The cold nut was clenched tightly in his palm, and the subtle, high-frequency energy lingering in the air, like the hiss of a venomous snake, pierced his nerves along Mingzhao's fingertips.
Deep within her pupils, calculations were running at lightning speed, instantly completing the analysis of this "nut":
Material: High-strength beryllium copper alloy, non-magnetic, low thermal conductivity, high resonant frequency.
Structure: The intricate threads serve as a disguise; the core is a black crystal embedded at the bottom. It is a man-made high-frequency piezoelectric resonant crystal.
Function: Passive resonant energy field disturbance device. It does not actively emit signals; instead, it receives strong energy field fluctuations of a specific frequency to induce crystal resonance, converting mechanical vibrations into weak electromagnetic pulses that are then radiated outwards!
Activation mechanism: Micro-circuits etched inside the crystal form an extremely precise passive energy threshold trigger. It is only activated and resonates with a radiation pulse when fluctuations in the ambient energy field reach a specific intensity and frequency range!
Target: Abnormally high-intensity energy activity at the core storage point of the "Starflame" wind tunnel assembly station in the core classified area! It's the ear that Mole Old Qian uses for location and early warning!
Its stealth is extremely high! It doesn't fire actively, making it very difficult for conventional electronic detection equipment to detect!
Only precision devices, such as Mingzhao's, which are extremely sensitive to energy field fluctuations, or Jiang Feng's mechanical leg with its built-in special sensing unit located at the resonant frequency, can capture the minuscule pulse spikes it radiates!
"So...that's how it is." Mingzhao's cool murmur echoed in the silence.
The abnormal pulses that plagued her, the excruciating pain in Jiang Feng's mechanical leg, the tremors at the key nodes of the wind tunnel test... all the clues instantly connected! A chilling killing intent, for the first time so clearly, coalesced in her eyes.

Even the strong smell of disinfectant couldn't mask the stench of blood in the base's medical room.
Jiang Feng lay on the makeshift hospital bed, his face as pale as paper, his bandages soaked with cold sweat.
His left leg, from knee to ankle, was covered with a thick cast and brace, and the exposed skin was covered with bruises and abrasions.
The outer shell of the mechanical leg has been removed, revealing a complex array of gears, linkages, and sensing units inside.
Mechanics at several bases were sweating profusely as they carried out emergency repairs, their faces filled with shock and lingering fear.
"The main drive gear in the knee is severely deformed! Three stress sensing units are completely burned out! The internal shock-absorbing hydraulic circuit has multiple leaks!"
Chief mechanic Lao Zhao's voice trembled as he pointed to the disassembled parts.
"Captain Jiang... this... this isn't normal wear and tear or a malfunction! It's... it was damaged by high-frequency energy... like... like smashing a precision watch with a sledgehammer!"
Zhang Meng, Zhang Mingyuan, Su Xuan, and others stood by the bed, their faces ashen.
Looking at those twisted and deformed precision parts, and then at Jiang Feng's leg twitching slightly from the pain, a cold rage burned in everyone's heart!
"That bastard...!" Su Xuan gritted his teeth, his fists clenched so tightly they cracked.
“Comrade Jiang Feng, you…” Zhang Meng’s voice was heavy with concern.
Jiang Feng waved his hand, interrupting her. His voice was hoarse from the pain, but unusually firm:
"Chief Engineer Zhang... I'm fine... I won't die. The mole... can't escape! He used... not a conventional weapon... but... some kind of energy device that can interfere with precision machinery..."
He described with difficulty the two fatal interference pulses in the warehouse.
Just then, the door to the infirmary was pushed open.
Mingzhao walked in, holding the cold nut in his hand.
Her gaze swept over Jiang Feng's disassembled and mangled mechanical leg, and a fleeting, extremely faint ripple appeared in her cold eyes.
Just as a precision instrument detects abnormal parameters, they are instantly overwritten by the logic program.
Without offering any greetings, she went straight to Jiang Feng's bedside, placed the nut on the metal tray beside him, and made a crisp clinking sound.
"Device analysis complete."
Mingzhao's voice was like a cold spring, "Passive resonance...eavesdropping/disruptor."
"Activation conditions... high intensity... specific frequency... energy field fluctuations."
"Target... locked onto core... classified area activities."
She succinctly reiterated the conclusions of the analysis.
The cold logic, like the sharpest dagger, dissected the "mole's" tricks and the root cause of Jiang Feng's injury!
"Passive? Resonance?"
Zhang Mingyuan looked at the inconspicuous nut and gasped.
"No wonder... our previous electronic detections found nothing! This thing... is too insidious!"
"Then... what should we do?" Su Xuan asked anxiously.
"Does this mean we'll have to live in constant fear of him overhearing us every time we conduct crucial tests?!"
"No."
Mingzhao's voice was resolute: "Use it."
Her cold gaze swept over Jiang Feng on the hospital bed, and Zhang Meng, Zhang Mingyuan, and the others who were shocked, before she unveiled a countermeasure plan that was audacious to the extreme:
"To create...bait."
"Forgery of...key...technical documents."
"Contains...fatal flaws."
"Leak...to the mole."
Taking advantage of the mole's eagerness to obtain core secrets, deliberately feed him a carefully designed fake document containing fatal technical errors, such as incorrect absorption material ratios, defective vector nozzle structures, or a critical design flaw in the Starflame core adapter!
Make him pass it on as if it were a treasure!
"this……"
Zhang Meng instantly understood Mingzhao's intention, and her heart pounded wildly!
This is a double agent plot in intelligence warfare!
The risk is enormous!
If the deception is exposed, or if the false information fails to cause sufficient damage, the consequences will be unimaginable!
