Chapter 93: If you fall behind, you'll be attacked?

Upon hearing this, Liang Yi quickly went over, took the phone, and heard a dignified voice coming from the receiver.

“Liang Yi, the US is keeping a close watch on things. They say their people entered our territory three days ago to conduct research, but suddenly went missing yesterday. They suspect we detained them. You need to immediately take people to investigate. Whether it’s true or not, you must give me a reply within two hours.”

"Liang Yi, this matter concerns both countries, so we must be cautious. Remember, there are no small matters in diplomacy."

"Yes!"

Liang Yi agreed in a deep voice, and after hanging up the phone, his brows furrowed.

"Three days ago? Aside from Wang Weiguo's mother visiting relatives, no outsiders have been coming or going around our camp lately. Are the Americans just making things up to stir up trouble?"

Old Zhang was so angry that he slammed his fist on the table next to him.

China and the United States have never been on good terms, and they have had many conflicts over the years.

For the sake of saving face for both countries, everyone maintained a facade of harmony.

Now that the US is suddenly using this as an excuse, could it be that they're planning to do what they did decades ago...?

"Could it be that the external force Wang Weiguo is colluding with is the United States? Are their people hiding in the shadows, deliberately throwing out this statement to try and throw us into disarray?"

Liang Yi remained silent for a moment, then suddenly remembered the encrypted information in Wang Weiguo's woodpile.

He hadn't had time to decipher those messages yet; perhaps they contained clues.

He immediately said to Lao Zhang, "Take some men and check all suspicious footprints around the camp area in the last three days, focusing on abandoned warehouses and the boundary between mountains and forests. I'll go decipher the information. Anmin, you come back to the office with me."

Even if they suspect that the person they arrested is from the United States, they need to have evidence to support their suspicions.

After all, as mentioned above, there are no small matters when it comes to interpersonal relationships.

The slightest carelessness could trigger a crisis, so they must be very careful.

Back in his office, Liang Yi found the encryption manual and began rapidly calculating on the paper.

An Min brought over a strong cup of tea and looked at one of the sets of numbers, saying, "Could this string of numbers correspond to a date? Look, the first part is the month, and the second part is exactly three days ago."

Liang Yi looked in the direction she was pointing: "These letters, when read backwards, are 'Eagle Cliff'? They met at Eagle Cliff three days ago?"

An Min had attended university and had more knowledge than Liang Yi, but Liang Yi also had a lot of practical experience.

The two of them worked together and quickly cracked the encrypted message.

It turns out that Wang Weiguo was actually hooking up with a person from the United States.

Just then, the officer in charge of the investigation hurriedly reported: "Regimental Commander Liang, we found several pieces of evidence at Eagle Cliff, which bear the markings of the United States, as well as some buried equipment!"

Hearing this, Liang Yi sneered: "As expected, it was them. They're just crying wolf, trying to cover it up with pressure."

He immediately picked up the phone and called his superior.

"Report: We discovered equipment left behind by Country M at Eagle Cliff. Their so-called civilian observers are actually undercover agents, and they are the ones colluding with Wang Weiguo."

There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line, followed by a cold snort: "I knew they were up to no good. Gather your evidence, and I'll get back to them. Tell them that if they want to pull any tricks, they'd better be prepared to face the consequences!"

After hanging up the phone, Liang Yi breathed a sigh of relief. An Min handed him a handkerchief and said softly, "Now we can finally explain things clearly."

Liang Yi grasped her hand, his expression thoughtful: "It won't be that easy. Since the US dared to overturn the table, they must have other tricks up their sleeve. We need to keep a close eye on them and not let them find any opportunity to exploit us."

But given the current situation, Liang Yi felt that the people of the United States would definitely not give up easily.

Could something that happened decades ago really repeat itself?

Liang Yi took a deep breath and told An Min to go home first.

She was pregnant, yet she still followed him around.

"I'm fine, but you're the one who's running around with your injured hand."

Compared to Liang Yi, she's doing quite well; pregnant women need to move around more.

"I know my wife feels sorry for me, but I feel sorry for her too." "Minmin, you go home and rest first. This matter isn't over yet. I have to stay here and keep an eye on things."

Despite Liang Yi's repeated attempts to dissuade her, An Min had no choice but to go home first.

This matter involves two countries, and it's not something that can be easily explained in a short time.

After An Min returned, Liang Yi had lunch at the camp. In the afternoon, he received a call from his superior.

"Liang Yi, the US said they sent people to your area this afternoon. They're taking a very tough stance, so be careful."

Liang Yi gripped the receiver tightly, his Adam's apple bobbing twice: "How many people did they send? Did they explain their purpose?"

"They were called a three-person team, ostensibly to work together to search for missing persons, but in reality they were carrying diplomatic mission credentials."

The superior's voice came through the electrical current, carrying a solemn tone.

"Remember, the bottom line cannot be crossed, but we must be diplomatic in our words. If they dare to cross the line to search, stop them directly according to the camp regulations. I will take responsibility if anything goes wrong."

"clear."

Country M has come with great force this time, and it seems they are not to be trifled with.

But he can't be too weak either; he represents China now, and he can't afford to lose face.

"Notify everyone to be on high alert. Have the militia move the evidence and equipment found at Eagle Cliff to the conference room and pack them in sealed bags."

Liang Yi fastened his belt as he walked out, a blatant threat tucked into his waistband.

"Tell Lao Zhang to take two veterans to guard the entrance to the camp. No unauthorized personnel are allowed to enter."

Seeing the officer's stern attitude, everyone knew that something was amiss.

So after Liang Yi gave his instructions, they all got to work.

At 3:17 p.m., three black SUVs, kicking up dust, stopped at the entrance of the camp.

The blond man at the head of the group was wearing a well-fitting suit with the M country flag badge pinned to his lapel. The identification he handed over was printed with the words "Special Advisor to the Bureau of International Security".

Two men in plainclothes followed behind him, their hands always in their pockets, their eyes scanning the sentry next to the guard post.

"Commander Liang, right? I'm Jason."

The blond man extended his hand, his smile deliberately friendly.

However, half of his silver wristwatch was visible on his wrist.

Special emblems can be faintly seen on the inside of the dial.

Liang Yi raised his hand and gave him a light handshake, then released it. His fingertips touched the calluses on the other man's palm, marks left from years of holding a gun.

“Mr. Jason, according to procedure, I need to verify your documents first.”

He stepped aside to make way, but his gaze swept over the back seat of the SUV.

There was a black hard case there, its lock gleaming coldly.

In the meeting room, the evidence in the sealed bag was conspicuously displayed.

Jason picked one up, looked up and smiled, "These things might have been left behind by our missing personnel. Commander Liang, could you allow us to go to Eagle Cliff and take a look?"

"I'm afraid not."

Liang Yi's resolute attitude made Jason frown.

"Why?"

"There's no reason why, this is the bottom line."
