Five minutes later, Shi Feng returned and told Luo Zheng that the personnel were in position, waiting in the parking lot outside. Luo Zheng appreciated Shi Feng's decisive style. The two walked outside and arrived at the parking lot. Luo Zheng drove the lead car while the others followed. Luo Zheng noticed through the rearview mirror three cars behind them, along with two motorcycles. Luo Zheng recognized Shi Feng's off-road vehicle. The other two were regular small cars, inconspicuous, as were the motorcycles. But everyone's driving skills were good, tightly keeping up from behind.
Seeing the two motorcycles, Luo Zheng couldn't help but smile, silently praising Shi Feng's thorough consideration. In the traffic-congested environnt of Beijing, motorcycles are undoubtedly the best tool for pursuing suspects, unaffected by traffic jams. Looking at the motorcycle riders, with petite figures, wearing leather jackets and helts, they were likely won. Having two won follow along was also good, making it more convenient to protect the mother and daughter.
The group arrived at the community. The gate sentry had already been alerted by the General, and upon seeing Luo Zheng, imdiately let them through. Luo Zheng ntioned that the people behind him ca with him, so they were also let through right away. The group stopped at the villa entrance, and after Luo Zheng got out of the car, he was about to call Shi Feng and the others to go inside when a guard strode over, causing Luo Zheng to pause and curiously look at him.
The guard approached, forcing a slight smile with so awkwardness, and said, "Brother, we're from the sa unit. Can you let us stay? You know, we've always been responsible for the General's safety. If we're just sent back like this, we'd have nothing to do."
"The General is going to a critical negotiation, this information has already been released. You're aware that soone might try to control the General by targeting his family. They've already been gathering intelligence nearby. I'm sure many eyes are watching us right now. Your security asures have already been breached, and they've understood your actions and character. Do you still think it's appropriate?" Luo Zheng retorted bluntly. In matters of great importance, there was no room for personal feelings.
"We understand, but going back like this would be a significant stain on our careers, and none of the brothers are willing. How about this? We appear to retreat, but after that, we'll quietly infiltrate the community and act as your surprise force, how does that sound?" the guard quickly suggested.
The pride and honor of a soldier do not allow for failure or to be dismissed—it was more excruciating than death. Luo Zheng understood their feelings and pondered. Seeing hope, the guard promised earnestly, "I assure you, we will follow all your commands. Look, the brothers are all eagerly waiting, can you give us a chance?"
"What's your na?" Luo Zheng curiously inquired.
"Niu Gang, rank Lieutenant, the person in charge here," the other party quickly replied, looking expectant. Niu Gang had seen Luo Zheng's ID, Major rank, three levels higher than his own, and dared not be presumptuous. Serving under the sa designation, Niu Gang knew anyone who beca a Major was not easy, as the Central Guard Corps did not show favor, only strength mattered.
"Alright, I'll give you the opportunity. We'll have dinner together later to get acquainted for future work. After dinner, you must leave, and you must be in position by tomorrow dinner. I don't need to teach you how to get in, but you must ensure not to arouse any suspicion. Once settled, call ," Luo Zheng stated seriously, giving his number to the other party.
Niu Gang eagerly agreed, saluted gratefully, and hurried off to talk to his brothers. Luo Zheng motioned for Shi Feng and the others to co over, and after entering the iron gates, Luo Zheng said, "You should familiarize yourselves with the surrounding environnt and terrain. If there's anything unclear, ask them. Shi Feng, co inside with first."
"Yes." Everyone stood up and responded, quickly dispersing to busy themselves. As experienced criminal police of the Major Cris Unit, there was no need for Luo Zheng to elaborate. They knew what to do and how to do it.
Luo Zheng led Shi Feng into the living room and saw Lan Xue chatting with the General. Ghost Hand, Snow Leopard, and Mountain Eagle were already in position, adjusting surveillance as requested by Lan Xing. Luo Zheng approached with Shi Feng and introduced them to the General, "This is Shi Feng, head of the city bureau's Major Cris Unit. We've partnered a few tis and our cooperation was quite smooth. They have extensive criminal investigation experience and no one would guess I'd call them to help."
"Mm, very good. I've said it before, you're in charge here, so I won't ask much. I trust you can handle it. Shi Feng, right? Have a seat and make yourself comfortable. Ensuring the safety of my family requires your effort," the General said politely, appraising Shi Feng with satisfaction.
Local detectives are not only familiar with the environnt but also have widespread contacts, making coordination easier. They can make up for Luo Zheng and the others' shortcomings. The seasoned General easily saw the advantages and felt more assured with Luo Zheng's arrangent.
Initially, Shi Feng didn't know which General it was, but upon seeing him, he instantly recognized the often-seen face from television. His expression changed significantly, and he respectfully stepped forward, saluting earnestly and said, "Thank you, sir, for your praise. This is my duty and also my honor. Unless I die, I will ensure the completion of the task with them."
Shi Feng had never known how to address Luo Zheng, unaware of both his na and codena. In front of the General, addressing Luo Zheng as 'chief' seed inappropriate, so he used "them" as a substitute. Unaware of the inside story, the General detected the familiarity between the two from the word "them," smiling reassuringly, and said, "Don't talk about death. We all share one life. If it weren't for the fear of others using my family to threaten , jeopardizing national interests, I wouldn't dare disturb you to protect them. My family wouldn't be qualified to receive your protection. In short, everything is for the country, I rely on all of you."
"It's our duty," Shi Feng quickly said, not daring to be arrogant, inwardly elated. This was a core-level General of the country. Completing this task well, who would dare vie for that position with him? Indeed, it's a great fortune. Shi Feng cast a grateful glance at Luo Zheng, vowing silently to cooperate fully and complete the mission.
Luo Zheng noticed that Mrs. Liu and Liu Qingqing were not present, glancing at Lan Xue, who gestured upstairs. Luo Zheng understood, and in a low voice inford the General, "General, I plan to have Niu Gang and his group leave for now and discreetly infiltrate tomorrow as surprise reinforcents. What do you think?"
"Good, like I said, you're in charge here. As long as you're confident, I'll make a call to the relevant people to inform them," the General paused, then realized Luo Zheng's intentions, responding with gratitude and complying fully. Niu Gang and his team had provided close protection for many years, working hard despite the lack of recognition. Sending them away abruptly seed wasteful. The General was worried about this, and Luo Zheng's thorough plan reassured him, regarding Luo Zheng more highly.
