Jared immediately contacted Nathan, "Go to Clearwater, something has happened to Hayden."


    Nathan was in the midst of routine training at the X Bureau when he received Jared''s call. He paused, visibly stunned, "Hayden checked in remotely this morning and even responded to my routine roll call on the public screen ten minutes ago. It''s impossible that something has happened to him."


    The X Bureau, for ease of management, conducted routine roll calls through the public screen, except for special undercover assignments like Linden''s. The timing was irregr, but it ensured that everyone was ounted for. Jared''s brow furrowed slightly.


    It had been ten minutes since Tina made the first call.


    If Hayden was responding to the roll call at that time, he couldn''t have missed Tina''s call!


    What was going on?


    Tina also sensed that something was amiss, a situation unprecedented for Hayden.


    At that moment, Velma, who hadn''t been in touch for a long time, called Tina.


    "Something terrible has happened to Pa," Velma said anxiously.


    "What happened?" Tina asked with a stern face.


    Hayden had been assigned to infiltrate the White family. If Pa was also in trouble, there had to be a connection between the two.


    Velma swallowed hard, "Pa has been imprisoned by her family. They won''t let her contact anyone. If she hadn''t found an old phone to reach me, I wouldn''t have known anything was wrong." Pa imprisoned?


    Tina frowned, "Why would the White family imprison Pa? What happened?"


    "Because of that bastard she''s secretly in love with-Hayden," Velma exined. "Hayden has stolen biochemical weapon secrets from the White family and got caught. Now, he''s being held in a military prison in Clearwater, awaiting sentencing!" "What?" Tina gripped Jared''s wrist, who then promptly pulled the car over to the side of the road, still connected to Nathan via phone.


    Tina switched to speakerphone so Jared and Nathan could hear.


    "How could Hayden steal the White family''s biochemical weapon secrets?" Tina demanded.

    Velma stamped her foot in frustration, "I don''t know, and neither does Pa. She doesn''t believe Hayden would do such a thing. She wants to testify for Hayden in court, which is why she was imprisoned. She called me to ask for your help." "Pa said the biochemical weapons researched by the White family are a government secret. If Hayden doesn''t exin himself, he could face the death penalty. Moreover, this time, people from the hidden families are directly involved, and even Hayden''s superior can''t intervene."


    A chill appeared on Jared''s stern face, clearly indicating his reluctance to be sidelined.


    "How long has Hayden been captured?" Jared asked.


    Velma hesitated, then realized, "Mr. Farrell, Hayden has been imprisoned for nearly half a month now. Pa is beside herself with worry."


    The chill on Jared''s face deepened, "Nathan, how has Hayden''s check-in been over this half month?"


    "Timely and without any discrepancies. He''s always responsive," Nathan''s voice cooled as well.


    From the other end came Jason''s voice, "Mr. Farrell, something is wrong."Còntens bel0ngs to N?(v)elDr/a/ma.Org


    "Miss Reed, for this half month, Husky has also been talking daily in our group, not only that but Pa has been responding too, though she has been less talkative than usual. Thest time she spoke was three days ago," Courtney added.

    The small group she mentioned was originally established by Tina to research a new type of bomb. Once the bomb detector was sessfully developed, the group turned into a chat group. Tina and Jared seldom checked the group; usually, only Courtney and Nathan interacted with Hayden.


    Over the past half month, Hayden had been checking in regrly, and the group had been chatting. This indicated that someone was controlling all of Hayden''s means ofmunication with the outside world! Ayer of frost formed on Tina''s face.


    "Velma, tell Pa not to worry. I''ll figure out a way to rescue Hayden first. He will be alright," Tina said, her eyes darkening with a hint of menace. Those who dared to mess with her were courting death! Only she had the right to bully her brother! Velma nodded repeatedly, "Okay, I don''t get to contact Pa often, but I''ll tell her. Tina, Mr. Farrell, you must help them." Tina acknowledged with a ''good'' and then hung up the phone.


    Jared also instructed, "Just continue to send messages to Hayden as usual, use the public channel."


    "Understood," Nathan replied, hanging up the phone. Jared put away his phone. "Tina, track Hayden''s public channel and phone, check the locations." Tina nodded and immediately turned on her portableputer to locate all of Hayden''smunication devices. Secondster, Tina''s expression darkened. "It''s at the X Bureau headquarters in Ashbury!" Tina closed herputer. "It''s Linden again."


    Then, Tina called Jayden, "Notify everyone in the Mountain Veil Order, the target is Clearwater Military Prison, break him out!" Tina was truly furious. If Hayden had reallymitted an offense, she would personally have sent him there, not the X Bureau! But now that he had been set up and was about to be judged immediately, she couldn''t tolerate it! Jared held Tina back, "Tina, give me some time, we can''t break into the prison just yet." The full details of the situation were still unclear, and if Tina really attempted a prison break, the consequences would be unimaginable.


    Tina stared at Jared, her eyes filled with anger, "Hayden''s trial is tomorrow, I don''t have time!"


    "I know, if I haven''t figured out what''s going on by midnight tonight, then you can make your move, Tina. But think it through-if we really break him out, Hayden will never be able to return to the X Bureau." Jared tightly grasped Tina''s hand. He understood her urgency. Hayden had grown up with him as a close brother andter as arade-in-arms facing life and death.


    Now that Hayden was in trouble, Jared was anxious too. But Jared knew well that Hayden''s lifelong goal was to retire from the X Bureau, aiming to earn more medals of honor than anyone else. How could he be foolish enough to steal government secrets? Such an incident was impossible among anyone in the X Bureau. There was only one possibility: this was a mission assigned from above!


    But without clear details, Tina must not actually attempt the prison break, or the crime would indeed be confirmed, and Hayden''s dreams would never be realized. Tina regained herposure, her face wrapped in ayer of frost, yet she calmed down, calling Jayden, "Stand by at Clearwater Military Prison, wait for mymand!"


    "Yes," Jayden immediately contacted all the brothers in the Mountain Veil Order, heading to Clearwater!
