He had indeed read the detailed information about the two people, but he still wanted to learn more from different people and from different perspectives.
"Emmm......"
Anselm Valencia clearly hadn't expected Cao Han to suddenly ask this question, but he still thought about it seriously.
It's worth noting that these two commissioners, who were representatives of the Kassel College stationed in Yekaterinburg, were personally received by him, so he still remembered them.
"There were two commissioners, a man named Lin Yang and a woman named Camilla."
"According to them, they were tracking down some information and happened to be passing through Yekaterinburg."
"The only thing I can't quite figure out is the strange feeling between these two..."
Lucy Pallas listened intently, immediately grasping the key point, and decisively asked, "What strange feeling?"
"To use a trendy term, the guy gave me a feeling of being a 'lapdog,' completely subservient and obedient to the woman."
The problem is that I checked through the academy's internal system and found that the man, Lin Yang, is actually the team leader, like a reversal of the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches.
What is an unexpected surprise?
This is what you call an unexpected surprise!
Cao Han never expected that his casual question would yield such unexpected results, as these were pieces of information that could not be fully expressed in writing.
Li Yang, male, 27 years old, Thai national, graduated in 99...
Camilla, female, 28 years old, Norwegian, graduated in 99...
Information about the two individuals' identities kept flashing through his mind.
The biggest problem is that this document does not record any relationship between the two that seems too intimate or abnormal.
It can only mean that both of them are very good at disguising themselves.
It's important to know that there are explicit rules in the Execution Department that prohibit two people with close relationships from carrying out missions together.
It's not that the people in the execution department are cold-hearted and heartless, but rather that it's easy for two people with a close relationship to act on their emotions when carrying out a mission together.
For example, if one person is in danger, the other person might act emotionally and be unwilling to survive alone, thus creating a buy-one-get-one-free situation.
Putting aside the negative impact of making a judgment based on emotions, the fact that "one died and one was sent away" is a loss that Kassel College cannot accept.
"It seems these two are becoming increasingly suspicious!"
Chapter 154 He brought this upon himself; it is unforgivable!
squeak--
The sound of tires screeching against the ground filled the air as a heavy snowmobile, like a bison, rampaged through the streets of Yekaterinburg. Passersby seemed unfazed by the spectacle, and it eventually came to a stop at a manor house with a rugged Baroque style.
At first glance, it exudes a sense of history.
"This is where Commissioners Lin Yang and Camilla stayed briefly after arriving in Yekaterinburg. It is also one of the bases of our Kassel College in this area."
I heard it's one of many residences owned by a school board member, but I suspect this board member has probably long forgotten he owns such a property in remote, cold Siberia.
Anselm Valencia cracked a joke to lighten the mood; he'd heard it from a senior alumnus who'd been stationed there before, as a casual anecdote.
"Those two executives seem quite calm and composed."
After entering and looking around the room where the two had stayed, Cao Han said the following.
"How did you get it?"
"If they were really in a hurry to escape and disappear, would they have packed everything up so neatly?" Cao Han asked rhetorically.
Anselm Valencia: ......
The fact that Cao Han could utter the word "clean" gives you an idea of what the room was like—it was so clean it was practically spotless, let alone leaving any useful traces behind.
"So what do we do next? Should we go back to the hotel, drop off our things, and then discuss this further?"
Lucy Pallas held the monkey tightly in her arms, afraid that the little guy would slip away if she wasn't careful. It was just a pity that her magnificent chest was squeezed out of shape.
They have been investigating non-stop since they got off the plane, but so far they have found nothing.
It can't be said that they gained nothing; at least they have now confirmed the identities of the group that attacked Senior Bear Novsky and his group, and there were definitely pure-blooded dragons present at the scene.
"Don't panic, I have other ideas. Anselm, you should be quite familiar with Yekaterinburg, right?"
Cao Han did not stop his investigation. Rescue is always better the sooner it is done. All clues have a certain time limit. If you go too late, even if you find something, it will likely be useless.
In such harsh, icy conditions, the only option is to race against time.
"That depends on what aspect you're referring to."
Anselm Valencia did not blindly make any guarantees; he was indeed Russian, but not a native of Yekaterinburg.
If you make a false promise but can't give an accurate answer, wouldn't that be contradicting yourself?
"Find me a map of this area, clearly mark the slums, the places where thugs and homeless people gather, then give us the snowmobile and you can stay here."
Cao Han had a premonition that the two agents who had disappeared had not left the town.
However, with Kassel College's informants in the city and the satellite surveillance that occasionally swept across the sky, the two, who were familiar with the school's operations, knew they absolutely could not appear in the open.
If they can't show their faces in the open, the only suitable places to hide are those filthy, mixed-up places.
Currently, there are only "doubts" surrounding the two individuals, and before there is substantial evidence proving that they have committed acts of betrayal, he is still willing to think of the positive side of human nature.
maybe......
The two men had discovered some terrible truth and, fearing they would be killed to silence them, had to go into hiding before they even reached Yekaterinburg.
"Well... I'm sorry, I only know about these places to a limited extent. Otherwise, let's use Norma's power."
The two-meter-tall, burly man awkwardly clasped his hands together. Anselm Valencia usually despised those stinking rats hiding in the shadows of the city.
These "scumbags" will bloom with a little sunshine and become famous with a little bit of color; he has always communicated with his fists.
No matter where you are, whether it's a developed city or not, there will always be a shadowy side to a place where the sun shines.
The gap between the rich and the poor blossoms particularly brightly in lands nourished by foreign capital.
This time, Cao Han and his partner's rescue mission was officially registered with the school's executive department, unlike the last time when they just made up an excuse to sneak off to Japan.
Therefore, Cao Han was able to experience the immediate technical support from the entire college's executive department's professional logistics team for the first time.
Even though the title of "honorary school board member" has no real power, at least it sounds impressive!
Which do you think is easier to accept and more likely to be given full support: providing logistical and technical support to a specialist or to an honorary trustee?
Less than three minutes.
Lucy Pallas received a map of Yekaterinburg on her phone from Norma, which thoughtfully marked the hideouts of various thugs and gangsters throughout the city. As for why she didn't send it directly to Cao Han...
Perhaps the technicians in the logistics team of the executive department thought that such simple "heavy lifting" should be left to someone like Lucy Pallas, who was not really involved in the work.
Unfortunately, these people were disappointed.
Cao Han was very much looking forward to experiencing racing on the snow, and without saying a word, he took the initiative to sit in the driver's seat.
With the roar of its engine, the beast, already covered in a thin layer of snow, tore through the city's tranquility. Its seemingly clumsy body displayed disproportionate agility as it darted through the snow-covered world.
The first thing to do after getting on the bus is to fasten your seatbelt, and then grip the handrail tightly with your right hand to keep your balance.
At this point, Lucy Pallas couldn't care less about the little monkey. The instant Cao Han floored the accelerator, it lost control and scrambled across the car, its four short legs creating a rainbow-like arc before it crashed into the back seat.
Before the little guy could recover from his shock, he was met with wave after wave of even wilder driving.
Cao Han drives like he's solving a math problem; he'll never turn when he can go in a straight line, and he'll go as fast as he can.
In less than twenty minutes, they had traversed nearly fifty kilometers to reach the entrance of an underground air-raid shelter in Yekaterinburg.
This was originally an air-raid shelter dug during World War II, specifically for air defense, and could accommodate up to 2 to 3 people.
However, during a period of division, Russia, preoccupied with its own problems, stopped allocating funds to maintain the air-raid shelter, which gradually fell into disrepair until the first homeless person came and took it over.
Over time, it became a melting pot of all sorts of people in Yekaterinburg.
Crimes are committed here every moment. If you show even the slightest sign of being easy to bully, the people around you will pounce on you without hesitation and devour you completely, leaving not a trace.
Some have described this place as: a paradise for the fallen, a haven for the mad!
The huge air-raid shelter was artificially divided into different areas of control. Most of the structures inside were rough wooden structures that had been temporarily erected. Calling them houses would be an understatement; most of them were dilapidated tents that swayed in the strong winds.
Gamblers with ruddy necks, gangsters with tattoos all over their arms, and thugs using illegal drugs everywhere... this place is like a breeding ground for evil.
Gangsters and idle street thugs would never choose to close their eyes here if they had a place to shelter from the wind and rain elsewhere.
God knows if you'll ever open your eyes again to see the sun the next day after you fall asleep.
According to the map provided by Norma, this air-raid shelter was the first target Cao Han had chosen.
It is said that there is an intelligence organization with a small "reputation" in the city's underground in this air-raid shelter. In reality, it is just a group of idle low-level people sticking together for warmth.
In other words, the relevant departments believed that it was impossible to completely eradicate such dark forces, so they simply chose to let these people fend for themselves, as long as it did not affect the city's overt security.
Of course, this city also has many underground dark forces centered around families, but these forces are known for their protectiveness and unity, so getting the information you want from them is by no means an easy task.
In addition, Norma used big data analysis to examine Cao Han's past behavior and personality.
It is believed that Cao Han's approach to these forces can only have one outcome: he couldn't resist taking action and sending all these scumbags to the fast track of reincarnation!
Cao Han didn't consider himself a saint, nor did he think he could change this messed-up world on his own, but that didn't stop him from "taking action when necessary" within his power.
Before going to Japan, I might have needed to do everything myself, but now...
The terror of Word of Power: Judgment lies in the fact that as long as the opponent's soul strength is not as strong as the caster's, killing the opponent only requires a single thought.
The moment the heavy-duty snowmobile, clearly expensive, came to a stop, it attracted a lot of attention, along with various rustling sounds from crickets.
"Tsk tsk tsk~ This girl is really pretty. I'd be happy to die right away if I could just fuck her once!"
"John, stop daydreaming. Your little toothpick might not even work. I'm different from you; I'm more interested in that pretty boy next to me."
"Old Jack, I think you've forgotten the pain once the wound has healed. Don't you remember how you broke your leg?"
"Fxxk! Say that again and I'll fight you to the death!"
"..."
All sorts of vulgarities flooded into Cao Han's ears. What good things could these scum of the lowest rungs of society possibly say?
If it weren't for the saying "the nail that sticks out gets hammered down," I probably would have already rushed over and attacked.
