Chapter 483: Chen the Great Swindler

~7 min read 1,294 words

After all.

Causing trouble in Jinmen, how could there be the thrill of going straight to Songhu?

The Japanese in Jinmen A Ren't as wealthy as those in Songhu, and even if you kick up a big fuss, it's impossible for this to be suspected on your own head.

And there's the most important point.

The Japanese in Songhu all know that the vehicle belongs to the Yellow Weasel.

If it shows up in Jinmen, wouldn't that be telling the little devils that the Yellow Weasel has come to Jinmen?

Even if we step back ten thousand steps.

Yuan Chief resembles Chen Yongren in appearance; he just arrived in Jinmen not long ago, and the Yellow Weasel's tank promptly appeared.

If it sparks some unrelated thoughts among those with ulterior motives…

Although the probability is low, we should avoid it if possible; anyway, with Yuan Chief's this layer of dog skin, there are plenty of ways and opportunities to mess with the little Japanese.

And we can also throw all the black pots away.

New codename: Non-stick Pan, truly lives up to its name.

This codename was also obtained by Chen Yongren through reasoned argument from the boss, in order to have great luck and prosperity when acting.

Now looking at it, it's indeed auspicious.

This is also thanks to Yuan Chief's excellent family background; he never lacked nutrition from childhood, and all kinds of good things were stuffed into him.

Yuan Chief is tall and sturdy; he can be said to be the tallest member of the Yuan Clan.

Otherwise, how could Chen Yongren hide so smoothly?

Seeing that the upgrade materials for the tank in the warehouse were plentiful, Chen Yongren hesitated not at all and upgraded every possible spot.

A series of system notification sounds rang out, and the vehicle's data kept rising.

【Wheel upgrade successful, defense increased…】

【Window upgrade successful, defense increased, added one-way function, outside cannot see inside from outside】

【Body upgrade successful, defense increased】

【Sedan newly equipped with weapons, machine gun*5】

【Sedan advanced upgrade successful, vehicle added submergence function】

……

【Congratulations, Master, this sedan has been perfectly upgraded; Master can continue to bind a second sedan】

Only when all upgradable options were completed and the sedan's attributes fully upgraded did the upgrade notification sounds cease.

At this moment.

This sedan's data is also unprecedentedly perfect.

As of now, all sedans of this era cannot compare with it.

Vehicle model: Buick Sedanette.

Theoretical speed: 220 km/h (land), 100 km/h (water surface), 80 km/h (underwater).

Defense: 100.

Firepower: 100.

Stability: 100.

Vehicle condition: 100%.

Vehicle functions: surface travel, diving.

In addition, the vehicle is equipped with a total of 8 machine guns, 10 torpedoes, and 15 shells.

The data looks very tempting.

When there's time, we should properly go to Songhu to give it a try.

First get some sleep, then wait until tomorrow to go cause trouble…

Pah!

Nurture essence and energy, participate in company affairs.

The next day.

Warm sunlight streamed through the curtain gaps, falling on the bed.

Chen Yongren again felt a familiar sensation coming from his embrace.

He opened his eyes and looked.

Indeed.

Lin Ke Xin, half-asleep, once again burrowed into his embrace…

No, I should say she has half her body wrapped around him.

Tsk…

This little girl really knows how to find a place to sleep, wanting to use him as her exclusive pillow, huh?

Feeling her soft, delicate body against him and gazing at her close-up visage, the warm breath Lin Ke Xin exhaled just happened to blow onto Chen Yongren's neck.

Chen Yongren is a perfectly normal man, so he inevitably feels a bit restless.

It's a pity that, if it weren't for her identity, a slight misstep would summon the river crab divine beast; Chen Yongren would have already gone ahead and done it.

He was thinking that in his heart.

"Mmm~"

Lin Ke Xin suddenly let out a yawn, rubbed her eyes, lifted her head, and saw Chen Yongren's smiling face.

"Hi~" Chen Yongren smiled and greeted: "How did you sleep yesterday?"

"Is it comfortable holding you?"

Hearing this, Lin Ke Xin felt her body stiffen; her formerly dazed eyes snapped open, she hurriedly let go of Chen Yongren and sat up on the bed in a panic.

Again like this!

Lin Ke Xin instinctively lowered her head to check her pajamas.

Fortunately.

Intact.

"Counting yesterday, you've slept with me twice already; I'm a decent man, A Ren't you going to take responsibility?" Chen Yongren deliberately pulled the blanket over his chest, putting on a look of grievance.

"You, still a decent man?" Seeing Chen Yongren with a look of having suffered a great loss, Lin Ke Xin's expression turned astonished; "Clearly I'm the one who's been wronged, okay?"

"Cut it out." Lin Ke Xin gave a soft hum, suddenly thinking of something, and asked in a low voice: "What did you do again yesterday?"

"I knew it was you secretly meddling all along."

"Tell me the truth: why do I keep falling asleep for no reason each time?"

"Don't tell me it's just a coincidence each time."

"Back in Songhu, you had your excuses."

"But now we're both lying low together in Jinmen, and you still want to hide things from me?"

"We came here together, so why do you keep distancing yourself from me?"

Lin Ke Xin stopped feigning ignorance and directly voiced her inner doubts.

"Don't play dumb with me!"

"Today you must give me a reasonable explanation!"

"Otherwise I will definitely report this to the boss."

"Before I could pretend not to know and cover for you a bit, but it's not the same now!"

"We're like grasshoppers on the same rope; if you stir up trouble, how am I supposed to report it?"

"If you want to die, stay away from me; don't drag me down!"

Lin Ke Xin is also smart; she directly used the boss to apply pressure.

From her perspective, Chen Yongren always sneaks out secretly, hiding his departures, which surely means he has a secret he can't let outsiders know.

"I've said it before, it's for your safety." Chen Yongren was very sincere.

In his heart, he muttered.

Is this damn thing something I don't want to say?

This cannot be said.

Young master, I'm clearly afraid of you—see, I pull out a pink door.

Coming in and going out, it shocks your worldview and directly knocks you unconscious.

But Lin Ke Xin simply didn't believe Chen Yongren's excuses: "Do you think I'm easy to fool?"

"You just found out?" Chen Yongren nodded as if it were obvious.

Hearing that, Lin Ke Xin raised her eyebrows: "I'm not joking!"

Seeing Lin Ke Xin angry, Chen Yongren added: "I only resorted to this because I understand you."

"Back in Songhu, to hide my identity, I had to keep everything from you; if you found out, wouldn't that give me away?"

"And now?" Lin Ke Xin said through gritted teeth.

She couldn't find any clue related to Chen Yongren, and Lin Ke Xin felt awful too.

"It's the same now…" Chen Yongren had anticipated that Lin Ke Xin would raise this question, so he had already prepared a response in his mind.

"I'm also thinking of your safety, so I don't want you involved in many matters."

"If you follow me, I'll have to watch out for your safety, and my attention will be divided."

"So a lot of the time, I don't want you by my side."

"You're being individualistic!" Lin Ke Xin whispered: "I won't hold you back; since we're both in Jinmen together, what's there that can't be said?"

"Many things I don't want you to know, and that's actually to protect your safety." Chen Yongren spoke gently.
