?Mobile reading Zhongyuan Provincial Military District, a high-level conference room. He Muqing stepped forward and took it, saying, "I'll open it!" After tearing the seal, she poured out the contents, which were all over the place—various papers of different sizes and colors, along with passports, pens, and lipstick. Some of the papers had printed text, others handwritten notes, and even childish doodles resembling what children draw when painting. "What are all these?" asked Qin Dashi, puzzled. Wei Qingtian carefully selected the most important document—a resume, with a half-length photograph affixed in the upper right corner. From the paper's condition, it was clear that the document had been completed in the 20th century, likely older than his own age. "This is the person we're looking for—Ma Zhifei. A very dangerous individual." Wei Qingtian said in a low, steady voice: "At first, he entered our side as a special operations intelligence officer. Once discovered, he switched allegiance and began working alongside us, maneuvering against our opponents. His presence proved to be a constant burden to them, and in recognition of his contributions, we gradually treated him as one of our own. Yet who could have imagined that he wasn't merely a double agent, but a triple agent—working diligently for us while simultaneously passing confidential intelligence to a third party!" "Qin Feng asked, "So he truly is a troublesome person. Then what's my task—kill him, or capture him and bring him back?" Wei Qingtian's eyes flashed a hint of coldness. He spoke steadily, "People like this are always a threat as long as they're alive, because they know too many secrets. Even if they fall into the hands of our own people, they'll inevitably cause a major upheaval." "I see—only the dead have the strictest secrets," he nodded. Wei Qingtian pointed to the man in the photo. "It's this man. Because of his unique status, he never provided any personal documentation since we began working with him. This mission is urgent—evidence shows he has withheld many of his key secrets from others. Now that he has defected, he's likely eager to secure his position and livelihood, and is actively seeking a deal with a third party. He must act swiftly, before those secrets are exposed, to eliminate the threat." "Qin Dashi smiled: 'Then what secrets must he have known? Aren't most of them things that are hard to reveal?' The elder looked embarrassed, huffed, 'You're always so sharp, aren't you? Don't worry about whether they're things that need to stay hidden—what matters is that they mustn't reach the common people or those with ambitions to undermine the status quo, or real chaos would ensue!' Wei Qingtian didn't argue—his assumption was confirmed. Otherwise, Qin Feng would never have been willing to engage in politics, since the words "politics" and "integrity" sound alike but mean entirely different things. Wei Qingtian added, 'There's another reason I entrusted this to you. At the time, he was very close to the Guan family. In a sense, his successful escape was deeply tied to them. If I handed it over to anyone else, I simply wouldn't feel confident!' 'Where is he hiding now?' Qin Dashi asked. Since it was the elder's assignment, it had to be taken over—and it had to be completed." But he hadn't expected it to be connected to the Guan family. Then it was even more urgent—he must take charge and absolutely ensure Brother didn't uncover any undercurrents between you two; otherwise, he'd sweep everything away. Brother particularly enjoyed unseating high-ranking officials, especially those he deemed destined for leadership. The elder replied, "We've traced him—he's already fled to one of the Southeast Asian countries and has been hiding there!" He Muqing carefully examined the materials, then shrugged and said, "With just this pile of scattered items, how could we possibly find any useful leads? How could we even begin to investigate?" Wei Qingtian knew it was difficult and added, "That's why I assigned it to Xiao Feng. In fact, securing these materials was no small feat. At the very moment of his defection, I ordered all relevant documents to be sealed. Guess what?" "What?" He Muqing, growing impatient with the elder's deliberate delay, was eager to hear the answer. Qin Dashi smiled and said, "What else could they do? All these things have simply vanished or been damaged. Since he managed to escape successfully, someone must have given them advance notice. With that kind of information, they've had ample time and resources to address the matters that could harm them." The elder nodded and agreed, "Exactly as you said. Right now, I'm most suspicious of the Guan family. The events that unfolded before the Spring Festival have completely strained the relationship between the Guan and Wei families. Every move I make is now under their watch. Therefore, not only must I resolve this issue, but I also need to ensure the news remains sealed." The elder intended to catch the Guan family off guard. Qin Dashi fully understood—some points needed only a subtle hint, and he would instantly grasp their meaning, without needing them to be explicitly stated. Finally, Wei Qingtian said, "Ma Zhifei is a person of strict character—indeed, one could even describe him as meticulous and cautious. It's not easy to find him. However, he has one critical flaw: he's very romantic. Over the years, he's been involved with countless women. You can leverage this point. Back then, it was precisely through the 'beauty strategy' that I managed to win him over and make him work for me. Later, when he was pulled away by a third party, I'm certain the latter also employed the same tactic!" Oh well—so that really is his fatal weakness. To fall twice in the same place is truly something only a dog that can't stop eating dog poop could achieve.
