I put you in charge of those rebellious female soldiers, how come they all became top special forces

Zhao Yuanshan fell completely silent.

Looking at Chen Zheng's expressionless face, he felt quite unsettled.

Within just over ten minutes, the man in front of her had figured everything out clearly and completely.

This kind of logical reasoning ability is something I can only dream of.

Zhao Yuanshan took a deep breath and said, "I'll investigate Lu Chuan's matter."

"Keep the cyber traps you've set up in place, don't remove them. We need to take a two-pronged approach."

Chen Zheng nodded slightly.

This is the first time that the counter-espionage task force and this Mulan chief instructor have reached an absolute consensus on the tactical level.

Three in the morning, in the corridor.

After the meeting, An Ran stayed close to Chen Zheng.

The two walked along the empty corridor for a while.

An Ran suddenly quickened her pace by half a step and spoke.

"The guy we caught tonight ran away very fast."

Chen Zheng looked ahead and casually hummed in agreement.

An Ran slightly raised her chin, her tone filled with undisguised pride.

"But I'm faster."

Chen Zheng turned his head and looked at her carefully.

On Anran's profile were several tiny red marks from tree branches, but she paid no attention to them and looked very proud.

Chen Zheng couldn't help but smile slightly, then looked away and continued walking forward.

"Hmm, not bad."

An Ran suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Then, she quickly caught up with Chen Zheng's pace, and her lips curved into a high smile even from an angle that Chen Zheng couldn't see.

At the corner at the end of the corridor.

Keyboard, carrying a computer, had just come out of the computer room when he saw the backs of the two people walking one after the other in the distance, and he decisively shrank back.

She looked down and opened her phone, her fingers flying across the screen as she sent a message to Li Yue, who was resting in her dorm.

Keyboard: Sister Anran caught a spy tonight.

Li Yue: I know, I was there.

Keyboard: The instructor said she was "good".

Li Yue: And then?

Keyboard: Sister Anran is done showing off now.

Li Yue: ...That's it?

Keyboard: That's enough for her.

……

As dawn broke, Chen Zheng did not return to the guesthouse.

He came straight out of the conference room and went into the computer room.

The keyboard was dozing off on the table when it heard the door open and suddenly sprang up.

Seeing that it was Chen Zheng, she breathed a sigh of relief: "Instructor, you scared me to death."

Chen Zheng ignored her complaints and put Zhang Qiming's confiscated satellite phone on the table.

"Deep analysis, we'll dig as much as we can out."

He picked up his phone and scrolled through it a couple of times before frowning.

"The communication records were wiped clean; the method was surprisingly professional."

"Can you do it? If not, I'll do it myself."

The keyboard shrugged, connected the phone to the device with a data cable, and started typing on the keyboard.

An hour later, she stopped typing, stared at the three newly restored GPS location data lines on the screen, and took a deep breath.

"Instructor, the shipment is complete."

Chen Zheng walked over and looked down at the screen.

All three coordinates point to the same location.

Jinbiyuan Apartment Building, Building 7.

The keyboard switches to the map interface, overlaying the three coordinate points onto the satellite image.

"The positioning accuracy is limited, so we can only determine that it is a mid-to-high floor, roughly between the 14th and 16th floors."

Chen Zheng patted the keyboard on the shoulder.

"Well done."

Keyboard chuckled, leaned back in his chair, and rubbed his aching wrists.

Chen Zheng picked up the printed location report, turned around, and left the computer room.

Zhao Yuanshan lived in a temporary office set up by the research institute, the door ajar.

Chen Zheng knocked twice, and without waiting for a response, he pushed the door open and went inside.

Zhao Yuanshan was sitting on the edge of his cot tying his shoelaces when he saw Chen Zheng come in and looked up.

"So early?"

Chen Zheng placed the report on the table in front of him.

"Zhang Qiming's satellite phone transmitted data that all pointed to Building 7 of Jinbiyuan, between the 14th and 16th floors."

Zhao Yuanshan picked up the report and read it through, his brows gradually furrowing.

Chen Zheng didn't give him much time to process it before speaking directly.

"It's been more than six hours since Zhang Qiming was arrested last night."

"We can't get in touch with Bailu, so we'll definitely activate the emergency plan."

"Either destroy the equipment and run away, or relocate the entire base."

"I suggest we act immediately and catch them off guard."

Zhao Yuanshan put down the report, leaned back in his chair, and remained silent for a moment.

"Your judgment is reasonable."

"However, counter-espionage operations have a strict approval process."

"Jinbiyuan is a residential apartment building where ordinary residents live. If we suddenly barge in and find nothing there, it could lead to unnecessary disputes..."

Who will take responsibility for this?

Chen Zheng did not argue with him.

It's pointless for a lieutenant colonel to argue with a senior colonel about the approval process.

He just sighed.

"Colonel Zhao, you go through your procedures, I won't stop you."

"However, I suggest that while you are waiting for the approval, you should at least send someone to keep a close watch on all the entrances and exits of Building 7 in Jinbiyuan."

"People can stay inside, but we absolutely cannot let the people inside escape."

Zhao Yuanshan pondered for a moment.

"OK."

"I'll send people over there to set up the perimeter control first."

Chen Zheng nodded and turned to walk out.

As he reached the door, Zhao Yuanshan called out to him.

"Chen Zheng".

"I will expedite the approval process, but do not take any action before the approval is granted."

Chen Zheng simply grunted in response and pulled the door open to leave.

In the corridor, Anran leaned against the wall and waited.

Seeing Chen Zheng come out, she straightened up and followed in his footsteps.

The two walked side by side for more than ten steps before An Ran spoke.

"What did he say?"

"Let's go through the process."

An Ran pursed her lips, clearly not satisfied with the answer.

"When will that be?"

Chen Zheng did not answer the question and continued walking forward.

An Ran followed him for a while, then suddenly lowered her voice and asked a question.

"You're not really planning to wait for his approval, are you?"

Chen Zheng turned his head and glanced at her.

An Ran met his gaze without flinching.

Seeing this, Chen Zheng shook his head and said, "Don't stand guard tonight. Go back and rest, and make sure you're well-rested."

An Ran understood immediately upon hearing this.

Having followed Chen Zheng for so long, she knew all too well how this man did things.

An Ran nodded and didn't ask any more questions.

After taking two steps, she suddenly turned back.

"Then you should get some sleep too. You haven't slept much for two days."

Chen Zheng, holding his thermos, hummed in agreement.

An Ran didn't expect him to agree and turned to leave.

Before anything even happened last night, Chen Zheng was told to go to sleep.

This is the same as making Guo Huaiying eat one less bowl of rice.

It is something that is theoretically feasible, but practically impossible.

At noon, Chen Zheng ate a few bites of rice in the cafeteria and then went back to the laboratory.

The intrigue and power struggles with spies continue, but the synthesis of Blue Dream derivatives cannot be stopped either.

Zhou Jingtang and Fang Zhiyuan were also there, and the three of them discussed around the whiteboard for more than an hour.
