Chapter 374 A Living Miracle

Lao Hei suddenly thought of something and asked again: "No, if the American military already knows about this, then they don't need to swap missiles at all and just raid our base directly."

"But my experts told me that those missiles were completely scrap metal. How do you explain this?"

"Didn't you deliberately give us a fake deal to attract the attention of the American military?"

An inexplicable smile appeared on Thomas's lips and he said: "That's because what we shipped there from the beginning were fake missiles."

Then, before Lao Hei could get angry, he continued: "You must know that this is a medium-range missile, no matter how high you take it, you can't take it too seriously."

"We don't want to get ourselves involved because of the negligence of our partners."

"So we just tried out the first transaction, it was just a test."

"Want to test whether your organization is capable enough to complete this work without leaking confidentiality."

"If you successfully complete the transaction without attracting the attention of intelligence personnel, it proves that you are qualified to complete the remaining tasks."

"If this incident is leaked, we can use the valuable experience and lessons from this time to improve the next operation and deal with the hidden dangers in advance. In addition, it can also attract the attention of the US military."

Lao Hei was angry now.

"You could have told me in advance! It turns out that you knew our plan might be leaked but didn't tell me. Dozens of my brothers died in vain."

Thomas shook his head and said, "If I tell you in advance, how can any practical action give you a more profound lesson?"

"You have to know that I didn't originally design this test to guard against the US military. What I really wanted to guard against was another person."

"You should be glad that it is only the United States that is targeting you this time. If you were targeted by that person, I'm afraid he would be gone by now."

"There are many weird and unpredictable methods in this world that we have to guard against."

Lao Hei fell into thinking.

"You mean the superpower in Daxia? The one you asked me to deal with this time?"

Seeing that Lao Hei didn't say Ye Fei's name, Thomas nodded and said: "In short, the plan set up a lot of real and fake decoys, just to confuse this person's sight on the one hand, hoping that he can find out what we are doing before he discovers what we are doing." The missiles are already deployed."

Lao Hei asked again: "You still want to cooperate with me now? But my base has been destroyed, where should I build the launch silo now?"

Thomas said: "I have prepared the relevant location a long time ago. It is at xxx. You should also go there early. Remember not to be targeted again this time."

After speaking, a strange light flashed in his eyes.

He finally deceived this old man. What he said to him just now was half true and half false.

The real part is that this time is indeed a test arranged by him, in order to judge whether Ye Fei knows the plan through some clues.

But the fake part is that the leak of this mission was not Lao Hei's fault at all. He asked the US military to cooperate with those soldiers who raided the base.

On the one hand, this is to make Lao Hei pay more attention to it and completely control it, so as to change the real missile launch location and let him decide.

After all, he believed that missile silos built at the base of a terrorist organization were too easily exposed.

In addition, he knew that Ye Fei had the ability to look back and have inspiration. He was afraid that Ye Fei would learn about their plan through inspiration, so he would find the base in advance and destroy their plan.

If such a play were performed now, if Ye Fei had any inspiration, he would probably be confused by the scene he saw, or be misled.

Or when he saw the base being destroyed, he would think that there would be no more missile attack plans, which would paralyze him.

Of course, the premise of all this is that Ye Fei has insight into their plan in advance. It would be best if Ye Fei didn't feel it from beginning to end.

Let’s go back to Southwest Town.

Officer Li and his men were stunned when they saw that the broken signboard had been put back at the entrance of the store, with the two big words "Qianbai" clearly visible on it.

His subordinates immediately uttered foul language.

"Holy crap! Is it true?"

This scene seems absurd, even ironic.

For a moment, Officer Li almost thought it was a prank. The residents in the town had already seen the live broadcast and were teasing them.

But soon they realized that this was not the case. They really saw the word "Qianbai", and such a straightforward clue was right in front of them.

This is simply a miracle. Although they have always known how outrageous Ye Fei's superpowers are, now they truly experience the accuracy of Ye Fei's prediction.

Just now, they were all ready to go back, thinking that this clue might not exist, but they didn't expect it to be in front of them now.

The two looked at each other. Officer Li glanced at the young shopkeeper in the shop and said, "This clue may be related to the case. Let's go in and ask."

The two walked towards the shop. Officer Li looked at the flower shop and frowned and said, "Why are there still flower shops in the town? Only people in big cities buy this kind of thing. Can they make money like this?"

He looked at the people passing by and found that almost no one came in to buy flowers.

The man on the side explained: "I know this shop owner. He was born locally. He grew up and went to school abroad since he was a child. He also studied abroad. He studied art. I think he is engaged in sculpture?"

"People are not short of money, so it doesn't matter whether they make money or not. His father is in big business and is out all year round. Their family is very famous in the town."

"I guess he lived in seclusion in the small town to experience life."

Officer Li shook his head.

"I don't understand why rich people live in the countryside? Isn't it good to live in a big city?"

With that said, the two walked in.

At this time, the young shopkeeper had returned to his chair, immersed in reading a book, with a very indifferent expression.

He heard the voice coming in and said calmly: "Take whatever you like."

After finishing speaking, he heard no movement for a long time. He looked up, stood up and said in surprise: "Is something wrong?"

Suddenly it dawned on him.

"The case hasn't been solved yet? Are you here to ask some questions?"

Officer Li looked at the furnishings in the room. They were too exquisite and elegant for a small shop.

The interior furnishings are full of artistic design and taste at first glance, and everything in the house does not look cheap.

He said, "Oh, we are investigating that case here, so we have some questions for the residents of the town."

The shop owner smiled and said, "If it's about other people's information or relationships, then you're asking the wrong question. I just came home recently and don't know anything about this, and I don't care."
