"Time...we ignored time..." Mou Xuan's voice was low and powerful, like a heavy stone falling into a calm lake, causing ripples.
He paused, a barely perceptible gleam in his eyes, "It seems that it is time to use some extraordinary means..."
He looked around, made sure no one was paying attention, took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
The air around him seemed to solidify, and a strange energy wave emanated from him, distorting space and blurring time.
When he opened his eyes again, Mou Xuan was already in the technology research and development room, but the time had gone back to late at night a few days ago.
It was quiet all around, with only the ticking sound of the wall clock, like a life-threatening drumbeat, beating in the silent night.
The air was filled with the smell of engine oil and metal. The cold light shone on various complex instruments, reflecting a faint light, making the entire R&D room look even more eerie and strange.
Mou Xuan held his breath and moved silently between the various instruments like an agile cheetah. His senses were magnified to the extreme, and any slight sound or movement could not escape his ears and eyes.
He saw it, saw the figure lurking in the darkness, sneaky and suspicious.
The figure was none other than the traitor Liu who usually appeared loyal and honest!
Mou Xuan's pupils suddenly contracted, and a surge of anger rose from the bottom of his heart. He clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging deeply into the flesh, but he felt no pain at all.
He continued to watch, time passing quickly before his eyes, like a fast-forwarded movie.
He saw the traitor Liu carefully open the safe, take out the top-secret scientific and technological achievements, and then stuff them into an inconspicuous briefcase.
He even saw the scene where the traitor Liu was trading with external forces. His sneaky eyes and panicky movements all revealed his crimes.
"You traitor Liu, it's you!" Mou Xuan whispered with gritted teeth, with an uncontrollable anger rising in his heart.
He wanted to rush up immediately and bring the traitor to justice, but reason told him that now was not the time.
He needs more evidence, solid evidence, to completely uncover this deeply hidden traitor and leave him no place to hide!
The time rewind ended and Mou Xuan returned to reality again.
He opened his eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm the anger in his heart.
He knew that now was not the time to act on impulse, he needed to be calm and make plans.
He immediately found Investigator Sun and described in detail what he had seen.
Investigator Sun was stunned and his jaw almost dropped to the ground.
He never imagined that the usually honest traitor Liu would actually be a traitor hiding within the alliance!
"This... this is too incredible!" Investigator Sun exclaimed, "Brother Mu, your time ability is simply a magical skill!"
Mou Xuan waved his hand, signaling him not to make a fuss. "Now is not the time to be happy. We need more evidence. From now on, we will secretly monitor the traitor Liu's every move and must not let him have any chance to take advantage of it!"
"Understood!" Investigator Sun nodded solemnly, his eyes gleaming with excitement.
He seemed to have seen the moment when the traitor Liu was brought to justice.
As the night deepened, the Alliance Headquarters fell into silence.
Mou Xuan stood by the window, looking at the flickering lights in the distance, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.
He knew that the battle had just begun and the road ahead was still long and full of unknown challenges and dangers.
Suddenly, there was the sound of soft footsteps.
He turned around and saw Chen Yao approaching with a cup of steaming coffee.
"Still thinking about things?" Chen Yao's gentle voice flowed into Mou Xuan's heart like a clear spring, washing away the fatigue and irritability in his heart.
"Hmm." Mou Xuan took the coffee and took a sip. A warm current spread from his stomach, making him feel much more comfortable.
"Don't be too tired, and make sure to rest." Chen Yao said with concern, her eyes full of tenderness and love.
"I know." Mu Xuan smiled, stretched out his hand and took Chen Yao into his arms, "With you here, I'm not afraid of anything."
The two hugged each other quietly, feeling each other's warmth and love.
The room was filled with a warm atmosphere, as if the whole world had quieted down.
However, in a corner that they couldn't see, a pair of cold eyes were watching them, with a cunning light flashing in their eyes... Liu the traitor seemed to have noticed something. He stopped and looked back at the surveillance camera, with a barely perceptible sneer on the corner of his mouth...
Traitor Liu pricked up his ears alertly, like a mouse that smelled danger.
monitor?
Ha, he sneered, do you really think this little trick can trap him?
He began to wander around the Alliance headquarters like a ghost, his steps as light as a cat's and his eyes wandering, as if he was searching for something or avoiding something.
He deliberately wandered around the blind spots of surveillance, leaving some specious clues, as if he was playing a game of cat and mouse.
Contact with external forces has also become more secretive, using encrypted letters, secret language, and even an ancient method of communication - carrier pigeons.
A gray carrier pigeon flew silently out of the alliance headquarters and disappeared into the night. A thin metal tube was tied to its claws, which contained a secret that could subvert the alliance.
The transaction location was also changed from the previous abandoned factory to a more covert underground casino, which was a mixed crowd of all kinds of people, making it an ideal place to hide.
The traitor Liu even started selling some unimportant supplies in exchange for cash in preparation for his escape.
The corner of his mouth curled up with a sneer, "Want to catch me? That's not that easy!" He looked at the sky gradually brightening outside the window and muttered to himself, "The good show has just begun..." He dialed an encrypted number and said in a low voice: "Plan ahead..."
