corpses of Pan Kuang and Ji Jie as bait. The corpses of the two base leaders would definitely lure Carl out of the car. As long as Carl got out of the car, he would fall into his trap.
He hid on a cliff in the distance and used a booby trap to make the soldiers scatter in all directions. This made the formation more sparse, making it easier for him to aim at Celtic.
Because of the presence of the two corpses, even if he did not show up, the people of Hesla would be able to guess that he was the culprit. Han Xiao did not panic at all because he did not have any concrete evidence. Everything was just a guess. Even if Hesla protested and condemned him, as long as Division 13 did not admit to it, they would not be able to hold him responsible. It was exactly the same as Carl's plan to "accidentally kill" them.
Perhaps the person who assassinated Carl was a fish that escaped from the Dark Crow Valley.
"You like to play dirty, so do I."
Han Xiao pulled the bolt and threw out the smoking shell. He picked it up and put it in his pocket without leaving any trace.
Carl had threatened his life. When the dust settled, it would be time to settle the score. Brother Xiao used to be a player who would fight if he was unconvinced. If someone wanted to kill him, no matter who the other party was, he would definitely fight back without a second thought. He would change his stance and fight back … Pui, he would fight back to the death.
Through the scope, Han Xiao saw that the Hesla troops were in chaos. The soldiers were shocked and angry at the same time. They got on the car and rushed toward the source of the bullet.
Han Xiao folded the sniper rifle and put it in his backpack calmly. He had chosen this location so that it would be easier for him to escape after the assassination.
As soon as he turned around and jumped off the cliff, the feeling of weightlessness hit him. He slammed the button on his backpack, and two thin metal folding wings unfolded from his backpack. They quickly lifted his falling body and glided in the air toward the forest below the cliff.
Cloud Swallow Gliding Wings!
The Hesla soldiers came to the cliff and could only watch as the figure of a swallow disappeared from their sight.
…
The people of Division 13 were shocked. They did not expect Han Xiao to be so daring as to kill the commander of Hesla directly.
Killing a high-ranking military officer in Hesla's territory was no different from killing a high-ranking military officer of Hesla. What was the meaning of this?! There's nothing you don't dare to do!
Qi Bai Jia's heart was in his mouth. He heaved a sigh of relief when he saw the Hesla soldiers returning empty-handed. "It's good that they have escaped. At least they did not leave behind any evidence. That way, there will be room for excuses."
"Wait! If Han Xiao hides and doesn't appear, won't we be the ones to take his place?! "
Everyone's eyes suddenly widened. The more they thought about it, the more they felt that this was something Han Xiao would do.
How could someone cheat to such an extent?! Are you a f * cking scapegoat expert?!
The enraged Hesla soldiers raised their guns and chased the Division 13 members into cars and placed them under house arrest. Hesla was furious when the adjutant reported the news of Carl's death.
The biggest suspect was Division 13, so the Hesla agents had no choice but to interrogate them.
The people of Division 13 insisted that they did not know anything, and the Hesla agents were furious. Winna felt helpless when faced with this group of stubborn Division 13 members.
Everyone knew that Carl was the culprit, but there was no evidence. Not even a bullet shell could be found. They could only interrogate him over and over again in vain. Due to Division 13's identity, they could not use torture to extort a confession. The Hesla agents could only gloss over the condemnation from the higher-ups. This was the dirty trick that Carl had wanted to play. Now, the Hesla agents were feeling helpless.
The intelligence chief of Division 13 took a private jet and quickly arrived at the border of Hesla. Since Stardragon's higher-ups were there, Hesla had no choice but to release the Division 13 agents.
The intelligence chief led everyone out of the interrogation room and returned to the private jet. After confirming that they were all on the same side, he asked Qi Bai Jia to report the details. After listening to the report, Qi Bai Jia said helplessly, "He is too good at causing trouble. Fortunately, he did not leave behind any evidence. Otherwise, the Hesla agents would not let him off so easily."
Qi Bai Jia was embarrassed. He felt that as the staff officer of the team, he had to take responsibility for this.
The intelligence chief looked at him and did not say anything. He secretly recalled the reaction of the bureau when they received the news. They believed that Carl's actions were actually ordered by the higher-ups of Hesla. Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why Hesla had deliberately sent a radical officer to command the operation. They were very dissatisfied with Hesla's insidious actions. However, Hesla had gone for wool and come home shorn. Instead, one of their officers was killed by Han Xiao, and they could only suffer in silence.
"This guy did a good job." The intelligence chief nodded silently. This time, even the hardliners had nothing to say. Instead, they admired Han Xiao's actions. Since he dared to plot against Stardragon, it would be his loss if he did not kill one of their people.
However, admiration was one thing. During the internal meeting not long ago, the department heads unanimously agreed that they should not continue to indulge Han Xiao. They said that they should not let Han Xiao out of their sight again. If an accident happened to a valuable source of intelligence, the losses would outweigh the gains.
All along, Han Xiao had been very cooperative, so they had been more tolerant of Han Xiao. However, this joint operation had gone wrong, and it was a wake-up call for them. They were determined to reject all of Han Xiao's future operations.
This proposal was unanimously passed, and even the conservatives agreed. The bureau was willing to cooperate with Han Xiao, but before he gave them all the information, they could not let him out of the control of the headquarters.
The intelligence chief collected his thoughts and glanced at the team of agents. He then lowered his head and looked at his watch. "Why is Han Xiao not back yet?" he asked.
Qi Bai Jia shook his head. "I don't know."
"Brother Xiao contacted me." At this time, Lin Yao suddenly pressed on his earpiece and looked excited. However, in the next second, his expression suddenly changed.
The intelligence chief had a bad feeling and asked, "What did he say?"
Lin Yao gulped and stammered, "Brother Xiao said … he went out to lie low for a while."
"Lie low for a while? That's understandable. "The intelligence chief nodded subconsciously. Suddenly, he realized something and his expression changed." He's not coming back? "
Zhang Wei was in disbelief. Li Ya Lin's eyes widened. Lambert's pupils constricted.
Everyone was shocked.
This was the rhythm of going solo!
There was nothing that he did not dare to do!
…
Twenty minutes later, at the headquarters of Division 13, Gu Hui called for an emergency meeting. The chiefs who were not in the headquarters joined the meeting. Everyone had a serious expression on their faces.
"Han Xiao ran away!" Gu Hui said solemnly.
Everyone was stunned.
"Did he betray us?"
"I'm not sure. Before this, he killed a Hesla officer. Perhaps he was afraid of the consequences, so he ran away. However, the probability of this happening is not high," the intelligence chief said.
The chiefs felt a headache coming on. This reason was not valid. Did Han Xiao think that Stardragon could not protect him? Did he underestimate them?
"What about the GPS device installed in his phone?"
"It was left at a location twenty-four hours ago. Han Xiao found it and threw it away," the internal affairs chief said.
"This is a betrayal. He can't have gone far. He could only have gone to the wilderness. We must catch him!"
"We can't confirm if he betrayed us yet." Gu Hui waved his hand.
The chiefs were silent. They had planned to wait for him to come back and then keep Han Xiao under control. However, Han Xiao's unexpected escape had completely disrupted their plans.
Did he plan this from the beginning? Or did he just do it on the spur of the moment?
Was this a betrayal, or was there another reason?
If an agent went missing, and they couldn't confirm whether it was because of defection or other reasons, the first thing to do was to send someone to track down the other party's tracks and make contact with the target. Through the other party's reaction, they could determine what plan to use.
If the target continued to escape or resist, they would be hunted down globally.
If the target had a reasonable reason, this would prevent misunderstandings and wrongful killings.
The intelligence chief suddenly said, "Latest news, the Germinal Organization on the dark web has increased the bounty on Han Xiao by five times, to five million!"
Everyone was shocked. On the surface, this was a joint operation between two countries. How did the Germinal Organization know that Han Xiao was the mastermind? Was there a mole?
The increase in the bounty meant that the Germinal Organization was more determined to kill him. Furthermore, the Germinal Organization had determined that Han Xiao was in the West Capital. Could Han Xiao have chosen to leave because of this?
However, was he not afraid of being targeted by the Germinal Organization in the wilderness and being hunted down by the Germinal Organization? In the wilderness, the Germinal Organization would not have so many concerns. They could directly bombard the area with missiles.
"He came to Stardragon to seek protection. Why did he suddenly have the guts to leave now?"
The chief's question was the same as everyone else's.
Gu Hui tapped his fingers on the table and decided on the result of this meeting. "We will keep his identity as an agent for the time being and classify him as a missing person. The intelligence department will collect surveillance data, entry and exit records, airport flight records, and train records. We will try to contact Han Xiao and send a search team to find him first!"
"Seconded."
"Seconded."
"Seconded."
…
On the return flight, the agents of Division 13 frequently glanced at Zhang Wei and the other three sitting in the corner. That was the center of the atmosphere.
Zhang Wei's hands were crossed over his nose. His face was solemn, and the veins on his forehead were pulsating.
Lambert silently wiped his dagger and did not say a word.
Li Ya Lin's face was filled with anxiety and resentment. She kept shaking her legs, and her black tights outlined the beautiful outline of her long legs.
Lin Yao sat in a corner, trembling in fear. He wanted to stay away from the three of them, but he did not dare to do so.
"This is too much! He just left like that. Does he think of us as his teammates? " Li Ya Lin slammed the table. The sound was so loud that it shocked the other agents who were eavesdropping.
Zhang Wei covered half of his face with his hands. His eyes were as lifeless as a salted fish. He said softly, "He modified my armor … no one else knows how to fix it."
"…"
The eavesdropping agents did not know how to comfort Zhang Wei. This was a sad story …
Li Ya Lin gritted her teeth and said, "He wants me to help him take on business. There are dozens of orders backlogged, and I even gave him the deposit. What am I supposed to do?"
The surrounding agents were stunned. Suddenly, they remembered that they had placed orders as well …
F * ck!
Our deposit!
"I vouched for him with my reputation. That scammer!" Li Ya Lin's tone was like that of a resentful woman who had been abandoned. She grabbed Lin Yao's arm and pinched it to vent her anger.
Lin Yao sucked in a breath of cold air and jumped away like a rabbit. He rubbed the area where he was pinched and said hurriedly, "Calm down, calm down …"
Lambert suddenly asked, "Do you guys know who he is?"
The three of them were stunned.
They had been on the same team for so long, but they still did not know Han Xiao's true identity. That guy was always so mysterious. He had never revealed any clues about his identity in front of his teammates. Even the higher-ups kept it a secret.
For a moment, everyone was depressed.
Li Ya Lin clenched her fists so tightly that her knuckles cracked. She said fiercely, "When I find him, I'll definitely beat him up!"
