Chapter 77 Code Name: Butterfly



Qiu Jingwen shuddered as he listened.

The red microphone I was holding almost fell from my hand, and a chill ran down my spine.

"Damn it, another damn Kuomintang agent has popped up! They're like a persistent ghost!"

This was the first time in Qiu Jingwen's life that he had ever sworn an insult!

"Nima Gobi" is a vulgar curse word used in Duliang.

Roughly, about the same as, your mother's ass.

How could Qiu Jingwen know who the butterfly was?

He only knew that Liu Han was his superior and that he had been brought into the Military Intelligence Bureau by Liu Han. As for the other members of the infiltrator group, he knew nothing about them.

Back then, Liu Yihan used a few silver dollars to trick him into joining the Military Intelligence Bureau, which was eager to fill his stomach and prevent his sister from going hungry. He was then taken to the Duliang Station of the Military Intelligence Bureau and put into a training class.

Qiu Jingwen remembers that there were dozens of people in the training class back then. Almost thirty years have passed, so how would he know who was who?

Furthermore, after the training camp ended, Du Liang was released and everyone dispersed. Liu Han instructed him to lie low and wait to be awakened.

This wait lasted for almost thirty years!

It wasn't until that stormy day, when Liu Han appeared before him like a ghost, that his identity as a secret agent regained its significance.

Holding the microphone, Qiu Jingwen felt nervous again.

He knew that the person who made the call, like Liu Han, knew his identity as a member of the Military Intelligence Bureau and knew everything about him. Otherwise, they wouldn't have known that his name before joining the Military Intelligence Bureau was Sun Jiadong, let alone that his code name was Cobra!

What terrified Qiu Jingwen even more was that this butterfly actually knew that the public security investigation team was targeting him, Qiu Jingwen.

What the hell does this mean?

This suggests that the butterfly knew about the investigation team's situation, indicating that it might be at the Hongqi Factory, or even right next to the investigation team.

Thinking of all this, Qiu Jingwen felt a chill run down his spine again, and his teeth seemed to be chattering.

In some ways, this phone call was even more frightening to him than Liu Han's appearance.

The aftereffects still appeared!

Although his wife had murdered Liu Han, a veteran spy, he thought that he and Liu Han were on separate missions and no one else knew his identity as a spy. Unexpectedly, this butterfly directly revealed his code name, Cobra.

Regardless of whether he had attended a military intelligence training course, Qiu Jingwen, with his online intelligence, knew that this person who called himself Butterfly naturally knew his identity very well.

"What cobra? What butterfly?!"

After calming down, Qiu Jingwen asked in a low voice into the microphone.

"Haha, keep pretending. You've been very successful in disguising yourself at the Red Flag Factory all these years. You've become a workshop director and a section chief. You've done quite well. But don't forget your identity as a member of the Military Intelligence Bureau, and don't forget the significance of your infiltration."

"Don't give me that nonsense over the phone. I didn't understand a word you said."

Just like when he faced Liu Han, Qiu Jingwen stubbornly refused to admit it.

Upon hearing this, the other party simply smiled.

"Haha, Cobra, don't worry, no one is listening to this call. They haven't used any listening devices on you yet."

Qiu Jingwen didn't listen anymore and slammed the phone down.

After hanging up the phone, Qiu Jingwen stood beside it, her mind buzzing.

For a moment, my mind went completely blank, and I felt like I had fallen into a nightmare.

He opened the drawer, took out a pack of Pegasus cigarettes, tore open the outer packaging, pulled one out, put it in his mouth, and then struck a match to light it.

As a former secret agent, his keen senses and intuition have improved.

Qiu Jingwen initially judged that the guy who called him Butterfly should be hiding inside the Hongqi Factory, otherwise how could he know so much about Shao Jian's investigation team?

He even suspected that this enemy agent who called himself Butterfly was a high-ranking cadre. How could an ordinary employee know that he was being watched by the investigation team?

Moreover, Butterfly even knew that the investigation team had not monitored his phone calls so far.

Qiu Jingwen took a few deep drags on his cigarette and paced back and forth in his office.

At this point, not only is it impossible to lie down and rest, but it's also impossible to sit down.

He needed to sort out his thoughts carefully. What exactly was the role of this butterfly who had called him?

Is this butterfly of a higher rank than Liu Han, or perhaps Liu Han's superior, who has all the information about the Hidden Group?

Before Liu Han was killed by Qiu Jingwen's wife, Jiang Yuping, did he report everything to his superior, the butterfly?

Qiu Jingwen could only make such an analysis and inference. Otherwise, since he was in contact with Liu Han through a single line, the members on other lines should not have known about him. Only Liu Han's superiors could possibly know his identity and situation.

Hearing this phone call was a chilling experience for Qiu Jingwen.

He couldn't calm himself down. At noon in the staff canteen, he could remain relatively calm when facing Shao Jian, but at this moment, he could no longer stay calm.

This means that although enemy agent Liu Hanhan has been killed, his identity as a spy, or rather his fate, is still in the hands of others.

Especially when Butterfly told him about the safety of his wife and children, it sounded like a threat to Qiu Jingwen.

Qiu Jingwen quickly concluded that this butterfly would definitely not just have a simple phone call with him; there would definitely be further actions to come.

Meanwhile, more illogical questions arose in Qiu Jingwen's mind.

If this butterfly is a cadre lurking in the Red Flag Factory, and if he knows Qiu Jingwen's identity, why hasn't he contacted him for so many years, and only contacted him today?
