Chapter 342:i Was Wronged

“Brother, do you have a strategy?” Gu Ci knew that this plan was too vicious, and her determination was the same as Jiang Junlin’s.

“This is a dead end, and there’s no way out,” Wan Changtian said. “He instructed that if anything happened to him, the Dark Web would fall into your hands. Whether you want to betray or be loyal, it’s up to you. Just remember one thing, the Dark Web is a double-edged sword, and it should never harm its own.”

Gu Ci remained calm, despite the inner turmoil and torment. She asked, “Is there no room to maneuver at all?”

Wan Changtian sighed, “Miss Gu Ci, as you can see, the other side has been planning for many years and won’t make a mistake. Unless the Jiang family is willing to bear the infamy.”

This was something that would stink for a thousand years!

Gu Ci couldn’t let the Jiang family end up like this. Would it really come to sacrificing her brother?

Wan Changtian said, “The only way to turn things around is to make the Dark Web public, to be open and no longer hidden in the shadows. That’s the only way out.”

Gu Ci was clever and immediately understood.

Qin Wan silently thought to herself that when it came to intelligence, she couldn’t compare to them. Gu Ci and Jiang Junlin seemed to be born conspirators. On the way here, Qin Wan had heard Gu Ci say that the only way out of this situation was to make the Dark Web public.

Once it was made public, everything would be exposed!

This was not a glorious thing to do. Going public would attract a lot of criticism internationally. But if they didn’t make it public, Jiang Junlin would truly have no way out.

As Gu Ci had expected, Jiang Junlin was also thinking the same way.

“Can I trust you?” Gu Ci played with the tracker in her hand.

“Master anticipated that you would ask this,” Wan Changtian showed a video to Gu Ci, and Qin Wan also came over to analyze whether the video was authentic.

In the video, Jiang Junlin said, “Cici, you must not send anyone to rescue me. The Dark Web cannot bear this infamy. It’s a blessing, not a curse, and it’s a curse that can’t be avoided. Let it be. This is fate. Also, stop Ji Chi, he acts impulsively and would spare no cost to save me. I don’t want him to have blood on his hands. If you really can’t persuade him, make a bet with him…”

Coming out of Wan Changtian’s house, Qin Wan was still in a daze. “Master is really out of his mind. He made such a long video, teaching you how to deal with Ji Chi, but didn’t think about a rescue plan for himself.”

Gu Ci, however, understood what Jiang Junlin was struggling with. There was no solution to this situation, and it was too late.

“Send someone to capture those assassins and hand them over to Interpol. Let them solve the case,” Gu Ci called Dr. North. “Do it now.”

“Alright, i’ll send Zhang Qiang.”

Qin Wan also understood Gu Ci’s decision. The assassins sent by Xiao Min were not there to rescue Jiang Junlin or kill him. They were there to kill this entire team.

By committing murder and blaming it on the Dark Web, they could force the Dark Web to spare no effort to save Jiang Junlin.

Gu Ci’s mind worked quickly, and she soon figured out the trick. Qin Wan was single-mindedly focused on how to save Jiang Junlin, without thinking about the assassins. After all the careful planning, it had all gone to waste. Both Gu Ci and Qin Wan felt heavy-hearted.

They had lost control of the situation!

Gu Ci had a candid conversation with Chen Liangdong over the phone, hoping that he would consider making the Dark Web public. Chen Liangdong had already found out who was behind the scenes causing trouble.

However, this matter was quite tricky for him.

“Gu Ci, if Jiang Junlin dies, will you lead the Dark Web and defect?” Chen Liangdong asked very directly.

Gu Ci remained silent, providing no answer.

Their son was under the protection of the National Security!

If she defected, this matter would be handed over to the National Security, and the mother and son would become mortal enemies. If she didn’t defect and her brother died, how could she willingly pledge allegiance? “1 will kill the mastermind, for sure!”

She didn’t give a direct answer but indirectly did. Chen Liangdong and Gu Ci’s communication was always straightforward. “Allow me to think about it. 1’11 give you an answer before Jiang Junlin’s plane lands.”

“Okay!”

Gu Ci disbanded the Dark Web’s deployment in Paris and had them stay put. During this time, they were to do whatever was necessary. Zhang Qiang also handled the assassins and handed them over to Interpol.

After all was said and done, Gu Ci was exhausted. She had been working tirelessly during this period and hadn’t had a good night’s sleep. Now that the dust had settled, she felt like the hanging sword had finally fallen. All her efforts had been in vain. She only had one option left – to let Lu Zhiyuan go and save Jiang Junlin. But how could she explain Jiang Junlin’s mysterious disappearance from prison?

Had he calculated everything? No wonder when he came to her and learned of her decision, he didn’t fully agree but also didn’t veto it. Was he waiting for her to plead with him?

The Tiger Team was led by Colonel Li Mu, and they brought twenty-six people with them. As soon as they landed, they hurried to the prison to take over from Wan Changtian. The prisoner they were interested in was Zhou Qi, a forty-six-year-old man who was held on the same floor as Jiang Junlin. After the handover between Li Mu’s team and Wan Changtian was completed, they took charge of all matters related to Jiang Junlin and Zhou Qi.

This team was well-trained, confident, and efficient. They quickly made all the necessary arrangements.

Li Mu came to see Jiang Junlin. “Mr. Jiang, what have you gotten yourself into?”

“How coincidental,” Jiang Junlin recognized him. They were quite familiar, as the Dark Web had assisted him in conducting counter-terrorism missions abroad. Li Mu didn’t know that Jiang Junlin was the mastermind of the Dark Web.

Li Mu was two years older than Jiang Junlin, exactly thirty years old. They attended the same school, although in different grades, but both were prominent figures. They had some acquaintance, and later, when Li Mu worked at the bank, they had met a few times.

He only opened the secret dossier once he was on the plane. This mission was officially about escorting Zhou Qi, but in reality, the target was Jiang Junlin. Zhou Qi’s life didn’t matter, but Jiang Junlin had to be brought back unharmed.

The dossier only provided him with the mission and the target, but it didn’t reveal why Jiang Junlin had been detained in the first place. As the president of Hualan Bank, he had wealth and power, and Jiang Junlin was well-connected. What had he done to warrant the special attention of their team for transportation?

The Tiger Team was responsible for the most complex and dangerous missions, always involving live ammunition. They were a formidable force, and their missions were always crucial. He knew that if the team had been dispatched, the mission was of utmost importance.

“I’ve been wrongly accused,” Jiang Junlin said with a touch of humor, even laughing at himself.

He who is not guilty fears no accusation.

“We’ll discuss this in court,” Li Mu said with a serious expression. “No coercion.”

He no longer discussed personal matters with Jiang Junlin and was very polite. “If you lack anything, just let me know. Whatever 1 can do, I’ll do my best.”

In addition to bringing Jiang Junlin back unharmed, the mission also included a peculiar phrase: “treat with courtesy.”

This was quite intriguing, and it was the first time Li Mu had encountered such a mission.

By looking at Jiang Junlin’s wrist and overall condition, Li Mu could tell that he had been well-treated in prison, without any torture. Regardless of who had ordered this, Jiang Junlin seemed to have a good idea of the situation..
