<h4>Chapter 1363: Chapter 1671: Special Agent (2)</h4>


    Beep Beep!


    At this moment, the sound of a car horn came from nearby. Ling Kun and the other two looked up and saw two military jeeps driving toward them, stopping at the entrance of the Ling Family.


    The car door opened, and a man in military uniform jumped down from the vehicle, striding up to Ling Kun and the others, and saluted formally.


    "Hello, I’m Lieutenant Zheng Jiong from the Beijing Military District, ordered to pick up Mr. Ling. There is something that requires Mr. Ling’s cooperation, do you know where he is?"


    Upon hearing this, the expressions of Ling Kun and the other two changed dramatically. Damn it! They fell for it!


    ...


    After half a day of traveling, Ling Chen, following Li Bin, finally arrived in Beijing, at a three-story factory building located in the Beijing Suburbs. This factory had been abandoned, surrounded by wilderness. However, the ce had been taken over by the military as a secret interrogation site for prisoners.


    Standing at the entrance of the factory, Ling Chen suddenly stopped in his tracks. Looking at the front gate, a glint of light shed in his eyes. For some reason, he had a very bad feeling. Once he walked through this gate, he was very likely to be in danger.


    Having been an agent, Ling Chen was well aware of what such a ce represented. This was a secret military interrogation base, easy to enter, but difficult to leave, some people were trapped in ces like this for a lifetime.


    "Mr. Ling, why aren’t you moving?" Li Bin, walking ahead, turned around and asked Ling Chen, who stood still.


    "Mr. Li, I want to know where Tang Yuan is."


    Li Bin pointed at the factory ahead and said, "He’s inside here, you will see him soon. Come on, everyone is waiting for you, don’t waste time."


    Upon hearing this, Ling Chen shook his head helplessly. Now that he’s reached this ce, it’s impossible to turn back. At this moment, Ling Chen adjusted his mood, followed behind Li Bin, and walked straight toward the factory.


    Although the factory had three floors, the ce Ling Chen headed to was the basement beneath the factory—a basement that was over six hundred square meters in size, divided into many small rooms, each reinforced with concrete and steel, specially designed to imprison criminals.


    Walking down the stairs into the basement, a foul smell instantly assaulted his senses.


    Ling Chen looked around and asked, "Mr. Li, where is Tang Yuan? When can I see him?"


    "Don’t rush, he’s resting now, I’ll take you to sit somewhere first, and someone wille to ask you a few questions soon, hope you’ll cooperate."


    Ling Chen nodded, and soon, he was taken by Li Bin into an interrogation room.


    "Mr. Ling, wait here, I’ll go find Tang Yuan."


    "Okay, thank you." After watching Li Bin leave, Ling Chen found a seat on his own, patiently waiting. As moments passed, Ling Chen reached into his pocket to get his phone. However, when he felt an empty pocket, Ling Chen finally remembered that he had handed over his phone upon entry as Li Bin had requested.


    It’s been almost half an hour, why is no one here yet?


    Ling Chen thought to himself, frowning silently. Besides, isn’t this a secret interrogation base? It’s too quiet, not even footsteps or any sound can be heard.


    After waiting a few more minutes, the restless Ling Chen stood up and pushed open the door of the interrogation room. Stepping into the corridor outside, Ling Chen looked around and found there was no one around.


    Seeing this situation, Ling Chen felt increasingly strange. He walked to the neighboring interrogation room, pushed the door open, and saw inside, the room was in aplete mess, all dpidated, seemingly untouched for a long time.


    This... Seeing the scene before him, Ling Chen was slightly stunned, feeling increasingly uneasy. Without time to think further, Ling Chen hurried to the next interrogation room, and simrly found it in the same condition, all filled with rubble, except for the interrogation room he was in, none of the other rooms had been cleaned.


    Moreover, there was not a single person in the entire basement.


    Damn it! What’s going on here? Ling Chen cursed quietly, quickly walking toward the stairs, only to find the door at the top of the stairs already closed. Bang! Bang! Bang! Ling Chen reached the door and started pounding on it, but there was no indication of movement outside.


    Without thinking, Ling Chen kicked at the door fiercely, intending to break through the door in front of him.


    However, to his surprise, except for feeling a strong recoil, the door showed no signs of damage. After a brief moment of staring, Ling Chen pulled out a set of keys and lightly scraped across the door’s surface.


    Shortly after, Ling Chen found in despair that the door was made of steel, both in hardness and thickness, beyond his ability to break. Damn it! Who the hell did this?


    Ling Chen thought silently. It seemed that Li Bin he met earlier wasn’t actually from the military, otherwise, they wouldn’t have brought him to such a ce. The real purpose of those people was likely to trap him here, leaving him to fend for himself in this hell-hole.


    What should I do?


    Ling Chen ruffled his hair, frustrated at being deceived by those bastards. Having called Pang Jiulin and learned about the situation in Beijing, Ling Chen didn’t doubt Li Bin’s appearance at all. But only now did he realize that someone was impersonating a military officer.


    Great, now, without a phone, without food, without drink, calling for help from the heavens or the earth would be futile, all he could do was wait for death.


    Fortunately... This basement had venttion shafts, at least he wouldn’t suffocate to death. Just as he was thinking about this, smoke suddenly began to spew from the venttion shafts in the basement’s ceiling.


    Seeing the thick smoke, Ling Chen couldn’t help but curse loudly. These bastards! Truly despicable, using such methods to deal with him. Without a second thought, Ling Chen ran over, took off his clothes, and stuffed them into all the vents to prevent the smoke from seeping inside.


    After spending about five minutes, all the venttion shafts in the basement were blocked, preventing the smoke froming in. But simrly, losing venttion, the basement waspletely sealed, with no air cirction possible.


    Considering the size of this basement, without air cirction, it would hold out for a few hours at most.


    No! I must quickly find a way to escape or I’ll really die here.


    With this thought, Ling Chen began searching room by room, hoping to find a way out. However, after half an hour, Ling Chen sunk into despair. Besides the steel-made door, the basement had no other exits. Moreover, he had tried digging a tunnel to escape, only to find that the walls surrounding the basement were made of concrete and steel, extremely hard, and it was impossible to escape relying solely on his own strength. With limited air, he couldn’t engage in intense physical activity.


    Damn it!


    Ling Chen slumped to the ground, leaning against the wall, wondering if he was truly going to die here.
