While I am in Reality, I Can Enter the Singularity Universe

103: Chapter 103: Director Sun’s Mysterious Identity! The Answer to the Question!Director An Lei was furious and unwilling.

But the moment he thought of Luo Qi, he could only grab the paper ball with a gloomy expression and open it.

At the same time, he also wanted to see what kind of information the Special Higher Police wanted to obtain from him, given that they had activated so many sleeper agents and paid such a high price.

Was it a secret from the high-level officials in Yanjing?

Or the East’s plans regarding the threat from the [Earth Federation]?

The internal personnel structure of the Super-Duty Bureau?

Or... something else?

Suddenly, a guess sprouted from the bottom of his heart. Could these guys have caught a scent of that place?

As the paper ball unfolded, the tiny line of handwriting on it made Director An Lei’s pupils dilate in shock!!

[The Spiritual Energy Revival in Xiangnan is suspected to have man-made factors.]

What shocked him, besides the content, was the handwriting of the small text!

The handwriting was somewhat scrawled, but Director An Lei recognized it at a glance—it was clearly the handwriting of his former superior, ”Director Sun” of the Xuancheng City Police Bureau in Anwan Province!

”Director Sun is one of your people!?”

Director An Lei’s eyes were gloomy to the extreme. He crumpled the paper ball in his palm and cast his gaze back toward the man in the baseball cap, who was slumped on the green emergency walkway.

”No, he is not one of our people.”

The man in the baseball cap shook his head, a strange smile hanging on the corner of his mouth,

”His father was a small sleeper agent that my Special Higher Police secretly left in the East during the Late Stage of World War II.”

”People die and the line breaks; we originally thought there was no need to activate it again. But by investigating your identity, we followed the vine to find him.”

”At first, he didn’t believe his father could be a sleeper agent for the Empire.”

”But when we produced his father’s former identification, he was silent for a long time.”

”Eventually, he agreed to help us once, on the condition that we never reveal the true identity of his long-deceased father.”

The man in the baseball cap sat up a little straighter to make himself more comfortable, then changed the subject,

”However, rest assured, your little girlfriend’s situation has nothing to do with him.”

”The deal we made with him is exactly that sentence on the note.”

”Director An, as long as you tell me the answer to that sentence, my Special Higher Police will keep our word and immediately withdraw our personnel from Xuancheng City, and your little girlfriend will be able to return home safely.”

”...”

The murderous intent on Director An Lei’s face gradually subsided, and his expression was somewhat silent.

The commotion here caught the attention of the security guard on duty in the underground parking garage.

Seeing the large pool of scarlet blood on the ground from afar, the security guard on duty was terrified!

He immediately took out his walkie-talkie and reported the incident to the street patrol police!

”Who is there?”

”What are you two doing?”

”Do not attempt to flee, please come with us to the police station!”

The patrol police arrived, and seeing the scene from afar, they professionally drew their handguns and shouted loudly as they ran over quickly.

Buzz, buzz, buzz.

Director An Lei’s contemplation was interrupted. Just as he was about to turn around, his phone in his pocket vibrated slightly.

He took it out and looked; his heart tightened. After a few breaths, he pressed the answer button,

”...Hello, Grandfather...”

Before Director An Lei could finish his sentence, he heard a hint of anxiety mixed in the old voice on the other end,

”Xiao Lei, the security department just reported that two teams of trained, unknown personnel shot the bodyguards and kidnapped Luo Qi!

The incident happened right near the Xuancheng City Police Bureau, and I am heading there now!

Think of a way quickly, see if you can find the identity of the perpetrators. You can have whatever you want, but please, do not let them harm my granddaughter!”

The person calling was none other than Little Princess’s grandfather, ”Elder Chen.”

Director An Lei’s lips moved, trying his best to keep his voice steady,

”Grandfather... this matter is somewhat complicated and involves the rivalry of many forces. I just received the news and am dealing with it now.”

”The rivalry of many forces...?”

Who was Elder Chen? He had experienced more in his life than many young people had eaten salt.

The news of his granddaughter being kidnapped had made him lose his composure, but hearing Director An Lei’s words, he instantly understood something.

The arm holding his cane was trembling slightly as he sat back down on the sofa in the hall.

Elder Chen held back tears in his eyes and spoke earnestly to Director An Lei:

”Xiao Lei, you handle it.”

”Grandfather is old, and I have lived enough in this life. As for Luo Qi, Grandfather just wants her to be safe and healthy...

If you really encounter a difficult choice, just follow your heart...”

Elder Chen had already guessed the mastermind behind this kidnapping case.

The East had always been strictly controlled, with civilian gun bans, so there were very few kidnapping cases, let alone ones involving top-tier bodyguards.

Yet, in the end, they had still succeeded.

This could only mean one thing: this was a premeditated, planned, and targeted event!

Who could have such great power?

Combined with recent major events, it could only be foreign forces!

And the country that was most familiar with the East and had the most sleeper agents remaining was undoubtedly that island nation, small in area, which had for generations craved a vast and fertile land!

The phone hung up, and Elder Chen sat on the sofa, tears streaming down his face.

Suddenly, his cloudy eyes shot out two beams of bone-deep killing intent, and he muttered:

”You had better pray that you don’t hurt a single hair on Luo Qi, or I will risk my old life to sink your tiny patch of land!!”

”Elder Chen, the security department just sent news that the Special Higher Police have activated a large number of sleeper agents within the East...

The kidnapper of the Young Miss is suspected to be the Special Higher Police...

I have already ordered the Xuancheng armed forces and the Anwan garrison to surround the kidnapping site...”

...

Yanjing, underground parking garage.

When the street patrol police were running quickly towards this side, his walkie-talkie suddenly rang,

”Other departments are handling it there; you don’t need to go over.”

”Received!”

The young patrol officer stopped, holstered his dark handgun, pressed the side button of the walkie-talkie, and replied.

Immediately after, he glanced at the green emergency walkway with a puzzled face, then stopped lingering and turned to leave with a rigid posture.

”Director An, time waits for no one. It is just a simple answer for you, why hesitate?”

Seeing Director An Lei hang up the phone, the man in the baseball cap urged.

Their Special Higher Police had paid a huge price this time; if they didn’t get the answer they wanted, it would be too much of a failure.

The Cabinet and His Majesty the Emperor would likely be furious because of this.

Recently, the Earth Federation was about to use various methods against the East, and the value of each sleeper agent was immeasurable.

At such a critical moment, the Special Higher Police still carried out the kidnapping operation.

From this, one could see the importance the headquarters placed on the question on the note.

”Hoo...”

Director An Lei took a deep breath and looked gloomily at the man in the baseball cap,

”I can tell you the answer, but your Special Higher Police must remember, if Luo Qi suffers even a scratch... I will definitely not let your island nation off! I mean what I say!”

The extraordinary energy inside Director An Lei dissipated, seemingly shrouding the surroundings in a Domain field. The man in the baseball cap shuddered all over, feeling his Soul involuntarily terrified.

”Director An, rest assured, we only want the answer and will not harm your girlfriend in the slightest.”

Hearing the genuine assurance, Director An Lei said in a deep voice:

”The Spiritual Energy Revival in Xiangnan does indeed have man-made factors, but I am not clear on the specifics.”

”Those who know the truth are tight-lipped and secretive, regarding it as more important than their own lives, fearing they might touch upon some unknown taboo.”

What Director An Lei knew was naturally not so shallow. Although he did not know the ultimate secret, besides his identity as the Director of the Super-Duty Bureau, he also had the status of a [Destined One].

Therefore, he had some personal speculations regarding the source of the Spiritual Energy Revival.

He would not reveal any of these secrets to the outside world. Sometimes, being muddled is living more freely and easily; knowing more is not necessarily a good thing.

The man in the baseball cap pulled a peanut-sized object from his cuff and shook it at Director An Lei,

”Director An, our on-site conversation is being recorded and uploaded in real-time by a special micro-device.

You have kept your promise. I expect that in two minutes, your girlfriend will walk out of the crime scene.”

After the man in the baseball cap finished speaking, he slumped against the wall with a triumphant smile on his lips.

For the future of the Empire, he did not care at all about his own impending death.

Director An Lei did not leave; instead, he stood in place with icy eyes, waiting for the news to arrive.
