Spy war in the Republic of China, peak undercover

Lu Yang struggled to stand, but found himself completely drained of strength, collapsing to the ground. His vision blurred, his consciousness scattered, and there was only a buzzing sound in his ears. Qinglan's anxious cries faded away, and finally, Lu Yang's consciousness completely fell into darkness.

...

Lu Yang and Qing Lan rushed to Nanjing and went straight to the Presidential Palace.

The courtyard was surrounded by high walls, and the soldiers at the gate were like an iron tower. Lu Yang stepped forward, but was stopped by the guards.

"I'm Lu Yang, and I have something to ask the president." Lu Yang took out the note given by Zhang Hannian.

The guard took the note and his expression changed immediately. "Please wait a moment. I'll go and inform them."

The guard returned. "Mr. Lu, the president invites you in."

Lu Yang nodded and led Qing Lan into the Presidential Palace. Everywhere was glittering with gold, dazzling the eyes. After many twists and turns, the two of them arrived at a large conference room.

The room was full of people, all dressed in suits and ties, looking very impressive.

"Lu Yang, you're here." The president sat at the head seat at the conference table.

"Mr. President." Lu Yang stepped forward and saluted.

"Please sit down." The president pointed to the empty seat next to him.

Lu Yang pulled Qinglan to sit down.

"Lu Yang, I called you here today because I want to hear your plan." The president went straight to the point.

"Plan? What plan?" Lu Yang pretended to be stupid.

"Project 'Spark'!" the president's eyes were sharp.

"Mr. President, what are you talking about? I don't understand." Lu Yang continued to play dumb.

"Don't understand? Lu Yang, do you think you can hide it from me?" The president sneered, "I just want to know, what are you going to do?"

"I plan to lure the snake out of its hole!"

"Draw the snake out of its hole?" the president repeated, thoughtfully. "Doesn't 'Zero' want to kill the president? Then we should give him the chance."

"How?" asked the president.

"Isn't there a public event in three days? This is a good opportunity."

"You mean..." The President narrowed his eyes.

"We must use this opportunity to lure Zero out and capture him in one fell swoop!"

"This is too risky." The president hesitated.

"How can we catch 'Zero' without taking risks?" Lu Yang asked back.

"Don't worry, Mr. President, I promise you will be fine."

"I'll do as you say!" the president finally made up his mind. "This time, it all depends on you."

"Don't worry, Mr. President, I will definitely not let you down."

"Well, meeting adjourned!" The president stood up.

Lu Yang and Qing Lan walked out of the Presidential Palace.

"Lu Yang, are you really sure?" Qing Lan asked worriedly.

"Don't worry, I never do anything that I'm not sure of." Lu Yang smiled.

……

Three days later, the president attended a public event.

The streets of Nanjing were deserted, and people gathered in the square, waiting for the president's arrival. Lu Yang and Qing Lan hid in the crowd, observing their surroundings.

"Lu Yang, look over there." Qinglan's voice was very low.

Lu Yang looked in the direction of Qinglan's finger and saw several men in black standing in the corner of the square, acting stealthily.

"It's the Black Crow people." Lu Yang whispered.

"They did come."

"Hmph, there's a road to heaven but you don't take it, and there's no door to hell but you break in!" Lu Yang sneered.

"Lu Yang, what should we do now?" Qing Lan asked.

"Wait, wait for 'Zero' to appear." Lu Yang said.

"He will definitely come." Lu Yang said affirmatively.

Suddenly, there was a noise and the president's motorcade drove into the square.

People cheered, jumped, and waved flags. The president stepped out of his car, stood on a raised platform, and waved to the crowd.

"It's started." Lu Yang whispered with sharp eyes.

Zero must be nearby, looking for an opportunity to strike. He must kill him before Zero makes a move!

"Qinglan, you are responsible for protecting the president, I will go find 'Zero'." Lu Yang said to Qinglan.

"Then be careful."

"Don't worry." Lu Yang turned and walked towards the corner of the square. His target was the men in black.

Lu Yang walked up to the men in black, stopped, and looked at them with cold eyes.

"Who are you?" Lu Yang asked.

The man in black didn't say anything, but just looked at Lu Yang coldly, his eyes full of murderous intent.

"Don't want to tell me? Then I'll send you off!" Lu Yang grabbed the collar of a man in black, threw him to the ground, and stepped on his chest.

"Tell me, where is 'Zero'?" Lu Yang asked sternly.

"I don't know..." the man in black said fearfully.

Lu Yang stepped on the man in black and broke his ribs. "Ah!" the man in black screamed.

"Now, do you understand?" Lu Yang's voice was like a devil from hell.

"I still don't know..." The man in black gritted his teeth and said, he would rather die than betray Zero.

"Since you don't want to tell me, I'll send you off!" Lu Yang stepped on the black-clothed man's head, and his head exploded like a watermelon.

"Now, who can tell me where 'Zero' is?" Lu Yang looked at the remaining men in black.

The man in black was frightened by Lu Yang's cruelty. He trembled all over and dared not look Lu Yang in the eye.

"I...I know..." a man in black said tremblingly.

"where is he?"

"He's right here..." The man in black suddenly trembled and fell to the ground, with a tiny bloody hole between his eyebrows.

"Sniper!" Lu Yang looked up and around, but did not find any trace of the sniper.

"Damn it!" Lu Yang knew he had been fooled!

"'Zero', come out here!" Lu Yang shouted at the square, his voice echoing like thunder.

However, no one responded to him.

"Lu Yang, you lost." A voice suddenly sounded in Lu Yang's ears.

Lu Yang turned around and saw Zhang Hannian. He had a gun pointed at Lu Yang's head.

"Zhang Hannian?!" Lu Yang exclaimed.

"Are you surprised? I am the real 'Zero'." Zhang Hannian smiled, his eyes smug and cruel.

"Your game is over." Zhang Hannian pulled the trigger.

"Bang!" Lu Yang fell to the ground.

"Lu Yang!" Qinglan's voice came, with a hint of fear and despair.

Qinglan was held tightly by Xiaohe and Xiaojiang.

"Hahaha..." Zhang Hannian laughed proudly.

"Lu Yang, you are finally dead! From now on, this world belongs to me!"

"Mr. President asks you to come over immediately." The president's secretary came over, his tone anxious.

"Something big has happened! The 'Spark' plan has been leaked!"

"What?! How is this possible?!" Zhang Hannian's face changed drastically.

"Now, the whole of Nanjing knows the content of the 'Fire' plan."

"Damn it! It must have been Lu Yang who did it!" Zhang Hannian cursed.

"What now?" asked the secretary.

"Of course, we'll kill them!" Zhang Hannian sneered, his eyes filled with murderous intent. "Only by killing everyone who knows about this can we keep our secret!"

"Do you think I'll win if you die? I'll let you know what true despair is!"

The air in the room seemed to have been sucked out, and it was suffocating.

"Loyalty?" Lu Yang's lips curled into an icy arc. He looked at Ling with contempt and asked, "Do you deserve it?"

This rhetorical question instantly ignited the tense atmosphere. Zero's face instantly darkened, like the sky before a storm.

"How dare you!" The man in black behind Ling shouted angrily, the samurai sword in his hand flashing with a cold light.

Lu Yang ignored him and continued to sit there calmly. His eyes were fixed on Ling, calm and sharp.

"Why, are you so angry that you are embarrassed? Or is this the extent of your so-called 'Black Crow' organization? You can't even listen to a word of truth?" Lu Yang smiled contemptuously.

Ling raised his hand to stop his men, and his bottomless eyes stared at Lu Yang like a poisonous snake.

"Fujiwara Kenichi, you are very smart and arrogant, but arrogance comes at a price."

"Price? I, Lu Yang, have lived to this day, but I still don't know how to write the word 'price'." Lu Yang raised his eyebrows and said it in a nonchalant tone.

"Then today, I'll let you see it for yourself!" Ling said coldly with a sinister smile on his face.

Ling slammed his hand on the table, and it instantly shattered into pieces. The shoji doors on all four sides of the room swung open with a loud bang, and countless men in black poured into the room like ghosts, surrounding Lu Yang.

There were flashes of swords and murderous intent, and the air was filled with a suffocating sense of oppression.

Qinglan, Xiaohe and Xiaojiang also felt like they were facing a formidable enemy. They drew their weapons, stood back to back, and looked around vigilantly.

"Lu Yang, be careful!" Qing Lan reminded in a low voice.

Lu Yang gave Qinglan a reassuring look, then slowly stood up, looked around at the men in black who surrounded him, and a bloodthirsty smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Come on, today, let me see what your 'Black Crow' organization is capable of!" Lu Yang said in Japanese.

Lu Yang's figure moved, like a tiger descending from the mountain, rushing towards the crowd of people in black.

"Kill!" Hei Ya gave an order, and the man in black waved the samurai sword and slashed at Lu Yang.

Swords and swords flashed, flesh and blood flew everywhere.

Lu Yang's figure was as fast as lightning, weaving through the crowd of black-clad people. The short knife in his hand was like the scythe of the god of death. Blood splattered, screams were heard, and the black-clad people fell in groups.

Qinglan, Xiaohe and Xiaojiang followed closely behind, forming an indestructible battle fortress, capable of both offense and defense, and resolving the attacks of the men in black one by one.

"Baga! This is impossible!" Black Crow looked at the scene in front of him, his eyes filled with shock.

"Use the bomb! I want to make sure they die without a burial place!"

The man in black took out several grenades from his pocket and pulled the fuses.

"Oh no! Get out of the way!" Qinglan exclaimed.

Lu Yang retreated violently, shouting, "Qinglan! Xiaohe! Xiaojiang! Retreat!"

The man in black has already thrown the grenade.

Deafening explosions rang out one after another, flames shot up into the sky, air waves rolled, and the whole room shook violently.

Lu Yang felt a powerful shock wave coming towards him, knocking him away and hitting the wall. He spat out a mouthful of blood and felt a sharp pain in his chest.

I struggled to stand up, but found that I had completely lost my strength.

My vision began to blur, my consciousness became scattered, and there was only a buzzing sound in my ears.

"Lu Yang! Lu Yang!" Qinglan's anxious shouts became farther and farther away and more and more blurred.

In the end, Lu Yang's consciousness fell completely into darkness.

Zhang Hannian turned around and prepared to leave the square. He wanted to personally direct this massacre and make everyone who knew about it pay the price!

However, the moment he turned around, he suddenly felt a pain in his chest. He looked down and saw a dagger that had pierced deeply into his heart.

"You..." Zhang Hannian widened his eyes and looked at the person standing in front of him in disbelief. That person was actually... Lu Yang!

"You...you are not dead?!" Zhang Hannian asked with his last bit of strength.

"You're not dead yet, how can I bear to leave first?" Lu Yang said coldly, then he suddenly pulled out the dagger and blood gushed out.

Zhang Hannian screamed and fell to the ground. He never understood until his death how Lu Yang dodged the bullet.

Lu Yang glanced at Zhang Hannian's body with a cold look in his eyes. He had long expected Zhang Hannian to attack him, so he had made preparations in advance, wearing a bulletproof vest, and he had deliberately fallen down to lure Zhang Hannian into the trap.

"Lu Yang!" Qinglan's voice came with a hint of surprise.

Lu Yang turned around and saw Qinglan, Xiaohe and Xiaojiang running towards him.

"Are you okay?" Qinglan ran to Lu Yang and asked with concern.

"I'm fine." Lu Yang smiled, then he looked at Qinglan and said seriously, "Qinglan, thank you. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid..."

"Stop talking," Qinglan interrupted Lu Yang, "We are friends, aren't we?"

"Yes, friend." Lu Yang nodded, then he held Qinglan's hand tightly.

"Uncle Lu, you are so awesome!" Xiaohe and Xiaojiang also ran over and said excitedly.

"Haha, that's nothing." Lu Yang said with a smile, then he touched the two children's heads, "You two are very brave too."

"Lu Yang, what should we do now?" Qing Lan asked.

"We are now..." Lu Yang pondered for a moment and said slowly, "We have to stop Zero's plan!"

"Stop Zero's plan?" Qing Lan was stunned. "But Zero is already dead."

"He's not dead," Lu Yang shook his head. "Zhang Hannian is not the real 'Zero'."

"What?!" Qinglan exclaimed, "How...how is this possible?"

"Nothing is impossible," Lu Yang said. "Zhang Hannian is just a stand-in for Zero, a stand-in used to confuse us."

"Who is the real 'Zero'?" Qinglan asked.

"The real 'Zero'..." Lu Yang's eyes became deeper, "He is right next to us."

"Around us?" Qinglan was even more surprised. "Who is it?"

"Do you remember the mysterious 'Old Six'?" Lu Yang said.

"I remember," Qinglan nodded, "Isn't he... dead?"

"He's not dead," Lu Yang said, "He is 'Zero'!"

"What?!" Qinglan was completely shocked. She could never have imagined that the mysterious "Old Six" was actually "Zero"!

"This...what is going on?" Qinglan asked, her voice full of confusion.

"This is a long story," Lu Yang said. "But I can tell you that 'Old Six' is a very dangerous person. He's even more terrifying than Zhang Hannian."

"So what should we do now?" Qinglan asked, her tone full of worry.

"We must find him as soon as possible," Lu Yang said, "and then stop his plan."

"But how can we find him?" Qinglan asked.

"I know where he is." Lu Yang said, then he took out a note from his arms and handed it to Qinglan.

"This is..." Qinglan looked at the address on the note and asked puzzledly.

"This is Lao Liu's hiding place." Lu Yang said, "I got this from Zhang Hannian."

"Did Zhang Hannian tell you?" Qinglan asked.
