Chapter 431: Suspicion

Xu Ze looked at the old man in front of him, who looked a little old, and seemed to be fifty or sixty years old, sighed lightly, remembering the information he had inquired about a long time ago, when he had just learned about his life experience, but his heart was a little heavier.

As expected, although he had been promoted to the fifth level, which was equivalent to the highest top-level S-level force known to have a record now, Xu Ze always had a trace of uneasiness and vigilance in his heart, and he had never really let go of his heart.

This time, an old man came out of nowhere, and they were all masters close to the S-level, just like what the knife said, Xu Ze also agreed, the information I saw last time, there were only two S-level masters recorded, this is definitely just some things on the surface, there must be many masters who have not surfaced.

This old man also has at least A-level and close to S-level strength, that is, it is not too far from Xu Ze, no matter who this person is, why did he suddenly lurk over and make such a ruthless attack on Xu Ze, but this explains a lot of things.

Xu Ze and Xiaodao both thought of a lot at this time...

Looking at the gradually pale face of the old man in front of him, Xu Ze said slowly after a long time: "The knife... We seem to be in big trouble. ”

"Hmm... Truly! Xiaodao also realized some seriousness of the matter at this time, and after a long time, he slowly spit out: "Fortunately, you will soon be level six, I think there should not be many people in this world who can surpass you..."

Xu Ze looked up at the darkness around him and sighed lightly: "No matter what, you still have to try your best to investigate the specific situation."

At least we have to have a bottom in our hearts, the random person who comes to assassinate me is already close to the S-class, I can't imagine how deep the water is down here. What is only two S-class, I guess that's absolutely impossible ... I suspect that anyone who is only afraid of X-class will have..."

Facing Xu Ze's worried appearance, Xiaodao chuckled: "Cruel. You don't have to worry too much, as long as I'm here, even if there is really an SS level, it's only level six, and you won't have much of a problem! ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Dao's voice became a little serious, and said: "It's just that this time someone suddenly came to assassinate you, and it was a master of this level, this trouble is not small..."

"You go check it out... However, I think it has nothing to do with my appointment as deputy director of the War Department this time, and it seems that my occupation of this position is really in the way of many people's eyes! Xu Ze smiled bitterly, it seems that these unknown enemies of his own are really very powerful, even such a master can be mobilized to deal with him, it seems that he really looks up to himself.

"Of course, the other party seems to have made up their minds to wipe you out, so you should be careful in the future. As for the specific situation, I will investigate again..."

Looking at the corpse, Xu Ze twisted his eyebrows slightly, and then said, "Is there a way to deal with the corpse?" ”

"Of course... It's my specialty, decomposing living organisms, it's all too easy! Knife chuckled in the virtual space.

As the laughter of the knife sounded, a spark jumped out of Xu Ze's ring and fell towards the humble corpse.

In an instant, a fierce flame suddenly rose from the corpse, and in just a few seconds, it turned into ashes in the flames and drifted away in the night wind.

On the second day, Xu Ze walked into the General Staff Headquarters to go to work as usual, and in the current environment, the situation in the General Staff Department was naturally as calm as usual.

Along the way, Xu Ze greeted people with a smile as usual, but he bumped into the Director Tao of the Second Intelligence Bureau head-on, and he was also very familiar with this Director Tao Xu Ze, who was in charge of intelligence and planning, and had dealt with this Director Tao a few times.

Although he didn't have much friendship with this Director Tao, Xu Ze also said hello to this Director Tao.

This Director Tao originally strode away thoughtfully, and didn't notice Xu Ze at all, and after hearing Xu Ze's greeting, he habitually smiled and raised his hand to say hello to Xu Ze.

However, when he saw that it was Xu Ze, the expression on his face was stunned, revealing a trace of eccentricity.

But after the strange look on Director Tao's face flashed, he said hello to Xu Ze and left as if nothing happened.

For Xu Ze, whose mental power has reached a considerable level, it is naturally easy to catch a little change in people's expressions, so he also grabbed the trace of strangeness in the other party's expression just now, and after a slight groan, he suddenly sneered.

"Sure enough, it's such a big force, I didn't expect that the situation in the General Staff Department would have such a big problem, no wonder Minister Yang insisted on supporting himself to the top..."

Originally, Xu Ze didn't think that this matter had anything to do with Director Tao, but Xu Ze is now somewhat sure that his assassination yesterday was related to Director Tao.

Before Xu Ze took the position of vice minister, this Major General Tao Zhilong was originally the most popular candidate for this vice minister, but he was suddenly intervened by Xu Ze and fished out this son, and later he got into the position of the second intelligence bureau that Xu Ze was supposed to go up to.

Xu Ze originally thought that although this Tao Zhilong was sometimes a little cold because of his personality, but now he had touched a little bit of the bottom, this Tao Zhilong was only afraid of knowing something, so when he saw himself showing up safely today, he was stunned but he didn't know that he had leaked his mind.

However, Xu Ze naturally didn't bother at this time, he continued to walk towards his office leisurely, and went to his class with peace of mind, as for the things of fear, doubt, and fear, since he couldn't feel it, he had to let his enemies feel it.

Pretending to be mysterious, it also lets those people know that they are powerful, some are suspicious and fearful, and if they have some taboos, they will not dare to be so blatant anymore.

Regarding the assassination, Xu Ze didn't plan to tell Minister Yang Guanglian, after all, the other party was such a master, even if he told Yang Guanglian, it was useless, but as for the others, Xu Ze remembered one person, but smiled...

In the office of the deputy minister of the General Staff Department, Bai Jianguo looked at Tao Zhilong, who had a gloomy face on the other side, and said coldly: "What did you say?" ”

Tao Zhilong turned his head to look at the door and found that the door had indeed been closed, so he lowered his voice and said, "I said that the plan seems to have failed..."

"Failed? How can it be? Bai Jianguo, who was confirmed, was still full of disbelief on his face at this time, and he also lowered his tone and said angrily: "It's impossible to hit with your hands, you have already agreed to do it, how can you fail?" ”

"There's no way they're going to fail!" Speaking of this, Bai Jianguo said confidently and angrily: "Don't doubt their ability!" ”

Looking at Bai Jianguo's confident appearance, Tao Zhilong swallowed his saliva with some difficulty, and then said, "Minister, I just met Xu Ze in the ministry..."

Hearing Tao Zhilong's words, Bai Jianguo was also stunned, his face suddenly gloomy, his eyebrows were tightly twisted, he grabbed a pen and slowly gestured twice, before he looked up at Tao Zhilong and said, "You just met?" ”

"Touched!"

"Hmm... That could be when they postponed the plan! Bai Jianguo nodded and said surely: "Don't worry, don't worry... Since they agreed, then they would definitely complete six in two days

Seeing Bai Jianguo's reply like this, and with a confident look, Tao Zhilong had no choice but to nod, and it was not good to ask again.

After Tao Zhilong left the office, Bai Jianguo sat at his desk and pondered for a long time, then picked up the phone on the table and dialed a number...

"Dut...... Honk...... Beep ......" After the phone rang a few times, a voice with a smug smile rang from the other side: "Minister Bai, I'm very busy today."

"Busy? Not busy... What am I busy with, isn't it just like that..."For this person on the phone, Bai Jianguo didn't dare to offend, although he had something to ask, but he also said with a smile.

"Huh?" However, when the other party heard Bai Jianguo's words, he was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Why, why is the efficiency of your General Staff low now, it's past nine o'clock now, and no one has noticed anything abnormal?" ”

"Anomalous? What anomaly? Hearing the other party's words, Bai Jianguo's heart suddenly swelled up with a trace of malaise, and he hurriedly asked.

"What? The War Department hasn't reported that Xu Ze can't be found? The voice over there also asked with a hint of astonishment.

Hearing this, Bai Jianguo only felt that he was really dizzy this time, and said dumbfounded: "Xu Ze came to work today, didn't you do it yesterday?" ”

"Huh?" The other party seemed to be stunned at this time, and after a while, he said: "Okay, Minister Bai, let me ask, wait for your call next time..."

Bai Jianguo sat anxiously at his desk, staring at the phone above, waiting for the call to come back.

Now he has also found out that something is wrong, with the efficiency and ability of the other party, it should definitely go according to the plan, but yesterday the plan was not completed, what happened...

Five minutes, ten minutes, and fifteen minutes passed, and the phone still didn't ring, and then Bai Jianguo finally got anxious, picked up a lighter, lit a cigarette, and began to play in circles in the office, back and forth.

After waiting for another ten minutes, Bai Jianguo finally couldn't help it, reached out to pick up the phone, and dialed the number just now.

These other parties answered quickly, but it made Bai Jianguo feel a little bad in his heart, the other party's phone was by his side, but he hadn't called for so long, I was afraid that something really went wrong.

Sure enough, that voice came from there, and at this time, Bai Jianguo could even hear a trace of anger and surprise in that voice, and said, "Minister Bai. Something went wrong, the person who was on a different mission yesterday can't be contacted now, don't worry, I'll figure out the situation and call you back as soon as possible..."
