Chapter 1688: Chapter 849: The Crow Appears

"Calm down!"

Lin Beichen shook his head.

"Persistence ensures victory. I believe we can eventually pry open his mouth. What we need now is time. Just wait!"

The issue on Chen Lin’s side has been appropriately handled...

Lin Beichen returned to the team leaders. Time was pressing; they needed to swiftly arrange the follow-up defense, security measures, and other preventive tasks.

"I have an urgent idea. If it’s as Black Cat says and such a person exists, we must find a way to root him out."

The captain looked around at everyone and spoke.

"I’d like to hear everyone’s thoughts on how we find him. Are we really going to search like a needle in a haystack? We don’t have evidence, and we can’t possibly monitor every related person every day. After all, someone has to work."

Lin Beichen understood that these words would surely provoke dissatisfaction, but right now, using this approach was the only way to make everyone truly pay attention. After all, this issue is crucial for this mission.

"I have an idea."

Lin Beichen’s mind suddenly sparked.

"Don’t you have an investigation team? Let them join. If they can find some clues from their gathered intel, maybe we can pick up the trail. I think the detective captain should understand that gathering their opinions could yield more clues."

"Great idea!"

The detective captain immediately called the higher-ups to make arrangements. Before long, a team arrived, tasked with assisting in finding relevant clues.

"First, tell me about the specific situation."

Having received orders from the higher-ups, the team leader was a bit at a loss. They had just arrived, unfamiliar with the place, and suddenly received a task to assist in an investigation, so they needed to understand the team’s situation first.

The captain then introduced the general situation of this operation.

"Actually, we encountered difficulties with this mission. We thought capturing the main culprit would eliminate the threat, and we could then safely hold the sports event. Unexpectedly, this person refuses to reveal any information after capture. It took great effort to play the emotional card, having the female team member sacrifice some emotions to extract that there is another managerial person within the terrorist organization, who has already rallied many people to this city for illegal activities, threatening civilians’ safety. We can’t stand by and do nothing, but time is tight. Therefore, we ask for your help to identify the mastermind behind it."

"Rest assured, comrade, leave it to us."

The team leader, after listening, promised to fully assist the team in completing their mission.

"Are your thoughts a bit off? Think carefully, if those people want to directly enter our territory, it’s not going to be that easy. Is there something else going on? Given that, how did they get in? You should think about the issue from this perspective, shouldn’t you?"

What the team leader said indeed got everyone thinking.

"Those ruthless individuals intend to sabotage, but that doesn’t mean they’re devoid of emotions. I think Black Cat is the same. The fact that his daughter is willing to disclose case details shows there might still be room for work from him."

The team leader’s analysis gradually made everyone realize that their problem was having too little understanding of the case.

"Alright, everyone, think carefully about the validity of my words. To win a battle, we first need to understand the enemy. So, take me to see Black Cat. I’m quite experienced in interrogation, could his anti-detection skills possibly surpass mine?"

Thus, the team leader was brought before Black Cat.

"Oh, seems like a big shot arrived this time. But I’m sorry, I absolutely won’t disclose a shred more information. For me, it’s death either way, speaking offers me no advantage. I’m your prisoner now, my execution is just a matter of your word, it’s not a big deal."

"Of course, executing you is easy, but I don’t intend to just send you to court."

The team leader’s approach instantly set off alarm bells in Black Cat’s mind.

"What do you mean?"

"You don’t understand the gravity of this issue yet? Our team’s efforts are solely for safeguarding national security.

As for how to deal with you, I’m really not interested. Execution is just one option, perhaps there are other ways. Although our country has abolished those extremely inhumane death penalties, sometimes, it’s not impossible to torture someone, right? Like life imprisonment."

The team leader’s words made Black Cat rather worried. The thought of not dying but facing inexplicable life imprisonment dawned on him.

"Oh, and if you perform well in prison, we might even reduce your sentence. In that case, you have a chance to get out, but that’s at least fourteen years later."

"You!"

Black Cat was shocked, thinking if he really ended up with a fixed-term sentence, upon release, not to mention what might happen, he might just meet his end. Even staying in prison couldn’t evade death.

The organization is pervasive and might wait for him in some corner; as soon as he appears, they’ll find ways to kill him.

So no matter what, being controlled by these prisons ultimately leads to death.

"You’re ruthless!"

"Exactly! I know your organization’s discipline is strict. If you end up coming out, perhaps they’ll assassinate you, right? But don’t forget, this is my country, who dares to do that?"
