"Officer, isn't it enough by now? The old lady's frail body can't go much farther."
The old principal, leaning on a cane and trembling, held onto a young assistant officer's hand, noticing that all the "persons involved" had unknowingly been led several dozens of meters away from the orphanage.
With the orphanage now only an outline behind several large trees, she finally couldn't help but speak up.
At this moment, alarm bells were already ringing in her heart.
To an ordinary person, today's events might seem nothing special, just a string of bad luck.
However, to her, there were oddities everywhere, subtly revealed.
A muddled conflict, both parties' identities in doubt, and these officers who seemed intent on leading her far from the orphanage's bounds...
One coincidence might be chance, but so many coincidences make it truly suspicious.
Although she didn't believe this base had been exposed, her hidden spy identity made her exercise enough caution when facing Earth's official forces.
"Hmm! That's about enough."
Surprisingly, it was not the lead officer who spoke.
Instead, it was the Dog Catching Team Captain, with a "suspect" identity, one of the instigators of the fight!
Seeing this, two "officers" immediately released the hands of the person they restrained.
Facing the old principal's surprised gaze, the man smiled.
"Allow me to reintroduce myself, Captain of the Armed Police Force Special Operations Team... Chu Tian."
The old principal's pupils contracted.
The Armed Police Force!?
"Captain Chu, those hits earlier really hurt. Did you have to hit so hard?"
Meanwhile, on the other side, Ning Shisan was also released by the two "officers," rubbing his slightly sore arm with a smile.
Chu Tian glanced at Ning Shisan with meaningful intent.
The movements seemed to hold some shadows of KGB Combat Skills; it looks like this "contact person" is no simple character either...
"Apologies, brother, but the target of this mission is a trained individual. If the fight looked fake, I was worried it would be exposed. However, brother, your skills are quite impressive too. We should train together sometime."
"Hehe! Sure thing," Ning Shisan nodded with a smile.
"You... what are you... doing...?"
The old principal looked bewildered, not quite understanding the situation.
Just moments ago, the two groups were in a heated fight, and in the blink of an eye, they were "hitting it off"...
So everything just now... was actually an act for me?!
The purpose?
Fortunately, the target they seemed to be after wasn't her; otherwise, they wouldn't have brazenly revealed their identities before her, indicating there was something else at play.
The mission target they mentioned...
If it's not her, then who could it be?
The next moment, Chu Tian pulled out a man's photo from his pocket, showing it to the old principal with a serious expression.
"Zhao Hu, 42 years old, from Hekou Town, Peixian County.
A short time ago, he killed seven members of a neighboring family due to a neighborhood dispute, the methods incredibly cruel. He is an extremely dangerous fugitive, and we are the team responsible for his capture.
Old principal, have you seen this person?"
Seeing the man's face in the photo transported the old principal into a sudden realization!
So... it was because of this...
Indeed, if they were targeting them, the opponent wouldn't use such a method. Even without fighter jets, at least tanks would be necessary, right?
Turns out, all the trouble was stirred by this prototype...
Damn it, with the Listener monitoring all the way, how did the opponent trace the prototype back here?
It's not scientific!
"This fugitive is exceptionally cunning. If we hadn't used city surveillance and satellite tracking to pinpoint his trail, we wouldn't have found this place."
Chu Tian timely offered an "explanation."
Old principal: "..."
Fine, maybe it's not biological, but more mechanical...
In terms of surveillance tracking, mechanical civilization and biological civilization each have their strengths.
They gather intelligence through sound, while humans have surveillance cameras all over the world providing images.
No matter how skilled they are, they can't hack all municipal cameras; it's just not their specialty.
However, the good news is, the opponent seems to have only noticed Zhao Hu without realizing the anomaly of the orphanage...
With her doubts cleared and the anomalies explained, she felt a little relieved.
Thankfully, it wasn't the worst-case scenario of identity exposure...
After all, even if humans knew there was a high-profile criminal in the orphanage, they likely wouldn't suspect the orphanage's residents of collusion, probably thinking the fugitive randomly sought refuge there.
That being said, the trouble they face now is not small.
Since the opponent went through such extensive planning to lure her out, it means they have concrete evidence that someone is indeed within the orphanage!
There's no use denying; once the police search, she wouldn't be able to explain, and the entire orphanage would be implicated...
Seeing the old principal's eyes flicker and her refusal to speak, Chu Tian prompted again at the right moment.
"It seems our assumptions were correct; you indeed have seen him, haven't you?
Don't be afraid. While the fugitive is extremely vicious, we've arranged sufficient police force, and we have snipers on standby; he won't escape this time!
Are you hesitant to speak because you're worried about the children inside? Has he taken them hostage to threaten you?
