"Yes, sir, please."
...
The exercise ended, and the Wolf Fang Brigade returned in triumph. Everyone gave a mission briefing, including Li Ling.
However, in his mission briefing, he only mentioned that he encountered a girl named 'Tongtong' during the operation, and that he received some help from her because he helped her fix her car.
Just a few days after training resumed, an uninvited guest arrived at the Wolf Fang Brigade base.
Li Ling was summoned to Gao Zhong's office. The moment Li Ling saw Miao Lian, he knew that the time to infiltrate the Ma family group was fast approaching.
"Miao Lian? What brings you here?" Li Ling walked quickly to Miao Lian, looking at Miao Lian, who was dressed in casual clothes, with a delighted expression.
"If Chen Pai Laopao and the others knew you were coming, they would be overjoyed!"
"Hehe, you brat, they'll be happy, but aren't you happy?" Miao Lian teased with a smile.
Li Ling grinned: "How could that be! Of course I'm happy. I thought we'd never see each other again! I didn't expect to see you so soon. You must leave your contact information this time. Chen Pai and I will come to visit you in the future."
Seeing the sincerity in Li Ling's eyes, Miao Lian was greatly relieved. He waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about it later! Sit down first. I came to see you today because I need your help with something."
Seeing this, Gao Zhong didn't disturb the two and said, "Old Miao, you two chat, I'll go check if those bastards are slacking off."
After the high school team left, Li Ling said to Miao Lian, "Miao Lian, if there's anything you need me to do, just say so. As long as it's within my power, I'll do it without hesitation."
Miao Lian nodded with satisfaction: "Do you remember the girl named Tongtong that you met during the demolition of the Blue Army's logistics center?"
Li Ling feigned surprise upon hearing this: "Tongtong? What happened to her? Hey, Miao Lian, there's nothing between me and her! I have a girlfriend, I wouldn't make a mistake!"
"Hehehe... Don't be nervous, let me finish." Miao Lian waved his hand, interrupting Li Ling with a smile. Then his expression turned serious, and he said solemnly, "This Tongtong's full name is 'Ma Qitong,' and her background is quite complicated."
"The Ma family drug trafficking group is a major scourge entrenched in the border areas of our country. They rely on Yuanshan Town, have foreign connections, and control a huge international drug trafficking network."
Li Ling's expression was solemn, his brows furrowed. Miao Lian waited quietly for him to process the news.
After a long silence, Li Ling finally asked, "What about Ma Qitong? Is she also a member of the drug trafficking group?"
“No, she is very clean.” Miao Lian shook her head.
"Oh!" Li Ling nodded, his brows relaxing.
Miao Lian raised an eyebrow upon seeing this and said, "Hey, Xiao Zhuang, I'm not telling you this so you'll care about her. The social conditions and people's sentiments in Yuanshan Town are too complicated. All the informants we infiltrated have been sacrificed."
"The enemy's methods were extremely cruel, and our scouts and special agents met tragic ends."
Li Ling frowned again. After a couple of seconds of contemplation, he looked up at Miao Lian and said in a deep voice, "Miao Lian, I think I understand why you're here. Just tell me! What do you want me to do?"
Miao Lian nodded in satisfaction: "Very good, Xiao Zhuang, I didn't misjudge you. Listen to me, Ma Qitong likes you very much. What you need to do is... get close to her and infiltrate the Ma family group."
Li Ling nodded and said, "We've all learned about undercover reconnaissance, disguised infiltration, liaison behind enemy lines, and establishing intelligence outposts. Special forces and special operations personnel are not much different. I'm willing to do this."
"Good, good, good soldier! I didn't misjudge you!" Miao Lian's eyes showed admiration as he patted Li Ling's shoulder vigorously and praised him repeatedly.

Chapter 64 Infiltrating Yuanshan Town
Miao Lian left, telling Li Ling to wait for his news and that he would notify him when he was needed.
Who knew that this wait would last for more than half a year, and Li Ling had an extra clef on his shoulder, becoming a veteran as well.
Lone Wolf B team became the veteran team of this season, training a group of rookies. They then participated in the border anti-drug operation codenamed "Jungle Wolf", helping the hunters of Langde Village to wipe out the invading drug trafficking group's armed members.
This time, thanks to Li Ling, who knew the plot, many unexpected things were avoided, including the danger caused by Da Bao's dog. Li Ling had tied up the dog named Xiao Bao with a rope beforehand and made Da Bao keep it on a leash.
Without this unexpected incident, the old gunman's minefield was completely successful, and the Lone Wolf B team wiped out the drug trafficking gang without suffering any casualties. The Jungle Wolf anti-drug operation was a complete success.
When they came down from the mountain, Li Ling was called to a tent by Captain Gao. In the tent, he met He Zhijun, the captain of the Wolf Fang Brigade, and a policeman in plainclothes.
"Captain, what brings you here?" Li Ling looked at He Zhijun with great surprise and asked him.
He Zhijun didn't waste any words and went straight to the point: "Your Miao Lian is in trouble. This is a comrade from the provincial department. Let him talk to you!"
Li Ling looked at the policeman, frowned, and nodded.
"Section Chief Miao met with an informant in the border area, fell into a drug cartel's ambush, and was kidnapped." After explaining the situation in the most concise way, the police officer quietly looked at Li Ling.
Li Ling asked expressionlessly, "Who did it?"
"A drug cartel entrenched in Yuanshan Town."
Li Ling blurted out, "Ma Qitong's family?"
The policeman nodded and said in a deep voice, "We really have no other choice. Section Chief Miao is missing, and all our informants who infiltrated the Ma family have been killed."
Li Ling nodded, looked at He Zhijun, and said, "I understand, Captain. Please give the order!"
Seeing Li Ling's unwavering determination, He Zhijun nodded approvingly and said, "No matter what difficulties you encounter, you must remain calm and composed."
"This is a special battle, and you have undergone the most rigorous special training. I believe you will complete the mission well, and I wish you a speedy return."
"Siberian wolf, are you ready?"
Li Ling straightened up, saluted He Zhijun, and said decisively, "Always ready!"
