A nation's industrial development begins with junior engineers.

Chapter 1051 A reckless fool? Overconfident? You're overthinking it!

Hearing the voice so close behind him, Liu Yuncang felt as if his blood had frozen instantly.

But he didn't panic and jump up or turn around; his years as a secret agent had made his body react before his mind could.

It was as if his bones had been suddenly removed. In a gesture almost like contortion, he "folded" down from his kneeling position to reduce the area to be hit. At the same time, he shrank his neck and quickly protected his head and neck with his hands.

The whole set of movements was smooth and natural, as if he really was just a cowardly person who was frightened and ready to be beaten.

"Which...which side are you from? Let's talk this out..."

As Liu Yuncang spoke, he slowly "squatted" up from his seated position. He slowly raised his hands above his head, forming a standard inverted triangle shape, and muttered ingratiatingly, "Be gentle, brother, I'm injured... I can't take any more roughing..."

Just as he squatted halfway up, his hands seemingly about to completely cover his head,

With his legs, which had been gathering momentum, he suddenly pushed off the ground, like a bowstring that had been fully drawn and then suddenly released. He shot towards the shadowy gap to the left, his whole body close to the ground!

From above, this creature's body was almost stretched into a straight line in the air, just like a startled pangolin trying to squeeze itself into any possible escape hole.

The grappling hook rope, swung behind them, was also insidiously aimed at the lower body of any pursuers.

Show weakness to the enemy, move swiftly like a rabbit, find gaps and opportunities, and never get entangled.

He's a pro!

However, he was fast, but the person behind him was even faster!

A foot wearing a liberation shoe precisely stepped half a step ahead of him the instant he moved, landing firmly on the only flat ground in front of the pile of debris where he could exert force, thus blocking the starting point of his escape route.

At the same time, a hand like an iron clamp seemed to have been waiting in the path that his shoulder blade was about to pass, pressing down and pulling it out.

Liu Yuncang felt a slight numbness above his left shoulder, and an irresistible force came over him. It not only easily deflected his forward momentum, but also made his center of gravity sway. His originally smooth, fish-like escape movement was instantly deformed, as if he had crashed into an invisible soft wall. All the force was lost, and he was "pressed" back to the original position, even more disheveled than before.

"Why are you leaving? I told you the road would be difficult and arduous, why don't you believe me?"

The male voice with a northern accent rang out again, but this time it lacked the previous casual tone and instead had a leisurely, teasing quality, like a cat that had caught a mouse.

Another, younger voice followed, filled with undisguised joy: "Master, how about that? I told you there aren't any good people who climb over embassy walls! Look at that skill, look at that 'tool' they're using!"

"Heh, stop being so cheeky!"

“He’s not just being cheeky, Master,” the young voice said, becoming even happier. “Listen to him talking to himself just now, about all those terrible teammates, safe houses, and climbing mountains. He rambled on and on about so many things that we don’t even need to waste our breath interrogating him. It’s saved us a lot of trouble!”

Liu Yuncang turned his head with difficulty, his heart sinking to the bottom.

Behind him stood two "locals." Their skin was dark and shiny, and they wore faded local short-sleeved shirts and tattered straw hats.

Damn it, even a tiger fallen into the plains is bullied by dogs!

I never expected to be charmed by the local people!

Liu Yuncang was unaware that these were Company Commander Tang and Squad Leader Ru, who had rushed over from Sihanoukville day and night after receiving the urgent request!

Upon receiving the request for assistance from China, the two did not hesitate at all. They immediately found a dilapidated truck in Sihanoukville, loaded it with a bunch of equipment, and traveled day and night to Phnom Penh.

Just as the car stopped near the embassy, ​​Liu Yuncang happened to see him scrambling down the embassy wall like a monkey. His movements were quick and cunning, clearly indicating he was no pushover.

At first, Company Commander Tang didn't pay much attention, thinking it was just some skilled petty thief. But after Liu Yuncang landed, he didn't panic and run away. Instead, he crouched down and observed his surroundings. Only after confirming that it was safe did he sneak into the alley. That set of skilled counter-reconnaissance actions instantly caught Tang's attention.

The two exchanged a glance and quietly followed. They weren't sure if this person was related to their support mission, so they didn't plan to act rashly. But who would have thought that Liu Yuncang was such a chatterbox? He talked to himself all the way, recounting his experiences of walking into the embassy's trap, escaping, and being forced to cross the mountains.

Wow, this is truly a case of finding something you've been searching for without even looking for it, only to have it come to you effortlessly.

Squad Leader Ru grinned so hard his teeth were showing. His voice wasn't loud, but it was loud enough for Liu Yuncang to hear clearly:

"Master, look! That kid Wang Kui has been bragging about how he accompanied that silly boy in the Northwest, and all the credit just fell into his lap like it was free! Now it's finally our turn! Don't you think our luck has improved just because we're closer to that silly boy?"

Holy crap! (Fuck!)

These words were like a slap in the face to Liu Yuncang, instantly enraging him.

Although he was a cunning and elusive "pangolin," he was also a highly valued figure in the Taiwanese action team, thanks to his skills. He was unique in his ability to dig tunnels and squeeze through gaps, and he was always proud and arrogant, hating to be looked down upon.

In his view, even if he was caught, it was because he was caught off guard, not because he was less capable than others; but Sergeant Ru's words clearly regarded him as "a merit he picked up casually", as an insignificant little guy - this was not praising his good luck, but clearly humiliating him!

This contempt infuriated him more than being arrested. Beneath his feigned obedience and fear, a surge of anger, a mixture of professional arrogance and resentment, suddenly rose up.

Moreover, the way the two addressed each other made Liu Yuncang think they were a group of local hooligans.

His eyes darted rapidly behind his lowered eyelids, and his body, which was being held down by Company Commander Tang, began to exert himself more subtly, trying to find even the slightest possibility of escape.

He had to let these two arrogant guys know that arresting him, Liu Yuncang, wouldn't be so "easy"!

While chatting idly, Squad Leader Ru kept his eyes fixed on Liu Yuncang. He observed every subtle change in Liu Yuncang's body language and his suddenly increased breathing rate.

This is exactly the effect I wanted!

To deal with such a slippery veteran spy, it's not enough to just subdue him physically. You also have to break his self-righteousness and wishful thinking, turning him from someone who thinks he's someone important into a "collaborator" who recognizes reality and is thinking about his escape route.

Provoke him, make him jump up on his own, which will put him down and make it easier for the "conversation" later.

Seeing that Liu Yuncang was completely enraged and struggling more and more violently, Squad Leader Ru grinned, a glint of triumph flashing in his eyes, but he pretended to be disdainful: "Oh? Getting anxious now? Weren't you so capable? How come we 'picked you up'? Try running away again if you dare! Don't just talk the talk, walk the walk!"

While he was urging Liu Yuncang on, his hands and feet didn't stop. He slammed the huge canvas package on his back against the wall with a "thud".

Then, Squad Leader Ru cracked his knuckles as he clenched his fists, took a step forward, and looked down at Liu Yuncang with a provocative tone: "Since you're not convinced, then stop hiding. Let's have a go. If you win, I'll let you go; if you lose, you'll behave yourself, answer every question, and give me whatever you have!"

These words only added fuel to the fire.

Liu Yuncang's anger intensified.

After discreetly observing the physique of Squad Leader Ru, Liu Yuncang felt a sliver of hope: a local, withered monkey?

Brute!

You're so arrogant!

opportunity!
