Into your heart! [ZhanYi FF]

Chapter 35 - The Anonymous User

POV Zhan (I know you have been waiting for this. Today is finally the day. But maybe a little different than you thought?)

Zhan was sitting in the lobby of the hotel on one of the comfortable red armchairs. He was pretending to look at his cell phone, but in reality he was watching Yibo as he looked around in all directions and headed for the exit. But no matter how hard Yibo tried to find an obviously familiar face among all the strangers and his fans, he just didn't see Zhan.

Shaking his head but also smiling, Zhan got up from his chair as Yibo left the hotel. "Tsk, tsk, tsk. How am I supposed to take that now that he didn't see me? As obvious as I was sitting there." Zhan wondered, and walked himself to the hotel exit, where a female agent was already waiting for him.

"There you are at last." She huffed angrily. Xian Chu had already shown that she was a very impatient person and not very polite during her first meeting with Zhan when she was appointed as his partner.

"Hey, I told you that I have plans today. And also, I explained to you that we only see each other when we have a mission." Replied Zhan, annoyed. He himself had only been back in the country for just under two and a half weeks, after spending the past 5 years in Europe and Eastern Europe, working there as a special agent on a secret mission. He was still on vacation, which he had earned. So what did she want? And how did she know where he was?

"The boss sent me to get you. We have a new mission. Why else would I seek you out?"

"How did you know where I was?"

"The boss had a hunch so he sent me here."

"I see, and what is our new mission? What's so important about this mission that my first vacation in five years is cancelled for it?"

"I don't know. That's what the boss was trying to tell us together."

"Well great."

"It's not my fault."

"I already realize that."

"Then stop bitching and come on. The car is over there."

"You do realize it's parked in a no-parking zone, right?"

"I couldn't care less. It would be exaggerated to look for a parking space first and pay for it when I'm just supposed to pick you up."

"You know Xian Chu, you really get on my nerves."

"Welcome to the club. I'm not too thrilled with you either."

"Well at least we agree on one thing." Zhan replied. He followed his colleague to the car and they drove to the new secret base, where the boss was already impatiently waiting for them.

The boss didn't stop with pleasantries and immediately explained to Zhan and his partner what their new mission was. "I have already put together everything you need. You can find the information in the file in front of you. Yesterday, a 44-year-old man walked into a police station and explained that he knew that a high politician was being blackmailed. Apparently, the politician is said to have large debts because he is a gambling addict. In addition, the man explained that the 9-year-old son of the politician had been kidnapped. The politician is being blackmailed with his son. Pay money or your son dies."

"Mhhh okay. But this is a police matter. Why are we making a mission out of it?" Replied Zhan.

"Well, it's like this. The police officers wanted to look into the matter, but the politician in question immediately turned them away, claiming there was no truth to the man's story. When the police officers asked him to tell them the current whereabouts of his son, he refused and had his security personnel escort the two officers out of the house. The police officers checked his financial situation and found out that he indeed has large debts. But because he refuses to cooperate with the police and give details or statements, and because he is a high-ranking politician, those at the top want us to investigate the whole thing discreetly and find out the truth. And if the politician's son really was kidnapped, they want you to free him."
