Chapter 137 - Chapter 137: Hua Tuo's Divine Creation! The "Qing Nang Shu"!

After speaking with the CIA director, Bruce had figured out Kaitō Kid's target.

The CIA has a special vault that holds highly important intelligence data.

It also contains an important artifact that the CIA recently recovered from the country of A.

However, this isn't an item from the country of A, but from the Dragon Nation — the Qing Nang Shu (The Yellow Emperor's Book of Medicine). This book was written by the famous doctor Hua Tuo during the Three Kingdoms period, and it details his medical expertise.

The traditional Chinese medicine of the Dragon Nation is a world-renowned legend, and Eagle Nation naturally wanted to uncover its secrets.

This Qing Nang Shu was discovered in the country of A and was preserved in excellent condition.

Once the CIA found out about it, they immediately acted to retrieve the book.

They are currently searching for experts to help decode the ancient text contained within the book.

"Doesn't the CIA have anything else that could interest Kaitō Kid? It's only the Qing Nang Shu," Bruce analyzed seriously. "If we control the slightest movement on this floor, our chances of capturing Kaitō Kid will greatly increase!"

Although he was not a match for Kaitō Kid, Bruce knew very well what would attract him. Not only Bruce, but people from all over the world also knew.

Kaitō Kid wouldn't even glance at ordinary precious jewels.

Every time he struck, it was to steal rare and invaluable artifacts, all of which were from the Dragon Nation.

This is why there have been rumors that Kaitō Kid is actually a secret agent from the Dragon Nation.

"Director Bruce, should we move the Qing Nang Shu to another location?" the CIA director asked anxiously.

It wasn't that he didn't trust Bruce, but since Kaitō Kid's appearance, he had never missed a target.

Even last night, at the FBI headquarters, Bruce had let him get away.

There was no doubt about Bruce's strength, but against a more powerful Kaitō Kid, there was nothing Bruce could do. No comparison, no pain.

"No, no, no!" Bruce immediately shook his head to dismiss the director's suggestion.

"Why do you think Kaitō Kid knows about the Qing Nang Shu? Have you never thought about that?"

"Why is it that every time his information is completely accurate?"

Bruce's series of questions left the director dumbfounded.

The Qing Nang Shu had been secretly brought back by the CIA, and no more than ten people knew about it.

The reason they hadn't started decoding it was because they were still looking for experts who could guarantee absolute confidentiality.

The director's mind grew more and more unsettled.

The secret about the Qing Nang Shu had been leaked — at the very least, Kaitō Kid knew about it!

"Director Bruce, are you implying that Kaitō Kid has a more powerful intelligence organization behind him than the CIA?"

Although this idea was hard to believe, it seemed like there was no other explanation.

Eagle Nation's CIA is recognized worldwide as the largest intelligence organization.

Yet now, to think that a master thief might be backed by an intelligence organization more powerful than the CIA seemed almost too absurd.

"Kaitō Kid definitely has a reliable source of information, we just don't know exactly what it is!"

"If possible, I would like the CIA to help investigate this!"

"As for tonight's operation, we should prepare right now!"

Tonight, Kaitō Kid was going to appear at the CIA, and everyone on this floor was to be moved to other floors. 

And Bruce had also arranged for a team of agents to be hidden throughout this floor.

On the other side, after completing the task of returning the Tsar's Imperial Scepter, Zhang Yang had already upgraded his monocle to the advanced level.

The system's all-knowing assistant can now provide Zhang Yang with any needed information directly on the monocle.

This upgrade provides a huge convenience, but it's also a significant hit to his remaining points.

And after upgrading to the advanced level, the monocle can now scan and analyze various items in real-time, including facial recognition, offering relevant information.

As for infrared imaging and night vision, those are no longer an issue.

"The super monocle needs 600,000 points. If the advanced one is already this powerful, what will the super monocle be like?" Zhang Yang marveled. However, 600,000 points was still a lot, and it would take Zhang Yang some time to accumulate that.

Other skills also needed upgrading, and continuing to level up the monocle might not be the most cost-effective choice for now.

The advanced monocle was already more than enough for his current needs.

"I need the structural layout of the CIA building and the exact location of the vault."

After Zhang Yang gave the command, the monocle quickly displayed a 3D model of the CIA building, including the location of their security system.

The vault's location was specifically marked in the structural diagram. It was in the center of the fifth floor, surrounded by a winding corridor for protection.

"What kind of security systems are there in this corridor?"

Wherever Zhang Yang's attention was focused, the monocle would sensibly enlarge that area for him.

Ding!

"According to the information obtained by the super hacker breaking through the firewall, there are three security systems in the winding corridor!"

"The first requires biometric authentication with fingerprint synchronization!"

"At the first corner of the corridor, a specific code is needed to unlock the first mechanical door!"

"The last security measure is a mechanical lock on the vault, along with iris recognition technology."

Not only did the assistant explain, but the monocle also displayed a 3D image of the security system, allowing Zhang Yang to quickly understand it.

"Such a hassle. The last one with the iris recognition — the CIA people won't be easily fooled!"

"And Bruce will definitely get everyone out!"

The fingerprint authentication wouldn't be difficult. Zhang Yang just needed to collect a fingerprint from a leader at the CIA office, and he could pass that.

As for the mechanical lock and identity clearance, those were even easier.

While Zhang Yang was contemplating, a sudden flash of inspiration hit him. A bold idea emerged.

In the afternoon, there were already many media reporters near the CIA building, and there were plenty of people watching.

This time, the CIA hadn't evacuated all its personnel, which aroused even more curiosity from the onlookers.

"Didn't Bruce get involved? Why is there no movement at the CIA?"

"That bastard Bruce, if it weren't for his pride and underestimation last time, maybe he would have caught Kaitō Kid!"

"The CIA is the Eagle Nation's military intelligence center. They can't just evacuate everyone!"

"Kaitō Kid's new preview letter invited Bruce. Wouldn't Bruce participate in the operation?"

At this time, the CIA director had already moved everyone on the fifth floor to other floors as per Bruce's instructions.

Now, there was only Bruce and a few FBI agents on this floor.

Aside from them, no unrelated personnel were present. This was exactly what Bruce wanted!
