At midnight, Ning Zhiheng, dressed in dark casual clothes, appeared near the apartment. He looked around and did not see Chen Yanqing and Hou Cheng, knowing that the two of them had left as he had instructed.
In fact, Ning Zhiheng didn't really trust these outsiders much, and he had no choice but to involve them in this anti-traitor operation!
He certainly couldn't use the military intelligence investigation department's operatives; doing so would create many hidden dangers. If someone informed on him, Ning Zhiheng would be unable to explain his actions!
Therefore, the only people they can call upon are these external personnel. After all, these external personnel are relatively easier to control, because Ning Zhiheng is their biggest backer.
He believed that even if Chen Yanqing and Hou Cheng had doubts about his actions, they could only assume it was the work of the military intelligence department and dared not raise any questions!
Moreover, both of them are intelligent people. Even if they have the slightest doubt about Ning Zhiheng, they have no reason to betray him and are still trustworthy to a certain extent.
Ning Zhiheng glanced at his watch. It was 12:30 a.m. People in this era didn't have much entertainment at night, and they usually went to bed around 9 p.m. According to this time, it should be the time when people are in the deepest sleep.
It was pitch black and the surroundings were quiet and deserted. Ning Zhiheng had exceptional eyesight and could see in the dark. In addition, he had already observed the area during the day and had a general idea of the terrain.
He quietly leaned against the back wall of the apartment, took out a pair of black gloves from his pocket and put them on, knowing that it was better to be cautious.
The back wall wasn't high, making it perfect for climbing. He tiptoed to the base of the wall, then leaped up with all his might, his fingers lightly touching the edge. Using one hand for leverage, he moved as lightly as a monkey, quickly vaulting over the wall and landing silently.
The courtyard was quiet, and the entire apartment was dark except for the lights in the living room on the first floor.
Ning Zhiheng gently approached the window and peered inside. He saw a young man reclining on the living room sofa, his eyes glazed over, in a half-asleep, half-awake state.
This is a security guard on duty. According to Chen Yanqing and his team, there is another guard and Zhang Pei in the apartment, who are probably asleep now.
Ning Zhiheng turned around and walked around the living room to the window of a room on the left. He tried to push the window and found that it was locked tightly.
It seemed the two guards were very careful, having locked all the windows before going to sleep. Ning Zhiheng used the same trick again, pulling out a dagger and inserting it into the window crack. His movements were very subtle, and he carefully pried open the window after a while, then climbed inside.
Once inside the apartment, he glanced at the living room, hesitated for a moment, and finally decided to eliminate the guard in the living room first.
After all, this person wasn't fully asleep and remained alert. If he made even the slightest noise during the operation to eliminate Zhang Pei, the man would surely wake up and alert others.
We must eliminate him first. The remaining two are already asleep and have almost no awareness, making them relatively easier to deal with.
Ning Zhiheng slowly made his way to the living room, wearing soft-soled cloth shoes that he had specially changed into, walking silently. He also deliberately concealed his movements, taking each step with extreme care, holding his breath, and making not a sound.
Step by step, they approached the guard from behind, who was already in a semi-conscious state and completely unaware.
Without hesitation, Ning Zhiheng forcefully tightened one hand around the guard's neck, while the other hand supported the guard's chin, lifting him upwards with force. A dull cracking sound came from the guard's cervical vertebrae, and his head bent backward, drooping completely after losing the support of his cervical spine!
Ning Zhiheng's arm strength is now considerable. With such force, even an iron pipe would be bent, let alone a person's neck.
Tonight is Ning Zhiheng's first solo operation, and it's quite dangerous. Therefore, his priority is to eliminate his opponent quickly and prevent any unforeseen events. To avoid any complications, he needs to act swiftly and decisively!
Therefore, he did not intend to spend the effort to read the memories of a guard.
After all, a guard's rank wouldn't be too high, nor would they have any major secrets. Ning Zhiheng also had no interest in knowing about the guard's personal history.
Therefore, before taking action, he deliberately calmed his mind and controlled his thoughts from entering his consciousness space. Sure enough, as his mental strength increased day by day, his ability to control his thoughts also became stronger. Before the guard died, as long as his thoughts did not enter his consciousness space, he could not read the deceased's memories.
He is now able to control and choose whether or not to read the memories of the deceased!
Ning Zhiheng kept one hand tightly around the guard's throat, and after observing him for a while, he realized that the guard was indeed silent, and then slowly let go.
He carefully observed the layout of the apartment and then began searching the first floor, which had four rooms in total. He searched each room one by one, listening attentively.
Since his physique was improved, his sensory abilities have also been greatly enhanced, and his hearing has become very sensitive.
He searched every room, listening carefully at each doorway, but he couldn't hear any breathing sounds from someone sleeping.
It seemed that no one was on the first floor, so he began to search the second floor. When he arrived at a room directly opposite the second-floor stairwell, he stopped and listened carefully for a while. Sure enough, he heard a soft snoring sound coming from inside.
He slowly pushed open the door and saw a person lying asleep on the bed in the darkness. He walked over carefully and took a closer look. He realized that it was not Zhang Pei, but another guard. In fact, it didn't matter anymore. He would not leave a single person alive in this apartment today.
