Chapter 1218: Smooth Exchange
owd, taking in with a glance the astonishment, envy, and greed in every pair of eyes. She then stepped forward and bowed slightly, saying:"I've met both uncles and aunt, Lianyi here pays her respects...Ripple looked at the haggard girl in the photo, raised an eyebrow, and then began to compare it while applying makeup.
We uncovered a secret human trafficking route operating internationally, originating from South Province and crossing the border into country M.
We've almost mapped out all the routes in South Province, but we know nothing about the lines over in M country. We don't even know who our contact there is. Three of our undercover agents went in, and ultimately this mission fell to our squad.
These people are ruthless and will kill without hesitation. I'm not sending any more undercover agents in. This time, I plan for you to infiltrate as a trafficked woman into country M. Once you've figured out their security routes, send the information back and your mission will be complete. The rest is up to us."
Ripples had put on half her makeup and nodded after hearing Zheng Ran's explanation. This was a good idea, at least it wouldn't be easily suspected.
"I understand, when will I swap identities with this girl"
"Before they enter M country, we will find an opportunity for you to switch. This is her information, you must memorize it. After you mix into the container, we will be unable to provide any assistance, everything will depend on you."
Zheng Ran passed a folder to Lian Yi.
"Got it! Once we figure out the lines, how to transmit them to you... the other party must have been searched, they probably don't have anything extra on them."
As she did her final touch-ups on her makeup, she asked.
"Don't worry, this time we implanted a tracking device under your skin. They won't notice."
Jin Yuanqing twirled the weapon in his hand and spoke.
"New technology"
Ripple, after adjusting herself, put down the mirror and asked.
"Well, new technology, effective radius is ten kilometers."
Will it be detected
The ripples asked.
"It's not visible to the naked eye unless you have a special detector, but you should still be careful."
Zheng Ran couldn't guarantee it either.
"I just looked at the records. This girl named Li Tian had a fracture in her right little toe bone when she was young. The tracker can be implanted in this location. If it's found, it will say that a steel plate was inserted. It should work, as long as the girl's information is true."
"Your proposal is good, let's do it your way. We must nip all risks in the bud."
Zheng Ran nodded.
After the ripples were ready, they followed the team to a previously observed location and quietly lay in wait for the arrival of the convoy.
The waiting lasted until the middle of the night. One truck after another, carrying containers, slowly drove along the mountain road. They didn't even turn on their headlights; they just relied on the moonlight to illuminate the way ahead.
Here it comes, get ready.
Ripples nodded, a pair of bright eyes fixed on the target vehicle.
Moments later, the lead car seemed to have a problem. It was driving erratically, nearly hitting the guardrail, and finally came to an emergency stop at the last minute.
When the leading car came to a stop, the cars following closely behind also stopped. Then, people became aware of the situation and got out of their vehicles. About five or six individuals took turns walking over to the first car, which was parked diagonally on the road, to inquire about what had happened.
I don't know how they communicated, but after a moment, someone started changing the tire. It was obviously because of a flat tire that caused the sudden incident just now.
"Did you guys put the nails in there to puncture the tires"
Ripples held up a telescope, observing it while asking.
"No, it was Fei Ying who directly shot in. We only know the approximate time they came. Arranging ahead of time could easily injure others."
Zheng Ran explained.
"Come on, sneak over there and get ready to exchange with the other side."
Members of the Special Operations Team silently approached the target vehicle and then heard someone banging on a shipping container door, as if calling for help.
Immediately, someone cursed and walked over, smashing the car with the butt of his gun twice and threatening those inside to shut up. However, the people inside also shouted back, seeming to say that someone in the car had a contagious disease. Only then did the escort personnel run to find their leader for instructions.
Moments later, a man who looked like the leader came to the container truck. The small thugs, at the leader's signal, opened the container door. The people inside rushed out regardless of anything, and with them came a foul stench. Ripples even smelled a rotten flesh smell.
"tsk tsk! These people really treat them like commodities."
Ripple spoke in a low voice.
"Seize the moment."
Zheng Ran immediately made a gesture, but he didn't dare to get too close.
Because the people who came out of the shipping container were terrified, running in all directions, one girl was holding her head and running toward where they were hiding, she wasn't the only one running this way, several others followed behind.
"Bang bang bang" Gunshots rang out in the silent night, causing those who were scattered to instinctively crouch down.
Ripples waited for this opportunity, immediately crawling to the target's side and whispering:
"Stay still, someone will come to pick you up in a while. Don't make a sound!"
The young girl was shaken, but because it was something they had agreed upon beforehand, she nodded immediately and buried her face in the ground.
"Damn it, I don't want to live anymore! You dare run I'll kill you all. Come back here obediently yourselves, or else I'll lose my temper."
Someone immediately began to shout, and after a moment everyone who had been crouching stood up and reluctantly moved back.
The ripples, too, imitated the others, huddled their heads and shuffled along with the main group.
When they were cornered in the forest, the leader who had tried to run ahead was already knocked to the ground, and those little thugs were kicking and punching him.
"Run! Run! I'll beat you to death!"
"Spare my life! Big brother, please spare me. I don't want to run, but there are dead people inside. If we don't come out, we'll all be infected. Someone already has things growing on them."
The man could only protect his head with his hands, rolling on the ground, begging for his life and uttering words to save himself.
"Alright, hold your horses before you start punching anyone. Go inside and have a look, don't delay our delivery."
The one-eyed leader roared with rage.
The young hooligans stopped, and immediately someone braced themselves against the stench and climbed into the car to take a look. After a moment, they ran back out, whispered something in the one-eyed man's ear, and the one-eyed man spat on the ground and cursed:
"Damn it, what bad luck! This truck is out of commission. Check the rest of the cargo, throw anything problematic into this container, and distribute the rest among the other trucks. This shipment can't have any issues."
Yes, big brother!
The ripples amongst the crowd were then roughly pulled apart to check under her sleeves. After confirming she was not infected, she and a few other men were ushered into another vehicle.
Forty minutes later, the convoy set off again. Li Tian lay motionless on the ground, using low bushes to conceal herself, enduring insects crawling across her face. All she could think about was three words: "Don't make a sound."
I don't know how long it had been, until she thought she had already been forgotten, someone quietly came over, covered her mouth with their hand, and dragged her into the darkness.
After getting into another car, Lian Yi curled up in a corner, burying her head in her knees and enduring the unpleasant smell inside the vehicle.utes."Burp! My stomach is full, but I'm not worried!"Qian Siming sighed.Ripples was drinking tea, this time she specially prepared goji berry tea for herself, it's good for health."Zhao Team, we've b...
