Morning light streamed through the glass, casting diamond-shaped patches of light on the corner booths.

Looking at the rising steam from the hot coffee in front of him, and at the concerned and solemn gazes of Mu Xueke and Chang Le across from him, Chen Geng took a deep breath and began to recount his thrilling experiences over the past dozen hours.

"He took me to an old pumping station by the river, that place..." Chen Geng's voice was low, his eyes drifting away as he recalled the past.

After the motorboat docked on the dark riverbank, Carlos forced Chen Geng to wade into the abandoned pumping station.

The pumping station was filled with a strong smell of rust and mildew, with only a few dim moonlight filtering through a broken window high up.

Two simple sleeping bags were laid out in the corner, along with some canned food and bottled water, indicating that the area had been prepared in advance.

Carlos shoved Chen Geng into the corner, then leaned wearily against the other side, tearing open his combat uniform, which was grazed by bullets and faded by the river water, revealing the rolled-up flesh underneath.

Without uttering a sound, he took out a first-aid kit from his backpack, roughly rinsed the wound with disinfectant, and then gritted his teeth and stitched it up himself with a needle and thread.

His movements were practiced, but the cold sweat on his forehead and his slightly trembling fingers betrayed the immense pain he was enduring.

Chen Geng leaned against the cold brick wall, watching this scene with a chill in his heart.

This man is not only a ruthless mercenary, but also a tough guy who can endure excruciating pain and is ruthless even to himself.

The pungent smell of blood mixed with the odor of disinfectant in the air made the already oppressive atmosphere even more suffocating.

After treating his wounds, Carlos swallowed a few antibiotics and painkillers, but his wolf-like, wary eyes kept glancing at Chen Geng, filled with scrutiny and lingering murderous intent.

With his back against the cold brick wall, Chen Geng could clearly feel Carlos's icy gaze.

He knew that his words had only temporarily calmed the other party down, and had not yet gained their trust.

Every minute and every second could end with a single thought from the other person.

Time passed in a tense atmosphere. Just as Carlos finally finished bandaging the wound and seemed ready to interrogate again—

The familiar azure blue interface appeared in Chen Geng's mind, but the cold text conveyed a burning passion.

【Today's Intelligence List (3/3)】

[Intelligence 1: The main force of the "Green Hell Legion," consisting of 8 members led by Vice-Commander "Viper," will infiltrate Shenzhen in batches on Monday under different identities. Four members will be disguised as members of a "cultural heritage inspection team" from a Southeast Asian country, three will be using forged European business visas, and one will be entering as a student. Their entry time, flight details, and forged identity information are as follows: ... Additionally, two infiltrators belonging to the organization were hired two weeks ago as technical specialists by the "Emmas" Group's inspection team and are currently operating with the team.]

[Intelligence 2: "Greyhound" (Zhang Qiang), the designated contact for the "Green Hell Legion" in Shenzhen, died in a shootout at the docks last night. "Scarface Liu" (Liu Zhenhan), the head of the smuggling ring to which he belonged, is aware of his subordinate's predicament and the situation at the docks, and is planning to destroy evidence, transfer assets, and flee. His hideout address is...]

[Intelligence 3: At the board meeting of "Hanfeng Group" on Monday morning, Mu Xueke will officially announce her appointment as president. However, immediately afterward, a group of directors jointly proposed a "motion of no confidence" against Ms. Mu Xueke, intending to interfere with her smooth inauguration. The main initiator was Lu Shiming, and the co-initiators were Director Sun Liwei (in charge of auditing) and Director Qian Jianguo (in charge of infrastructure).]

Each of the three pieces of intelligence was of paramount importance.

First, the Viper is here! An eight-person team!

Moreover, two of them have already infiltrated the Aimas expedition team!

This confirms that Carlos and his group had grand ambitions and meticulous plans.

Chen Geng instantly felt immense pressure; he had to inform the person who could stop it as soon as possible.

The second point is that the contact person is dead, and the smuggling boss behind him is about to flee.

This explains why Carlos couldn't contact anyone, and it also gives the police an opportunity to take down this scourge and potentially cut off one of Carlos's supply lines.

But the key is to be fast!

Thirdly, will Mu Xueke face challenges as soon as she takes office tomorrow?

As expected, Lu Shiming stepped forward and even brought two directors with him.

Chen Geng frowned deeply, and almost without hesitation, immediately issued an order in his mind regarding the third piece of intelligence: "Provide analysis and guidance for the third piece of information!"

[Analysis instructions confirmed. Guidance provided regarding Intelligence 3 (Hanfeng Board of Directors no-confidence motion):]

[1. The core of the motion: Lu Shiming, together with Sun Liwei and Qian Jianguo, will propose to postpone the appointment or set a probationary period on the grounds that "the new president lacks local experience, has a gap with the group's culture, and is involved in an unexplained criminal case (referring to the public opinion that may be triggered by the dock incident) on the eve of his appointment, which will affect the group's image."]

2. Sun Liwei's weakness: His son, Sun Hao, was involved in gambling while studying abroad and incurred huge debts to local gangs.

3. Qian Jianguo's weakness: While in charge of a group's infrastructure project in another region, he concealed a major safety accident that resulted in two deaths and one injury. He used his power to suppress those in charge. The location of key witnesses and the original accident report is unknown...

[4. Recommendation: Providing relevant incriminating evidence to Mu Xueke or someone she absolutely trusts through clandestine channels at an opportune time would be sufficient to create a fatal deterrent against Sun and Qian, dismantling their alliance. Lu Shiming would be powerless alone, and the motion would naturally fail. However, care must be taken in the method to avoid backfiring.]

"Great!" Chen Geng's heart leaped with excitement!

With these leverages, Mu Xueke is well-prepared to deal with any challenges tomorrow.

At that moment, Carlos's hoarse voice broke the silence: "Can you contact the people behind Greyhound and get what we need?"

His eyes were like hooks, as if he wanted to drill into Chen Geng's mind to see if it was true or false.

Chen Geng composed himself, nodded, and gave an affirmative answer.

Without hesitation, Carlos tossed him a USB drive: "There are 500 cryptocurrencies and a 'goods' list on this. Can you get it done within 24 hours?"

"These things... especially communication equipment, I can only say I'll do my best, but I can at least handle most of them!"

As he spoke, he observed Carlos's expression, then casually added in a low voice, "The 'Viper' captain and the others will arrive tomorrow, right? What if their equipment isn't complete by then..."

Carlos's pupils contracted slightly, his fingers gripping the dagger tightened abruptly, and his aura instantly became more dangerous: "You know the exact time?" His tone was full of scrutiny and killing intent.

"I overheard a bit when my boss contacted your boss," Chen Geng said, feigning nervousness. "Now there are problems with the equipment and the contact point, and I'm afraid it will mess things up for you..."

This statement clearly struck a nerve with Carlos's anxieties.

He paused for a few seconds, his breathing slightly calmer: "Just do your job. I'll handle things with 'Viper.' Get the goods here before sunset... Don't try anything funny."

"I understand, I'll take care of it at dawn." Chen Geng carefully put away the USB drive.

Carlos fell silent and closed his eyes as if asleep, but Chen Geng could sense that the invisible lock had never left.

As the agony deepened, the sky began to lighten.

Carlos opened his eyes, indicating that he could leave.
