After that day, Xiao Rui and Wen Ning'er split into two groups and set out in directions that had not been patrolled before.

Wen Ning'er spent two days and two days in the jungle, a total of seven days, and finally there was some progress.

The results will probably be out soon, and she has also discovered several teams from Country M.

Each of their teams basically has more than a dozen people, and they are armed with guns.

Wen Ning'er used her special abilities to dodge several waves. It wasn't because she couldn't beat these people, but because she didn't want to cause any trouble.

After finding Professor Mao and confirming his safety, we will consider whether to leave these people in the woods forever.

Wen Ning'er hid on a tree trunk, closed her eyes, and followed the clues to track Professor Mao.

At a certain moment, she suddenly opened her eyes, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth:

"found it!"

Professor Mao looked a little weak and his clothes were a little messy, but overall he was fine.

At least there are no serious injuries and his life is safe.

There were a total of 6 people with Professor Mao, 4 men and 2 women (a total of seven people including Professor Mao).

The two wearing camouflage uniforms should be the soldiers who brought Professor Mao and his team back, and the remaining five should be Professor Mao's assistants in the intelligence department.

Did Professor Mao bring back so many assistants?

Under normal circumstances, experts would not bring so many assistants with them when they return to China.

There were only two soldiers, but according to intelligence, this team should be a team of eight.

Wen Ning'er did not go to find them immediately, but returned to the place agreed with Xiao Rui and others, and contacted them to gather as soon as possible.

The intelligence they received now was quite different from the actual situation. No wonder they said the traitor was still among the team.

Wen Ning'er felt strange at the time. There were only two people in total, so it shouldn't be difficult to find the traitor.

Now the result is that four people are suspected of being traitors.

If the traitor is determined to return to the country with them and not reveal any flaws, it will be difficult for them to determine who is the problem in the forest in a short period of time.

"This is the situation now, Lei Ting. After we receive Professor Mao, how are we going to lure the traitor out?"

Xiao Rui thought about it, made a gesture for them to come closer, and whispered a few words.

Yin Yucheng's eyes instantly sparkled with stars, "Lei Ting, this move of yours is too cruel!"

Wen Ning'er also thought this was a good idea. Sometimes you have to alert the snake, otherwise how can you catch it when the snake is in the hole?

"Okay, I've memorized their locations. And the plants will keep me informed of their movements. Shall we go pick them up now?"

Xiao Rui nodded and said, "Let's use this cave as the gathering point for now. The cave we passed by when we came here before can be used as a resting point for retreat."

"Mouse, take the rabbit and the wild cat to pick up Professor Mao and the others. Orange and I will go take care of the bugs in the forest."

Wen Ning'er and the other two had no objections. After determining their division of labor, they nodded to Xiao Rui, then left the cave and headed straight towards the professor.

On the way, they encountered the foreign mercenaries they had met before, but the three of them still ignored them and reported their location to Xiao Rui, who would then clean them up.

The three of them soon arrived at the cave where Professor Mao and his companions were hiding.

"Stop, who are you?"

Xiong Weiqing stood in front of the three people with a dagger in one hand and a defensive posture.

When they were a hundred meters away from the cave, the three were discovered because they did not try to hide their bodies at all.

"Don't be nervous, we are from the Special Management Office, sent by the Empire to pick you up." Meng Haoran introduced himself.

The Ability Management Office is uniformly referred to as the Special Management Office to the outside world, because matters such as people with abilities are kept secret from most people.

So in the eyes of most people, Wen Ning'er and his team are equivalent to a special department of the National Security Organization.

Meng Haoran threw his ID to Xiong Weiqing.

People within the imperial system, especially middle and high-level officials, would first familiarize themselves with the credentials of various special departments to avoid situations where the credentials would be shown and someone would not recognize them, which would cause delays.

Xiong Weiqing did not change his defensive posture. He carefully examined the document after receiving it and only relaxed after confirming that it was not forged.

They finally got rescued!

If rescue doesn't come, they don't know how long they can hold on.

He and Ji Baohua would have no problem eating insects raw, but there were seven of them in total, and feeding the others every day was a big problem.

These days they have been relying on hunting and picking wild fruits to fill their stomachs. Although they are not starving, they are very weak.

After all, they also have to protect the safety of the researchers and cannot use all their energy on hunting.

Xiong Weiqing brought Wen Ning'er and the other two to the cave. The moment Ji Baohua saw the strangers, his body automatically became alert.

But after listening to Xiong Weiqing's introduction, I realized that these were friendly forces.

Mao Shan also felt relieved that the empire had not given up on them. As a researcher of supernatural reagents, he naturally knew that there were people with supernatural powers in the world.

It was impossible for him not to feel panicked at all as he watched the soldiers who came to rescue him being left behind one by one and never coming back. Sometimes he even thought, I might as well just leave these old bones in the forest.

He knew that if those soldiers wanted to leave, it was no problem. It was because of them that they were a burden...

Meng Haoran immediately recognized Professor Mao and saluted him, "Professor, we are here to take you home by order of the Imperial Family."

After saying that, he took off his backpack, which contained compressed biscuits and water, specially brought to feed the trapped people.

Before leaving, Wen Ning'er packed half a year's worth of food in her backpack.

Anyway, she has space, so it's better to be prepared.

He only carried a backpack to conceal his identity in front of the four assistants who were suspected of being traitors.

"Here are some compressed biscuits and water. Everyone, rest here for a day. We will set off for home tomorrow."

The two soldiers didn't move, and they didn't move even after the professor and his assistants had taken everything.

Wen Ning'er noticed what the two soldiers were thinking and said to them, "We've brought enough food this time, and with so many people, hunting is very convenient. There's no need to skimp."

Xiong Weiqing found that Wen Ning'er did not look like she was short of food, so he also picked up the biscuits and started eating.

However, their plan to set off the next day was disrupted.

"Professor, professor?" Xiong Weiqing gently pushed Professor Mao's body, but Professor Mao hummed twice and there was no response.

Wen Ning'er felt something was wrong, so she went forward and touched Professor Mao's forehead, only to find that the professor had a fever.

Professor Mao might have been nervously trying to escape, and when he suddenly relaxed, he became ill.

Wen Ning'er quickly took out some cold medicine and gave it to Professor Mao. "It seems we can't leave today. Let's check on the professor this afternoon. If the fever is gone, there's no problem leaving tomorrow. But if the fever is still there this afternoon..."

Wen Ning'er didn't finish her words, but Meng Haoran knew what she meant. This kind of accident could not be predicted.

The plan can only be postponed. After all, it is outside, and the professor cannot completely relax until he enters the empire, even if they are not in any danger now.

Although these people have some abilities, they are not arrogant enough to think that they can handle every situation. If Country M also sends people with special abilities to kill and silence people, they will be in trouble.

Ping Jiahao reported the situation here to Xiao Rui. Xiao Rui sped up the process of dealing with the pursuers, wanting to reunite with them as soon as possible.

Fortunately, the next day Xiao Rui received news that the professor's fever had subsided.

Xiao Rui, standing on the tree trunk, looked at the pursuers a hundred meters away from him and muttered softly:

"Sorry everyone, please all stay!"
