《After Divorcing, She Shocked The World (1)》Chapter 167 - Coincidental Encounter In The Warehouse
Advertisement
The government building was tightly managed, but the security measures around the Special Agent warehouse were relatively simple.
Wu Mei looked at the touchscreen that had lit up at the door. She was wearing a pair of rubber gloves that could conceal fingerprints. She typed in two lines of the password from her memory and heaved a sigh of relief when the green light shone after the system verification. Fortunately, the high-ranking officials from the Ministry of Defense did not remember to change the password to the warehouse...
She successfully pushed open the door of the warehouse. Looking at the neatly arranged storage shelves in front of her, she tried to recall where she had thrown the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus Fruit.
Wu Mei was extremely familiar with the displays here. When she saw the personal storage cabinets of a few high-ranking special agents, her gaze fell on the dusty shelf.
No one has touched M's locker in a long time. There were originally three boxes, but there is only one left now...
Recalling the argument between Ben and K, Wu Mei narrowed her eyes and wondered what K's motive was in wanting to take over her belongings.
Calculating the time for the next round of shift change for the patrolling Special Agents, Wu Mei walked to the two shelves at the front based on her memories. As expected, she saw the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus Fruit wedged in the gap. She fished it out and stuffed it in her arms. Just as she was about to leave the warehouse, she stopped and turned around to flip open M's storage box.
The box was filled with the new concealed weapons and cold weapons that M had collected from all over the world. Wu Mei picked out a special hairpin and played with it in her palm.

This was something that M had brought back. It could be used as an accessory for women and could also be used as a weapon to kill.
The ruby inlaid in the hairpin could be moved. Upon contact, it would activate the mechanism in the notch, allowing one to hide some poison powder inside to scheme against an enemy.
Wu Mei pocketed it with satisfaction, thinking to herself that she had reaped a lot of unexpected gains this time.
She had just come out of the warehouse when she saw K approaching. He had clearly noticed her. Wu Mei didn't have time to dodge. She could only turn around and pretend to be testing the warehouse's touchscreen as she randomly tapped on it, pretending to be curious.
K quickly walked to her side and grabbed her wrist to pull her away. He asked coldly, "Why are you here?"
With a natural expression on her face, Wu Mei replied, "I was delivering something to Ben. When I came out of his office, I happened to see someone heading this way and he seemed to have entered this door. I was a little curious and wanted to see what was inside."
"I didn't expect to need a password. It is a government building indeed... Identity verification is needed everywhere."
Wu Mei appeared somewhat dissatisfied as she said this, but K did not seem to be fooled by her. Instead, he stared at her with a doubtful expression and asked, "What does the person you saw look like? Where did he come from and what did he do after coming out of the warehouse?"
"Didn't he realize that you were tailing him?"
As a Special Agent who can enter and exit the government building, he should have the most basic anti-reconnaissance ability. If he can't even detect a newbie agent like Wu Mei tailing him, it's highly likely that Wu Mei is lying or someone from another organization has infiltrated this place!

Either way, it's very dangerous...
K's gaze was fixed on Wu Mei and filled with oppression. "If you can't explain, I don't mind taking you to Ben for a confrontation."
"You should know that you have no right to enter this building, right?"
K tried to trick Wu Mei to blurt out the real reason she was here, but Wu Mei's mental fortitude was extremely strong and she knew that K was a little suspicious. She raised her hand to prop up her chin and pretended to recall while muttering to herself, "It was a girl. She was about the same height as me, but her figure was thinner than mine. She had a ponytail and was wearing a black leather suit. She seemed to be carrying two silver pistols at her waist..."
"She probably didn't notice me. She seemed to have something on her mind the entire time. She stood at the door of the warehouse for a while before walking in that direction!"
Wu Mei raised her hand and pointed in the direction of M's original office as she looked at K with an exceptionally frank gaze.
She had deliberately described M's usual attire when she was on a mission. The new Special Agents would never know these details.
At the same time, this would baffle K and make him dispel his doubts. As Wu Mei had expected, K's expression instantly became solemn. As if he was muttering to himself, he said, "Is it her?"
K gritted his teeth and clenched his fists as he stared straight ahead. Could it be that M isn't dead?
Why is she back then? Is she here to look for something?!
K tensed up and quickly left the place, heading in the direction Wu Mei pointed at to find her.
Glancing at his back, Wu Mei didn't linger around and left the government building.
