In a dark room, a tea cup with steaming mist was placed quietly beside the table. Amidst the crisp sound of pressing keys, the fingers of both hands danced phantomly. The computer screen in front of them, exuding a shimmering light, kept switching and jumping at an extremely fast frequency until it was frozen in place.
The fifth forum page.
Exhaling, pushing away the keyboard, Tang Chao leaned back on his chair and picked up the tea cup.
A few days have passed, and the expected harvest has been very little...
There are no secrets in the underground world. This makes sense. Because people living in this world, regardless of the righteous and evil order camps, almost all have a heart to pry into other people's privacy. Don't think of this as too obscene, it's just
It's just work, how can we act without intelligence? How can we target the target if we don't know the weaknesses of the target? How can we effectively resist if we don't have as much information about the opponent as possible? Reasons and requirements such as this leave secrets with nowhere to hide.
However, it is worth mentioning that these secrets or intelligence information often have a certain lag. This is not difficult to understand. After all, it is an underground world. It may not be completely hidden after the fact, but as things progress,
During the process, great attention should be paid to confidentiality, which is related to the success of subsequent actual actions, and there is no room for carelessness. As for being exposed afterwards, it actually doesn't matter. You have already succeeded, so let others talk about it.
This is the problem that the Tang Dynasty is facing now. He knows that there is danger coming into Lingjiang, and even knows who the other party is, but the key information such as what the other party wants to do and when to take action is completely blank.
It's like a time bomb lurking around you. The model of the bomb and the consequences of the explosion are very clear, but you don't know where it is hidden and when it will suddenly detonate... This is not a good feeling.
But there was nothing to be done about it. After all, manpower was exhausted. The Tang Dynasty paid great attention to its environment and had several small means of exploration outside. However, compared to the large area and population of Lingjiang River, it was undoubtedly still beyond its capabilities.
This kind of large-scale search work can never be done by one person or a team. What is needed is a huge machine that operates normally and a network of influence that has been established over time.
For example, the rise of Kyushu.
Tang Chao did not notify the other side because it was not necessary. On the night after returning from the airport that day, he invaded the Kyushu Rise intranet. Well, this was also one of his methods to prevent danger... The other party had already hacked into it a few days ago.
I noticed a group of unknown people coming in, and seemed to have sacrificed a secret line for this. At the southern suburbs dock, this should be the work of the Poison Arrow mercenary group who smuggled in, because the black lightning came in scattered through normal channels, otherwise it would not have passed.
I didn't get the weapon for several days.
As for the current progress on the Rise of Kyushu, the specifics are not clear, but judging from the information entered into the system, it seems that there is not much progress... This is not surprising. It is a game of cat and mouse, and cats who occasionally catch mice
I’ve seen them all, but have you ever seen a cat that can catch mice every day? It’s not that efficient, and besides, it’s a group of mice that should have been startled...
This brings us to Tang Chao's gains. Although he was extremely passive, he did not do anything these days. Not to mention anything else, he only scared away the black thunder and lightning, which invisibly eliminated a huge hidden danger.
Edison and the classic car were still sensible and could not do anything when things happened. They took everyone on the flight that afternoon. At the Lingjiang Suburban Airport, Tang Chao personally saw them off the plane. At the boarding gate, Tang Chao also saw them.
Seeing Edison's relieved expression, he thought that he would never want to set foot in the Chinese territory again in this life...
Of course, as a price, the Poison Arrow Mercenary Group and the mysterious employer will definitely become more vigilant, and there is nothing they can do about it.
The latter is indeed mysterious, and the Tang Dynasty did not find any clues. However, he found some information about the Poison Arrow Mercenary Group. There are about forty or fifty members, mostly Asians, and it is a mature team.
It also has a certain reputation in the industry, at least much better than Black Thunder. It seems to adopt a team combat mode. Not all members came this time because there is another team active in the Middle East. There are about a dozen people coming to Lingjiang.
In this way, it won’t exceed Double Ten, and the captain King Cobra will personally lead the team.
King Cobra is an Asian, his specific nationality is unclear, that is to say, his origin is unknown. He is over thirty years old. He may not sound old, but he is actually a solid old mercenary. He has been around longer than his hairline.
The taller the Edison is, the earlier he is. He is proficient in various firearms, driving, and commanding in battle. He is active in chaos-prone areas around the world and is truly a veteran who has survived hundreds of battles.
This person had never interacted with him when he was a mercenary in his previous life in the Tang Dynasty, or he might have interacted with him secretly without knowing it. After all, it was a chaotic battlefield. Who knew who the bullets fired from his gun were aimed at. He only said that there was no such thing as face-to-face communication.
, I have heard of the Poison Arrow Mercenary Group, but I didn’t pay attention to it, and there is no need to care. Before the Tang Dynasty’s strength rose, everyone was a big boss. After his strength grew, everyone was a scumbag...
Who cares about the so-called name? It's not important.
After finishing a cup of tea, there was some noise in the hall outside the door. Tang Chao's ears moved and he instantly switched the screen interface. What appeared was the screen of Happy Landlords. He clicked to start a game.
The study door opened behind him, and when he turned around, he saw Tangdou in cute pink pajamas. The little girl rubbed her sleepy eyes: "Brother, are you still not asleep?"
"Well, I haven't lost all the beans today, so I always feel like I'm losing money."
"How can it be calculated like this... Then you should go to bed after losing earlier."
"Come on, come on, this one is doubled, either the bicycle will turn into a motorcycle, or you will go bankrupt and get into bed!" Tang Chao waved his hand, looking very impressive.
"Ha, come on." The little girl also waved her fist, then couldn't help but yawned, muttering that I should go to bed first, then closed the door and left, returning to the house. She probably realized something belatedly,
The door opened again, and I went to the bathroom...
By the time the little girl came out of the bathroom, the Tang Dynasty had successfully gone through a life of bankruptcy, crimes other than war, the consequences of being forced to call the landlord with bad cards, and a life of suspicion after being bombed... He sighed and was about to close his laptop when he thought of something.
I switched back to the previously dense window and found an interface.
It was an unknown online mailbox address abroad. The content of the opened email was two English words commonly used around the world, concise and to the point - Fake, squid!
"You're crazy..." he muttered softly, and Tang Chao looked confused.
This email was sent half a month ago, and I only saw it today, because this was the email that Tang Chao used to communicate with the temporary middleman when he went on a mission last year. After those three tasks were completed, the two parties lost contact. This email
Naturally, it was abandoned by the Tang Dynasty. If he hadn't thought about whether someone would find something from this mailbox, and habitually set up a warning trap, and occasionally come up to take a look, he probably would not have seen this email.
.
The originator of this email and the content of the vulgar words came from that temporary middleman.
Just tell me, is this a lunatic? You agreed not to contact me, and then you came back to me a few months later and wanted to have sex with me without saying a word?
Nothing is that cheap!
Tang Chao typed a question mark expressionlessly and was about to click send. He thought about it and deleted it. He closed his notebook and said, "I don't care if you die..."
※※※※※※
At the same time, somewhere in Lingjiang, the same dark room, the same dimly lit screen.
A thin figure as tall as a bamboo pole sat in front of a laptop, staring at the criss-crossing lines on the interface. It seemed to be a fund stock software. It was red and green and a bit complicated. It was not easy to understand, except for those few lines.
Infinite decline, a downward parabola...
Bang, a heavy punch hit the table, causing the laptop to tremble.
He roared angrily, "Shit——" His withered chest rose and fell violently several times, as if he was furious, his black robe was pushed up, he closed the laptop with a snap, the light source disappeared, he sat quietly in the dark room for a while, and took out
I dialed the phone and fumbled in my throat again,
"Plan ahead, start in three days." A slightly distorted voice with a voice changer.
There was no pretense on the other end of the phone, but his voice was extremely cold and without any warmth, "Okay, that's exactly what I want to say. Kyushu Rise is chasing closely. The previous hiding place has been discovered. If it continues, I can't guarantee it."
We won't be discovered."
"That was an accident... You said you contacted Black Thunder before. What did you gain?"
"No, he's hiding something, but it's just what I want. It's a good thing for you and me to have one less group of people to share the money with."
"Indeed, but I need to remind you that no matter what other plans you have, you must act quickly. I am not worried about the rise of Kyushu, but I am worried about another person..." Under the hood, the strange pupils flickered, as if he had thought of something.
Looks a little apprehensive.
"You mean the ghost who has been more active recently? Have you dealt with him?"
"We can't talk about it, we just looked at each other from a distance... He is very strong. I suspect that Black Thunder's abnormal behavior of running away without a fight has something to do with him."
"I know." The cold voice also revealed a bit of solemnity, "I collected his intelligence information before coming here, Banshanjin, the Nightmare Team, a sniper rifle to intimidate the entire night... I have made several attempts without failure. For
We will not be careless against such an opponent."
