"What was Ye Chenxi and his team's mission in 2008?"
The voice was faint, and the last notes dissipated in the wind. Zhen Kang lowered his hand, the muzzle of the gun still smoking. Across from him, Professor Hua sat on the headboard with his eyes wide open.
On the chest of the pajamas, where the heart should be, a deep, round, scorched hole pierced through the body and penetrated deep into the wood of the headboard.
Blood slowly seeped out, soaking through the pajamas.
Swift and decisive, a single shot was all it took to kill him.
“Professor Hua, it’s a real pity,” he said, “you can’t hear me now.”
A wicked smile appeared on his face as he raised an eyebrow, a faint golden light swirling on his forehead.
"It's too difficult for a dragon to fall into the form of a snake. However, it's quite easy to borrow his horns to elevate my snake into a dragon."
He waved his hand, and the armed men behind him quickly stepped forward, preparing to cut open Professor Hua's head, remove the brain, and put it into a container they were carrying.
But as soon as he moved, a piece of paper fell from Professor Hua's hand.
"Sir, look!"
Zhen Kang suddenly felt uneasy and snatched the paper away.
On the paper, the handwriting is crooked, yet the depth of the writing is unmistakable.
"My superpower is storage, so you can certainly use devices to read the knowledge in my brain. But unfortunately, I can also completely format my brain before I die!"
"Zhen Kang, I'd like to see how long you can live!"
"That old bastard!" Zhen Kang roared in fury, tearing the note to shreds. Still not satisfied, he stomped on Professor Hua's corpse several times. "Old bastard! You scoundrel! How dare you try to trick me even in death? You want to see how I die? Let me tell you, I won't die! I absolutely will not die!"
Clang!
The entire house was smashed to pieces. Zhen Kang was furious, and his subordinates had no choice but to ask, "Sir, what do we do next?"
Zhen Kang roared, "Find it! He definitely wouldn't have really deleted the list. He must have transferred it to some kind of storage device before he died! He didn't have time to communicate with anyone, so he would have been afraid of not trusting the person or finding the place safe enough. So it must be here! Find it for me!"
"yes!"
The group squeezed in and began to search the room thoroughly. Zhen Kang felt increasingly frustrated, so he lit a cigarette and went outside to smoke at the bottom of the stairs.
Actually, according to the plan, everything should have gone much more smoothly than this. The assassination attempt at the hospital was indeed going to fail, but it was necessary for Wu Ming to appear in front of the Special Forces in broad daylight, then be seriously injured and rescued back to the base.
Wu Ming fled.
Wu Ming's appearance hasn't changed much in the past ten years, and the higher-ups in the Special Forces can recognize him at a glance. It turns out their genius, missing for ten years, has become a member of a terrorist organization tasked with assassinating Special Forces personnel.
Hey, that's what makes it lively.
He could imagine the Chinese leadership in utter chaos, fury, and bewilderment!
By diverting the Special Forces' attention with Wu Ming, they could then seize the opportunity to find the list in Professor Hua's mind, take it abroad, and hand it over to the League of Nations. Everything would be perfectly logical.
But where did all these plans begin to go wrong?
Zhen Kang frowned and took a deep drag on his cigarette.
One of his subordinates ran over quickly.
"Sir, we didn't find anything. Professor Hua didn't leave any high-tech storage devices in his house!"
The scream almost deafened Zhen Kang. He kicked his subordinate impatiently, yelling, "Are you crazy? Shut up!"
Before his subordinate's screams could stop, Zhen Kang felt a gust of wind behind him, carrying the smell of blood and the distinctive scent of metal. Following his subordinate's terrified gaze, he slowly turned his head.
He instantly understood the reason for his subordinates' fear.
In the shadows, a dark red snake tail appeared silently, like a ghost.
