Chapter 188: Not Arousing Suspicion
A few days later, Su Ming encountered Zheng Yaoxian during a routine investigation. Zheng Yaoxian had become his superior and was once the person he trusted most in the entire intelligence system. Su Ming's heart was filled with respect and gratitude, knowing that his performance in the crisis depended largely on Zheng Yaoxian's guidance and support.
"Su Ming, how is the recent investigation going?" Zheng Yaoxian asked, with a hint of concern in his eyes.
Su Ming gently put down the documents in his hand, raised his head, and answered in a firm tone: "The report has been compiled. We have discovered some unusual signs and potential threats. Recently, I suddenly discovered that I have a special ability that can see through the true identity of others. This allows me to quickly identify spies lurking around us."
A flicker of surprise flashed across Zheng Yaoxian's eyes. He looked at Su Ming, seemingly lost in thought. Then, he nodded in agreement. "This ability is indeed rare, and it can help you identify your enemy at a critical moment. If true, it will be a significant advantage for us in this struggle."
Su Ming took a deep breath and continued, "During a recent interrogation, I identified a highly concealed spy. This spy's identity and motives were extremely cryptic, but through this ability, I was able to clearly perceive his true face beneath the disguise."
Zheng Yaoxian smiled slightly, his eyes filled with admiration and praise. "You did a great job. Being able to detect spies in such a complex environment and use your abilities to reveal their true identities is extremely rare. I believe this ability will make you even more outstanding in your future work."
Su Ming felt a warm feeling in his heart. Zheng Yaoxian's recognition made him feel extremely relieved. He knew that this was not only a recognition of his work, but also support for his future development.
Over the next few days, Su Ming continued to leverage his abilities, quickly identifying and resolving a series of potential spies. His efficiency and success rate improved significantly, earning praise from the rest of the team. Zheng Yaoxian provided more support and guidance for Su Ming's performance, further strengthening their collaboration and streamlining every detail of their work.
Yet, despite Su Ming's remarkable achievements at work, he remained filled with unease and doubt. He began to wonder what this ability actually was. Would it always be with him? Or would it suddenly vanish one day, bringing him unforeseen difficulties?
Sometimes, Su Ming would sit alone in a corner of his office, pondering his abilities and recent work progress. He would jot down every detail he observed and every anomaly he sensed, trying to find patterns and answers. Despite his efforts to remain calm and rational, the worry and anxiety deep within him would never fully dissipate.
During a conversation with Zheng Yaoxian, Su Ming expressed his doubts and anxieties: "Director Zheng, I've been thinking a lot lately about the source and sustainability of this ability. I know it's very helpful to our work right now, but I'm worried that it will disappear one day, or suddenly fail at a critical moment."
Zheng Yaoxian frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then replied, "Your concerns are justified. The source and duration of special abilities are often uncertain, but we must fully utilize the advantages they bring while being prepared for possible changes. No matter what, we must always remain vigilant and prepared to face any challenge."
Su Ming nodded, feeling a sense of comfort and encouragement at Zheng Yaoxian's words. He knew that as an agent, he had to remain flexible and adaptable in an ever-changing environment. No matter what difficulties he faced, he would maintain a firm belief and a positive attitude, striving to complete his mission.
In the ensuing work, Su Ming and his team continued to work closely together, continuously advancing the mission. Through their continued efforts, they gradually uncovered more enemy plans and hidden threats. Through his own abilities, Su Ming also helped the team successfully identify more potential spies, improving the security of the entire intelligence system.
However, Su Ming knew this was only the beginning. The crises and challenges that lay ahead might far exceed their expectations. He must remain vigilant and always prepared for the unknown challenges ahead. Despite the uncertainty of the road ahead, Su Ming firmly believed that as long as he continued to work hard, remained calm and rational, he would be able to overcome all challenges and continue to contribute to the safety and success of his team.
Over the next few months, Su Ming participated in numerous small missions, each one a test of his abilities. He was filled with awe and gratitude for his ability to discern the identities of others. He knew this ability was both a benefit and a burden, requiring him to maintain extreme vigilance and composure whenever he used it.
A secret meeting hidden in the night
One rainy evening, Su Ming received a new mission. He was to infiltrate a secret meeting, rumored to reveal the enemy's latest plans. To ensure his safety, he disguised himself as a low-level spy responsible for intelligence gathering and infiltrated the enemy's ranks.
Su Ming, wearing a simple black jacket, hat, and mask, was perfectly disguised. Although the sound of rain drowned out his breathing, he couldn't completely conceal his nervousness. To avoid arousing suspicion, he carefully walked through the dark alleys and finally arrived at an abandoned warehouse.
He used a fake ID he had prepared to pass the guards' inspection. Inside the warehouse, the dim lighting cast long shadows, and several maps and documents on the wall signaled the importance of the meeting. Su Ming took a deep breath, silently reminding himself to remain vigilant. He knew that the success of this mission depended largely on his ability to utilize his identity attributes.
The meeting participants began arriving one after another. Su Ming observed each person entering the warehouse from a distance, constantly calculating who might pose a threat to the mission's success. At that moment, his abilities suddenly sensed something unusual. A man in a suit walked in. His appearance and demeanor were exceptionally noble, completely unlike any ordinary enemy.
Su Ming focused his attention and began to observe the man closely. He sensed a unique aura emanating from him, one that was unlike any other disguised person. Through his abilities, Su Ming quickly realized that this man was no ordinary enemy member, but a high-ranking spy who was deeply concealed.
