The last part of the message had been encrypted three times, the beginning mentioned a cipher code.
Seeing this part, Zheng Jiangming seemed to think of something and took an unopened envelope from his locked briefcase.
Inside was a one-time pad.
Zheng Jiangming appeared very speechless because he had always considered it a "brilliant stratagem," never expecting it to be a cipher exclusively used by the Sixth Bureau.
Fortunately, there wasn't much content in the thrice-encrypted section.
After decoding it, Zheng Jiangming glanced over the message and then handed it to Bai Zhizhan.
It was an operational command issued to the Fleet Commander.
Proceed at full speed to the designated sea area and to a set of coordinates used in Navy mapping.
While Zheng Jiangming went to consult the sea charts, Bai Zhizhan had already taken his seat.
