Chapter 777 Escape
In order to avoid being seen by passers-by, Zhou Tian could only use his spiritual sense to block the senses of people around him. He stepped on the roof and in a blink of an eye he arrived at an attic next to the courtyard.
Looking down, I saw five people in the courtyard still discussing something. Each of them had a different expression and looked quite embarrassed.
As his spiritual sense enveloped the entire courtyard, the conversation of the five people in the courtyard appeared clearly in his ears.
"Third brother, does the superior really want us to do this? You know, I have finally gained the other party's trust with great difficulty. If there is any mistake, then this time we may really be caught in one fell swoop!
"Yes, we have been undercover in the organization for these years, and we have finally achieved some results. But just because of a sentence from above, we are exposed. It is really too much for the higher-ups to appreciate our efforts over the years!"
Two of them drank the wine glasses in their hands and said with some resentment.
You have to know that over the years, as spies from the organization on the other side of the strait, they have always been living in fear. God knows how much effort they have put in to avoid being exposed. But they did not expect that in the end, the higher-ups would ask them to take action just because of one person. Isn't this a joke?
Especially in recent years, as the domestic situation has stabilized, they have even thought about withdrawing. If it weren't for the connections above, they might have preferred to continue living in such a stable way.
Unfortunately, the other party had the leverage over them, so they could only come upon invitation.
"Yes, Boss. We have had wives and children over the years. Now we are being forced to reveal our identities just for one person. Isn't this pushing us to death?"
Listening to the complaints of his brothers one by one, the middle-aged boss couldn't help but pick up the wine glass and take a sip.
"Do I want to? We have been lurking for more than ten years. Not to mention you, I also have a wife and children, but what can we do? Don't forget that they still have evidence against us. If we don't do this, have you ever thought about it? If they really use that evidence against us, we will still be doomed!"
As he spoke, his tone could not help but pause slightly, and he continued: "But it is also said above that this operation is our last one. As long as we can successfully complete this operation, we will become completely free people in the future!"
"Boss, I don't believe it. We have passed on a lot of information over the years, and they always say it's the last time. But have they ever been able to fulfill their promise?"
Among them, a middle-aged man wearing a Zhongshan suit and a pair of glasses, who was close to the boss, couldn't help but said excitedly.
"What can you do?"
When the boss heard what the other party said, he turned around and looked at him. He watched him for a long time without saying anything, just drinking in silence, and then he said: "Whether the other party is deceiving us or not, now that things have come to this, we can only believe it!"
"By the way, Third Brother, you don't need to participate in this operation!"
As he spoke, he turned his gaze to one of the young men who looked very young.
"Boss, why?"
The young man asked in confusion. Although he really didn't want to get involved in this matter, he was very confused by what the boss said.
"You are the last hope for the five of us brothers. You have finally managed to get into the Security Bureau. If we are caught, you can still help us take care of our family in the future!"
The boss said sincerely, "Besides, you are different from us. We are all workers, and you are the only cadre. This is the last way out for us to leave for our family!"
After hearing what the boss said, the other three nodded in unison to show their agreement. The reason why they hesitated about the reason given by their superiors was actually for their families. Now that the boss had thought of a way out for them, they naturally would not disagree.
Since it is unavoidable, we must prepare for the worst.
"Boss, I..."
Just as the young man was about to speak, he was stopped by the other three people standing beside him: "Old Five, what the boss said is also what we think. We can't withdraw. You are our last hope. How about this, Old Five, you leave now and go back quickly. Cut off contact with us completely, so that if anything happens to us in the future, you won't be implicated!"
"Yes, Lao Wu, hurry up and leave. Now is not the time for us brothers to talk about brotherhood. You can't show any signs of being exposed!"
"Big brother, second brother, third brother, fourth brother, I......"
The young man wanted to say something else, but at this moment, there was a slight vibration sound outside the door, as if someone had knocked on their door with a stone.
The third brother's face changed instantly, and he stood up quickly: "Oh no, boss, let's go quickly, we've been exposed!"
Having said that, he immediately led the four people to his bedroom without hesitation. When he arrived at the bedroom, he immediately pushed open the bed in the bedroom, and saw a hole covered with wooden boards on the ground under the bed.
They walked forward and picked up the wooden board, and a dark hole instantly appeared in front of the five people.
"Old Five, you go first, quickly. This leads to a cave cellar in another house of mine. If anything happens to us, the four brothers' families will all depend on you!"
As he said that, he walked up to the young man, patted him on the shoulder, and let him go first. Then the four of them went into the cave separately!
At this moment, with a "bang", the courtyard gate was broken open from the outside, and a group of fully armed soldiers rushed in.
"Go in and search!"
The middle-aged man leading the team looked at the leftovers in the yard, his expression changed slightly, and he gave an order.
"Yes, Chief!"
A group of soldiers behind him immediately rushed into the house. After a while, one of them reported: "Report to the commander, a hole was found in the house! They should have escaped!"
Then another soldier ran out and reported: "Commander, we found the enemy's radio in the basement of the woodshed, as well as thirty small yellow croakers, ten thousand yuan, and a notebook!"
"Looking at the temperature of the food here, the enemy must not have gotten far. Immediately send someone to chase him along the cave. Also, if he dares to resist, shoot him on the spot!"
"Yes, Chief!"
The soldier responded and led a dozen soldiers into the cave in the bedroom and chased after the men.
"Everyone else, search the surrounding courtyards immediately. I don't believe they can escape to the sky!"
"Yes, Chief!"
Upon hearing the leader's order, the other soldiers turned around, left the yard, and dispersed in other directions!
"Old Chang, where is the chief?"
Not until everyone had left did he look at Chang Wen and ask, you know, the leader cannot have any accidents. If something happens, not to mention Chang Wen, even he cannot bear the responsibility!
