Chapter 293: Must kill you

"Huh?" Chen Yongren feigned ignorance.

Gaotian Longyi stared fixedly at Chen Yongren: "If I die accidentally in Songhu, this matter will definitely be related to you—I must kill you!"

Damn it.

This newly arrived little devil, where does he get so many schemes?

Being framed for murder, Chen Yongren deliberately put on a shocked and at‑a‑loss expression, stepping back several times.

"Chief Gaotian, what do you mean? I don't understand."

Chen Yongren had originally wanted to find a chance to take this guy out directly, but now he sees he needs another plan.

Gaotian this little devil has already suspected Chen Yongren's identity, practically laying it out; before a better method is found, he must not act rashly against him.

The password leak issue hasn't been resolved, and now a big trouble has shown up.

"Gaotian, what do you mean!" Fujihara Jinta was displeased: "Just arrived on the first day, and you're targeting my people?"

"What I mean, this Mr. Chen knows better than anyone!" Gaotian Longyi stared unblinking at Chen Yongren, trying to detect subtle changes in his expression.

But Chen Yongren's acting was superb, and Gaotian Longyi simply couldn't find any flaw.

Fujihara Jinta had just wanted to speak when Gaotian Longyi cut him off: "Chen Yongren, we have an important meeting to hold now—please step out for a moment."

Chen Yongren looked toward Fujihara Jinta.

Seeing the general silent, Fujihara Jinta gave a slight nod: "Chen Sang, wait for me outside a moment!"

Chen Yongren gave a slight nod and turned to leave.

Gaotian Longyi also looked at the gate guards: "Recently Songhu has had too many incidents; you must definitely protect Mr. Chen's safety and absolutely not let him leave your sight!"

"Hai!"

The two Japanese devil soldiers at the gate stood at attention and bowed.

Chen Yongren was quite aware that Gaotian Longyi wanted to get ahead and control him, but he never imagined that this side's actions were faster, already having eliminated that trouble in advance.

Here Chen Yongren had just stepped out.

The two Japanese devil soldiers then rushed into the meeting room, first bowing individually in greeting, then each went to whisper a few words into the ears of Gaotian Longyi and Fujihara Jinta.

"What? What are you saying?" Gaotian Longyi looked at Fujihara Jinta, a flash of cruelty crossing his face.

The person he had placed inside the Fujihara Agency actually died, and the collected evidence vanished completely.

What, drinking too much, slipping and falling into the river—he must have been discovered by Fujihara Jinta and silenced.

"Hey, what are you two whispering about?" the Japanese devil major general's old face darkened.

Fujihara Jinta's face bore an imperceptible smile as he hurriedly said: "General, a soldier secretly went to drink, slipped and fell into the water, and drowned."

"Bah, this idiot, with the situation so tense, he's actually still thinking about this?"

The death of a lazy ordinary soldier, the Japanese devil major general couldn't be bothered to take to heart.

Turning his head to Gaotian Longyi, he said: "Gaotian, Fujihara's already here—what exactly do you intend to do?"

With the evidence gone, what could be said? Fujihara Jinta definitely won't admit to this.

After a silence, Gaotian Longyi muttered: "I want to say, Chen Yongren's identity is doubtful—this guy's identity is absolutely not as simple as it appears!"

"I suspect he is a resistance operative embedded within us, using his position to gather intelligence and send it out."

"Chen Yongren is either an agent sent by Yucheng or by the Red Party!"

"But in my view, this guy is most likely an agent from the Yucheng side!"

"That Yellow Weasel causing a stir all over the city!"

Since we can't deal with you, let's first take care of this suspicious Chinese person.

Hearing the codename "Yellow Weasel," the Japanese devil major general felt a stir, said nothing more, and turned his head to look at Fujihara Jinta.

Damn it.

Although Chen Yongren had been "invited" out of the meeting room, he was actually hiding in the adjacent lounge.

The room's soundproofing was excellent, but before Chen Yongren's keen ears it was utterly useless—even an inadvertent breath from next door could not escape his hearing.

This guy Gaotian Longyi's analysis is damn accurate.

He actually just outright stated his own identity?

We must find a way to extricate ourselves while eliminating this menace.

While Chen Yongren was thinking of a plan, he also continued eavesdropping on the conversation next door.

Knowing oneself and the enemy ensures victory in a hundred battles; when immersed in the situation it's easy to overlook things—having Gaotian Longyi help analyze the doubts, later we can think of ways to improve.

"What?" Hearing this, Fujihara Jinta's face filled with shock: "You're saying Chen Sang is the Yellow Weasel?"

"This is just a reasonable suspicion; I suspect everything unreasonable, including you!" Gaotian Longyi said.

"Gaotian, what do you mean by saying that!" Fujihara Jinta angrily said: "Do you suspect I'm also a resistance operative?"

"Fujihara, don't get agitated—Gaotian is a military police officer; his main duty is to rectify bad conduct within the army and cooperate in capturing some resistance operatives." The silently watching Japanese devil major general looked at Gaotian Longyi and said.

"Gaotian, please continue."

"Hai, General!" the encouraged Gaotian Longyi became even more proud.

"I say this naturally because I have my basis."

"This guy graduated from the police academy—why would he stay in Songhu?"

"I've investigated his background; it's spotless, with no issues."

"If he had problems, I wouldn't reuse him either." Fujihara Jinta sneered.

"No, precisely because his background is too clean, that's abnormal!" Gaotian Longyi shouted.

Fujihara Jinta gave a cold snort: "Could Gaotian possibly employ someone problematic as an assistant?"

"No, I only use problem‑free Japanese!" Gaotian Longyi retorted, then immediately added.

"First, during his tenure as a constable in Songhu, his performance was ordinary; later he saved your wife and daughter, and you personally went to the police station to express gratitude."

Then it happened—the Songhu warehouse attack case.

When the soldiers reported the news, Chen Yongren was also there.

Of course, this case has too many possible leaks; we can't suspect only him.

But soon, the Hu Xingrui case occurred again in the police station, and this case is full of doubts—there are many avenues for investigation.

However you look at it, Hu Xingrui seems like a character who was forcibly pushed forward.

But in the end, Hu Xingrui died, and Chen Yongren became the biggest beneficiary.

Let's change our thinking: if Hu Xingrui were a spy, how could he possibly provoke Chen Yongren?

Wouldn't that just increase his own risk of exposure?

Hu Xingrui's exposure is too unreasonable; it seems more like he was framed, and because time was rushed, things weren't done perfectly.

Hearing this, Fujiwara Kinta's complexion turned somewhat unnatural.

Back then we were under too much pressure; moreover, Hu Xingrui's early conduct was too spy-like, so we simply went with the flow and wrapped up the case to close it.

Takada Ryuichi continued: "Before I came, I deliberately investigated Chen Yongren; the investigation results were the same as Akita-kun's."

Clean—he's too clean!
