1082 Tracking and Pursuing 1

Hong Kangquan had just nodded when someone opened the door and entered the room. He stood to one side and looked at them. “Time’s up. If you would like to be released on bail, you’ll have to appeal to the court first.”

Hong Kangquan and the Japanese man who looked like a lawyer were both taken aback. They did not expect that the people at the airport had become alert already. Had they used that excuse just now, the Japanese man would never have been able to enter the little dark room. Of course, if he hadn’t been able to enter, he’d have other methods to get in. Based on how much Japan had penetrated the Huaxia Empire, entering a dark room to see a suspect was easy enough.

Seeing that Hong Kangquan had already nodded, the Japanese man nodded back at him in acknowledgement and answered in English, “Alright, then. I’ll be your lawyer and defend you.”

The police officer who had entered the room could not help but look at this person in puzzlement. He couldn’t understand why the lawyer was speaking in English. He looked like he was of the same descent as they were, so wasn’t he?

“I hope that I’ll be able to be released on bail right away,” Hong Kangquan said nervously. He could never allow himself to fall into the hands of the Special Forces. He knew that if that were to happen, he would definitely be killed.

The Japanese “lawyer” signaled to Hong Kangquan with a hand gesture, asking him to relax, before taking out his phone and calling a department in C City. One minute later, the person in charge of a department in C City called C City’s international airport. He commanded the police officers to release Hong Kangquan immediately, and even said that the lawyer was someone who was really famous. As long as he was there to set bail, the person would never escape.

The airport police officers were in a dilemma. They had been ordered to watch Hong Kangquan until the people from the Special Forces could arrive and take him away. The officer couldn’t help but say, “Don’t you think you should communicate with the people from the Special Forces? Because they had instructed us first...”

At that, the person in charge on the other end of the call raged. “What’s wrong now?! So what if they’re from the Special Forces?! Disregarding all rules and regulations overseas aside, do they think that they’re able to call the shots in the country now?! Let me tell you, they’ve got their calculations wrong! Release the Hong Kangquan! Release him immediately! This is bail with a legitimate lawyer! Do you even know the law?!”

The airport police officer thought about it over and over again. He had seen the arrest warrant and was even holding it in his hands. However, the call from the person in charge had specifically asked him to release Hong Kangquan. He really couldn’t take it lying down. “Why don’t we do this? You write a note and send it over, and I’ll get them to wait for a couple of minutes. Moreover, I’ve already informed the Special Forces in C City. You can give them the note when they get here, and they will release Hong Kangquan if they see fit.”

The person in charge on the other end of the call fumed. Slamming his fist on the table, he shouted, “Who are you? What is your name? I want to look for the in-charge at the airport! I will revoke your position immediately!”

The airport police officer was extremely alert. The moment he realized that the in-charge didn’t know who he was, he replied swiftly, “Alright, then. I’ll hang up for now. We’re getting busy over here.” He would never report his name. What if the in-charge was right? He would be in deep trouble, then!

Just as he hung up the call, the “lawyer” took out a pen, pressed it against the airport police officer’s waist, and shot him! The specially-made gun had a silencer fixed on it. Other than a dull “poof,” nothing else could be heard. The airport police officer immediately lost consciousness.

After that, the “lawyer” used the device that emitted blue light again and interrupted the security cameras in the room. Then, he turned to Hong Kangquan. “Exchange clothes with him, quickly!”

Hong Kangquan understood. He removed his floral print dress and changed into the police officer’s uniform, then put his floral dress on that police officer. Coincidentally, that police officer had a similar build to Hong Kangquan. They were both slightly overweight. Therefore, after the exchange of clothes, if no one looked at their faces, no one would be able to tell the difference!

Hong Kangquan placed the unconscious police officer onto his seat and positioned him to be resting his head on the table. The “lawyer” walked over and shot the police officer in the heart with the specially-made gun, killing him.

Hong Kangquan was taken aback. “Why did you kill him?! Couldn’t you just make him lose consciousness?!”

“He saw me. Therefore, he cannot live.” The “lawyer” put away his “pen” then continued, “We have no more time left. Let’s get out immediately.” With that, he walked briskly towards the door.

Wearing the police officer’s uniform, Hong Kangquan pulled the police cap low to hide his face and followed the “lawyer” out of the room. The two police officers waiting outside took a glance at them.

The “lawyer” turned to them and said, “Please do not disturb my client. I’ll be going back to speak to my boss about how we will appeal this case.”

That two police officers looked into the little dark room. They saw a middle-aged man still wearing that hilarious floral print dress resting his head on the table. He looked depressed. With that, they closed the door to the little dark room and left him alone.

The “lawyer” walked in the direction of the airport’s exit while Hong Kangquan, disguised as a police officer, followed him all the way out.

Just as he got into a car with the Japanese man, he heard the alarm ring from the airport. “Oh no! They’ve seen through us!” Hong Kangquan felt a shiver down his spine and was so worried that he couldn’t sit still in the back seat of the car.

“Don’t worry. You’ve already gotten into our car. They won’t be able to catch us now.” The moment the “lawyer” finished talking, he stepped hard on the accelerator and sped towards the Japanese embassy in C City.

...

“Mr. Huo! Bad news, Mr. Huo! Hong Kangquan has escaped!”

Huo Shaoheng was still on the plane when he received the phone call from the Special Forces branch office in C City. “What happened?” Huo Shaoheng asked calmly as though he were not at all surprised. He knew this trip wouldn’t be smooth. If Hong Kangquan didn’t have his ways of doing things, how would he be able to remain at that position until now?

That person reported what had happened at the airport. “...He was actually already locked up in the interrogation room. However, Hong Kangquan said that he wanted to get a lawyer, and they allowed him to call for one. In the end, a fake lawyer came and killed an airport police officer, taking Hong Kangquan away with him.”

The corners of Huo Shaoheng’s eyes twitched uncontrollably. “He made a call? They actually let him make a call at this juncture?! Didn’t you tell the airport that he’s the most wanted man right now?!”

“We did.” The person’s voice became meek. “However, that fake lawyer managed to find a person in charge in a department. That person, on top of allowing Hong Kangquan to make a call, even allowed him to be released on bail...”

Huo Shaoheng tightened his fists. “Which in-charge? Take him away for investigation immediately!” Huo Shaoheng had permission from Senior Speaker Long and General Ji stating that as long as something was related to Hong Kangquan’s case, it could be fully taken care of by the Special Forces.

That in-charge had dared to do the direct opposite, and therefore, he would have to suffer the consequences. Being arrested was the lightest punishment. As for whether to sentence him for being a traitor, that would have to be determined after they successfully managed to recapture Hong Kangquan.

Huo Shaoheng picked up the communication device and asked the pilot, “Can we go faster?”

The pilot contacted the air traffic control tower immediately and increased his speed afterwards. When they had arrived at the international airport in C City, they had taken 30 minutes less than the usual amount of time. However, they were still too late to take Hong Kangquan with them.

Huo Shaoheng put on his shades as he exited from the plane and headed quickly to the control room in the airport to look at the surveillance footage. Right at that moment, he received a call from General Ji. The news about Hong Kangquan escaping from the airport had also reached General Ji at that point.

Huo Shaoheng stopped in his tracks. “Sir?”

It was clear that General Ji was fuming on the other end of the call. Word by word, he said as clearly as possible, “Shaoheng, arrest Hong Kangquan. You have to arrest him alive! He brought the first and second phases of the quantum network satellite experiment results with him! This is the emergency information from the Aviation Department!”

They needed Hong Kangquan alive because they still didn’t know who he had given the technology to or how far he had spread the information. Therefore, he had to be captured alive so they could ensure that the technology could be salvaged. If he died, there could be unimaginable damage.

However, under such circumstances, it would be way tougher to capture him alive. Hong Kangquan had removed his tracking device long ago when he had decided to go on the run. Therefore, they could no longer trace his location. They could only set traps everywhere and wait for him to fall into them.

However, there would always be people who would decide to be traitors to the nation simply because of selfish gains and help Hong Kangquan escape from the country. Huo Shaoheng had predicted this, and that was why he had made up his mind to come personally. He wanted to remind those who had the intention of speaking up for Hong Kangquan or helping him get away with this that it would be a grave mistake to do so.

He arrived at the airport’s control room in a short time and looked through the surveillance footage. The strange thing was that there wasn’t a single shot that managed to capture the fake lawyer’s face up front. This person was clearly well-trained to operate while staying away from surveillance cameras. Huo Shaoheng concluded in his mind that this fake lawyer was in the same line of work as they were.
