Chapter 587: The Problem Laid With Your Commands!
It indeed was unexpected for the secret base to be located in such a place.
The alley’s width was just wide enough for a car to pass through, so when Lie Feng directly drove his vehicle in, it didn’t attract anyone’s attention.
Which of those roadside stall patrons would have imagined that in such an inconspicuous alley a national secret base would be hidden in there?
Merely the thought of this got one excited.
Gu Qingjiu and the rest got off next to the yard. The same man she saw previously was guarding outside.
With a cigarette hanging between his jaws, he was playing with his phone.
At the sight of Lie Feng, he raised his eyes. “You’re back?’
Lie Feng nodded at him. “With the newbie joining us this time, the mission was accomplished pretty well.”
“Yo.”
The man looked towards Gu Qingjiu and revealed a grin. “Seems like Lu Ziyang found himself a treasure.”
Gu Qingjiu merely pursed her lips and smiled, appearing especially calm.
As though she wasn’t the one being praised.
“Alright, we need to head in to report the outcome of the mission.”
Lie Feng led the way in, while Zong Wenxuan edged closer to the man guarding the entrance with a beam. “Uncle Xia, if you’re free, can you go out and help us barbecue two sticks of pig’s kidney? I don’t know what time it would be by the time we are done reporting the mission. I’ve been famished the entire night.”
“Do you want me to slice off your kidney and barbecue it?”
That man called Uncle Xia leisurely spat out white smoke. “You’re asking me to go and barbecue for you? Are you mad? Quickly get inside!”
In spite of that, Zong Wenxuan wasn’t mad and simply entered with that beam still on his face.
Zong Wenjia, too, led Gu Qingjiu into the house.
It was that same mechanism as last time. Every time Gu Qingjiu saw it, she felt that her horizons had expanded each time.
She had only been here once, but she seemed very sensitive towards the layout here.
This corridor didn’t look much different from the ones you saw in science fiction movies, but Gu Qingjiu felt that she was already quite familiar with the layout and route.
Just like the last time, they came to a conference room.
Most normal people would have fallen asleep at this hour, but many people in the secret base had yet to rest.
Lu Ziyang was staying up late working.
He felt like a secretary type of character who was there to pass on a message from the Boss at any moment.
When they entered, Lu Ziyang looked up at them. “Thanks for the hard work, guys.”
His smile was mild and refreshing.
Lie Feng didn’t buy that. “Dispense with all that. We nearly failed to accomplish the mission today.”
He turned his head, and Zong Wenjia handed the USB flash drive to Lu Ziyang. “We only found this at Yun Qiyue’s home. I don’t know if it’s useful, but it’s encrypted. I didn’t get to decrypt it yet.”
Lu Ziyang merely cast a glance at the item in his hands. He didn’t look nonchalant, but he didn’t seem to care all that much either. Very quickly, he shifted his gaze onto Gu Qingjiu. “I heard our newbie performed quite well?”
“Not bad indeed.” Lie Feng praised Gu Qingjiu’s performance using one line.
And then, he recounted the happenings during the mission.
Lu Ziyang instantly let out a ‘wow.’ He spread out both hands and looked towards Zong Wenxuan. “I feel that concerning this point, you ought to learn from our newbie.”
Zong Wenxuan was incredibly innocent. “How can you pin the entire blame on me? You were the one who gave commands during my first mission. I didn’t even blame you for slipping up in your commands!”
Lu Ziyang was speechless.
He closed his eyes as though he was trying his darndest to tolerate.
Next to them, Zong Wenjia and Lie Feng burst out into laughter.
