Chapter 158 He decided to continue the investigation
He discovered that Zheng Yaoxian had indeed concealed some key intelligence, and that these concealments were closely related to certain high-ranking figures in the enemy. Su Ming began to realize that Zheng Yaoxian might be involved in some more complex conspiracy.
"What is Master hiding?" Su Ming kept asking himself. He knew that when faced with such a question, he had to be cautious and avoid making overly radical judgments.
Final conversation with Zheng Yaoxian
After a long investigation, he realized that only honesty and frankness could solve the problem.
"Master, I've investigated some recent events," Su Ming said during a private meeting. "I've discovered that you've been concealing some key intelligence. Please tell me the truth behind this."
Zheng Yaoxian's expression grew solemn. He took a deep breath, seemingly considering his response. After some contemplation, he finally spoke, "Su Ming, you must understand that in the world of espionage, sometimes we have to make difficult choices. Not all information is suitable for public disclosure. Some matters are of grave importance, and we must weigh various factors."
Inner choice
After hearing Zheng Yaoxian's words, Su Ming felt a complicated feeling in his heart. He realized that in the world of espionage, things are not as simple as they seem. He must make a choice between facing the truth and protecting himself.
He was full of contradictions. On the one hand, he was uneasy about Zheng Yaoxian's concealment, but on the other hand, he also understood that in the complex spy environment, many things might need to be handled in different ways. He decided to continue the investigation and carefully handle his relationship with Zheng Yaoxian.
New challenges in action
As Su Ming gained a deeper understanding of the enemy's situation, he began to face new challenges. Not only had the enemy laid traps within his intelligence system, they were also launching increasingly targeted attacks against him. Every action he took was fraught with unknown risks, and every step could become a target for enemy counterattacks.
Su Ming was more cautious during this period, constantly adjusting his strategy and working closely with trusted colleagues. He knew that in the face of enemy attacks, only through precise planning and careful execution could the mission be successful.
On this mission, Su Ming not only has to navigate various enemy traps but also his complex relationship with Zheng Yaoxian. His heart is filled with contradictions and conflicts, but he remains calm and strives to complete the mission. He knows that in the world of espionage, the truth is often hidden in layers of fog, and only then can the true answer be found.
During a routine intelligence exchange, Su Ming was ordered to contact a crucial intelligence source. However, upon arriving at the designated location, he discovered the source had been intercepted by the enemy. The scene was a mess and several cold, icy corpses. His heart sank, realizing the enemy had already discovered his mission.
Just as he was about to evacuate, a figure appeared in the shadows. This person was tall, with a stern face, and his eyes gleamed with a calmness and sharpness similar to Su Ming's. The two stared at each other for a moment, and Su Ming immediately realized that this person was no ordinary person.
"Are you Su Ming?" the man spoke in a low voice with a hint of contempt.
Su Ming said nothing and quickly assessed the situation. He knew that the other party had enough information, otherwise they would not be waiting here.
"It seems that the 'arsenic' in the intelligence is nothing more than this." The other party sneered, turned and left, leaving Su Ming with an unfathomable back.
Although no actual conflict occurred during this encounter, the opponent's appearance undoubtedly sounded a warning to Su Ming. This enemy was no ordinary one, and he sensed that he would face a difficult struggle.
There are friends among the enemies:
As the mission progressed, Su Ming encountered this mysterious opponent more and more frequently. The two engaged in a fierce battle across various fields, including intelligence warfare, counter-tracking, and assassination. Strangely, during each encounter, Su Ming felt that his opponent didn't seem to want to kill him, and on several occasions, he even deliberately spared him at critical moments.
Su Ming became intensely curious about his opponent's identity. After extensive investigation, he gradually learned that his name was Chu Feng, a high-ranking agent in the enemy's intelligence department. However, Chu Feng's background was complex, and his file revealed a disturbing piece of information: Chu Feng was once a member of the Juntong, even achieving remarkable military exploits during a mission, but then mysteriously disappeared.
As Su Ming's understanding of Chu Feng deepened, his inner conflict intensified. Chu Feng's background and experience were strikingly similar to Su Ming's, which made Su Ming begin to wonder why Chu Feng chose to betray him and what his real purpose was.
Friend and foe:
During one operation, Su Ming was dispatched to assassinate a key enemy political figure. The operation was meticulously planned, leaving virtually no loopholes. However, as he infiltrated the target location, something unexpected happened—Chu Feng reappeared and stopped Su Ming at the last moment.
The two exchanged a brief exchange in the narrow corridor. Amidst the flashes of swords and sabers, Su Ming sensed the sharpness and precision of his opponent's moves. Just when he thought he was doomed, Chu Feng suddenly slowed his attack.
"You shouldn't come here, Su Ming." Chu Feng whispered, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes.
Su Ming was stunned for a moment. The other party's tone actually contained a hint of dissuasion, which made him feel baffled. Just as he was about to fight back, Chu Feng suddenly leaped back and disappeared into the darkness.
This confrontation made Su Ming realize that Chu Feng didn't seem to truly want to kill him. He began to wonder if Chu Feng was a friend or foe. Why would he show mercy at such a crucial moment?
The truth is revealed:
Su Ming continued to pursue Chu Feng. Through various clues, he finally found some clues. These clues pointed to a truth he had never expected: Chu Feng's betrayal was not out of selfish motives, but to carry out a more secret mission - he was acting as a double agent within the enemy.
However, this revelation didn't bring relief to Su Ming; instead, it left him even more confused. What exactly was Chu Feng's mission? Who was the mastermind behind him? Why had Zheng Yaoxian never mentioned this former comrade?
Su Ming decided to confront Chu Feng and find out the truth. In a secret meeting, Su Ming finally met Chu Feng face to face, and neither of them concealed their inner doubts and confusion.
"What exactly do you want?" Su Ming looked directly at Chu Feng, his eyes full of determination.
Chu Feng smiled calmly, a trace of fatigue in his eyes: "All I want is an end. An end to the spy war."
