Bode’s gaze fixed on the departing figures of Luo Fei and Zhang Quan, and he praised, "Erin, you’ve done very well this time. It’s a great merit."
The other three captains were somewhat dissatisfied, both jealous and otherwise.
Fang Jinpeng’s fingertips twirled with several electromagnetic flying blades, implants of metal prosthetics and special electromagnetic components in his hand bones, in addition to undergoing the Flesh and Blood Calamity.
With a body of tremendous quality and special modifications, his entire being exuded a dangerous aura.
He spoke in a slow voice, "Sir, shouldn’t we take down these two?"
"These are just two mice, taking them down is meaningless and would thoroughly alert the enemy.
Since we know their headquarters is underground, there’s no rush... Liu San, Andrew, you two go back and muster the troops, be ready to act at any time.
Erin, you’re responsible for continuing the surveillance, and find a way to disguise someone to enter the sewers to pinpoint the exact entrance to their headquarters."
Erin was not familiar with the sewer situation, and dared not rashly send someone to follow on the inside, fearing they might be discovered, completely alerting the enemy.
So the exact location was still unknown.
But that Zhang Quan and Luo Fei choose to enter the sewer here indicates that the headquarters must not be far from this place.
Bode continued to instruct:
"Fang Jinpeng, you go to the Tasting Commerce Association and ask them for a map of the sewer layout. The entire sewer system of the Ninth Special Zone was built by them, having a map will make it more convenient for us to act.
I need to go to the council to report this matter, as the Apocalypse Society, those lunatics, might have other tricks up their sleeve. I need to obtain permission from the council to mobilize the Military Department and have them cooperate in this operation."
The group nodded and dispersed.
The first thing Luo Fei did after parting with Zhang Quan was to use communication to inform Chen Che.
He needed to hand over the map he held to Chen Che and relay all the intelligence he knew to him.
He didn’t quite understand why he trusted Chen Che so much; perhaps it was because Chen Che had given him a piece of bread, allowing him to break free from the control of the Apocalypse Society.
He could sense that Chen Che was not an ordinary person.
After receiving Luo Fei’s intelligence, Chen Che immediately brought people from the Special Operations Department to Luo Fei’s home to apprehend him.
On the surface, it appeared that way.
At least, that was the impression Erin received when she got the intel.
"Sir, why is the Special Operations Department only coming to arrest him now?"
Erin sneered and said, "Just like us, they want to cast a long line to catch the big fish. But they haven’t caught any fish; the people they sent to secretly follow Luo Fei’s men have all been discovered by our people. I sent some to thwart their steps.
They have lost control over Luo Fei and now rushed in to arrest him because they found this guy had returned home."
Indeed, a part of the Special Operations Department had also followed behind Luo Fei, intentionally being discovered by the security team.
Then, they were naturally obstructed by the security team, and naturally lost track of Luo Fei.
At least, in Erin’s eyes, the entire Special Operations Department was a bunch of famous yet incompetent wretches.
Without that woman An Nishang, the Special Operations Department wasn’t even worthy to play against their security team.
But little did she know, it was all orchestrated by Chen Che.
Otherwise, it was odd that Erin did not suspect anything when she knew Chen Che had encountered Luo Fei, and yet no action was taken by the Special Operations Department to apprehend Luo Fei.
To avoid raising Erin’s suspicions, Chen Che orchestrated this drama to stabilize the situation as the orchestrator.
Looking at it now, it worked quite well.
Meanwhile, the purpose of sending the Special Operations Department to apprehend Luo Fei was simple.
It was simply to protect Luo Fei.
Because with the upcoming events, if Luo Fei were left outside, he could very likely be in danger.
In the eyes of Erin and the others, Luo Fei was already a discarded pawn; from their perspective, their intelligence and actions were already far ahead of the Special Operations Department.
Apprehending Luo Fei now was of minimal consequence to the security team.
Erin didn’t believe someone like the fanatical zealots of the Apocalypse Society would yield any useful information under Chen Che’s interrogation.
By the time they actually extracted information, the yellow flowers would have wilted.
They might have already demolished the entire headquarters of the Apocalypse Society by then.
This is precisely what Chen Che wanted them to think...
As for the Apocalypse Society.
Under this high-pressure environment created by the security team, even holding a meeting required utmost caution.
Their intelligence network had become even weaker.
They wouldn’t know that Luo Fei, who had just become a Scripture Reader, was already captured by the Special Operations Department.
Even if they knew, they probably wouldn’t care too much, since every Scripture Reader was a deeply brainwashed veteran believer.
Luo Fei looked at Chen Che in front of him and asked, "I can give you the intelligence, but you don’t need to arrest me. I can provide you with more information..."
Chen Che shook his head and said, "This is to protect you."
"My life doesn’t matter, as long as you can avenge my wife and child, I don’t care if I die!"
Chen Che glanced at him, too lazy to explain further, and said, "I have my own plan; just follow the steps of my plan. Your role must be utilized to the fullest."
"And you’re not the only one we’ve arrested."
Luo Fei was startled, "Who else have you arrested?"
"Arresting him is useless, and it might alert the enemy! His loyalty to the entire Church is higher than mine; if he has any means to notify the Church, it would be problematic!" Luo Fei immediately said anxiously.
