Chapter 185 Capture
Reading Settings
In the eyes of Chinese people, the Japanese always have boundless confidence, believing that they are omnipotent and that they use the most advanced technology.
While the Japanese often display arrogance by loudly proclaiming "Long live the Oshima Empire," the Chinese are more inclined towards the virtues of humility and restraint.
Shishi and Fu Yingzhou appeared to have left the villa, but in reality, they had secretly returned through the back door, accompanied by Zhang Feng and Lao San.
The group in the monitoring room naturally noticed Xiao Ai's furtive behavior.
The third brother was sent by Lu Chiye. This security system was installed by their company, and the third brother was in charge of the overall project. No one knew it better than him.
"Rest assured, no jammer can affect the villa's security monitoring system."
The third brother said with great confidence.
He wasn't lying. Kong Fang, that big-headed fool, handed Xiao Ai a glass of water. When he wasn't looking, Xiao Ai secretly slipped a small pill between her fingers.
Shi Shi instinctively shouted "Don't drink!" before realizing that Kong Fang couldn't hear her!
Fu Yingzhou patted her shoulder and said reassuringly, "Her methods are very sophisticated; she must be a professional spy. She wouldn't be so stupid as to commit murder here, leaving many loopholes. The cup probably contained some kind of drug."
Xiao Ai's medicine worked quickly. As they spoke, Kong Fang shook his head and began to stagger. The girl named Xiao Ai stepped forward to support him and led him to a nearby sofa to rest.
Shi Shi frowned and asked anxiously, "What do we do now? Are we just going to watch her run wild?"
Zhang Feng said, "Don't worry, I'll go downstairs and follow her now. Let's see what she's up to." With that, he quickly went out.
After he left, everyone's attention returned to Xiao Ai on the screen. She rolled up one sleeve, revealing a wide headband on her wrist. She removed the headband and quickly gathered her long, flowing hair into a tight knot—so tightly that not a single strand would fall out. She hurried towards the stairs.
While he was going upstairs, the third brother spoke up, "Before we came, the eldest brother said that if there's anything I can do to help, just let me know. Why don't I take this opportunity to wake Kong Fang up and move him to a safe place?"
The eldest son's pursuit of his wife is a long and arduous journey, so why doesn't he lend a hand and improve his wife's family's impression of him?
Shi Shi knew this wasn't the time for empty politeness. She looked at the third brother with gratitude and said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work."
After the third brother left, Fu Yingzhou quickly locked the door to the monitoring room. Although the villa had many rooms, what if that woman came over? Although China has always had a gun ban, who could guarantee that no one would slip through the net?
"I hope Zhang Feng and Lao San will be alright!" Shi Shi has always been a law-abiding citizen and never imagined that espionage would actually happen in her life. It all seems a bit fantastical.
"Don't worry, Zhang Feng is legally carrying a gun. The third brother is wearing a bulletproof vest and has a baton on his waist, and he's quite skilled."
"Kong Fang, you've been drugged!" Kong Fang heard the voice in a daze and suddenly woke up, trying to push the third brother away.
Unfortunately, the third child was too big, and he couldn't budge it after one push...
Xiao Ai, who was upstairs, quickly observed the layout of the entire villa, made some deductions, and then hurried towards Shishi's study.
Shishi's study is usually locked, and only she and Aunt Zhang's fingerprints can open it. The safe in the study contains not only her assets, but also her original songs.
Just as Xiao Ai was wondering if forcibly breaking the lock would directly trigger the alarm system, Zhang Feng spoke up from behind her: "Isn't this kind of behavior inappropriate when visiting someone's home?"
Xiao Ai's face turned deathly pale instantly, her eyes filled with panic. When did this person appear behind her? She hadn't even noticed!
Zhang Feng suggested, "If you run now, it will become attempted murder and fleeing the scene. If you get caught, guess what will happen to you? Why don't you give it a try?"
Xiao Ai inwardly groaned. Although she had infiltrated China for many years, today was her first official mission, and she hadn't expected to be caught off guard like this! Realizing that escape was probably impossible, a sliver of hope prevented her from surrendering easily. She gritted her teeth, a resolute glint in her eyes. Suddenly, she drew a gleaming dagger from her sleeve and thrust it at Zhang Feng without hesitation. The movement was lightning fast, catching everyone off guard.
However, Zhang Feng was no ordinary person. A former elite soldier, even after retirement, his reaction speed was still far beyond that of ordinary people. He flashed aside like a ghost, dodging Xiao Ai's sudden attack, and at the same time, he kicked out, accurately striking Xiao Ai's wrist.
With a crisp clang, the dagger fell to the ground, bounced a few times, and finally came to rest.
Xiao Ai's attack was swift, but Zhang Feng considered it child's play. However, she didn't give up. Knowing she couldn't escape today, she pounced on Zhang Feng before he could regain his footing and they became locked in a fierce battle.
Although Xiao Ai had received some martial arts training, her skills still seemed somewhat immature compared to a master like Zhang Feng. Zhang Feng easily dealt with Xiao Ai's attacks; every movement was perfectly timed, skillfully deflecting her offensives without giving her any chance to retaliate. Xiao Ai realized that her opponent was toying with her like a cat playing with a mouse, but she was helpless.
Before long, Xiao Ai's strength began to wane, and Zhang Feng, having had his fill of playing, finally delivered a beautiful over-the-shoulder throw, slamming Xiao Ai to the ground. Immediately afterward, Zhang Feng swiftly moved forward, pressing his knee down on Xiao Ai's back, rendering her immobile. He then pulled a pair of handcuffs from his waist and, with a "click," firmly cuffed Xiao Ai's hands.
She struggled, cursing in the Japanese language.
At this moment, the third brother arrived with Kong Fang. Kong Fang was still a little confused, rubbed his head, and asked, "What happened?"
Zhang Feng and the third brother exchanged a glance. They knew this was Shishi's cousin. Zhang Feng spoke first, "Let your sister tell you the details."
At this moment, Shi Shi and Fu Yingzhou also came over from the monitoring room.
Seeing Xiao Ai subdued, Shi Shi breathed a sigh of relief. "I didn't expect there really was a spy infiltrating," Shi Shi said, still shaken.
Fu Yingzhou comforted him, "It's alright, we're here."
Shi Shi looked at Xiao Ai, her eyes filled with anger: "Why did you do this?" Xiao Ai sneered: "For our Great Island Empire, everything you have will belong to us." Shi Shi shook her head, ignoring her, and turned to Zhang Feng and Lao San, saying: "Hand her over to the police, let the law punish her."
Zhang Feng said with a smile, "This matter is probably not under our jurisdiction. It will require the help of our brother unit."
Zhang Feng called the National Security Bureau, and shortly after, they arrived at the villa and took Xiao Ai away.
