My Wife is Actually a top-tier Soldier King?!
Chapter 554 - 554 554 Unbearable!

554: Chapter 554: Unbearable!

554: Chapter 554: Unbearable!

Speed is of the essence in war!

Wu Jie had rarely obtained results from interrogation, so naturally, he was intent on a clean sweep.

A large number of counterintelligence officers quickly headed toward Tianyuan Haoting.

Even faster were the helicopters.

Multiple helicopters soared into the sky, sweeping over the city at an ultra-low altitude, and swooping down toward the residential area.

Fully armed special forces descended from above.

Some landed on the rooftops, while others touched down in the green belts of the neighborhood.

From the upper floors and below, they pinched the target from both directions.

Meanwhile, on the road to the neighborhood.

Wu Jie had an ominous premonition.

Sure enough!

Before the convoy even entered the urban area, the air support division had bad news to report.

“…Alright, I got it!

Okay, continue to be on alert and await orders at your current position!”

After hanging up the phone, Zheng let out a heavy sigh.

“What’s the problem?

An empty nest when we got there?” Wu Jie asked teasingly, with a not-quite-smiling expression.

Zheng acknowledged with a slight nod, “No helping it!

With Moweiqi captured for so long, if I were her accomplice, after her operation failed, I would immediately move out and evacuate.

I certainly wouldn’t wait to be caught red-handed!”

Wu Jie glanced at Tang Xiao.

In fact, during the interrogation of Moweiqi, Wu Jie had already considered this issue.

Given that these professional agents are highly specialized, have undergone various stringent trainings, and possess strong counter-surveillance awareness.

Then, with Moweiqi’s operation failed and her being captured, other accomplices would surely not continue to wait at their outpost.

Once the news of her capture spread.

Other agents who had connections with her would inevitably change their appearance and swiftly shift their disguises and locations.

Moreover, communication keys and contact methods known to Moweiqi would definitely be promptly replaced.

In the intelligence business, caution ensures an enduring operation.

Since Moweiqi was captured the night before, and so much time had passed since then, it would be odd if they weren’t caught in an empty net.

“Actually, whether we catch anyone is already irrelevant!”

Tang Xiao suddenly spoke up:

“If we do not resolve the root of the problem, assassinations will keep occurring one after the other.”

“Unless you’ve lost your lethal threat capabilities in the cyber domain, like if they technologically surpassed you!”

“But that’s highly unlikely, so assassinations are bound to happen for quite some time!”

“It’s still manageable within our country, but if we go abroad, it’s probably not just going to be assassinations.

It would be an open hunt!”

Wu Jie, lighting a cigarette, squinted and furrowed his brow in deep thought.

Having to deal with such a matter was truly irritating.

If it weren’t for considering the interests of the vast majority of ordinary people, Wu Jie would have already been fiercely retaliating.

Exhaling a puff of smoke, Wu Jie glanced at Zheng.

“Give a heads-up to the higher-ups!

My patience has its limits.

If I am subjected to another assassination, I will retaliate without a doubt!”

“By then, should the whole world plunge into chaos, don’t blame me for not warning in advance!”

Hearing this, Zheng’s expression tensed.

He knew that Wu Jie was not joking and was certainly not posturing!

If Wu Jie could effortlessly penetrate and invade the security defense systems of three major international giants,

then causing destruction was naturally a trivial task for him.

Tianyuan He Ying Credit Co….

This was a lesson from the past.

Even though Wu Jie never admitted it, the financial system of the company was allegedly tampered with through an invasion he conducted.

And despite many cyber experts called in, they could find no trace of the invasion.

But, in his heart, Zheng knew it was definitely Wu Jie’s doing.

With just a flicker of his anger, he caused billionaire Yuan Shikui to be clapped in irons and put behind bars.

And led He Ying Credit to suffer massive losses of four hundred billion, almost annihilating the credit industry…

Now!

Wu Jie was in an unprecedented rage.

What kind of destruction would he bring?

Zheng could hardly imagine!

Drawing a sharp breath, Zheng nodded repeatedly, not daring to neglect.

“Rest assured, I will report to the superiors immediately.

This matter will definitely catch the higher-ups’ full attention.”

Wu Jie waved his hand dismissively.

“How to negotiate is up to the senior officials.

I only want one of two outcomes, either we live in peace, or it all goes up in smoke!”

Zheng nodded again and again, specifically glancing at Tang Xiao.

He couldn’t help but think to himself.

Tang Xiao is indeed extremely bright!

Not only did she pinpoint the crux of the situation, but she also clearly understood what Wu Jie might do in a fit of rage.

Luckily!

Wu Jie is someone who considers the big picture and refrains from wanton revenge and self-indulgence.

Otherwise, the world would have been in chaos long ago.

…

Hum!

The alarm blared.

One after another, black sedans, led by police cars, roared towards Tianyuan Haoting.

Upon arriving at the scene and entering, they were met with a sight of total disarray.

After Moweiqi was netted, her accomplices must have evacuated in a hurry.

Many electronic devices were left behind and destroyed on the spot because there wasn’t enough time to take them.

For instance, several well-equipped computers had only their memory sticks and hard disks removed, making it impossible to retrieve the data inside.

But that wasn’t all.

In several rooms, many personal hygiene products and clothes were also left behind.

The fridge was stocked with a good number of ready-to-heat meals, suggesting these agents didn’t much care for cooking or meal preparation.

Neither of the two suites turned up weapons or ammunition after a thorough search.

There were, however, two paper shredders, and right before their departure, they had shredded a lot of secret documents, reducing them to powder, making it utterly impossible to recover them.

Besides that.

A huge map was also found, which, once unfolded, could nearly cover the entire room.

Because of special facilities and devices, location information was especially crucial.

After all, some true and false targets simply cannot be discerned by satellites.

Moreover, satellite reconnaissance mapping has less precision in positioning and imaging than close-range, high-resolution observation.

It’s like standing on a mountaintop and looking down at the base—how could that compare to walking up close for a more detailed and accurate view?

The map only covered a limited area.

It seemed this agent stronghold was responsible for just that mission’s scope.

They had divided different mission areas, operating independently to avoid the exposure of one site affecting the others.

As for the assassination attempt Wu Jie and Tang Xiao encountered in Huhai, it was certainly the doing of agents dispatched from a Huhai base.

The agents hidden on Tianyuan’s side, likely had no idea where to flee to.

Crafty hares have three burrows!

These cunning agents must have more than one hideout, certainly having other backup places to conceal themselves.

And the investigation, spread from housing information, naturally yielded nothing.

The property center provided some data.

The owner of both apartments was the same person who had been abroad for a long time.

Whether the property was rented to the agents or purchased for their use as a base was completely unclear.

After all, once the house was purchased, enough fees had been prepaid, so there was no need for the agents to show up and pay for utilities like property charges, water, or gas.

For a long time, they also used a single business car to enter and leave the community.

It’s just a pity…

This business car belonged to a car dealer from the used car market.

A long time ago, Moweiqi had signed a car rental contract with him under Alice’s name.

As it’s rather difficult for foreigners to buy cars domestically and licensing is quite troublesome, the car dealer didn’t pay much attention to it.

Looking back through the surveillance videos of the underground parking lot in the community, the driver was Alice, but how many people were in the car, that was unknown.

These sly agents, upon leaving, all took care to disguise themselves well, and when using the elevator, they certainly took it in batches.

…

Moweiqi’s associates were untraceable.

And of course, the two pricey apartments were seized without mercy.

A throng of plainclothes officers and special agents came in a rush and left just as quickly.

To avoid arousing suspicions among other residents, the community’s property management posted a notice, claiming it was only a safety drill.

The exercise was about how the police should efficiently handle sudden safety incidents in high-rise buildings.

Wu Jie and Tang Xiao didn’t go back with the others to that mysterious compound.

After rushing to and from Huhai, both were quite fatigued.

Back at home.

Tang Xiao called the old man to discuss the continuous assassination events, as Wu Jie was nearly at the end of his patience.

Although the old man had already stepped down, he still held a lot of sway in many matters.

And Wu Jie, of course, was busy cooking.

Since the message was clear, another assassination attempt would be met with a heavy price.

Having made this declaration, what was there left to fret over?

Wu Jie was secretly hoping the world’s superpower would defiantly refuse.

That way, he would naturally have a good reason to strike back.

When the time came, he wanted to see just how severe the losses to the world’s superpower would be.

But…

After making the call, Tang Xiao came to the kitchen door to deliver some very bad news.

“I know you’re itching for a good revenge, but contrary to your wishes, their envoy has already taken off!”

“They are expected to arrive in Liuli City tomorrow morning.

The old man said they are coming specifically for your matter.”

“Quite the clout and face you have there!

To make the world’s superpower send an envoy, you’re really something!”

Wu Jie raised his eyebrows upon hearing this.

“That’s not right.

I had just made my position clear to Zheng on the way here, how could their envoy have already departed?

Can they predict the future?”

Tang Xiao curled her lip, “For this kind of thing, do they even need Zheng to file a report?

Your second assassination attempt must have alerted the higher-ups.

Under the severe warning, the other side must have realized the seriousness of the situation!”

After a brief pause, Tang Xiao peeked at the ingredients Wu Jie had prepared.

“Make a bit more for dinner!

Eat well, then head to Liuli City!”

Wu Jie was taken aback.

“What the fuck!

Why should I go?

Do they expect me to personally participate in the high-level negotiations?”

“Nonsense!

With the envoy coming, how can you not meet?

Given your temperament, you’d definitely love to chastise them face-to-face, right?

To mock and ridicule them till they’re furious, even spit blood—that’s your usual style!!”

These words from Tang Xiao instantly sparked an idea for Wu Jie.

Damn!

If he could infuriate the envoy to the point of madness, how much energy could he gain?

Could he earn several million, or even tens of millions of energy points from their hatred?

For some reason, Wu Jie was suddenly looking forward to it.

Even feeling a bit of excitement…
