CHAPTER 568: CHAPTER 568: MADE CONTACT WITH HEI HU

After finishing all that, Ye Chen then sat down on an old sofa nearby.

Seeing Anying take out all the equipment and then connect it to a power source, he continuously fiddled with it here.

He could hear the sound of electric current from the machines, though not very loud; being so close, it was perfectly audible.

Then, Ye Chen heard a sound like a cell phone connecting.

Could this be the proof? Had they successfully established contact with Hei Hu?

He dared not speak, nor did he dare to ask too much.

The sound lasted for about 5 seconds, and then, suddenly, he heard it disappear.

He didn’t hear any voice from the other end, but he could distinctly hear a man’s heavy breathing.

"Hei Hu, is it you?"

Anying had started speaking.

"How come it’s you?"

"How could you? You didn’t expect I would still be alive and use someone else’s equipment to contact you."

"Where are you now?"

"I’ve already contacted you, where else could I be?"

"Why are there three people at your hiding spot now?"

"Because one of the others is a member of U12?"

"You, what are you saying? A member of U12?"

"That’s right, if I hadn’t taken him down, it wouldn’t have been easy for me to get here, but I didn’t know what to do with him, so I had to bring him here temporarily."

"Are you sure he is a member of U12?"

"Yes, I’m sure."

"What happened after you were taken away by them?"

"At that time, I was indeed discovered by the members of U12, and they controlled me. They just locked me in a room. Later, I don’t know what happened, but during a moment he came in to bring me food, I suddenly attacked and knocked him unconscious in a surprise."

"Surprise attack and knocked him out? Is it that easy to deal with a member of U12?"

"I’m not sure what happened exactly, but it should be that way, otherwise, how could I have possibly escaped?"

"Did they torture you? Or ask you about some matters?"

"They did ask, but I didn’t say anything. I don’t know why they kept me locked up, I’m not clear about their purpose, but they took away everything I had on me."

"So now, is your situation still safe?"

"As of now, although relatively safe, this matter can’t be hidden for long. Once they discover a member is missing, they will definitely start a large-scale search, and then, I don’t know if I can keep myself safe."

"How can I believe what you’re saying?"

"Hehe, if you don’t believe it, then I’m helpless. Moreover, your approach has indeed disappointed me. I originally wanted to come here to establish a communication link with you using the equipment, but unexpectedly, you sent someone to take all my equipment away. It seems, you really want to drive me to a dead end."

"I had no choice, I’m acting according to the rules. If I left these things here at this time, if you were me, how would you choose?"

"Yes, I understand, you have to prioritize the bigger picture, after all, you can’t let one person’s mistake delay the entire team’s mission."

"Right, being a person who understands the bigger picture, you also know very well how our organization has operated everything. So, I really had no other choice."

"Didn’t you ever think about rescuing me? Are you really going to leave me in danger and not care anymore?"

"I did think about it, but the current situations are quite urgent, and I didn’t want to complicate matters further. I was just thinking about waiting until this whole matter is completely over, then figure out a way to rescue you."

"How can you be sure that I will still be alive until that day? And I tell you, if it wasn’t for me revealing some information to them, they would have definitely thought I had no value and would have killed me already, but don’t worry, the information I divulged was all trivial."

"You’re relatively smart."

"So, I now want to get back into the organization and bring some secrets, including this member of U12."

"Secrets? What secrets?"

"I discovered a set of electronic data at his hiding place, so I copied it completely."

"What? You’ve already copied it? Where is it? Is it with you?"

"Of course, it’s with me."

"Now plug it into that communication port, let me first receive the signal to see what your situation is."

"Alright, I understand."

Having said this, Anying just nodded and then took out a USB drive given to him by Ada and plugged it into a machine.

After waiting for about one or two minutes, he once again heard that man’s voice come through.

"Indeed, it’s the data of those members, how did you get such confidential stuff?"

"It’s a long story to explain to you; my question is, is this data helpful to our mission?"

"Of course it is, if the data is completely correct, then it will help us understand all the members of U12."

"So, I think this should be a valuable item, so I want to hand it over."

"Where are you now?"

"Still at the same place."

"Right now, use this set of communication equipment, and carry the portable ones with you. I will try to locate your position, then send you the communication code, and we’ll meet in person later."

"I want to meet you now, I want to know if my situation is really safe?"

"What, do you still doubt me? Do you think I would kill you? Rest assured, I won’t do that."

"I hope you can live up to your words. And after this mission is over, I don’t want to take assignments in the Domestic region again. This experiencing life and death has been enough, so I don’t want to go through all of this again."
