Leng Nan's heart was filled with shock and disbelief. Qin Xiao's description matched the top-secret intelligence her grandfather had given her through secret channels perfectly! Even more detailed! The detail about the beef noodles was information that even the highest intelligence network of the military didn't have!
"Now, is there anyone who opposes my command?" Qin Xiao asked calmly.
This time, no one answered. Li Mo lowered his head as well.
“Very good.” Qin Xiao continued, “Based on my deductions, she is most likely hiding in three places: the east of the city, the west of the city, and the old city. We need to split up…”
Before he could finish speaking, a voice that was both familiar and troubling suddenly echoed in his mind.
"Ding dong! Dear host Qin Xiao, your thoughtful little assistant Yun Yiyi is online!"
Yun Yiyi's voice was filled with unprecedented panic and disarray.
"We're doomed! Qin Xiao! The system just detected strong emotional fluctuations in the target 'Ghost' and forcibly triggered an SS-level hidden mission! It's SS-level! I've never seen a mission of this level before!"
Qin Xiao paused for a moment.
"What mission?" he asked in his mind, his tone completely calm.
"Mission Title: [The Witch's Fate]!"
Yun Yiyi's voice sounded like she was about to cry.
"Mission Objective: Abandon cooperation with the military and do not harm the target 'Ghost' in any way. Within 72 hours, locate her and successfully persuade her to willingly join 'Ning's Era' as the company's Chief Security Advisor!"
"Mission Reward: [Perfect-level God-tier Hacking Skills]!"
"Mission failure penalty: All of the host's existing skills and levels will be reset to zero!"
Qin Xiao's hand, holding the whiteboard marker, froze in mid-air.
Reset? His mind flashed through his mind: Master-level driving, perfect combat skills, god-like acting… all the assets he had accumulated step by step. This punishment was crueler than death.
He looked at the red circle on the whiteboard that represented the "ghost," and then glanced at the group of soldiers opposite him, their eyes burning with anticipation as they awaited his swift arrest order.
Recruit a top assassin, listed as the highest threat by the military, to be the head of security for your company?
This system has never disappointed him.
A subtle, enigmatic smile slowly curved Qin Xiao's lips. It wasn't joy, nor mockery, but rather the fascination and adrenaline of finding a new toy.
He threw the whiteboard marker back into the pen holder with a "smack".
"The plan has changed."
He turned around, meeting the questioning gazes of Leng Nan and the Snow Wolf Squad, and said something that made everyone in the conference room think they had misheard.
"The arrest operation is cancelled."
