No one knew where the smoke that suddenly filled the entire place came from, as if it suddenly filled the entire space out of thin air.
Moreover, this cloud of smoke has a very irritating smell. People inside will cough violently and cry crazily from the corners of their eyes, making it impossible for them to move normally.
Qin Tian was not affected much by the smoke. He quickly ran in the direction where Mr. Ye was just now and found that there was no one here.
Moreover, the surrounding smoke was so thick that no one could even see his raised hand, and Qin Tian had no idea where Mr. Ye ran or in which direction he escaped.
Qin Tian ran for a long time in the smoke, but in the end he couldn't find any trace of the other party.
After about a few minutes, the smoke on the field finally began to dissipate. Slowly, Qin Tian also saw Li Jinrui, Chen Ze, and many soldiers from the security office.
Ten minutes later, the smoke completely dissipated, and the smoke was just the same as when it appeared. There was no trace of the smoke left.
However, as the smoke dissipated, there were also the bodies left behind by Master Ye and members of the Snake Sect.
All of them disappeared. If the scene was not in a mess and there were traces of bullets everywhere, people would even think that everything they saw and happened just now was just a dream.
Li Jinrui and Chen Ze came to Qin Tian and said to Qin Tian while looking around.
"Mr. Qin, how are you? Are you injured?"
"That Master Ye..."
After hearing this, Qin Tian shook his head and said a little ashamed.
"Sorry, I let the man named Ye escape. Nothing happened to me. It was my failure to catch him that made everyone's efforts for such a long time in vain."
Li Jinrui gently patted Qin Tian's shoulder and comforted him.
"Mr. Qin, you don't need to blame yourself. You have put in enough efforts for this operation. It's because our combat power is too weak. If we can get rid of the cannon fodder in Shemen early, we can help you catch that Ye Daren in time. ”
"Besides, our return this time is not without success. At least we know that the big shots in Shemen have unique strengths."
"I saw that you and Mr. Ye were inseparable just now. Could it be that he also..."
Although Li Jinrui didn't finish his words, Qin Tian certainly understood what he meant.
Qin Tian nodded lightly and said calmly.
"Yes, he should be the same as me, possessing powerful kung fu and strength, but what he possesses is not his hometown kung fu, but an extremely strong body."
"During the battle with him just now, I have been testing, trying to figure out where his ability comes from and how powerful his body is."
"But it's a pity that he never showed any flaws, and his body makes me feel that there is no difference from ordinary people, but he is very strong."
Qin Tian's brows furrowed tightly as he said this, looking puzzled.
"Forget it Mr. Qin, everyone has left anyway, let's just clean up the battlefield first and don't think so much."
"I will go back and report the situation here to the security office and Lin Qingyun. If you have anything new, you can always come to me and tell me. Xiao Chen and I will go up first."
After saying this, Li Jinrui took Chen Ze directly back to the stronghold behind him. They had to clean everything here as soon as possible and prepare to evacuate after reporting what just happened.
Now that today's battle has ended, this stronghold that originally belonged to the Snake Sect has no use value.
After Master Ye leaves, he will definitely tell the people of Shemen that this stronghold has been taken over by the security agency, so Shemen will definitely not fall into this trap again.
Soon everyone from the security office began to clean the battlefield at the scene. The battle that just broke out was very fierce and had been discovered by some ordinary people.
Therefore, we must quickly block the news before the news here is completely spread and the influence expands. We must not affect the normal order of the port city because of this incident.
So it didn't take long for many cars to completely surround the place, and the cordon was also raised. Ordinary people had no way to enter this area, and naturally they had no idea what was going on inside.
As for how to explain what happened here, Lin Qingyun naturally has his own way.
For example, describe the movement here as a car accident or an explosion caused by a car accident, or say that a fire ignited the fireworks warehouse, which made the crackling sound just now.
Such an explanation would definitely be far-fetched if placed outside my hometown, and even many people would not believe it.
However, due to the strict control of thermal weapons in their hometown and the security office, residents in their hometown rarely or rarely see a thermal weapon once in their lifetime.
Everything everyone knows about thermal weapons is from film and television works. Naturally, there is no way to accurately distinguish the difference between the sound of a gunshot and other sounds.
In addition, all insiders will sign confidentiality agreements, so no one will leak what is going on here, and naturally no one will know the truth.
Just as everyone in the security office was cleaning the battlefield, Qin Tian suddenly heard a surprised call coming from a distance.
"Mr. Qin, come here quickly and see what this is!"
After hearing this, Qin Tian, who was about to go upstairs to evacuate with Li Jinrui, suddenly became energetic and rushed towards the soldier who was greeting him.
After arriving at his side, the soldier from the security office handed a badge in his hand to Qin Tian's hand, and then said lightly.
"When I was cleaning the battlefield here just now, I noticed something strange on the ground. When I picked it up, I found it was a badge."
"Mr. Qin, this badge seems to be owned only by members of the Shenmen, but it is different from the badges worn by ordinary members of the Shenmen. I think this thing must be of great use to you."
After hearing this, Qin Tian smiled slightly, patted the man's shoulder gently and nodded.
"You did a great job. It's a big help to be able to pick this up!"
Being praised by Qin Tian, the staff of the security office also seemed to smile very happily.
"Haha, Mr. Qin, what are you talking about? It's an honor for me to be able to work by your side. Since this thing can help you, then you can accept it."
"As for the specific purpose of this thing and other things, I won't tell others."
Qin Tian didn't say anything more, put the badge in his pocket and returned to the small building behind him.
The process of cleaning the battlefield lasted for several hours, and after they left, professionals would come over to completely erase the traces of the previous battles.
Otherwise, if ordinary people come here and find traces of bullet holes and explosions everywhere, they will definitely arouse suspicion.
Finally, Li Jinrui, Qin Tian and others cleaned up the battlefield and were ready to leave and return to the security office.
On the way back, Qin Tian, Li Jinrui and Chen Ze were still riding in the same car, and there was no fourth person in the car.
At this time, Qin Tian mentioned to Li Jinrui what Lord Ye said when he fought with him before, especially the words that invited him to join on behalf of the snakes.
"The man named Ye said that Shemen is very interested in me and hopes that I can join Shemen and work with them. Lao Li, how do you think I should handle this matter?"
If you were an ordinary person, you might be shocked when you hear Qin Tian's words, and you might even think that Qin Tian is considering joining the Snake Sect.
But for Li Jinrui, who has conducted many operations with Qin Tian and knows Qin Tian very well, he knows very well that Qin Tian does not mean this at all.
Li Jinrui thought for a moment and immediately understood the meaning of Qin Tian's words, smiled softly and said.
"I believe that Mr. Qin, you are definitely not colluding with the people of the Snake Sect. You are considering whether to use this opportunity to pretend to join the Snake Sect and spy on the information from the inside of the Snake Sect, right?"
Qin Tian smiled slightly and seemed very satisfied.
"As expected of you, Lao Li. If it were anyone else, I would definitely not understand what I meant, haha."
"Yes, I just want to ask you whether I should join the Snake Sect first, and then find enough information before leaving from there."
"But I feel that even if I approached people from the Shenmen in the past and told them that I wanted to join them, they would definitely be on guard against me. At least for a long period of time, it would be impossible for me to have access to the core secrets of the Shenmen,"
"And they will definitely monitor me and maybe even set a trap to lure me in."
"I'm thinking about whether the risks and benefits can be balanced, and whether it's worth it."
The car fell into silence. Chen Ze drove seriously and listened to the conversation between Qin Tian and his master.
Li Jinrui and Qin Tian were thinking about how to deal with these matters.
After a while, Li Jinrui said calmly.
"Mr. Qin, from a personal point of view, I am not willing to let you take such a risk and go deep into the Snake Gate alone to find out information."
"Actually, if we can catch Mr. Ye very smoothly today, and you can catch him easily, then I will never object to your opinion on this matter."
"But I also saw the battle between you and Mr. Ye before. Although I don't know how he did it, he has already restrained you with his own strength."
"There's nothing you two can do, but if you really go deep into the Snake Gate and enter their territory."
"Then no matter how they want to deal with you, you won't be able to get any help."
"So I suspect that this is a trap set by the Snake Gate. They want to lure you, Mr. Qin, into the Snake Gate, so that they can capture you alive and do some evil research."
"After all, there are countless people in the world who want to figure out the source of your power, so I think you must put your own life safety first, and it is absolutely impossible to take such a risk!"
Li Jinrui's answer made Qin Tian think about it. He also knew very well that Li Jinrui's words were very reasonable and he was thinking about himself.
It can be said that going deep into the Snake Gate is definitely not a wise choice, but Qin Tian looked at the badge lying quietly in his hand and was still a little unwilling to give up this opportunity.
And isn't doing this equivalent to telling Shemen in disguise that he is afraid?
Qin Tian is not a reckless man, but he definitely doesn't want others to look down on him.
Li Jinrui looked at Qin Tian's expression and knew that what he just said still failed to convince Qin Tian. Qin Tian was still hesitant about what to do.
However, Li Jinrui didn't say anything more after that, and he didn't continue to persuade Qin Tian.
Because Li Jinrui has unconditional trust in Qin Tian, he believes that Qin Tian will definitely make the most correct choice in the end.
And no matter what the choice is, he will serve as Qin Tian's strongest backing and do his best to help Qin Tian and provide convenience for Qin Tian.
After a while, Qin Tian, Li Jinrui and Chen Ze finally returned to the security office.
Qin Tian looked slightly ashamed when he saw Lin Qingyun, and even didn't know how to face the director of the security agency.
After all, in the past period of time, Lin Qingyun could be said to have been sitting in the security office in order to provide help to Qin Tian and Li Jinrui. He had no time to rest at all.
As a result, Qin Tian has not been able to capture Mr. Ye, which is equivalent to betraying Lin Qingyun's trust in him, and also wasting a lot of resources, manpower and material resources of the security office.
Seeing that Qin Tian didn't speak, Lin Qingyun came to Qin Tian, patted his shoulder gently and said lightly.
"Mr. Qin, you have done a good job this time, and you have tried your best. It is because we know nothing about Shemen, and there is no way to tell you in advance what kind of people those in Shemen have. Means and skills.”
"That's why you can't use this opportunity to catch Mr. Ye from the Shemen. If we can get more information about the Shemen and know Mr. Ye's true strength, I believe that with your ability, you will definitely not be able to catch him. There was a failure.”
"So you don't have to blame yourself at all. We will have many opportunities to deal with Shemen in the future. It doesn't matter if we missed this time, we can just catch him next time."
After hearing this, Qin Tian certainly knew that this was Lin Qingyun trying to comfort himself, but failure was failure.
No matter what others say, Qin Tian knows that the facts cannot be changed.
He did let Master Ye go but failed to catch him, so Qin Tian said with some shame.
"I'm really sorry everyone, I couldn't catch Mr. Ye, I'm sorry."
"But Director Lin is right. This is just a failure. We will definitely find many opportunities to deal with Shemen in the future."
"And it doesn't matter if you fail once. What's important is to be able to get back up after failure."
"Director Lin, let's call everyone to a meeting first. Although we failed this time, we still gained a lot." (End of Chapter)
