245: Chapter 245 Breakthrough Chen Mo, Dragon Kingdom's Rescue Operation!

Meanwhile, Sister Hong's shop was heavily cordoned off by police tape, and several armed police officers were meticulously searching the shop inside and out, not missing a single corner.

At this moment, inside the National Security safe house, Ye Qingcheng walked into the confinement room where Chen Mo was being held. Her gaze, sharp as a torch, fell upon him as she said in a deep voice, "Not bad, Chen Mo. I really didn't expect your organization to care so much about you. It seems you really are hiding quite a few secrets."

Chen Mo had been severely taught a lesson by Ye Qingcheng over the past few days. Although he was bruised and swollen, there was not a shred of fear in his eyes. He opened his eyes, looked at Ye Qingcheng with disdain, and retorted with a cold laugh, "What do you mean?"

Ye Qingcheng smiled lightly, but there was no warmth in that smile. "I originally didn't want to tell you, but since you consistently refuse to reveal the hidden location of Hongmen and your method of communication, I will tell you the truth. Aren't your wife and child both on Volcano Island?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo's heart sank, as if pressed down by a giant boulder. He stared intently at Ye Qingcheng, forcing himself to remain calm as he said, "So what if they are? That's not in Dragon Country. Even if you know, what can you do?"

Ye Qingcheng let out a cold laugh that echoed in the cramped confinement room, sounding exceptionally harsh. "Heh, yes, you're right. Under normal circumstances, it wouldn't be convenient for us to do anything. However, the organization you serve doesn't seem to want you to live, nor your wife and child."

Hearing this, Chen Mo's face turned pale instantly, and a trace of terror flashed in his eyes. He struggled desperately, trying to get up, but his hands and feet were all handcuffed to the iron bed frame, and no matter how hard he tried, it was all in vain.

He panted heavily and asked with a trembling voice, "What do you mean?"

Watching Chen Mo's struggle, a trace of pity flashed in Ye Qingcheng's eyes. "To tell you the truth, your wife and child are currently under the control of a local Gang in the United States and are in danger at any moment. And the one who ordered the local Gang to do this is Hongmen!"

Chen Mo's pupils contracted sharply, as if struck by lightning. He stared fixedly at Ye Qingcheng, his voice trembling so much it was almost unintelligible. "Impossible! Don't think you can sow discord."

Seeing Chen Mo's reaction, Ye Qingcheng knew she had touched his soft spot. She took out her phone, her fingertips quickly operating on the screen, and then displayed the screen in front of Chen Mo. "Whether it's possible or not, just see for yourself."

On the screen were photos of the local American Gang operating around his house.

In front of the house, behind the house, and even through the windows, one could see several Black men holding guns, moving about inside his home.

Looking at these photos, Chen Mo's body trembled involuntarily, and tears seemed to be welling up in his eyes.

Ye Qingcheng keenly captured the change in Chen Mo's expression. She slowly withdrew her phone, her gaze revealing a hint of helplessness and sympathy.

She shook her head gently and sighed, "Now, you finally understand, right? Our original plan was to secretly bring your wife and child back and use them as a bargaining chip to pry open your mouth. It's a pity, I also didn't expect your organization to be so despicable as to not even spare the families of their own people."

Chen Mo suddenly lost control of his emotions, yelling almost hysterically at Ye Qingcheng, "Impossible! He promised me he would take good care of my family!" His voice was filled with despair and unwillingness.

Watching Chen Mo's loss of control, Ye Qingcheng couldn't help but feel a pang of emotion. She said in a deep voice, "Chen Mo, oh Chen Mo, are you naive or truly stupid? Do you know what happened today?"

Chen Mo couldn't care about much else now. With a voice clearly trembling, he nervously pressed, "What happened? Did something happen to my wife and child?"

Ye Qingcheng took a deep breath, trying to make her tone sound as calm as possible. "Rest assured, our field agents have already sent back word that your wife and child are temporarily safe. However, their future safety depends on your attitude." As she spoke, she turned on the recording function on her phone and played the words of the masked man in black from earlier.

The voice of the masked man in black echoed in the confinement room. Upon hearing it, Chen Mo's expression changed drastically. He thought to himself, "Boss, how could he appear..."

After the recording ended, Ye Qingcheng stared intently into Chen Mo's eyes. "You heard it, right? I guess you must know him. This person is a wanted criminal in our Dragon Country and also the boss of your four-man group, right?"

Chen Mo had lost his composure now. He shook his head hesitantly, "I... I don't know!" However, his flickering eyes and trembling voice betrayed him.

Seeing this, Ye Qingcheng sneered inwardly. She stepped closer and said sternly, "Chen Mo, don't harbor any more wishful thinking. You heard what he said just now; his mission is to see your corpse with his own eyes. If you still don't cooperate with us, then your wife and child will definitely go with you. Things have reached this point; you only have two choices: either cooperate with us and save your family, or face the destruction of your family!"

Hearing this, Chen Mo's hands gripped the iron bed frame tightly, his whole body trembling uncontrollably due to extreme anger.

His eyes had turned blood red, as if he might lose his sanity at any moment. However, he knew that Ye Qingcheng was right. Since the boss had come, he was dead either way, but his wife and child were innocent. He must let them live!

After a long while, Chen Mo slowly raised his head, his blood-red eyes staring fixedly at Ye Qingcheng. "Since the boss has come, my life surely cannot be saved. However,"

Speaking to this point, he paused, his voice suddenly becoming exceptionally firm. "I only ask that you can spare the lives of my wife and child!" He continued, word by word, "I want to see them safe and sound! Otherwise, even if I die, I won't utter a single word!"

Looking at Chen Mo's resolute gaze, Ye Qingcheng knew he had made his choice. She took a deep breath and solemnly promised, "I can agree to that! As long as you can fully cooperate with us and provide useful information, I will definitely do everything in my power to save your wife and child and bring them safely back to Dragon Country!"

Having said this, she paused for a moment and added, "But before that, shouldn't you tell me some useful information? For example, who are the other members of your four-man group? This way I can confirm how much you actually know and how valuable you are. Otherwise, how am I supposed to convince our Dragon Country's high-level officials to execute this cross-border rescue operation!"

Under Ye Qingcheng's intense gaze, Chen Mo fell into silence again. Ye Qingcheng was not in a hurry, just quietly waiting for Chen Mo's response.

A moment later, Chen Mo finally made up his mind and spoke slowly, "Fine! I'll talk!"

Subsequently, Chen Mo took a deep breath and began to explain the situation of the members of the Hongmen underground dark web four-man group one by one.

"Our dark web four-man group is a secret organization planted in Dragon Country by Hongmen, specifically responsible for infiltrating powerful and well-connected upper-class figures in Dragon Country."

"We four are ranked according to our Realm and strength. The boss, Zhang Yu, is a Peak Anjin expert with mysterious whereabouts; usually, he takes the initiative to contact us, and we cannot contact him. The second, Hong Ying, has the strength of the Late Stage of Ming Jin, is a retired special forces soldier, and is skilled in disguise and combat techniques. I don't have much contact with her, but she gives me a very dangerous feeling. The third, Zhang Min, has the cultivation of the Middle Stage of Ming Jin, is skilled in using hidden weapons, and has a flexible and agile mind. As for me..."

Speaking to this point, Chen Mo smiled bitterly, "Ranked last, with the strength of the Middle Stage of Ming Jin. I have said everything I should. As for more information, once you fulfill your promise, rescue my family, and ensure they are safe, I will naturally explain everything clearly!"

Hearing Chen Mo mention the name Sister Hong, Ye Qingcheng believed his words by eighty percent. After all, she had never mentioned the name Hong Ying to Chen Mo, and the recording just now did not mention Sister Hong.

"Fine! I agree! Remember what you said!" Ye Qingcheng said, turned around, and walked out.

...

Walking outside the door, Ye Qingcheng immediately picked up her phone and dialed the Security Bureau chief's number again.

The call was quickly connected, and Ye Qingcheng reported the information Chen Mo had just confessed to the chief in detail.

"Zhang Yu?!" On the other end of the phone, the chief repeated the name of codename X, seemingly searching for this person in his memory, but ultimately returning empty-handed. "This name is indeed somewhat unfamiliar to me; I feel like it has never appeared in our intelligence files."

Ye Qingcheng could understand the chief's confusion, but she didn't give the chief too much time to think, immediately adding, "Chief, what do you think about the strategy I mentioned to you before? Now that Chen Mo has agreed to cooperate with us, as long as we can rescue his family, I guarantee that Hongmen's secrets will be unearthed very soon!"

The chief was silent on the other end of the phone for a while, clearly weighing the pros and cons. After a good while, he slowly spoke, his voice carrying a hint of worry, "Qingcheng, I understand what you mean, but the risk of this plan is not small. Rashly deploying the navy is very likely to cause international disputes, and if one is not careful, a skirmish could even occur."

Ye Qingcheng had long anticipated that the chief would have such concerns, and she immediately retorted, "Chief, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us. Moreover, there will never be a second chance like this."

The other end of the phone fell into silence again.

After a long time, the chief's voice finally sounded again, "Fine! Qingcheng, I agree to your plan. I will report this situation to the higher-ups immediately. Wait for my news!"

Hearing this, Ye Qingcheng breathed a slight sigh of relief, "Yes! Chief, I will await your instructions."

The phone call was then hung up. The Security Bureau chief took a deep breath and then picked up the red phone on his desk.

...

Time passed minute by minute, and the atmosphere in the Dragon Country high-level conference room was heavy.

After receiving the emergency call from the Security Bureau chief, the high-level leaders immediately put down their work and held an emergency meeting.

About half an hour later, a Dragon Country ocean-going training fleet far away in the central Pacific Ocean received a top-secret order from Beijing. The fleet commander immediately issued instructions, and the entire fleet went full throttle, like an arrow off a bowstring, advancing at full speed toward Volcano Island.

Meanwhile, on Volcano Island, the night was as dark as ink, 18 hours behind Dragon Country, and the Dragon Country Security Bureau's overseas special operations team also quietly launched their operation.

Four well-trained members, dressed in black combat uniforms with camouflage paint on their faces, hugged the walls and silently approached Chen Mo's house.

Suddenly, a beam of flashlight light at the top of the second-floor stairs cut through the darkness. That person seemed to have noticed something and was about to shout. But before the sound could escape, the fingers of the special operations team members had already gently pulled the triggers.

"Bang!" A dull gunshot with a silencer rang out in the room, and the bullet accurately struck the person's forehead.

The flashlight in the person's hand slipped instantly, rolling down the stairs with a clatter, making a 'clanging' sound.

This disturbance instantly alerted the Gang members in the room. They woke up from their deep sleep, and the room was suddenly brightly lit.

Seeing intruders, those Gang members immediately grabbed the weapons beside them and, like headless flies, fired indiscriminately at the operations team members.

However, how could these Gang thugs be any match for the special operations team members?

The four operations team members were agile, dodging the incoming bullets while their weapons constantly returned fire.

In just a few minutes, the four of them shot all the Gang members to the ground, leaving them unable to move.

Subsequently, two operations team members stayed behind to guard the thugs, while the other two quickly went upstairs.

In the room on the second floor, Chen Mo's wife and child were huddled in the corner of the bed, watching the door in terror.

The commotion downstairs filled their faces with fear and helplessness, their bodies trembling nervously from fear.

When the special operations team members kicked open the door and appeared before them, the wife and child were immediately tearful. Chen Mo's wife hugged her son tightly, begging continuously, "Don't kill me, don't kill me..."

Seeing this, the special operations team member comforted them softly, "Don't be afraid, we are here to save you." As he spoke, he quickly stepped forward to untie them and handed them some clothing.

Chen Mo's wife took the clothing, her hands still trembling slightly. She looked nervously at the person and asked, "Who are you? Did Chen Mo send you to save us?" Her voice carried a hint of crying, but more of it was anticipation.

The operations team member nodded, "We are from Dragon Country. Now is not the time to talk about these things. You must leave with us immediately. Once we reach a safe place, we will naturally explain everything clearly to you."

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo's wife immediately wiped away her tears and nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay, okay, I believe you, I believe you." As she spoke, she picked up the child who was still sobbing in her arms and followed the special operations team member closely out of the room.

Subsequently, under the cover of the four special operations team members, Chen Mo's wife and child successfully escaped from that dangerous house and quickly drove toward the harbor.

In the car, Chen Mo's wife looked back at the receding house, her heart filled with mixed feelings for a moment.

Suddenly, a loud "Boom" came, and the house she had originally been living in was instantly swallowed by flames. Those Gang thugs who had already lost their ability to move were all wiped out in the explosion, all buried in the sea of fire.

Immediately afterward, the sound of sirens came from afar, drawing closer, as police cars and fire trucks headed toward the exploding house. And in the midst of this chaos, Chen Mo's wife and child, under the cover of the special operations team members, successfully arrived at the harbor.

At the harbor, a speedboat was already prepared. The special operations team members helped Chen Mo's wife and child onto the speedboat, and then they all boarded the boat themselves. The speedboat cut through the sea in the night, heading toward the high seas at full speed.

...

Another hour or so passed. At 1:15 PM Dragon Country time, Chen Mo's wife and child successfully boarded the Dragon Country's ocean-going training fleet.

Following that, in the Dragon Country high-level conference room, the red phone rang, and the news that Chen Mo's wife and child had been successfully rescued was transmitted back.
