Chapter 435: Buzzing Head

Upon hearing the three words "Chongqing Food Garden".

The boss felt only a buzzing sound in his head.

Damn it.

How could it be this place!

At 8 p. m. tonight?

Isn't this when the National Government holds its banquet?

Never mind a helper cook—why would there be a large sum of US dollars, and just this list showing up in his bag is already highly suspicious.

Who would have thought, Chen Yongren's next words left the boss unable to catch his breath.

You say you've discovered another spy group?

You've already sent people to capture Xu Minggui and surround Chongqing Food Garden?

The boss felt light‑headed and said directly: "No matter where you are, bring people to see me right away!"

He hung up the phone.

The boss wore a strange expression.

Lixing, this kid, has only been in Chongqing a few days and already nabbed two spy groups back‑to‑back?

The boss began to doubt for the first time whether he hadn't slept enough.

Or maybe he got the date wrong—today is Chen Yongren's first day in Chongqing.

After sending men to lock up the Black Mountain Group's leader and the carrier pigeon, Chen Yongren went to the boss's office.

Under the boss's questioning, Chen Yongren simply repeated the capture procedure.

"Good, Lixing, you really are something!" The boss held back for a moment, then blurted: "Damn it…"

I've never seen such an efficient agent like you.

High efficiency aside, Lixing this time also saved the superior's life!

If it weren't for Chen Yongren happening to pick it up, things could have taken any turn.

If things really followed the Japanese script…

The boss felt his scalp go numb, not daring to think further.

"All this is thanks to my senior's teaching." Chen Yongren chuckled, patted his head, and said: "Right, these are the drawings seized on the scene."

Chen Yongren took out a sheet of paper from his pocket and spread it out.

"I took a look; this seems to be the design plans for Chongqing Food Garden." Chen Yongren said deliberately.

Upon seeing the document, the boss's face instantly turned cold: "Where are the captured people?"

Since it concerns the safety of National Government officials, the boss naturally dare not delay; moreover, the plans for Chongqing Food Garden have fallen into Japanese spies' hands, showing they were clearly prepared.

"Whether dead or alive, they're in prison, awaiting your senior's judgment." Chen Yongren bowed slightly.

"Good, Lixing, you did a great job on this!" The boss shouted sternly: "Go interrogate first; this involves too much, I need to report to the superior first."

"Yes!" Chen Yongren straightened up: "Lixing will surely do everything possible, use every means, to make those two little devils talk!"

Having said that, Chen Yongren left the office.

The boss returned to his desk and picked up an internal line phone.

……

After leaving the office, Chen Yongren immediately went to the prison holding the Japanese spies.

Lin Ke Xin was also very efficient; by the time Chen Yongren arrived at the prison, she had already brought Xu Minggui back.

At first sight of Lin Ke Xin, Xu Minggui was still somewhat surprised.

I said "let's grab a meal" just as polite talk; why did you take it seriously?

But when he saw a military officer behind Lin Ke Xin, he immediately realized something was off.

Especially after learning that Lin Ke Xin belonged to the Military Statistics Bureau.

Xu Minggui's legs instantly went weak from fright, his face turned deathly pale, and he had wanted to turn and flee.

But instead, due to intense fear, he collapsed limp on the ground.

At that moment, he wished Lin Ke Xin were just someone coming to mooch a meal off him.

Xu Minggui never imagined that the person who picked up his wallet could actually be from the Military Statistics Bureau.

At this moment.

His regret was so intense his intestines felt green; he shouldn't have harbored any fluke, and the moment he tossed the briefcase, he should have just run!

"Mr. Xu, we meet again." Chen Yongren smiled happily.

Xu Minggui, however, trembled with fear, his upper and lower teeth clacking.

Chen Yongren's gentle smile, in his view, was downright more terrifying than King Yama.

"Come, tie it up first; since it's come to us, the required procedures cannot be skipped." Chen Yongren called out.

"Mr. Xu said he wanted to treat us to a meal, so I must reciprocate."

Hearing this, everyone in the interrogation room burst out laughing.

"Don't hit me, I'll talk, I'll say everything—what do you want to know?" Xu Minggui wept bitterly.

For such a traitor, the required procedures cannot be omitted.

Not long after.

Soon, miserable cries echoed from the cell.

"This bastard I'll hand over to you first—give him ten minutes of a lashing, otherwise he won't be honest." Chen Yongren instructed Lin Ke Xin, then walked toward another cell.

Xu Minggui is just an appetizer.

Yuta Miura and Shuji Kawakami are the real big fish.

When Chen Yongren saw them again, the two Japanese were tied to a wooden frame.

Seeing Chen Yongren approach, their eyes flashed with ferocity as they struggled desperately, wishing to tear him apart and eat him raw.

The two Japanese pondered for a long time but couldn't figure out what had gone wrong, and in a daze were thrown into the Military Statistics Bureau prison.

"Chief Chen." Wang Jinhu rubbed his head and stepped forward: "Following your orders, everything is tied up; do you think we can start now?"

Chen Yongren nodded, picked up a whip studded with metal sheets, and dipped it in chili water.

"Name, code name, unit, mission.".

"Dreaming..." Chuan Shang Xiu Shi strained his voice, not having finished yet.

Chen Yongren then lashed out at it with a vicious whip strike.

"Awoo~" Chuan Shang Xiu Shi let out a strange howl.

Having mastered whip technique, Chen Yongren could skillfully control the whip's force, and his strikes only made them feel more painful.

He used the whip also because his mind‑control ability was still on cooldown.

About half an hour remained.

Since the Japanese refused to talk, Chen Yongren was also happy to play with them, thoroughly honing his interrogation skills.

After about ten minutes, Lin Ke Xin walked in holding a folder and said: "Chief Chen, Xu Minggui has confessed everything; this bastard's embezzled procurement funds were discovered by the Japanese."

"The Japanese used this as a threat; this guy is also weak‑willed, blinded by a small favor."

"Upon learning that the National Government would hold a banquet at Yushi Garden tonight, he leaked the information to the Japanese."

"Xu Minggui's unit code name is Black Mountain, his personal code name is Thorn, his online code name is Mountain Turtle; he doesn't even know the specific name and work."

"Their main mission is to assassinate our high‑ranking officials."

"Damn weakling, a decent person wouldn't do this, actually acting like a dog!" Chen Yongren then lashed Sanpu Youtai with a vicious whip, shouting: "Who is Mountain Turtle?"

The two Japanese remained silent.

Chen Yongren no longer stood on ceremony, sending Lin Ke Xin away.

During that half hour, Chen Yongren wasn't idle; he didn't even regard them as people.

Whip, branding iron, bamboo skewer, and fingernail extraction were used in rotation, soon torturing them beyond human shape.

The mind‑control cooldown ended.

Chen Yongren also straightforwardly used it on them.
