The tunnel is under the abandoned 102 factory. It used to be a steel mill, but it has become deserted due to urban expansion and the relocation of polluting businesses.

It rained lightly in the afternoon and cleared up towards evening. It's twelve o'clock in the night, the clouds are open and the moon is bright, and you can even see a few stars.

The Minister of Serious Speech - the head of the Action Department of the Promotion Association - stood at the door of the abandoned factory. From here, you can see the skyline of the bustling downtown area. The lights are shining, reflecting half the sky.

Serious Sheng walked behind him and tightened his coat in the wind of the autumn night: "Chen, Li Qingyan said something, it should sound true." ”

Minister Chan is smoking. Turning slightly to look at him, she handed him one as well.

"So should he be okay?"

Serious Sheng took the cigarette and only held it in his hand. He thought for a moment and sighed, "I want to think so too." But what we're doing now, we all know how big the stakes are – we can't take risks. ”

Minister Chen smiled and said humorously: "Then Lao Yan, you want to tear up the horse." ”

The serious student laughed with him: "I want to hear the minister's opinion." ”

Minister Chen took the half-lit cigarette, smiled faintly, and looked into the distance: "Look at this Beishan City, the lights are bright, and it looks like the people are living and working in peace and contentment." But in fact, I advise the Heavenly Father to be vigorous and reduce talents without sticking to one pattern -- Lao Yan, you can realize it yourself. ”

Seriousness sighed inwardly. He actually knew about Minister Chen—in fact, it was the mouthpiece of the mysterious chairman. He also knew that the minister was fond of talking about metaphysical things, and of telling others to understand for themselves. However, what he said, such as what he just said, is difficult to "understand" thoroughly. And in fact, it's all meaningless nonsense.

This guy is just afraid of being held accountable - even if it's a small operative in the Operations Division.

Serious Sheng thought about it for a while, and had to say again: "Chen Bu, can you instruct me - what is the relationship between killing that girl named star fruit and killing Pei Bolu? Knowing this, I can decide whether to kill or stay." If that girl is very important, you can also use Li Qingyan to lure her out. ”

Minister Chen took a puff of his cigarette and spit it out again. The smoke made him look unfathomable: "This matter, without violating the principles of the organization, I can give you a thorough understanding, let you eat a reassuring pill, and calm your heart." ”

"You don't have to worry about star fruit. The operation to eliminate Peberu this time is a very large arrangement, and all departments have a division of labor, cooperate with each other, and are under the unified command of the higher level. However, in order to prevent leakage, information is not shared between each operational unit. As for your Beishan Operations Division, you only need to be responsible for one thing-"

He turned around and looked at the serious student solemnly: "It's the matter of the desolate soul." Find it, capture it. ”

This was already said by the minister when he came in the afternoon. The serious student realized that he had said a lot of words, but still did not answer his own question. He had to ponder for a moment: "Chenbu, I suspect that there are indeed people from the Special Intelligence Agency lurking within us—on my side. Someone from the Secret Intelligence Bureau, or someone from the Sect Bureau. ”

"The last time I assassinated Peberu at the New Century Mall, everything was ready, but he suddenly changed his itinerary. When he was fifteen minutes late, he went on stage to cut the ribbon, and he already had three layers of prohibitions on his body - no one knew what happened in those fifteen minutes. But then three of my men were killed on the spot by the Secret Service, and two of the contact points were terminated. This kind of thing...... There is no inner ghost who can't say it. ”

"Zhou Gongzi of Yuanshan asked someone to inquire about him this time, but he didn't mean to reveal his identity. It's just that Zhou Gongzi accidentally said something when he asked someone, and we got the news. From this point of view, there is a high probability that Li Qingyan is a member of the Secret Service. ”

Minister Chen nodded slightly: "So, you just said that he told the truth?"

Serious Sheng sighed and smiled: "He is telling the truth. He always told the truth—but only partially. ”

Minister Chen laughed: "It's an interesting young man." ”

He seemed to be interested, pondered for a moment, and said unprecedentedly: "Old Yan, I personally give you a suggestion. ”

—leave him behind. If he's from the Secret Service, he'll be counted. Through him, the wrong information is conveyed to the Secret Service, and you can avoid the risk and the danger of the army. If he isn't, then the real Secret Service guy will let his guard down during this time, and it will be easier for you to get him out. ”

Serious Sheng was slightly stunned.

Because this is the seven years he has worked with this Minister Chen...... For the first time, this man stood in a "personal" position and said something meaningful.

What's wrong with him today?

"That's what it is...... What is the opinion of the chairman?" asked solemnly and cautiously.

Minister Chen smiled and shook his head: "You take it as my personal opinion. Lao Yan, which ......"

He took a deep breath and looked up at the starry sky, with some pride on his face: "Our power is developing. Think about it ten years ago, the highest-ranking monk in the organization was only level six. I'm already a level five, and even two level fours. This shows that we are developing – the Dharma of practice will no longer be monopolized by the authorities in the near future. And I, more comrades, will be promoted—"

He suddenly stopped. His eyes blinked quickly, and he fell straight to the ground. The main entrance of the ironworks was a slope, and he rolled down like a stake, stiff from head to toe.

The warning immediately jumped out of the serious student's heart. But he didn't move.

Minister Chen was indeed a genuine fifth-level monk, but he just fell. This means that the force that attacked him was something that he, an ordinary person, could not compete with.

The next moment, a foot stepped on Minister Chen's body and told him to stop.

Serious Sheng saw the figure of a young man emerge from Minister Chen's side.

"You are unusually bold. At this time、In this kind of place、Smoking。 The young man laughed and said, "If he doesn't want to catch it alive, his head will bloom." I'm Pei Yuanxiu—what level are you in the Promotion Association?"

Two other figures also appeared beside him. One was an elderly monk wearing a gray robe. There was still a faint glow on the tips of his fingers hanging on his side, and it was obvious that he had just cast a spell - a single blow would make a fifth-level monk lose the ability to resist.

The other has a palm-sized tablet computer in his hand, and is pointing on it.

Suddenly there was a bright light in the night sky, and four drones lit up the entire factory area in the sky. The serious student heard two short shouts in the distance, but they stopped abruptly. That's his people, they should have been "unplugged".
