My dream connects to three thousand years later.

Chapter 211 The So-Called Undercover Agent (Fourth Update)

the other side.

Chu Zhu hung up the phone. His brow furrowed, and with a grim expression, he peered through the window at the numerous escorts on the hospital beds. Several of them were even making groaning noises.

Several doctors and nurses are treating the injuries of the escorts.

"What's next?" Li Kang walked behind Chu Zhu. Even though he knew there was a window separating them and the people inside couldn't hear their conversation, he still subconsciously lowered his voice.

"Remove the most seriously injured and the least seriously injured! Then pick one randomly. I want to talk to him!" Chu Zhu didn't recognize the escorts present, which was normal, since he had already submitted a list of undercover agents he knew.

Obviously, unless the Commandant of the Capital Garrison is mentally unstable, they would not fail to transfer those who clearly have problems from important positions.

But... even setting aside the precognition gained from constantly reloading save files, he could still deduce a lot based on his own honed abilities.

First, the person most seriously injured at the scene was clearly on the verge of death, so they were unlikely to be an undercover agent... The person with the least serious injuries was unconscious. To clear themselves of suspicion, they wouldn't have made their injuries so minor...

So... roughly, we'll take one from the middle!
With this method, the chances of getting it aren't low... Ultimately, there's a high probability that there's more than one undercover agent sent this time.

"Okay." Just as Li Kang was about to leave, Chu Zhu suddenly remembered something and added, "Pick one with a special skill!"

"For example?" Li Kang asked hesitantly.

"Solve the case?" Chu Zhu's words were somewhat uncertain. Then, realizing that this skill seemed useless to him, he added, "Is there any fighting technique that is unparalleled in the world? Or ranked among the top in the Great Qian Dynasty? Unbeatable marksmanship is fine! Knife and staff techniques are also acceptable... I'm not picky!"

Li Kang: "...?"

His face contorted in pain, and he hesitated several times before finally speaking. This was the logistics department!

Moreover, even he wouldn't dare say that his skills are among the best in the Great Qian Dynasty. And you... you say you're not picky about anything? With your standards, you wouldn't stand a chance!
"If it's really difficult, other special skills are fine too! Okay, no need for high standards, just having a special skill is enough." Chu Zhu herself realized how outrageous the conditions she had set were.

Hearing this, Li Kang breathed a slight sigh of relief. Although he was also a little puzzled as to why they insisted on emphasizing his special skills…

“Besides…” Chu Zhu paused slightly, emphasizing, “They must not know martial arts! You should be able to find one, right?”

After all, his current copying technique cannot be used on superhumans.

"Yes, the logistics department can! The proportion of kung fu masters isn't as high as you might think," Li Kang replied with a subtle expression.

The Commandery is not entirely an organization of superhumans!

It can only be said that the special operations teams in each district are composed entirely of extraordinary individuals...

Of course, in a logistics department that mixes the supernatural and the ordinary, the work content and even the work areas of the two are relatively isolated! At the same time, all members need to strictly follow the rules and regulations and adhere to the principle of confidentiality.

Only in situations like escorting goods, which are inherently low-risk, is it possible for supernatural beings and ordinary people to use the same methods together!
It sounds like a lot of trouble... but there's no other way!
To put it bluntly, it's because the number of superhumans is simply too small. The Commandery simply cannot function if it relies entirely on superhumans.

"Then let's leave it at that," Chu Zhu replied. ...

After a while.

Inside an empty hospital room.

Li Kang pushed a wheelchair and shoved a man covered in bandages, his face showing some unease, into the room.

Li Kang looked at Chu Zhu, who was sitting in a chair in the room: "This is Section Chief Gao Xuan, who is considered the second person in charge of this operation! He is very capable..."

Li Kang glanced at Gao Xuan without making a sound, his expression inscrutable. The reason he chose this person was because he had glanced at the report earlier and felt that there seemed to be some inexplicable suspicious points about this person.

Li Kang organized his thoughts: "He is proficient in seven regional dialects and is also skilled in the written languages ​​of various overseas ethnic groups. He is often transferred by the Honglu Temple in Jinghai to communicate with the red-haired and golden-haired tribes from the West... This should meet your requirement of having a special skill, right?"

Red-haired and golden-haired naturally refer to foreign tribes from overseas during this era.

"That works." Chu Zhu nodded with a smile. To be honest, he didn't know much about the languages ​​of the various overseas races. Even with constant resets, he still... let alone in dreams, he hated memorizing English in the real world!
In the dream world, he was even less likely to learn the languages ​​of those overseas races... After all, he had previously believed that this world was fake, and that learning various skills was purely out of interest...

However, it must be said that... knowing the truth of this world and learning the languages ​​of various overseas peoples will indeed be helpful for the future.

After a brief pause, Chu Zhu repeatedly examined Gao Xuan, until Gao Xuan was filled with apprehension.

Finally, Gao Xuan couldn't hold back any longer and asked, "Young man... why did you call me here? I... I... I told the investigators everything I knew as soon as I regained consciousness. I really don't know anything..."

"Don't worry! It'll be over soon." Chu Zhu made a gesture to Li Kang. Li Kang frowned slightly, but in the end, he did as he had done with Chu Zhu before, gently tapping the neck that was hanging high.

Before Gao Xuan could even raise a guard, his eyes rolled back and he fainted.

"Alright, you can go out now! Don't worry, the person will definitely be returned to you safely later," Chu Zhu reassured him.

Li Kang opened his mouth, but ultimately, trusting Chu Zhu, he withdrew. After closing the door, Li Kang paced back and forth a few times to calm himself, muttering to himself, "So, it's some kind of intelligence-related supernatural ability?"

The only thing Li Kang could think of that could be supernatural powers was the answer he was so afraid of.

But if it's really as he imagines...

He glanced at the gate, his eyes filled with envy and a sigh of regret: "What a pity."

Unfortunately, A-Zhu was ultimately just a guest advisor, not a subordinate who joined the special operations team!
Otherwise, he wouldn't even dare to imagine how easy it would be to solve cases in the future.
Such cultivators, who possess extraordinary intelligence abilities, are incredibly sought after in their respective jurisdictions!
However, Li Kang then patted his cheeks and comforted himself, "Actually, it's pointless! After all, if someone really had such supernatural abilities and it got out... Captain Huo would probably just forcibly take them away!"

The special operations team in the Third District couldn't retain such highly skilled personnel. In fact, as far as Li Kang knew, the Second District seemed to have produced a similar talent before, and the final result was...

Well, I heard that even Commander Huo couldn't keep his position and was eventually transferred to Tianjing...
