Chapter 1681: Chapter 845: Absolutely Not (2)

Chen Lin was furious; this sudden mistrust made her very uncomfortable.

"We know all about these things, but please don’t worry, we must follow routine procedures. After all, this is to care for every warrior. Please don’t dwell on it. Besides, your mother has been kidnapped, and rushing over with this mindset will only cause chaos. This is our routine. Please trust us."

"What kind of routine is that! I’m telling you, if you don’t let me participate this time, I won’t let it go!"

Just then, the new imaging equipment was turned on.

Lin Beichen stood there.

"What are you arguing about? Do you think I don’t want you to continue fighting, or want to keep you from saving your mother? But let me tell you, the decision is final. It’s also protection from your superiors, understand? Don’t worry about so much, I’ll help you solve this problem."

The entire team also appeared on the screen.

"Chen Lin, rest assured, we’re all comrades in battle. Your mother is everyone’s mother here; we definitely won’t let anything happen to her."

This was a makeshift command center, and everyone was on high alert, especially Lin Beichen, who had become the backbone of the group.

In the grand rescue operation at the resort last time, he had already shone brightly. This time, he again organized numerous personnel to gather here, with special forces teams from all over being dispatched here.

The commander seated in charge is still the same person as last time.

"Lin Beichen, proceed as you see fit, I’ll handle logistics. At least let those fools understand that they picked the wrong place to cause trouble."

This time, the leader was determined to show no mercy. Though Black Cat had once been his long-time rival, this incident involved the security of the entire city, and he was resolved not to let Black Cat escape no matter what.

"Alright! But I have one condition!"

Lin Beichen finally had the opportunity to speak.

"Please speak!"

"Chen Lin is my trusted subordinate. I don’t care about your scrutiny, but her mother is among those trapped inside, and I must have her cooperate with me in action!"

Lin Beichen grew more emotional as he spoke.

At the same time, Black Cat and Chen Feifei were in a heated argument.

"I don’t care what you’re thinking, Chen Feifei, listen up, you’re now under my command. Don’t think being a chairman here means you can order me around."

"I don’t care what you think; this is Huaxia, where people are diligent and brave, unafraid of evil forces. You would best surrender." Chen Feifei remained fearless.

"Surrender? You want me to get captured as soon as I arrive here? Why would I hire these armed personnel, to play with you?

Let me tell you, these people have been your bodyguards for years. If something really happens, you’re implicated too.

And your daughter, can she live peacefully in the military?"

I never thought my daughter would stand on the opposite side of me."

It turns out, Chen Lin is actually the daughter of Chen Feifei and Black Cat.

For years, Chen Feifei refused to publicly disclose this secret, fearing it was too disgraceful, and worried she might lose her daughter’s trust.

But now, Black Cat’s appearance made her very anxious, worried that her years of effort might be wasted.

"Black Cat, I warn you, don’t you dare target Chen Lin. If you harm her, we’ll go down together."

"Oh, say ’go down together’ again? Everybody knows that car your daughter drives was bought with my money. If this was exposed, do you think she can stay in the military? Haha, truly naive."

Chen Feifei knew she’d boarded a pirate ship and found it hard to extricate herself. Now, she only hoped that her daughter could lead a happy life.

At that moment, personnel from relevant departments quickly investigated and brought some information.

"Everything has been clarified. When Chen Feifei started her company, she was already pregnant but never announced it publicly. Only when the company prospered did she announce her pregnancy."

Even more incredible, the company suddenly became wealthy within a month of its establishment, which was clearly illogical.

Many people at the time said Chen Feifei had foreign capital injected into it, which is why the company thrived, although she consistently denied it.

The unusually fast growth of this company made people somewhat uneasy. But under Chen Feifei’s efforts, the company’s business steadily developed without anomalies.

Over the years, Chen Feifei’s capabilities were witnessed by all, and people gradually forgot about this matter, blinded by the job opportunities and dividends she brought.

"Given this context, there’s nothing left to say, which means Chen Lin truly wasn’t aware."

"Exactly, I’m wondering why Chen Feifei would send her daughter to the military and never inquire; could it be she wanted a backup plan?"

The commander was slightly puzzled.

"Mr. Commander, shouldn’t we be focusing on the hostages inside?

Not to mention Chen Feifei is among them. Everything should be clarified after this event ends. Also, I reiterate my request to reinstate my squad leader."

Chen Bin felt a bit difficult because this concerned national and military safety, and he dared not make decisions on his own.

"I’ll report to the higher-up department. Personally, I think Chen Lin must be fine."

Chen Bin immediately phoned higher-ups, as the longer this dragged on, the greater the harm.

"I stake my career on this; no matter what happens, I trust there won’t be issues. If trouble arises, I’ll bear all consequences."

With Chen Bin’s statement, upper management had no choice; staking his future was unprecedented.

On the other side, the situation had changed. At this point, investigators hadn’t left.

"Chen Lin, higher leadership has permitted you to join this operation."

"Really?"

Chen Lin was overjoyed.

"However, you’re only participating in the operation. You still need to undergo organizational investigation upon returning."

"It doesn’t matter, as long as I have enough time. After all, she’s my mother. Regardless of past mistakes, she must be rescued first."

A helicopter was ready at the entrance, initially planned to carry some people to the destination.

Chen Lin quickly prepared her gear, then boarded the helicopter and set off.

"Alright, everyone, the captain’s issue is resolved, there’s nothing more to say.

I’ll explain: based on my assessment, infiltrating the target territory requires everyone to find a breakthrough in the thermal imaging system.

It’s evident that this company has a passage leading backward. We must assign people to guard that place."

Lin Beichen looked at Yu Feng with trust.

"Yu Feng, now isn’t the time to hesitate; remember, you’re our team’s strategist.

Command the team, I’ll issue new instructions and coordinate with you.

Remember, maintain contact at all times; this is also a battle!"

"Yes!"

Yu Feng was thrilled; commanding combat was his dream for years, and this time he could finally showcase skills in practice.

"We must certainly breach from the front since the narrow passage may pose numerous problems I even consider a direct assault."

"Direct assault?"

The commander was worried after hearing this.

"You must think clearly! Those are vicious desperados; if we really breach forcefully, we will undoubtedly suffer significant losses, which is not what I want to see!"

The commander was concerned that if a problem arose, he would be unable to account for it to superiors.

"This is also a battle; this is what the instructor taught me.

So there will definitely be sacrifices, but I’ll try my best to ensure everyone’s safety. As the commander, I won’t let my team suffer unnecessary losses; please rest assured!"

They first determined the number of people inside, then anticipated the various troubles combat might bring, along with corresponding avoidance methods.

Over there, Black Cat was still negotiating with Chen Feifei.

"Chen Feifei, I don’t care what you did before, our relationship could’ve been straightforward.

But don’t forget, what’s your status now?

You’re just a woman, and you pledge loyalty to our organization. I now demand you hand over all data from this laboratory, then I can take you to continue living an ordinary life with your daughter."

"You!"
