ABMB Chapter 62

Shan Hai acted with considerable caution; the only time they were detected by the MIB was three years ago.

That was when the head of the General Affairs Section of the Investigation Department of the MIB, while compiling data at the end of the year, discovered that the information about Lu Bochuan, which had been sealed away after Guo Pei’s death, had suddenly been unsealed.

Lu Bochuan’s information was considered confidential, accessible only to the head of the General Affairs Section and a very few people above him.

The head of the General Affairs Section immediately understood that a traitor must have infiltrated the MIB.

She remained outwardly calm while secretly investigating.

She quickly discovered this person.

It was the commander’s assistant.

She had access to permissions and could discreetly enter the archives.

Before finding evidence, the head of the General Affairs Section immediately interrogated her.

Surprisingly, she confessed to what she had done without much effort from the head of the General Affairs Section.

She admitted to stealing the commander’s permissions, sneaking into the archives, copying Lu Bochuan’s information, and giving it to someone.

Moreover, she very cooperatively drew a portrait of this person.

She said this person was her friend and needed Lu Bochuan’s information.

The assistant had also checked these materials before handing them over, knowing that it concerned a dead person, and felt that giving this person’s information wouldn’t significantly affect the MIB.

The following is a dialogue.

Head of the General Affairs Section: “Why did you help him?”

“Because it was a friend’s request. This information is just a few scraps of paper in the MIB’s warehouse, but it’s very important to him.”

“Did he say what he needed these materials for?”

“No. He said knowing too much would be dangerous for me.”

“Oh? Since he’s so important to you, why did you betray him so easily?”

“I didn’t betray him. He said that if anything happened, I didn’t need to hide anything for him and should prioritize myself.”

Bai Wu couldn’t help but look at a portrait placed with the file; it was drawn based on the assistant’s description.

The portrait depicted a young woman who looked to be about twenty-five years old. Her features were mixed, and her eyes were deep, making her quite attractive. No wonder the young woman was captivated.

The assistant answered all the head of the General Affairs Section’s questions without reservation and detailed how many times she had met the man and where the meetings took place.

An investigation revealed that what the assistant said was indeed true.

They also conducted a physical examination of the assistant, confirming that she was just an ordinary person, and didn’t make things difficult for her.

The head of the General Affairs Section went to find that person based on the portrait, but he had obviously realized he was about to be exposed and had already fled.

However, the head of the General Affairs Section didn’t come away empty-handed; there was also someone who didn’t have time to escape. The information said this person was the man’s subordinate.

They also learned about the Shan Hai organization from him.

The information showed that the subordinate was also a normal person, but was bewitched by the man, which is why he helped him.

However, he didn’t know much about what the woman was going to do.

Later, the investigation into that man lasted a whole year, but the person seemed to have evaporated from the face of the earth, with no news at all.

Because the woman’s actions didn’t actually cause any damage to the MIB, the matter was dropped.

“Not only that, but his subordinate confessed everything at the first questioning by the MIB. He said it was because the woman had said beforehand that if anything happened, he didn’t need to hide anything for him and should prioritize himself.

Moreover, even after being caught, the subordinate insisted that the man was a good person.”

Bai Wu looked at the assistant’s dialogue with the head of the General Affairs Section in the information, and again at that sentence.

“So, where are the assistant and that man’s subordinate now?”

“Because things didn’t reach such a severe point, and they were extremely cooperative, they were released after a few days. Of course, the assistant, having done such a thing, was embarrassed to continue working at the MIB and soon resigned voluntarily.

Later, the commander also sent people to track them, wanting to confirm whether what they said was true and whether that man would come looking for them later. The fact is, that person never came to find them again. He didn’t even appear in this city again.”

Bai Wu’s fingers couldn’t help but tap on the car door handle: “How could a dead person disappear like this for so many years?”

“That’s right, so there’s another possibility: he’s not human.”

Bai Wu’s fingers stopped, and he turned to look at him: “Why are you scolding people?”

Cheng Miao clicked his tongue: “Are you sick?”

“You’re scolding people again.”

Cheng Miao was speechless. He found a place to stop the car: “Let’s eat here. I’m too lazy to run far.”

It was a farmers market, and at this time, there were very few people coming and going.

Cheng Miao randomly chose a breakfast shop and ordered two bowls of beef noodles, a steamer of steamed dumplings, and a steamer of buns.

The breakfast shop wasn’t small, and it was full of seats.

While eating beef noodles, Bai Wu asked him what they were going to do later.

Cheng Miao only said that he would naturally know when they got there.

Bai Wu knew Cheng Miao’s personality; he liked to maintain this sense of mystery. The more curious Bai Wu was, the happier he felt.

So Bai Wu didn’t ask anymore.

After eating, the two set off again.

Bai Wu asked if there was any need to interrogate those two people again.

Cheng Miao said no; it had been three years, and if anything was going to happen, it would have happened long ago, so there was no need for them to investigate.

Asking him where they were going now, he only said that he would know when they got there.

Bai Wu gave up asking.

After about half an hour, the car entered a residential area.

Cheng Miao found a place to park the car, then went with Bai Wu into Unit 2 of Building 3, and pressed the elevator button for the seventh floor.

During this time, Bai Wu was quite puzzled the entire time. He had never been here before. Bai Wu and Cheng Miao shared the same social circle. Bai Wu didn’t know the people outside, and Cheng Miao shouldn’t know them either. What were they doing there?

Soon, the elevator arrived at the third floor, and Cheng Miao pressed the doorbell for room 703.

The two clearly had an appointment; after only waiting a few minutes, someone opened the door.

When she saw the two, she tentatively asked, “Are you?”

Cheng Miao took out his police ID: “Cheng Miao, the person who called yesterday.”

The man took the police ID, looked at it for a while, then made way for them: “Please come in.”

After putting on shoe covers, they followed the woman inside.

Bai Wu was confused and turned to look at Cheng Miao.

Cheng Miao said gently, “That’s usually the case, but because the circumstances of this incident are special, this is the only way.”

“Officer Cheng said on the phone that it was about Liu Yuqing?”

Cheng Miao nodded: “Just yesterday, we received a call from Miss Liu Yuqing’s uncle, who reported that Miss Liu Yuqing had been kidnapped, and the kidnappers said in the letter that if the police were notified, they would kill her.”
