Chapter 58: Learning of the Plan, Preparing to Go to Country M

The train swayed for two days and two nights before slowly pulling into Shanghai Station. Jiang Zhiyu followed the flow of people off the train, inwardly complaining—the old green trains of this era were truly slow, their inefficiency was frustrating. If she weren't worried about arousing Commander Li's suspicion, she would have already taken out the helicopter from her spatial storage. That was one of the few pieces of equipment she had left behind in the apocalypse, and it was more than ten times faster than this train.

After exiting the station, she headed straight for the military district. Just as she reached the entrance of the office building, she brushed past a young woman in military uniform. The woman stared at her retreating figure, grinding her teeth in hatred—it was Lin Weiwei.

"I told you that this bitch is just restless!" Lin Weiwei clenched her fists, her nails digging deep into her palms. "She's already gone to the countryside, and she still dares to hook up with Song Yanzhou!" She originally thought that Jiang Zhiyu had gone to the Northeast, so she could take advantage of the situation. She never expected that Song Yanzhou would report his relationship as soon as he came back from the Northeast.

What angered her even more was that after Song Yanzhou returned from his mission in Hong Kong, he was promoted two ranks ahead of schedule, and his future seemed limitless. In the entire city of Shanghai, only she was worthy of him. Jiang Zhiyu was just a wild girl whose identity was unknown, and now she had been sent to the countryside to become a peasant. She was even less worthy of Song Yanzhou.

"Dad warned me not to mess with him, saying he has powerful connections... If he doesn't dare mess with Song Yanzhou, then he doesn't dare teach this bitch a lesson." Lin Weiwei stomped her foot, a glint of malice flashing in her eyes. She had to think of a way to make that bitch leave him on her own!

Jiang Zhiyu, oblivious to the commotion behind her, walked straight into Commander Li's office.

Upon seeing her arrive, Commander Li immediately ordered the guards at the door, "Guard the door, no one is allowed to enter." He then invited Jiang Zhiyu to sit down. He took a document from his drawer and handed it to her, saying, "Take a look at this first; it contains the core information of Song Yanzhou's mission this time."

Jiang Zhiyu took the documents and carefully read them word by word.

It turns out that Professor Sun Weizhou and his student Zhang Muzhi, who were studying in Country M, unexpectedly obtained a set of core data crucial to the development of physics and aerospace during their experiments. Professor Sun secretly contacted the embassy, ​​hoping to bring the data back to China, and also hoped to bring his family and student back with him. Song Yanzhou's mission this time was to protect the two professors and their families and ensure their safe return to China, and to ensure the data was completely safe.

"This mission is extremely difficult," Commander Li explained from the side. "Professor Sun is a key target of surveillance by the United States. Although he and Professor Zhang do not have access to core secrets, they are exceptionally talented. It is indeed quite difficult to bring them out from under the nose of the United States."

Jiang Zhiyu continued reading—When Song Yanzhou and his team first arrived in Country M, everything went smoothly. They made contact with the embassy liaison and Professor Sun. However, on the eve of their planned operation, the two professors suddenly lost contact. Song Yanzhou led his team to investigate, but they too subsequently disappeared without a trace. The embassy and intelligence personnel searched for a long time without finding any clues, and were forced to request assistance from their home country.

Commander Li knew that the country had special units staffed with people possessing extraordinary abilities, but these people were indeed difficult to recruit due to their immense workload. She had a vague feeling that this girl also possessed such special abilities, which was why she asked for her help.

"I understand." Jiang Zhiyu closed the document.

Seeing this, Commander Li took out another document from the drawer: "This is the identity prepared for you—an accompanying translator for the Shanghai Machinery Factory. They are going to the US soon to discuss a machinery import deal. If you go with them, it won't easily arouse suspicion."

Jiang Zhiyu glanced at it and shook her head: "This identity is not suitable."

"How so?"

"First, following a large group would make us too conspicuous. The US side has definitely been keeping an eye on groups coming from the mainland for a while now. We'd be watched as soon as we landed, which would be detrimental to the operation." She analyzed clearly. "Second, following a group means following orders, which would restrict my actions and make it inconvenient for me to act alone."

Commander Li raised an eyebrow: "So what are your thoughts?"

"I went there using my Gangcheng identity," Jiang Zhiyu said. "I have legal documents from Gangcheng, and traveling alone makes me a smaller target and less likely to be monitored. Letting the machinery factory's team proceed as planned will draw their attention and provide cover for me."

Commander Li's eyes lit up, and he slammed his hand on the table: "Great idea! You've thought of everything." He quickly took out a stack of documents. "These are the contact information and addresses of the embassy liaison officers and intelligence personnel. Keep them safe."

Jiang Zhiyu took it, stuffed it into her backpack without looking at it closely, and said, "Time is of the essence, I'm going to Hong Kong right now. Please give me a dedicated office phone number so I can contact you anytime."

Commander Li wrote down a number and handed it to her, then added, "Girl, be careful on the road. To be honest, getting you involved like this makes me very..."

"Uncle, don't worry." Jiang Zhiyu smiled, no longer calling him "Commander Li," and her tone was less formal and more intimate. "I know what I'm doing."

Commander Li patted her on the shoulder: "Go ahead, I believe in you."

Jiang Zhiyu turned and left. Just as she stepped out of the military district gate, she saw Lin Weiwei leading several young women in military uniforms, storming towards the office building—clearly there to cause her trouble. Unfortunately, they were too late and could only stomp their feet at Commander Li's empty office.

Seeing the commotion outside, Commander Li shook his head helplessly in his office: "That girl from Political Commissar Lin's family needs to be properly disciplined. Does she really think she's someone to be trifled with?" He picked up the phone, intending to have a serious talk with Political Commissar Lin.

Jiang Zhiyu had already left the military region, and it was getting dark. As she walked, she chatted with 0047 in her mind.

"0047, your name is too long, it's awkward to say," she said. "How about we use a homonym? 47, 47... how about we call you Seventeen from now on?"

[Great! Seventeen sounds nice!] The system jumped up and down excitedly. [Host, from now on I'll be called Seventeen!]

"Hmm," Jiang Zhiyu replied. "Seventeen, are there any secluded spots nearby where I can park a helicopter?"

Seventeen scanned the area. [Host, I haven't found any particularly hidden places within my range. How about we teleport to the suburbs first and then search slowly?]

Jiang Zhiyu nodded: "Okay."

She found a secluded corner, and Seventeen immediately activated teleportation. The next second, Jiang Zhiyu appeared in a wasteland on the outskirts of the city. Seventeen activated the scan again: [Host, there's an abandoned military factory 15 kilometers to the east. The roof should be big enough to park a helicopter.]

The two teleported to the abandoned factory. Jiang Zhiyu took out some food from her spatial storage to fill her stomach. Thinking that her parents should be asleep by now, she found a comfortable spot in her spatial storage to lie down and rest.

Going to Country M is too far; teleporting Seventeen is simply unrealistic. Even a helicopter flight would take over thirty hours, requiring her to be well-rested. Fortunately, her helicopter was modified during the apocalypse, replacing the fuel tank with a miniature nuclear fusion reactor, providing unlimited energy and eliminating the need for refueling.

Before going to sleep, she took out a world map from her spatial storage, carefully studied the route to San Francisco, mentally reviewed the possible air currents and radar zones to avoid, and made a detailed plan before finally falling into a deep sleep.

As the night wind blew through the ruins of the abandoned factory, Jiang Zhiyu drifted off to sleep, thinking about the rescue plan.
