Hello, Mr. Major General

The soldiers lowered their heads in shame and one of them said, "We were already on our way the very moment we received your order, sir. However, we found cars tailgating us when we were halfway down the road. Dealing with that delayed us."

That delay was only a mere ten minutes, but Huo Shaoheng slammed his fist heavily on the desk and chuckled coldly. "They were good. They had actually set traps all around for us." He looked at the soldiers and said with a straight face, "Did you guys not expect that there would be people to distract you? When we're done with everything here, go back and write up a report and submit it to your in-charge. He will deal with your mistakes as he wishes."

The group of soldiers nodded but looked extremely angry. One of them braced himself and said boldly, "Sir, please allow us to make up for our mistake!"

"Yes, sir! Hong Kangquan escaped through our hands. We hope to be able to arrest him now!"

"I agree! We want to be the ones to arrest him!"

Each and every single one of the soldiers was full of fighting spirit, like they truly wanted to make up for that mistake.

Huo Shaoheng raised his head, his eyes showing that he was proud of them. "Alright. If you are able to arrest Hong Kangquan this time and make up for your mistake, I will explain the entire situation to your in-charge."

It was not important that there was an issue. What was important was whether they had the adaptability to solve the issue. This was the ultimate aim of the training that Huo Shaoheng had put every single one of the Special Operations Forces soldiers through. It would be impossible for their missions to be smooth sailing every single time, as there would be obstacles like these appearing more often than not. What would set them apart from ordinary soldiers would be how they handled these obstacles when they were faced with them.

"Thank you sir!" The soldiers felt hopeful immediately and saluted Huo Shaoheng formally.

Huo Shaoheng waved his hand. "Alright. Let's stop talking about things that won't help. When did the airport realize that Hong Kangquan had escaped?"

The soldier who was in charge took a step forward and played the CCTV recording for Huo Shaoheng. "It was about five minutes before we arrived. They had noticed that the 'Hong Kangquan' wearing the dress was not moving at all. He was merely lying face down on the table. Therefore, they entered the room to probe him and checked on him. It was only then they had realized he was dead. At that point, they realized the dead person wasn't Hong Kangquan at all, but rather one of their fellow police officers in the airport."

Huo Shaoheng folded his arms and looked at the CCTV recording with his sharp eyes. Suddenly, he pointed at a car and said, "Stop. Zoom in on that car."

The soldiers operated the computer from the side and zoomed in on the car that Huo Shaoheng had wanted to take a closer look at. It was a seemingly normal black Passat. However, its windows were tinted a dark shade of brown, and they even had a special layer of coating on them. Therefore, even if they were to zoom in, they would not be able to see the people in the car clearly.

However, since they had managed to find the car, it would be easy to find the footage from before they had gotten into the vehicle. In no time at all, they had found the footage of the person who looked like a lawyer. He was getting into the car, but only his back could be seen.

There was also another man getting into the car. He was wearing an airport police officer's uniform and sat in the car's back seat. This man was slightly overweight and had to be Hong Kangquan. The police officer that they had killed and Hong Kangquan had such similar builds, so that was why they were able to switch so easily. Hong Kangquan and that fake lawyer had killed an airport police officer, swapped clothes with him, and then escaped from the airport while the airport was in a frenzy.

"Use the car's registration and license plate and put it on the national wanted list," Huo Shaoheng issued the command calmly. "Inform all the soldiers on standby at the Special Operations Forces to turn on all the cameras along the road and do a search immediately and check which direction the car is heading in." With that, Huo Shaoheng walked towards the door.

He got into a bulletproof SUV with the people he had brought from the Special Operations Forces headquarters and left the airport. The soldiers from the Special Operations Forces branch in C City took their own transport and returned to the branch to await further instructions.

Before they even entered the expressway, the technicians from the Special Operations Forces had already called them to report their findings. "Sir, we've found the car!" The tech sent a screenshot of the cameras to Huo Shaoheng.

Huo Shaoheng furrowed his eyebrows as he looked at that road. "Where would they be heading?" It didn't look right. It looked like they were traveling in the direction of the embassies.

The tech confirmed Huo Shaoheng's suspicions in a second. "Sir, if we've guessed correctly, this car is currently moving toward the embassies. To be more specific, they are traveling towards Japan's embassy in C City."

It seemed like the Japanese spies had come into the picture this time around, after all. A cold blooded expression flashed across Huo Shaoheng's face.

In order to get to the Japanese embassy in C City from the airport, the shortest distance would be a 51.9-kilometer drive. If they were to take the Huaxia and Zhong Huan Expressway, they would need 57 minutes at least. Due to the fact that the Japanese embassy in C City was located in a more upscale district, they couldn't speed, even if they wanted to. The black Passat had already left half an hour ago, which meant that they were half an hour ahead.

Huo Shaoheng narrowed his eyes and issued an order. "I don't care what you guys do, do not allow them to get anywhere near the embassy area!" They had intended to hide at the Japanese embassy to escape punishments on foreign soil?! Dream on!

The moment Huo Shaoheng's order was issued, the Special Operations Forces branch there kicked into high gear. After many years of extreme training and real life missions overseas, the elites of the Special Operations Forces were more cruel and decisive compared to the combat police in the country.

With such a big issue happening in the embassy area in the country, the nation had to definitely do something to "show their utmost concern." Therefore, countless police vehicles were deployed. One team stopped outside the entrance of C City's embassy area and ensured that not even mice could slip past them.

The other team set up countless road blocks before the entrance and placed more than enough manpower at each station so as to interrogate every single vehicle that was moving toward the embassies. Every single car had to go through body searches, fingerprint collection, and even had to have hair and blood samples taken in order to do a DNA test in the system.

Due to the "negative" impact of this incident happening during the election, the most important leaders, Senior Speaker Long and General Ji, were going to call for an "emergency meeting."

In order to protect the people who were in charge of foreign affairs, Senior Speaker Long and General Ji hoped that they would remain wherever they were and just cooperate with the nation's police force so that they would be able to contribute to arresting the people who were the black sheep.

Senior Speaker Long had even gone on air and showed his strong support for the punishment of those who abused the policy of having embassies of other countries in the Huaxia Empire's cities. He also requested that the police force do everything they could to arrest those who tried to claim diplomatic immunity while hiding in their country's embassies in foreign lands and re-emphasized that the Huaxia Empire was a country that had been promoting peace and harmony since basically forever. They were also a country that was kind to its neighbors.

"…However, we will never allow our neighboring countries to make use of our kindness and overturn the friendly policies we officially have. The people of the Huaxia Empire do not create trouble, but we are never afraid of trouble, either!" This announcement by Senior Speaker Long confused the reporters.

A CNN reporter asked carefully, "Senior Speaker Long, sir, the news we have gotten was that someone is trying to create trouble with the Japanese, American, Australian, and Indian embassies. They did not want to create trouble with the Huaxia Empire's…"

Senior Speaker Long looked at him like he was looking at a fool and said, "Trying to create trouble in a foreign embassy that is set up in our country means they are going against the Huaxia Empire! May I ask what misunderstandings you have about that, please? Did you truly think that we are still able to shamelessly announce that we are not biased when we allow the Americans and Japanese to have embassies here?!" These words were extremely strong. The CNN reporter was breaking out in a cold sweat upon hearing this and left to do his report back to America.

On social media platforms, the sudden mishap at the embassy area in C City had also caught the attention of netizens. Under the intentional influence of the marketing department of the Special Operations Forces, the accounts unintentionally moved in the direction the marketing department of the Special Operations Forces wanted them to go. They were crazily commenting on how the local government did not protect the embassies well, scaring the officials with high social status at the embassies so badly.

Since there were so many netizens voicing the opinion that the police force in C City was incapable, the District Commander of Police stood up to apologize immediately. He also explained that they did not have enough manpower. Therefore, they requested military assistance in order to provide the best safety to the embassy area in C City.

Therefore, in ten minutes' time, about ten vehicles appeared at the "majority's" request, drove to the embassy area, and officially surrounded the entire area. So right at that moment, forget mice, even a housefly would not have been able to squeeze its way through into the embassy area.

Hong Kangquan and the fake lawyer sat in the black Passat, both as pale as sheets, and were in a daze as they looked at the military vehicles close by. The moment they had exited from the airport, they had gone onto Zhonghuan Road to make a detour. They didn't expect that after successfully getting rid of the people tailgating them, they had missed the opportunity in front of them.

Now they could not even get close to the embassy area, much less enter the Japanese embassy in C City! That fake lawyer tried to contact the Japanese embassy from the front seat. "Hirahara-san, can you get people to bring us in?!"

"Ito-san, the situation on our end is extremely bad as well. After discussing it with the ambassadors, we have all come to a common agreement that you had better not come in for the time being." The in-charge of the Japanese embassy in C City used a secret device and communicated with the fake lawyer from an underground room.

"What do we do then?!" The fake lawyer fumed. "The thing that I have on hand is way more important than the entire Japanese embassy! If you allow anything to happen to us, be prepared to cut open your bellies and sacrifice your lives to make up for your mistakes!"
