Courtyard House: Initial Donation of 50 Million

Spies from various factions were becoming increasingly active around Wang Huanbo. Although they hadn't succeeded yet, the potential threat was growing daily. The security department and Director Li Weiguo were under immense pressure. Wang Huanbo knew that simply defending wasn't the solution; he had to take the initiative and eliminate these lurking vipers to achieve true peace. A plan to "use a counter-strategy to lure the snakes out of their holes" was taking shape in his mind.

He chose what seemed to be the weakest link, but was actually the easiest to control—the remaining Japanese spies. Based on scattered clues provided by the security department and the findings of Director Li Weiguo's investigation, a group of Japanese agents seemed particularly interested in the special alloy steel smelting process of the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill, and were likely plotting to steal technical data or sabotage the smelting equipment.

Wang Huanbo decided to use this as bait. He deliberately and "casually" revealed at an internal meeting of the factory's technical department that a key technical summary report on a "new high-strength automotive steel sheet heat treatment process" had just been completed and was temporarily stored in a secure cabinet in the factory's technical archives, and would be submitted to the ministry soon. This news was leaked through some "accidental" channel.

Sure enough, the fish took the bait! The lurking Japanese special agents, sensing the opportunity, decided to take a risk and steal this "valuable" technical data.

Before the operation, Wang Huanbo, along with Director Li Weiguo and the factory's security chief, meticulously planned the operation. They deliberately created small "defense loopholes" around the archives room, such as adjusting patrol intervals and having a security officer who couldn't keep a secret "inadvertently" reveal the shift change code, giving the Japanese spies the illusion that they could take advantage of the situation. Meanwhile, they laid a tight net inside the archives room, on the surrounding rooftops, and in hidden corners, with elite police officers from the local station and key members of the factory's security department all lying in wait!

On a dark and windy night, perfect for committing a crime. At two in the morning, three shadowy figures, like ghosts, scaled the factory wall. Using a route they had known beforehand, they evaded patrols and silently made their way to the technical archives building. The leader, with agile movements, was clearly professionally trained. They skillfully pried open a window with tools, sneaked inside, and headed straight for their target: the secure vault!

Just as they were trying to open the cabinet door with special tools, one of them pulled out a miniature camera to take a picture!

"Don't move! Hands up!"

"Bang!" (A warning shot is fired)

In an instant, the bright beams of flashlights illuminated the three men, leaving them nowhere to hide! Police officers and security personnel who had been lying in ambush poured out from all directions, their dark gun barrels pointed at them!

The Japanese agents were terrified and attempted to put up a last-ditch resistance! The lead agent raised his hand to fire!

"Whoosh—smack!"

A soft whooshing sound followed by the thud of a pistol hitting the ground! The agent's wrist was struck by a steel ball that seemed to have come from nowhere (fired by Wang Huanbo with a slingshot, enhanced by the super serum, making it incredibly accurate), causing excruciating pain!

Other police officers rushed forward and quickly subdued the three! The whole process was swift and efficient, taking less than three minutes!

A search of them yielded a complete set of espionage tools, including listening devices, miniature cameras, master keys, and explosives. Under intense interrogation, the three confessed to being instructed by a foreign Japanese special agent organization to steal core military technologies, and revealed their hideout in Beijing and their contact methods.

Following the leads, security forces launched a nighttime operation, successfully dismantling this long-standing Japanese spy network, arresting several accomplices, and seizing a large quantity of espionage equipment and operating funds. This was a heavy blow to enemy intelligence forces!

The news sent shockwaves through all sides! Anna, an officer in the KGB, was secretly alarmed upon hearing the news, realizing the power of China's security services and the impenetrable defenses surrounding Wang Huanbo. She temporarily halted her operations and went into deeper hiding. Taiwan's intelligence agencies were also taken aback, reassessing the risks and temporarily suspending their direct sabotage plans against Wang Huanbo.

Wang Huanbo used a brilliant "counter-espionage" tactic to temporarily avert imminent danger. Following this incident, the higher authorities raised Wang Huanbo's security measures to the highest level, not only strengthening overt protection but also assigning additional plainclothes bodyguards for covert protection. The technical confidentiality system and security measures at the Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill were also comprehensively upgraded.

Wang Huanbo's life seemed to have returned to normal, but he knew the struggle was far from over. He focused even more on technological research and development, putting the improvement of the EA111 engine and the preliminary research on automatic transmissions on the agenda. At the same time, he began to organize the rudimentary data on integrated circuits and computer technology in the system space, thinking about how to sow the initial seeds for the coming electronic age. He was like a far-sighted chess player, dealing with the immediate crisis while his gaze was already set on a more distant future. And those enemies hiding in the shadows, licking their wounds in the shadow of defeat, waited for the next opportunity.
