Forty-eight hours!
The Military God only gave forty-eight hours.
Ye Qiu’s brows furrowed.
This was not a simple mission!
He didn’t know anything about that scientist’s situation, and he was still on a mission in a foreign country, which was a lot of pressure for Ye Qiu.
The Military God continued, “If that scientist cannot be found within forty-eight hours, then our country will enter a state of war.”
“The possibility of having a war cannot be ruled out.”
“Therefore, you only have forty-eight hours.”
“Ye Qiu, I’m giving you this heavy responsibility, do you have the confidence to complete it?”
Ye Qiu immediately got up, looked straight into the eyes of the Military God, and said with a straight face, “Don’t worry Long, I will do my best.”
“Very good.”
The Military God said, “Ye Qiu, in order for you to successfully complete the mission, I have arranged two assistants for you.”
“One is our Underworld Palace’s number one hacker, her codename is Wolverine, she will contact you afterwards.”
“The other, is Tang Fei by your side.”
Tang Fei?
Ye Qiu glanced at Tang Fei and said, “Long, is Tang Fei trustworthy?”
When these words came out, Tang Fei’s face turned green with anger.
The Military God said with an odd expression, “Ye Qiu, you don’t know Tang Fei’s situation?”
Ye Qiu shook his head.
The Military God said, “It’s better to let Old Tang tell you.”
Old Tang looked at Ye Qiu and smiled, “Tang Fei is the Deputy Chief of Staff of the Underworld Palace, and at the same time, he’s also my grandson.”
Shit, second generation of the military!
Ye Qiu hurriedly shook Tang Fei’s hands and said enthusiastically, “Brother Tang, please take care of him.”
“Hmph.”
Tang Fei shook off Ye Qiu’s hands, not hiding his dislike for him.
The Military God continued, “Both Tang Fei and Wolverine can only assist you remotely in the country and cannot accompany you to the Great East.”
“That is to say, this time, your mission to the Great East is a lone battle, full of great risks.”
“Ye Qiu, I hope you can come back alive!”
After the Military God said these last words, the atmosphere in the entire conference room became unusually heavy.
“You don’t have to worry about my safety, the Long-Browed Realist has read my fortune, he said that I’m not a person with a short life, and that I’ll definitely be rich and famous in the future.”
Ye Qiu joked, making the heavy atmosphere slightly lighter.
“Ye Qiu, I’ve finished what I have to say, what else do you have to ask?”The Military God said.
Ye Qiu said, “I really have a question I want to ask you.”
“Speak!”
Ye Qiu said, “The Underworld Palace is full of experts, and there are countless military kings in the army, why did you choose me to carry out the mission?”
The Military God replied, “Firstly, we from the Underworld Palace have secretly fought with the Great Eastern agents many times and are familiar with each other, if they enter the Great Eastern, their whereabouts will most likely be grasped by the Great Eastern agents.”
“Thus, I need to find a raw face.”
“Secondly, the army’s soldier kings have their own strengths, some are good at fighting, some are good at firearms, they are more suited to fighting co-ordinated battles, so they are not in my scope of consideration.”
“Third, Cao Yuan highly recommended you to me.”
The Military God said, “I believe in Cao Yuan’s vision.”
Ye Qiu understood that the Army God’s real reason for choosing him was actually Nine Thousand Years’ recommendation.
This made Ye Qiu’s mind wonder.
The Military God was the Prime Minister of the military, and Nine Thousand Years old was the Sect Master of the Dragon Sect, the two were white and black, how could they be connected?
Moreover, from the looks of it, the Military God seemed to trust Nine Thousand Years, otherwise he wouldn’t have chosen Ye Qiu to carry out the mission.
“Long, I have another question.”Ye Qiu said, “If that scientist leaks military secrets, what should I do then?”
“Military justice, shot on the spot!”
“Okay, I understand.”
“Ye Qiu, when you return safely, I’ll give you credit!”After the Military God said this, the big screen went black.
The Military God went offline.
Elder Tang said amiably, “Ye Qiu, besides Tang Fei and Wolverine who will be assisting you on this mission, Old Wan and I will also help you, as long as it’s related to the mission, you can feel free to ask for whatever you need.”
“I need the information of that scientist.”Ye Qiu said.
“I’ve already prepared it for you.”Tang Fei took out a file bag and handed it to Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu took it and saw that the upper right corner of the file bag was stamped with a seal with two words on it.
Top Secret!
Ye Qiu roughly tore open the dossier bag and the first thing he saw was a photo.
On the photo was a young man wearing glasses, with a white face, a bright smile, and a well-mannered appearance.
“The missing scientist is this person?”Ye Qiu pointed at the photo and asked.
“That’s right, it’s him.”Tang Fei said.
Ye Qiu was a bit surprised.
In his perception, the average scientist was at least forty to fifty years old, while this youth, who looked like he was no more than thirty years old, was a bit too young.
Ye Qiu flipped through the details.
Zhao Zhengxi.
Male.
Twenty-nine years old.
Graduated from the University of Paris, contemporary famous young scientist, physicist
There were a full dozen pages of information, recording Zhao Zhengxi’s events from the time he was born until the time he disappeared.
It took Ye Qiu half an hour to finish reading this information.
During this process, Elder Tang, Elder Wan and Tang Fei didn’t make any noise for fear of disturbing Ye Qiu.
After putting down the information, Ye Qiu said, “I need Zhao Zhengxi’s trajectory of activities in the Great East, are there any details?”
“Yes!”
Tang Fei took out two more documents and placed them in front of Ye Qiu, saying, “One is Zhao Zhengxi’s trajectory of activities in the Great East, and the other is the analysis report of the Underworld Palace’s intelligence officers.”
Ye Qiu spent another ten minutes reading through the two documents.
It turned out that Zhao Zhengxi was travelling to the Great East to attend a scientific seminar, and since he was a special talent, in order to ensure his complete safety, the Underworld Palace had sent a team of four operatives to protect him covertly.
However, according to the information, at the same time that Zhao Zhengxi disappeared, the four agents of the Underworld Palace also lost contact.
Because it was abroad and there were many inconveniences to their actions, the Underworld Palace had failed to investigate the whereabouts of Zhao Zhengxi and the four agents through various means.
Therefore, the intelligence officers analysed that Zhao Zhengxi was most likely being held hostage or kidnapped.
There was even the possibility that he had been sacrificed.
Ye Qiu, having understood the ins and outs of the matter, put down the file, got up and said, “When do I get out?”
“Immediately.”
Tang Fei handed Ye Qiu an Apple phone and said, “This is a modified satellite phone, you take it to facilitate our contact.”
Ye Qiu took the phone.
Tang Fei said, “In order not to attract the attention of the Great Eastern side, this time you will be travelling to the Great Eastern on a civil aviation plane, with the identity of an ordinary tourist, I’ve already booked the tickets for you.”
“Got it. Two longs, goodbye!”
Ye Qiu waved his hand.
Elder Tang and Elder Wan stood up, stood upright with both feet, and solemnly gave Ye Qiu a military salute.
“Little Ye, you must be safe.”
“We are here waiting for your good news.”
Ye Qiu smiled faintly, turned around and left the conference room, taking Tang Fei’s jeep and heading straight to the airport.
