Zhou Ling, despite being angered, couldn’t help but laugh. He lowered his voice and spoke to her with a serious expression, saying, “Ningning.”
“Alright, alright, alright. I’ll sit down and listen to you guys.” Yielding under his gaze, Liao Ning raised her hand in surrender.
As she settled down, Liao Ning remembered Lin Wan and her request for a bodyguard. “Ling, how did things go with Lin Wan? I was so focused on eating earlier that I forgot to ask her. Wei Xin is already with her, so it should be going smoothly, right?”
Zhou Ling assured her, “Everything went smoothly. Lan Yin and Gao Dian successfully implanted the nanomachines.”
“In the future, we will be immediately aware of whatever Wei Nan does.” Lan Yin nodded and explained to Liao Ning about the concealment of the nano surveillance cameras. “If the nano surveillance cameras are not discovered within 30 minutes of being implanted in the body, there is minimal risk of detection, whether it’s by using the Alliance’s most advanced instruments or other special methods.”
Liao Ning was amazed. She had no idea such advanced surveillance cameras existed. “So powerful? I’ll have to be cautious from now on. If they’re secretly implanted, won’t it invade my privacy?
Zhou Ling smiled as he clarified, “Don’t worry. Although the nano-monitor is extraordinary, it has a significant flaw.”
“What flaw?”
“That’s right. It can only be implanted in individuals with mental strength below S-rank. Additionally, its lifespan is incredibly short, lasting only three months.”
Liao Ning was taken aback. Such a useful device had such a brief lifespan, but she quickly understood. “Alright, even though its usable lifespan is short, it’s already incredible to have 24-hour monitoring without the risk of detection. Now, we just need to hope that we can gather enough evidence to bring down the Wei family within the next three months.”
“By the way, did the two of you become Lin Wan’s bodyguards solely for this purpose?” Liao Ning’s gaze shifted between Gao Dian and Lan Yin.
Gao Dian proudly replied, “Of course not. We even went through Wei Nan’s study and made copies of all the important documents.”
Liao Ning applauded with respect. “Wow, that’s impressive, truly impressive. As expected of a renowned military expert!”
Observing Gao Dian boasting and Liao Ning earnestly praising others, Zhou
Ling stifled his laughter and coughed. “Alright, tell me about the Wang family’s public attack on my flying car last time.”
Gao Dian gestured for Liao Ning to hush and handed over the floor to Lan Yin.
“Here’s what happened. Since all the individuals who attacked Boss last time resorted to suicide by poison, we didn’t need to resort to torture for confessions… Oh, sorry, I mean it was an opportunity for interrogation. We discovered a small sticker on one of the bodies.”
“Stickers?” Liao Ning found it odd that an assassin would be fond of stickers. Besides, during missions, they shouldn’t carry anything that could potentially reveal their identity, right?
Lan Yin continued, “Yes, it was a sticker. We found a fingerprint on it. After conducting a comparison, we identified the owner of the fingerprint as the granddaughter of the head of the Wang family.”
‘ Liao Ning was at a loss for words. The granddaughter of the Wang family’s head turned out to be such an incompetent accomplice. “So, what is your plan to expose this matter?”
Zhou Ling nodded. “Our plan is to bring this incident to light, exposing the
Wang family’s public attack on our soldiers. We want to tarnish the Wang family’s reputation in the court of public opinion!”
“Colonel Zhou, are you planning to use the power of the masses to break the Wang family’s backbone?” Liao Ning smiled. She had to admit that Zhou Ling’s plan was brilliant. Sometimes, the power of the masses could be the most formidable force.
Zhou Ling stroked his chin. “The power of the masses… I must say, your description is quite fitting. I intend to leverage the power of the masses to force the Wang family into submission.”
“I didn’t mean it that way. I’m simply borrowing the words of our ancestors to commend your intelligence!”
“Ningning, you’re amazing. You even quoted our ancestors to praise me,” Zhou Ling expressed warmly, generously lauding his girlfriend.
Gao Dian, who was present, quietly covered his chest, indicating that he couldn’t handle such sweetness.
Lan Yin, seated beside him, observed with amusement, secretly wishing he could enjoy some snacks and tea..
