Chapter 235: Chief Consultant

After getting the money, Chen Yongren pretended to leave, but actually sneaked back to the warehouse entrance.

While the Japanese were busy moving the opium, he hid in advance under the truck bed, and later followed the convoy to the Japanese secret warehouse.

Remembering the warehouse location, Chen Yongren seized the opportunity to leave, hurried to the bank, cashed the check, and transferred the money into a secret account.

Afterwards he returned to the Japanese warehouse.

After they all left, Chen Yongren seized the opportunity, used the Shrinking Bone Skill, slipped into the warehouse through the opened ventilation window, directly stored all the opium in the system warehouse, and took out that batch of fake opium.

Within just a few hours, this batch of goods made a round trip and ended up back in Chen Yongren's hands.

After Chen Yongren slipped out of the warehouse, he waited a few more hours, then disguised himself as Takayanagi Shuichi and secretly returned to the warehouse once.

He found a way to lure the two guards at the gate away, making them disappear for half an hour.

By wearing Takayanagi Shuichi's face to do this, he could make the matter airtight, leaving no room for rebuttal.

Early the next morning.

When Fujiwara Kinta brought Tsuchihara Ji to the warehouse entrance,

"Fujiwara-kun, you've been acting mysterious since this morning—what exactly did you discover?" Tsuchihara Ji asked curiously.

"Opium, General His Excellency, Takayanagi-kun has obtained a batch of opium!" Fujiwara Kinta put on a smile and immediately ordered the guards to open the warehouse.

The warehouse door opened.

Fujiwara Kinta immediately brought Tsuchihara Ji inside and opened a crate.

Tsuchihara Ji casually picked one up, held it under his nose to sniff, and snapped, "You idiot, you've been had—this isn't opium at all, it's clearly dog-skin plaster!"

"What?" Fujiwara Kinta's face changed.

"Impossible—we inspected the shipment before it arrived and found nothing wrong." Fujiwara Kinta looked at the guards: "Who came to the warehouse yesterday?"

"Director Takayanagi came once!" one of the Japanese honestly said: "He said someone was looking for us, we left for half an hour, and when we returned, he was gone."

"What?" Fujiwara Kinta blinked in surprise.

"I need an explanation!" Tsuchihara Ji said in an unfriendly tone.

Fujiwara Kinta hesitated not, immediately taking a squad of military police.

After thinking, he also notified Chen Yongren to bring Team Nine, and the group mightily headed to Takayanagi Shuichi's residence.

On the way.

Zhang Haifeng, Huang Qifa, and Han Chen were bewildered, not understanding why they had to go to Takayanagi Shuichi's house.

Why?

Of course it's to ransack the house!

It just so happened that Takayanagi Shuichi was on vacation; seeing a crowd outside, he still hadn't realized what was happening.

Only when Fujiwara Kinta said the word "search" did he grasp the seriousness of the problem.

Seeing a group suddenly rush into the house, Takayanagi Mitsuko shrank back in fright against the wall.

The pit was dug by Chen Yongren; he quickly found the fake contract, the fake money, and that Takayanagi diary.

"Takayanagi, I need an explanation!" After reading the contract, Fujiwara Kinta angrily threw the fake cash at Takayanagi Shuichi's face.

The contract detailed that if Takayanagi Shuichi could swap the opium for something else, he would receive a reward of ten thousand dollars.

"Major His Excellency, please believe me—this is a setup, this is definitely a setup!"

"Director Fujiwara, I also just found a diary." Chen Yongren timely added the finishing blow.

"A diary?" Fujiwara Kinta sounded doubtful.

"Don't look!" Takayanagi Shuichi's heart sank halfway; he had just lunged forward when Chen Yongren pressed him to the ground.

Upon opening the diary and seeing the first line,

Fujiwara Kinta's face immediately dropped.

"Why was I made a eunuch instead of Director Fujiwara?"

"I've had enough of their mocking glances!"

"Everyone looks down on me."

……

"A bunch of damned bastards, even lowly pigs without military rank dare to mock me."

"I had my men turn them all into eunuchs so they could feel my pain too!"

……

Fujiwara Kinta continued reading, his face growing darker, while Takayanagi Shuichi was drained of strength, collapsed limp on the ground, at a loss.

Now it's not just about him embezzling; this guy's psychology is completely twisted.

"Take him back!" Fujiwara Kinta said coldly.

The group came quickly and left just as quickly.

"Chen Sang, what's going on?" Takayanagi Mitsuko rushed forward and grabbed Chen Yongren.

"Not dead." Chen Yongren whispered: "Perhaps this is also good for you."

Having said that, he left a bewildered Takayanagi Mitsuko to follow the main force.

The opium couldn't be found; the only person who had been to the warehouse was Takayanagi Shuichi, and this black pot was firmly placed on his head.

Chen Yongren had nothing to do with it, and nobody suspected him at all.

Three days later, Takayanagi Shuichi died in prison.

Officially it was claimed as suicide.

Indeed it was.

Rather, under Chen Yongren's control, he stabbed his own throat with a pair of chopsticks.

With his death, everyone thought he committed suicide out of fear of punishment.

The opium loss case directly turned into a cold case.

No one knows where the opium went.

Except Chen Yongren.

After killing Gao Liu Xiuji, Chen Yongren harvested 300 Chicago Typewriters, 300,000 rounds of ammunition, 200 kg tnt.

Under Teng Yuan Linai's persuasion, Gao Liu Meijinzi was only then spared punishment.

The wheel of history will not stop moving for such trivial matters, nor will it change course because of a single person.

Although Chen Yongren kept working hard, what he worried about most still happened.

The person surnamed Wang left Chongqing and issued a third statement, thus ruining his reputation.

Because of his defection, it caused great internal turmoil, taking away a large number of elites and troops from the party.

Initially, the Military Statistics Bureau's screening of the person surnamed Wang was not mistaken; it truly discovered that he might have a problem.

But the people have already fled; even if we wanted to make amends, it's too late.

On the other hand, Li Qun also successfully turned Ding Mo.

Japan rounded up those traitorous spies, taking the original Ninth Group members as the core, and established a new spy agency at No. 76 Jisi Fei Er Road in the area where road construction crossed the boundary in the International Settlement of West Shanghai.

Because the name is too long, more people are willing to call him 76.

Its main duty is to oversee all intelligence and security organs of the Wang puppet government, coordinating the activities of various intelligence and security agencies.

Teng Yuan Jintai's office.

"Chen Sang, I believe you've heard about the establishment of 76." Teng Yuan Jintai smiled and looked at Chen Yongren; "Do you know why I didn't assign you those duties?"

"Director Teng Yuan, since you've arranged it this way, there must be your reasoning; I, your subordinate, only need to strictly follow your orders." Chen Yongren bowed slightly.

Joke.

Before entering the office, Chen Yongren already knew what position this old devil had arranged for him; compared to ordinary positions, it paled in comparison to the position he was about to take up.

"Good, Chen Sang, I really like this spirit of yours, full of vigor." Teng Yuan Jintai shifted his tone and immediately said.

"These guys, after all, just defected over; they haven't been with us as long as you and I have. To avoid having National Government or Red Party spies inside, I need you to monitor them."

"Hai!" Chen Yongren bowed slightly.

Teng Yuan Jintai also said: "From now on, you shall act as Chief Military Advisor and take charge of 76!"
