Yu Wei was not surprised by Han Ning’s question. It was only natural for him to ask for the contact method.

Smiling K was abnormally cautious. Her every communication instance would leave no traces.

“We usually contact each other on the phone. It was always Smiling K who contacted me. No one in my organization could contact her.”

“Every time K contacted me, she would use an overseas phone. There’s no way to trace her.”

Yu Wei looked helpless. It was true. Smiling K had always communicated this way. She would always suddenly appear in Yu Wei’s life like a ghost.

Han Ning rubbed his chin and pondered about what to do next.

“How often do you guys contact each other?” Han Ning continued to ask.

“There’s no fixed time. K doesn’t usually contact us unless it’s absolutely necessary.”

Yu Wei thought for a moment and frowned slightly, recalling her previous contact with K.

“When was the last time she contacted you?”

Han Ning couldn’t help but be in a dilemma. The difficulty of this Smiling K was simply beyond his expectations.

“The last time she contacted me was three months ago. She assigned me a new mission to approach Fu Xin.”

Yu Wei thought for a moment and added before Han Ning could ask him another question.

“K knows everyone’s whereabouts and mission progress. She knows that my latest assignment is about to end, so she’ll probably contact me in the next few days.”

Hearing this, Han Ning had a plan in her heart. His next move would depend on Zhang Zhi’s ability.

“By the way, do you know the area where K often moves around?”

“I don’t know. All I know is that she usually holds a meeting in a bar called The Bamboo Bar. It’s a bar in Thailand and we’ve been there three times. I’m not sure if that bar is her activity area.”

After hearing Han Ning’s question, no matter how Yu Wei thought about it, she could only think of the area in Thailand where the meetings were held. However, she couldn’t be sure if that was K’s activity area.

“Actually, the first time I met K was at that bar. That was the first time I walked out of that corridor after completing my training. I got into a car and it took me a long time to get there. My eyes were covered for the entire process. It took very long for me to arrive so I wasn’t able to remember the route.”

“When we met, the other party was still wearing a mask so I couldn’t tell her appearance at all. However, from her figure, I could tell that she was a woman with a very sexy figure. Her skin condition was very good and it didn’t seem like it was only well-maintained. There was a high chance that she was younger than me…”

Yu Wei revealed all the information he knew with a relieved expression. She knew that the crimes she had committed were unforgivable by the law, but it didn’t seem like a bad thing if she could escape from K’s control.

In the interrogation room, Han Ning was still thinking. Jiang Qing had been sitting in a daze for a long time because she was too shocked.

“That’s it. Yu Wei will be temporarily locked away. We’ll monitor her phone and wait for Smiling K to contact us.”

Han Ning handed the rest of the matter to Jiang Qing to handle. He stood up and left the interrogation room.

When he returned to his office, Zheng Sir and Wang Jing were already waiting for him. Zhang Zhi brought Fu Xin to complete the procedures and sent him out of the police station.

Division Chief Park and the others were also waiting with Agent Ya Cai and his men. What they were about to discuss was not a simple capture operation.

“Han Ning, everyone is here. Tell me what you think first. How do you want to investigate next? This case has a lot of implications. You have to think carefully before acting.”

Superintendent Zheng sat at the head of the table and said solemnly. He had thought that it would be a simple case, but he did not expect it to end up becoming such a huge case.

“Then I’ll tell you what I think first.”

Han Ning took over.

“Zhang Zhi, are you able to track the location of the overseas phone with your technology?”

Zhang Zhi did not expect to be the first to be called out. He thought for a moment and answered firmly.

“We can track it, but it will take more time.”

“How long will it take?”

“It’ll take at least three minutes.”

Zhang Zhi pondered for a moment before Han Ning received an affirmative answer. He nodded and continued.

“From the information Yu Wei gave us, this Smiling K is too cautious. If we want to capture her, ordinary methods will definitely not work.”

“Her contact with Li Chunzai was done through a middleman. We’ll put that aside for the time being. We’ll mainly rely on Yu Wei to figure out the location of Smiling K…”

Han Ning’s thoughts were clear as he analyzed the situation bit by bit.

“Whether we can catch Smiley K’s tail will depend on whether Zhang Zhi’s skills are strong enough. The possibility of Smiley K contacting Yu Wei in the past few days is very high. You have to seize the opportunity and find out the other party’s location.”

Han Ning looked at Zhang Zhi as he said this.

“Zheng Sir, I want to apply for a video call with the Thai and Korean side. We will connect the situation and tailor our next plan of action. The criminal organization this time can basically be confirmed to be an international large-scale money-making organization.”

Han Ning looked solemnly into the eyes of his superior.

“Sure, I approve. It would be fine if the criminal was hiding in Hong Kong. But if she is outside the border, we indeed don’t have any effective methods to capture her directly.”

“Wang Jing, go make the arrangements. Contact them and see if you can arrange a video conference.”

After hearing Han Ning’s plan, Superintendent Zheng arranged for Wang Jing to contact the Thai and Korean side directly and immediately start the meeting.

After all, no one knew when Smiling K would contact Yu Wei.

Han Ning praised his superior’s ability to act. It was a good thing that their next action was decided as soon as possible.

While waiting, Division Chief Park had already urgently contacted his superior. He wanted to tell his superior what had happened before Han Ning could report the case.

Cui Enxi watched coldly as Division Chief Park’s expression changed from anxious to complacent. She felt even more disgusted. This man had probably taken the credit again and gained some benefits from his superior. This was why he looked so different.

The same went for Ya Cai. However, he had reported the matter to his superior truthfully and did not hide any of Han Ning’s contributions. He explained that the reason why they were able to capture the members of the Pius Organization this time was mainly because of Han Ning.

Han Ning sat quietly by the side, waiting for Wang Jing to do her job.

“I’ve contacted them. Zheng Sir, just go to the meeting room. It’s already been prepared.”

Almost an hour later, Wang Jing returned and asked everyone to change rooms to continue the meeting.

Therefore, the first international conference for this case was held between the three countries.

The person in charge of the Thai side was a sturdy black man. With a single glance, one could tell that he was a person who persisted in exercising all year round. His expression was very serious, and one could reasonably guess that the other party was a relatively strict man.

The person in charge of the Korean side was the opposite. His skin was white and thin, and he was a young man with a thick scholarly aura. Under the gentle smile on his face, there was an unconcealable arrogance in his bones.

“Next, the person in charge of this case, Han Ning, will introduce the case to everyone.”

After the three leaders exchanged pleasantries, Superintendent Zheng turned the topic to Han Ning, indicating that he could get to the main topic.

Han Ning didn’t show any signs of fear. He began to sort out the case from the moment Li Chunzai entered the harbor to the point where Yu Wei was lured out.

In the end, he also revealed Yu Wei’s confession and the exposed information regarding the secret organization. However, he did not reveal his own guesses.

After hearing Han Ning’s report, the sergeant of the Thai side was extremely shocked. When Han Ning was explaining the case, he tried his best not to mention his role in it. However, Ya Cai had reported to the sergeant in advance and had told him about the important role the young police officer played in the case.

He compared the reports of the two of them in his heart and realized that without Han Ning, it was impossible for this case to be investigated to such an extent. This middle-aged man, who had been a detective for ten years in Thailand, instantly acknowledged Han Ning.

However, as Han Ning continued to talk about the case, the expressions of the people from the Korean side gradually became worse…
