Chapter 802 - Trump card (2/2)

“Don’t bullshit me.” Wang Yun frowned. “Even if he comes, he might not be able to save us, right?”

“Don’t worry, I’m serious when I say that I have a backup plan.” The Great Hoodwinker said, “Do you think our future commander’s reputation is just for show? As long as he knows that we’re being held captive in this secret prison, he’ll definitely save us even if it means demolishing Stronghold 31.”

Wang Yun said in a low voice, “Then our future commander… ptui! Then I’m afraid your future commander isn’t aware there’s a bomb in the passageways either, right? Besides, does he know about my terms for being rescued? He has to bring all of my subordinates along as well!”

“Then do you have any other way to send out this message?” The Great Hoodwinker looked at Wang Yun. “I’ll give you an address, so you can just arrange for someone to send this message there.”

Wang Yun fell silent. It seemed like he did not want to reveal what his trump card was.

The Great Hoodwinker sneered and said, “Why are you still hiding your trump card at a time like this? Who knows if Kong Erdong will kill you on a whim tomorrow? I advise you not to hold back anymore. Your subordinates are all loyal to you, and you’ve been working in the intelligence field for many years. I don’t believe that you don’t have any trusted personnel working inside this secret prison.”

“Give me the address.” Wang Yun said, “You don’t have to worry about the rest.”

After that, Wang Yun ate two mouthfuls of rice before heading back to his cell. On the way back, his expression slowly relaxed.

For some reason, he felt much more at ease when he learned from the Great Hoodwinker that Ren Xiaosu had also come to Stronghold 31.

Wang Yun no longer had a way out. He needed to take a bet and place all his hopes on Ren Xiaosu this time.

In the middle of the night, Wang Yun lay in his cell. When everyone had fallen asleep, he quietly opened his eyes, which turned a silver-gray.

In the narrow ventilation duct above his head, a ball of air wrapped around a pen and a sheet of paper and started floating down towards him. Wang Yun quickly wrote something on the paper and wrapped it with a ball of air again. He then moved it freely through the ventilation duct as he wanted.

The secret prison was located underground, and the ventilation system was as complicated as a huge maze. It would be extremely difficult for normal people to send a note to their destination via this method.

Moreover, the ventilation duct was only 10 centimeters in diameter. Not even a child could fit through that.

Yet Wang Yun was not stumped by something like this.

The note was like a traveler in a maze. It flew off into the distance according to the precise route Wang Yun had memorized.

It finally came to a stop at the ceiling of a room where the ball of air disappeared. Then, someone in the room quickly caught the crumpled paper ball.

The person in the room scanned through the contents of the note before swallowing it into his stomach. Only then did he walk out of the room as though nothing had happened.

Just as the Great Hoodwinker had said, Wang Yun was such a smart person, so how could he not have any backup plans in the secret prison?

Many of the important figures in the intelligence agency would plant their own spies within the secret prison. Such a basic move was only to be expected.

However, none of the spies would go out of their way and remain so loyal once their handlers lost their influence as Wang Yun did.

As a matter of fact, the reason the Great Hoodwinker was willing to risk his life for Wang Yun was because of this. The people in the Northwest were all fond of such loyal geniuses.

As for whether he could rescue Wang Yun’s subordinates as well, that would have to depend on how capable Future Commander was.
