Chapter 527: Light and Shadow
"Why are you here?" An Yinan asked.
At the mention of this, Yun Fei became even angrier; military surveillance had been set up here, and because it involved classified matters, only the offices and sleeping quarters were without surveillance, so when he saw An Yinan putting herself in danger, he wished he could have arrived at the scene immediately.
And yet, this girl still asked why he was here?
"Do I not have to come to collect your corpse?" Yun Fei said fiercely.
Yun Fei, Commander-in-Chief of the Kyoto General District.
Among the military, who didn't know him?
But the person seen now looked just like an elder concerned for their own child.
"It's not that serious!" An Yinan was caught between laughter and tears.
He had even mentioned collecting her corpse; she must have really angered this man!
Yun Fei looked at the people who had been subdued at the scene, "Take them away."
"Yes!" In an instant, the entire battlefield was cleared.
An Yinan silently stepped back.
Jiang Zhen walked to Yun Fei's side, and the two of them said something to each other.
Chen Xun came over nervously, "Are you injured?"
An Yinan shook her head, "I'm fine, don't you know that?"
When the shadow scouted inside, An Yinan and Chen Xun had already set this plan, and were waiting for this moment to lure the enemy into the trap.
The day they truly broke into the interior was the day they would be captured.
Unexpectedly, this day had been a long time coming.
Even knowing that, he was still terrified.
She was a woman, a pregnant woman, in the most fragile early stage of pregnancy; if not for her assurances to him, he would never have agreed to this plan.
"But you didn't say you would put yourself in danger." Chen Xun chewed on the words "put yourself in danger," looking at An Yinan with an expression of disapproval.
This was the first time he had shown her this expression.
An Yinan thought about it; it seemed she was in the wrong.
Initially, to get Chen Xun to agree, she had only mentioned using her Silver Needle and pebbles, and had guaranteed her own safety.
But...
This was an accident, wasn't it...
"It's all their fault for insisting on using me as the opening!" An Yinan pouted, wearing a fawning expression.
This group of people was all concerned for her safety; what they cared about wasn't whether she took action or not, but that they were lingering in fear, afraid that something would happen to her.
Delun, who hadn't been withdrawn yet, widened his eyes and wailed in his heart: Does your conscience not hurt?
Who was it that told him to pay attention in the first place!
Who was it that didn't go into the room but insisted on being the bait outside?
She had clearly acted as the bait, yet she still insisted on blaming the fish for biting the hook?
Are you even human?
Delun's thoughts could only be kept in his heart; after all, his acupoints were sealed, and let alone moving his mouth, he couldn't move a single thing on his body except his eyes.
Chen Xun looked at her, truly unable to bring himself to reprimand her.
"Nan Nan, you are not alone now; you have two babies in your belly, and you have family and friends. Before you do anything, can you think about these people?"
"If something happened to you, what would you have me do?"
The reproach in Chen Xun's eyes had vanished, replaced only by worry, but it was precisely this state of his that made An Yinan feel even worse inside.
She loved her children, and although she had used herself as bait, she could guarantee her own safety.
Even if some accident occurred, at worst, she could perform a vanishing act.
Since Light and Shadow from Eagle Country could appear, her performing a vanishing act seemed justifiable, right?
It should... be okay, right?
Now she was only thinking about it, but at the time, she had no other choice.
The existence of Light and Shadow exceeded some physical understanding, but in the final analysis, it was a process of deceiving the eyes to achieve one's ultimate goal.
"I'll be careful in the future!" An Yinan said.
Chen Xun didn't speak, but instead hugged her.
"Remember your words."
"Oh!" she replied softly.
Everyone went to the office.
Yun Fei looked at Chen Xun, "Now that a large number of people have been captured, we have also suffered casualties; now that other countries dare not send people over, the security here remains the top priority."
Chen Xun immediately saluted, "Yes."
"Wang Qing, thank you for your hard work with Nan Nan." Yun Fei looked at Wang Qing; he naturally knew what kind of temperament Nan Nan had, and that she had a reckless attitude when it came to carrying out missions.
Even though Wang Qing only looked after her, it was likely more exhausting than seeing patients in the hospital all day.
"Yes!" Wang Qing accepted the order first, then shook his head helplessly, "It's what I should do."
If not for the heavy resentment in his tone, everyone would have thought it was a normal statement.
What a pity...
An Yinan saw the daggers her eldest uncle was shooting at her, and she felt somewhat helpless.
Wasn't she being quite obedient?
Group Leader Wang was bad-mouthing her!
As for the project progress, Yun Fei did not participate; he was only responsible for security, while the project's progress was the responsibility of Chief Jiang.
"The two of you stay, everyone else go out and get busy."
Yun Fei pointed at An Yinan and Chen Xun; the others immediately saluted and exited the office in an orderly fashion.
Yun Hua patted her chest; the things that had happened this morning felt just like a dream.
"Tell me what happened," Yun Fei said helplessly as he looked at the two of them.
Chen Xun began to speak, "Previously, someone infiltrated the interior, and none of our external security detected it."
His first sentence made Yun Fei frown.
"Shadow?"
Shadow is not a secret in Eagle Country; he is a member of the Royal Combat Team of Eagle Country, and his presence can be found in the theft of classified documents from various countries; the bounty for his capture has long reached twenty million US dollars.
It was just unexpected that he would get involved in this project.
Shadow's identity and whereabouts have always been erratic; no one knows where he is, nor does anyone know what he will do next.
Even within Eagle Country, they are not clear about it.
They have given him complete freedom.
But is a project's data worth having so many people come in?
"I determined it was him based on his physique and behavioral patterns."
"Especially since the number of people who can make Delun change his mind and change his actions can be counted on one hand."
"And the other two are both in Eagle Country, with no information about them coming to Huaxia, so it can only be this erratic shadow."
Chen Xun looked at An Yinan's sleepy appearance and felt a slight worry.
Since entering the project, Nan Nan has had a fixed rest time of six hours every day; the rest of the time, she is constantly translating data, and she needs a large amount of time to rest.
"And then?" Yun Fei also saw An Yinan's state; if it were any other time, he would definitely have let her leave first, but today he could not.
This girl's courage is growing larger and larger.
If he continues to indulge her like this, he really does not know what might happen.
They cannot accept the consequences of losing her.
"Later, after discussing it with Nan Nan, we set up this trap to passively lure the enemy into the urn," Chen Xun said.
"Shadow excels at outdoor combat, while Delun excels at setting up contingencies."
He often studies the methods of the elite soldiers on the world's wanted lists, and he also studies everyone's habits.
What's more, he and Delun have been clashing for many years.
Although Shadow is mysterious, he has taken action too many times, leaving behind too much data available for study.
