Chapter 606: Opportunity to change destiny
The young man paused, turned around and smiled politely: "Uncle, thank you for your hard work. I do have an important appointment to attend."
"Oh? You look like this, you don't look like you are going on a date." The uncle teased, the broom in his hand stopped in mid-air, looking at him with interest.
The young man touched the tip of his nose awkwardly: "It's not a date, it's an opportunity that may change my destiny."
"Oh, that's not a small tone. Then you have to be careful, people in this world are unpredictable." The uncle reminded him sincerely, and then got back to the cleaning work.
The young man nodded gratefully and accelerated towards his destination - No. XX, XX Street. Behind him, the uncle looked at his fading figure and whispered to himself: "It's great to be young and have the courage to chase the unknown. I hope he can get his wish."
Arriving at the door of the used bookstore, the young man took a deep breath and pushed open the creaking wooden door. The lights in the store were dim, with only the desk lamp in the corner illuminating the rows of old books. He followed the text message prompts and walked towards the deepest bookshelf.
"You're here." A cold and familiar voice came from the shadows. The young man took a closer look and suddenly found Enjing leaning against the bookshelf. She was still wearing a retro windbreaker and a wide-brimmed hat, but her sunglasses had been taken off, and she was looking directly at him with sharp eyes.
"Eunjing...you came to me for a new mission?" The young man pretended to be calm, trying to cover up his inner nervousness.
A meaningful smile appeared on Enjing's lips: "Yes, your reaction is very fast. This mission is more challenging and dangerous than any before."
"What is it?" the young man asked eagerly.
"Remember the 'Violet Project' mentioned last time? We have received intelligence that it is not an isolated incident, but is inextricably linked to a transnational criminal organization called the 'Sea Serpent Group'. This group is involved in drug trafficking, Its influence spreads across the world in many illegal fields such as money laundering and arms trading, and it even has secret cooperation with some high-level governments. ”
The young man took a breath, shocked by the huge power and evil deeds of the "Sea Serpent Group". He calmed down and asked seriously: "What do you need me to do?"
Enjing walked up to him and said softly: "We need you to use your identity as a reporter to penetrate into the 'Sea Snake Group' and obtain first-hand information, especially evidence about their collusion with the political circles. This is how we dismantle this criminal empire." The key.”
"Breaking inside? This is too dangerous!" the young man blurted out, obviously extremely worried about this proposal.
Enjing stared at him with a serious tone: "I know this is very demanding and may even endanger your life. But if you refuse, we will lose an excellent opportunity, and countless innocent people will continue to live in the 'Sea Serpent Group' Are you willing to take the risk?"
The young man was silent for a moment, with firm eyes: "I am willing to try. But before that, I need more information and training to ensure the success rate of the operation."
Enjing nodded with satisfaction: "Wise choice. I have arranged everything. Tomorrow night, I will send someone to take you to a secret base for special training. Remember, from now on, your life will be highly confidential. , any contact with the outside world must be handled with caution.”
The young man nodded vigorously. Although the road ahead was full of thorns, he was determined to meet the challenge and fight for justice.
The next night, the young man followed the instructions and came to an abandoned factory. The lights are brightly lit here, and a group of skilled agents are conducting actual combat exercises. Enjing stood aside and motioned for the young man to come over.
"Welcome to our temporary base." Enjing introduced. "In the next week, you will receive high-intensity physical training, spy skills learning and simulated actual combat exercises here. Remember, it is up to you to survive and complete the mission. The only mission.”
The young man gritted his teeth, faced Eun Jing's expectant eyes, and embarked on this journey of life and death.
A week later, the young man who had gone through brutal training had a completely new look. He transformed into a financial reporter. With his excellent social skills and rich professional knowledge, he successfully broke into an investment company under the "Sea Serpent Group" and gradually approached the core level.
At a high-level cocktail party, the young man happened to meet the second-in-command of the "Sea Serpent Group" - the cunning and insidious Jason Holt. The two chatted happily. Holt admired the young man's talent and intended to win him over to become his confidant.
"Mr. Li, your knowledge and courage are impressive." Holt raised his glass to invite you to drink, with admiration and vigilance in his eyes. "In the business world, we all need reliable allies. Are you willing to work with me to achieve great things?" ”
The young man kept his composure and responded with a smile: "Mr. Holt is exaggerating. I am just an ordinary financial reporter. I am lucky enough to be exposed to your company's business. Naturally, I hope to have an in-depth understanding and report. As for allies, I think as long as our It’s okay to have the same interests.”
Holt laughed loudly and patted the young man on the shoulder: "I like your straightforwardness. If you need anything in the future, feel free to come to me."
After the cocktail party, the young man quickly passed the collected information to Eunjing. They met in a secret stronghold to jointly analyze these clues and gradually uncover the shady story of the "Sea Snake Group"'s collusion with the political circles.
"Well done, Mr. Li." Enjing praised, "You have successfully aroused Holt's interest. Next, we have to try to get him to reveal more inside information, especially the specific details of their transactions with high-level government officials. ”
The young man frowned and thought: "I'm afraid this will not be easy. Holt is extremely cunning and cautious. He will not reveal secrets easily unless he has absolute trust."
Enjing smiled slightly and took out a delicate little device from her bag: "Don't worry, we have a secret weapon - this advanced monitor. As long as you can find a suitable opportunity to implant it in Holt's private office , we can monitor his conversations in real time and obtain the required information.”
The young man took the monitor, his eyes flashing with excitement and determination: "I understand. I will find an appropriate time to place it, but before that, I need to further win Holt's trust."
A few days later, an investment summit hosted by the "Sea Snake Group" was held grandly at a five-star hotel. With his outstanding performance, the young man won Holt's favor and was invited to attend the VIP dinner of the summit. At the dinner, there was a lot of drinking and celebrities gathered. Holt was very happy and chatted and laughed with various political and business dignitaries.
Taking advantage of Holt's absence, the young man quickly sneaked into his private lounge and cleverly installed the monitor in a hidden place under his desk. After finishing, he quietly exited and returned to the banquet as if nothing had happened, socializing with the guests.
In the following weeks, Enjing's team intercepted a large amount of valuable information through the monitor, including secret meeting records between the "Sea Serpent Group" and many government officials, details of financial transactions, and plans for upcoming major criminal activities. These irrefutable materials laid a solid foundation for the complete destruction of the "Sea Snake Group".
Late one night, the young man received an urgent call from Eun Jung and rushed to the secret stronghold. There, Eun-jeong was meeting with senior police detective Ryan Sean, with a thick stack of documents spread out on the table.
"Mr. Li, based on the information you provided, we have obtained enough evidence, and we will take a large-scale closing operation against the 'Sea Snake Group' tonight." Ruian looked serious and his eyes were bright, "Your mission is to continue to stay in Stay with Holt and cooperate with us to control him after the operation begins.”
The young man nodded in agreement, feeling nervous and excited at the same time. He knew that the moment of this decisive battle had finally arrived.
As night falls, under the neon lights of the bustling city, a carefully planned anti-crime operation quietly begins. Dozens of police cars quietly surrounded the headquarters of the "Sea Serpent Group", and special forces members climbed the building as nimbly as a cheetah, preparing for a raid.
At this time, in Holt's office, he was plotting the next stage of the criminal plan with several senior executives. The young people participated in the discussion calmly on the surface, but inside they were beating like drums. He paid close attention to the police action instructions coming from the earphones, waiting for the best opportunity.
Suddenly, Enjing's calm voice came from the earphones: "The action has begun, Mr. Li, you can take action."
The young man took a deep breath, excused himself from the conference room, and quickly returned to Holt's office. He found the right moment, subdued Holt with lightning speed, and at the same time notified the police commandos waiting outside to enter.
A few minutes later, the entire building was under full police control, and all the main members of the "Sea Snake Group" were arrested. Holt stared at everything in front of him, unable to believe that the criminal empire he had carefully built fell apart overnight.
The media reported overwhelmingly on this anti-crime operation that shocked the country, and citizens cheered and celebrated the victory of justice. Although the young man's name has not been made public, the key role he played in the secret has long been remembered by Enjing's team and the police.
A few months later, the court held a public hearing on the cases related to the "Sea Serpent Group", and many officials and criminals involved were punished as they deserved. Social morale has been boosted, and public confidence in the rule of law has been at an all-time high.
One evening, the young man was walking alone on a familiar street and came across the cleaner who had talked to him before. The uncle recognized him at a glance and greeted him warmly: "Young man, long time no see. What have you been busy with recently?"
The young man smiled slightly and looked at the sunset in the distance: "Uncle, I have been doing some meaningful things, hoping to make the world a better place."
The uncle nodded with satisfaction and said earnestly: "Well done, kid. Remember, no matter when and where, we must stick to justice, because that is the cornerstone of our lives."
The young man nodded silently, his heart full of strength and belief.
With the destruction of the "Sea Serpent Group", the city temporarily returned to tranquility, but Enjing and her team did not relax their vigilance. They know well that there will always be new evil forces rising in the dark world, and those remaining parties may also be waiting for opportunities to retaliate. Therefore, they continued to lurk in the dark, closely monitoring all suspicious movements.
On this day, Enjing received a message from an anonymous informant, saying that a new underground force was quietly rising. Its leader was called the "Shadow". He acted extremely low-key and had ruthless methods. He was very likely to become the next one. "Sea Serpent Group". Enjing immediately summoned Xu Mo, Xia Lan and Li Yang to hold an emergency meeting to study response strategies.
"We must find out the true identity of the 'Shadow' and their specific action plan as soon as possible." Enjing looked solemn and tapped her fingers on the table. "Especially pay attention to whether they are related to the 'Sea Serpent Group', or whether they have Higher political context ”
Everyone nodded in agreement, and then divided their work and cooperated, and each invested in the investigation. Li Yang is responsible for digging for relevant information through news media and social media, Xu Mo uses hacking skills to invade the database of potential targets, and Xia Lan relies on her black and white connections to collect intelligence.
A few days later, Li Yang discovered a key clue in an inconspicuous community forum post. A netizen claimed to have witnessed a strange underground transaction. One of the parties was wearing a black skull mask and was suspected to be a member of the "Shadow". The transaction takes place in an abandoned chemical factory on the outskirts of the city, tonight.
Enjing and others took action immediately after hearing the news and decided to take this opportunity to find out the details of "Shadow". They dressed up in disguise and drove to the designated location, intending to conduct peripheral reconnaissance first and then wait for an opportunity to go deeper.
The night was dark, and the area around the chemical plant was deserted. Only a few scattered lights in the distance dotted the lonely night sky. Enjing and his party took advantage of the terrain to get closer and peeked inside the factory through the dilapidated windows. In the dark space, several people wearing skull masks were sitting around a table piled with cash and various items. One of them was tall and imposing, and he was obviously the "Shadow".
Just then, an accident happened. A wild cat suddenly burst out of the grass and made a shrill cry. The alert "Shadow" members instantly noticed something unusual and drew their guns and pointed out the window. Enjing and others were caught off guard and forced to be exposed.
"There are people! Catch them!" The leader of "Shadow" roared, and his men quickly rushed out of the factory and chased in all directions. Enjing, Xu Mo, Xia Lan and Li Yang were divided into two groups, each drawing away the pursuers and buying time to retreat.
During the fierce battle, Enjing met the leader of the "Shadow" on a narrow road. The two were at war with each other, fighting for several rounds in a flash of lightning. Eun-jeong has strong skills and fierce offensive, but the strength of the "Shadow" leader cannot be underestimated. In addition, his men continue to besiege Eun-jeong, and Eun-jeong gradually becomes unable to do what he wants.
"Bang!" A gunshot pierced the night sky. Enjing couldn't avoid it. Her shoulder was grazed by the bullet, and her clothes were instantly dyed red with blood. She endured the pain and fought back, knocking the "Shadow" leader to the ground with all her strength, and then escaped from the scene with the help of Xu Mo.
After escaping to a safe area, Enjing's wound continued to bleed, and her face was as pale as paper. Li Yang was extremely anxious and took out the first aid kit he carried with him to apply a bandage to stop the bleeding. Xia Lan contacted the secret medical team and requested emergency support.
