Chapter 396: Walls Have Ears

I don't know how much time had passed, but Chen Jiaju finally regained consciousness.

The first thing he saw was not those vicious arms dealers, but a middle-aged man with a thick beard.

Seeing that he had woken up, the middle-aged man introduced himself first: "Let me introduce myself. I am Colonel Kade of the Soviet Union Security Committee! The organization you clashed with earlier is abbreviated as FSB, which is also a reformed KGB."

"KGB?" Chen Jiaju was stunned for a moment, then said, "Am I in the Soviet Union now?"

Kade nodded and said, "We contacted the Security Bureau of Ukraine, and I know you are a Police Constable for the CIA. The Admiral of the Security Committee wants to see you; you must come with us to Moscow today!"

Chen Jiaju knew he had no power to refuse now, so he could only say to Kade, "Can you do me a favor? Get these things off my body; I'm about to die of heat!"

Chen Jiaju's physical fitness was still very robust; even though he had been nearly frozen to death earlier, he was still lively after recovering.

Following Colonel Kade onto a helicopter directly to Moscow, Chen Jiaju did not expect to see a person who surprised him greatly there.

"Sir Chen, why are you here?" Chen Jiaju said with a shocked expression.

Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "I should be the one asking you that! How did you end up mixed up with the CIA?"

Chen Jiaju said with a complicated expression, "This... is a long story!"

Chen Jiajun nodded and said, "True enough. There is a big shot who wants to see you, hurry inside!"

Chen Jiaju asked curiously, "You still haven't answered my question."

Chen Jiajun smiled and said, "You should know that I have an international Security Company, right?"

Chen Jiaju said with a shocked expression, "Don't tell me..."

"That's right, I've also been dragged into this unfortunate business." Chen Jiajun sighed and led Chen Jiaju into a conference room.

Soon, several men in military uniforms walked in, followed by the CIA representative and the people from Ukraine, all entering the conference room.

After everyone sat down, the Admiral of the Security Committee said directly to Chen Jiaju, "A few days ago, a suspicious nuclear warhead was smuggled out of the country! His name is Xu Jie, and he is employed by the CIA. However, he stole quite a few Ukrainian military secrets from the Soviet Union government! We have been investigating him for a long time!"

"He has a younger sister in Australia named Annie! We hope you can assist us in finding her and use her to lure Xu Jie out! This mission is very important to us and to international security!"

This sentence was directed at Chen Jiaju, while the CIA translator stood by and translated for him.

With such an important matter, Chen Jiaju naturally could not make the decision on his own.

After all, he was only a person seconded by the CIA and, strictly speaking, did not belong to the CIA, so he said directly, "I can only agree if I contact my superior in Hong Kong."

The translator was just about to speak when the Admiral said directly, "We have already contacted them! They have already authorized you to participate in this operation."

This guy even went so far as to produce the authorization letter from Biao Shu and handed it to Chen Jiaju.

Chen Jiaju took one look and immediately got angry!

That old guy Biao Shu clearly had no good intentions! This thing had been prepared long ago.

"Then... fine!" Chen Jiaju said listlessly.

The Admiral smiled and said, "Of course, you are not being sent to Australia alone. There are also our friends, Mr. Chen's subordinates at Guojun Security Company, who can assist you in completing the mission."

Hearing this, the tension on Chen Jiaju's face visibly relaxed.

He had seen the strength of Chen Jiajun's subordinates with his own eyes; even the drug lords of the Golden Triangle were dealt with by his men in a few swift moves.

No matter how powerful these arms dealers were, could they really turn the world upside down? After clarifying the matter, the Admiral turned and left, leaving Colonel Kade and Chen Jiajun behind.

This trip to Australia clearly required some preparation, so Colonel Kade let the two of them rest for a moment while he went to make arrangements.

After Colonel Kade left, Chen Jiaju couldn't help but ask, "Mr. Chen, you..."

But before Chen Jiaju could finish his sentence, Chen Jiajun interrupted him directly and used the tea on the table to write a few words: "Walls have ears," "We don't know each other"! Chen Jiaju was stunned. Wasn't Chen Jiajun cooperating with the Soviet military? Why was he being so careful?

However, since Chen Jiajun felt this was not the place to talk, he kept his mouth shut.

Afterwards, Chen Jiajun took out a file and introduced it to Chen Jiaju: "Xu Jie, graduated from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology with a master's degree in nuclear physics! Shortly after graduation, he joined the CIA with the mission of stealing the formula for Soviet nuclear materials! For many years, he has been the FSB's number one wanted criminal!"

"Your next task is to follow our Guojun Security Company and enter Australia under the guise of conducting business. I have already handled your documents: special instructor for Guojun Security Company!"

Chen Jiaju said in surprise, "Going through official channels?"

Chen Jiajun smiled faintly, "Why not? We have cooperated with many countries!"

After explaining the situation, Colonel Kade came over, having already prepared a private jet for Chen Jiajun and Chen Jiaju to go to Australia.

Seeing the huge private airliner, Chen Jiaju couldn't help but look envious.

This was much more comfortable than the economy class he had taken to Ukraine.

However, the conversation between Chen Jiajun and Colonel Kade that followed surprised him even more.

Colonel Kade smiled and said, "From today on, this Tu-154 belongs to you, Mr. Chen!"

Chen Jiajun was also quite surprised by Colonel Kade's grand gesture: "Colonel Kade, this is?"

Kade smiled and said, "This counts as one of your rewards. I don't think you, Mr. Chen, would be short of money, right?"

Chen Jiajun did not decline, as he did indeed need a private jet now.

He had originally wanted to buy a Boeing 747, because the Tu-154 was inferior to the Boeing in terms of economy, airworthiness, and safety.

But now that someone was giving it away for free, why not take it?

So Chen Jiajun did not refuse and took the documents regarding the private jet directly from Colonel Kade's hands.

"I have already arranged for hotels and similar services for you in Australia; you can just check in when you arrive!" Colonel Kade said with a smile.

After boarding the plane, Chen Jiajun ignored Chen Jiaju the whole way, which made Chen Jiaju anxious and restless.

Once they successfully entered Australia and checked into the hotel.

Chen Jiajun had his men turn the music up to the maximum volume, then signaled for Chen Jiaju to lean in. Since there was no technology yet to eliminate background noise while keeping only human voices, Chen Jiajun wasn't afraid of being bugged and said directly to Chen Jiaju, "Our mission this time has problems!"

"Huh?" Chen Jiaju widened his eyes and looked at Chen Jiajun: "What exactly is going on?"

Chen Jiajun lit a cigar and said faintly, "I don't know the specifics, but this Colonel Kade definitely has issues! Do you know why I got dragged into this? It was this old guy's doing; he seems to want to muddy the waters!"

"But... why would he do that?" Chen Jiaju said with a confused look.

Chen Jiajun rolled his eyes and said, "If I knew, would I still be here wasting my breath with you? Listen, I can guarantee that you are covered in bugs right now, but don't alert the enemy. My people will protect your safety from the shadows; you just follow his instructions and go contact Xu Jie's sister!"

"And what about you?" Chen Jiaju asked hurriedly.

He is now like a grasshopper on the same rope as Chen Jiajun; compared to those Gweilo from the Soviet Union, he would rather trust Chen Jiajun.

After finishing the plan with Chen Jiaju, Chen Jiajun did not pay any more attention to him.

Instead, taking advantage of the time spent outside, he arrived at a secret Safe House.

This was a Safe House that Silva had prepared long ago, utilizing many of his connections to receive Chen Jiajun.

Back when they were in Ukraine, Silva already knew that Chen Jiajun was being monitored.

Although Chen Jiajun could have completely broken through with Dumu and the young demon, since he had already arrived here, Chen Jiajun felt it was still necessary to clearly understand the ins and outs of this matter.

Otherwise, he would not dare to continue trading with Keziluofu with peace of mind.

It was fine not to probe, but once he did, he really saw quite a few problems.

First of all, this superior of Keziluofu, Colonel Kade, definitely has a problem. As for whether Keziluofu has no problems, that matter still requires a specific investigation.

Another point is that Chen Jiajun is currently extremely annoyed.

Although being monitored was something he volunteered for, he still felt offended.

Never mind that he is just a colonel from a small Security Committee; if pushed too far, he would directly make this guy die in a foreign land!

After accepting a full-body scan from the Information Officer, he soon found quite a few wiretaps and trackers among small items like the lining of his clothes, the buttons on his sleeves, and the brooch on his collar.

"Boss, they would even know the sound of you passing gas!" the Information Officer said with a smile: "I estimate that Chen Jiaju's side is about the same as yours!"

Chen Jiajun said with an ugly expression: "To dare to play tricks on me during our first cooperation, it seems I need to teach this Colonel Kade a lesson! Has the matter I asked Silva to investigate been cleared up?"

"Mr. Silva has already gone to investigate; I believe there will be results very soon," the subordinate said with a smile.

Chen Jiajun said with some surprise: "Results very soon? Since when has Silva's efficiency been this high?"

The Information Officer chuckled and said: "It seems he used some previous methods to make contact with a spy organization!"

"A spy organization?" Chen Jiajun immediately became interested: "What spy organization, tell me about it?"

"I don't know the specific situation either," the Information Officer thought for a moment and said: "It seems those guys are called the Syndicate!"

On the other side, in an apartment in Australia.

The room was filled with all kinds of instruments; one look and you could tell this stuff shouldn't be in a normal resident's home.

This is an FSB contact point, and the person in charge of this contact point is precisely Colonel Kade.

"What, you're saying that the signal disappeared right after that Chen Jiajun went out?" Kade asked his subordinate.

The subordinate nodded: "He must have entered a place that can shield signals, perhaps a basement, or perhaps..."

"Hmph, I knew this kid wouldn't be that easy to deal with!" Kade said coldly: "He is helping the Soviet Union entirely because he wants to quickly resume trading with Keziluofu! What about Chen Jiaju's side?"

The subordinate said: "Chen Jiaju's signal is very stable, and he is currently making contact with Xu Jie's younger sister!"

"Very good, once Xu Jie is lured out, wipe them all out!" Kade said coldly, "I don't want anyone else to know about my opportunity."

"Understood, Colonel!"

At this moment, Chen Jiaju did not know that after he completed his mission, what awaited him was his doom.

He came to the aquarium alone, found the front desk, and said: "Excuse me, I'm here to see Xu Anni!"

"Anni?" The front desk clerk swiped something casually and said: "She is currently performing in the water."

In an aquarium, there are usually performances where trainers interact with deep-sea animals.

And there are quite a few people who come to watch this kind of performance; this is also considered a means of attracting tourists.

After Xu Anni finished her performance, Chen Jiaju went straight up to her and said to Xu Anni: "I am your brother's sworn brother!"

Xu Anni said with some surprise: "Has he returned?"

"Has he not?" Chen Jiaju was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly changed his words: "Actually, I'm not too sure either. He told me you work here, and since I was passing through here on vacation, I came to see you by the way!"

Xu Anni immediately nodded in thanks: "Thank you, but I can't stay too long; my father is currently hospitalized!"

Chen Jiaju immediately took advantage of the situation and said to Xu Anni: "I have never met Xu Jie's father; as a junior, can I go see him?"

Xu Anni did not suspect Chen Jiaju's motives and agreed very readily: "No problem, you go wait for me outside first; I'll come out after I change my clothes!"

Chen Jiaju nodded, and after Xu Anni left, he immediately dialed Colonel Kade's phone: "I'm very lucky today; it was easy to find his sister! Now I'm going to the hospital to see his father!"

"Excellent, stay in touch!" Colonel Kade said immediately.

Although Chen Jiaju felt some doubt in his heart as to why Colonel Kade was so excited.

But now he didn't have many choices and could only see this matter through to the end.

Walking to the entrance, Xu Anni had just finished changing her clothes and came out, but at this moment the front desk called out to her: "Anni, there is a package for you!"

Xu Anni didn't pay much attention, just saying she would come back to get it later. (End of chapter)
