Zhong Yun could feel that for a split second, the other party really made a murderous attempt.

He was also a little nervous at that time, after all, the space he was in was under the absolute control of the other party, if he really wanted to make some small moves, it was just a matter of moving his fingers.

Maybe Yang Shaowen didn't want him to die before he played a role, but before he stopped him, he probably died...

All kinds of speculations flashed through Zhong Yuncong's mind like lightning. His nerves were tense and his fists were clenched, but he still hadn't figured out how to meet the killer move that would come at any time.

According to that guy's method, his body and head may be separated in the next second... and he doesn't know where his head will be thrown.

It's really hard to guard against.

Just when Zhong Yuncong felt that half of his foot had stepped into the gate of hell, the cold murderous intent that enveloped him suddenly dissipated, and as the coercion decreased, his breathing also loosened, but after taking two breaths, he stopped. After realizing it, I found that my forehead was covered with cold sweat.

Although the opponent never made any real attack from the beginning to the end, Zhong Yuncong still had an indescribable feeling of being alive after a catastrophe. He glanced at the middle-aged man who had never said a word so far with lingering fear. Focusing, with an indifferent aura isolated from the outside world, he did not respond to Zhong Yuncong's peeping.

It was as if the danger just now was just Zhong Yuncong's illusion.

The little episode that only the person concerned came to an end, the split space channel quickly transported the group of people to their destination, and Zhong Yun was caught off guard and transformed from the top-heavy semi-weightless space to the real environment.

He hadn't been able to adapt to the feeling of being down-to-earth for a while, and his dizziness hadn't subsided yet, his center of gravity was unstable, and he staggered a bit.

At this time, someone helped him, and he subconsciously thanked him: "Thank you..."

As a result, when he raised his eyes, he found that the person who was helping him was Yang Shaowen. The base of his tongue froze, and he silently swallowed the rest of the words, and at the same time moved the other party's hand away without any trace.

His cover wasn't that good, so Yang Shaowen couldn't fail to see it, but he just smiled, withdrew his hand, and opened the distance between them tactfully.

Zhong Yuncong was silent, this feeling of breaking into the wolf's den alone and having to act with the pack of wolves...is really strange.

"This is the Fenghuo Machinery Factory, but it's hard to see it now." Yang Shaowen waved his hand, and immediately several people turned on the flashlights, and several beams of light scattered in all directions, illuminating this area as bright as day, which was originally indistinct. The scene immediately became clear.

What the thin man said was true. It is said that this was originally the location of a military factory. Large and small mud pits, sand and stones are just weeds everywhere.

This is not an exaggerated description, but rather realistic - square pits one after another, ranging from a few meters shallow to more than ten meters deep. Through the area of ​​those pits, one can estimate the scale of the building where it used to be.

Tsk, even the foundation is gone, the traces of the military factory have been scraped clean, it looks like an abandoned construction site.

I don't know if they were all shocked by this situation, but none of the people present made a sound. The night wind passed by, and the stretches of wild grass moved in response to the wind, making a faint whimpering sound, which made the gloomy ruins look like a ghost land.

Yang Shaowen inspected the surrounding area, but did not find anyone other than them or wandering aliens, temporarily excluding potential threats, his eyes fell on Zhong Yuncong's face: "Let's get started."

Zhong Yuncong was also looking at the surrounding environment. When he suddenly heard Yang Shaowen's words, he choked angrily: "You think I'm a god? How can I start without farts here?"

His words made Yang Shaowen's complexion look unattractive, the corners of his eyes sank, and his thin face suddenly became a bit gloomy: "You want to go back on your word?"

Zhong Yuncong laughed: "No, you're too sensitive... I'm all here, what are you afraid of? I don't mean to regret it, but there is really nothing here, and I can't make something out of nothing, right?"

The thin man glanced at him, and he didn't seem to believe his words: "But you have established contact with the hidden Fenghuo Machinery Factory before..."

"Didn't your intelligence agent tell you?" Zhong Yun interrupted his questioning coldly, with sarcasm between the lines, "Has the previous contact been cut off again?"

The so-called intelligence officer is naturally a mocking term, but Zhong Yuncong is not happy at all—there is definitely a traitor inside the Management Bureau. This is a certain fact, and Yang Shaowen obviously does not intend to hide it.

It turns out that the Governance Bureau is not monolithic.

In addition to sighing, Zhong Yuncong was more concerned about who the ghost was.

The scope seems to be very limited. As the first-hand source of this information, there are only three people in total.

In chronological order, they are Xu Yang, Su Xian, and Zong Zhengze.

On the basis of preventing himself from leaking the news unintentionally, he first ruled out Su Xian.

He couldn't deny that there was no personal emotional factor in it, but it was more due to his trust in Su Xian's character.

He is definitely not the type to do such a thing.

The second is Zong Zhengzheng. The reasons are basically the same as above. In addition, his identity is added. If the top leader of the Management Bureau can also become a traitor, then this department should be disbanded as soon as possible.

The remaining Xu Yang is the most suspected one.

Zhong Yuncong and Xu Yang are just ordinary colleagues. They don't have much contact in private, and their impressions are limited to labels such as being capable and easy to get along with. As for a deeper understanding, it's really hard to talk about it.

Could he be the leaker?

Zhong Yuncong's thoughts turned into a mess, although he really felt that Xu Yang was the most suspicious of the three, but he didn't have any evidence, and he couldn't just convict Xu Yang without proof.

What if it wasn't him?

What if... something goes wrong in other links?Although he racked his brains and couldn't figure out what went wrong.

Yang Shaowen's gaze meaningfully swept across Zhong Yuncong who suddenly fell into silence, as if he guessed his distress, he smiled again: "Since you said so, well, do whatever you want... Anyway, we There is no shortage of time."

The meaning of this is that they are not afraid of the Ice Girl going back to rescue soldiers. That's right, they have a space power person who can escape at any time, so naturally they don't pay attention to the pursuers of the Administration Bureau.

Zhong Yuncong was not frustrated by this, because when he made the decision to go to the meeting alone, he had no intention of running away, at least not before finding out the whereabouts of the military factory.

Because he really needs the power of that powerful spatial ability user, he alone cannot reach the beacon fire.

"Then let's go first." Zhong Yuncong got off the donkey and began to stroll around like a leisurely stroll. Yang Shaowen didn't express any opinion on this, but led a group of younger brothers to follow him around in circles.

Zhong Yuncong wasn't exactly playing tricks on the other party, he wandered around this desolate place purposefully for a long time, but he didn't feel any special feeling.

He is also very helpless about this.

After walking around most of the area, he finally got tired of walking. He slowed down and waited for Yang Shaowen to catch up.

The skinny man is so shrewd, just by looking at his actions, he can guess that the other party has something to say to him.

He was also very cooperative, speeding up his pace to keep up, and then, the two walked side by side.

Yang Shaowen didn't bother with him, so he went straight to the point: "Ask whatever you want."

Zhong Yuncong immediately poked his nose up and raised his face: "I asked, and you can answer?"

The other party smiled: "You asked you, as for whether to return or not, that is my business."

Zhong Yuncong gave him an angrily sideways glance, then silently turned his face away.

"If you don't ask, you won't even have the chance to hear my answer."

No matter how he heard it, Zhong Yun felt that the other party was retaliating against him for leading them around the corner, but he had to admit that his words were not without reason.

"Since you've said that, wouldn't it be shameful for me not to ask?" Zhong Yuncong quickly asked his first question, "Who is your secret agent in the Management Bureau?"

Yang Shaowen glanced at him with a half-smile, obviously not surprised by this question, he shrugged: "What are you talking about? The only person I have friendship with in the Administrative Bureau is you."

Zhong Yuncong was very dissatisfied with his wrong answer, and he sneered back: "You will never tell me that I am the ghost, right? Why don't I know?"

"In a sense, you really can't get away with it."

For a moment, Zhong Yun couldn't tell whether the other party was teasing or practicing Tai Chi, maybe it was a combination of both, but it still hit his sore spot and made him a little ashamed.

"Okay, I know you won't tell me." He ended the topic resentfully, and then asked the second question, "What does my father, Zhong Zhiyuan, have to do with your 'Shadow'?"

Yang Shaowen sneered: "Zhong Zhiyuan, are you sure that's his name?"

Zhong Yuncong's breathing was stagnant, but he quickly returned to normal: "The name is not the point, you just need to tell me the connection between you."

"It seems that you don't know everything." Yang Shaowen smiled, and then nodded, "It's okay to answer this question...he can be regarded as one of our bosses."

After he finished speaking, he enjoyed Zhong Yuncong's reaction playfully - the latter was not as shocked as he imagined, and he had expected it, but the disappointment and pain in his eyes couldn't be hidden, almost overflowing his eyes. His facial muscles twitched violently, and his facial features were almost distorted.

It seems that this incident really hit him hard.

Yang Shaowen had a kind of schadenfreude.

"Where is he?"

The third question, but Yang Shaowen really can't answer it this time: "He disappeared for a while, I don't know where he went."

Facing Zhong Yuncong's questioning eyes, he made a helpless gesture: "I didn't lie to you, he is the boss, we can only bow our heads and obey our ears, how can we ask his whereabouts."

The conversation didn't affect their pace. Unknowingly, they had passed through most of the factory area. Zhong Yuncong didn't comment on Yang Shaowen's answer. He was silent for a while, and he changed to the fourth question.

"You just said that he is just one of your bosses." He looked calm, and the violent mood swings not long ago had faded away. "It means, are there other bosses?"

Yang Shaowen glanced at him, but didn't speak.

Zhong Yuncong regarded him as acquiescing, but he didn't intend to ask further, because he also knew how the other party could just tell his old story out like this.

Unless he's undercover.

But just when he thought that the thin man was going to pretend to be deaf and dumb to the end, the other party suddenly said: "Yes. To be honest, your father is also an agent, and he is not the one who really has the final say."

Zhong Yun looked at him from the side, and for a moment, he was speechless.

Agent, there is another person behind the scenes.Did Yang Shaowen's revelations comfort him?

the answer is negative.

Zhong Yuncong closed his eyes, with a bitter taste in his mouth.

"You don't need to ask any more questions," said the thin man, "but I am interesting enough, right? So, can you reciprocate and stop wasting time?"

When Zhong Yuncong heard this, he stopped in his tracks.

He kept his eyes on a cypress tree beside the abandoned factory area. It stood upright and lonely among the fingers of a deserted area, somewhat out of place.

"Almost, I found the 'key'."
