Chapter 363: All is ready, only the east wind is missing

"Yes, Director Fujiwara, rest assured, I will definitely investigate this guy's identity thoroughly!" Chen Yongren looked at Chen Shu with a vicious grin.

Under the arrangement of Old Devil Fujiwara, Chen Yongren took Chen Shu away.

Watching the two figures depart, Fujiwara Jintai seemed lost in thought.

As of now, Chen Yongren indeed has no suspicion of colluding with the enemy.

After Chen Shu was taken to the agency prison, Chen Yongren only then learned of this matter; time-wise, he had no opportunity to pass along information…

Moreover, he has been working in Office 76 all day, never leaving the office.

Returning to Office 76, Chen Yongren sent Chen Shu to the interrogation room; knowing that this bastard had caused heavy losses to the Operations Division, the execution staff looked at him differently.

Chen Shu was quickly tied to the wooden frame.

Seeing the torture instruments hanging on the prison wall and hearing the faint screams, Chen Shu grew increasingly terrified.

"District Chief Chen, will you speak yourself, or shall we help you recall?" Chen Yongren walked over to Chen Shu's side.

Chen Shu put on a bitter face: "Sir, everything I say is the truth."

"Looks like you're still not being honest." Chen Yongren casually took off his coat, revealing the white shirt underneath, and seriously warmed up: "Give me a whip."

"I'll personally play with it today."

The little lackey on the left, sharp-eyed, immediately took the coat, while the lackey on the right handed over a leather whip.

Having just acquired the whip‑use skill, it was perfect to practice on this bastard, test the skill's effect, and let him properly carry several black pots.

"Sir, believe me, I…" Chen Shu was about to defend himself.

Chen Yongren's wrist twitched quickly, and he swung it out seemingly casually.

Only a crisp sound came from the air, yet Chen Shu suddenly straightened his body, strained his throat, and let out a miserable scream.

After a few lashes, Chen Yongren had Chen Shu wailing like ghosts and wolves, crying for his parents and begging for mercy.

The execution staff nearby couldn't help but stare wide-eyed.

They couldn't see how Chen Yongren exerted force, nor notice any extra wounds on Chen Shu's body; if anything, it was just that his body had acquired a series of red marks.

But how could that be pain from wounds left on the body?

Yet Chen Shu's face flushed red, snot and tears streamed down, and his body kept trembling.

"Speak, did you deliberately give us a fake list?" Chen Yongren asked while whipping.

"No, really not." Chen Shu shouted loudly, straining to break free of the hemp rope, but it was a sailor's knot—the harder he struggled, the tighter it became.

Compared to the physical pain of the Special Agency prison, the few lashes Chen Yongren inflicted caused pain that penetrated to the marrow, and was also a great psychological torment.

The two little lackeys on either side, arms crossed, watched the spectacle.

Chen Yongren whipped lash after lash, and Chen Shu shouted loudly: "I didn't lie, I really didn't lie."

"Just kill me."

"I beg you, kill me!"

"Want to die" Chen Yongren gave it a few more lashes: "If you don't come clean, don't think dying will be easy."

Chen Yongren applied just the right amount of force; with Chen Shu, he had to take it slow.

Anyway, the team members had already been moved to a safe spot, so there was no delay.

Besides, the intelligence obtained from interrogation gets better the later it is.

Not only does it better demonstrate the difficulty of one's work, it also highlights the value of the information, making Old Devil Fujiwara Jintai more convinced.

Chen Shu's consciousness became somewhat scattered from Chen Yongren's whipping.

Seeing that the time was about right, Chen Yongren locked his mental control onto Chen Shu, governing his words and deeds.

In one fell swoop he killed many Office 76 agents.

Chen Yongren's mental control skill received a long‑overdue upgrade.

His mental control rose from level 5 to level 6.

【Mental Control lv6】: Can control up to 6 targets, effective range expands to 30 meters, cooldown reduced to 18 hours.

While the difficulty of upgrading the skill increased, its effect was further enhanced.

A 30‑meter control range is enough to accomplish many things!

"Stop hitting, I'll talk, I'll talk…" Chen Shu's voice trembled: "Whatever you want to know, I'll tell you everything; please, don't hit me again."

Chen Yongren glanced to the side.

The lackey preparing to take notes immediately understood.

"Who exactly are you!" Chen Yongren said coldly.

"Deputy District Chief of the Songhu Branch of the Military Statistics Bureau, Chen Shu, using the alias Chen Gong while operating undercover in Songhu."

"Do you think I'm easy to fool?" Chen Yongren weighed the whip: "Want another lash from me? Tell me, what exactly is your identity?"

"I really am the deputy district chief, responsible for allocating supplies, assigning tasks to each team member, and handling trivial matters in the Songhu district." Chen Shu sighed helplessly.

"I didn't just come to Songhu; I've been secretly operating there all along."

"That list is a fake we made to deal with emergencies; if you arrest people according to it, you will surely suffer heavy losses."

"I already knew that." Chen Yongren snorted coldly: "Since that's the case, you must know about the Yellow Weasel."

Chen Shu replied helplessly: "The Yellow Weasel is a secret agent of our Songhu district; this guy's secrecy is extremely high—no one knows their real name or background."

"Them?" Chen Yongren's eyes lit up: "You mean there's more than one Yellow Weasel?"

Chen Shu nodded: "I occasionally see the district chief meeting with people of different appearances; each time after such a meeting, something big happens in Songhu, so I suspect they form an independent team."

"A team?" Chen Yongren asked deliberately.

"An independent operational spy team, composed of veteran agents with rich field experience, attached to the Songhu district but actually under someone else's command." Chen Shu gave a simple explanation.

"We rarely direct their actions; only when they cannot accomplish something on their own do we ask them for help."

"So where they are hiding, exactly where they are concealed, and what their usual identities are—I truly don't know."

But I only know one thing: their mission success rate is extremely high, they seldom fail, and the district chief likes having them assist in combat.

Where is the Songhu District chief? Chen Yongren asked.

He's very cunning; I also don't know where he is. Whenever we need to act, he contacts me. Chen Shu said.

What's the deal with that sedan? Chen Yongren asked again.

That black Buick sedan belongs to the Yellow Weasel Organization; I'm not clear on the specifics. Chen Shu smiled.

The list—I want the real personnel list! Chen Yongren asked coldly.

Chen Shu fell silent for a moment: "I can give it to you, but I want to meet Tengyuan..."

Chen Yongren thought for a moment: "No problem."

The conversation in the interrogation room could be heard throughout the room.

Chen Yongren waved his hand toward the glass, signaling them to shout at old devil Tengyuan.

Afterwards, they continued interrogating Chen Shu.

From his mouth came the admission that blowing up the warehouse, blowing up the warship, assassinating Tengyuan, bombing the airport, and assassinating the puppet high officials at the consolation rally—all these series of acts were carried out by the Yellow Weasel Organization.

Everything is ready, only lacking the east wind.
