After Crossing Over, Chapter 157 : Operation to Capture the Criminals

The agricultural industrial park under the Zhou K Group covered a planned area of 6,000 acres.

It contained standardized planting demonstration zones, seed and seedling breeding areas, as well as storage, processing, logistics, and trade sub-areas.

Due to the complex structure of the park itself, coupled with the mix of ordinary employees, hostages, and ard criminals inside, the special forces brigade's combat personnel couldn't directly launch a charge and assault.

At this mont, over 600 soldiers were distributed around the park, secretly blocking all access roads.

One hundred insect robots infiltrated the park from different directions under the cover of night.

These insect robots were about the size of walnuts, non-aggressive, but extrely stealthy.

They integrated detection, scanning, and other functions, specially designed for reconnaissance and search missions.

The information transmitted back by each insect robot was synchronously fed back to the command center's tactical sand table.

As information continued to be supplented, the internal building structure of the park was gradually restored, presented before everyone's eyes.

Gu Junwan sat upright in front of the projection screen in the command center, her nerves taut, closely watching the battlefield in the park area.

At present, she wasn't issuing any more action orders, because professional matters should be left to professionals.

For this kind of combat that greatly tests on-the-spot adaptability, it was obviously more suitable to let the special forces team leader take the lead.

At this mont, the projection screen had been divided into several split screens.

The screens were simultaneously feeding back the action progress status of various areas from different perspectives.

The split screen about 1 ter wide in the upper left corner displayed the images transmitted back by Shen Han's detection glasses.

This screen was also the one the female monarch paid the most attention to.

......

Shen Han and Ren Hui jumped down from the compartnt, lifting the unconscious people who had been placed on manual hydraulic trolleys back into the compartnt.

The room they were in was a warehouse without surveillance caras installed.

tal shelves stood in the corners, and so cardboard boxes labeled "Organic Fruits and Vegetables" were scattered on the floor.

With no hiding places around, Shen Han could only hide the more than thirty unconscious people in the truck compartnt.

She knew the rescue forces would arrive soon. As long as the unconscious people weren't discovered by the criminals during this ti, they could be safely rescued.

"Brother Hui, find a way to leave a note, roughly explaining the current situation. Rember to keep the flashlight on to illuminate it."

"In case soone suddenly wakes up, they won't be completely in the dark."

Ren Hui, who had lived in comfort for many years, was sitting on a stack of cardboard boxes, panting heavily.

He really didn't want to move anymore, but he also knew that Shen Han had no one else to use at the mont.

So he resignedly stood up, tore off a piece of cardboard, brightened the flashlight taken from the criminals, and began writing using the residual blood in the compartnt.

Shen Han was using a silenced handgun to puncture the truck's tires while calling the special task force leader.

As Ren Hui had said earlier, although they had changed into the criminals' outfits, if they went out and interacted with people, their identities would easily be discovered as problematic.

Shen Han needed assistance, not to rush out alone with reckless courage.

The more urgent the mont, the more a cool head was needed.

The call was connected as soon as it was made. Before Shen Han could speak, the special task force leader's voice ca through.

"Captain Shen, we've seen everything that's happened on your end. The soldiers are in position."

"Now there's an urgent problem that needs your imdiate attention!"

Shen Han didn't hesitate: "Please give your orders!"

Special task force leader: "The enemy has a monitoring room in the park, which greatly restricts our soldiers' actions. You need to go there imdiately, take over that place, and our soldiers can then infiltrate from more points right away."

At present, the detailed building layout of so areas of the park had been modeled in the command center.

Through the phone, Shen Han could directly head to the monitoring room without taking any wrong turns.

She found the car keys in the front of the truck, locked the vehicle with the compartnt secure, then led Ren Hui out of the warehouse through a side door.

Ren Hui was extrely unwilling to follow her out to execute the mission.

But Shen Han had reasons why she had to bring him along, so she didn't agree to let him stay in the truck compartnt.

Usually, in criminal organizations like the Zhou K Group, the vast majority of mbers were male.

Even though Shen Han was wearing loose uniforms and a hood that could cover her entire head, as soon as she spoke, she might imdiately arouse suspicion.

Bringing Ren Hui along, when necessary, he could speak to buy them so ti.

And with this bit of breathing room, Shen Han could adjust her strategy in ti or take direct action.

The two took a winding route to an office building.

The building had only two floors, with a dark hall below.

The windows upstairs were lit, which was Shen Han's destination.

[There are three people in the monitoring room, with an alarm on the left wall and on the edge of the monitoring desk. No matter how you deal with the people inside, rember not to let them have a chance to press the alarm.]

After reading the text ssage on her phone, Shen Han whispered to Ren Hui: "The monitoring room is upstairs with three people inside. We'll go up together later. Can you help

lure everyone out of the room?"

Ren Hui shook his head without thinking: "How can I do that? I don't know them, I can't co up with a good reason to lure them out."

Shen Han didn't have ti to discern whether he really couldn't do it or was just making excuses.

She thought briefly, then quickly said: "Just say this: say we two were assigned to receive goods and missed the chance to peek at the Ogas bathing. Ask if they have surveillance footage here and if we can watch the replay."

Hearing this explanation, Ren Hui was quite impressed.

Given those people's depraved nature, discussing such things would definitely lower their guard.

"But there's still a problem. Although this reason is plausible, it can't guarantee that everyone in the room will co out."

"It's fine, we'll adjust a bit. When you enter, just offer them cigarettes, gathering them together is enough."

After saying this, Shen Han led Ren Hui upstairs.

When changing clothes in the compartnt earlier, she had seen Ren Hui move his own cigarettes to his pocket.

So at this mont, without needing to ask, she arranged everything clearly for him.

The door of the monitoring room on the second floor was half-open, with the sll of instant noodles wafting out.

Shen Han hid the gun with a fresh magazine in her clothes, carefully pulled down her hood to cover her neck, then signaled to Ren Hui that he could proceed according to plan.

Ren Hui had no choice but to cooperate.

Apart from the fact that he couldn't resist, more importantly, he had sowhat guessed the identity of the woman before him.

After all, he had been in the underworld for many years. If he still thought of Shen Han as Zhou Nuoman's henchman at this point, he would truly have wasted his eyes.

Having guessed that she was an undercover military officer, Ren Hui could only try to earn more rits.

These achievents could all be life-saving qualifications when it ca ti for a final reckoning.

"Brothers, you've worked hard. Hehe, co, co, have a smoke and take a break."

The sudden voice startled all three people in the monitoring room.

But upon seeing that the newcors were "their own people," they relaxed again.

One of them hurriedly grabbed the hood on the table, put it on his head, then barked: "Who told you to co here? Don't you know outsiders aren't allowed in the monitoring room at will?"

In the park, wearing uniforms and hoods during "work hours" was a rule set by Wang Qiang.

The specific reason wasn't clear to many, but the most widely circulated was a story of revenge.

Once, an Oga who had been sold as a "pet" to a rich rchant gained her master's favor.

On one occasion, the rchant took her to an underground casino for fun. The Oga recognized a group of people who had originally sold her, so she instigated the rchant to have them all killed.

The authenticity of this legend couldn't be verified, but the attire that concealed one's figure and face provided conditions for Shen Han's action.

Ren Hui began reciting his script while eagerly offering cigarettes to the three n inside.

The three were initially annoyed by Shen Han and Ren Hui's uninvited arrival.

But when they saw that the cigarettes Ren Hui offered were expensive, good quality ones, their anger dissipated by half.

Then, hearing why they had co here, the three imdiately burst into laughter.

They gathered around, huddling together to enjoy Ren Hui's cigarette-lighting service.

"I say, you two have such dirty minds, even thinking of checking the surveillance footage."

"Don't spread this around, or all the brothers will follow your example. How are we supposed to work then?"

While two of them were chuckling at Ren Hui, the remaining one curiously turned his gaze towards Shen Han.

More accurately, towards the unlit cigarette between her fingers.

"Why aren't you smoking? No light?"

Shen Han shook her head, then held the cigarette in her left hand while her right hand began rummaging in her pocket.

The man who had spoken stared at the hand before him, feeling increasingly uneasy.

'This person's fingers are too slender, like a woman's.'

Just as he was thinking this, he saw the tall, thin "brother" before him sohow pull out a gun, then pull the trigger at him.

After quickly taking down one person, Shen Han's movents didn't pause at all. She raised her gun and fired consecutive shots at the other two criminals.

One person who was shot didn't imdiately lose consciousness. He was half-propped on the table trying to shout, but was silenced by a swift chop to the neck from Shen Han, who had quickly stepped forward.

"Help

out, find sothing to gag these three and tie up their hands and feet."

As Shen Han spoke, Ren Hui still had more than half a cigarette left.

While marveling at her decisive action, he couldn't help but curiously ask: "Why didn't you just kill them?"

Shen Han was dialing her phone while replying: "If we killed them all, we wouldn't be able to interrogate them."

"How many more people are on their chain? Which groups have they had dealings with? Where were the previously missing people transported to? All of this needs to be investigated!"

The mont the three criminals in the monitoring room fell from gunshots, the special forces team mbers who had been waiting for a long ti imdiately rushed into the park.

They were like panthers prowling in the night, silently beginning their harvest after reaching their respective combat positions.

Shen Han walked to the monitoring screens, looking at the lightning operations unfolding simultaneously in several areas. Her heart, which had been hanging high, finally settled halfway.

However, just as she was about to ask the special task force to send soone else to take over the monitoring room so she could go out to join the fight,

She suddenly saw Yan Ni's figure on one of the screens.

She was being controlled by a tall man wearing a beret, having a video call with soone.

The girl was pushed in front of the communication lens, trembling.

There was no sound in the monitoring room, but through the screen, Shen Han could clearly feel Yan Ni's helplessness and despair at this mont.

Ren Hui ca over, pointing at the man on the screen and exclaiming: "That's Wang Qiang! Quick, have your people catch him!"

Shen Han ran out with her gun, while speaking to the special task force leader on the other end of the phone: "Wang Qiang has imprisoned a woman separately. Can you locate his current position?"

"Please dispatch a tactical team closest to . We must not let the ringleader have a chance to escape!"
