Chapter 141: Chen Sang, Trustworthy

~7 min read 1,319 words

Fujiwara Chikata shook his head inwardly, indicating denial.

Even the most elite agent in the agency could not possibly finish all this in such a short time.

This must have been done by someone else.

The Duke Fa Restaurant is indeed relatively famous in Songhu; even if I sit in the office every day, I have still heard of it somewhat.

For a young person like Chen Yongren, wanting to bring his daughter to try it out for the sake of fashion is quite understandable.

Yuko never lies.

From her expression, there was nothing wrong to be seen.

Even if we concede, if she really wanted to hide something, why would she mention that Chen Yongren disappeared midway?

It would be easy to help conceal it.

That said.

But Fujiwara Chikata thought it over and still decided.

Tomorrow I will send someone to the Duke Fa Restaurant to question and find out whether Yuko is lying.

Upon hearing Yuko's words, Fujiwara Rina also dispelled her inner doubts and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

Hopefully this has nothing to do with Chen Sang.

I really deserve to die for even suspecting Chen Sang.

Next time we meet, I will definitely make it up to Chen Sang properly.

After making up her mind, Fujiwara Rina looked at Fujiwara Chikata, feigned anger, and said, "All right, Chikata, you don't come home after work and still dare to wander around; no wonder you don't want to eat my food!"

Oh no!

Upon hearing this, Fujiwara Chikata's body jerked.

This is clearly just a casual lie made up to pump Yuko for information.

I miscalculated.

Fujiwara Chikata felt a headache.

"Rina, no, this is... Fujiwara Chikata wanted to explain."

Fujiwara Rina let out a light hum, lifted her head and left the kitchen; just as she reached the doorway, she turned back and said to Fujiwara Chikata, "Come, follow me back to the room!"

Upon hearing those words, Fujiwara Chikata's body jerked.

Here it comes again.

Because Fujiwara Rina always reacts this way whenever she catches him lying, this old ghost not only had no suspicion, but instead recalled some terrifying memories.

Upon reaching middle age, out of necessity, he resorts to all kinds of food and medicinal supplements.

Watching her parents' departing backs, Yuko wore a smile.

If I were to marry Chen Sang, would my future days be this happy?

Yuko continued preparing the ingredients for the copper gong bake, a smile unavoidably spreading at the corners of her mouth as she hummed a little tune and kneaded the dough.

A shadow hovered over the basin, swaying back and forth like a swing.

…

Three Japanese warships were blown up; because the incident caused too great a commotion, they could not cover it up even if they wanted to.

Not long after the incident, the various-country spies lurking in Songhu successively received news that the Japanese warships had been attacked.

Subsequently, it caused a major earthquake in the intelligence community.

They all wondered which faction had the audacity to dare blow up the Japanese people's warships.

Some do-gooder agents even started placing bets.

Was it the Red Party, the Military Intelligence Bureau, or the Party Affairs Bureau that did it?

When Huang Qifa received this news, he was also dumbfounded.

When Chen Yongren arrived at the police station and saw him, Huang Qifa was sitting in a chair, dazed.

"No wonder there was such a huge commotion yesterday; when I came, the Japanese devils on the street were acting as if their parents had died."

"Turns out their warship was blown up; just thinking about it feels satisfying."

"This definitely wasn't done by us; could it be agents of the Military Intelligence Bureau or the Party Affairs Bureau?"

"When did their abilities become this strong?"

Of course, because I'm here listening to Huang Qifa's inner thoughts, Chen Yongren silently added a sentence in his heart.

Just as he was thinking, the telephone on the table rang with a ding-ling-ling.

The call was connected.

The caller was none other than Fujiwara Chikata.

"Director Fujiwara!" Chen Yongren deliberately raised his volume to draw Huang Qifa's attention.

As expected.

Huang Qifa immediately perked up, pretended to chat casually, and found a police officer near Chen Yongren's position to make small talk with.

"Yes, I understand; I'm heading over now." Chen Yongren straightened up, stood at attention, and quickly left the police station.

Watching Chen Yongren's departing back, Huang Qifa fell into thought.

Could it be that he has another mission?

We must find out what the Japanese want him to do!

Chen Yongren left the police station and immediately went to the Songhu Special Agency, where he met Fujiwara Chikata.

This morning he had someone find the waiter at the Duke Fa Restaurant.

Because of Chen Yongren's special way of ordering, coupled with the handsome man and beautiful woman, the waiter had a deep memory of them.

It can be confirmed that Chen Yongren indeed went to the restroom, stayed there for several minutes, and also inquired with the street-side vendors, but found no sign of Chen Yongren having left the restaurant.

With the suspicion of bombing the warship cleared, Fujiwara Konta could naturally trust Chen Yongren more.

"Major His Excellency!" Chen Yongren straightened up.

His thoughts were mostly about the warship, and the present situation was also that he wanted to get ahead of Amamiya Kazuto and catch the person who bombed the warship.

Fujiwara Konta also didn't waste words; he briefly said what happened yesterday, then added.

"Amamiya Kazuto already believes you've become an outer member of the Special Higher Police; I think next he will surely try to get through you to obtain our investigation progress…"

Chen Yongren understood at once: "Yes, Major His Excellency, I, your subordinate, understand; I will find a way to deliver their investigation report to you!"

"That's right, Chen Sang, you're really smart; Amamiya Kazuto wanting to investigate before us who bombed the warship is simply a dream." Fujiwara Konta said coldly.

"Compared to Major His Excellency, my little cleverness amounts to nothing." Chen Yongren hurriedly said: "Compared to Major His Excellency, Amamiya Kazuto is even less worth mentioning."

"It's only a matter of time before he is driven out of Songhu by you."

Fujiwara Konta waved his hand slightly: "Putting on an act requires the full show; when you go back, you will take the police constables and screen Songhu for suspicious individuals."

"We must not let any suspicious person slip through!"

After saying a few more pleasantries, Fujiwara Konta sent Chen Yongren away.

Chen Yongren also did not return to the police constabulary right away; instead, he disguised himself, preparing to go to Han Chen's residence to gather information, hoping to find some useful intelligence.

Unexpectedly, he did indeed make an unexpected discovery.

Not long after Chen Yongren left the Special Agency, he saw Han Chen change his clothes and sneakily walk toward the Special Agency.

But under Chen Yongren's X‑ray vision, all of Han Chen's disguises were futile.

The evidence is right here, isn't it?

Chen Yongren hesitated not, immediately taking a camera from the system warehouse and capturing a photo of Han Chen entering the Special Agency.

He just needed to go home and develop all the photos.

Tonight he happened to be meeting Chen Dian for a trade, so he could conveniently tell Huang Qifa about this through him.

He changed back into his constable uniform and returned to the police constabulary.

Before his butt even touched the seat, Chen Yongren saw Huang Qifa come over: "Ren Ge, what good business does the Locust Army have for you?"

"What good business." Chen Yongren replied angrily: "They had us go out as laborers, but yesterday the Locust Army's ship wasn't bombed."

"The Locust Army has us screen the city for suspicious individuals!"

"Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and go!"
