Chapter 370: Spy Embedded in the Emergency Squad!

~5 min read 850 words

The woman glanced at the sticky note, slightly surprised, but still stuck it to the file when filing the applicant's records.

Su Yang didn't mind if someone liked women.

When Su Yang was in the Seventh Squad, Xu Jiutian and the rest of those men all had this preference.

But today was the important emergency squad assessment, and this person seemed to be treating it like a joke.

Someone like this, even if exceptionally strong, Su Yang didn't want.

The qualification review continued, and Su Yang suddenly became alert.

He suddenly realized he could still do something.

For every applicant, he paid slight attention to the scent on their person.

But as long as the problem wasn't serious, Su Yang never attached labels to anyone's file.

By afternoon, when Su Yang felt drowsy, he suddenly caught a whiff of human blood.

He looked at the Gold-rank Beast Tamer standing across from him for qualification review; the man seemed to have no obvious issues.

Su Yang asked: "Did you get injured?"

"No!"

Su Yang asked again: "Did you fight earlier?"

The man fell silent.

"Tell the truth!" Su Yang straightened up. "In Wucheng, there's nothing we can't find out!"

The Gold-rank Beast Tamer lowered his head.

The review paused temporarily.

Other Beast Tamers waiting for review all stared at the man Su Yang had caught.

"The blood smell on you—must be from this morning."

The Gold-rank Beast Tamer spoke nervously: "On the way, someone bumped into me…"

"Then you beat them up?"

"I acted impulsively!"

"Hmm."

Su Yang nodded and casually wrote another evaluation.

At this moment, many Beast Tamers coming for review finally noticed Su Yang.

They all knew the man who had fought would likely be immediately rejected.

The review continued, and soon Su Yang spotted a female Beast Tamer with delicate features in the crowd.

The woman was about twenty-seven or twenty-eight, her skin slightly yellowish, her frame petite.

She stood about one meter sixty tall, with long hair and a faint smile on her face—easily likable.

The emergency squad's recruitment didn't care whether the applicant was male or female.

The problem was this woman was disguised!

Su Yang's Storm Eagle had told him earlier.

Soon it was her turn for re-review; to Su Yang's surprise, she had passed straight through despite evading the eyes of two Star-rank Beast Tamers.

"Thank you!"

After passing re-review, the disguised female Beast Tamer smiled at Su Yang and the others.

She clearly had great confidence in her disguise!

Su Yang glanced at her file.

Her name was "Chen Li."

He noted it down.

Once you're in, don't come out!

In one day, rushed and hurried, all 565 Beast Tamers were reviewed.

Thirteen people had been labeled by Su Yang.

Two Star-rank Beast Tamers discovered one person had altered their appearance; Su Yang found one case.

When the two Star-rank Beast Tamers learned about Chen Li, they both frowned.

One Star-rank Beast Tamer asked: "Commander Su, are you certain?"

If true, it was their own failure.

Su Yang said firmly: "Absolutely certain—my Storm Eagle has excellent eyesight!"

"Then report it together! Include that we failed to detect Chen Li's disguise—maybe her strength isn't simple!" said the other Star-rank Beast Tamer solemnly. "See what Commander Yao's stance is: arrest her now, or keep her under observation."

"Then let's do it that way."

Su Yang looked curiously at the two and asked: "Are you two from the Special Operations Group?"

The two Star-rank Beast Tamers nodded with smiles.

"We've heard of you—Commander Yao speaks highly of you. Maybe we'll work together someday!"

"Definitely."

After the re-review was complete, Su Yang's work was done.

The selection of emergency squad members would now be handled by other captains.

Su Yang suspected there might still be some hidden fish among those who passed the qualification review.

But identifying spies and such was surely the emergency squad's own method—no need for him to care.

Three days later, the new recruit recruitment ended.

Before Su Yang could receive his sixty new subordinates, Ma Wenhong found him.

"Su Yang, are you certain that Chen Li is suspicious?"

"What's wrong?"

Ma Wenhong took a deep breath and said, "After receiving your intelligence, Captain Yao went to see her in person—her disguise left no trace."

Su Yang fell silent.

He hadn't expected Chen Li's disguise to be this powerful.

Even a King-tier Beast Tamer couldn't see through it!

Su Yang asked softly, "What about hypnosis?"

"We tried it—no issues."

"Then it's getting interesting!"

"Indeed very interesting!" Ma Wenhong agreed with Su Yang. "What do you think we should do?"

Ma Wenhong's question left Su Yang speechless.

"Kill her directly?"

"That would be a waste—we still don't know her intentions or the force behind her. If we kill her rashly, all leads vanish," Ma Wenhong shook his head. "Besides, a spy who's been discovered is no longer as dangerous. We might even follow the trail to her organization and use her!"

"Vice Captain, your insight is brilliant!"

"Don't flatter me!" Ma Wenhong smiled. "Su Yang, do you know why I called you here?"
