Chen Rou first meets Nie Zhao because of an anti-terrorism case involving Hong Kong's wealthy elite. He is the richest man in Hong Kong for many years, and a renowned powerful figure. Even thou...
It was almost midnight, and she should go home.
Now we'll find Brother Lin, remove his bugging device, and then install it on Colonel Rango next month.
When it comes to things like wiretapping, it's crucial to avoid being impatient and giving yourself away. After all, what they're after is radio equipment and various records. If you alert them and they become suspicious, they might destroy those things, and then all the evidence will be gone.
But as soon as Chen Rou entered the restroom, another opportunity arose.
It was Colonel Lango's subordinate, his chief of staff, Lieutenant Colonel Wali, a drunkard who had drunk an unknown amount. He was holding his cell phone and talking on the phone, muttering, "You are my rose, my honey."
This sounds like he's trying to pick up girls. As the ghostwriter for Colonel Lango's autobiography, he had two fountain pens side by side in the pocket of his military uniform jacket, one of which happened to be a Parker. Chen Rou also had a Parker in her bag.
The classic model, exactly the same as Lieutenant Colonel Wally's, also has a writing function, and the bugging device is on the cap.
If we don't act now, when will we?
After using the restroom, she put her bag on the marble vanity. After washing her hands, she deliberately splashed water on Lieutenant Colonel Wali's face, but immediately said sorry and pulled her fingers out to wipe it off for him.
Lieutenant Colonel Wali hung up the phone, laughing and saying, "It's alright, madam, it's really alright."
Chen Rou smiled and said, "You must be Lieutenant Colonel Wali. I saw you at the exhibition in Central. You left a deep impression on me."
While wiping the water droplets off his face and body, she had already replaced the fountain pen.
But it would be better to chat for a bit to avoid seeming awkward. When Lieutenant Colonel Wali heard that this beautiful lady actually recognized him, he immediately forgot about the girl he had just been chasing on the phone and started to fawn over her.
However, Colonel Rango called and yelled at him, so he left in a panic and a huff.
A pen can last about a month and is difficult to detect. If no effective information is obtained from eavesdropping during that month, Chen Rou can simply install another listening device on Colonel Lango.
After watching Lieutenant Colonel Wali leave, she turned and left as well. Any longer and things would get complicated. She had to take back the weapon that was on Brother Lin Yong's chest before she could leave.
After leaving the restroom, she was in the lobby when she saw Lin Yong just coming in through the side door.
This is the governor's residence. On the other side of the side door is a cultural exhibition room, where people go to chat privately. He had obviously gone to that exhibition room with others just now, but his corsage was no longer there.
It's possible that he found it cumbersome halfway through, picked it, threw it away, and put it directly into the trash can.
But the code of conduct for secret agents is that whatever they send out, they must take back.
Otherwise, what if Lin Yong discovers the bugging device and uses it for counter-tracking or to lure her into a trap?
As soon as Lin Yong left, Chen Rou immediately went into the corridor.
All the other doors in the corridor were closed, except for the exhibition room. She went in, and after looking around, she first bent down to look at the trash can. But she couldn't see it clearly under the light, so she pretended to admire the display on the wall and prepared to deliberately kick over the trash can so that she could openly rummage through the trash.
Of course, she has already identified the location of the camera and will avoid it.
She had only taken a few steps when she heard a ding behind her. When she turned around, she saw a corsage lying next to the trash can. Of course, she turned around and chased after it, but when she reached the door, she only saw a fleeting figure. She paused for a moment, turned around, and deliberately picked up the corsage under the surveillance camera, then wiped it clean.
But she found it strange because even Song Yuanchao was not allowed to come in today and had to stay outside.
Everyone she knew at the scene was on the opposite side of her.
However, someone stopped her from installing a bug on Colonel Lango and threw Lin Yong's bug back at her.
He/She clearly knows that she is the legendary mainland spy, but who is he/she, friend or foe?
Was it Lin Yong who deliberately dropped the bugging device earlier to lure her into giving herself away?
She picked up the corsage from the camera and replaced the bugging device with an ordinary pin.
There happened to be a restroom nearby, so she turned around, went in, and without hesitation flushed all the listening devices down the drain.
But if that person is Lin Yong, then he already knows her identity in his heart.
Although Chen Rou has a complete resume showing that she grew up in Hong Kong, and is indeed not a spy from the mainland, she is not afraid of being investigated.
But she was still very frustrated, thinking that she had probably been living a comfortable life for too long and had become rusty.
It's such a failure that she managed to expose herself in this kind of situation.
But just as she was making sure she had flushed away all the listening devices and came out of the bathroom, ready to be questioned by Lin Yong, she found him supporting the Chief Justice's wife, chatting and laughing, as they walked out.
It was past midnight, and everyone should be leaving by then, so Chen Rou headed towards the gate.
The Governor's Chief Secretary was seeing off the guests, and each guest received a gift. After receiving the gift, Chen Rou thanked him and was about to leave when she smelled an overpowering fragrance. Needless to say, it was Sir James again.
He clearly wanted to talk to her some more and saw her out, but Chen Rou didn't give him the chance and left quickly.
The bodyguards from each family were waiting outside. As soon as Chen Rou came out, Song Yuanchao immediately went up the steps.
He took her hand and asked, "Was it all right?"
Chen Rou nodded, about to say something, when she saw Nie Yao, wearing a black jacket and glasses, walk out from the side door on the other side of the revolving door with the governor's chief secretary. The chief secretary was still talking about something.
Sir James was with them too. After the secretary finished speaking, he talked to Nie Yao.
