"Is this... the Security Managent Institute's base?" Lin Tian asked.
"Not the base of the Security Managent Institute, but the base of the Special Operations Unit of the Security Managent Institute," Chen Moxiang explained.
"What's the difference between the two?"
"This is a branch of the Security Managent Institute. Do I need to explain the difference?"
As they spoke, the elevator had already reached the bottom.
"This building we are in has a total of 18 floors. You saw earlier that only 8 floors are above ground. The 10 floors below are the territory of our Special Operations Unit."
As he spoke, Chen Moxiang had already exited the elevator, with Lin Tian following closely behind.
Stepping out of the elevator, they were greeted by an extrely spacious area. On the front wall hung more than a dozen displays, and below was a circular office that could accommodate over three hundred people.
Adjacent to the office was a corridor, with closed doors on either side, and it was hard to count how many rooms there were at a glance.
Lin Tian also noticed that the most abundant were the nurous precision caras overhead, giving the place a full sense of technology and capturing everything without a blind spot, like a movie set.
Notably, the air inside was extrely well-ventilated, and the soft white lighting made it as bright as daylight.
Lin Tian really couldn't imagine such a large secret base hidden in a place as expensive as Kanyue City.
One had to comnd the people at the Security Managent Institute for being impressive.
Chen Moxiang belonged to the Sixth Unit, so this place was the sixth underground floor.
"Wait a mont; you'll first et the team mbers for tonight's operation," Chen Moxiang said, walking up to the dozen large screens, found a button amid the multitude of buttons, pressed it, and said, "Everyone, gather in the hall."
Soon, the doors in the corridor opened, and either one, two, or three people erged from the rooms.
Lin Tian looked at them, and they looked back at Lin Tian.
About twenty, mostly in their twenties or thirties, which was relatively young combat strength, erged.
Lin Tian couldn't understand how Chen Moxiang could be their captain when she should be considered quite young among them.
There were both n and won, with more n; there were only seven won.
"Captain," they greeted Chen Moxiang, then sat at their respective tables, waiting for her to speak.
Chen Moxiang didn't show any sign of stage fright and declared loudly, "Alright, I believe you're all aware of tonight's 'Anti-Virus Operation'. I won't say more nonsense."
She then pointed to Lin Tian, introducing, "This is Lin Tian. I invited him as a special assistant."
Upon hearing this, the expressions of those present varied. They were all elites; being elite gave them a reason for pride.
"Boss, he looks very young, not even twenty, right?"
"He looks like a student. Why did you bring him along?"
"I know this person. He's the famous Lin Tian on the internet, known for high dical skills. Is he here to prevent a virus leak today, as our designated doctor?"
"Is breaking a virus that easy? Why do we need a doctor?"
Lin Tian listened to all of it but didn't say much. In his eyes, impressive as these people might be, they were just so-so.
These were Chen Moxiang's subordinates, so she knew their personalities well, and added, "In fact, we have worked with Lin Tian before. Last ti at the Cultural Square, he single-handedly infiltrated a building under the watch of the Sakula Country people and retrieved forty-seven national treasures. So, you'd better tone down your arrogance."
Hearing Chen Moxiang's description, everyone's expressions visibly changed.
That operation was indeed a remarkable feat. Even the hardcore ones in attendance had to give a thumbs up.
Suddenly, a man in his thirties with very well-developed muscles stood up and said in a gruff voice, "Brother, I'm ng and I really admire capable young people like you. Let's have a match if there's ti."
Lin Tian was at a loss. Wasn't "admire" used differently? Plus, this guy's last na was also ng, just like ng Nan, candid but with notably strong limbs.
Another woman in her thirties with a voluptuous figure chuckled, "Little handso guy, why not quit this assistant thing? Join our Sixth Group instead. Sister here still has a spot."
With the two breaking the ice, others also started making harmless jokes with Lin Tian. For a mont, the atmosphere was not as tense as before, but rather quite lively.
"Doctor Lin, do you still rember ?" A soft voice was heard, and Lin Tian turned to see a woman with shoulder-length hair, exuding a dignified and elegant aura.
"You look familiar," Lin Tian answered truthfully.
"dical Conference Auction, Jiang Huaisi, PR Queen."
Jiang Huaisi said three keywords in quick succession. Lin Tian snapped his fingers, recalling that she was introduced to him by Yan Xinrou as Kanyue City's top PR Queen at the dical Conference auction site. He had even received her business card. Forgetting her was apparently a bit impolite now.
"Haha, sorry, I forgot for a mont. My apologies, Huaisi." Lin Tian chuckled.
"Oh my, Huaisi, how do you already know this little handso guy? It seems like he doesn't rember you. Who would've thought the PR Queen has shortcomings in charm?" Another girl joked.
It was clear they had good relations among themselves, or it wouldn't have been so lively. To be honest, Lin Tian enjoyed this kind of atmosphere.
"What brings you here?" Lin Tian asked Jiang Huaisi, puzzled.
"Isn't it normal for Security Managent Institute mbers to be hidden in the city?" Jiang Huaisi replied with a smile.
This finally dawned on Lin Tian.
At this mont, Chen Moxiang clapped her hands and said, "Alright, enough chatting for now. Let's get to business first. After a successful operation, Lin Tian will treat us to dinner."
Again, a chorus of approval echoed, followed by serious work.
First, a bespectacled, very gentle-looking youth nicknad '烈酒' walked to the large screen, displayed a picture, and said, "Everyone, this picture is an aerial view of Hongcai Port. Based on information from Qiao Gaoshan, the target vessel is expected to dock around this point at 4 AM tonight."
Then, the aerial view was enlarged, clearly showcasing the surrounding environnt.
One had to admit, luck was on their side this ti. The dock area was surrounded by nurous containers, ideal for concealing people.
Of course, even without these containers, the Security Managent Institute would find a way to set up the area in advance.
