Chapter 520: Qian Li’s Suspicion

/*unedited*/

The golden sun rose high up in the sky and bathes the whole land in its glory and warmth. The people in the city who are working outside busily go their own way and didn't mind others business. In this busy street, a young man can be seen walking towards a store and choosing some of the mobile phones on the display case.

Shin Jiao decided to buy his own phone and would try to connect online. Yes, that's right… when he asked a person after a quick scan on his way out of the hotel, he discovers that online information is already available in the city. In fact, this is true throughout the whole kingdom of Yi and even to the Imperial city of Xi and its boundary.

Hence he felt excited and decided to buy a phone as that man he asked a while ago is using one. He would not dare ask that person to borrow his phone so he just observes him for a while and learn how it is done.

Shin Jiao chose a fairly good phone that is able to connect online.

"This would be good, with this I can reverse engineer it and use my own phone for browsing." He thought as he picks the phone and bought it.

When the sales personnel saw this, he just shook his head. Deep in his heart, he can tell that Shin Jiao is from the countryside or some low tech city and is not well-versed when it comes to technology. However, how could he know that Shin Jiao's contact lenses are already advance enough that if he shows this technology to Shin City they would beg him to sell this to them at any price?

But of course, he would not tell anyone about that.

After buying Shin Jiao walked out of the store but a mischievous smile appears on his face. He has already seen someone following behind him stealthily.

If it was any other person, they might have not noticed this person as the person is well-versed when it comes to following someone. The technique is a textbook perfect ability and is very inconspicuous. But how could he not know about it? He was the one who taught this technique to the shadow squad members.

"This person is a member of the shadow squad group or something since he knew how to hide his presence and observation well. He even knows how to use his spiritual sense stealthily… What a good soldier." Shin Jiao admired.

And so he continues walking towards a bend. And when he reaches the bend, he suddenly disappears.

This caught the person following him off-guard.

"Delta 1… This is Tail, I lose track of the target… Please locate him immediately…" the man said in a low tone.

But there was no response.

"Delta 1, this is Tail, I repeat I lost track of the target… Please assist in locating the target."

Thissh! Rrrerrk! *radio crackling noise…

The sound of static can be heard from his hidden earpiece. Which made the man squinted his eyes in suspicion; his gut feeling is telling him that there is something wrong.

But before he can move, he heard some noise on the other line.

'*radio crackling noise… Target… *radio crackling noise … you… *radio crackling noise … behind… *radio crackling noise … Tail… *radio crackling noise… watch… *radio crackling noise… back!'

A frantic female voice can be heard in the middle of the distortion and noises.

This made him feel alarmed; hence he decided to look behind him. However, it was already too late.

Meanwhile, inside a black van with express delivery service written outside, a group of people are looking at the monitor.

The woman with a headphone keeps pressing the button on the keyboard and is frantically saying.

"Tail your target is behind you! I repeat he is behind you! Tail! Come in! You should watch your back, I repeat watch your back!" her frantic voice made the people in the van have their attention at the monitoring screen.

They can see that the green dot which is their agent code-named Tail, not moving from his spot. Then a red dot suddenly appears behind him. Although there are many dots in the area, this dot is suspicious, and this only means that this is their target.

"Is Serpent-116 in danger?" a woman asked with worry in her eyes.

"I don't know. But since his dot is still there, it only means that he is still alive." The operator said while biting her lower lip.

In fact, she is also not sure of what is happening.1

"Let's me and Qilin-110 go… We will assess the situation and act as a backup." A young man said and beside him is another young man who also nodded his head.

"… Okay… but if there is danger, you should report back. General Li said that the man we are following is a very powerful person. So we should be wary of him. And no conflict should arise." The operator warned the two young men.

With a nod of their head, they jump out of the van and immediately headed towards the location of their comrade.

"Serpent-113, Qilin-110, Tail is on the move… but the target is nowhere. He just banished. Look on your right, you should be seeing Tail now." The operator said.

The two young men turn to the right and saw Serpent-116 unharmed so they both heave a sigh of relief. They were worried about their friend that they decided to go out and help him.

As they walked closer, they saw the panic in their friend's eyes and felt a bit odd.

"Hey, 116… where is the target?" Serpent-113 which has a closer friendship with Serpent-116 asked casually.

But Serpent-116 didn't say anything and just nudge his head return.

"We have to return, the target is already gone… He… he suddenly vanished in front of me…"

"What? Really?"

The group returns to the van and Serpent-116 reported to the operator.

The van then drives away and the team reached an inconspicuous 4-story building. Unknown to the team, a figure is currently hovering in the air and looking at their direction.

Shin Jiao has already scanned the building and a beautiful figure appears in his sense. The woman is sitting on her desk while reading some reports. Occasionally she would glance at the mobile and private phone on her desk as if waiting for someone.

"Qian Li… Hmm… Maybe she can help me, locate them." He muttered but still decided against it as he didn't want to have any contact with his old people yet.

Shin Jiao just land on some corner of the building and began to dismantle the phone on his hand. Then after learning its function he began to reverse engineer it and then took out his own phone and created the right signal code for it to be able to connect online.

However, what he discovers next made him feel a bit disappointed. Although he has learned about the appearance of Mary and her group, he has not heard of Susan Tang yet. Hence he was a bit worried now. He has already tried using the radio and all means of contact, but it seems that it is not effective.

Without a choice, he now needs to meet Qian Li to get any information.

…

Shadow Squad branch headquarters in Yi city

Inside the tall building, a woman is sitting behind a desk while tapping her fingers on the table. In front of her are 5 people with a worried expression on their faces. They are the branch heads of the Yi city branch of the Shadow Squad.

Even since its inception, the shadow squad has been working in the shadows. And many people are not aware of its existence. Even some of the people in the higher-ups are not aware of them. But in truth, the Shadow Squad is a very huge organization with around hundreds of thousands of members. They have different branches all over the three kingdoms and even the imperial capital.

But the empire didn't bother with them, and sometime the two would even cooperate just to take down their enemies. Hence the existence of the Shadow Squad became really strong. And to strengthen this existence and so that the empire would not go against them is also one of the reasons why Qin Lou decided to be married to the crown prince of Xi, Prince Li Yan Xi.

And the person with the highest authority in the Shadow Squad is the legendary Fairy herself, the silver-haired punisher, Qian Li.

And now the heads of the branch didn't dare to say anything while waiting for the great general to finish reading their reports.

"Everything is good… I commend the 5 of you for a job well done…"

Everyone who is in a tense situation seems to have the weights on their shoulder lessen as they heave a sigh of relief. Although their job is a bit tense and sometimes hard and dangerous, it is a well-paid job and their families are able to live a good life. Plus they can gain the training most sought after by many. Everyone in the Shadow Squad is it be cultivator or mage, has reached a high cultivation level due to the training the agency provided. Hence many wanted to enter but only a few can be accepted.

"However, I was a bit disappointed with the situation with the local gangs…" Qian Li said with a frown.

"Ugh… general Li… this is a bit hard. We… we cannot touch the gang due to the involvement of the 3rd prince of the Yi kingdom… as you see they are actually the 3rd prince's people. So, it would be hard to raise a conflict with them." A middle-aged man said with beads of sweat on his forehead.

"Che… If you cannot settle it with words, use the Phoenix or the Fairy team…" when she said this everyone in the room gasped in disbelief.

The fairy and phoenix teams are special teams in the Shadow Squad. This is because they are experts when it comes to the assassination and total destruction of their target, once either of these two teams moves, then it is sure that there would be bloodshed.

Qian Li just smirk and didn't say anything anymore.

"Oh, by the way… You must be careful… I think there is someone in the city with unfathomable strength… I advise you to act with caution. As of now, I am trying to monitor that person…"
