Spy Wars: Strong Agents Who Are Ruthless and Talk Little

Every line of text, every photo, every number leaped before his eyes, transforming into an invisible force that threatened to overwhelm all his defenses. He instinctively wanted to put the document down and escape from it all, but he knew he couldn't. The truth always reveals itself inadvertently, like a hidden wound that will eventually bleed.

He took a deep breath and suddenly stood up. The chair on the table made a sharp creak, and the entire room seemed to vibrate slightly at his movement. His footsteps were heavy, and the sound of his heartbeat echoed in the quiet room. He crossed the room, walked to the window, and looked out. The night was still as dark as ink, as if the entire world was swallowed by darkness, and he stood in this darkness, feeling more lonely than ever.

"If Zheng Yaoxian is truly a traitor, then what does all this mean?" He pondered the question, unable to find the answer. No matter what, he couldn't just stand by and watch this happen. He had to uncover the truth, even if it meant facing harsh reality.

Su Ming turned away from the window when suddenly, his ears caught a faint sound coming from outside the room. Footsteps were soft, slow, and steady, almost imperceptible. His heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and he immediately entered a state of high alert.

His hands quietly reached behind his back for the small pistol in the drawer. When his fingers touched the cold metal, his heartbeat seemed to stop with its chill. There was no sound, no movement, only the sound of footsteps gradually receding.

"Impossible... He's gone. Did I hear wrong?" Su Ming's mind began to churn, and a strong sense of unease surged in his heart. What on earth was Zheng Yaoxian doing here? Was he spying on him, or—

He didn't have time to think about it. Footsteps began to sound again, closer. The sounds outside the door were gradually approaching, no longer simply gentle pacing, but with a certain urgency, as if waiting for something. He turned slightly, his eyes fixed on the door, a series of possibilities flashing through his mind.

"If it's really him, then why doesn't he just knock on the door?" Su Ming's fingers tightly gripped the handle of the gun. His heartbeat became more and more rapid, and his muscles were tense, as if some kind of power was about to burst out at any time.

Suddenly, the footsteps outside the door stopped, and then Su Ming heard a low, slow, deep breathing sound. It seemed as if someone was standing quietly near the crack of the door. The person's presence seemed to freeze the air. Su Ming's pupils suddenly shrank, and he knew that his situation was precarious.

He bent down gently and approached the door with light steps, his eyes quickly scanning everything around him, searching for a possible way out and a weapon. But he knew he didn't have much time to think about it. The person outside the door might have noticed his movements.

Just as Su Ming was about to take action, a soft sigh came from outside the door. The voice was so familiar that it almost froze him instantly. It was Zheng Yaoxian's voice.

"Brother Ming, do you think tonight will be the last time we meet?" Zheng Yaoxian's voice was low and gentle, as if he was sharing a secret with Su Ming that no one would ever know.

Su Ming's heartbeat suddenly accelerated. In that moment, he could barely control the trembling in his heart. Zheng Yaoxian! How did he know he was here? How could he know what he was waiting for?

"What exactly do you want to do, Zheng Yaoxian?" Su Ming's voice was low and solemn. He could almost feel the approaching danger.

Zheng Yaoxian, who was outside the door, still didn't answer. He was silent for a moment, then he whispered, "Brother Ming, I know you don't trust me, but you can still choose to trust me this time."

Those words pierced Su Ming's heart like a sharp arrow. Standing at the doorway, he could almost feel Zheng Yaoxian's presence there, the oppressive feeling in the air growing thicker. Su Ming's heart was filled with confusion and entanglement. Trust? Could he trust Zheng Yaoxian again?

However, Zheng Yaoxian's next words made his body stiffen instantly -

Su Ming's heart skipped a beat, as if something heavy had weighed him down. His hand trembled slightly, and the moment he gripped the pistol tightly, his mind went blank, all his thoughts shattered by those words. "Someone is watching you from behind." These words flashed through Su Ming's mind like a flash of lightning, instantly igniting the fear deep within him.

He could almost hear his own heartbeat, dull and rapid. Zheng Yaoxian spoke so calmly and calmly, as if it weren't a terrifying secret. It was the truth. A truth he had never realized. And this truth, like an icy knife, pierced his chest.

"What... did you say?" Su Ming's voice was hoarse, as if he was choking on his own doubts. He knew he had to stay calm, but at this moment, he was already shattered by the sudden revelation, and it was impossible to maintain his composure. His heart began to race, and he felt as if his entire world was rapidly collapsing.

Zheng Yaoxian outside the door did not answer. After a few seconds of silence, he finally spoke slowly: "You don't have to ask too much. You also know that we are not on the same side. There is no need for me to hide anything from you." His voice was as calm as water, but with a ruthlessness that could not be ignored.

Su Ming's eyes narrowed slightly. Although his heart was in turmoil, he did not react immediately. He knew that any drastic reaction at this moment could bring unpredictable consequences.

"What do you mean, Zheng Yaoxian?" He lowered his voice, his tone filled with helplessness and confusion. Su Ming's fingers slightly tightened, gripping the handle of the pistol tightly, but he still didn't let go.

Zheng Yaoxian's voice remained steady, and he seemed in no rush to respond. After a long moment, he finally spoke, "Brother Ming, have you ever wondered why I haven't mentioned these things between us?" He spoke without hesitation, as if he had anticipated Su Ming's question and even made ample preparations. "You should have realized long ago that someone was watching you, and that those behind you were no longer the people you knew."

Su Ming suddenly felt lost. He looked down at the folder in his hands, recalling every message Zheng Yaoxian had given him. Everything in the past made him feel a wave of something was wrong. However, what truly confused him was Zheng Yaoxian's attitude. Zheng Yaoxian didn't push him, nor did he show any hostility. On the contrary, his every word and action revealed an unpredictable calmness.
