After reviewing the documents, the major looked up at James, hoping for an explanation. He had already prepared to take the blame for this mission and had also received a promise.

Success in the mission will lead to promotion and honors; failure may result in death, but more often than not, one will be held responsible for the damage to public facilities.

If someone cleans up the damaged public facilities, he only needs to apologize, take a vacation, and then come back to enjoy better treatment and greater power.

It's definitely not like now, where he's worried someone will come and stab him, or even kill him with the pencils in front of him.

Is James scared? Of course he is. The data provided by FBI includes his battle record. In all those wilderness survival competitions, only three people have managed to injure Steve.

Leaf defeated Steve twice, Butcher fought to a draw, and finally, it was this invisible man.

If it weren't for real-time recording, the dark web wouldn't have left any information about this invisible person.

Even so, nothing is known about the appearance, physique, or weapons of the Invisible Man on the dark web, because the images of the Invisible Man captured by those cameras are so blurry that they cannot even be repaired or viewed.

The thought of such a person lurking among them is chilling.

Seeing that James didn't reply and instead looked frightened, the major could only tap the table and continue asking:

"If this invisible man keeps killing, our plan will be useless, and the higher-ups will also be in danger."

Furthermore, this plan was your idea; if you can't deal with them, you'll be the one who gets dealt with.

That's the truth. If the nobody keeps killing like this, the entire top brass of the White Hawk will be in danger. In the end, to quell the anger of the underworld, the one who will be pushed out to take the blame will definitely be James, and it can only be James.

Only in this way can the gates of hell order the assassination to be cancelled.

James immediately took out his phone and started dialing. After the call connected, James said urgently:

"Steve, how did you survive the Invisible Man?"

With the phone on speakerphone, Steve's calm voice rang out:

"Battlefield instinct: just keep your eyes focused on him. Once your attention is diverted, even for a moment, you'll have to wait for him to launch another attack before you can find him again."

The major breathed a sigh of relief. There were people specifically watching the area where the high-ranking officers were located, and they had to go through several checks, including thermal imaging and X-rays.

With these two layers of checks, no one can enter silently.

That's really the case. Nobody can get into the top positions; otherwise, the whole world would have to bow down to China. No president wants to die mysteriously and quietly.

After hanging up the phone, James said:

"Let them disband, go home, or go on vacation, do whatever they want, just don't let them stay there."

Let's see what he does next.

The major glared at James, then got up to report the situation.

It is also recommended that security personnel around senior executives be equipped with thermal imaging cameras.

Upon receiving the report, the higher-ups immediately convened a meeting to discuss it. Although James did not attend, he felt a chill in his heart, because his political career was over.

Even though he has good connections and a lot of money, no one will risk their life to speak up for him.

After discussion, the relevant senior executives decided to temporarily disband James's department, give them a long leave, and arrange thermal imaging security forces around them.

$150 billion, and they wouldn't be willing to give that to someone on the brink of death.

Who would willingly take money out of their pocket, especially a large sum of money?

Actually, from the very beginning of this plan, they had their own ideas. Since they were going to openly deal with the Gates of Hell, wouldn't it be better to keep the money for themselves? Why give it away?

There are some things that can be done but not said, so James's plan was supplemented, and the money was to be paid to the Ghost Gate after the siege began.

Without written documentation, how did this money end up in their pockets?

Officials seize power, and then use that power to make money—that's the correct way to operate in a capitalist country.

That said, if this money is either used to pay off those who have died or to fill the national treasury, why can't it fill their own pockets?

After the plan targeting the obscure employee was finalized, James's department was completely deserted.

Ironically, James's department didn't even have a proper name. The lower-level staff all thought they were working for an intelligence agency, collecting information on various martial arts masters from home and abroad.

They didn't even know why they were being targeted for murder; otherwise, FIRI wouldn't have needed to go to Steve to find out who did it.

Back to the nobody, he visited James's department again, only to find it deserted. Puzzled, the nobody immediately contacted the intelligence officer.

After turning on the phone, I immediately received a message from the intelligence officer.

At the same time, Sister Meng also sent over the follow-up action plan: take down James and, with the help of the intelligence agent, find the department responsible for collecting bets and paying out winnings.

If found, directly threaten the person in charge to transfer every penny of the gambling money to the underworld.

Using his phone's location tracking, Xiao Touming quickly found James, but James was afraid of dying and was hiding in the military camp, where he was protected by soldiers wearing thermal imaging helmets.

The nobody followed James for a week before finally finding an opportunity to kill him while James secretly slipped out to relieve stress.

By the time the body was discovered, it was already hard.

James' death gave a chill down the spines of the relevant executives, making them realize that only thermal imaging could guarantee their safety.

Because when James went out, the soldiers who were supposed to be protecting him with thermal imaging were not with him.

This was also a clever move by James; the fact that the soldiers were protecting him meant that he hadn't left either.

But it was precisely this clever trick that gave the nobody the opportunity to make a move.

After taking down James, the nobody began assisting the intelligence agent in finding the group in charge of the funds.

Sister Meng has already made the call, although she still got the same old answers, but the main purpose was to find the person based on the location.

Three days later, the nobody stared into thought as he looked at the Pentagon in front of him. This was the place he had located based on the call location.

Here, any office could be the location of the group responsible for collecting bets and paying out winnings.

Such a massive building would take forever to search room by room.

Getting in isn't difficult; the challenge is that once inside, you can't use devices for calling or location tracking.

If he doesn't speak, no one will notice him. But once inside, anyone who sees an Asian man making phone calls asking for money while carrying a bunch of equipment and wandering around the corridor will become alert.
