Chapter 58: Secret War! Flying Library Web

  "Excuse me for asking, but how many of you have come to undertake this important task of protecting the 'giant panda'?" Night Yang Jian asked carefully after listening to Zhou Yong's words and thinking about it for a moment.

  "Hmm... speaking of which, there are only the two of us now. According to the intelligence from the undercover agent in Bird Island Country, after their previous spy operation failed, Bird Island Country was furious and quickly dispatched a team consisting of spies and assassins to infiltrate the mainland. This time, the orders were clear: find and directly kill these two children. The documents will be destroyed on the spot. They're afraid of alerting the enemy, so they don't dare to deploy a large number of personnel, which is also for their safety." Zhou Yong said sincerely.

  "Haha, Zhou special agent, forgive me for speaking bluntly, this is a matter of great importance, I think you fundamentally do not have the ability to protect them well." Ye Yangjian said without evasion, what a joke? The little girl special agent who was easily taken down by themselves, can they really protect Jiao Yu and Zhan Hao, these two precious treasures?

  "Night Yang Jian! I... humph! ..." Ouyang Bing's face turned even redder with anger at Night Yang Jian, although she knew he was telling the truth.

  "Alright, alright. Since that's the case, I'll give you a suggestion. The child is safe with me for now. However, I hope you can quickly request more personnel to be sent over?" Night Yang Jian didn't bother with Ouyang Bing's dissatisfaction, as this matter was too important and he didn't have time to care about a little girl's emotional discontent.

  "This is very difficult, it's not that the National Security Bureau can't send anyone, but it's possible that they have already been infiltrated. Our last action coincided with the people of Bird Island, so I and Ouyang suspect that there are insiders from Bird Island in the upper levels. Now we also find it hard to..." Zhou Yong lit a cigarette on the table. He also needed to relax a bit.

  "What the...?! Did I just hear that right?! Unbelievable! You're the country's most important unit, and you can be infiltrated this easily? This is ridiculous! And yet you still have the nerve to call yourselves the National Security Bureau?" Upon hearing Zhou Yong's words, Ye Yangjian immediately felt like cursing.

  "Ah! You don't know, there are many spies like this. Most of them are Chinese themselves, even their parents are Chinese, they grew up in the country from a young age, and later with excellent grades were selected to work in key national departments. But actually, they were all pawns planted by Bird Island Country many years ago. We can't do anything about it either. This kind of thing is unavoidable for any country, we also have similar agents in Bird Island Country, numbering tens of thousands." Zhou Yong explained in detail. The more peaceful the era, the more brutal the war is.

  "Tens of thousands?! Oh my, so many people! All together, it's like an entire army! What about the spies from Bird Island Country within our own country? Why aren't you investigating?……" Ye Yang Jian was shocked, he hadn't expected that his own country had sent out such a large number of spies to infiltrate Bird Island Country.

  "Alas, it's not that we don't want to investigate, but the difficulty is just too great. You used to be a soldier, so you probably haven't had much contact with this sort of thing. In reality, these special agents appear normal on the surface, just like regular people, with ordinary jobs and lives, or struggling to make ends meet. They might be doctors, white-collar workers, laid-off factory workers, or anyone around you... even your comrades! When they're not on a mission, their role is that of friend, colleague, or family member. To be honest, I think sometimes they can't even tell which one is their real self anymore. But these people always have dual identities, and as soon as they receive a task, they'll immediately spring into action. Because they've blended in with society, their local accent might be more authentic than yours, and since they have normal jobs, they're completely self-sufficient - you can't even find any clues from their bank accounts. It's not that easy to investigate..." Zhou Yong explained to Ye Yang Jian in detail.

  "Alright, alright, stop this nonsense. I used to be a soldier and I don't want to get involved in these spy games. I'm a straightforward person, you need to come up with a safe plan now, otherwise I won't let the two kids go with you, got it? What's with all this secret agent nonsense?! Dammit! If anything happens to my brother or sister, I'll find someone to settle the score with!..." Night Yang Jian waved his hand to stop Zhou Yong from continuing.

  "Big Brother Ye! Xiao Yu and I aren't going back with them." Zhan Hao and Qiao Yu suddenly ran to the back of Ye Yang's fitness room and said in a low voice. The sound wasn't loud, but everyone present heard it...

  Ye Yang Jian turned his head to look at the two kids behind him, thinking about how they had spent the past week together, eating meals, setting up stalls, and causing trouble at San Shu's big restaurant. Thinking of their miserable fate as orphans, he suddenly thought of the guitarist... thinking that they were so dependent on him, this older brother. After a moment of contemplation, his fraternal feelings completely burst forth...

  "I'll let you take the things, but I'll keep the person here for now. What's going on? Can you give me a straight answer?" Night Yang Jian patted the shoulders of the two children behind him and said to Zhou Yong, his mind already made up...

  "No way! What makes you think I can trust you to protect them? What qualifications do you have to say such things, this isn't a joke, this is a first-class mission of the National Security Bureau..." Ouyang Bing immediately refused, she had been fooled by Ye Yangjian all night and besides, he had also scratched her beautiful neck.

  "What about the Security Bureau? You ask me what I rely on? I rely on these!" Yang Jian let out a low roar, pulling off his T-shirt. On his robust body, there were several bullet wounds and shrapnel scars. The numerous big and small cuts and stab wounds added up to an unknown number. These scars crisscrossed each other, complementing the wolf head tattoo on his left arm, making him look even more ferocious and terrifying...

  "Ah!..." Ou Yang Bing was startled by these scars all over his body. Even Zhou Yong, who had seen Ye Xing's file, couldn't help but turn serious, he knew what kind of battle could leave such marks.

  "You are secret agents, dealing with all sorts of secretive work, things I don't understand! I used to be a soldier! These scars on my body, weren't they left from battles defending our motherland? I've killed more people from Bird Island than you can imagine! Not that I'm showing off, but I just want to say that although we're in different lines of work, I also swore to defend my country, whether the threat comes from within or outside! Yes, I'm retired now, but this involves my brother and sister's safety, and it also affects national interests. I have no reason to stand idly by. Moreover, apart from my comrades-in-arms, I've never had the habit of entrusting my fate to others." Ye Yang Jian stared at Ou Yang Bing, who was somewhat dazed, and said loudly.

  "But we..." Ouyang Bing suddenly found herself at a loss for words. She had always taken pride in her identity as a national security agent and firmly believed that she was the Republic's most steadfast defender. But today, her confidence had been slapped in the face by this iron-like young veteran. Her own pride and arrogance now seemed so pale and powerless in the face of Ye Yangjian's gruesome scars.

  "Uh, Ouyang, I think it's fine this way. Our mission is to ensure the safety of these two children, and arranging support first is also right..." Zhou Yong said, pulling Ouyang Bing, and nodding at Ye Yangjian.

  "I'm counting on you then, Yasuaki Yozora!" said Shūsuke Shūshin with a serious expression.

  "I was a soldier! As long as the motherland needs me! As long as the motherland is calling! I am still willing to die generously." Ye Yang Jian stood up from the sofa and said magnificently. At this moment, he was listening to the call of his inner heart, that loyalty to the motherland.

  Zhou Yong reluctantly nodded, and under current circumstances, he had no choice but to leave the child with Ye Yangjian for now.

  "So we'll arrange for support and personnel right away, the safety of these two children will be temporarily left to you, is there anything else that needs our help?" Zhou Yong said this, but actually it was just a courtesy. He secretly decided to let Ouyang Bing stay behind to assist, and also to keep an eye on Ye Yangjian, while he himself would go back to think of ways to send people over to take the children away.

  "Ah! Since you asked me, I have a request." Yè Yáng Jiàn said thoughtfully.

  "Oh, you say that, as long as I can provide help, I'll do my best. After all, we still need your participation and cooperation in this task." Zhou Yong nodded his head, thinking that Ye Yangjian was going to ask for money. People who were forced to retire from the army didn't have any retirement benefits to receive. From what he saw of Ye Yangjian's daily street vending activities, it seemed that his life wasn't very affluent at present, and on top of that, he still had to take care of two children.

  "...Leave your gun behind. And the clip and all the bullets." Yèyáng Jiàn immediately struck the snake with his stick.

  "What? I didn't hear that wrong, did I? You want my gun? How can this be?" Zhou Yongyi heard and hastily waved his hand in refusal.

  "Damn it! You're not giving me a gun, what if Bird Island's assassination squad shows up? What am I supposed to use to protect them with this? I'm not some 'Little Li Flying Dagger'!..." Ye Yangjian drew out his tactical knife and waved it around.

  "But you don't have a gun license! If the public security organs find out, that's it for you. You still have to report to the police station every week. If you're caught with an illegal gun again, your life is over. No way, no way, I won't let you get in trouble..." Zhou Yong argued desperately.

  "Bullshit! Son of a bitch, I was on a mission with the troops, and that time we didn't even bring a few guns, let alone show our gun permits! If it's like that, then should the RPG rocket launchers carried by tanks also have 'egg certificates'?!...” Night Yang Jian splashed his skin, he had already seen Zhou Yong's 92-style 5.8mm handgun, damn! That was only equipped for company commanders and above, with a magazine capacity of 20 rounds…

  "Tanks? What does this have to do with tanks? The weapons on a tank are all mounted..." Zhou Yong felt his head getting a bit dizzy. How did they end up talking about tanks again?

  "Damn it! I'm not talking about main battle tanks, it's one of my comrades. His mom, just this request, will you grant it or not? Give me a straight answer!"

  "What am I supposed to do with this gun you gave me?"

  "You're still afraid that someone will rob you halfway? You're not as handsome as me, no one would want to kidnap you for your looks, what are you afraid of?"

  "But I've given you the gun, it's hard for me to go back and explain!"

  "Damn it! I said your country's special agents have only this much power? Are you kidding me? How pretentious! Not even as good as our department head!"

  "But we have discipline, guns never leave our side..."

  "I guarantee that the gun will never leave my side, I guarantee that I'll carry it with me every day, don't worry, this thing, I'm more familiar with it than you are."

  "What I mean is..."

  "You're going to make me angry! I'm now working for the country, damn it! Even the No. 1 leader wouldn't send unarmed soldiers into battle..."
