I felt like a broken doll, my entire body aching as if it were falling apart.
That guy, Zhong Li Kai, not only threw a Small Nuclear Bomb but also stood there unscathed, mocking us. It was simply unbearable.
Wait, a Small Nuclear Bomb?
Does such a thing really exist?
Is the world we live in starting to fall apart?
Just as I was lost in these thoughts, feeling like I was about to be transported to another world, a weak voice came through the squad channel.
"Boss... I... I found something..."
I gritted my teeth against the pain, feeling as if my bones were about to crumble, and weakly asked, "What did you find? Gold bars? Diamonds? Or alien technology?"
"More... more important than those..." Zhong Dali said in a stuttering manner. "It's... it's about the Internal Traitor..."
Internal Traitor?
My heart sank. Could it be that there really was an Internal Traitor in our squad?
This is too cliché!
Even more so than Zhong Li Kai casually pulling out a Small Nuclear Bomb!
"What? An Internal Traitor?" I struggled to sit up, a sharp pain shooting through my back. "Dali, you better not be joking. This is serious."
"No... I'm not joking..." Zhong Dali's weak voice was filled with seriousness. "I... I saw... him... during the battle... secretly... letting it go... just like... he was deliberately losing the game..."
My expression gradually turned serious. Although Zhong Dali was simple-minded, he would never joke about something like this.
Xie Hanshuang also heard Zhong Dali's words, and her face instantly turned grim, looking worse than someone who had eaten expired stinky tofu.
"Who is it?" she asked urgently, a hint of disbelief in her tone.
Zhong Dali fell silent for a moment, as if trying hard to recall or making a final struggle, then slowly uttered a name: "It's... it's Wang Wu..."
Wang Wu?
I was taken aback. Wang Wu was the most inconspicuous member of our team, usually quiet and low-profile, like a transparent glass ball that you couldn't find even if you tossed it on the beach.
I never expected that the Internal Traitor would be him!
Xie Hanshuang looked equally shocked, clearly unable to believe this fact.
"Impossible!" She shook her head in disbelief. "Wang Wu... why would he do this? What does he want? Is it because our team's food is bad? Or because our captain isn't handsome?"
Zhong Dali coughed weakly a few times. "I... I don't know... but... I saw with my own eyes... during the battle... he deliberately... avoided... the enemy's attacks... just like... he was dancing gracefully, elegantly dodging all danger..."
At that moment, the mysterious girl's voice suddenly echoed in the team channel, as cold as ever, like an ancient ice block that never melts: "I... I saw it too..."
"What? You saw it too?" Xie Hanshuang was even more shocked, her eyes wide like copper bells. "What did you see? Was he singing while dancing?"
"Um..." The mysterious girl's voice remained icy. "I... I saw... him... secretly... passing information... to the enemy... just like... playing a game of underground connections, exchanging little notes in a mysterious manner..."
Passing information?
This... this is too much!
My heart burned with rage, wishing I could rush over and tear Wang Wu to pieces!
At that moment, Wang Wu's figure approached from a distance, wearing a strange smile, like a little fox that had just stolen a chicken leg.
"Hehe... you caught me..."
"Wang Wu! Why did you betray us?" Xie Hanshuang shouted angrily, like a cat whose fur had been ruffled. "Do you... do you have any conscience for the instant noodles we shared, the nights we stayed up together, and the times we complained about Zhong Li Kai?"
"Betrayal?" Wang Wu sneered. "I... have never... been loyal to you... just like... I've never liked eating cilantro..."
"You... you..." Xie Hanshuang trembled with anger, unable to speak, like a squirrel whose tail had been stepped on.
I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself down; after all, I was the captain and needed to prioritize the bigger picture.
I walked over to the broken communication device, pretending to check for faults while actually eavesdropping on the enemy's communications.
Sure enough, I heard Wang Wu's voice as he reported our situation to the enemy.
"Report... I've successfully infiltrated the team... they're currently... in complete disarray..."
I couldn't help but smirk inwardly; this guy really knew how to act.
I deliberately raised my voice and said, "It seems the communication device is broken. We need to fix it quickly; otherwise, we won't be able to contact headquarters."
Wang Wu's expression changed instantly; he clearly hadn't expected me to say that.
He hurriedly replied, "No... no need to fix it... I... I can use my communication device to contact headquarters..."
"Oh? Is that so?" I looked at him with a half-smile, "Your communication device? How come I didn't know you had one?"
Wang Wu stammered, unable to find his words.
I chuckled to myself; the fish was hooked.
"Wang Wu," I fixed my gaze on his eyes and spoke slowly, "You better come clean, or else... we'll have no choice but to tie you up and send you to Zhong Li Kai, so he can treat you well with a Small Nuclear Bomb."
I intentionally left my sentence unfinished, allowing him some space for imagination.
Wang Wu's face turned pale; he finally realized I wasn't joking.
"I... I'll talk..." Wang Wu said with a trembling voice, "My mission is... to monitor you... and relay your information... to the Dark Council..."
"The Dark Council?" I frowned, "Why do they want to monitor us?"
Wang Wu hesitated for a moment before replying, "Because... because... you threaten... their plans..."
"What plan?" I asked, pressing for more information.
Wang Wu took a deep breath and said, "They... they want to... control the entire world..."
"Control the entire world?" I couldn't help but laugh. "That's... that's so... cliché!"
Wang Wu managed a wry smile. "I... I know... it sounds... ridiculous... but... it's true..."
I pondered for a moment before asking, "Then why did you betray us?"
Wang Wu lowered his head, falling silent.
"Is it because of money?" I inquired.
He shook his head.
"Is it because of threats?" I asked again.
He shook his head once more.
"Then what is it?" I asked impatiently.
Wang Wu looked up at me, his eyes filled with helplessness. "Because... because... I... am... an undercover agent sent by the Dark Council..."
