Chapter 1524: Touchstone

He Chengjian stared calmly at Huo Shaoheng’s handsome but cold face on the big screen, and narrowed his eyes.

They had been looking for him for three to four years, but they hadn’t found him. Turns out he was with the KGB.

It was no wonder they hadn’t found him. Other than the higher-ups of the KGB, with China’s national power and strength, how could they not have found him?

At that time, he had already discussed this matter with the generals in the upper echelons of the military.

As long as the Huo family was in China, it was impossible that they couldn’t find him.

The Huo family wasn’t in China, and that was why they couldn’t find him.

Now that Huo Shaoheng had appeared and was the ace of the KGB’s Far East Bureau, he wanted to see if Gu Nianzhi would fall in love with this Huo Shaoheng, or..

He Chengjian’s eyes flashed.

He would use Huo Shaoheng as a touchstone to test how persistent Gu Nianzhi’s feelings were.

He Chengjian thought to himself as he said to the people in the meeting room, “... Is the Soviet Union being sincere enough this time?”

The generals knew about the other world as well as the arrangements with the higher-ups of the Huaxia Empire.

General B, who had been displeased with the Soviet Union’s insincerity, said in surprise when he saw Huo shaoheng, “The Soviet Union really put in a lot of money this time!”

“Yeah, the trump card of the Far East Bureau. Even the CIA, the German FBI, and the British MI5 haven’t been able to find out his true identity after so many years of investigation.”

They were the only foreign country higher-ups who knew the true identity of the “Trump card” of the Soviet Union’s KGB.

Of course, if the Soviet Union had not taken the initiative to reveal his true identity, they would not have been able to find out his true identity.

“I heard that he always disguises himself when he goes on missions. He has never used his true appearance.”

“Ten years ago, when the USSR and the United States were at the climax of their struggle for hegemony, the arms race had almost pushed the Soviet Union to the brink of collapse. It was this Peter who single-handedly turned the tide and obtained top-secret intelligence from the highest level of the CIA. He proved that the ‘Star War’ plan that the President of the United States was wantonly promoting was actually a hoax.”

He Chengjian thought of the arms race that almost brought down the Soviet Union and was deeply moved.

“Yes, it was that time that his position as the top secret agent of the Soviet KGB’s Far East Bureau was truly established.

“It was also from that time that the United States and the Western world never stopped pursuing him. Whether it was in the open or in the dark, the bounty on him is already astronomical.”

“As long as we hand him over to the United States or the Western intelligence agency, we won’t just be making a fortune. We’ll be able to make a fortune that can rival that of a country.”

The five generals were full of admiration and respect for him, but they were also wary of this man sent by the KGB.

General C also said, “Actually, we should have thought of this three or four years ago. “At that time, we just learned about our counterpart Huaxia Empire on the other side of the world. The most secretive and outstanding intelligence agent was the great general of their Special Operations Forces, Huo Shaoheng. We couldn’t find this person in our country, so this person should most likely be in the Soviet Union.”

He Chengjian was enlightened. He patted the back of his head and smiled. “That really woke me up. Yes, such a powerful intelligence agent isn’t in our country. The only place that he could possibly be is the Soviet Union.”

Everyone had a meeting to discuss their countermeasures against the arrival of this “Trump card of the Far East” before leaving the meeting room.

...

After the meeting, He Chengjian sent the information of the members of the Committee of State Security (KGB) to He Zhichu.

He Zhichu had just returned to his residence and was about to go to the bathroom to wash up.

When he heard his phone ring, he took it over and saw that it was an encrypted message from his father.

He quickly swiped open his phone to take a look.

These messages would be destroyed once they were seen. They wouldn’t be left in the phone and wouldn’t exist on the internet.

He paused on Linda’s photo and quickly swiped it open. He saw the second photo, “Far East Ace” Peter.

His hand trembled. He didn’t have time to look at his details and quickly called He Chengjian back.

“Father, what’s going on? How can he be the far east ace of the Soviet KGB? !”

“Yes, it’s him, Huo Shaoheng.” He Chengjian nodded slowly. “You’re very shocked, aren’t you?”

“It’s more than shock.” He Zhichu sat down on the sofa with a wry smile. He unbuttoned his shirt and felt very annoyed. “It’s really him? How can it be...”

“Although it’s a shock, if you think about it carefully, this is the only possibility,” He Chengjian said with certainty, “If we really have Huo Shaoheng on our side, there’s no way he can escape our search in the country. So the only possibility is that he’s abroad, and he’s working in an organization that does a very good job of keeping secrets. Otherwise, our field agents abroad wouldn’t be easy to fool.”

“The Committee of State Security (KGB) admitted that Xie Ziyan was with them before, and that she was also a high-ranking member of the KGB. Now that her grandson is also in the KGB, it’s only logical.”

The intelligence agencies actually liked having a family working in the same organization for several generations, because it was easier to keep secrets.

Both parents were in this line of work, so it was very likely that their children would still be in this line of work.

This was something that all the intelligence agencies in the various countries understood by heart.

He Zhichu pursed his lips, and his sparkling almond-shaped eyes were tranquil. He said,”... What is he doing here? Is he here to pick up Dresden?”

He Chengjian nodded. “Yes, their operation team will come to pick him up and take him to Moscow. They won’t take a plane, but will leave by sea. You must remember to contact him and do a good job of changing shifts.”

The veins on the back of his hand protruding, He Zhichu held his phone tightly. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, “Where are they now?”

“As far as I know, they have already gone to H City.” He Chengjian could hear the change in He Zhichu’s mood, and his expression turned cold. “What’s wrong? Are you afraid?”

He Zhichu sneered and lifted his leg to put it on the coffee table in front of him. “Why would I be afraid of him? I just think it’s a little ridiculous. It seems that no matter where we are, we’re still rivals.”

He Chengjian’s expression relaxed slightly. He turned on the computer to check their plan of action and said calmly, “It’s good that you’re not afraid. Actually, it’s also good that he’s here. At least he can make Nianzhi give up.”

Don’t dream about it. There would be people coming to save her in the future.

“Nianzhi will know how good you are. Ah-Chu, other than you, no one else can risk their lives to go to the other parallel world.” He Chengjian comforted He Zhichu. “She’s still young. Don’t be too anxious.”

He Zhichu thought about what he had done in the evening and blushed, but he didn’t regret it at all.

It was because of his uncontrollable impulse towards Gu Nianzhi that he was more convinced that he really loved her. His feelings for her were definitely that of a man towards a woman.

If it was just the same kinship as before, he wouldn’t have the desire for her as that of a man towards a woman...

He Zhichu stood up and walked to the wine cabinet. He took out a bottle of red wine, opened it, and poured himself a glass of red wine. He took a sip. “Father, don’t let her see this person for the time being.”

“What’s wrong? Are you worried that she will fall in love with this person?” He Chengjian raised his eyebrows in surprise. “You have so little confidence in yourself?”

“No...” He Zhichu paused, and his eyes narrowed. “I’m worried that the impact on her will be too big, and I don’t know how sad she will be.”

“Isn’t that just right? To completely stop her from thinking about the other side.” He Chengjian was happy just thinking about it.

When he had warned General Ji, he had actually been bluffing. At that time, he hadn’t been sure if Huo Shaoheng was on their side, but in order to scare him, he had lied to them without hesitation.

Now it seemed that God was helping him.

Because he hadn’t lied. They really did have Huo Shaoheng on their side.

If Huo Shaoheng was really a hopeless romantic and risked his life to come here, he would have been happy to see that happen.

Not only would the other side lose their trump card, but the KGB would also lose their trump card as well.

This was absolutely beneficial to their national interests.

After all, the Soviet Union and the Huaxia Empire weren’t on good terms.

The conflicts between the two countries were no less than the conflicts between Huaxia Empire, the United States, and the Western world.

However, it was a pity that the Huaxia Empire on the other side would lose Huo Shaoheng.

He Chengjian had already warned them but they wouldn’t listen to his advice and did whatever they wanted. There was nothing he could do.

He Zhichu’s emotions were very complicated. He thought about it for a while and shook his head. “I’ll let her see him once, but not now. She still has a lot of hope now. I don’t want her to be too disappointed all of a sudden.”

“It’s better to wait for a period of time when her hope has become dim and let her see this person again. That way, she’ll be mentally prepared and won’t be too sad.”

He Chengjian listened and didn’t speak for a long time. When He Zhichu thought he was going to hang up, he sighed and said, “Ah-Chu, you really love Nianzhi to death.”

He could no longer imagine what would happen if Gu Nianzhi really refused to comply.

Could it be that the worst outcome would be to perform a surgery to remove her memory?

What was the difference between this and killing her?

He Chengjian hung up the phone and sighed slowly. He thought to himself, if Su Wen was here, how would she deal with this problem?

His son’s stubbornness was actually inherited from him.

...

He Zhichu sat in his room until dawn before taking a nap on the sofa.

Gu Nianzhi had just woken up from her deep sleep. She took out her phone and turned it on to read the news today.

Very good. The world was still in a state of “blood and gore”.

The information that Dresden had revealed caused a huge uproar. From the public to the media, from governments to the United States Senate and courts, all of them were interrogating the CIA about this PRISM project.

The US Department of Justice had no choice but to urge the US Department of Justice to quickly prosecute Dresden for treason and leaking the secret.

Gu Nianzhi watched in delight. Just as she was about to activate the little program Lu Jin had given her to stir up trouble on Twitter, Bai Shuang called.

“Lawyer Gu, are you still in H City?” Bai Shuang’s voice was much calmer than it had been yesterday.

Gu Nianzhi smiled. “Yes, I’m leaving in two days. What’s wrong? When are you leaving? Are you coming back with me?”

Bai Shuang looked at Dresden, who was sitting next to her, and smiled. “I can leave after I send Mr. Dresden to Macau.”

Gu Nianzhi was shocked. She sat up from the bed. “Why will you send him to Macau? Is there no one else?”

Because Dresden was looking at her, Bai Shuang had no choice but to say tactfully, “It’s like this. Mr. Dresden trusts me more. Lawyer He has a special status, so he can’t move around as freely as I can.”

Gu Nianzhi replied with an “oh.” She said, “As long as you’re happy. I don’t have any objections.”

Bai Shuang smiled and asked again, “Then are you free tonight?”

“I’m free.” Gu Nianzhi said without hesitation, “I don’t know what to do for the next two days. I was just about to get up and search the internet for other fun places besides Disneyland.”

“That’s great.” Bai Shuang finally understood what she meant. “It’s like this. Tonight, Mr. Dresden is going to an event on the international cruise ship to meet with reporters from several major international newspapers. However, Lawyer He is a Senator of the Legislative Council, so he can’t accompany him to meet the reporters in private. Therefore, Mr. Dresden would like you to come with us and only provide legal assistance. He will pay you the same salary as Lawyer He will.”

Gu Nianzhi didn’t care how much Dresden would pay, but she wanted to go along and see what other cards Dresden had up his sleeve.

“Going on a cruise? Who else is going?” Gu Nianzhi wasn’t worried about her safety, because Qin Zhining and the others were secretly protecting her, but she didn’t want to agree too readily.

“Oh, Director Zhao from the Lu Corporation will go with us,” Bai Shuang said while blushing.

In the past two days, she had been seeing Zhao Liangze more and more frequently, and her good impression of him had become deeper and deeper.
