Eunuch, do you really know these martial arts?

Now that things have come to this, what's the point of saying anything more?

Chen Hao regretted countless times that he hadn't tried to get Jiang Nian and the others away from the beginning. He couldn't kill military personnel, especially not just one—this was a special forces team, the elite of the elite, whom he couldn't afford to offend, but he could have let them go.

“What’s that saying again? Oh right, I remember now— ‘One wrong step can lead to eternal regret, and by the time you turn back, a hundred years have passed.’ Captain Chen, your good days are truly over.”

The handcuffs, gleaming with a cold, silver light, bound Chen Hao's hands.

Chen Hao may have used this thing to handcuff many people, but he never thought that he himself would one day wear these "silver bracelets".

After taking Chen Hao back to the criminal investigation team, Jiang Nian and his team no longer needed to get involved in the rest.

When Wang Dahu saw Chen Hao, who was already handcuffed, his face was full of resentment.

He never expected that the most deeply hidden undercover agent would be Chen Hao.

But the facts are undeniable, leaving no room for doubt.

After returning to his residence, Jiang Nian reported the results of the mission to Fan Tianlei.

"Toolbox, now that the undercover agent has been captured, you need to cooperate with Wang Dahu's team in the follow-up operations. We have received all the information you sent back. Drug lord Wang Ba was unexpectedly well hidden. Your mission is ostensibly to dismantle the drug lord organization. But regarding the arms situation, do not alert them yet. Their next arms deal with Japan is about to take place. At that time, be sure to seize the opportunity, seize the arms, and then arrest the perpetrators..."

The undercover operation can be temporarily concluded.

But the mission is not yet complete.

Wang Ba's drug cartel is no longer as simple as it seems on the surface. After much discussion, Fan Tianlei and his team decided not to alert them for now, but to play the long game and catch bigger fish.

Jiang Nian had no objection to this.

Since we're doing one task anyway, or two, we might as well complete them both at once.

With the captain of the anti-drug squad already in prison and Wei Zixuan seriously injured during his confrontation with Chen Hao, the anti-drug squad is temporarily under the command of Wang Dahu, who is fully responsible for all actions against Wang Ba's organization.

After a good night's sleep, Jiang Nian felt refreshed and invigorated.

After stretching, he vaguely felt that he had forgotten something. He gently tapped his head with his fingers—what could it be? Unable to recall, Jiang Nian finally decided to put it aside for the time being.

Anyway, it probably wasn't anything important, otherwise he would have remembered it well.

It must be said that Wang Dahu's execution ability is extraordinary. In just one day, he has taken over the entire anti-drug squad.

"Comrade Jiang Nian, I have finally waited for this day to avenge Wu Ming. Let's go! Today we will step into this forest and completely wipe out the drug lord organization that has been entrenched here for so long, restoring peace to this place!"

Wang Dahu spoke these words to Jiang Nian with a broad smile, his joy almost impossible to conceal.

Seeing Wang Dahu's appearance, Jiang Nian subconsciously frowned slightly.

It seems that Wang Dahu is getting a little too excited.

With Wang Dahu's order, the criminal investigation team and the anti-drug team began to advance into the forest in an orderly manner.

The bombs had been cleared by Jiang Nian. In addition, when they evacuated earlier, Wang Yanbing and his men had thrown a lot of bombs at the organization's stronghold without hesitation. Although they did not completely destroy the entire base, they were not far off.

Therefore, those people had no time to come back and replant the bomb.

As a precaution, the personnel entering the forest were divided into three groups, each proceeding cautiously.

One group was from the Criminal Investigation Brigade, another from the Narcotics Enforcement Brigade, and then Jiang Nian and his group.

Jiang Nian and his team consisted of only five people, so they each went their own way; while the Criminal Investigation Brigade and the Narcotics Enforcement Brigade each sent out two people to form a small group to advance simultaneously.

When the operation began, Jiang Nian was supposed to set off with the third group. But for some reason, he had an inexplicable feeling and ultimately chose to be the first to enter the forest.

Jiang Nian's vision and hearing have been systematically enhanced, making him the number one in all abilities among special forces soldiers of the same level.

Not long after entering the forest, Jiang Nian's expression changed drastically, and he almost subconsciously made a hand gesture.

The criminal investigation team and the anti-drug team were both taken aback when they saw Jiang Nian's gesture.

"Comrade Jiang Nian, why do we need to stop?"

The person who asked the question was a member of the anti-drug squad.

In this operation, the anti-drug squad was under the command of the criminal investigation squad, so the anti-drug squad members unknowingly became more desperate in all aspects of their work.

Jiang Nian said with a cold face.

"What?" Everyone was stunned when they heard Jiang Nian's words, and someone blurted out subconsciously.

You should know that they had received information that when Jiang Nian and his team rescued Wu Ming, they had already defused all the bombs here.

How could someone have replanted bombs here in such a short time?

The military's special forces have never failed in their missions.

"Toolbox, what's going on?" came the question from others through the headset. Not only were the people from the anti-drug squad and the criminal investigation squad puzzled, but even He Chenguang and his team were equally confused.

After all, they all believed in Jiang Nian's abilities, and such a mistake was absolutely impossible.

"The bomb was only planted here yesterday. Our operation has been exposed."

With a sullen face, Jiang Nian's tone was very unpleasant.

Besides Chen Hao, there are other undercover agents.

It was at this moment that Jiang Nian finally realized what he had overlooked.

The system gave Jiang Nian a task: to find the undercover agent.

However, after Jiang Nian exposed Chen Hao as the undercover agent, the system did not give a notification that the mission was completed.

Jiang Nian had forgotten about this matter before, and he wouldn't have remembered it if this accident hadn't happened.

However, it seems that the mission has already exceeded its time limit?

The system remained silent. Had I already been forcibly punished?
He looked at his hands and carefully recalled the information in his mind—they were still there, which meant he had not yet been punished by the system.

"System, can you say hi?"

Jiang Nian called out to the system in his mind; he was a little confused at the moment.

"Dear host, this system is always here."

The system's cold voice rang out. For some reason, Jiang Nian detected a hint of disdain in the system's words.

Good grief, this lousy system actually dares to look down on me?
"Host, this system does not despise you. Due to a minor error in this mission, the mission timeline has been extended to one month as compensation. As long as you find the mole within one month, the mission will be considered complete. And regardless of whether the mission is completed or not, there will be no punishment this time."

The system continued speaking in a mechanical voice, but uttered words that almost made Jiang Nian vomit blood.

"I'm saying, if you changed the mission, you should at least have told me, the host, right? If I hadn't thought of asking you now, were you really going to wait a month to remind me?"

Struggling to suppress the urge to punch someone, Jiang Nian repeatedly reminded himself: This system is his, and there's no other way to deal with it except to pamper it.

However, the feeling of helplessness and dejection in his heart left Jiang Nian speechless.

This damn system is getting more and more unreliable; it doesn't even give us a heads-up. What if the mission fails? We'll be in big trouble!
They didn't even have a chance to resist?
"Dear host, this system will remind you when there is one week left in the mission."

The system says it has no feelings whatsoever, but it will still do what it's supposed to do.

Jiang Nian truly experienced the feeling of having a mouthful of blood stuck in his throat this time. "Regarding this mission to find the undercover agent, can you tell me exactly how many undercover agents there are?"

Now that things have come to this point, if the enemy is truly prepared, then what Jiang Nian and his group will face will likely be more complicated than they anticipated.

Jiang Nian and his group are definitely safe enough to protect themselves, but it's hard to say about the others.

This mission must be completed with minimal losses, no matter what.

"Toolbox, so what's next?"

The anti-drug squad and the criminal investigation squad all turned their attention to Jiang Nian.

At this moment, Jiang Nian had become their backbone. Since he was the first to spot the bomb's location and was confident in defusing it, the subsequent operation naturally fell to him.

As those who are at the forefront, even if they are mentally prepared to sacrifice themselves, it would be best to avoid sacrifice if possible.

Now that the operation has begun, there's no turning back. But knowingly charging into a dangerous trap is clearly not a wise move.

"Stop for three minutes."

In any case, ensuring the safety of ourselves and the others is the most important thing.

Jiang Nian made a gesture, and the others immediately stopped and found places to hide. Jiang Nian then cautiously probed forward alone.

Soon, Jiang Nian saw the planted bomb.

Beside the newly set trap, there was freshly dug soil. Squatting down, Jiang Nian picked up a bit of soil, rubbed it, and sneered.

It was indeed a trap set just yesterday.

The bomb in the pit made Jiang Nian's face look even more grim than usual.

Fortunately, he came along this time; otherwise, relying solely on the criminal investigation team and the anti-drug team, we might have been completely wiped out.

The bomb's yield is enough to cause an explosion within a 500-meter radius.

Jiang Nian and his vanguard had only gone a little over 200 meters. If they stepped on this bomb, wouldn't they be wiped out?
In particular, people walked right up to the bomb and no one noticed.

Jiang Nian's mood turned heavy.

After defusing the bomb, Jiang Nian returned to where the others were.

"I believe you all know that there is a mole in the team. The enemy has already laid a trap for us in this forest, but we can only move forward now, not backward. I don't know which one of you is the mole, so from now on, all operations will be under my command. Hand over all your communicators."

Jiang Nian addressed the four members of the anti-drug squad and the criminal investigation squad in an extremely serious tone.

He toyed with the bomb in one hand, tossing it up and catching it repeatedly, repeating this somewhat tedious action.

The other four people watched as Jiang Nian disarmed the bomb, and now he was casually waving it in front of them, making them all uneasy.

Even though they knew the bomb was safe in Jiang Nian's hands, it still looked extremely dangerous. Their hearts pounded with every bounce of the bomb; it was pure torture.

"We'll listen to you."

After hearing Jiang Nian's words, the other four looked rather grim. They exchanged glances, seemingly reaching some kind of consensus, before handing their communicators to Jiang Nian.

To be honest, if Jiang Nian hadn't been a member of the military, these people would never have handed over the communicator so easily. Each of them had their own reasons.

However, it was precisely because the bomb in Jiang Nian's hand was so threatening that they chose to compromise for their own safety.

"Here is the toolbox. I will detonate the bomb in three minutes to lure the mole out. Keep an eye on the people around you and see if you can find the undercover agent."

Jiang Nian issued the order.

Since Jiang Nian and his group were the first to act, and Jiang Nian was the first to discover the bomb, the others hadn't reached the area yet and naturally didn't know what was happening to them.

At the critical moment, Jiang Nian immediately stopped the others from passing on messages. Unexpectedly, no one realized that even after one mole had been caught, there were other moles within the team.

Ultimately, it was a mistake this time.

The undercover agent must be identified and eliminated before entering the forest, otherwise the operation will most likely fail.

After weighing the options, Jiang Nian was unwilling to give up the operation, so all he could do was lure the mole out and find the undercover agent first.

"Roger that!"

He Chenguang and his team received Jiang Nian's orders immediately.

When Jiang Nian discovered there was another undercover agent, he had already informed He Chenguang and the others.

They have absolute trust in each other, and there are no problems whatsoever.

At this moment, Jiang Nian's decision is the best choice under the current circumstances.

Although Jiang Nian spoke into the communicator, the four people standing in front of him naturally heard him as well.

They looked visibly puzzled by Jiang Nian's decision.

After all, if the bomb is detonated, not only will the undercover agents in the team know, but the sound of the explosion will also notify the enemy hiding deep in the forest.

Jiang Nian did not explain, despite the puzzled looks on their faces.

"Two minutes, everyone take cover."

Jiang Nian gave the order in a cold tone.

The four of them immediately sprang into action.

Centered on Jiang Nian, the four of them concealed themselves, and within exactly two minutes, no more, no less.

After confirming that the four people were well hidden, Jiang Nian suddenly smiled broadly.

He's a master at handling bombs. He already modified it while defusing the bomb.

After securing the bomb to the trunk of a large tree, Jiang Nian quickly retreated.

Standing ten meters away from the tree, Jiang began to count down in his mind.

Less than three seconds later, a loud "BOOM!" suddenly exploded.

Oh no, I forgot to cover my ears.

The ringing in his ears from the explosion lasted for a while before Jiang Nian heard He Chenguang's anxious voice coming through his earpiece.

"Damn, toolbox! That made such a commotion, are you hurt?"

Even though they knew Jiang Nian was playing with bombs like toys, the loud noise and commotion made He Chenguang immediately ask what was wrong. However, Jiang Nian didn't respond because of tinnitus, which worried them greatly. They were afraid that Jiang Nian had gone too far and gotten himself into trouble, which would be terrible.

“It’s alright. Tell the others that our group of five accidentally stepped on a bomb and are all injured, unable to continue the mission. This forest has been bombed. See who still insists on continuing the mission and keep a close eye on them.”

Jiang Nian calmly gave the instructions.

At this time, the more commotion there is, the calmer you need to be.

The first team members are already injured.

This forest was riddled with bombs. Wang Ba and his drug lord gang used these bombs to occupy this forest as their stronghold and lair. Only Jiang Nian and his group were able to infiltrate their hideout for the first time and rescue Wu Ming. (End of Chapter)
