At this moment, Hu Fei swung open the passenger door of the Chevrolet and plunked himself down.
"What are you doing here?" Ling Chen looked at him with suspicion.
Hu Fei chuckled: "I feel safer with you."
"Get lost!" Ling Chen cursed with a smile: "You’re not a woman. Why are you looking for a sense of security here? Old Tang, let’s hit the road."
Tang Yuan nodded, picked up the walkie-talkie, and began coordinating with the vehicles ahead.
Five Chevrolet SUVs entered the road, gradually picking up speed. Through the window, Ling Chen saw that nearly every intersection they passed had police officers. The intersections would only resume normal traffic flow after their convoy had passed.
Soon, the convoy maintained a speed of 120 miles per hour toward the airport.
A speed of 120 miles per hour was the standard for mission execution; this way, they could immediately detect if anyone was following them.
"Don’t worry, God Organization’s people won’t make a move in the urban area," Mr. Yun, seated in the center, spoke up.
Ling Chen glanced at him and said indifferently, "For your life’s sake, you’d better pray that we reach the airport without trouble."
"We can’t hide forever. God Organization’s people will find us sooner or later. It’s up to you guys to handle them," Mr. Yun said, then looked up at the sunroof as if searching for something.
Seeing his actions, Ling Chen and Tang Yuan exchanged glances and both looked up to the sky.
"There!" Suddenly, Hu Fei sitting in the passenger seat pointed to the right side of the convoy and said, "See that? There’s a drone over there."
Tang Yun immediately understood, handing over a pair of binoculars to Ling Chen. Ling Chen raised the binoculars to look into the distant sky. Indeed! A quadcopter drone hovered in the air, its camera aimed directly at the convoy’s position, following their slow movement.
"Old Tang, pass the word along, tell everyone to be on alert."
After putting away the binoculars, Ling Chen turned and asked, "Mr. Yun, you’ve been with God Organization for so long, you must be very clear about their operations. What do you think they will do?"
"Methods? Hmph! God Organization always resorts to any means necessary. As long as it serves their goal, they would do anything. You better just look out for yourselves."
"Tang Yuan, three minutes before we leave the city and enter the airport expressway."
Ling Chen nodded, his eyes flashed a faint light as he looked ahead at the approaching tunnel.
After passing through nearly a hundred-meter-long tunnel, the five Chevrolet SUVs finally entered the airport expressway at a sudden increase to 150 miles per hour.
At this moment, through the hovering drone’s camera, the live feed was transmitted into a mobile communications vehicle.
Watching the screens that appeared on her computer, a statuesque, seductively dressed beauty tapped lightly on the keyboard, laughing softly, "Target has entered the airport expressway, reaching the interception point in five minutes." After speaking, the long-legged beauty lazily stretched and with a flirtatious look turned to the silent man behind her, her voice dripping with charm, "Captain, can I take a few days off after this mission?"
"Let’s talk after the mission," the man stared unwaveringly at the screen and suddenly ordered: "Rewind the footage to twenty seconds ago."
"Captain, is there a problem?" the long-legged beauty asked, while rewinding the footage.
The man watched the convoy entering the tunnel, silently counting numbers. When the convoy emerged from the other end, a barely perceptible cold smile appeared on his face.
"Bring up the blueprints of the tunnel."
As the tunnel’s structure diagram appeared on-screen, the man stood up and said, "Inform the people at the interception point to withdraw a squad and head to the tunnel to meet me immediately."
The long-legged beauty asked in confusion, "Why?"
The man earnestly explained, "They’ve been maintaining a speed of 120 miles per hour, but the tunnel is less than a hundred meters long. I just calculated; they only needed about twenty-three or twenty-four seconds to pass through, but they took a few seconds longer. There’s definitely a problem. Besides, you’ve seen the tunnel’s structure diagram. From there, one can go through the sewer and directly reach the subway. I suspect they’re planning to split their forces and divert our attention."
After a pause, the man continued, "Of course, these are just my guesses, which can’t be completely certain. In any case, we can’t let our guard down. That Ling Chen is not simple. Whatever happens, we must complete the task given from above. The traitor must die!"
Meanwhile, in the gloomy sewer, Ling Chen carefully led Mr. Yun forward. The foul stench in the sewer caused both of them to cover their noses.
"Ling Chen, do you think we can fool them this way?"
"I’m not them; how would I know?" Ling Chen turned back to look at Mr. Yun and asked: "I’ve always been curious, with your status and position, why would you betray God Organization? There are only two of us here, you might as well tell me."
Mr. Yun replied indifferently: "God Organization does not allow personal agendas. Everything must be for the core goals of the organization."
"Do you have a personal agenda? Are you trying to usurp the throne and take control of God Organization?"
Mr. Yun shook his head: "I don’t have such big ambitions. Everything I’ve done has been purely for myself and for Wanqing. Ling Chen, what you’ve been targeting is the power I’ve amassed in secret, not God Organization. Twenty years ago, I joined God Organization and after ten years, I became the manager of God Organization in Asia. Officially, I’m a senior member of God Organization, but actually, among all the seniors, my position is the lowest."
"God Organization’s focus has always been overseas, and it wasn’t until I took over Asia that God Organization’s influence began to slowly penetrate here. However, with decades of establishment overseas, their roots are deep and far beyond comparison to Asia. A region’s strength dictates the control and influence one has in God Organization. As the weakest branch of God Organization, my position naturally wouldn’t be very high. Of course, this also has to do with my own actions. Over the years, I’ve been secretly building my force and hid a lot from God Organization, which is why I’ve never been promoted."
Ling Chen frowned and asked, "You don’t want to work for God Organization, so what do you want to do?"
"I told you already, it’s for myself and Wanqing. I joined God Organization to use their resources to expand my influence. Moreover, only by infiltrating their ranks can I conveniently conduct my investigations."
