The next day, when it was time for the group to leave, Dai Yunfeng arranged a chartered plane to "send" the three back to China. In the VIP lounge at the airport, Dai Yunfeng, dressed in a sharp suit, the Chinese emblem on his chest gleaming under the lights, seemed to raise his voice slightly in front of the other delegation members, as if deliberately trying to make himself heard by those with ulterior motives.
"Xiao Zhang, I'm entrusting the company in China to you all to return to now. Leave things here to us. Remember, things there are very important; handle them carefully." Dai Yunfeng said this deliberately, to let the others know that they were returning to China because something had happened there and someone needed to go back to deal with it. "I'll have someone record the summit's proceedings, and we'll discuss them when we get back."
Han Feng smiled and agreed, "Okay, we'll definitely handle things properly when we get back, please rest assured, Mr. Dai."
Behind them, Su Wanwan, playing the role of an assistant, was busy organizing documents, while Liu Xiaoran remained silent as always. Security personnel gave their luggage a cursory glance, and with the guarantee of the Chinese delegation, even the routine baggage inspection was waived.
As Han Feng passed through the final security gate, his eyes briefly met Dai Yunfeng's. Dai Yunfeng nodded almost imperceptibly, a knowing glint in his eyes. Han Feng's lips curled into a slight smile, then he regained his composure and strode towards the boarding gate.
The plane taxied onto the runway on time, and the three of them happened to be seated in the very front row of first class. As soon as the door closing announcement sounded, Su Wanwan immediately opened her laptop and her fingers flew across the keyboard.
"The surveillance system has been taken over," she said in a low voice. "The airport system shows that we did indeed board the plane."
Liu Xiaoran scanned his surroundings, and after confirming there were no suspicious individuals, he took out three miniature devices from his pocket: "These are the communication devices Su Wanwan gave me; only the three of us can hear them."
Han Feng took the communicator and simultaneously produced a human skin mask. The group put it on, creating a completely different face on his face. Su Wanwan and Liu Xiaoran also completed their disguises, now appearing as three unremarkable Asian tourists.
Twenty minutes after takeoff, the indicator light on the lavatory door turned green. Han Feng was the first to stand up, followed closely by Liu Xiaoran. The crew of the chartered plane were also arranged by Long Yuan. After the display showed that they were out of the surveillance range, the two quickly opened the emergency escape hatch and jumped into the sea of clouds.
Su Wanwan remained in her seat and calmly closed her laptop. Her task was to reappear when the plane landed to ensure that the record of the "delegation's" departure was complete and accurate.
......
In the dead of night, at an abandoned dock in Country R, the waves gently lapped against the rusty foundations. Two dark figures silently emerged from the water, climbing onto the dock like ghosts.
"Pah, the seawater is so salty." Liu Xiaoran wrung out the water from the hem of his clothes, his voice extremely low.
Han Feng shook the water droplets off his hair and activated his headset: "Wanwan, are you in position?"
"I arrived early." Su Wanwan's voice came through the keyboard, accompanied by the sound of typing. "I'm in the port area's safe house, under surveillance for a three-kilometer radius. Longyuan's 'Shadow' team is in the next room, ready to provide support at any time."
Liu Xiaoran had already unfolded a waterproof map, with three red dots clearly marking the target locations: "The Miyamoto family's laboratory is underground in Ginza, disguised as a high-level medical center. The Makino family's is on an artificial island under their name, ostensibly a marine research institute. The Ikegami family's is more troublesome, located right beneath their ancestral home."
Han Feng traced a line across the map: "The three locations are arranged in a triangle, all within three kilometers of each other. If one location is attacked, the other two will receive an alert within five minutes."
"So we need to act simultaneously." Liu Xiaoran understood. "I've already discovered this in the Miyamoto family's system." He pulled up an encrypted file. "The joint defense system they installed was canceled during this family conflict."
Su Wanwan's voice suddenly came through the earpiece, slightly excited: "Breaking news! The three major families are on high alert, with every location on the highest alert. However—" She winked slyly, "I've prepared a 'gift,' enough to let their surveillance systems see whatever they want."
Han Feng nodded: "According to the plan, Xiao Ran will be in charge of the Miyamoto family, and I'll handle the other two. Wanwan, you'll be responsible for creating chaos and providing backup."
Liu Xiaoran inspected the weapons: "The Miyamoto family is currently leaderless, and their defenses should be the weakest. I estimate the demolition can be completed in twenty minutes."
"Okay, prioritize data destruction. If there are any reagents, destroy them as well," Han Feng corrected. "Elder Lin specifically emphasized the need to obtain their experimental records. Demolition is only a last resort."
The two exchanged a glance, and Liu Xiaoran nodded slightly. They both knew the level of danger involved in this operation.
"We'll move in an hour." Han Feng glanced at the time. "Wanwan, let's set off some 'fireworks' to liven things up."
Su Wanwan's laughter came through the earpiece: "Just wait and see the show!"
Liu Xiaoran left first, his figure quickly disappearing into the night. Han Feng remained where he was, closing his eyes to meditate. The power of the stars flowed within his body, gradually gathering in his palms. When he opened his eyes again, a dazzling ball of starlight had condensed between his hands.
\"point!\"
With a low shout, the starlight split in two. One half gradually stretched and deformed, eventually transforming into a humanoid shape identical to Han Feng. The clone moved its limbs and nodded to the main body.
"You're in charge of the Makino family," Han Feng said to his clone. "Detonate it once you get the data; don't linger."
The clone chuckled silently, turned, leaped onto the container, and disappeared in a few bounds. Han Feng took a deep breath and ran in the opposite direction. That was the ancestral home of the Chishang family. According to intelligence, there was another space of unknown purpose beneath the laboratory, and he would go there largely to explore it.
The countdown from Su Wanwan came through the earpiece: "Interference program to activate in ten seconds... Three, two, one!"
A series of explosions suddenly rang out in the distance, not real explosions, but electronic phantoms created by Su Wanwan hacking into the city's alarm system. Almost simultaneously, alarms went off at multiple properties belonging to the three major families, and guards rushed frantically to the wrong locations.
"Action!" Under Han Feng's command, the clone and Liu Xiaoran began to infiltrate in the darkness, while Han Feng himself silently arrived near the Chishang family's residence. The crowd was bustling, and many guards were going in and out of the Chishang family's residence, seemingly having received news that the family's property was under attack.
Taking advantage of the guards' inattention, Han Feng sneaked into the Chishang family compound. Following the route on the map in his memory, Han Feng quickly arrived at the entrance to the laboratory, which was an ancient well standing in the courtyard. There were no guards around, and it seemed that the Chishang family was very satisfied with their security measures. Han Feng flipped over and entered.
