Chapter 1105: Professional Agent

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

It was raining hard and the sky was dark. Although the temperature inside the car didn’t change much, Zhao Yu felt a cold breeze. That kind of coldness seemed to be able to penetrate his marrow and reach straight into his heart.

“Where are they going?” Cui Lizhu stared at the blue truck without blinking. “They bought the tools. Are they really looking for the treasure? Is the treasure hidden in Linshe?” She took a look at the map in her cell phone and said uncertainly, “It seems that they are going into the mountains, right? From the west side?”

“It’s too early to say anything now.” Zhao Yu was careful when he was driving the car. “Let’s wait and see.” In order not to keep the people in the truck from noticing them, Zhao Yu deliberately slowed down the car speed and kept a distance. After ten minutes, the truck went into the mountain and then went north.

The narrow roads in the mountain, coupled with the heavy rain made driving difficult. Zhao Yu was more careful, and the wipers had already reached the maximum speed. With such heavy rain, there were very few cars on the road. Because the blue truck had turned on its headlights, even though it was far away, it was still a clear target, so Zhao Yu wasn’t worried about losing it.

Zhao Yu and the Jeep behind him followed the truck for half an hour. After a while, Zhao Yu and Cui Lizhu become very curious about where they were going as the car went in the direction of Yishan Fortress in Linshe. Cui Lizhu frowned. “Where are they heading? If they want to go to Yishan Fortress, it’s obvious they are making a detour. Are they really going to dig the treasure up? How could the treasure be in Yishan Fortress?”

Cui Lizhu suddenly thought of something and said hastily, “Boss. Boss. Maybe the Japanese lied to us? They lied to us for 80 years. Is it possible that the treasure was buried in Yishan Fortress this whole time?”

“Ah? What are you saying?” Zhao Yu had been deep in thought. Hearing what Cui Lizhu said, his thoughts were interrupted.

“Ha! I got it. Finally!” Cui Lizhu pointed to the map and said, “The Japanese are really cunning. Yishan Fortress is just a cover-up. The secret lies under the fortress. Maybe there is a hidden fortress below? They buried the treasure there so that no one would know their secret. Think about it. Linshe is so close to Feng Ping. The transportation is convenient. And...” Cui Lizhu thought for a moment then added, “Yuan Juncheng stayed in Linshe for the longest time during his work for the Secret Service. He might have found something there. That’s also what led to his death.”

“But...” Zhao Yu frowned. “First of all, if the treasure is hidden below Yishan Fortress, how can the Japanese not know that? They even can’t find it themselves.”

“It’s top secret.” Cui Lizhu pouted her lips. “The Japanese even killed their own people. All the people who knew the secret are dead.”

Zhao Yu pointed to the truck in front of him. “Second, there is a shorter way from the hardware store to Yishan Fortress. Why did they take a long way around?” he asked.

“It’s too obvious to take the main road. They want to hide their real purpose,” Cui Lizhu said.

“Third,” Zhao Yu continued, “the Secret Service says that scientists have used advanced scientific instruments to search all of the Japanese fortifications for the treasure, including Yishan Fortress. They didn’t find anything.”

“Um... This... Well...” Cui Lizhu was no longer confident in her guess. “Maybe, it’s buried very deep?”

“What I’m worried about the most now is that what they are doing has nothing to do with the treasure,” Zhao Yu said worriedly.

“Oh? How can it be unrelated to the treasure?” Cui Lizhu shook her head. “The two brothers are descendants of senior Japanese officials. Their father and Yuan Juncheng had a close relationship, and most importantly, they were reported missing. The date of their disappearance coincides with the murder of the first expert. This is definitely not a coincidence.”

“But...” Zhao Yu said uncertainly, “What if the two brothers just took a job related to digging mountains and stones? Maybe it’s not what we think. According to the Secret Service, Tian Zheng was the director of the Geological Bureau, and Tian brothers are in charge of outsourcing projects of the geological team of the Secret Service. They have a large amount of geological mining experience. So... It’s possible that they took a private mining job.”

While talking, Zhao Yu looked at his system interface. The two characters, Kun Gen, were still there. Though he still had doubts, Zhao Yu was reassured by the hexagram. He thought that as long as the hexagram continued, he was not wasting his time. However, he still was hesitant. He felt that something was not right.

“No. Haha.” Unexpectedly, Cui Lizhu seemed much more optimistic than Zhao Yu. She clapped him on the shoulder and said, “That doesn’t make sense. If the two brothers really did take private work, they wouldn’t have been reported missing. That would attract the police’s attention. I don’t think that’s what they want.”

“Hey.” Zhao Yu’s eyes lit up as he praised her. “I’m impressed. You are my best student...” However, Zhao Yu didn’t finish. The blue truck in front of him suddenly turned onto a narrow path. Because it was raining heavily, the path was extremely muddy. The truck was shaking violently as it drove on the path.

Zhao Yu smacked his lips. He suddenly realized something important and immediately stopped at the turn. The Jeep following behind came up and stopped beside Zhao Yu’s car. As Zhao Yu rolled down the window, he saw a familiar face in the Jeep. It was a Secret Service agent who had been beaten by him before. He still had a bandage on his nose.

“Team leader Zhao, why did you stop?” the man asked anxiously. He had to speak very loudly to be heard over the rain.

“We are not going now,” Zhao Yu said. “There are very few cars on the path. If we go on following them, they will surely spot us. We have to turn off the lights.” The agent looked at the dark and muddy path. He thought that Zhao Yu was making things difficult for him on purpose. “It’s not that hard. You follow me. Just be careful.” Zhao Yu appeared confident about driving in the dark because he had an Invisible Night Vision. He planned to use it in his car so that he could drive without turning on the lights.

“Wait a minute.” Unexpectedly, the agent stopped Zhao Yu and handed him a black object. Zhao Yu looked at it and saw that it was a pair of real night vision goggles. This guy really was a professional. “Group leader Zhao, you can see the road clearly in the dark by wearing this. Be careful. Or, we can go first and you follow us,” the agent said to Zhao Yu in a kind voice.

“Thanks, but I don’t think that’s necessary.” Zhao Yu took the night vision goggles, then turned off the car lights. The night vision goggles were powerful. In the dark, Zhao Yu could see the path, and even the rain, clearly.

Cui Lizhu looked at her mobile phone and said, “We are close to Yishan Fortress. Boss, so they are really going to dig for the treasure below the fortress?”
