Chapter 455: Big Dog House

1!

The trainee on the far left shuddered and shouted loudly.

Counting from 1 to 34, plus the one sleeping on the ground, the Special Affairs Command Training Class has a total of 35 people.

"Very good. From now on, everyone remember your own number."

"I don't care about other instructors; before you officially graduate, here under me, there are only numbers, no names."

"You can call me Chief Official Chen or Instructor Chen, just like him."

"Or..."

"Chen Yanwang!"

At first, the trainees naïvely thought Chen Yanwang was just a nickname he randomly came up with to intimidate them.

But that day's training made them realize they were wrong, and terribly so.

Chen Yongren's first lesson was counter-interrogation training.

So-called counter-interrogation training isn't as fancy as the legends say; put simply, it's about increasing tolerance to punishment.

Then...

They got to see all kinds of punishments.

To help them quickly learn human anatomy, Chen Yongren also gave them a vivid anatomy lesson.

As for the experimental tools?

Naturally, they were death-row inmates borrowed from prison by Chen Yongren.

For those death-row inmates who eat human flesh and do nothing decent, being used as teaching material before death counts as their contribution to the war effort.

Compared to Chen Yongren personally demonstrating, the most terrifying part is having to do the dissection themselves.

When have the trainees ever seen such a scene?

Usually it's just target practice, sparring drills, and learning to gather and analyze intelligence.

Less than half a class period later, no trainee could still stand.

That night after training, the braised pork that was most popular with the Special Affairs Command Training Class wasn't even served a single piece.

The name Chen Yanwang spread far and wide.

That night after training, Chen Yongren called his boss.

The call connected quickly.

"Senior." Chen Yongren said.

The boss replied in a light tone: "Lixing, how's it going? Have you already arrived at school?"

"Yes, the training just ended." Chen Yongren said.

The training started so quickly that the boss was speechless: "How do you feel?"

Thinking of the trainees' crystal-clear eyes that afternoon, Chen Yongren smiled: "I feel great, much more fun than in Yu City."

The boss was momentarily at a loss, still wanting to comfort Chen Yongren's emotions.

Now upon seeing, it turns out I was overthinking.

After casually telling Chen Yongren a couple of things, the boss hung up.

Training continued the next day as usual.

The trainees also tragically discovered that this instructor of theirs was practically an all-round athlete; in unarmed combat, hardly anyone could get past even one move from him.

Without any tools, climbing a six-story building barehanded was trivial for him.

On the 300-meter rifle range, every shot hit the bullseye.

The same went for the pistol range.

His draw speed was lightning-fast; before others could react, three bullets had already left three tiny holes on the target paper.

Even the toothpick he snatched from the cafeteria could be used as a weapon to kill, completely overturning these trainees' worldview.

Especially Chen Yongren's line: "I want to take on ten."

And after he actually knocked down ten of them, these trainees were utterly convinced and no longer looked down on Chen Yongren because of his age.

Besides daily training.

Chen Yongren likewise began teaching them Japanese and English.

Knowing an extra language opens an extra path.

Under Chen Yongren's devilish training, these trainees progressed rapidly.

But he didn't teach them everything openly.

Skills like disguise, voice alteration, handwriting imitation, lock-picking, scene cleaning, scene forgery, and the like—these housekeeping abilities—Chen Yongren kept them all hidden.

One day, Chen Yongren was training on the field.

Just staying in the school training like this is meaningless; Chen Yongren also calculated how to get them into real combat.

Special operations combat—anything can happen.

Only real combat is the best test of their performance.

Why not spend these few days wandering the streets? With the Heavenly Eye skill in hand, I'm not afraid of failing to find Japanese puppet spies.

Chen Yongren was thinking when he saw that previous colonel officer approach, salute, and say: "Chief Official Chen, a foreign woman is looking for you outside."

His gaze toward Chen Yongren also carried a hint of respect.

These days, he has seen the trainees' progress; if you have ability, you will be looked up to.

"A foreign woman?" Chen Yongren frowned.

"Damn it..."

"No."

I seem to really know someone.

"What do they look like?" Chen Yongren asked.

"Quite tall, with a head of golden wavy hair, and not bad-looking." The lieutenant colonel mused while speaking.

Upon hearing his description, the appearance indeed somewhat resembled Grace.

Could it be that the foreign girl has come?

"Secretary Lin, continue leading their training." Chen Yongren looked at Lin Ke Xin.

"Yes!" Lin Ke Xin had no objection.

During these days of training, Chen Yongren never avoided her; for things she didn't understand, he would patiently explain.

Although Lin Ke Xin did not directly participate in the training, her strength also improved rapidly.

"A woman?"

The trainees all turned their gazes toward Lin Ke Xin.

They also all knew that Lin Ke Xin was Secretary to Chen Yanwang, but the training…

Lin Ke Xin frowned slightly, knowing she was being looked down upon: "Those who are dissatisfied can step forward."

Chen Yongren stood to the side, made a silencing gesture, with a look of watching the excitement.

Trainee No. 35, that is, the guy who was knocked out by Chen Yongren with a punch earlier.

After Chen Yongren's training, he thought he was capable again; seeing Lin Ke Xin was a woman and that she had not made a move, he arrogantly stepped forward.

Then after that.

He didn't even get a chance to get close to Lin Ke Xin.

He was just hit by Lin Ke Xin's knee strike, followed by a back throw.

"Bang!"

Trainee No. 35 let out a muffled groan, fainted on the spot, and was then hung up on a tree as a mascot display.

Originally thought Lin Ke Xin was just a vase.

Who knew she was a hidden female yaksha.

The trainees' gazes toward Lin Ke Xin instantly became crystal clear, and they honestly lined up.

Chen Yongren changed into casual clothes, walked to the school gate, and saw a wave of blonde beauties, wearing a black leather windbreaker and black long boots.

The person who came was indeed Grace.

"Chen!" Grace waved her hand excitedly, bringing a surge.

"How did you come?" Chen Yongren was somewhat surprised.

He originally thought Grace's saying she would come to Rongcheng to visit him was just polite talk, but who knew she really came, and moreover she had snuck out?

He opened his insight toward Grace.

"You're not welcome?" Grace looked at Chen Yongren.

"Could it be that Chen knows I snuck out?"

"This would be troublesome; if he reports it to his superiors, it wouldn't be fun."

"After finally shaking them off, I don't want to go back."

……

What a fellow.

This foreign girl really does whatever she wants when she acts.

She says she'll sneak out and then does?

"Of course welcome." Chen Yongren looked around, then deliberately asked: "How come only you came? Where are your assistants?"

"Uh..." Grace said: "I had them rest in Yucheng; it's just us here, don't say so much, quickly take me around."
