The First Order
Chapter 988 - Sting Operation
More and more people started gathering outside the neighborhood on Peony Avenue. Some of the Luoyang City residents worked during the day, but after hearing that their help was needed to identify the culprits, they immediately rushed over at night after work without going home.
Some of them even rushed over with their families to do their part for the cause.
The rowdy crowd that had gathered at the neighborhood's entrance made it a little difficult for vehicles to enter. If this were the past, the residents of the neighborhood would have chased them out. But today, they turned a blind eye and acted like they didn't see them.
After all, no one was a match for that person staying at Villa 27.
It didn't take long for Luo Lan's men to print the leaflets and start distributing them at the entrance.
This time, the Qing Consortium's people did their work very meticulously. They even took the time to explain the situation to everyone, "Everyone, please look at the photo of the young man I'm distributing right now. You can obviously see he had a pistol holstered on his belt. Now, take a look at the next photo where he met up with someone at a blind spot of the surveillance cameras. In the five seconds it took for him to go from one camera's field of view to the other, an additional black plastic bag appeared in his hand. Now take a look at the third photo. This is the person whom he interacted with at the blind spot."
At the beginning, the residents still had their doubts about whether the people in the photos were really spies.
But when the Qing Consortium's people explained things to them, everyone's doubts were answered. Since those people were spies, they would have to flush them out no matter what!
Someone suddenly shouted, "I've seen this young man before. He lives above my place. I saw him when I got home from work. That boy hardly goes outside."
Someone from the Qing Consortium asked in seriousness, "Really?"
"Of course, I can take you guys there to arrest him right away!" The resident said proudly, "I, Old Liu, don't lie."
"OK, we'll carry out the arrest immediately. However, we'd like for everyone to head inside the neighborhood first. We have to ensure that the information doesn't get leaked in case the suspect tries to escape while we're on our way to arrest him," someone from the Qing Consortium said.
The residents were about to enter the neighborhood in a grandiose manner when the Qing Consortium's troops suddenly raised their arms and escorted them in.
A resident said hesitantly, "I don't think it's a good idea. Our families are still waiting for us at home…."
Although everyone was very eager to help, it still felt a little scary to have their personal freedoms restricted.
Luo Lan stepped forward and explained to everyone, "Don't worry, I swear on the Qing Consortium's reputation that no one's personal safety will be threatened. You guys came to help out of goodwill, but the culprits might take advantage of the crowd and blend in among you. We're doing this because we want to ensure that the culprits are caught."
While the crowd was still hesitating, a young man wearing a black face mask turned around and tried to walk away quietly.
But as soon as he turned around, he saw Ren Xiaosu staring at him with a smile. "Where are you going?"
The young man said in a low voice, "I'm going home."
"I don't think so. You look a little suspicious," Ren Xiaosu said.
In that instant, the young man pulled a dagger out of his sleeve and stabbed it at Ren Xiaosu.
Ren Xiaosu simply pinched the edge of the blade with two fingers and hit him in the stomach with his right knuckles.
It only took a moment for the young man to fall unconscious.
Many of the Luoyang City residents saw this exchange. Ren Xiaosu said sincerely to everyone, "There must be evil people like this hiding among y'all, so please cooperate with us. We definitely won't threaten your personal safety. Instead, we'll protect everyone."
When the residents realized there was truly a spy hiding among them, they agreed not to let them get away like this. "C'mon, let's head into the neighborhood. It just so happens that I've never had a chance to look around the villas of National Treasure Garden!"
Luo Lan smiled at a Qing Consortium soldier next to him and said, "Go and fetch the kitchen crew. We'll prepare some simple meals for everyone at Villa 28."
After making the necessary arrangements, Ren Xiaosu said to Luo Lan, "I'll lead a team to arrest the suspects while y'all prepare a place for the interrogation. We'll question them immediately after bringing them back so they don't have a chance to collude on their statements."
"Don't worry, we already dug out four basement levels under Villas 31 and 32 two years ago. We can put them to good use today," Luo Lan said.
Meanwhile, the residents of Luoyang City continued identifying the other suspects from their leaflets. Once someone made a positive identification, the others around them would even applaud them. All of a sudden, the atmosphere became exceptionally harmonious.
Ren Xiaosu left the neighborhood with the Northwest's intelligence agents who had just arrived and quickly searched for the targets in Luoyang City.
To be honest, Ren Xiaosu was really not giving the spies any chance to escape by personally heading out to arrest them. There was probably no spy in Luoyang City who could defeat him, so resisting arrest was not an option.
And Yang Xiaojin was also involved in this operation. With two supernatural beings working together, it was as good as bullying those spies into submission.
The sting operation went very smoothly right from the start. Some of the suspects did not even know that Ren Xiaosu's group would suddenly come for them, so they made no attempt to escape.
After going in, Ren Xiaosu quickly disarmed the suspect first before Yang Xiaojin took over and broke his limbs in case he tried to commit suicide.
Ren Xiaosu felt that even if the enemy mastermind were a superhuman who had the power to kill people with heartworms, he probably couldn't use them on everyone, right? There would surely be some suspects who were not affected.
Therefore, Yang Xiaojin quickly disabled him and even dislocated his jaw in case he had a suicide pill hidden in his mouth. She did not give the suspect any chance.
Yang Xiaojin was simply too proficient at such things. Just what environment did this girl grow up in and how much professional training had she been through?
The Northwest's intelligence agents behind them shuddered at the sight. Then they looked at Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin and wondered how this couple usually got along at home.
"Someone, come over here," Yang Xiaojin said while holding the suspect's jaws open. "There's something in this person's molar. Pry it out."
The group of Northwest intelligence agents had come here in a hurry without bringing any professional tools with them. However, being a group of ruthless people too, they immediately found a pair of pliers and extracted his molar.
The molar highly resembled a real tooth, so it was very difficult to tell which had been fitted with a suicide pill from the outside. As they didn't want to bother Yang Xiaojin, they decided to just extract all of it.
When the suspect's first molar was extracted from his mouth, the intelligence agents realized that it was a real tooth. One of them muttered "bad luck" under his breath and prepared to continue extracting the next one.
After pulling out two real teeth in a row, the helpless spy on the ground hurt so much he broke into a cold sweat. He could only mumble with his dislocated jaw, "Rai sai, rai sai, ye yas mojah ong deh yower yawrrr."
The intelligence agent from the Northwest understood he was saying that the suicide pill was fitted in the last molar on his lower right jaw.
He patted the spy's face on the ground.. "You could've saved yourself the trouble if you'd been smarter just now."
