Chapter 75 Counter-reconnaissance Awareness

"Notice, the section chief is moving to the left."

Upon hearing Louis's message, Lin Chen turned his head and looked at the other side of the hall.

Amidst the surging crowd, he immediately spotted Xileina's sea-blue curly hair.

"I'll follow them," Lin Chen said softly.

Lin Chen nimbly weaved through the crowd, occasionally handing out a glass of wine laced with laxatives.

The reason is simple: toilets are not always locked. If someone discovers that the toilet is locked in advance, they will definitely try to unlock it. Although unlocking takes time, what if they succeed?

Therefore, Lin Chen put a low dose of laxative in some wine glasses, delaying the onset of the condition by about 10 minutes.

If the toilet is opened beforehand, then those who have taken laxatives will help Lin Chen fill it back up.

In any case, Zuo Xia won't be able to use the toilet properly today.

Lin Chen felt like he was a master of laxatives.

"..."

As Lin Chen approached, he saw Zuo Xia clinking glasses and talking with a white director.

"...Your work has impressed me deeply. You've truly captured the essence of the American unification wars from a completely new perspective. Your focus on the Latin Americans who lost their homes showcases Western civilization's self-reflection..."

After hearing these words, Lin Chen felt nauseous.

He didn't approach the table, but instead looked towards Section Chief Jiang: tide Leina had been greeting people the whole way, so her pace was actually a bit slower than Lin Chen's.

Jiang Zhengge, on the other hand, took a glass of wine from another waiter in advance and swirled it gently.

Lin Chen knew that Zuo Xia must be very vigilant and wouldn't be so easily fooled.

He needed to find an opportunity, an opportunity that the left shrimp had overlooked.

"..."

"...Director Zuo Xia, it's been a long time."

Zuo Xia turned his head, and when he saw the radiant blue-haired girl, the smile on his lips faded a bit.

"Ms. tide Lena," Zuo Xia smiled awkwardly, "I didn't hear that you would be participating in the carnival today."

"I didn't know you were coming today," Xileina smiled gently. "Life always has its surprises, doesn't it?"

"You have to understand my predicament. 'Turning the Tide' is my life's work. As the director, I certainly want my work to be seen by the world. Since the foundation has suspended its distribution, I can only..."

"It's no use telling me," tide Leina blinked. "I'm just an artist, I don't pay attention to the company's other businesses, but I wish you success~"

"Thank you..." Zuo Xia bowed her head slightly.

"Let me introduce you. This is Jiang Zhengge," tide Leina said casually, pointing to Jiang Zhengge beside her like a little girl. "He is the head of the Rapid Response Section 1 of the Yudu Abnormal Investigation Bureau."

When Zuo Xia met Jiang Zhengge's smiling face, his expression became even more unpleasant.

"So..." he said through gritted teeth, "the Investigation Bureau and the Foundation are collaborating against me?"

"That's an exaggeration, brother," Jiang Zhengge quickly waved his hand. "First, I will not cooperate with the Foundation's lackeys, not even a beautiful lackey like Xileina Boswell; second, you don't have that much power to make us unite against you."

tide Leina glared resentfully at Jiang Zhengge, then smiled and looked at Zuo Xia:

"Don't overthink it, Director Zuo. We're just here for the carnival, who wants to mess with you?"

"Don't try to fool me," Zuo Xia said in a low voice. "I'm warning you, don't be foolish enough to start a fight here. There are people in this banquet hall that even the Foundation can't afford to offend. Otherwise, why do you think I would dare to show my face?"

"Alright, alright, you have power and influence, I won't fool you."

Jiang Zhengge quickly waved his hand and turned to look at Lin Chen not far away.

"Hey, waiter, come here." He waved.

Lin Chen carried the plate to Jiang Zhengge's side, gently turned it so that the cup filled with a large amount of laxative was facing Jiang Zhengge directly.

Jiang Zhengge picked up the glass of wine and handed it to Zuo Xia with a smile:

"Things didn't go well before. Since we're here today, how about we have a good talk as...friends?"

Zuo Xia hesitated for a moment when he saw the wine Jiang Zhengge handed him, but finally accepted the glass.

He brought the glass to his lips, about to drink, but then moved it away.

"What do you want to talk to me about?" Zuo Xia frowned.

"You must know some of the foundation's secrets, right?" Jiang Zhengge shrugged. "Cooperate with the Investigation Bureau and expose their secrets to us. The Investigation Bureau can protect you."

"You really don't take me seriously?" tide Lena muttered.

"Didn't you say you weren't involved in the company's business?" Jiang Zhengge glanced at the girl.

"Don't treat me like a fool," Left Shrimp whispered. "If I don't tell those secrets, maybe I can escape unscathed. But if I do, will I even be able to leave Walduff?"

"What a smart man," Jiang Zhengge exclaimed. "Fine, forget it then, let's just drink and chat instead."

After saying that, Jiang Zhengge raised his wine glass towards Zuo Xia.

Seeing Jiang Zhengge raise his wine glass, Zuo Xia also raised his glass and brought it to his lips.

He thought for a moment, then finally put the glass back on the table and shook his head.

"No, I won't drink. I need to clear my head."

Then, he casually picked up a slice of apple from the fruit plate next to him and put it in his mouth.

Jiang Zhengge's gaze shifted slightly, looking at Lin Chen who was walking away into the distance: the fruit plate with laxative in it had disappeared.

"Are you afraid I'll poison you?" Jiang Zhengge teased.

"Even children know not to drink beverages given by strangers," Zuo Xia smiled, "especially when I'm being watched by so many eyes. Who knows if the drink is poisoned?"

"Very good at counter-surveillance," Jiang Zhengge gave a thumbs up. "Good, may you live forever."

Jiang Zhengge ignored tide Leina, who wanted to clink glasses with him, and drank the liquid in his glass in one gulp. Then he looked at Zuo Xia across from him with a smile.

At this moment, Zuo Xia's face had turned pale, and his legs had begun to tremble.

"What's wrong, Director Zuo?" Jiang Zhengge asked knowingly. "You shouldn't be this scared, right? I already said, today we're not..."

"Excuse me, I'm going to the restroom," Zuo Xia said tremblingly.

He turned around and, with the utmost composure, walked through the crowd toward the exit of the banquet hall.

"The target's taken the bait," Louis said through gritted teeth. "He's... heading to the toilet, damn it, it's bringing back bad memories."

"Relax, the days when you couldn't leave the washroom within a ten-meter radius are over," Lin Chen said softly.

At this moment, Lin Chen was already standing at the door of the employee elevator.

"Ding!"

The elevator doors opened, and Lin Chen stepped into the elevator and pressed the button for the 38th floor.

He pulled out his pistol, removed the magazine containing rubber bullets, and replaced it with live ammunition.

Immediately afterwards, he took out a black mask and a pair of sunglasses and put them on.

"Ding!"

The elevator doors opened, and Lin Chen quickly walked through the corridor to the door of room 3812.

He glanced at the camera beside him and said softly:

"Louis".

"drop."

With remote control enabled, room 3812 was unlocked.

Lin Chen pushed open the door and entered the room.

Next, we just need to wait and see.
