Chapter 796 - 354: First Meeting (Part 2)

Chapter 796: Chapter 354: First Meeting (Part 2)

The bustling atmosphere from just now quickly fell silent, and only the chatter of nearby tourists could be heard, further accentuating the cold and tranquil mood in front of them, as if everything revolved around the "confrontation" between these two women.

Chen Zhiyu and Li Yanan.

One is kind and sweet, the other is cold and proud; one warm, one cold, like Xiaolan and Ai from Detective Conan.

"Uh... let’s head out first!"

Gu Ji, caught between the two women, also sensed something amiss at the scene.

Although there was no change on Chen Zhiyu’s face, he, having grown up with her, could tell that the clear eyes of this girl were showing some displeasure.

So he thought about pulling Gao Bo along to lighten the mood.

But unexpectedly, at the critical moment, this guy ran off to mix with Wu Kang and the others in front, even turning back to give him a meaningful look, as if to say, "What did I tell you before?"

In the end, Gu Ji was left alone, facing the two women by himself.

Oh no;

To be precise, it wasn’t just him;

There was also a dog.

Gu Ji walked in the middle, holding Dusi, with Chen Zhiyu on the left and Li Yanan on the right.

The three walked in silence, saying nothing.

After thinking for a long time, Gu Ji wanted to say something, but nothing seemed appropriate.

Just as he was enduring this "cold and deadly" torment.

Suddenly, Chen Zhiyu’s phone rang. She took out her phone, responded with two "hmm" sounds, then after hearing something, her expression changed abruptly.

After hanging up the call, she slowed her pace hesitantly, her delicate eyebrows furrowed.

Seeing Chen Zhiyu’s face looking off, Gu Ji immediately inquired with concern.

"What’s wrong? Did something happen?"

"It’s nothing, just a work issue."

While speaking, Chen Zhiyu lowered her eyes, secretly glanced at Li Yanan, but quickly hid all her emotions, returning to her usual work-focused demeanor, "Sorry, I’m afraid I can’t join you tonight for the welcome party. I’ve been called to return to work immediately."

"Don’t worry about me, you go ahead with your work. I’ll catch up with you when you have time."

"Okay, I’ll go tell Gao Bo and the others."

After speaking, Chen Zhiyu rushed out of the airport without looking back.

Watching her back, Li Yanan was just about to say something, but when she turned her head, she saw Gu Ji frowning and watching Chen Zhiyu leave, his eyes filled with hidden concern.

Hmm, childhood friends always seem to be like that...

...

"Driver, please go a little faster!"

In Ningzhou City, Chen Zhiyu was anxiously urging the driver.

With a "screech," the taxi came to a stop by the roadside.

"Tap tap tap..."

Chen Zhiyu walked briskly, turning into the gates of the National Security Bureau along the pedestrian path.

Entering the building, she was surprised to find her colleagues in the intelligence analysis department already standing at their workstations, organizing materials. Some were in running clothes, others in suits, seeming to have been suddenly called back.

Everyone lifted their heads upon hearing footsteps, and without exception, they were all dumbfounded.

"Xiaoyu, you’re finally here, quickly, help me print this material..."

Zeng Dan, holding a stack of documents, approached and was about to hand them over.

But then she noticed Chen Zhiyu wearing a light pink camisole, revealing her slender waist, blue jeans, and little white shoes. Her white sports socks gently hugged her well-proportioned calves, making her look both sexy and adorable.

This outfit shocked all her colleagues.

Everyone knew that Chen Zhiyu was pretty and capable at work, making her the "unit darling," but she usually wore black, white, and gray professional attire, which, while elegant and classy, lacked a bit of the vivacity one at her age should have, and also felt slightly distant.

Now, dressed like this, it was the first time everyone had seen her.

Such a stark contrast was simply captivating.

But Zeng Dan, who knew everything, immediately understood there could only be one reason for Chen Zhiyu’s outfit: she was going to meet "that guy," so when handing her the materials, she whispered playfully into her ear, "Sorry, Xiaoyu, sorry for interrupting your date time!"

"Ah! Sister Dan~"

Chen Zhiyu blushed, lowering her head.

"Oh no, oh no, it’s the first time I’ve seen this girl so moved. I can’t even imagine how fragrant she must be!"

"Hehehe, I dare to! Xiaoyu, since you just ran here, leave the printing to me, sit and rest a bit, Mr. Liao won’t be back for a while!"

"You kid! Your response is quick!"

Colleagues whispered among themselves, eagerly offering their help to Chen Zhiyu.

But she ultimately declined their assistance.

When Deputy Director Liao Yunqing returned to the office, everyone gathered in the conference room for a secret meeting.

The blinds were drawn.

The lights dimmed, and the projector turned on.

A live broadcast began playing on the screen; it seemed like a public news conference from some country.

Amidst the countless camera flashes, a grey-haired military official in uniform was standing at the podium, reading a script in Portuguese.

Indeed, he was the Deputy Minister of Defense, Bilos.

"So, after unanimous discussion in our national strategic meeting, we have determined the 7472 unit to be a ’foreign terrorist organization,’ and have prohibited any domestic individual from providing support to 7472. All related personnel are banned from entry, and from this moment on, we will launch the most intense strike in Brazil’s history against 7472. Soon, we will take the lead in convening the ’Advanced Crime’ meeting!"

"Pop!"

At this point in the speech, Liao Yunqing immediately pressed pause, tossed the remote onto the table, and pushed up his silver-framed glasses, "Let’s hear it, what do you all think!"

Chen Zhiyu looked down at the documents in her hand.

Although she knew while helping Zeng Dan with the copying that this meeting was most likely related to the mysterious "7472 unit" from before, she hadn’t expected Brazil to suddenly classify it as a ’terrorist organization.’

This was extremely serious.

It’s important to know that a terrorist organization is an extremist faction in the field of crime, and one can "go to any lengths" against such personnel, meaning to strike at any cost. Whether they are citizens, police, special police forces, or even military and special forces, they can act against terrorists without any burden.

Currently, most countries around the world have zero tolerance for terrorist organizations.

The "Advanced Crime" mentioned by Bilos is led by Xia, Russia, America, England, and France, and consists of a year-round crime investigation alliance of 49 countries, specifically targeting terrorism.

If the 7472 were recognized as a terrorist organization by the meeting, it would become the enemy of the entire world!

"Mr. Liao, from the intelligence we have gathered and the contents of the document from the headquarters, 7472 hasn’t carried out any actions aimed at terrorist attacks for the time being. Instead, it’s all about resolving crises."

Shi Zhengmin, the team leader, was the first to speak.

As he spoke, Zeng Dan lifted the materials in her hand, "The documents everyone has are all 7472-related information I compiled. So far, apart from the photo released by Brazil, where a drone attacked a civilian area, there have been no other incidents harming civilians."

"Could the Ministry of Defense of Brazil be fabricating the facts?"

"It’s unlikely, right? There’s no enmity between the two sides! The 7472 reappeared after more than half a year, and it’s making such a big move the moment it shows up. Maybe something happened internally, and a change in leadership might mean a shift in the organization’s style!"

"According to information from the Military Intelligence Department Two, the mysterious weapon transaction obtained by the Ministry of Defense of Brazil is still missing and highly likely to be in the hands of 7472!"

"Hmm..."

Liao Yunqing nodded thoughtfully, then suddenly looked at Chen Zhiyu, "Xiaoyu, the last Japan action, you had the most contact with Jian Na, who was suspected in the report of being a 7472 member. Tell us your thoughts."
