Chapter 12: Returning to Mobilize Troops

~7 min read 1,357 words

At the same time Chen Yongren confirmed the mole's identity.

Shen Mingchen was busy with the matter of capturing Red Butterfly.

Red Butterfly is one of the spy teams planted by Japan in Gold Mound, whose main task is to gather important top-secret information inside the headquarters.

Since a few months ago, after the Military Intelligence Bureau killed three Japanese spies in an operation, Red Butterfly's radio fell silent.

Shen Mingchen thought Red Butterfly had withdrawn from Gold Mound and could no longer be caught.

Unexpectedly, just as he was about to give up capturing Red Butterfly, information about Red Butterfly appeared before him again.

"Damn it, last time Red Butterfly slipped from our hands; this time, no matter what, we must catch him!" Shen Mingchen said to Lin Dayou.

In the section chief's office, only Lin Dayou was present.

The news of Red Butterfly's reappearance was first known by Lin Dayou, which sufficiently proves Shen Mingchen's high regard for Lin Dayou.

"Section Chief, I understand what you say, but we also need to know where Red Butterfly is; now we don't even know whether he is male or female, where should we go to catch him?" Lin Dayou spread his hands helplessly.

"I don't want to hear complaints; I only look at results!" Shen Mingchen kept tapping the table: "The Intelligence Section personnel are investigating; as soon as there are clues, we will launch action immediately!"

"Red Butterfly's reappearance surely means nothing good." Lin Dayou pondered a moment: "Section Chief, could it be that they are plotting something again?"

"This is exactly what I worry about most!" Shen Mingchen, face full of worry: "Last time they assassinated an important official of the Ministry of Internal Affairs; the old man was so angry he almost wanted to eat someone…"

He was about to continue speaking when a phone ring rang.

Shen Mingchen reached out to pick up the phone; hearing the urgent voice on the other end, his face grew increasingly grim.

"What the hell are you saying?"

"I already told you to pay attention!"

Shen Mingchen loudly cursed "Fuck your grandmother", then slammed the phone down.

"Section Chief, what happened again?" Lin Dayou's heart tightened.

"Something went wrong; the Criminal Investigation Section was negligent, Watanabe Shun broke free of his ropes and swallowed a nail into his stomach." Shen Mingchen's forehead veins bulged with anger.

"Those idiots in the Criminal Investigation Section, at this time they still want to drag us down as a scapegoat!"

"A bunch of ill-intentioned things!"

"Section Chief, they clearly want to dump this mess on us; what should we do now?" Lin Dayou urged.

"What else can we do? First go see; after all, the person is one we captured, interrogating him is my order—we can't shirk this black pot." Shen Mingchen said unhappily.

"However, those who should be interrogated have mostly been interrogated; there shouldn't be any trouble."

"Get ready, let's go to the Criminal Investigation Section right away!"

"Yes!" Lin Dayou stood at attention.

……

At this moment.

Chen Yongren still didn't know that Watanabe Shun, whom they captured yesterday, had met with an accident.

The landlady, Mrs. Hu, turned out to be a Japanese spy, Kaede Renko, and was colluding with Secretary Huang of the Executive Yuan.

Japanese spies were eyeing hungrily, possibly to act at any moment; Chen Yongren also didn't feel like going home, so he simply had Xiangzi take him back to the Second Bureau, to report this first.

On the way, Chen Yongren also prepared some remarks.

"Grandpa… actually you…"

After learning that Chen Yongren works at the Military Intelligence Bureau, Xiangzi's voice also trembled a little.

The Military Intelligence Bureau is ruthless and vicious.

From high officials down to commoners, everyone knows how ruthless this lot is.

Xiangzi originally thought Chen Yongren was just an armed officer; he never imagined he was actually a member of the Military Intelligence Bureau.

This is a role even more ruthless than an officer; no wonder the boss of Celebration Abundant Building, upon seeing them, would be terrified.

"Remember what you should remember, forget what you should forget." Chen Yongren then took out five notes, stuffed them into Xiangzi's chest pocket, patted his shoulder, and spoke amicably.

Speaking, Chen Yongren unintentionally glanced at the pair of brand-new tiger ornaments on the handlebar, and smiled.

"The tiger ornaments on the handlebar are nice, but a bit small; I'll buy a bigger one for my little nephew to play with, so others see it and think we can't afford to play."

"Grandpa…" Upon hearing this, Xiangzi almost cried in fright.

But Chen Yongren paid him no heed, walking into the Military Intelligence Bureau without looking back.

He had already told him his identity; as for whether Xiangzi has the gall to keep clinging to a big thigh, that's his problem.

In short.

Gold Mound is a big city, never lacking clever people.

If he is really too clever, letting Gold Mound have one fewer clever person is no problem.

……

At this moment.

Inside a certain guest room of Rich Prosperity Hotel.

Huang Baiseng's fight has ended; now he lies on the bed, panting heavily.

"The Imperial Army is very satisfied with your intelligence."

"Mrs. Hu, while dressing, said: 'Once the assassination operation succeeds, the Imperial Army will certainly not shortchange you.'"

Huang Baiseng greedily said: "I want nothing else, only you."

"With just your tiny bit, following you will surely starve to death; Mrs. Hu felt contempt, the corner of her mouth twitched slightly, and said: 'Of course no problem; as long as the operation succeeds, you will be a meritorious subject of the Imperial Army.'"

"At that time I will belong only to you; I can ask my superiors to give you a Japanese identity, completely clearing your name, then we can marry and have children, leaving this turmoil behind."

"Currently Huang Baiseng still has use value; coaxing him well won't lose a piece of flesh, and Mrs. Hu also knows his inner thoughts, begins to paint big promises."

Upon hearing that.

Huang Baiseng's heart leapt with joy, his face beaming with smiles, he patted his chest and promised: "Dear, rest assured, these days the Executive Yuan is busy; the least lacking is information!"

He paused, then Huang Baisheng said again: "Right, I heard the old man is considering the meeting venue; once it's decided, I'll notify you right away."

After this mission is completed, we'll go to Riben together; relying on my savings, I guarantee we can buy a large villa in Riben.

……

Chen Yongren had just entered the Operations Section office when he noticed the atmosphere inside was a bit heavy, as if something major had happened.

What surprised Chen Yongren most was that everyone in the section was present, all at their posts.

Just then, Zhang Haifeng quickly walked up to Chen Yongren and said, "A Ren, you've finally arrived; the brothers are all here, only you are missing."

"Only me?" Chen Yongren wondered.

Zhang Haifeng said: "You don't know yet? There's an urgent operation in the section; all leave has been cancelled, and the Operations Section must have all staff on duty."

"We sent someone to your house to look for you, but you weren't there."

"The section chief said we had time off, so I just wandered around the city casually," Chen Yongren muttered offhandedly, glancing at Lin Dayou's office.

His office door was wide open, but there was no sign of him.

"Where is the team leader?" Chen Yongren asked casually.

"Forget it." Zhang Haifeng said helplessly: "It seems those few Japanese spies we caught yesterday ran into trouble, and Shen Ke and Team Leader Lin have gone to the Interrogation Section."

"The Interrogation Section?" Chen Yongren frowned slightly: "I'll go to the Interrogation Section."

Having said that, Chen Yongren turned and hurried to the Interrogation Section.

Although Chen Yongren carried the Operations Section's credentials, the Interrogation Section's guard still made a phone call, having Lin Dayou come out to meet him.

"What the hell urgent business do you have, insisting on coming here to report?" Lin Dayou looked irritated.
