The mission this time was indeed different from what was reported. Lu Zhaoying had also reported it, but he couldn’t wait for the reinforcements to arrive.

He had considered leaving Pan Mingyue and the others at the base. Even if they died, they would die in front of the Inspection Institute.

Thinking of this, he turned his head to look at Pan Mingyue.

To be honest, even after so many years, he still had no idea what Pan Mingyue was thinking. Compared to Qin Ran, her mind seemed even more untouchable. He only realized that she was a few years younger than him when he sent her to school.

Lu Zhaoying and the others drove a van, crowded with seven or eight people, and no one here would dare to stop them.

He pressed Pan Mingyue to the last place by the window and asked, “What did you discover?”

Pan Mingyue spread out her palms to show a piece of paper rolled up in a cigarette. “I found it in the area.”

“Turn on the light.” Lu Zhaoying took the paper and looked at it. “It’s the map and signal left by Xiao Luo.”

Xiao Luo was the undercover agent this time. He was only 16 years old and had followed another old man in the team. Since last night, they couldn’t contact Xiao Luo and the old man, which was why Lu Zhaoying was so urgent.

He remained silent after asking this and didn’t ask Pan Mingyue why she had to follow him.

As the car drove forward, the people inside discussed combat methods, occasionally asking Lu Zhaoying for instructions.

If it had been in the past, they might have been surprised by how Lu Zhaoying had broken the rules and taken Pan Mingyue along. They might have admired Pan Mingyue for quickly discovering something left behind by Xiao Luo. However, the situation was so urgent now that they simply didn’t have time to think about it.

Today, they weren’t here to suppress bandits, but to save people. Although Lu Zhaoying didn’t have enough manpower, these men weren’t ordinary people. Now that Pan Mingyue had successfully found the map left by Xiao Luo and the others, they had a success rate of 50%.

The other party was originally a habitual international criminal. The base camp was at the border, and he was involved in several anti-drug cases in the country, making him a big wanted criminal. It wasn’t until today that Xiao Luo and the others discovered the place.

The car stopped at the intersection.

They divided into two groups, and Lu Zhaoying directly gave an order, “Old Seven, provide support with Old Eight and Team Leader Pan. We’ll go in to rescue them. Communicate with us through the communicator at any time.”

Time was urgent, and no one knew what had happened to Xiao Luo and the others. Lu Zhaoying didn’t have time to give other instructions.

“Boss, when you come back, invite us to a drink!” Old Seven and Old Eight raised their hands and solemnly said, “Remember to tell Sixth Bro that his wife gave birth to a son.”

After Lu Zhaoying and the others left, Old Seven took out the computer and opened a panel. Several red dots were moving on it, tracking the whereabouts of Lu Zhaoying and the others.

Pan Mingyue didn’t add any confusion to them and didn’t ask much either. She silently listened to their conversation and inferred the specific course of action tonight from their words.

After half an hour, while leaning on the car door with her arms folded, she suddenly looked forward.

“Team Leader Pan, you…” Old Seven put down the computer, noticing Pan Mingyue’s strange reaction. He was about to ask further when a small explosion occurred where Pan Mingyue was looking.

It was in the direction Lu Zhaoying and the others had left.

“Boss, how are you guys?” Old Seven quickly pressed the communicator on his left ear and asked urgently.

Lu Zhaoying sounded very calm. “Xiao Luo has already come over with the USB flash drive. Cover him and leave immediately with Team Leader Pan. Retreat with Old Zhang to the airport!”

Old Seven stood up abruptly and looked forward. He saw a dark figure running towards them, presumably Xiao Luo. “Boss, what about you?”

As soon as he finished asking, the communication connection was broken.

“Shit!” He slammed the car fiercely. After checking that Xiao Luo had returned, he made a decision. “Xiao Seven, take them back first. I’ll provide support for Boss!”

“I’ll go!” When Old Eight heard this, he quickly grabbed him. “You just got married, your wife is still waiting for you at home. You can’t go.”

Both of them knew that if only Xiao Luo had escaped, the situation inside was probably not good.

“By the way.” Ignoring Old Eight, Old Seven turned to Xiao Luo and looked down at his five broken fingers. “Where’s Sixth Bro?”

“Sixth Bro… Sixth Bro is dead.” Xiao Luo looked up, trembling. “I was discovered, and I was the one who stole the transaction records…”

The two of them patted Xiao Luo on the shoulder. “We’re proud of you.”

This wasn’t the time to feel sad. If they made a careless move, then Sixth Bro’s sacrifice would be in vain.

Old Seven and Old Eight were still arguing over who would provide support for Lu Zhaoying. They both knew that if they went this time, they might never return.

“Neither of you can go.” Pan Mingyue, who had been standing by the door of the car silently, finally raised her head and turned to Old Seven. “You…” Old Seven stared at her.

Pan Mingyue calmly said, “You have to escort me back, or I’ll report it to your boss.”

Old Seven gritted his teeth. “Let’s go back quickly and tell Old Zhang and the others to send support!”

Old Eight stared at Pan Mingyue as if he never thought she would be such a person.

However, it was only human nature to be afraid of death.

The two of them drove the car back silently, afraid that Pan Mingyue would make trouble.

Xiao Luo was seriously injured and had already fallen into a coma.

Old Seven drove, but Old Eight didn’t want to face Pan Mingyue and got into the co-pilot driver’s seat instead.

When they were halfway back, Old Seven looked in the rearview mirror and realized that something was wrong—

“Wait, where is she?”

…

At the same time.

Pan Mingyue had sneaked into the forest area.

She took off the black-rimmed glasses that she rarely took off and put them on the ground.

A pair of eyes that seemed stained with frost appeared.

She was a completely different person.

She looked at the glasses for about three seconds, then stood up and took off her beige coat. She wore only a long white T-shirt, which was tucked into her black pants.

If someone was here, they could definitely see the two black guns pinned to both sides of her waist!

In the faint moonlight, her face reflected cold light.

She drew out her two guns, squeezed both hands casually, and walked into the night.

The person who had skipped classes with Qin Ran and been favored by Chang Ning was nowhere as obedient and simple as she looked!
