Chapter 189 I want to discuss with you
Su Ming's heartbeat quickened as he quickly memorized this information. To avoid attracting the enemy's attention, he feigned composure and continued observing, reporting his findings to his superiors. During this meeting, he used his insight into the enemy to successfully identify several imposters. Upon returning to base, his performance was highly praised by Zheng Yaoxian.
Following the clues
Another mission involved tracking down a suspected smuggler. Su Ming once again used his abilities to identify several suspicious individuals. In the underground passages of a warehouse, he discovered a hidden smuggling ring. The members of this ring were well-disguised, their actions and conversations filled with disguises and obfuscations.
Su Ming decided to take a more covert approach, posing as a middleman and blending into their conversations. Throughout the conversation, he noticed someone who seemed to be constantly monitoring the other members and appeared particularly nervous. Using his ability, he realized this person was no ordinary person; in fact, he was a senior intelligence officer within the group, responsible for monitoring all transactions and intelligence.
Su Ming quickly devised a plan, deliberately creating a seemingly accidental opportunity to expose the identity of the senior intelligence officer. After a series of clever operations, the intelligence officer was completely exposed and eventually captured. Su Ming's precise judgment and ability once again helped him complete the mission, and also earned him more trust and support within the intelligence system.
An in-depth conversation with Zheng Yaoxian
After the mission was completed, Su Ming and Zheng Yaoxian had an in-depth conversation. Zheng Yaoxian highly recognized Su Ming's performance, but also proposed new challenges.
"Su Ming, you've been performing exceptionally well recently," Zheng Yaoxian said with a smile. "Your abilities have given us a significant advantage against the enemy. But I hope you'll be mindful that with your identity exposed, the enemy's attention will increase."
Su Ming nodded, fully aware of the weight of Zheng Yaoxian's words. He replied earnestly, "Thank you, Director Zheng. I will do my best to maintain a low profile and continue to use my abilities to identify potential threats. I understand this ability is our greatest advantage at the moment, but it must be used with caution."
Zheng Yaoxian's eyes grew more serious, and he continued, "We are facing an increasingly complex situation. Although you are capable, you must remain calm and vigilant. If you have any new information or discoveries, be sure to report them promptly. We must ensure that we can protect ourselves in any situation."
Su Ming's heart was filled with gratitude and a sense of responsibility. He knew that Zheng Yaoxian's concern was not only a recognition of his abilities, but also a strict requirement for his future work. In this dangerous environment, he must remain vigilant at all times to continuously resolve various crises and ensure the successful completion of the mission.
Facing unknown challenges
Although Su Ming's abilities had enabled him to achieve remarkable success in many missions, he still felt a lingering sense of unease. With each success, he felt increasing pressure, knowing that the enemy would pay closer attention to him and that the challenges ahead would be even more severe.
He often sat alone in his office at night, pondering the various scenarios he might face. He would repeatedly review the details of the task and his own abilities, ensuring he could maintain calm and clear judgment no matter the situation. Whenever he felt lost and confused, he would remind himself that no matter how difficult the challenge, he must maintain faith and perseverance.
During these days, Su Ming's life became increasingly busy and stressful. Not only did he have to complete various tasks, but he also had to constantly improve his abilities and deal with various complex situations. In this process, he gradually realized that only by constantly learning and improving can he survive in this world full of dangers and challenges.
Su Ming knew that the road ahead was long and he must always be prepared to face new challenges and dangers. Although he was confident in his abilities, he also understood that only by remaining cautious and vigilant could he continue to move forward in this world full of unknowns.
Su Ming's promotion ceremony took place on a bright and sunny morning. Following his successful mission, he was promoted to a senior agent of the Juntong. This honor was the product of countless adventures and arduous struggles. Throughout the ceremony, Su Ming was filled with immense excitement, yet deep within him lay a lingering sense of unspoken exhaustion.
In the Juntong lobby, Zheng Yaoxian personally presented Su Ming with his new appointment certificate. His colleagues congratulated him, but the praises faded into Su Ming's ears. Though he maintained a smile, he knew he was facing a new challenge. A promotion meant more responsibility, and he understood that his abilities were not just a tool but a constantly draining burden.
The undercurrent of the spirit
One evening a few days later, Su Ming sat in his office, faced with a mountain of documents and tasks. He had just completed an important intelligence analysis, and although the mission was a complete success, he felt an unprecedented fatigue. This fatigue did not come from physical fatigue, but from a deep mental exhaustion.
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. His thoughts returned to his recent missions. Every time he used his "Identity Attribute" ability, he felt an indescribable mental pressure. This pressure was like an invisible hammer, striking deep within him, causing him to feel an inescapable weakness after each mission.
Su Ming forced himself to stand and walked to the window, gazing out at the city at night. His heart was filled with mixed emotions: a halo of honor coexisting with mental torture. He knew he had to find a balance to cope with this seemingly endless exhaustion.
A conversation with Zheng Yaoxian
The next day, Su Ming decided to have an in-depth conversation with Zheng Yaoxian. He hoped to find a way to cope with the mental stress he was facing. So, he went to Zheng Yaoxian's office, knocked on the door, and after Zheng Yaoxian's permission, he walked in.
"Director Zheng, I have something to discuss with you." Su Ming said straight to the point.
Zheng Yaoxian raised his head, put down the documents in his hand, and said with a smile: "Su Ming, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask."
Su Ming sat down, trying to calm himself. He said, "During recent missions, I've found myself feeling extremely exhausted after using my 'identity attribute' ability. I don't know if this is normal or just a personal issue."
