Chapter 251: Direct Killing

Who are you? Chen Yongren washed his hands calmly.

Through the large glass mirror in front of him, he looked at the person beside him.

"Thanks for today, Mr. Chen!" the male attendant glanced left and right, moved closer to Chen Yongren, and said in a low voice: "If you hadn't leaked the information in advance, our comrades in hiding would have been in trouble!"

While speaking, he also furtively gauged Chen Yongren's reaction with the corner of his eye.

Chen Yongren remained expressionless, adjusting his clothes in front of the mirror.

The water from the faucet flowed with a splashing sound.

Seeing Chen Yongren silent, he hurriedly said: "Mr. Chen, your situation is very dangerous now; they already suspect you leaked the information."

Although they said they were inviting you to a meal, it's actually a Hongmen banquet!

After the organization got this news, they immediately sent me to rescue you; the situation is urgent, come with me now—I'll transfer you to a safe place right away!

Then we'll discuss how to save Zheng Qian and the other two comrades!

As soon as you get in the car, kid, we'll drive straight into the gate of Number 76.

No matter what consultant you are, you'll have to honestly reveal your identity!

You just arrived and killed someone—do you really think you're somebody?

Saying that, the male attendant grabbed Chen Yongren's arm and tried to pull him outside.

Chen Yongren looked as if he were watching a monkey show.

These idiots.

They actually chose to use such a clumsy method for screening?

It seems I just haven't killed enough people, or been ruthless enough, to make them feel afraid.

Chen Yongren would naturally not give up such a freely given reward.

After pulling twice, seeing Chen Yongren unmoved, he turned his head, forced a smile, and explained: "Mr. Chen, don't misunderstand..."

Before he could finish speaking, Chen Yongren flipped his wrist, took a dagger from the system storage, and slashed hard at his throat with a backhand.

Pfft~

A jet of blood spurted out instantly, splashing onto the floor.

The unfortunate fellow clutched his neck, looking at Chen Yongren in disbelief, as if he hadn't expected him to act so decisively.

His body went limp, he collapsed to the ground, and kept twitching.

The reason for killing him is also simple.

Gu Yongshan and Zeng Qiru could completely deny responsibility.

Refusing to admit this person was assigned by them, it's better to just take this reward rather than waste words.

【Congratulations, Master, for killing one Number 76 Agent and obtaining the item reward 'Lung Plague Ghost Pill' ×10】

Hmm?

Hearing this system notification, Chen Yongren felt a bit strange.

This was the first time he'd received such a reward; he immediately opened the system storage and found an icon of a pitch-black pill.

He clicked it.

A virtual frame appeared before Chen Yongren's eyes.

【Lung Plague Ghost Pill】: One who takes this pill will gradually show symptoms of consumption; after one hour, the effect will reach late-stage symptoms.

The person who takes it appears gravely ill, but actually has no physical problems; the drug's effect will completely disappear after 24 hours.

It dissolves quickly in water.

In reality, it's an excellent medicine for taking leave and slacking off at home.

Hmm?

Seeing this reward, Chen Yongren's eyes lit up.

Damn, this is a great thing.

Chen Yongren immediately thought of using this pill to make Zheng Qian and the other two appear to have consumption.

Although consumption can now be treated,

but Chen Yongren didn't think that the Number 76 lot would be willing to treat their illnesses.

Moreover, this thing is contagious.

Ordinary lackeys fear death more than anyone; once they know they've contracted consumption, they'll definitely try to get rid of them and avoid contact.

The usual way to handle this is to dump them in a potter's field in the suburbs to wait for death.

Although Chen Yongren had previously felt powerless about this, he suddenly felt he could try within his abilities.

The premise is that the three of them haven't defected.

Otherwise, Chen Yongren should consider how to destroy them humanely.

Damn it.

The more Chen Yongren thought about it, the angrier he got—those Number 76 bastards!

My young master's fury is huge; I must vent it properly!

After dealing with that dog scum, Chen Yongren left the restroom and headed toward the private room.

Upon getting close, he heard their conversation.

"Director Gu, the people you sent out haven't come back—could something have happened?"

"What's the rush? Maybe they're happily chatting, and my men are extracting more information."

"Director Gu really has confidence—if it's really as you say, why are we still eating here? We should just summon Chen Yongren to the interrogation room and let him have a good meal!"

"Before I handed him over to you, this person was mine!"

"If you dare call me a vase, once you fall into my hands I'll make you understand—what's so special about a vase? Even shattered porcelain shards can kill!"

Heh.

That's quite a nice thought.

Chen Yongren shoved the door open, strode into the room, without a word drew his sidearm, slammed it down on the table again, and gave them a cold stare.

The sudden movement startled them both, making them jump; seeing Chen Yongren's gaze, they lowered their heads, feeling guilty.

They didn't expect Chen Yongren to come back alone.

Whoever was in charge of contacting him—could it be that Chen Yongren killed them too?

"You two seem to be waiting for someone?" Chen Yongren asked.

"Who are we waiting for? No one told us to wait." Zeng Qirui said, feeling uneasy.

Gu Yongshan laughed: "Consultant Chen, you're joking—we were indeed waiting for someone earlier, but now that you're back, what's there left to wait for?"

Zeng Qirui rose, holding a wine bottle, trying to smooth things over, but Chen Yongren's glance frightened him back into his seat.

"Are those two dissatisfied with their pay, looking to make extra money on the side?"

"Consultant Chen, what are you talking about? I don't understand." Gu Yongshan continued to play dumb.

Zeng Qirui gave a dry laugh: "Yeah, Consultant Chen, what are you saying?"

Chen Yongren knew this would be the outcome.

"Do whatever you want, I won't object." Chen Yongren said.

"But as for me, I hope you show some respect, rather than sending a mindless beast that just barks."

"Since you two enjoy playing around and want to conduct an internal investigation, I'll keep you company and play with you until you've had your fill!"

Hearing that, Gu Yongshan and Zeng Qirui's faces fell.

Even the dimmest person can see that their scheming has been seen through by Chen Yongren.

Chen Yongren continued: "You'd better pray you don't make any mistakes from now on, otherwise you'll bear the consequences."

"Gu Yongshan, Director Gu."

"Yes!" Gu Yongshan's heart tightened, and she hastily rose.

"Damn thing, being found out is fine—just admit the mistake."

"They actually gave me up as well."

"Looking at the situation, that guy is probably more likely to suffer misfortune than good fortune."

Chen Yongren looked her up and down.

His X-ray vision activated.

Tsk.

I never expected it, I never expected it.

It's still a heart.

Knows how to have fun.

"Director Gu, you're indeed cleaner than I thought; even if you lose your job, you could still help some of Songhu's noble ladies with their hairstyles—you'd surely be popular." Chen Yongren mocked.
