Chapter 648: Grace Causes Catastrophe for X BUREAU Team Members

Tina had been on the perimeter, watching Courtney's direction through a thermal imager. Jared was beside her, tapping rapidly on the computer. Three seconds later, he announced, "Tina, it's connected."

Tina pressed her earpiece, "Vanguard team, can you hear me?" All members, including Courtney, were momentarily startled. Courtney tapped in Morse code through her earpiece-Miss Reed?

"It's me. Advance according to my command. There are more bombs here than the previous infrared scan detected. Proceed with caution." Everyone in X Bureau knew that Tina was Jared's fiancée and naturally followed her commands, aware that Jared was surely by her side. This reassurance inexplicably calmed the advancing vanguard team.

"Number one and number two, move to the left; three and four, follow half a meter behind them. Courtney, you lead the rest from the nine o'clock direction, and be careful not to touch the walls. There are electrified nets on the walls that could alert those inside."

The vanguard team followed Tina's directions, successfully avoiding many triggers and getting closer to the buried bombs. In the command vehicle, Nathan, watching the images from the thermal imager, instantly understood. Jared and Tina must be nearby; this method of operation was Tina's style. Careful and lethal. Nathan, who had been with Jared and Tina for years, knew this well.

Moreover, Tina's equipment was more advanced than that of X Bureau, capable of detecting traps they could not. This would allow Courtney to complete the mission more swiftly. Elsa, leading the national intelligence bureau, was also ready. They were not experts at defusing bombs, but provided ample support from the perimeter.

Under Tina's command, Courtney quickly dismantled the first bomb site. She tapped a few times on her earpiece-point A successful. Tina nodded in satisfaction. Elsa's team also received the signal and moved in.

yet she felt something was amiss with this operation. The involvement of both the national intelligence bureau and X Bureau suggested they might be targeting GTO. This was unacceptable-if GTO was compromised, she would surely face punishment, an experience she never wanted to repeat. Regardless of whether this was about GTO, she couldn't
