Chapter 63: The Terrifying Intelligence Network
The second prince has actually never been to a nightclub.
After Yang Ming confirmed the news, his entire perspective on values became more positive.
But he heard the second prince's explanation:
"Well, public opinion is more developed now, and the image of the royal family is also what my father has always emphasized. Moreover, after I came of age, as long as I had a need, the maids and ladies-in-waiting around me would not mind having a wonderful interaction with me. They did not do so just because of my power... To be honest, all my actions must comply with the laws of the empire... Of course, it is undeniable that there is a factor of power involved."
"Then why do you want to go now, Your Highness?"
Yang Ming's words expressed the thoughts of the three sturdy guards in the back seat.
The second prince smiled and turned to look at Yang Ming: "I have seen a theory."
"What theory?"
“Men need to go to places like this together before they can see each other as trustworthy partners.”
Yang Ming's expression was suddenly indescribable.
Think about it, a kind, lawful, honest and decent man does not deserve true friendship?
"Hey, aren't we going out here to have fun? Have fun!"
The second prince quickly became excited.
"I heard there are a lot of beautiful women there. I watched it on the video website. Our Yilanduo City has a very famous vulgar brand with many beautiful girls! Oh! Tonight is a night of indulgence!"
However.
Half an hour later.
The noisy hall, the figures dancing on the dance floor, the randomly flashing lights, and the Second Prince's slightly disgusted face made Yang Ming almost laugh out loud.
"Yes," Yang Ming raised his chin towards the front, "This is the love shop you wanted. "
The second prince was puzzled, "Just like that? Shouldn't there be two rows of girls standing in front of you, winking at you, and letting you choose who will accompany you for drinks?"
"That's easy."
Yang Ming snapped his fingers, called the waiter over, and took out the hard-earned money he had earned from Emilia.
Soon, two rows of girls in cool clothes and heavy makeup appeared in front of the second prince.
Yang Ming could see that the Second Prince really wanted to adapt himself to the environment here, but after looking left and right, he still felt that the maids in the palace were prettier.
"I just need a drink, Yang Ming, please do as you please."
Yang Ming casually threw out a stack of tips, allowing the two rows of girls to leave happily.
Yang Ming smiled and said, "Hasn't anyone told you that videos are unreliable? You can adjust your skin color, figure, facial features, etc. at will."
"Oh," the second prince collapsed, "this is simply commercial fraud..."
"Mr. Yang Ming? Why are you here?!"
Suddenly, a clear female voice was heard from the side.
The second prince's eyes immediately lit up, but when he noticed that the girl running over with the tray looked at Yang Ming with bright eyes, the prince immediately gave up the dirty thoughts in his heart and began to ponder the relationship between the two.
Yang Ming turned his head and looked over.
He also didn't expect to see 026 here.
026 changed into a white shirt and black trousers as a waiter, and barely tied her hair into a ponytail. The loose white shirt concealed most of her curvy figure. Her face without any makeup was less beautiful, but more pure at her age.
"Wow," the second prince laughed, "I didn't expect you to be a regular customer here, Yang Ming."
Yang Ming smiled and said, "This is a friend of mine. I don't come here often."
026 raised his hand to tidy up the hair on his forehead.
She recognized the Second Prince, but she did not reveal his identity. Instead, she answered nervously, "Mr. Yang Ming has never been here. I have received a lot of care from Mr. Yang Ming before, so... do you need any drinks? I can provide a very good discount."
Yang Ming raised his eyebrows: "Are you working as a waiter here? "
"A waiter in public," 026 pursed his lips, "I know you helped me, otherwise my... teacher, my teacher would never let me do a job that only her confidants can do. She has dozens of such stores. Although this is just a small thing for you, it really helped me a lot."
Yang Ming smiled with relief and asked, "Are you still taking the medicine now?"
"Yes," 026's face was a little gloomy, "but the pain is not that severe now, so I can go back to the cheaper medicine... The salary and commission I earn here can not only pay this part of the bill, but also save some. But I haven't received ..."
“That’s great.”
The second prince said, "Sit down and talk."
"No, no," 026 responded repeatedly, "I just came over to say hello to Mr. Yang Ming. I won't bother you two... If you two want better service, you can take the second elevator on the left to the VIP floor above. But I'm not in charge of that place. I can only give you discounts here."
Yang Ming narrowed his eyes and smiled, watching 026's back disappear into the corridor at the side.
The second prince slowly came closer and waved his hand in front of Yang Ming.
“They’ve all gone far away!”
Yang Ming smiled and said, "Appreciating beautiful women makes people happy both physically and mentally."
The second prince wondered, "Then why don't you go after her? Is it difficult for you? I know women, Yang Ming. Look at her eyes. It's the kind of eyes that will show that as long as you nod, she will definitely not hesitate."
Yang Ming sighed softly and whispered a few key words into the Second Prince's ear.
Military weapons.
Addictive agent.
The original target was the third prince.
The Second Prince's expression was a little frozen, and he quickly made up his mind that he must remain chaste here tonight.
"She is just a poor creature. Don't embarrass her, Your Highness."
"Of course," the second prince sighed, looking at 026 who was busy at the counter, and whispered, "She is also my countryman."
…
Lulian is very angry now.
This was the rage of humiliation—although mixed with a strange sense of excitement—but he was beyond rage now.
That damn Gutonmaha must pay the price!
But after the anger, Lulian's brain, which had been silent for a few days, began to work again.
At this moment, he was in a commercial hovercraft, heading towards the safe house set up by the Intelligence Agency here.
Just half an hour ago, Lulian activated the emergency procedure, gained command of all Federal Intelligence Agency agents within the Luofeng Empire, and began to collect all intelligence related to Gutonmaha.
At the same time, Lulian was constantly reflecting.
'I have committed the sin of arrogance today.'
"Although Luofeng is a puppet state and has been completely infiltrated by us, there are still great variables. The Sherman Empire may have already begun to implement a countermeasure plan."
'If Guton Maha had pointed a laser gun at my brain instead of kicking me with his military boots today, I would not have had a chance to think or breathe.'
Lulian lowered his head in thought.
The subcutaneous chip behind the ear flashed a little light, and pieces of information surrounding Gutonmaha were gathered and projected directly into Luliang's mind.
Guton Maha was a target that their intelligence agency rated as an "excellent loyal dog" and a key bridge for the New Federation to infiltrate the military. Lu Liyan had never expected that there would be a problem at this stage.
What was Gudummaha doing? What prompted such a drastic change in his attitude?
Lulian continued to analyze.
Soon, a key word came into his sight.
The murder of palace maid Talisa.
Following this clue, Lulian soon found a suspicious person.
"Yang Ming?"
Lulian muttered.
He looked up and shouted, "Immediately collect all the information about the young businessman named Yang Ming in the Talisa case, from the entire network."
The woman in the passenger seat immediately responded, "Got it, Boss."
Lu Lian continued to follow the clues and soon found more traces of Yang Ming.
More than ten minutes later, the hovercraft drove into a separate villa in the suburbs of Yilandu City.
Lu Liang was lying on the sofa in the villa, with more than a dozen elite agents walking back and forth in front of him.
All the news about Yang Ming were officially summarized in front of Lu Liang.
"Boss, there's something wrong with this Yang Ming."
"He had contact with Guton Maha. This was the transport ship explosion that occurred after he had contact with Guton Maha. The transport ship and its crew, the vehicles and soldiers escorting Yang Ming, were blown up by Guton Maha."
"According to the tip-off from our spy next to Gudunmaha, a large number of mechanical soldier parts were cleared out of Gudunmaha's office, and it is suspected that a fierce battle had taken place there, but Gudunmaha never mentioned it."
"Yang Ming is trying to get close to the Second Prince and has gained initial mutual trust with him. The Second Prince gave Yang Ming his beloved luxury car. The relationship between the two has become extraordinary."
"Boss, here is a piece of intelligence that can only be read by those with level 6 or above permissions. The source of the intelligence is codenamed Little Butterfly, a female guard we placed next to the fourth princess Emilia. She had long-term contact with Yang Ming. The intelligence shows that Yang Ming saved Emilia and prevented the ignition ceremony we carefully planned last time. And the reason why Emilia left the palace was to meet Yang Ming."
"Boss, the Second Prince gave Yang Ming a factory at a very low price."
"Boss, we can't find any records of Yang Ming's whereabouts on the entire Internet. It seems that he suddenly appeared in the Kashi Federation."
"Boss..."
"alright!"
Lu Liyan yelled irritably: "This damn guy, he is the one who is behind all this and made me so embarrassed today!"
A group of elite intelligence officers nodded at the same time.
"According to the intelligence analysis we have, Guton Maha's change of attitude was caused by Yang Ming, but we are not sure what happened specifically."
A woman asked quietly, "Could this be a colleague from Sherman's empire?"
"Probably."
Lu Liyan sniffed hard and whispered:
"The Sherman Empire will definitely not sit idly by. The Luofeng Empire is their royal family's small treasury. The silver it provides every year is enough for the Sherman Empire to support a fleet of capital ships.
"Apart from us, only someone from the Sherman Empire could control Gudunmaha so easily. No wonder Gudunmaha asked me what to do if the Imperial Army suddenly appeared.
“We must reassess the risks of our plans and mobilize more elite forces.
“Fellows, your long-awaited confrontation with the mysterious Sherman may be realized here.
"No one can stop us from lighting the torch of hope. Our light will illuminate all the oppressed people here!"
The group of men and women chuckled.
They almost believed what Lulian said.
…
In a certain romantic place in Yilandu City, in a private room surrounded by the deep singing voice of the Second Prince.
Yang Ming smiled as he looked at the Second Prince who was beginning to let himself go, and the three royal guards who clearly had no talent for dancing but were insisting on dancing with him and twisting their hips.
Ding ding.
Yang Ming's watch vibrated slightly. He looked down and his smile froze instantly.
Lu sent several messages in succession.
'Boss, we're in trouble.'
"I didn't expect that the New Federation has infiltrated Luofeng to this extent."
'Lulian just mobilized the resources of the New Federation... The amount of intelligence mobilized in a few minutes made Lu smack his mouth. Although Lu didn't have a mouth.'
'He now believes that you are a senior official of the Sherman Empire's MI12 and has sent a secret order to the New Federation headquarters. I cannot decipher the order, but I guess it is a request for help, and more New Federation forces will flock here next.'
"Boss, we have to make a decision. It is safest for us to leave the Falling Wind Empire now. The New Federation is the second most powerful force in the Milky Way. The New Federation CIA has been operating the Falling Wind Empire for many years and its influence is terrifying."
Yang Ming covered his mouth with his left hand and asked in a low voice: "Can the Imperial Military Intelligence Bureau use it?"
Ding ding.
'The Imperial Military Intelligence Bureau rarely conducts external activities, and focuses on internal monitoring and control of the military.'
"The Empire doesn't care about problems that can be solved with legions and warships."
Yang Ming leaned on the sofa and covered his forehead with his left hand.
Ah, these bastards.
