"Uh, let me clarify first, I'm a good person!"

Guo Yi said aggrievedly over the comms channel, "We're all civilized people, let's talk, not fight! Don't be like brutes and use your fists to convince others!"

"Ha~" Section Chief Zhou heard Guo Yi's words and laughed in anger, "You're a good person? Someone who trades dangerous materials with K2, someone who extracts nuclear materials in their residence, and you tell me you're a good person?"

Just as Section Chief Zhou was talking with Guo Yi, a guard quickly approached. He Zhijun gestured to him, instructing him to have the relevant attack personnel continue their assault.

"Hey, I needed to do experiments, and they don't sell it domestically, so I found them." Guo Yi continued pitifully, "K2 has the best reputation~ So I bought it from them... Doing an experiment, buying some experimental materials, that's not too serious, right? Dog Head and Cat Head are all here... Did I cause a major incident?"

He Zhijun and Section Chief Zhou exchanged a glance, inwardly shocked. Judging by Guo Yi's words, it seemed he actually knew about these two special forces teams? Moreover, his speech suggested he knew quite a bit about them!

"You know Dog Head and Cat Head?" Section Chief Zhou asked gravely, "How do you know?"

Guo Yi froze, belatedly realizing he had said the wrong thing. He stammered an explanation, "Uh, well, you know, I accidentally saw it while browsing the internet occasionally..."

"It seems you have many crimes!" Section Chief Zhou also heard Guo Yi's guilty conscience and deliberately exaggerated the charges, shouting angrily, "You have dealings with K2, and you've also stolen classified information. You probably sold it too..."

"I didn't, I don't, don't talk nonsense!" Guo Yi quickly denied everything and explained in a panic, "I definitely didn't sell it to anyone~ No, I don't know anything about Dog Head or Cat Head~"

"Is that so? Then let's continue talking about your browsing..." As the conversation expanded and deepened, Section Chief Zhou gradually gained control of the content and pace. Guo Yi, on the other hand, kept talking more and more, and the more he spoke, the more comprehensive his information became, allowing Section Chief Zhou to gain more control over their conversation.

While Section Chief Zhou and Guo Yi were chatting and confiding in each other, the previous guard quietly crept to the location of the attacking team and then waved his hand. However, this guard didn't know that the hand gestures he made were displayed in text form in front of Guo Yi. Therefore, when Guo Yi saw that they were preparing to continue the attack, he shivered. He immediately interrupted his conversation with Section Chief Zhou and hurriedly asked, "Wait, why are you still coming! How about you try shooting the wall with armor-piercing rounds and see what happens? Don't waste your energy, it's annoying to keep getting attack warnings..."

"You can see?" He Zhijun narrowed his eyes, scanning the corners of the factory building. He found no surveillance equipment at all!

"...Isn't that obvious? Otherwise, how would I know you sent people to make hand gestures!"

"Let's get back to the point." Section Chief Zhou exchanged a look with He Zhijun, signaling him to have the men withdraw first. After all, based on their previous conversation, Section Chief Zhou was certain that Guo Yi's personality was that of a tech geek who hadn't experienced the harsh realities of society. As for the potential technologies Guo Yi had exposed during their conversation... He was just an ordinary section chief, not a scientist. Who knows what things like "Zero-gravity mobile fighter," "Next-generation unlimited nuclear-driven assault module complex," "Variable phase-shift armor and phase-shift armor," and "Beam restrainer" were. The only thing he could somewhat understand was the "Full-coverage exoskeleton mobile armor." But there wasn't a single company or research institute in the world with a finished product of this kind! And he, a sole proprietor, actually created it? Did he swallow common sense? As for the rest, they would be recorded first and submitted to the relevant researchers later. As for Guo Yi, according to what he unintentionally revealed, there were no other passages underground. So, they could surround the place first. In the worst-case scenario, there were observation satellites and helicopters on patrol as backup. At the same time, through their conversation, Section Chief Zhou also discovered Guo Yi's identity as a hacker. The legendary hacker in the hacker world, the famous and mysterious hacker - "Poison King"! Someone who earned a recognized title after only one operation. That one operation was simple: he had looted the funds of all the drug dealers worldwide!

All the money drug dealers had deposited in banks vanished without a trace, their whereabouts unknown…

Many people guessed he was already dead.

After all, he had only made one move and then there was no more activity.

Unexpectedly, they had encountered his true form here…

Provided, of course, that what Guo Yi said was true!

"So, everything you've done is because you want to conduct experiments and develop products?"

"What else would it be?"

Guo Yi replied casually, holding his dog.

After chatting for so long, he knew the more he spoke, the more he exposed.

But he didn't care; they would find out eventually anyway.

As for whether he was leaking secrets to these people…

Did they really think the secrecy regulations were fake?

Not to mention, based on his calculations, after this matter was over.

He would be set for life!

Living a life of luxury, where his needs were met without lifting a finger.

"Then, according to you, why didn't you go into business yourself, or find a special channel to enter the relevant research departments?"

Section Chief Zhou scoffed, "If you truly had the capability, you could have entered a special research institute through special recruitment.

Then you wouldn't have to conduct experiments in secret by yourself, nor would you need to trade with 'K2'.

Wouldn't these methods be better?"

"I have no interest in doing business, and besides, big brother, I'm just an ordinary kid. Who would listen to me?

I have no background, no funds, and no connections.

Am I so bored that I'd waste time on building connections and engaging in office politics?"

Speaking of this, Guo Yi complained to Section Chief Zhou with great displeasure, "If a ten-year-old kid told you he wanted to conduct the strictest military tests, would you agree? Or would you just ignore him?

Let alone anything else, even if I could get in, by the time I could lead an experimental project, how much time would have been wasted…"

"So you're doing it yourself?

Aren't you afraid of getting into trouble?"

"Hehehe~"

Section Chief Zhou's question clearly hit a nerve with Guo Yi, making him chuckle happily, "Don't you think it's interesting?

Look, all of you are surrounding me, trying to catch me, but you can't even get through the door!

See how happy I am doing it myself!

It's just a bit slow on progress…

Besides, if it weren't for those scoundrels at K2 intercepting the supplies I was smuggling, you probably wouldn't even know I existed!"

"…"

Guo Yi's words echoed through the communication channel.

Section Chief Zhou and He Zhijun, along with other commanders, instantly had grim expressions, while the members of the special assault team gritted their teeth in anger.

This was practically calling them useless to their faces!

"Report! Big Wolf requests permission to use the PF98 120mm Anti-Tank Rocket Launcher!"

Ostrich Deng Zhenhua roared even louder in the communication channel.

However, Guo Yi was completely unfazed, "Try all you want! Behind the E-carbon steel, there's another layer of PS armor!

If you can break through it, I'll admit defeat!"

"Agreed!"

He Zhijun, also holding back a surge of anger, loudly ordered everyone in the assault team, "Fall back, list all available weapons, and we must breach this factory!"

"...Uh, don't get excited, I was just kidding! Just kidding!"

Even though Guo Yi hadn't seen He Zhijun's imposing words in person, just hearing them through the communication channel made him involuntarily shudder.

"I will submit what you've said to the relevant personnel for verification."

Section Chief Zhou glanced at He Zhijun's face, which was slightly flushed with anger, and silently gave him a knowing look. Then he said to Guo Yi, "As for the attack, you'll have to handle it yourselves.

However, you must provide me with proof that you are still inside and will not escape!"

"That's easy!"
