Chapter 324: Unearth the Resistance Fighters, Show No Mercy
Seeing Chen Yongren's man-eating expression, Gu Yongshan's heart tightened; she hurriedly lowered her head, daring not to speak further.
This guy is the type who kills without blinking an eye.
Gu Yongshan felt somewhat relieved that she wasn't on night duty today; otherwise she would surely have to answer for it.
The several lackeys scolded by Chen Yongren were sweating profusely, not daring to catch their breath.
"Damn it, a single car could wreck Unit 76 like this?" Chen Yongren pointed at the nearby ruins.
"Consultant Chen, there really is only one car; there's no need for us to lie to you," one of the lackeys said, plucking up his courage.
"You still dare to say that!" Chen Yongren glared.
"Consultant Chen, please don't be angry; they said the same thing to me." Gu Yongshan rushed forward to smooth things over.
"Moreover, even if they wanted to lie, they wouldn't come up with such a lame excuse."
"Yeah."
The several lackeys showed grateful expressions toward Gu Yongshan, nodding in unison.
"Do you mean to say that Unit 76 suffering heavy losses from a car attack will make Director Fujiwara view us how?" Chen Yongren said coldly.
"Consultant Chen, since it's already happened, we can only find a way to investigate it!" Gu Yongshan said: "This matter feels odd in many ways."
"When did Songhu have such a formidable car, and who is its owner?"
"Section Chief Gu, you're the head of the Intelligence Department; how did you conduct the intelligence screening?" Chen Yongren said coldly.
How could I possibly manage what cars have shown up in Songhu?
But Gu Yongshan only dared to think that to herself.
Chen Yongren asked again: "What's the car model and license plate number?"
"A black Buick sedan, no license plate." Gu Yongshan immediately replied: "Consultant Chen, please rest assured; I've arranged personnel to investigate, and I believe we'll have results soon."
After a moment's thought, Chen Yongren said: "Besides the investigation, we must also focus on smuggling vehicles at the port and all dealerships selling Buick cars!"
"This car wouldn't just appear out of nowhere in Songhu!"
Gu Yongshan hurriedly accepted the order.
Anyway, I'm using a fake identity, so I'm not afraid of Gu Yongshan investigating.
As Chief Consultant, I have to turn up something; otherwise, wouldn't that show I'm useless?
All night, the people of Unit 76 didn't rest, clearing the rubble and tallying the losses.
According to the statistics.
Last night, Unit 76 was attacked, with 33 agents killed, 28 seriously wounded, 16 lightly wounded, and 6 missing.
The report listed them as missing, but in fact it was impossible to piece together a complete corpse.
Since no bodies could be found, they could only be recorded as missing.
Unit 76 suffered another late-night attack, and the heavy losses quickly caused a great stir in Songhu.
After all, the commotion from this incident was too great for Unit 76 to cover up.
Takada Ryuichi's attack incident hasn't even passed, the internal mole hasn't been caught, and Unit 76 has stirred up such a huge mess.
The three slaps hit Fujiwara Chikata's old face with a pa-pa sound; this guy would be weird not to get angry.
The old devil loudly ordered Chen Yongren to nab the culprit no matter what.
Takada Ryuichi eavesdropped on the recordings of Chen Yongren and Zhang Haifeng; this old devil also listened carefully through.
Whether in the office or at their homes, the recordings showed no faults.
Especially Chen Yongren, he's a guy worth trusting.
Fujiwara Chikata grew ever more satisfied with his own gaze.
Takada Ryuichi is clearly bringing this on himself; if he hadn't insisted on investigating Chen Yongren, he wouldn't have suffered this undeserved disaster.
No.
If it weren't for his insistence on investigating Chen Yongren, it might have been Chen Yongren who died this time.
At the same time, Old Devil Fujiwara held another press conference.
He proclaimed that no matter who attacked Unit 76, he would firmly stand with the new government and fight to the end against those resistance fighters!
Those words, on the contrary, made the new government's officials thrilled.
Chen Yongren muttered to himself, waiting for the day he could take a swipe at the new government.
After the press conference ended, Chen Yongren rushed urgently to Unit 76 to prepare for an internal meeting.
The Japanese-planted spy Han Chen and the Red Party's Huang Qifa all showed up.
As Chen Yongren entered, Han Chen's expression was somewhat complex.
Since being placed in Unit 76, aside from daily reports, his duties seemed to have lost meaning; each day he could only while away the time.
Three months, then another three months; now it's almost been a year.
Every time he asked when he could return to his unit, his superior just said, "Just bear with it a bit longer; Unit 76 needs you to oversee things."
Han Chen could only be patient and continue staying in Unit 76.
Anyway, even if we dealt with him, new Japanese infiltrators would keep showing up; it'd be simpler to keep Han Chen around, saving us a lot of trouble.
Besides, there's also Huang Qifa.
Huang Qifa is currently the happiest; as a secretary chief, he has the chance to access more intelligence, and even some trivial documents can be pieced together into useful information.
Huang Qifa also took the opportunity to leak lots of intelligence, learning in advance about some of Unit 76's deployments.
The discipline of being covert and capable, lying in wait long-term to build strength for the right moment, also greatly helps avoid Huang Qifa's exposure.
The remaining core members of Unit 76 were also seated on both sides of the long table.
"Brothers, you surely know what happened in Unit 76 last night." Chen Yongren's eyes blazed as he swept his gaze over everyone, drew his sidearm, and slammed it hard onto the table.
Almost everyone's heart gave a little jump.
These bastards are really too arrogant; it's clearly a provocation against us!
Unit 76 is about to lose all face; regarding the actions of these resistance elements, we absolutely cannot be lenient!
No matter what internal conflicts we have, I hope you can stop them; from now on, present a united front against outsiders, find those bastards, and don't let outsiders laugh at us again.
If I find out again that any of you are taking advantage to play petty tricks, I will certainly not let you off lightly!
Upon hearing this, everyone in the meeting room felt as if sitting on pins and needles.
Director Yue, Unit 76 has suffered severe damage; I hope you quickly repair the damaged buildings and quickly restore Unit 76 to normal operation! Chen Yongren looked at a lieutenant colonel.
The list of wounded and fallen comrades from yesterday has been tallied; according to the list, we will distribute compensation. They shed blood for Unit 76, and we must not overlook them.
I've already notified the finance office; each person will receive double compensation!
Remember to arrange for reporters to accompany us; there's no need to hide this kind of thing.
Since the Japanese are footing the bill, we might as well waste as much of their money as possible; Chen Yongren naturally won't miss this chance.
What's more, they'll even remember this favor and credit it to themselves.
We'll stir them into a tangled mess, and they'll even thank us for it.
Why not do it?
Yes! The appointed Director of General Affairs, Yue Chengguang, immediately straightened up and said: "Please rest assured, Advisor Chen; we will absolutely not let any comrade's efforts go in vain!"
I'll handle it quickly—no, I'll take care of it right away!
