Both sides clung to their positions, and the situation nearly spiraled out of control at one point. However, after realizing arguing wouldn’t solve the problem, both sides finally decided to call their respective backings for help. Then, communication between the backers began, and finally, following a strong request from the President of the United States, US Forces personnel were dispatched as witnesses, and the building’s ard staff entered to search for the capture target.
Yet, this caused an hour to slip by. By the ti the joint team entered Trump Tower, and after much effort akin to moving heaven and earth through the ventilation ducts had finally caught a rat, which had a position locator strapped to its back, another thirty minutes had passed.
At this ti, it was two in the morning, with only one hour left until the drone data refresh. Yan Fei’s operation had effectively served its purpose, successfully delaying ti and causing a stink for the old President of the United States, stirring up trouble between the President and the military.
After capturing the robust rat, the US Forces commander was at a loss. It was clear their enemy had discovered the position locator on Yang Qi and was aware of their sche, hence they had set a trap, using a rat to misdirect them, wasting a great deal of their ti, and even causing a rift between the United States military and the President, which angered them imnsely.
However, it also proved that the military’s direction of action was correct. The capture target must be within the encirclent of US Forces, otherwise, they wouldn’t have attempted this ruse. As long as they continued the search in this area, they were bound to find the hidden capture target.
But there was a very real issue: although the US military had the capture target surrounded, the number of casinos in this area was substantial, and to search them all without missing any would take several days. These casinos were backed by powerful behind-the-scenes forces that the military didn’t dare to completely antagonize. They could blockade the area at dawn, but they wouldn’t be able to continue the blockade after daylight. After all, businesses need to run, and they couldn’t just let the area be indefinitely blockaded.
If the capture target couldn’t be found before daybreak, then it was very likely the US Forces would withdraw their encirclent after sunrise, which would allow the capture target to escape. If that happened, all the efforts put forth by the military that night would have been in vain.
Just then, a subordinate approached and murmured a few words to the US Forces commander, who was stunned for a mont before his face broke into a delighted expression. He summoned everyone out of the command vehicle and headed towards the underground garage of Trump Tower.
The military had traced the route of the big rat to find where it had entered the ventilation ducts of Trump Tower and then descended into the lowest underground garage. They surrounded the garage but, unfortunately, didn’t find any suspicious individuals there—the person who had used the rat to divert their attention had long since left the area.
With no other choice, the military could only examine the traces left in the garage to figure out how the enemy had entered and left the area.
At that mont, soldiers guarding the entrance to the garage saw a black man approaching. This black man was slim and appeared to be in his fifties. His hair and beard were white, his face lined with wrinkles, and he reeked of alcohol, holding a flask, his eyes bloodshot.
Seeing the black man nearing the garage, the guarding soldiers shined their guns and yelled, “Stop, this area is sealed off. Please leave imdiately.”
The black man staggered as he walked, looking like he might collapse at any mont. He appeared not to hear the warning from the Arican soldiers and continued toward the garage entrance, surveying his surroundings. Just as the two Arican soldiers were about to strike, a voice suddenly called out, “Hold your fire, let him in.”
The soldiers saw it was their commander speaking. They promptly holstered their weapons, saluted, and didn’t stop the black man from entering the garage. Once the black man was inside, the US Forces commander and the group behind him followed as well, but they rely trailed after him without interfering with his actions.
One of the guarding soldiers pulled aside a familiar colleague from the Staff Departnt and quietly asked, “Hey, buddy, who is that annoying black ghost?”
The Staff Departnt colleague glanced around and replied quietly, “Have you heard the legend of the Four Major Detectives?”
The inquirer’s eyes lit up, “Of course! They’re my heroes.”
The staff departnt colleague whispered, “Well then, that ‘black ghost’ is one of your heroes. He’s one of our famous detectives in The United States of Arica. His na is Gary Zach.”
The inquiring soldier was taken aback and said, “I always thought our famous detective was Caucasian, how could it be a black ghost? That’s not fair; I won’t recognize him as my hero. Also, what is he doing here?”
