Chapter 244: Kill Again

He took a quick look.

Hua Lei, this unlucky kid, when buying medicinal ingredients, entered the Red Party's contact point and was mistaken for a liaison and arrested.

Fuck your mother.

Chen Yongren never expected that, while he was fooling the little Japanese here, such an accident would befall him.

"Damn it, seeking death, stop!" Chen Yongren quickly walked to Hua Lei's side.

"Brother!" Hua Lei's face filled with surprise, then she pouted: "They bullied me, you must definitely stand up for me!"

Although Chen Yongren already knew why she was arrested, he still asked for details.

"It's fine, we're in the right, Brother will help you vent your anger." After Hua Lei finished speaking, Chen Yongren gently comforted her.

Hearing the word "Brother," Zeng Qirui, who had intended to scold his subordinates for being too loud, decisively chose to shut up.

Seeing Chen Yongren and that girl's intimate appearance, and the following conversation.

Zeng Qirui's heart instantly turned cold halfway.

How did they end up arresting Advisor Chen's sister?

The more he listened, the more Zeng Qirui felt his scalp tingle; seeing that the arresting person was Wang Fang, he couldn't help but clutch his heart.

Wang Fang is Wang Mu's older brother.

Wang Mu was also personally shot to death by Chen Yongren.

Wang Fang also arrested his sister…

This isn't obviously settling personal scores under the guise of public duty?

Zeng Qirui hurriedly waved at Wang Fang, signaling him to come over, to clarify the situation.

"Any evidence?" Zeng Qirui urgently asked.

If there were evidence, even Chen Yongren himself would be hard-pressed to protect himself; having a Red Party member appear in his family would be a great merit for the 76 Office.

Wang Fang stared, shook his head: "For now there's none, but that doesn't mean she's innocent—if she were innocent, why would she go into a medicine shop?"

"She just entered, and Zheng Qian came—how could that be such a coincidence?"

"How are you just like your brother, always knowing how to cause trouble!" Zeng Qirui helplessly patted his forehead.

Arresting anyone would be bad, but arresting Advisor Chen—while being in the right might still be okay, but now…

He glanced toward Wang Fang, and Chen Yongren discovered that this guy was actually Wang Mu's younger brother.

No wonder they look somewhat alike.

However, looking at today's situation, they seem to want a brotherly reunion.

"I don't care what excuses you have; release my sister now!" Chen Yongren looked at Zeng Qirui and said coldly: "How is it, after killing your people a few days ago, you're not pleased?"

"You can't find trouble with me, so you've turned your attention to my sister?"

"Damn it, do you think I'm easy to bully just because I gave you a bit of face?"

"It's a misunderstanding, Advisor Chen, all a misunderstanding." Zeng Qirui hurriedly smoothed things over: "This brother was eager to earn merit and mistakenly arrested the wrong person."

"I've asked clearly; your sister has nothing to do with this."

"Wang Fang, why are you still standing there? Quickly unlock it, hurry!"

Seeing Chen Yongren's man-eating expression, Zeng Qirui knew things had become serious.

We must, before things get out of hand, make this big matter small, small matter even smaller.

Wang Fang reluctantly unlocked the lock, standing aside with a dark face.

"Another misunderstanding—then there really are many misunderstandings between us." Chen Yongren said coldly: "I ask you, what evidence do you have to prove my sister is related to the Red Party?"

"Entering a medicine shop makes you Red Party—then if I eat Red Party's traditional medicine every day, would I also become an anti-Japanese fighter?"

"You dare arrest people without evidence—who gave you the right?"

With every sentence Chen Yongren spoke, Hua Lei nodded in agreement.

"The 76 Office arrests people without ever needing evidence." Wang Fang remained arrogant.

Upon hearing that, Chen Yongren once again showed a smile.

Seeing this, Zeng Qirui became somewhat anxious.

Last time he laughed like that, he killed seven of his own people.

Gu Yongshan, who had been watching the spectacle, involuntarily stepped back.

Chen Yongren simply and swiftly drew his pistol and fired a shot at Wang Fang's head.

"Bang!"

The bullet directly entered Wang Fang's head; a red-and-white mist of blood instantly burst from the back of his head, splattering onto the car behind him.

The originally black car body instantly became speckled with bits of flesh.

Since you two brothers want to reunite, I, the young master, will definitely give you a free ride.

Hua Lei originally thought Chen Yongren would just give him a lesson to vent anger; she never expected he would be so decisive as to fire.

It was still her first time seeing a killing up close, but she stubbornly endured the discomfort and stood proudly beside Chen Yongren.

The sudden scene frightened everyone around.

Zeng Qirui, who had foreseen this scene beforehand, had his face full of heartache.

You say you can't provoke anyone, but you not only provoked this killer deity.

"Section Chief Zeng, you should know how to write the report, right?" Chen Yongren said calmly.

"I understand, I understand." Zeng Qirui kept nodding his head.

Chen Yongren no longer bothered with Zeng Qirui, put his arm around Hua Lei, and walked out of the 76 Office.

Hua Lei could no longer hold back, ran into an alley, and vomited loudly.

It's always like this the first time.

Later, spitting like that will become a habit.

Two or three minutes later, Hua Lei returned to Chen Yongren's side.

This time, her doubts grew stronger.

Chen Yongren also felt it was time to solve the mystery.

"Hua Lei, when you go home, big brother will give you a big surprise," Chen Yongren said mysteriously.

"A big surprise?" Hua Lei wondered.

The two returned home, and Chen Yongren prepared a table full of good dishes to soothe Hua Lei's heart.

Chen Yongren delayed showing up, and Hua Lei sat on the chair, holding her bowl and chopsticks, feeling uneasy.

A surprise?

What surprise?

Just as she was thinking, a familiar voice sounded in her ear.

"Hua Lei, long time no see."

"... This voice?" Hua Lei's heart jolted, and she looked toward the sound.

Seeing the person before her, Hua Lei froze, couldn't help widening her eyes, and instinctively covered her mouth.

She recognized him at once: this person was precisely the young master who had given her ten fabi that night.

Without those ten dollars, she couldn't even bury her father's body.

"Why A Ren't you speaking?" Chen Yongren asked with a smile.

"I…" Hua Lei wanted to speak but stopped.

"What, you don't recognize me?" Chen Yongren asked.

"How…" Hua Lei could hardly believe that the person she had been longing for had always been by her side.

"Any problems?" Chen Yongren said with a smile.

"No…" Hua Lei suddenly felt her mind in a jumble, speaking incoherently: "I just… just now… this…"

"You're surprised?" Chen Yongren asked.

Hua Lei nodded: "Can I ask now?"

"Go ahead," Chen Yongren said with a smile.

"Who exactly are you?" Hua Lei looked at Chen Yongren and asked carefully: "That day's young master, your current identity, and the things you had me do…"

Chen Yongren smiled: "Let me briefly introduce myself—I am Chen Yongren, a team member of the Military Statistics Bureau's Songhu area."

For safety's sake, Chen Yongren did not reveal his position as station chief.

"!" Hua Lei's eyes widened.

She looked at Chen Yongren in disbelief, her eyes even showing a hint of fear, then quickly stood up and retreated several steps.

She could never have imagined that this gentle gentleman before her was actually a special agent of the Military Statistics Bureau.

It's no wonder she's afraid.

After all.

The fearsome reputation of the Military Statistics Bureau is not just empty talk.

Hua Lei's reaction was exactly what Chen Yongren had anticipated.

This is the normal reaction of anyone hearing the Military Statistics Bureau's name.

Hua Lei was so shocked she couldn't speak.

Chen Yongren's expression remained calm as he looked at the frightened Hua Lei and said with a smile: "Hua Lei, you also saw what happened today."

"If you regret it now, there's still time; I'll find a way to send you to a safe place and guarantee you'll never lack food or clothing for the rest of your life."
