Chapter 9: The Hunt
Chapter 9: The Hunt
In the eastern Pacific Ocean, in international waters, there stood a fleet of vassals responsible for network maintenance.
A Sergeant knocked on the captain's cabin and waited outside. He heard his captains' command from inside. He opened the door and entered the cabin.
"Sir", the sergeant saluted his captain.
"At ease, sergeant."
"Sir, an urgent classified intel, order 'SS', for you, from headquarters."
"Leave" the captain commanded.
"Yes Sir", the Sergeant saluted and left the cabin.
The Captain looked at the sealed files for some time then broke the seal and opened the file. It had information about a woman. He looked through the intel, lit a Churchill Cigar, took a deep draught and then shredded the information. His eyes were ice cold and murderous, his copper-brown hairs reflected broken light from the only light source in the cabin. He began to prepare for the hunting game in his mind.

[POV Bai Chang]
I left the office. Today brother Li Jie was driving, I enter the car, it left, I felt Hu Qiang eyes on me but now is not the time for it.
"Brother my laptop", I asked for my ghost system; it is something I made with spare parts left after making 'Jiffy', it is my portable command unit to everything.ChπΓͺck out lπtπst ππvπlπ on n/o/vπ/l/bin(.)c/π/m
As the car drove on, I looked into the servers of the top-secret service around the world while accessing the broadband signals from the surrounding shops and office. After what happened today at the Hu Corporations, I feel going this extra mile for losing my tracks is worth it.
I soon found the information required and emailed to 'Jiffy' for safekeeping.
"Brother, let's go to a mall. We have tails; we need to give them something at the same time I will look around the surroundings."
"As you wish young lady"
"Brother, ask Zhang Wei to be extra careful after we reach home we will talk."
I spent the afternoon browsing through malls and food section. A man passed by me twice, each time while I was playing with my phone.
[Ahhh.. ]
These armatures, they are too new to the field of counter-surveillance, I felt the thrill for chase inside me. I expected my life to be peaceful after reincarnation but apparently, there are a few things that could be prayed for but never achieved - 'like peace'.
I bought a few dresses for the time being and left after we reached home, I realised we lost our tail around five kilometres before reaching this Residency Area for reasons not too clear at the moment.
"Well, Zhang Wei, Brothe Li Jie let's have dinner in my study at third floor today" and let them in without explanation.
I went straight to my study 'Jiffy' was on standby. I saw reports and data I wanted on the table 'Jiffy' have already compiled them.
[Knock... Knock]
"Come in," I said.
Then Zhang Wei and Brother Li Jie entered with our dinner. I directed them to the couch.
"What happened? Li Jie asked,
I didn't reply immediately, I sat down and took a piece of fruit salad and munched on it.
"Brother Li Jie, what is my actual relation to the Hu Corporations?"
He took a deep breath contemplating his next few words, "Young lady, you are married to the CEO of Hu Corporations before your accident", he didn't see any shock on my face he immediately knew I was aware of it.
"When did you get to know?"
"Today morning" I replied honestly.
"Young lady, he is not a wrong man, he loved you deeply."
"I am aware of it Brother Li Jie, but I am afraid the situation is complicated for the time being."
Throughout the conversation Zhang Wei was silent.
I look towards him and said, "I want to know about this person". I gave him a picture of a man in his thirties, ice-cold and murderous eyes, and copper brown hair in his military uniform.
His eyes popped "Bai Chang, what relation you have with him?" he asked deeply perturbed.
"I do not know but he will soon come after me".
He took a deep breath "Bai Chang he is dangerous not the average one but the super dangerous type his name is 'Feling' as he is known around, this man is a maniac, by profession, he is a software technical engineer mostly station to maintain the undersea cables to maintain internet and broadband services while in reality, he is the high-level informer. He obtains information for his employer by hook or by crook sometimes even going the extra mile of kidnapping, extortion and others."
(I noted he was deeply concerned as if it's something personal.)
"We heighten the security, Zhang Wei invites five people you know the best and trust with your life, invite them here some way that doesn't directly point to me."
I looked to Brother Li Jie, "Next I require all the things on the list." I handed over a sheet of paper to them. "I require all these materials nothing to be left behind searching the black market, as well as other markets, let me know where they are the point of purchase will be carried out by me."
I looked through the windows at the peaceful backyard with soft lights. "Sorry Zhang Wei, I guess life is going to become a mess soon your rest period is over."
"The hunt has begun."
