664: Shine bright

But... during the parliamentary session, they clearly...

Deng Liduō didn't expect ** had already taken sides.

Clearly leaned more towards you, right? But they had already colluded in secret. You'd best make the public believe you have no connection with **, otherwise I can't help you." Su Yue made things very clear.

I'll listen to you, what do you say we do?" After Su Yue's long guidance, Deng Liduō had deep trust in him.

Next, you need to participate in more interview programs. When the North Chao Embassy incident is discussed in parliament, you must hold an opposing view to **. In short, you must draw a clear line with them now." Su Yue finished speaking and hung up the phone.

The guidance was complete, saying more would be redundant.

Su Yue recalled the call from last night, thinking he couldn't contact Deng Liduō recently. Once infiltrated into the Central Intelligence Agency, their control over members would be extremely strict.

He didn't know what kind of challenges he would face today.

Wang Linlin, under Su Yue's careful disguise, turned into Zheng Qi, while Su Yue also transformed into Cui Minhe. The two came together to the entrance of the Central Intelligence Agency.

Hello, we are new members of the Central Intelligence Agency, where do we report?" Zheng Qi was mainly responsible for diplomatic affairs, while Cui Minhe was constantly alert to the surroundings. Although they had been here many times, it was the first time working here so openly.

Okay, please follow me." The receiving Officer Si led them to register and receive their work clothes. As soon as they sat down at their seats, Captain came over.

You are the two selected by the detective?" Captain glanced sideways at Su Yue and Wang Linlin, with a hint of disdain in his tone.

That's right, that's how we got in. Is there a problem?" Wang Linlin replied without showing weakness.

Since you are so capable, how about I hand this case over to you?" Captain said, heavily slamming the case file in his hand onto the table. Su Yue watched this so-called Captain with cold eyes.

Since you look down on us so much, how about we make a bet?" Su Yue looked at Captain provocatively.

What? Are you trying to challenge me?" Captain curled his lip in disdain, not taking Su Yue's words seriously at all.

What? Are you scared? Unless you can solve this case without leaving the Central Intelligence Agency's entrance, otherwise, with just you? I'm afraid you can't do it?" Captain seemed to see the dawn of his promotion.

Ethan had specifically instructed the Captain of this team to treat the newcomers well. Having worked in the Central Intelligence Agency for many years, she naturally understood this kind of code word. At that time, she indicated that she understood.

So, as soon as Su Yue and the others arrived, she quickly came over.

If I really solve the case without leaving the Central Intelligence Agency's entrance, what will you do?" Su Yue looked at the Captain in front of him, and suddenly had an idea in his mind.

What do you say I should do?" Captain asked in return.

You resign, and the position of Captain goes to me." Su Yue proposed his condition.

The people around cast strange glances, whispering: "Is this person new?" "He's too arrogant, let's see how he ends up?" Colleagues made no secret of their curiosity and doubt.

Do you dare?" Su Yue, looking at Captain's hesitant appearance, asked again.

Captain was not a brainless person; he had carefully studied the files of these two people before. Although the solving of this case was not unrelated to them, after all, Ethan was backing them. No matter how strong their abilities were, there were limits.

Thinking of this, Captain's mood calmed down slightly.

What if you lose?" Captain asked.

I'll leave here." Su Yue directly stated his bet.

It's not that simple," Captain laughed sinisterly, "you have to clean the toilets here for a month before leaving!"

No problem." Su Yue accepted the challenge without hesitation.

After sitting down, he and Wang Linlin began to carefully study the case.

This is a simple theft case, but it unfortunately led to the victim's death." Wang Linlin couldn't find any clues no matter how she looked. Su Yue motioned for her to remain calm, while he himself got up and left his seat.

Did you hear? Two newcomers have arrived in Officer Si Group 4! The two people who were in the bathroom were discussing this matter.

Of course I heard, this matter is causing such a stir, who wouldn't know! It's not me saying it, that Team Leader of Group 4 is usually a fence-sitter, I really hope these two newcomers can teach him a lesson!

Su Yue pretended he had just finished using the bathroom, and interjected while washing his hands nearby: "That's really a bit difficult."

The Central Intelligence Agency has nearly 20,000 employees, and Su Yue and their office is on the 5th floor. He specifically came to the bathroom on the 2nd floor now, precisely to take advantage of the fact that people didn't know each other well.

Why? Are you upstairs?" The person who just spoke, upon hearing this, felt that Su Yue seemed to know some inside information, and asked curiously.

Well, I'm not upstairs, but my friend is upstairs. He said the case given to those two newcomers is especially difficult!" Su Yue said mysteriously.

Gossip is one of human nature.

Do you know which case it is?" They really wanted to know the details.

I don't know about that, but there seems to be a label on it, seems to be N3 something, they didn't see it clearly either." Su Yue inadvertently revealed key information.

n-shaped file! Isn't that a dead case?" The two people who just spoke looked at Su Yue in surprise.

Exactly, what do you think?" Su Yue threw the topic to them, "dead case", this was the first time they had heard of it.

It's clear they're trying to kick those two people out directly!" The person who was just discussing it exclaimed.

Didn't you say those dead cases that are n-shaped file..." Su Yue frowned, pretending not to understand.

What are you talking about, n-shaped file dead cases, you can't even find a trace of a person. It's one thing not to find the parties involved, the key is there aren't even any clues, they are all missing persons, and we don't even know where to look for them." That person leaned against the wall, revealing internal information.

Su Yue's eyes flickered, recalling the case he had taken on, it was indeed only described as theft leading to death, there were only file materials, no other evidence.

Su Yue silently told himself to be calm.

Then he asked again: "He's making things so difficult for the newcomers, if it really blows up, it won't look good, right?"

The two of us were thinking, this must be related to that only solved case!" That person looked at Su Yue confidently, as if he could foresee Su Yue's surprise.

Oh! You have a point!" Su Yue saw the hope of breaking the deadlock at a glance.

After saying goodbye to those two, Su Yue began to ponder: The only case!

After tidying his clothes, Su Yue disguised himself as a member of the group and blended in. As soon as he entered the group, he noticed someone signaling to the Captain.

That person should be the mole.

Why are you here? Where are those two? Not keeping an eye on them?" Su Yue glanced at his watch, he had been out for almost 15 minutes, he had to hurry back, if someone was watching.

His skill at extracting information was becoming more proficient.

They're still flipping through files over there, trying to find some clues!

Captain glanced at him, then asked: "So, have they found anything?"

Found anything? How is that possible? Captain, what you gave them is an n-shaped file!" Su Yue used the information he had extracted earlier as a lead, slowly baiting Captain into talking.

That's all thanks to you! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have thought of this move. When Special Agent Ethan promotes me, this position will be yours, don't worry!" Captain said, then put down the work he was doing, and started playing a game.

Not at all, it's still Captain's capable leadership. Then we should really get ready!" Su Yue's eyes never left the file on Captain's desk; the top one was the complete information for the case he gave to Su Yue.

As expected, he wasn't wrong, they just threw that only solved case at him, Su Yue laughed inwardly. "Captain, I see it's getting late, then I'll head back first."

Su Yue returned to the office smiling.

Why are you so happy? We don't have a clue yet!" Wang Linlin looked at Su Yue anxiously.

Did you bring your phone?" Su Yue asked Wang Linlin.

Yes, I did, but why are you asking this now?" Wang Linlin looked at Su Yue with a blank expression.

Give it to me, I'll show you something good." Wang Linlin handed the phone to Su Yue, Su Yue took it and started searching online.

For such a big case, how could the Central Intelligence Agency miss the opportunity for publicity? Searching online, Su Yue indeed found the answer, guessing no one expected one could investigate a case by searching online.

Captain, we've found the killer!" When Captain came to find them, Su Yue said.

If you dare to lie to me, you won't have a good outcome!" Captain said with a suspicious look, how could that be? This is an n-shaped file, they must be fooling me!

Alright, tell me about it!

Su Yue spread out the materials, handed them to Captain, and then spoke to the others.

This document is about a cold case from a few years ago, the victim died at home, but anyone who carefully investigated the scene could tell, the victim did not die at home. And in the file you gave me, there isn't even a photo of the victim.

Captain, did you overestimate my ability? Or did you deliberately want to make things difficult for me?

Su Yue said, staring at Captain.

What are you guys doing?" Ethan didn't expect to see their group in a mess as soon as he arrived.

Hello, Special Agent Ethan." As soon as the group members saw Ethan, they quickly returned to their respective positions.

Special Agent!" Captain lowered his head, not daring to look at Ethan.

After Ethan understood what had happened, he was furious, couldn't even handle such a small matter, and was making a fool of himself here. He glared fiercely at Captain, then spoke to Wang Linlin and Su Yue.

You don't need to mind him, from now on, you're not under his command, you are now part of our Special Task Force!" Ethan extended his hand to Wang Linlin and Su Yue with a smile.

Then what about the previous bet? It can't not count, right?" Su Yue looked at Ethan with a smile; he couldn't let this "good" Captain off the hook just because of Ethan's small favor.

What do you want to do?" Ethan was not surprised, after all, Su Yue could provide decisive clues in such a short time.

What do I want to do?" Su Yue pretended to be in a difficult position and looked at Captain, "what do you say I should do?"

Captain looked at Su Yue, immediately bowed ninety degrees, and said respectfully: "I'm sorry, I was ignorant before, please Special Agent Cui Minhe be lenient."

Su Yue smiled and said: "That's not necessary, let's stick to the bet!" Su Yue's meaning was very clear, which was to make him leave the Central Intelligence Agency, and let others see, that this is not a place where anyone can just bully others.

Okay, no problem, we'll do as you say! Then I welcome you to join the Special Task Force." The others couldn't tell at all that Ethan was the mastermind behind this.

What kind of Special Task Force is this?" Su Yue thought there were many Special Task Forces in the Central Intelligence Agency.

It's a Special Task Force established to target a highly skilled con artist internationally." Ethan explained to Su Yue.

Su Yue was stunned for a moment, could it be targeting himself? So, he's now supposed to catch himself?

This is too ridiculous! Who would have thought that Su Yue joined the Special Task Force targeting Su Yue?

Can I ask who this Special Task Force is targeting?" The Zheng Qi played by Wang Linlin had a somewhat neutral demeanor.

Ethan led them towards the Special Task Force area, and replied: "You should know Su Yue, right, our Special Task Force is targeting him. But recently there have been too many things, we haven't been able to keep an eye on Su Yue, we can only wait for him to show up." Ethan shook his head regretfully.

Wang Linlin secretly glanced at Su Yue several times, "I didn't expect you to be so famous," Wang Linlin mouthed.

Just so-so!" Su Yue also mouthed back to her.

Are you all quite annoyed with Su Yue?" Wang Linlin put on a disgusted expression, and even winked at Su Yue.

It's not that bad," Ethan seemed to recall various past events, "he is indeed a master, it's quite interesting to spar with a master!" and couldn't help but sigh, with so many people surrounding and intercepting him, they just couldn't catch him.

Oh, I see!" Wang Linlin secretly gave Su Yue a thumbs-up.

So, what's our mission now?" Su Yue, looking at Ethan's slightly disappointed expression, asked.

Ah, just handle cases. But the higher-ups said, as long as we solve the n-shaped file, we can be promoted to **, what exactly we'll do will be assigned then." Ethan inadvertently revealed all the information to Su Yue.

The chess game he had set up appeared in Su Yue's mind.

The first simulated general election was about to begin, the news from over there hadn't been revealed yet. Getting promoted here would save him a lot of effort. It seems, he had to think about this n-shaped file carefully.

Ethan, who are these two?" The Special Task Force was to the right of James's room; going to the Special Task Force required passing James's room.

Hello, Director," Ethan explained, "these two are the detectives who provided important clues in the previous case, and have been exceptionally promoted to the Special Task Force."

James glanced at Wang Linlin and Su Yue, didn't become suspicious, and then asked: "Is there still no news about Lyon and Gao Xiang?" James and the North Koreans have almost finished talking, now they plan to make Nep the scapegoat.

After all, James had evidence that Nep's younger brother was a key member of the strike organization.

Su Yue inadvertently heard this news; although he had expected it, he didn't expect to see James's dejected appearance with his own eyes.

It's truly satisfying, this Director of the Central Intelligence Agency who plotted against countless people, ultimately reaped what he sowed. Of course, the final punishment hasn't arrived yet!

Ethan, what do we plan to do next?" Su Yue looked at Ethan leading them to the Special Task Force office, but there was only Ethan here.

The two of you handle the n-shaped file first, the files are all on the table on the right. I still want to try keeping an eye on Su Yue! Even though I'm the only one left now!"
