Chapter 159: 158, Pursuit

Lu Hanmo scanned the surroundings and, just as Mo Shaoze had said, there were absolutely no traces left by the other party. Still, he could catch a faint scent left in the air. Due to his intensive training, he had become extremely sensitive to smells.

"I’ll go check over there," Lu Hanmo said, and in a flash, he bounded away like a cheetah, disappearing from sight in the blink of an eye.

"Lu Hanmo, wait for me!" Mo Shaoze reacted, trying to follow, but realized he could no longer see Lu Hanmo’s figure, "Damn! When did this kid get so fast?"

Two figures raced through the mountains, and Zhang Jiao, panting heavily, stopped, her face as pale as paper, struggling for breath. These past days, aside from being interrogated upon arrival, she was not mistreated at the training camp. Perhaps it was because she hadn’t exercised in a long time, her physical strength had declined significantly.

"Why have you stopped running?" the man in front stopped and walked back to Zhang Jiao to ask.

His face was covered with a black cloth, and apart from his wolf-like eyes revealed outside, his facial features were completely invisible. If not for his voice and height, even his gender would be indistinguishable.

"I can’t run anymore..." Zhang Jiao said, gasping for air.

"Aren’t you one of the elite members of the Divine Eagle Group? How can your stamina be so poor?" the man said dissatisfiedly. He had rescued Zhang Jiao with the intention of her relaying the news about Yan Country’s upcoming covert operatives to MD country. Now, it seemed like he had chosen the wrong person.

"I don’t know if it’s because I haven’t exercised for too long, or because that woman pricked my waist with a needle last time," Zhang Jiao said. After Luo Shu poked her with the needle, she had felt completely weak. Although her strength had gradually returned, something still felt off.

"Waste!" the man cursed angrily, though he knew he had no choice but to continue this mission with Zhang Jiao regardless of his dissatisfaction.

He couldn’t make international calls, and his subordinates were not familiar with MD country. Even if he sent them to MD country, it wasn’t guaranteed they could contact the person he wanted to notify anytime soon.

However, Zhang Jiao was different; she was a spy trained by the Divine Eagle Group of MD country. The leader of the Divine Eagle Group, Wu Cilang, and the man he wanted to inform were good friends. As long as Zhang Jiao returned to MD country, the message would immediately reach him through the Divine Eagle Group. By then, if Lu Hanmo and his group infiltrated MD country, they would be walking into a trap.

"There’s someone coming!" Upon hearing the sound of approaching footsteps, the masked man’s expression changed immediately, and he pulled Zhang Jiao to run forward.

From a distance, Lu Hanmo saw the two people ahead, and his pace quickened. With the increase in his strength, his speed had improved multiple times.

Hearing the ever-closer footsteps, the masked man cursed furiously and then stopped. He knew he couldn’t outrun Lu Hanmo; otherwise, Lu Hanmo wouldn’t have caught up so quickly.

Lu Hanmo approached the masked man and Zhang Jiao, staring coldly at the masked man, "Who are you?!" Whoever it was had to be from the training camp to have kidnapped Zhang Jiao without anyone noticing.

"Do you really think you can catch me, Lu Hanmo?" the man asked with a sneer, intentionally making his voice hoarse.

Lu Hanmo didn’t bother with small talk and instantly dashed towards the man to attack. No matter who it was, he had to capture him.

The man sneered coldly. As Lu Hanmo lunged at him, he grabbed Zhang Jiao forcefully and shoved her towards Lu Hanmo, while simultaneously pulling out a Smoke Bomb and throwing it hard to the ground.

"Bang!" Thick white smoke enveloped the area, and when it finally cleared, the man had vanished.

Lu Hanmo coolly looked at the spot where the man had disappeared, the corners of his mouth slowly curving into a slight smile.

"Finally done!" Luo Shu stretched, placing the last few bags of Healing Medicine into a bamboo basket nearby. It seemed she would need to partner with a glass factory to maintain the quality and effectiveness of the medicine powder.

She stood up, walked to the window, and opened it to look outside. She saw Luo Zheng and Qin Che practicing the Five Animal Frolics in the yard and smiled. Busy with work, she realized she had spent yet another full day at it.

After leaning by the window for a while, Luo Shu walked over to the telephone and placed a call. She was curious about the urgency in Hanmo’s voice when he hung up that morning — what could have happened?

Mo Shaoze answered and upon hearing Luo Shu’s voice, he smiled, "Lu Hanmo went to see the Commander. If there’s anything you need to discuss, you can tell me, and I’ll pass it on. Of course, if it’s too cheesy, you might prefer to wait until Lu Hanmo’s back."

"Get lost!" Luo Shu laughed and scolded, "I’ve finished making all the Healing Medicine. Are you guys going to pick it up, or should I have it delivered?" It made no difference discussing this matter with either Lu Hanmo or Mo Shaoze.

"That was quick! Let me check with the Commander, and I’ll get back to you," Mo Shaoze said, hanging up and heading towards Liu Changhe’s office.
