Supremely Talented Tyrant
Chapter 857 - 856: You're the Mole!

"Is this... a dagger?!"

Gently placing Chi Ruo aside on a stone, Hao Jian leaped down, his gaze falling on a dagger stuck in a tree trunk.

A contemplative light shone in his eyes, which suddenly flashed sharply as he let out a cold, low snort.

"No wonder those mercenaries were able to find our tracks, it turns out someone betrayed us!"

Hao Jian's face also looked rather ugly, he casually removed the dagger and tied it to his waist, then picked up Chi Ruo again, and dashed along the path they had come from.

As the journey progressed, Hao Jian's expression grew increasingly grim. The number of daggers stuck in his waist had now reached five, and all these daggers were placed at the turns where they changed their path...

I want to see, with so much evidence in my hands, what else you can explain!

An hour later, Hao Jian arrived at their destination for this time, a large estate with a private plane.

This estate ostensibly looked like a regular estate owner's domain but in actuality, it had been specially purchased by Huaxia to facilitate operations for their agents, with the primary purpose being for the private plane.

The plane had already been cleared for flight, and since Huaxia had bought it, it naturally included international flight capabilities, so there was no need to worry about the air force of the USA.

Meanwhile, in a grassy area of the estate, three individuals including Brother Lion and Bamboo Pole stood waiting for something. Aside from Brother Lion and two others looking worried, Bamboo Pole however, wore a lazy expression, filled with disdain for the others' waiting.

About 400 mercenaries armed with sniper rifles, and he was just one person, it seemed like an inevitable defeat, yet these three people didn't believe this truth and stood there deceiving themselves.

Bamboo Pole sneered inwardly, as long as that guy was thoroughly dead, his identity would temporarily remain safe. Next, all he needed was an opportunity to kill these three and he could return to Huaxia and continue being an undercover agent.

If it weren't for the Ye Family wanting to kill Hao Jian this time, he wouldn't have been exposed. But as long Hao Jian and the three from Brother Lion's group died, his cover wouldn't be blown, as those agents had no clue about his real identity.

Even if Secretary Zhang inquired when he returned, he would simply say they died due to mission reasons, and even the doctor hadn't been rescued.

However, upon return, he would need to sport some injuries…

Just as Bamboo Pole was paving the way for his subsequent lies, a silhouette suddenly appeared on the horizon. It then rapidly rushed towards them at a blazing speed, nothing less than eighty kilometers per hour.

Fuck! How can this person be faster than the speed of a motorcycle?! Is this even human speed?!

Seeing this, Bamboo Pole couldn't help but curse inwardly, but now was not the time to stand idly by, as he saw Brother Lion and the others, with nervous expressions, grabbing their weapons and quickly running towards the figure.

Could it be the enemy?!

Seeing the grave manner of these three, Bamboo Pole was also taken aback. He was just a technical staff member after all, knowing nothing about martial arts beyond playing with pistols, illiterate in other firearms skills.

The reason he ended up this way was that he had spent most of his time on electronic devices, barely learning serious self-defense or increasing his own combat abilities. Under such circumstances, it was already impressive that he could discern a distant shadow as human.

"Leader!"

Just as he was about to catch up, Brother Lion's shout caused Bamboo Pole's face to turn pale instantly. The only person Brother Lion would willingly call 'Leader' was Hao Jian!

Could that figure be Hao Jian?! Fuck! That's over four hundred armed mercenaries! How did this guy break through their pursuit?!

Could it be that Will had slacked off or something?! Will, ranked fifty-sixth in the world's mercenaries, how could he possibly let such "prey" escape?!

Bamboo Pole thought more and more that something was off, and he also saw Hao Jian's hands holding the unconscious Chi Ruo, his heart growing heavier. This time not only more than 400 mercenaries from the Mercenary Alliance were mobilized, but also him, one of the few undercover agents in Huaxia. If this mission still failed...

Then Bamboo Pole could already foresee just how furious the boss of the Mercenary Alliance would be, thinking of the boss's angry demeanor made Bamboo Pole shiver involuntarily. Luckily, at this moment, the three from Brother Lion's group were all focused on the approaching figure, and didn't notice his current abnormal state.

"Leader! Are you alright?!"

Seeing Hao Jian coming over, Brother Lion and the others quickly surrounded him. Hao Jian waved indifferently, freeing himself from them, and said: "I was lucky this time, otherwise, I might really not have been able to come back..."

At this point, Hao Jian couldn't help but sigh that indeed bringing a burden had significantly weakened his strength. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been thoroughly intimidated by over four hundred mercenaries. It was only by luck that a mysterious woman came to rescue them during their plight.

Otherwise, he really wouldn't have made it here, let alone be able to bring this woman out.

Glancing at Chi Ruo in his arms, Hao Jian shook his head secretly, this woman was key to this mission; he needed to keep a close eye on her. In case anything happened, he could deal with it immediately, and the problem of the mole had yet to be resolved...

"I'm fine, as long as you guys are okay, first help me look after this woman, I need to take care of some things..."

After speaking, Hao Jian handed Chi Ruo from his embrace to Brother Lion. The weight of Chi Ruo merely made Ground Lion's arms sink slightly, surprising Hao Jian with his brute strength; Chi Ruo weighed easily over a hundred pounds, yet Brother Lion held her effortlessly...

Smiling wryly, he shook his head, discarding these thoughts from his mind, Hao Jian then turned his attention to Bamboo Pole, his gaze cold and clear, unreservedly fixed on him, causing Bamboo Pole's face to turn pale and his legs to tremble involuntarily.

"Boss..."

Seeing Hao Jian like this, Brother Lion also glanced at Bamboo Pole, then back at Hao Jian, pondering in his eyes, soon filled with a chilling gleam. Although previously Hao Jian had temporarily trusted this guy, now his suspicions had returned, indicating that Hao Jian had discovered something about this guy...

That could well explain why, during their escape, those mercenaries knew so quickly their change of direction!!!

"Brother Lion..."

Sensing the slowly emerging killing intent from Hao Jian and Brother Lion, Ling Hai and Ling He also changed their expressions, with Ling Hai even calling out softly.

His arm had been briefly treated upon arriving here, yet the bullet inside could only be surgically removed back home, given the current circumstances did not allow for surgery, and they lacked the necessary equipment.

"It's okay, I'll follow the leader's command."

Brother Lion waved his hand, dissipating his killing intent, having acknowledged Hao Jian's authority, he was prepared to play his part. Besides, he had never liked Bamboo Pole, having never ceased investigating him since they started missions together.

Although many inquiries were made jokingly making others unsuspecting, as a soldier and a spy, Brother Lion never joked about such things and never took anything lightly!

"Should I call you No. 34, or should I call you Bamboo Pole?" Hao Jian looked at Bamboo Pole indifferently, his plain words sent out, causing Bamboo Pole's pupils to shrink suddenly before he quickly regained his composure as if nothing had happened.

However, his subconscious actions were all seen by Hao Jian, whose lips curled into a smirk as he coldly chuckled, saying: "Don't think that I don't know what you've been up to, and don't doubt whether I'll wrongly accuse you, you know what you have done yourself."

"Boss, what... what are you talking about? I don't understand,"

Biting his teeth, Bamboo Pole decided to deny everything.

He was shocked inside. How did this guy know his code name?! He hadn't shown the slightest flaw!

"Are you wondering why I know your code name?!"

Seeing his reaction, Hao Jian sneered internally, thinking you're doomed anyway, so I might as well let you die understanding everything!

"Since we entered the forest, I have found eleven daggers you left behind, we changed directions eleven times…"

As Hao Jian's words spread, the expressions of Brother Lion, Ling Hai, and Ling He worsened, angry at realizing that their entire course had been under control, and they had been foolishly trying to evade...

"Also, I found a letter on those mercenaries that they hadn't had time to open yet. It said that you are the mole!"

"Bang!"

At the sound of that, Bamboo Pole's face finally changed completely, and with a flash of cold light, he reached behind to pull out a handgun, loaded it swiftly, and pulled the trigger, all movements fluid...

But, could the bullets of a handgun really pose a threat to Hao Jian?!
