CHAPTER 162: 116. CHEN CHE’S SCHEMING_3

If we let the explosives detonate in the C21 District, do you really think the Special Operations Department can stay out of it?

Don’t forget, although they are two departments, they both belong to the larger Judicial Bureau.

At that time, if other departments use this to impeach the entire Judicial Bureau, it might weaken the Bureau’s current power. When the leadership sits as Director, wouldn’t it indirectly weaken the leader’s power?

Moreover, there are tens of thousands of people up there! Can you just let them die?

With various chain reactions, it’s possible that the promotion of the current Director, Yan Chong, that old guy, could get delayed again and again, making it extremely difficult for the leader to get promoted to Director.

This is truly a case of pulling one thread and moving the whole body.

"So I intend to flood it, to provoke the entire security team and the full strength of the Apocalypse Society while also preserving the C21 District."

"But... but... isn’t that still wrong? We won’t be able to catch the Apocalypse Society members."

"Who said we can’t catch them? Have you forgotten? I told you, I got a lot of useful information from Zhang Quan.

This guy is indeed a big fish. As the oldest veteran of the Apocalypse Society in the Ninth Special Zone, Zhang Quan’s mind holds many secrets, including those about the unmarked passage on that map.

Since the Apocalypse Society has built such secret bases in the underground pipelines, there is naturally more than just one escape route.

They have an escape route that is not marked on that map.

That passage finally leads to the entire Peru Market."

Chen Che walked to the window of the office, his finger pointing into the distance. Xia Na’s gaze looked into the distance at a dense market.

The market in the slum sells many things.

This is the B13 District of the East City District, and the Peru Market is a safe and bustling trading area.

Many Hunters returning from the barren lands outside the safe zone come to the Peru Market to sell what they have found and buy some essential equipment.

"Are you saying they’ll come out from the Peru Market?"

"Yes, with so many people around and distracting, the daily traffic of the Peru Market is high. Once the Apocalypse Society members crawl out of the Peru Market’s sewers, they can quickly blend into the crowd and vanish without a trace, making it challenging to find this group of rats again.

So I’ve ordered Angduo and Kainan to lead the Special Operations team to monitor the entire Peru Market. Once they find the Apocalypse Society members, they can capture them.

Those who know about this passage belong to the high-level members of the Apocalypse Society.

Zhang Quan could know this piece of information because he is one of the oldest Scripture Readers to join the Apocalypse Society, and he planned the entire passage and construction.

That’s why he could know the information.

So, the members of the Apocalypse Society who can come out of the Peru Market are big fish.

They are not comparable to those small fry.

What can the security team do with such a big commotion over there? They haven’t caught a single big fish in the end, and it’s the Special Operations Department that will get the credit!"

Xia Na’s eyes gradually turned from confusion to excitement.

She had originally thought Chen Che had done nothing, but it turned out Chen Che had finished everything and prepared everything beforehand.

No wonder her sister handed this task to Chen Che; it turns out this guy really had a plan.

But soon, Xia Na noticed something was off and stared at Chen Che dissatisfiedly, "Then why did you hide this from me? Made me worry so much, and why didn’t you inform me in advance if you were just pretending to have a quarrel?"

Chen Che looked Xia Na up and down, clicking his tongue, "With your patience and acting skills, I’m afraid if I told you to act, you wouldn’t be able to perform, and would probably be exposed on the spot."

"Then wouldn’t the whole plan fail? Look, keeping you in the dark and seeing you worried like this was just perfect."

"Completely realistic acting would definitely dispel most of the other party’s suspicion."

Xia Na had reason to suspect Chen Che was messing with her.

This guy is terrible.

But fortunately, everything was going according to plan. Xia Na couldn’t be bothered to argue with him about these things.

Her violet eyes went from anxious to sparkling again, filled with the vitality and excitement only a young girl can have.

Her gaze firmly fixed on the not far away Peru Market.

"Are they coming soon?"

"Not yet, at least about an hour. What’s the rush? Their plan hasn’t even started yet."

Based on the intelligence from Zhang Quan, Chen Che estimated the strength of the Apocalypse Society and the security team.

About an hour, give or take.

If the security team can’t sort things out within that time, then they aren’t qualified to become enemies of the Special Operations Department.

Xia Na suddenly thought of something and asked, "Right, won’t flooding the sewers cause other issues?"

"Of course it will."

"What issues?"

"Probably all the sewer systems above the main pipeline will back up, meaning sewage will surge back up."

Upon hearing this, Xia Na’s eyes widened, "Ew... isn’t that disgusting?"

"Oh, well, being covered in sewage or facing death, which would you choose? Sewerage is better than death."

"I’d rather die..." Xia Na muttered, pouting.

Chen Che couldn’t be bothered to argue with her, and his gaze looked into the distance. He didn’t know whether his plan would succeed.

Only time would give the answer.

But the outcome seemed to be good.

C21 District.

The moment the explosion began to echo, it was drowned out by the surging sound of water.

When Bode saw the surging black sewage almost flooding the entire sewer, his pupils shrank, and he shouted loudly to all the security team members, "Go!"
