Ah Cheng closed his notebook and looked at Su Ming seriously: "You have to be careful. There must be something complicated behind this level of espionage. Perhaps it's not just commercial interests, it may involve more complex international interests."

Su Ming nodded. He understood the risks of this mission. After bidding farewell to Ah Cheng, he once again slipped into the city's nightscape, preparing to formulate his next plan.

Back in his apartment, Su Ming sat in front of his computer, tapping away at the keyboard to access the Shadow Organization's database. He needed to gather information on the board members and executives of Cyber ​​International, who might be the masterminds behind the espionage activities.

"These guys are all seasoned business veterans," he muttered to himself. On the screen were photos and resumes of executives, and one of them caught his attention.

"John Carter," Su Ming whispered. This executive's background was closely tied to intelligence activities. He was the company's chief technology officer, responsible for managing technology development and information security.

Su Ming dug deeper into Carter's background and discovered that he had been active in some suspicious technology forums and even attended several top hacker conferences. This made Su Ming even more convinced that Carter might be a key figure involved in industrial espionage.

"I have to find an opportunity to contact him." Su Ming thought to himself, and then began to study Cyber ​​International's event schedule, especially those public business activities.

In a few days, Cyber ​​International will hold a high-tech product launch conference at a hotel in the city center, with all the company's senior executives in attendance. This will be the perfect time for Su Ming to contact Carter.

On the day of the press conference, Su Ming, dressed in a smart suit, blended into the crowd. He noticed that the security measures throughout the hall were quite strict, and Cyber ​​International clearly attached great importance to this event.

"You have to be careful." He said to himself, trying not to attract other people's attention and blending among the various booths.

Soon, he spotted Carter in the crowd. Carter was chatting with several business people and looked very casual, but Su Ming could sense that the bodyguards around him were always vigilantly watching their surroundings.

Su Ming approached quietly, taking the opportunity to stand near Carter, trying to get some valuable information. Suddenly, Carter's phone rang. He picked up the phone with a slightly irritated look and walked aside.

"I don't care what method you use, you must get the report as soon as possible." Although Carter's voice was low, Su Ming could still catch a few key words.

“They have to move faster, or all our plans for next quarter will be ruined.”

This conversation shocked Su Ming. It was obvious that they were accelerating a plan that might be related to espionage.

In order to get more information, Su Ming decided to take the risk of following Carter. When Carter left the lobby and walked towards the hotel's VIP lounge, Su Ming followed closely behind, carefully keeping a distance to avoid being discovered.

He saw Carter enter a private meeting room. Through the half-open door, Su Ming glimpsed Carter talking with a mysterious man. The man's face was hidden in the shadows and could not be seen clearly, but judging from his tone and attitude, this man was no ordinary person.

"How are things going?" The man's voice was low and indifferent.

"The plan is going well, but it requires more time and resources," Carter replied.

The man was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "Time is not a problem. We just need to ensure that we can gain an advantage over the competition. Remember, your mission is not only related to the interests of the company, but also the interests of the country."

National interests? Su Ming's heartbeat quickened. This commercial espionage actually involved national interests. This made things even more complicated.

Just as Su Ming was about to collect further information, an inadvertent movement caused him to step on the vase rack beside him. The slight collision sound seemed particularly abrupt in the silent corridor.

"Who's there?" Carter turned around suddenly and walked towards the door vigilantly.

Su Ming knew he had been exposed, so he quickly dodged back to the corner of the corridor and quickly left the hotel using the familiar terrain. He could sense someone chasing him from behind, but Su Ming knew his surroundings like the back of his hand, and after a few turns, he had completely lost sight of the pursuers.

Su Ming returned home with mixed feelings. He knew the mission was far more dangerous than he had anticipated, and the underlying conflicts of interest were extremely complex. He compiled the intelligence he had gathered and sent it to the Shadow Organization, hoping for more detailed analysis and guidance.

Soon after, he received an encrypted email. The content of the email was concise but to the point: "Continue the investigation, but must proceed with caution and avoid direct confrontation."

Su Ming leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and recalled every detail of the mission in his mind. He realized that this mission was not just an ordinary case of industrial espionage, but was likely part of a far-reaching plan that could even affect national security.

"The Shadow Organization's orders cannot be disobeyed," Su Ming reminded himself. He knew his responsibilities clearly. His mission was not only to investigate, but also to take action at critical moments to prevent potential threats.

To further his investigation, Su Ming decided to infiltrate Cyber ​​International's headquarters. It was a risky plan, but he had no choice. As night fell, he donned his spy gear and a full set of infiltration tools and headed for Cyber ​​International's high-rise building in the heart of the city.

With his superb infiltration skills and understanding of the security system, Su Ming successfully bypassed the layers of security and entered the building. He knew that Carter's office was located at

Su Ming disguises himself as an ordinary white-collar worker in urban life, and he must strike a balance between work and his agent missions.

In this city of steel and concrete, Su Ming constantly wanders on the edge of light and shadow. By day, he's an ordinary office worker, dressed in a sharp suit, mingling with the hustle and bustle of office buildings. At night, he transforms into a fearless secret agent, weaving through the shadows of the city.

That morning, Su Ming, as usual, bought a cup of Americano at the café downstairs from his apartment building and sipped it while thinking about his work schedule for the day. His colleagues smiled and greeted him, and Su Ming responded one by one, trying to maintain a seemingly normal workplace social interaction.

"Hey, Su Ming!" His colleague Xiao Liu quickly caught up and patted him on the shoulder. "Did you see yesterday's email? The boss asked us to hold an impromptu meeting this afternoon to discuss the progress of the new project."

"Of course I saw that," he said, adjusting his tone to a subtle warmth. "We need to prepare well and try to present some constructive ideas at the meeting."

"You're always so organized," Xiao Liu said enviously. "I really wish I could be as calm and composed as you."
