Starting From the Dragon Tribe
Chapter 90: Agent Duo
That night, two people infiltrated the Ganryuu Research Institute for the purpose of breaking into the underground computer room, inserting the “Mini Norma” prepared by the Execution Bureau in advance to steal their data.
The Japanese division attached great importance to the Ganryuu Institute. Even their internal database wasn’t connected to the external network at all. Even if Norma could hack through Kaguyahime’s defenses, she still wouldn’t be able to reach offline areas.
And even at night, there were still a large number of patrols. Caesar and Chu Zihang swung with a rope from another building and infiltrated through a blind spot that Chu Zihang had selected during the day, as if they were in the movies.
Before they started to act, he and Caesar had gone to the hot springs together. It was a predetermined contact point with headquarters, and only with the help of headquarters agents did they manage to get rid of the Japanese branch’s spies.
Chu Zihang had proposed to give Lu Chen a shout, but Caesar said that it was so hard for Brother Lu to find love, so we have to give him some time. Also, Brother Lu didn’t seem to be very suited for things like infiltration.
“You’re poking me,” this time, it was Caesar who spoke up, which puzzled Chu Zihang.
Caesar pushed away Murasame’s scabbard. At this time, these two were in black combat attire, their tactical pockets stuffed with secret agent equipment, literally the upgraded versions of Agent 007. It was just that the two also had swords at their hips, which seemed a bit out of place.
It was apparent that the two did not place all their hope on completing this mission completely undetected. They did not rule out the option of breaking through with force.
Chu Zihang led the way, with Caesar bringing up the rear. This was a reasonable infiltration lineup.
Because Chu Zihang had already memorized the layout during the day, and his spatial logic was relatively strong, so letting him lead the way was the better choice, and Caesar, even if his field of vision was blocked by the ass in front of him, he could still control the various conditions around them through Wind Devil.
TL Note: Wind Devil is Caesar’s Kotodama. Its literal translation is the kamaitachi, which is a youkai that slashes with its claws, which are shaped like scythes.
This sort of suffocating infiltration mission really wasn’t to the liking of the Italian nobleman and Chu Zihang, who had grown increasingly irritated.
But after two days of investigation, they, especially Caesar, who had gone to the Genji Heavy Industries and met the “giants” of the Japanese branch, felt that the Japanese really were not to be underestimated.
If he and Chu Zihang tried to break through with force, whether they could contend them was up in the air, but obtaining the information intelligence would be off the table for sure.
But the good thing was that tonight’s infiltration seemed to be going smoothly. With Caesar’s cover, they were able to gradually go down from the top floor to the negative first floor.
The security personnel wandering the corridors would never have imagined that two daring rats had infiltrated the building, who even saluted at them when they passed over their heads.
But they quickly ran into a problem. The ventilation system of the underground plant room was separate from the building itself, and there was no way for them to reach their destination directly.
And there was a guard standing in front of the computer room, a serious expression upon his face. He didn’t seem to be the type of slack off.
Even if they could silently put him out, the Execution Bureau’s special code-breaking tool would take about 20 minutes to open the door, and the building’s guards, according to what they observed, would have two pass by here every 15 minutes.
The corridor in front of the computer room and the junction formed a “T-shape.” The entire corridor was made of thick reinforced concrete. There was nowhere to hide a person, and if the guard suddenly fell down, unresponsive, the people passing would surely notice.
There seemed to be no way around.
Chu Zihang turned around and made eye contact, trying to communicate with Caesar. After a few moments, the two could not help but quietly inch back… who can understand what you mean by your eyes!?
“What to do?” Chu Zihang looked toward the sophomore, Caesar, if he had any clever ideas.
Caesar was also silent. Whether as a sophomore upperclassman, student president, or competitor, he couldn’t tell, but he also had no good ideas.
The two were silent for a long time and could only conclude that… maybe they had to use force?

After taking care of the hybrid guarding the door, Chu Zihang would then put on his clothes, turn off the two lights in the corridors to make the place dimmer. If this worked, it’d be great, but if not, Caesar, who would remain in the vents, would strike the passing security personnel.
In addition to the Desert Eagles, Caesar also brought an M92F, a gun very much not to his taste, but using a flashy firearm like the Desert Eagle was too much for an infiltration mission.
The M92F was good for close range confrontations, and along with the silencer, could prevent others from detecting any sounds.
Of course, the two knew that the probability of success of this plan was very low. For example, even if they put down one group of people, the security personnel may keep in regular contact and would immediately arrive on the scene if they detected something was wrong.
But Chu Zihang and Caesar were clearly not the type of people who would enter the tiger’s den and return empty-handed even if the situation was difficult.
After discussing the plan, they were still hesitant. If they failed and were captured, they would not only be humiliated, but the Japanese branch would also have a reason to denounce the “improper” investigation done by the headquarters.

As the two hesitated, the whole building suddenly sounded an ear-splitting alarm.
The guard below also pulled out a weapon from his waist. It wasn’t a typical baton carried by a security guard, but a kodachi. His eyes blazed with gold. He was placed alone in this position naturally because the clan had confidence in him!
Chu Zihang and Caesar immediately tensed up. They were exposed!?
But they didn’t even do anything yet.
The rope entering the building had been recovered and placed inside the entrance pipe they came in. they were very cautious throughout the whole process, so where exactly did they go wrong?
But Chu Zihang saw through the gap in the vent that the guard’s expression changed all of a sudden, as if receiving some information through his earpiece, and was both alert and conflicted.
At the end of the corridor, security personnel ran through, as if they were mobilized in a rush.
What was the situation?
Chu Zihang and Caesar looked at each other. The Japanese branch’s people didn’t seem to be looking for them. Were there other intruders?
The alarm lasted for nearly three minutes. It was probably a good time to make a move. Even if they made a big fuss exchanging blows with the hybrid below, it wouldn’t be so apparent.
But the two did not rush to make a move. They smelled a hint of weirdness in the happenings of tonight.
What surprised them even more was that the security guard in charge of the door to the computer room finally gritted his teeth, lifted his kodachi, and rushed out the corridor. Apparently, things had gotten worse, and he was being summoned, even if it meant leaving his post!
Another group of people ran past. Caesar frowned and used his Wind Devils to feel around, then nodded towards Chu Zihang. No one should be passing this way anymore. All the security personnel had rushed to an unknown place, as if there was some… horrible enemy.

The two quickly opened the vent and jumped down.
Chu Zihang skillfully dismantled the lock and inserted the Mini Norma cracking tool, which then displayed that it was loading. The time it would take was shorter than they thought, only 18 minutes.
“The craftsmanship of these Japanese isn’t so good after all,” Caesar roasted, but he was tense as he urged his Wind Devils to explore further, wanting to know what was going on within Ganryuu Institute tonight.
