After the multinational conference, Ye Fan was bound together with Cao Zhenxu.

Leaving the conference room, Cao Zhenxu said to Ye Fan, "Mr. Chen, where do you think we should start?"

"What insights does Chairman Cao have?"

Cao Zhenxu smiled a bit, "Nothing much, just a few thoughts. I think we should screen all the Qin Han People who have arrived on the island during this period, including you, since you arrived during this time as well."

"What kind of screening method?"

"It's simple. First, check the ID cards of you and your subordinates to find out where you're from, who introduced you to the island, and through what connections you came. It shouldn't be too hard."

Ye Fan nodded, "Not hard, but before checking me, your people, Chairman Cao, should also be checked. It can't be assumed that there's no suspicion just because you were already on the island. What if you have spies from the Dawn Army among you?"

"You... what nonsense! How could my people possibly be?"

Ye Fan snorted, "If you disagree, then I'll submit it to the council for further discussion, as I'm the councilor now."

Cao Zhenxu's face turned grim, "You're really taking a feather for an arrow, fine, let you check then."

"It's late today, but starting tomorrow, I'll send people into your Qinghongmen. Be ready, Chairman Cao."

With that, Ye Fan got up and left first.

He knew that his own side couldn't afford a check.

First of all, his ID card was from the Divine Dragon Province, a place that raised suspicions immediately upon investigation.

After all, Divine Dragon Province is too far away, and it's extremely difficult for ordinary survivors to come here, making his suspicion very high.

However, since he's a councilor now, he has the power to delay, using it now before it expires is only natural. It's perfectly reasonable to check Cao Zhenxu's side first.

Being able to delay a day is a day gained, as long as it drags on for five days, everything will be different.

After returning to the villa area, Ye Fan immediately instructed to speed up the construction of the walls and villas.

The people from the Military Intelligence Bureau had already infiltrated various groups on the island, coordinating with the War Hawk's perspective to begin reconnaissance of the island's situation.

The day passed quickly, and the next day, Ye Fan sent people into Qinghongmen to check identities.

They checked everyone who had arrived in the past month.

Not just within Qinghongmen, but also other Qin Han People on the island were within the scope of the investigation.

To avoid checking too quickly, Ye Fan intentionally instructed his subordinates to delay the progress as much as possible, to drag on for a day if they can.

After two consecutive days of checks, Ye Fan's side had not even checked half of the Qin Han People on the island. After all, there are hundreds of thousands of Qin Han People on the island, and it's not easy to finish checking them all.

Cao Zhenxu's side had no choice since the current investigation was led by Ye Fan, and he had no choice but to cooperate unconditionally.

But three days later, an unexpected situation arose.

During the investigation at the dock, they discovered Ye Fan's identity registration when he entered the island.

Chen Bufan, from Divine Dragon Province.

The person who introduced him to the island was Jonas from Zijing Country.

When this information was placed on James's desk, he sensed a problem.

Among the Qin Han People who came to Wanguo Island during this period, there were less than ten people from Divine Dragon Province, and Chen Bufan was one of them.

His suspicion immediately greatly increased.

However, these alone were not enough to confirm that Chen Bufan was Ye Fan. He needed more information and immediately made a call to the police station on Wanguo Island.

"This is James. Send two people to Zijing Country to bring Jonas to me."

He sent out two people to Zijing Country to find Jonas.

Two officers from the police station set off in a jeep from the station, heading straight to the Zijing Country's station.

The round trip would take about three hours, and they would know the results by tonight.

.......

Shen Ruihui sat inside a sports car with several agents from the Military Intelligence Bureau beside him.

"Chief, it's this car."

"Are you sure they're going to find Jonas?"

"We shouldn't be wrong. Our electronic warfare soldiers are few in number, so it's impossible to monitor the entire island. We focused on monitoring the police station's phone. Two of our people take turns on duty, one of them listened to James's call. It was just now that he called to notify the police station officers to find Jonas."

Shen Ruihui nodded, "We absolutely cannot let them find James. The officer was introduced by Lawson from Golden City, and Golden City is our base. It's not a secret. Once this news gets out, we'll be exposed."

"Chief, what do we do now?"

Shen Ruihui first drove the car to follow the police station's vehicle.

"They should be finding Jonas and then taking him to James. To delay as long as possible, we should take action on their way back, preventing these people from returning to police headquarters."

"Where should we take action?"

Shen Ruihui thought for a moment, "Try to make it a bit chaotic. Our main force should arrive tomorrow. Tonight, we must not give them the chance to act against us, so... over there."

Saying this, Shen Ruihui pointed to a passing high-rise building.

It was a residential complex for the Japanese, with a ten-story elevator building towering by the roadside.

"Contact Tanya, get her here as soon as possible."

The people below immediately made contact, while Shen Ruihui was responsible for following.

After about an hour and a half, the police officers arrived at the Zijing Country's location and quickly brought out Jonas.

Shen Ruihui and his team immediately followed again and made contact with Tanya.

"Ms. Tanya? Where are you now?"

"I've already reached the designated location, waiting for your arrival."

"Okay, let me report the situation to you now. Our target vehicle is a blue-black police car, license plate Wan: xx342, with an estimated arrival time of eighteen minutes."

"Alright, I'll place the C4 explosive now. If there are any traffic lights or other traffic accidents that cause a change in timing, immediately contact Officer Zhang Meng. He is currently with me."

"Understood."

The vehicle progressed on the streets of Wanguo Island, gradually approaching the designated location.

.....

In the police car, two officers had just finished a call with the police station.

"We've found Jonas, and he's willing to cooperate by returning to the station for questioning."

"We'll be back at the station in about seventy minutes."

After speaking, they hung up the call. The two officers drove leisurely, unaware of anything.

Gradually, they reached the entrance of a small district in the country known as the "Foot Basin Chicken Country."

The officer in the passenger seat glanced over: "The people from this country are quite formidable; they presently rank in the top three on the island."

The officer driving nodded: "Indeed, and I heard they've also made contact with our country. Their military industry has recovered quite rapidly, even building genuine battleships."

"How did they recover so quickly being an island nation?"

"They have many islands. They abandoned the first three of their four main islands and focused all their efforts on reclaiming the fourth. Now, their nation has millions gathered on that island. With the ocean acting as a barrier, they are free from the threat of zombies—it's their advantage."

"Hearing you say this actually makes me a bit worried. If they build a powerful navy, might they come to the Qin Han to develop?"

"Who knows? We should focus on the current issue. Right now, Ye Fan is the threat to our Wanguo Island."

While they were talking, a sports car behind suddenly accelerated, rushed past, and collided with another vehicle ahead.

Suddenly, the traffic became congested, resulting in a traffic jam.

"Damn it! Are these people in that much of a hurry to die? What's so great about driving a sports car these days?"

The two drivers cursed, holding back anger while waiting for the traffic to clear.

But just at that moment, a loud explosion suddenly erupted not far away.

Immediately following the explosion, the crowd began screaming, scattering like a tide in every direction.

The two officers were still confused, but Jonas in the back had already shouted out.

"The building! The building has collapsed!"

The officers turned their heads to look and were immediately struck with horror.

The condominium building of the Foot Basin Chicken was toppling directly toward the road.

"God! Run!"

The two officers frantically opened their car doors to escape, but it was already too late.

The two officers, along with Jonas, hadn't gotten far when the building crashed down with a thunderous roar, trapping all three beneath it.

The building collapse killed fifty to sixty people, and over a hundred inside the building perished—this was a major accident.

Moreover, it wasn't just a simple traffic accident because many people had heard a loud explosion before the building collapsed.

Once reported, the situation threw the parliament into chaos.

Some were sent to handle the traffic accident, some to rescue the injured, and others to clear the roads.

Others were investigating the cause of the building's collapse, with more engaged in responding to incessant inquiries from the island.

Among those who perished in the collapsed building was a parliament member from the Foot Basin Chicken, which led them to believe it was a premeditated, organized terrorist attack targeting their official.

They demanded the multi-national parliament expedite the investigation to provide justice for their fallen parliament member.

Given the member's death, the two officers' demise seemed insignificant.

The parliament immediately became busy, starting an investigation into the member's social connections, looking for any enemies.

The situation grew overwhelming and couldn't be resolved quickly.

By the following morning, James, having been busy all night, received a report and remembered that among the casualties were the two officers sent out to find Jonas.

At that moment, a chilling suspicion ran through James.

Could this incident not have been aimed at the parliament member?

If that's the case, it's clear Ye Fan and his team are buying time, silencing witnesses.

Although unaware of why they're buying time, he's already filled with a foreboding feeling.

James deeply suspected Chen Bufan to be Ye Fan.

Despite exhaustion, he urgently gave orders.

"Quick! Inform the people in Zijing Country to check Jonas's work logs. Anyone who introduced people to the island should have a record. Investigate Chen Bufan's entry log!"
