Zheng Zhen and Yang Wei casually chatted. Yang Wei had joined the team three years ago, and Zhang Zhen had been taking care of Yang Wei, feeling that the latter had potential. Their relations.h.i.+p could be considered as half Master-Disciple. Yang Wei suddenly yawned and smiled. "Big Brother Zhen, nature calls. I'll make a trip to the washroom."
Nodding his head, Zhang Zhen looked restless, as if he was about to doze off and closed his eyes. A few minutes after Yang Wei disappeared around the corner, Zhang Zhen suddenly opened his eyes with a ferocious glare. He stood up and walked towards the washroom, but Yang Wei's silhouette was nowhere seen in the washroom. He swiftly reacted and walked towards the stairs. Although the door was closed, Zhang Zhen could hear a commotion coming from the other side, as he had expected. However, he did not push it open, since it would alert Yang Wei.
Leaning his ear against the door, Zhang Zhen could hear Yang Wei speaking with someone on the phone. But due to the soft voice, he couldn't eavesdrop on the conversation.
His face flushed with disappointment. He never expected that the mole would be Yang Wei. This fellow had gradually obtained their trust over the past three years, which was the reason why sensitive information wasn't guarded against him. So if he was the one that leaked their intel, then it would bring severe consequences to the investigation team.
It's not rare for there to be moles in the force, especially when it's a case that concerned syndicates. Those syndicates would generally bribe someone in the investigation team to be their mole. Back then, Yang Wei was someone that Zhang Zhen had personally picked from the academy, with excellent wisdom and character. Thus, he had no idea where it went wrong.
Yang Wei casually returned and waved his hand with droplets of water splattering. Zhang Zhen held a cigarette in his hand before he handed it over and smiled. "You took a pretty long time in the washroom."
Yang Wei rubbed his tummy. "I ate two buns that might be unclean, so I took the number two, and it feels so much better now."
After waiting for Yang Wei to sit down, Zhang Zhen grabbed onto his collar and pushed him against the wall. Yang Wei was surprised by this matter and felt the pain from his back colliding with the wall before shock flickered in his eyes. "Big Brother Zhen, what are you doing?"
Clutching onto Yang Wei's neck, Zhang Zhen furiously howled, "I trusted you so much, and yet you're a mole?!"
Yang Wei's eyes widened before he gulped down a mouthful of saliva, then he smiled. "Big Brother Zhen, what are you talking about? I think there's a misunderstanding somewhere."
Zhang Zhen gave a slap and roared, "Instead of going to the washroom, you went to the stairs instead. Did you go to rat about this matter?"
"Big Brother Zhen, I think there's a misunderstanding. I was making a call earlier. My mother wanted me to visit relatives with her, but I informed her that I wasn't free." Yang Wei put up an innocent look.
"Then hand me your phone!" Zhang Zhen started to search for Yang Wei's phone on the latter's body.
"Wait!" Yang Wei said, wanting to grab his phone. But all of a sudden, his right leg was raised and he gave a knee to Zhang Zhen's abdomen.
Although Zhang Zhen had maintained his caution, Yang Wei's skills weren't weak, and the knee struck his stomach region. The pain instantly made Zhang Zhen curl up, then Yang Wei followed up with an elbow hook on the former's face. Sensing the burning pain, Zhang Zhen lost consciousness as he fell backward.
At this moment, Yang Wei's expression had completely changed as he coldly looked at Zhang Zhen. He walked over and stepped on Zhang Zhen's face before seeing a nurse looking over. He turned to glance at Zhang Zhen and coldly said, "You're the one courting death."
