Chapter 269 Hmm? Using the wolf pack to ambush Xia Zhining? The warriors descended like divine soldiers, and several dark figures tore open the tent curtains like sharp swords in the snowy night, instantly rushing in!
A biting wind, carrying snowflakes, rushed in, accompanied by a sharp shout: "Don't move!"
The bespectacled spy was startled by the sudden attack.
What's going on?
The military's arrival came completely out of the blue!
The bespectacled man reacted extremely quickly; almost the instant he saw the newcomer's attire, his body instinctively lunged towards the equipment on the table.
The color drained from his face, leaving only a twisted, ferocious expression. With all his remaining strength, he slammed down on the self-destruct button.
However, nothing happened.
The expected system warning tone did not sound, nor did the sound of the hard drive being destroyed come.
The device screen remained steadily lit, and the progress bar continued to advance slowly, as if silently mocking his futile efforts.
"No...this is impossible!" The bespectacled man's eyes widened in horror, but he was held down firmly by the soldier.
The technician quickly stepped forward to inspect, then turned around, his face beaming with barely suppressed joy: "Report! The data self-destruct transmission line has been physically severed, and all intelligence has been preserved intact!"
Almost at the same time, Snowball, accompanied by two little followers, nimbly slipped out from the shadows of the clutter behind the equipment and returned to a safe area away from the tent.
Then, the snowball lightly climbed onto Xia Zhining's shoulder.
It proudly shook its whiskers, held its little head high, and perfectly embodied the attitude of "keeping its merits hidden."
Inside the tent, the burly man, subdued on the ground, stared in disbelief and blurted out, "Little Glasses! What kind of lousy technique is that! It's completely useless when it really matters!"
Shang Wu stepped forward, looking down at the two men whose faces were ashen: "Where are your other accomplices?"
"If you confess honestly now, you can still try to get leniency."
The bespectacled man tried to remain calm, adjusting his crooked glasses: "We have no accomplices, just the two of us."
He and the burly man both chose to remain silent.
They all knew that the man with glasses needed to manually send a safety signal every hour to complete the device.
Once teammates lose signal, they will immediately realize something is wrong and quickly evacuate or flee.
Seeing the two remain silent, Shangwu smiled instead of getting angry.
He strode up to the two men, his voice low but each word piercing: "So protective of your accomplice?"
"Have you ever wondered why we were able to find your little tent so precisely in this vast snow-covered mountain, as if we had eyes?"
Shang Wu straightened up, his tone tinged with a mocking pity: "Of course, it's because 'our own people' showed us the way."
"You probably don't know this yet, do you? Someone already used your whereabouts to get lenient treatment in exchange."
These words were like an ice pick, instantly piercing through their feigned composure.
They exchanged a glance, their mouths still tightly shut, but the shock and suspicion in their eyes were growing wildly like weeds.
How could the military be so fast?
Despite the vast snow-capped mountains, they seemed to be guided straight to this place...
If it wasn't a traitor within the team, then it must be... that the rocks and plants in the mountains have become spirits and informed the military!
Of course, the latter doesn't fit their logic at all.
As Xia Zhining listened to Shang Wu's psychological warfare tactics over the communication channel, she couldn't help but secretly gasp.
This move was truly ruthless, directly planting the seeds of infighting in the other party's mind.
