Jinge City.
A transport plane landed at the airport outside the city. Once it came to a stop, figures filed out of the aircraft.
After tossing their luggage into a car, Colonel Luo swept his gaze across everyone's faces. "Let's head back to the dormitory first."
On the way to the Dragon Rider dormitory, Colonel Luo could clearly sense that the atmosphere in Jinge City was far more oppressive than before.
Not only did military vehicles pass by from time to time, but there were hardly any pedestrians on the streets.
Previously, the atmosphere had been tense, but there had at least been some pedestrians on the roads. Now, aside from military vehicles roaring past, he did not see a single civilian.
"It looks like the entire city is under martial law."
Deputy Commander Bai turned her gaze back from the car window. "This should be to prevent Freedom Wings' espionage activities during this unusual period, right?"
Colonel Luo nodded. Although the Strategic Affairs Department had previously conducted a territory-wide sweep targeting the 'Water Drop Plan' and had basically eliminated the 'water drops' Freedom Wings had planted within its territory,
who could guarantee that, apart from those 'water drops,' no one else was serving Freedom Wings?
The fact that Hu Ziqiang had been able to obtain a pass for the restricted section of Yun Ya Highway alone showed that Freedom Wings still had moles here. The Strategic Affairs Department had not rushed to eliminate them because it feared alerting the enemy and failing to draw out the bigger fish behind them. That was why it had turned a blind eye.
In a key location like Jinge City, even if Freedom Wings could not plant a piece on the Strategic Affairs Department's base, it would still arrange informants throughout the city.
