Spy Family

Wang Chenhuan is the deputy director of the Interstellar Security Bureau of the King of Kings and the leader in charge of intelligence work. He is well-known in the spy circle and is on par with the old director, but no one dares to say that they really understand him.

His resume is clear, and his appearance is no secret, but everything is so simple that only his skeleton is left, and not even his most superficial thoughts are revealed.

It was such a person who had never left his own planet in at least the past ten years. He actually came to Zhai King, where relations were tense, and appeared opposite another intelligence agency.

When Lu Linbei walked towards the room at the end of the fifth floor of the diplomatic apartment, he felt that if he said that he was not his third uncle's "confidant" in the future, he might feel guilty, but he couldn't admit it confidently.

Perhaps this is the mentality that Uncle San wants his subordinates to have.

Lu Linbei knocked on the door and stepped back so that the people in the room could see him clearly through the door mirror.

The door opened, revealing a short old man, wearing an old-fashioned formal suit. He looked like an office worker who had worked hard for many years and finally retired. He decided to travel to extraterrestrials, unaware of how out of touch with the times he was.

Lu Linbei was stunned for a while before he realized that this person was indeed Wang Chenwen, at least his appearance matched him.

"Come in." Wang Chenwan said with a smile, his voice as soft as a waiter in a high-end restaurant.

The rooms in the diplomatic apartment are all relatively small, and this one is no exception. Wang Chenhuan slightly modified the interior layout, moved the bed, and placed a table and chairs in the free space, facing the window. When Lu Linbei sat down, he glanced outside. After taking a quick look, I could indeed see a corner of the Emergency Department.

"Mr. Lu is different from what I imagined." Wang Chenwen poured two cups of tea himself, "I'm very sorry. I'm quitting all sugary and alcoholic drinks, so I can only ask you to drink this with me."

"I like drinking tea." Lu Linbei took a sip, "I am such a nobody, Deputy Director Wang also wants to investigate in advance?"

"Mr. Lu was once the heir of the Eighth Planet. Any intelligence agency will do some investigation." Wang Chenhuan picked up the small tea cup with both hands. An old man and a young man sat in front of the window and talked, like a pair of friends who have been together for the past year.

Lu Linbei smiled. The "successor" was a plan of Mei Qianzhong's, and it was normal for him to attract attention from the outside world.

"I hope I didn't disappoint Deputy Director Wang."

"How could it be? Zhai Wangxing's Mei family often surprises me, and Mr. Lu is one of them. What surprises me is that the Mei family recruited you into the emergency department so late, but you made such a huge impact in such a short period of time. score."

“Just happened to be on the right team.”

"Haha, yes, there must be a team to solve all aspects of the problem. Intelligence is a strange industry. We need to dig deep enough, get close enough to the enemy, and hide our whereabouts. The goals we want to achieve usually differ from the means. Going in the opposite direction, we have to rely on the help of other people and other institutions, but these people and institutions often do not meet our needs - few people can understand this contradiction and accurately grasp the balance when they first enter the industry, Mr. Lu done."

Lu Linbei felt that being more modest would be a bit too fake, so he listened with a smile and sipped tea, but he was thinking in his heart that Wang Chenhun was either too good at talking, or he was an investigator who had really put in the effort to understand the enemy. If he was Of the latter, he knew a little too much.

"Deputy Director Litao and I are old friends. He has been teaching all these years, and I have been trapped by work and have no contact with him anymore. Fortunately, when we reconnected, we did not forget the friendship we had when we were young."

Wang Chenyun stood up and poured tea again, "What does Deputy Director Litao want to know? Mr. Lu can ask."

Lu Linbei shook his head, "Third Uncle's only order is for me to come over and listen to what Deputy Director Wang has to say."

"He is still so cautious." Wang Chenhuan fell into silence, his eyes were lowered, and there was a bit of fatigue in the bags under his eyes. After a long time, he continued: "I actually have nothing to say."

Lu Linbei said nothing. Later, he would relay every word, every action and expression of the other party to his third uncle as accurately as possible. This required patient observation rather than conversation and speculation.

"But now that I'm here, I have to say something. He is a demon who has not yet grown up. I personally released him and provided him with nutrients for a long time in an attempt to exchange for the power of the demon. I have no idea about this. What can be defended, everyone will make many mistakes in their life, but few of them will be as far-reaching as mine, far beyond my expectations."

"Initially, we cooperated happily. He has some strange technologies. Although the origin is unknown and there are many loopholes, they are very worthy of study. I taught him how to behave - the word 'teaching' is a bit exaggerated, because he is arrogant and arrogant. I don’t admit that anyone is better than him in any aspect. Most of the time, I am ‘asking for advice’ and he will answer it, and the answer will be imprinted in his mind.”

"I thought I had him under complete control, so I ignored the obvious signs that he was growing. This is not entirely my fault. The robot body he most often uses is that of a young man, which has not changed for many years. In my eyes, he has always been a child."

"About five years ago, or maybe earlier, he began to escape my control and secretly created spare bodies on various planets, but I didn't know anything about it. March 20, 299 Standard Era On the 4th, I remember this date very clearly. From that morning on, I could no longer contact him. It was only a few hours later that I realized that he had escaped."

"I was very surprised because he never showed any dissatisfaction. We got along very happily. The night before, he even said that he would build a perfect body for me to prevent me from continuing to age."

"On the one hand, I searched for his whereabouts everywhere, trying to restore contact, and on the other hand, I looked for loopholes. It was difficult to find him, but it was easy to find loopholes. In my organization, someone betrayed and quietly opened a gap for him. He was arrested. The traitor committed suicide before, but I know who he was serving."

"The Uranian intelligence agency has long known of his existence and has stolen a large amount of top-secret information. This was my second mistake, which was more fatal and almost ruined my life. For a long time, I was busy fixing the loopholes , concealing this mistake downwards and upwards. I successfully kept my position, but lost the best opportunity to retrieve him."

It seemed that Wang Chenwan should explain more, but suddenly decided to end it, "That's all I want to say."

Lu Linbei had finished the tea, but still held the tea cup without putting it down, and said, "Can I ask a few questions on my own behalf?"

"Of course, I have never regarded Mr. Lu as a mere messenger. I admire and need your judgment."

"Deputy Director Wang always says 'him' - please forgive me for asking knowingly, who is 'him'?"

"Zhao Didian is one of the many names he picked up after he escaped. In the name of King Star, he has always called himself -" Wang Chenwan took out a piece of paper with two words written on it:

Guihai.

"According to the ancient timekeeping method, this is the end of the heavenly stems and earthly branches, and it is also his only real name." Wang Chenwan explained.

"He escaped in March 2099, but on Zhai Wang, a group of extremists who were bewitched by him were arrested in 298." Lu Linbei continued to express his doubts.

"Recruiting extremists is my plan. It started in 296. The targets are all over the seven planets, including the King of Kings. I want to test his strength in avatars. The effect is very good, but it may be a bit too good." Wang Chenhun smiled without any embarrassment.

"Deputy Director Wang recruited a second group of extremists in Zhai Wangxing?"

"After Lin Weifeng and others were arrested, I ended this plan everywhere, not just Zhai Wangxing. I didn't expect that this plan was still going on, and it was completely out of my control. When I found out, It’s too late. It’s Uranus again, they got enough information to recreate the avatar.”

"Don't you need Guihai's help?"

"need."

"There was no mention of that in his confession."

Wang Chenhuan smiled, "He didn't lie, because Uranus had never found him or established contact with him. They recreated the virtual character and put it into the network, which quickly attracted his attention. He was a child, alone outside. When wandering, when you encounter a familiar toy or familiar food, you will naturally take it in your hand without hesitation, without even thinking about who handed it to you."

"Gui Hai confessed that he was looking for a 'balanced consciousness'."

"He has no memory of the first half of his life, but he retains this instinct."

"After being together for thirty years, has Deputy Director Wang found a 'balanced consciousness' for him?"

Wang Chenwan was silent again, not noticing that his cup was empty, "I would rather never mention this matter, but since you asked, I have to answer. After all, I came here with sincerity. For this so-called' Balanced Consciousness', we - Hey, why should we deceive ourselves? I have made many attempts, and more than ten people have been maimed, and three people... lost their lives. He is the devil, and I am the devil's accomplice. I was completely fascinated by him at that time. When I did those things, I didn’t feel any guilt. Instead, I thought I was doing good things. It’s like a doctor who wants to cure a certain patient so much that he is even willing to sacrifice the lives of other patients.”

"I don't think there is such a doctor." Lu Linbei said.

Wang Chen smiled faintly, still refusing to argue, "Five years ago, I stopped all attempts. I guess this was one of the reasons why he ran away."

"Guihai never used the word 'escape' in his confession."

"That's because he will not admit that he has been 'imprisoned', nor will he admit that someone opened a gap for him. He will definitely say that he can go wherever he wants."

Lu Linbei turned to look at the Emergency Department Building and put down his tea cup, "Deputy Director Wang, don't you want to talk about Ming Wang Xing's 'Isolated Island Plan'?"

Wang Chen shook his head, "I'm not here to stop the war. I'm not qualified to talk about what Ming Wang Xing will do. There's only one person I want to talk about. The only reason why I came to Zhai Wang Xing in person is to express my sincerity. As for Zhai Wang Xing, It’s up to you to decide how you judge my words.”

"The journey from Mingwang to Zhaiwang won't be too short, right?"

"I set off three months ago and stayed at the space station most of the time. I landed three days ago and got in touch with Deputy Director Meili Tao."

Lu Linbei stood up, "No matter what Deputy Director Wang thinks of me, I'm still just a messenger."

Wang Chenhuan shook hands with Lu Linbei and walked him to the door, "And I am just a speaker."

Lu Linbei returned to the Emergency Department with the bill for the diplomatic apartment and repeated Wang Chenwen's words as completely as possible. If his third uncle asked, he would also tell his impressions and guesses.

The third uncle didn't ask, listened quietly, and nodded, "Okay, go do your thing. I want to formally inform you that this matter is top secret."

"Yes." Lu Linbei did not leave.

"Anything else?"

"Ru Hongshang wants to ask Third Uncle through me whether there will be a war, which will directly affect her investment plan. She also promised to share the benefits, but did not say a specific plan."

"Are you going to see her this afternoon?"

"yes."

"Tell her that if she wants a war, there will be a war. If she doesn't, there won't be one, but she has to push hard." The third uncle lowered his head to work and made a clear expulsion.

Lu Linbei turned around and left, thinking that his third uncle could go and tell fortunes.
