the other side.

The assistant's car had already been unloaded from the cargo box.

But there were already three other people in his car.

One person sat in the passenger seat.

The two sat in the back row.

In the passenger seat was a middle-aged man.

It was the same mysterious person who was talking to the assistant.

His tone was calm, yet carried an undeniable air of authority.

Listen—

"We are here to save you, and also to protect you."

"I think your brain hasn't quite processed this yet—"

"What exactly is going on?"

The assistant looked at him, completely bewildered.

He nodded slightly.

"Keep driving forward."

"That's what the middle-aged man said."

There's a large freight yard up ahead.

"Let me show you clearly first—"

"Has your car really been tampered with?"

The assistant took a deep breath.

Start the car.

It slowly drove into the freight yard.

After driving slowly for about twenty laps—

He slammed on the brakes!

Stomp to the bottom!

No response!

Another stomp!

Still no response!

The assistant broke out in a cold sweat instantly!

The brakes really failed!

The middle-aged man sneered.

Reach out and grip the steering wheel.

Strike sharply to the right!

To the right, there's a mound of earth!

"Bang--!"

The car was stopped.

"Get off the bus."

The middle-aged man said calmly.

"I'll take you to the scene of the incident."

The assistant was already a little unsteady on his feet.

He followed the three men into another car.

We arrived at the location where Duan Hao jumped out of the car.

Duan Hao was already waiting for them here.

After getting off the bus.

The middle-aged man, pulling his assistant along, arrived at the edge of the cliff.

"Do you see the car at the bottom of the cliff?"

The assistant looked down.

Deep in the cliff, the wreckage of a car is still burning.

The firelight was particularly dazzling in the night.

"If we don't stop you—"

The middle-aged man's voice was as cold as ice.

"You and your car are just like the cars below."

The assistant's legs went weak!

He collapsed to the ground!

I'm shaking all over!

The middle-aged man took out a tablet computer.

Click to open a video.

Hand it to the assistant.

The assistant, his hands trembling, took the tablet.

Watch the video content.

The video has been edited.

It was the moment Duan Hao jumped out of the car, and the car hurtled towards the cliff.

He saw the car in the video, and its license plate number—

It's exactly the same as mine.

Then he saw—

Shortly after the car plunged off the cliff.

The two Audis were parked here.

The five people who came down observed for more than ten seconds.

They even used binoculars to observe it carefully.

The assistant isn't stupid.

He already knows—

Everything the mysterious person said on the phone was true.

But deep down, he always had an answer.

An answer he dared not even consider.

The middle-aged man gently patted his shoulder.

"The top-secret information your boss gave you—"

"It should be on you, right?"

"Open it and take a look."

"I believe you will get the answer."

The assistant's hands trembled violently.

He took the sealed document bag out of the inside pocket of his coat.

Tear open the seal.

Extract the files from inside.

Then--

His pupils suddenly contracted!

His face turned deathly pale instantly!

That's not a top-secret document at all!

But -

Blank A4 paper!

Each and every one of them was blank!

"Bang--!!!"

The assistant slammed his fist into the ground!

"Why—!!"

Why?!

"I've sacrificed so much for you!"

"I'll serve you faithfully!"

"But you've come to kill me!!!"

He threw those blank papers hard on the ground!

His eyes were bloodshot!

His teeth were grinding together!

This was a flawless trap set by the strategist and Wu Jun.

He arranged for his assistant to die in a car accident.

He even had assassins personally follow behind him.

They only left after confirming that the car had fallen off the cliff.

It leaves no room for any fault.

The strategist had planned out every single detail.

But there was one thing he hadn't expected—

All of his conversations with Wu Jun were being monitored by the device.

Xiaoya analyzed it very clearly.

Duan Hao stepped forward.

Looking at his assistant slumped on the ground.

"alright."

His voice was calm.

"You are now a 'dead person'."

"Come with us."

"There's still a lot more you want to hear and see in our area."

"Your boss's crimes—"

"Whether you confess or not is fine with me."

"Because of his crimes, he should have been beheaded long ago."

"It's just that the time isn't right yet."

The assistant looked up.

His eyes gradually cleared.

"Who...are you people?"

The middle-aged man smiled slightly.

"we are--"

"The Ministry of State Security."

The assistant's body jolted violently!

"You are now under arrest."

The middle-aged man continued.

"You know Zeng Linglong, right?"

"He's the one who sent us to protect you."

"He's the one who sent us to arrest you."

The assistant's eyes flickered violently.

"Since he arranged it this way—"

The middle-aged man's voice carried a deep meaning.

"This proves you are not guilty of a capital offense."

"You know his methods."

"So you should say what you need to say quickly."

"If he and his men were to interrogate you—"

He chuckled.

"Even if you don't die, you'll be badly injured."

"And they'll definitely spill everything like beans."

"Let's see if you'll resist to the very end for your wicked boss—"

Is it still worth it?

The assistant's teeth were almost bitten off!

A ruthless glint flashed in his eyes!

"Can I see Zeng Linglong?"

His voice was hoarse but firm.

"I have some very important information—"

"You should talk to him in person."

"The detailed account of how he was switched eighteen years ago—"

"With the truth."

"What?!?"

The middle-aged man was instantly shocked!

Eyes wide open!

My breathing became rapid!

Several years ago, Li Weiguo had asked him to investigate the switcheroo.

He knew about this matter—

For Li Weiguo, for Old Master Zeng, for Zeng Linglong—

For the entire Zeng family—

What does it represent?

"Walk--!"

The middle-aged man suddenly waved his hand!

"Get in the car quickly!"

The group quickly got into the car!

The car sped away!

In the car.

The middle-aged man took out his phone.

I dialed Li Weiguo's number.

"Minister, we've made a major discovery!"

His voice was excited and hurried.

"Wu Jun's assistant wants to see Zeng Linglong!"

He said—

"He knows the truth about the baby swap eighteen years ago!"

On the other end of the phone.

There was a three-second silence.

Then--

"I'll contact Zeng Linglong immediately!"

Li Weiguo's voice was also filled with barely suppressed excitement!

"You, bring them to the Ninth Division!"

"Protect him!"

"yes!"

Base operations room.

Zeng Linglong remained standing by the window.

Behind him, the people who had been playing cards had already dispersed.

Ye Feng also returned to the barracks dormitory.

Only Xiaoya was still sitting in front of the computer.

My phone suddenly vibrated.

Zeng Linglong looked down.

Li Weiguo.

He answered the call.

"Uncle Li, about this..."

"Little Dragon!"

Li Weiguo's voice interrupted him.

"We've rescued Wu Jun's assistant!"

He wants to see you!

He said—

"He knew about eighteen years ago—"

"You've been switched—"

"the truth."

The phone almost slipped from Zeng Linglong's hand.

His pupils contracted violently!

Breathing has stopped!

Eighteen years.

Eighteen years.

The mystery that had always shrouded his life.

The truth that caused him to lose his biological parents for eighteen years.

finally--

Is it about to surface?

"Where is he?"

Zeng Linglong's voice was deep and hoarse.

"I'll be right there."

"Security Department, Ninth Division".

Li Weiguo said.

"I'm waiting for you."

hang up the phone.

Zeng Linglong stood there.

Not moving at all.

a long time.

Xiaoya walked over.

Look at him.

"Boss?"

Zeng Linglong took a deep breath.

Turn around.

Look out the window.

I looked out into the deep night.

"Xiaoya."

His voice was eerily calm.

I'm going out for a bit.

"Keep an eye on things at the base."

Xiaoya nodded.

"Yes, boss."

Zeng Linglong picked up his coat.

He strode out of the operations room.

Behind him, Xiaoya watched his retreating figure.

His eyes were full of worry.

She knew—

The eldest brother has to face the challenges of his life—

The biggest mystery.

That is also the greatest pain.

Part 9.

The assistant was handcuffed to the interrogation chair.

But his gaze was empty.

He is waiting.

Waiting for that person to come.

A military off-road vehicle sped towards them.

stop.

The car door opened.

Zeng Linglong got out of the car.

He stood in the night.

Looking at that door.

His eyes were deep and unfathomable.

Eighteen years.

Finally, we're about to get the answer.

He took a deep breath.

March forward with great strides.

They walked towards the nine gates.

Behind me, the night was as dark as ink.

And the truth—

Finally, the truth is about to be revealed.
