Chapter 285: Great Chaos

This girl was actually shooting at a person for the first time.

The target was actually the person closest to her, so claiming she felt no pressure is pure bullshit.

But she infiltrated, fired decisively, hit the target precisely, and managed to slip away cleanly.

All steps went without issue, enough to show this girl can continue on the agent's path.

Seeing Chen Yongren walk in with a bandage on his shoulder, Hua Lei jumped off the sofa, her soft feet stepping on the floor as she walked up to him, asking with concern.

"Brother, how is it? Does it hurt?"

Hua Lei wanted to touch the wound, but she didn't dare.

"This minor injury is nothing." Chen Yongren waved his hand, showing it didn't matter, then ruffled Hua Lei's hair: "You did well, not disappointing me as my disciple."

Hua Lei did not feel happy because of Chen Yongren's praise.

"How does it feel to carry out a mission alone for the first time?" Chen Yongren guided Hua Lei to sit on the sofa.

"It's quite different." Hua Lei tilted her head, thinking for a moment.

While asking, Chen Yongren also sensed Hua Lei's thoughts to prevent her mindset from having issues.

Since she passed the mental hurdle of shooting herself successfully, we can try letting Hua Lei undertake more missions in the future.

If striking herself is this easy, then striking those Japanese puppet traitors is no different from beating a grandson.

"What smells so fragrant?" Chen Yongren asked.

"Chicken soup, knowing you're injured, I specially bought some spare ribs and a hen slaughtered today." Hua Lei's face broke into a smile.

"You're thoughtful, so I ought to drink a bit more to nourish my body." Chen Yongren gently flicked Hua Lei's nose bridge.

Evening.

Knowing Chen Yongren was injured, Hua Lei took care of him meticulously.

For Chen Yongren, such a wound had basically no effect on him.

Evening.

Chen Yongren as usual had Hua Lei pass down the message.

He ordered the action team: at 8 p. m., launch operations based on the intelligence they had gathered.

Because Chen Yongren recently caused a stir in Songhu, Fujiwara Chikuta also had no spare attention for those ships, so those vessels have remained docked in the harbor up to now.

Now the timing is ripe, Chen Yongren also decided to strike those ships.

First let the troops create a disturbance elsewhere, the bigger the better, then take advantage when the little devils' attention is diverted to go bomb the ships.

With incendiary bombs in hand, not a single enemy cargo ship will be left.

Half an hour later, Hua Lei returned home and told Chen Yongren that the orders had been passed down.

8:10 p. m.

The members of the other units had already, following Chen Yongren's orders, each launched their operations.

The entire Songhu was also unprecedentedly lively tonight.

The little Japanese attacked warehouses, inspection stations, Japanese-affiliated banks, etc., in Songhu, and the garrisoned military police everywhere were scrambling frantically.

Even the Songhu municipal government building was bombed, and someone set it on fire.

A certain official's private residence was even blown up, with the whole family crushed under the rubble.

No. 76 descended into chaos, under Gu Yongshan's leadership, assisting the Japanese Special Higher Agency in everywhere encircling and suppressing the elements causing trouble in Songhu.

Fujiwara Chikuta, who originally thought he could catch his breath, was so angry smoke seemed to come from his nostrils.

Although he was at home, the phone on his desk kept ringing nonstop.

Hardly had he hung up when another call would come in.

"Damn it, why do you have to tell me about something as trivial as a wall being blown up?"

"Which wall?"

"No. 76?"

"Damn!"

Hearing this, Fujiwara Chikuta could no longer contain himself.

Was the wall of the Special Operations Department blown up by a group of rebels?

"Where is the person who blew up the wall?"

"Trash, the enemy swaggered into No. 76, yet you can't find where the people are?"

"I don't want to hear excuses, I just want results—go seize people, seize people!"

"Catch this bunch of bastards!"

Fujiwara Chikuta almost squeezed these words out from between his teeth.

After hanging up, Fujiwara Chikuta sat down in his chair with a grim face.

This is clearly an organized, premeditated large-scale operation!

Their modus operandi is no different from that of the Yellow Weasel.

Recklessly daring!

This is also a major disturbance caused by the Yellow Weasel.

"What exactly do they want to do?" Fujiwara Chikuta was greatly troubled.

Generally speaking, causing such a disturbance is merely to conceal a larger conspiracy.

But based on the current intelligence, there is no trace to be found.

Fujiwara Chikuta simply could not find a clue.

Originally it was thought that the Yellow Weasel intended to launch a grand-scale assassination operation.

Now upon inspection, the targets that were attacked are basically all government departments.

Could it be that the National Government is preparing a counterattack, so they deliberately caused panic in Songhu?

But the underground agent in Chongqing hasn't sent any word that the National Government is preparing a counterattack.

The National Government doesn't even have an airfield in the vicinity, let alone a navy.

Even if they wanted to launch a counterattack, what would they use to do it?

Ding-ling-ling~

Just as he was thinking, Fujiwara Kinta's thoughts were again interrupted by a noisy phone ring.

Fujiwara Kinta answered the phone, irritated, and couldn't help but shout, "Baka!"

It turned out to be a truck loaded with explosives that drove straight into the headquarters, killing 12 people.

……

Chen Yongren snapped his fingers, and his suit turned into night attire.

The warehouse was fully stocked, so there was no need to prepare anything.

Seeing Chen Yongren about to leave, Hua Lei hurriedly asked, "Brother, you're injured—where are you headed?"

"I just remembered I still have a shipment to pick up today," Chen Yongren casually made up an excuse.

In a sense, I really do need to pick up cargo on a Japanese ship, so it's not really a lie.

If I let this girl know I intend to seize a Japanese ship, she surely wouldn't agree, so for now I can only coax her like this.

"Really?" Hua Lei doubted, sizing up Chen Yongren from head to toe.

Even at home, Hua Lei could hear faint explosion sounds in the distance.

"Of course." Chen Yongren kept a straight face; "Don't believe me? Look, I have no equipment on me."

"What cargo? Let me just go get it for you." Hua Lei said directly: "You're injured—you can't just stay at home; what if the wound reopens?"

But she knows Chen Yongren's abilities; having no equipment on him doesn't mean he hasn't hidden things elsewhere.

"Telling you would be useless; the courier only recognizes the person, so even if you went, he wouldn't give you the cargo. Just stay home and wait for me." Chen Yongren said with a smile: "When I'm done, I'll bring you a late-night snack, okay~"

After saying that, Chen Yongren quickly left home and headed for the nearest port.

During this time, Chen Yongren killed many Japanese puppet agents and seized a lot of weapons and equipment.

One could say that Chen Yongren now is essentially a walking armory.

The streets are now under martial law; with such a big commotion, ordinary people dare not wander about recklessly.

Japanese military police and puppet agents, armed, headed to various locations to provide support.
