Chapter 915 - 873: Classified Mission
"I hope Master is alright..."
Just as Ran Xiangsi sighed, Uncle Kang emerged from the cockpit.
"According to the news we’ve received, Wuchen is still alive. That hacker team isn’t a hit squad, they probably wouldn’t do something so reckless."
Uncle Kang couldn’t give a definite conclusion now, and could only make assumptions based on the information at hand.
Since they engaged a hacker team to take Wuchen rather than directly hiring assassins, it’s clear they didn’t intend to kill Wuchen.
As for the purpose of taking Wuchen...
It might be to torture him, or it could be to exploit Wuchen’s talents.
After all, top hackers in this world can accomplish many things.
Ran Xiangsi didn’t understand criminal investigation methods, but since Uncle Kang said so, she chose to believe him.
After a moment of silence, Ran Xiangsi asked, "Uncle Kang, you said you used to know my parents and my Master? What exactly happened between them?"
Regarding why Fengchen accepted Ran Xiangsi as a disciple, and why Falcon recognized Ran Xiangsi, Fengchen never gave Xiangsi a clear answer.
When asked about the past, Uncle Kang also fell silent.
His expression became somewhat grave.
"In all my years as a detective, the two agents I admire most are your parents. They were truly geniuses among geniuses, who understood greater justice and were willing to sacrifice their lives for the country’s benefit."
As Uncle Kang spoke these words, admiration and respect were evident in his eyes.
Uncle Kang was slightly older than Ran Xiangsi’s parents, but that didn’t hinder his reverence for Xiangsi’s parents.
"Back in the day, I was fortunate to participate in a mission with them." Uncle Kang sighed, then fell into silence, seemingly reminiscing about the past.
Ran Xiangsi initially thought Uncle Kang would share details of the mission, but after waiting for a long time without him speaking, she directly asked.
"Uncle Kang? What mission did you participate in?"
"..." Uncle Kang snapped back to reality, and upon realizing what he’d said, quickly changed the subject, "Let’s not talk about that now, how about discussing your newly developed software? It can conduct reverse tracking, right?"
With Uncle Kang’s obvious attempt to change the topic, Ran Xiangsi had no reason not to notice it.
She even noticed that Uncle Kang’s eyes had reddened at some point.
What kind of mission was it back then, that could make someone like Uncle Kang tear up at the memory?
Ran Xiangsi grew increasingly curious...
But since Uncle Kang didn’t want to talk, even if she questioned him, it seemed she wouldn’t learn anything, so she pretended not to be interested in those matters, and instead started introducing her software to Uncle Kang.
"It’s actually a deep analysis of behavior trees. Its working principle is..."
As Ran Xiangsi chatted with Uncle Kang, Princess automatically went into sleep mode obediently.
Originally, its presence was meant to keep its master company and relieve loneliness.
...
Fu Jingxuan followed Uncle Kang out of the cockpit.
As Uncle Kang walked by, Fu Jingxuan stayed in a corner flipping through the latest returned data.
He overheard Uncle Kang’s conversation with Ran Xiangsi and learned about that confidential mission from years ago.
During that mission, Ran Xiangsi’s parents sacrificed themselves.
