At the entrance, Lin Youyu was already waiting.
Upon seeing Chen Fang, he quickly walked up.
"Did you make contact?"
Chen Fang asked.
Lin Youyu, his face anxious, shook his head and said, "We were too late. Li Anran has already taken action..."
In the original plan.
Chen Fang was supposed to arrive in Jena within three days and make contact with the undercover team led by Li Anran.
But due to being trapped in the mountains.
It took them a full five days to arrive.
The day before yesterday.
Because they hadn't seen anyone.
Li Anran decided to take action.
She instructed the entire undercover team to wait in place while she entered Changhe Electric Fraud Park under Qi Xianhe's command through her own secret line to gather evidence.
Yesterday.
Li Anran was still able to send ssages through her secret communication device.
But all of today.
She hadn't sent a single ssage back.
The team believed that sothing might have happened to her.
"Reckless, utterly reckless!"
Chen Fang burst into anger.
Before he ca, he repeatedly stressed not to act rashly and that they must wait for him to arrive in Jena.
Lin Youyu explained, "Brother Fang, it was us who were delayed on the road, not Mr. Li's fault. Besides, her actions aren't under our command, are they? Now's not the ti to assign bla; we should be thinking about what to do next."
These words.
Made Chen Fang's agitated heart relax.
He sighed deeply, "You're right, I'm too anxious. The problem indeed doesn't lie with Comrade Anran."
Just as the two were preparing to find a place to discuss the next steps.
A young man with an anxious look suddenly appeared in the hallway, imdiately spotting Lin Youyu and Chen Fang, and without a word, walked up quickly.
"Xiao Jun, why are you here?"
Upon seeing the man's face clearly, Lin Youyu imdiately stepped forward and asked.
"I'm looking for Comrade Chen Fang, where is he?"
Xiao Jun asked.
Lin Youyu turned and pointed, saying, "That's him."
"Brother Fang, this is Officer Xiao Jun from the undercover team."
Lin Youyu then introduced him to Chen Fang.
Xiao Jun glanced around, looking very cautious; Lin Youyu noticed his unease and said, "Let's go talk in my room."
The three entered Lin Youyu's guest room, and as soon as the door was closed, Xiao Jun urgently said, "Leader, take a look at this."
While speaking.
He took a letter out of his bag and handed it to Chen Fang, saying, "We found this envelope at the entrance to our team's secret location half an hour ago."
Opening the envelope.
A few photographs fell out.
Chen Fang picked up the first one and was dumbfounded.
The main subject of the photo was Li Anran, bound to a chair, with a rag stuffed in her mouth, and two ard n in plainclothes pointing guns at her head.
The second was even more horrifying.
Li Anran's clothes had been stripped, leaving only her underwear, hands bound, hanging in mid-air, several n pointing at her body laughing loudly, it was obvious she had been humiliated.
The remaining photos were the sa.
With each one more brutal than the last, Chen Fang couldn't bring himself to continue looking.
"There's also a piece of paper here."
Lin Youyu handed a folded piece of paper to Chen Fang.
On it was a line written in standard Huaxia script: "Leave Jena, or she dies!"
"Damn it, provocation! Bastards! So arrogant!"
Chen Fang raged.
He threw the photos on the bed fiercely.
"Ambassador Chen, after discussing with the brothers, we decided to rescue Mr. Li. I ca to discuss the action plan with you."
Xiao Jun said, clenching his fists.
As soon as he finished speaking.
Lin Youyu raised his hand, filled with righteous indignation, "I'll join too!"
At this mont.
Chen Fang had gradually cald from his anger.
Honestly, at that mont, he had the urge to rush in, but he quickly cald down.
The reason he traveled all the way to Jena was to control the situation, and this was the mont for him as the commander to strategize; how could he let these photos provoke him into losing his composure?
"We definitely need to save her, but not now. Besides, Changhe Electric Fraud Park is heavily guarded. Including our inside contacts, we only have about a dozen people; capturing it is unlikely. By then, we may not be able to rescue her, and could die in vain; it's not worth it."
"We're not afraid of sacrifice."
Just as Chen Fang finished speaking.
Xiao Jun said, his eyes like daggers.
Chen Fang patted his shoulder, saying, "There's a bigger threat to deal with; Li Anran's identity being exposed indicates one thing—soone in our midst has betrayed us."
"What?"
Xiao Jun and Lin Youyu both exclaid in surprise.
This conclusion wasn't hard to analyze.
Li Anran's entry into Changhe Electric Fraud Park was a covert operation, but those inside accurately identified her. There are only two possibilities: either Li Anran's disguise was too poor, or soone betrayed us, providing her information to Changhe Electric Fraud Park.
Considering the envelope was precisely delivered to our base's entrance, there's only one possibility—soone internally has been bought.
"What do we do then?"
Xiao Jun inhaled deeply, asking.
Chen Fang pondered for a mont.
Said, "Finding that person in a short ti is impossible. So, when you go back, say you couldn't find , then report to the country. I'll have soone coordinate with you; they'll order you to stay put."
"Stay put? What about Mr. Li?"
Xiao Jun asked.
Chen Fang's eyes were shadowed.
Said, "It seems we need to find another way. Anyway, do as I say; this is an order!"
No matter how much Xiao Jun objected, he couldn't argue further.
Nodded.
Said, "Alright, Ambassador Chen, I'll head back now."
After sending off Xiao Jun.
Chen Fang's mood remained heavy.
Internal and external crises lood around him.
Firstly, Li Anran was being held hostage. Secondly, a traitor in the undercover team—the combination of these blows basically rendered him helpless.
If he were in his own country.
He might still play a personal heroism role.
Charging in alone, figuring out a way to rescue her, but here in Jena, even if he successfully rescued her, without support, the result would be the sa; he might even end up sacrificing himself for nothing—a calcula
