Chapter 232: Foreign Lady

"What else can be done? Everyone's been killed; those agents have surely already returned to report. Even if we investigate further, we won't find any results." Fujiwara Chinta thought for a moment and then said.

"Tell Kagesa, think of another way to contact the Wang fellow, properly soothe his emotions, tell him not to worry, even if something happens, the locust army will also think of a way to rescue him!" Fujiwara Chinta thought for a moment and then said.

"Also Imai, let him continue spreading the peace theory, divert the National Government's attention, and strive to gain support from the peace faction within the National Government!" Fujiwara Chinta thought for a moment and then said.

"Hai!" Takayanagi Hideyoshi bowed deeply.

"I think the National Government already knows; we're preparing to turn him, maybe they'll conduct an internal investigation against him." Fujiwara Chinta thought for a moment and then said.

For such matters, Fujiwara Chinta is thoroughly familiar.

Not long after the purge operation inside the Tsuchihara Agency ended, this old devil took the opportunity to clean up the remnants of Amemiya Kazuto.

"Hmm..." Fujiwara Chinta pondered for a moment, his eyes lit up, he clenched his fist and said again.

"It's best to carry out a few small assassination operations to scare him, applying psychological pressure." Fujiwara Chinta thought for a moment and then said.

"Make him think the National Government begins to suspect him, is trying to deal with him, forcing him to quickly bring his people to defect to us." Fujiwara Chinta thought for a moment and then said.

"Then have our people rescue him; only then will he trust us more." Fujiwara Chinta thought for a moment and then said.

"Your Excellency, Major!" Takayanagi Hideyoshi bowed deeply.

"What's the death of two minor characters? As long as the protagonist doesn't die, no one can stop this from happening!" Fujiwara Chinta said harshly.

"Hai!" Takayanagi Hideyoshi said, standing upright.

Fujiwara Chinta didn't say more, took the documents, and prepared to report this to Tsuchihara Jiro.

Tsuchihara Jiro listened to the report and also agreed with Fujiwara Chinta's suggestion.

……

In the days after receiving Chen Yongren's intelligence, the Military Statistics Bureau immediately began screening the information.

But things did not go as they wished.

When the Military Statistics Bureau personnel came to the door with the confession statements of Wu and Wang, the person surnamed Wang directly denied the matter, saying that the Military Statistics Bureau had extracted the confession by torture and deliberately framed him.

He even took the opportunity to denounce the Military Statistics Bureau's overwhelming power, lawless and tyrannical.

If you doubt my loyalty, you may resign from all positions and apologize, and no longer concern yourself with any affairs of the National Government.

When this news came out, the National Government was in an uproar; a group of people successively submitted resignation letters, vowing to share weal and woe with Mr. Wang.

Finally, the person surnamed Wang also publicly claimed that he had suffered several assassination attempts, and moreover, in public settings, intentionally or unintentionally hinted that the assassination operation was carried out by the Military Statistics Bureau.

If it weren't for Imai's rescue, I might have already lost my life.

In this matter, the Military Statistics Bureau ended up embarrassed, and the case could only be left unresolved.

Imai Takeo also took the opportunity to widely promote the peace theory, holding multiple discussions internally, causing many to believe his nonsense.

……

These days, Chen Yongren took some time, disguised himself, and briefly met with the new team leaders.

During that period, he also didn't forget to visit the Fujiwara family and visit Fujiwara Yūko.

This little girl, suffering from abdominal pain, was recuperating at home, which inadvertently gave Chen Yongren a legitimate reason to visit her home; their feelings grew stronger and stronger.

Especially at the time when Fujiwara Chinta gets off work, his figure is never seen.

Chen Yongren found out through indirect inquiry that he had been staying inside the agency recently, and Fujiwara Rina had been accompanying Takayanagi Mitsuko all along.

Seeing Chen Yongren still come to see him despite his busy schedule, Fujiwara Yūko became increasingly reliant on him.

Although the spring has not yet been developed, Chen Yongren's grace of a drop of water, she can still repay with a gushing spring.

Fujiwara Yūko repeatedly hinted to Chen Yongren that her condition had improved greatly, and she could freely pick.

But Chen Yongren still seriously said, "First heal your body, then talk."

"Chen Sang, you're really great; I knew choosing you was right." Fujiwara Yūko sat on the bed, tightly embracing Chen Yongren.

She could never have imagined that Chen Yongren's reason for not wanting to be intimate with her was simply a worry that, halfway through tilling, someone might suddenly come to her home.

That would be bad for anyone.

"As your boyfriend, I naturally need to consider your health." Chen Yongren gently rubbed Fujiwara Yūko's head: "I still have things to do; I'll go first, you rest well at home."

"Mm!" Fujiwara Yūko nodded slightly, wiped her mouth, and reluctantly bade farewell to Chen Yongren.

After leaving Fujiwara Yūko's house, Chen Yongren found a small alley, disguised himself, and headed to the International Settlement.

Calculating, Chen Yongren hadn't gone to the concession for some days; each day he merely read the newspaper to learn what was happening there.

Recently, the concession was indeed extraordinarily lively, with various gangs fighting over turf, and even someone brought out a submachine gun and fired it in the street.

Those old fogies at the Municipal Council were also anxious to the point of smoking.

Chen Yongren was strolling down the street.

Suddenly, he heard some movement behind him.

Turning around, he saw a convertible small car wobbling along the road.

On the road, chickens and dogs were scattering; pedestrians worried about being hit, all hurriedly avoiding.

Behind the car were several Western-dressed foreigners, desperately chasing, shouting at the top of their lungs to brake and stop.

The next moment.

The car then lurched uncontrollably toward Chen Yongren.

"Holy shit!"

Chen Yongren instinctively dodged to the side.

A piercing "screech" sounded, and the car happened to stop right beside Chen Yongren.

Seeing a woman in Western dress, panicking, sitting in the car, Chen Yongren immediately cursed in English: "You idiot, what are you doing? Can't you drive?"

With bullets flying everywhere, if he were injured by the car, where could he go to reason?

While scolding her, Chen Yongren instinctively activated his scan eye.

A string of data appeared before Chen Yongren's eyes.

Huh?

Looking at the data of the foreign girl before him.

Chen Yongren blinked slightly.

Chen Yongren's mind slowly raised a question mark.

"Sorry, sir, I didn't mean to bump into you. Can you drive? They want to kidnap me, save me!"

The foreign girl crossed her arms over her chest, anxiously glanced behind her at the approaching crowd, then looked at Chen Yongren again.

"Please help me!"
