Chapter 531: Good girls, don't miss out; bad girls, don't waste

Yang Xiang said: "I learned from visiting my subordinates that recently Jinmen has some envoy coming, and they also mentioned martial law."

"I felt this matter was important, so I reported it."

"After they learned of this, they were pleased and ordered me to continue investigating their schedule."

"I originally liked listening to crosstalk, so I was familiar with that area; after a thorough investigation, I figured out their schedule."

"Originally this mission wasn't necessary, but later the liaison found me, saying the personnel executing the mission were trapped, and gave me a gun, arranging for me to carry out the assassination mission."

"After completing the mission, I saw military police searching everywhere on the road, worried about being discovered, so I threw my pistol into the river."

"I wanted to discard my original pistol as well, but Jinmen suddenly went under emergency martial law…"

When he said this, Yang Xiang looked full of regret.

"Your Majesty, I've told you everything I know; can you let me go?" Yang Xiang said tremblingly.

Chen Yongren asked: "Where is your superior, and how do we contact them?"

Yang Xiang shook his head, helpless: "When I discover something, I draw a small flame on the wall at the alley entrance, then wait for them to contact me."

"They are very careful; each meeting place is different, not to mention a fixed base—I don't even know their code names."

"You idiot, the enemy is really cunning, uncle." Chen Yongren looked at Chi Mu Chengping.

Chi Mu Chengping, however, remained calm: "After all, they're not fools; having suffered a big loss before, they will certainly learn from it now."

Then it smiled again and said: "Moreover, this operation is not without gain."

"At least we captured the real assassin, which counts as an explanation to the Army Ministry and to the Locust; it's not a total loss."

"Hai." Chen Yongren then looked at Yang Xiang: "What about this guy?"

Chi Mu Chengping promptly drew his pistol.

"We know their signal now, so Yang Xiang naturally has no need to stay; it's better to just kill him and give the superiors an explanation."

Seeing this, Yang Xiang directly pissed his pants: "Your Majesty, I know I was wrong, don't kill me, don't kill me, I'll never dare again!"

"I will surely serve the Locust Army faithfully from now on, no two ways about it!"

"I despise traitors the most." Chi Mu Chengping showed no concern, raising his hand to aim at Yang Xiang.

Chen Yongren stepped forward and said: "Uncle, I have never fired a gun to kill anyone."

"Please let me do it."

"Damn it, this dog of a thing, still wants to steal the credit?"

"Dream on!"

"This freebie reward can't just be tossed away."

"Of course." Chi Mu Chengping smiled.

Chen Yongren also acted swiftly, drawing his Luger pistol from his waist and repeatedly pulling the trigger at Yang Xiang.

"Bang bang bang~"

Yang Xiang was directly shot into a sieve, twitched twice, and died on the spot.

【Host successfully killed a traitor, obtained item reward: Banknote Printing Machine*1】

"Oh ho?"

Seeing this reward, Chen Yongren's eyes lit up.

"It's truly like sending a pillow when one is sleepy; with the banknote printer, all that's left is to figure out how to get the raw materials."

"Since the system is being so generous, we can think about printing some counterfeit money."

Chi Mu Chengping nodded satisfied: "Yo sai, Chief, well done; the descendants of the Yuan Clan should indeed have such courage!"

After seeing Chen Yongren kill someone, he not only showed no panic but was even a bit excited, feeling an indescribable satisfaction toward Chen Yongren.

But this old devil doesn't know that Chen Yongren kills as easily as slaughtering a chicken; let alone killing an agent, even slaughtering a Locust wouldn't make him frown.

He merely pretended to be a novice to avoid arousing its suspicion.

"Chief, next time you shoot, remember to aim at the enemy's head and chest, rather than firing randomly." Chi Mu Chengping said, raising his hand and pulling the trigger.

One shot to the chest, one shot to the head.

This turned into an on-the-spot lesson.

Needless to say, this old devil's marksmanship is indeed not bad.

"Yo sai, Uncle, your marksmanship is great; with you in the agency, you will surely sweep away all obstacles in the future." Chen Yongren clapped and said: "I will definitely follow you closely and study diligently from now on!"

"As long as you keep practicing, you'll naturally become like me." Chi Mu Chengping smiled, looking at Yang Xiang's corpse without turning back, and said: "Chop this damned bastard into pieces and feed it to the dogs!"

"Hai!" The two Japanese soldiers nodded and immediately dragged Yang Xiang's corpse away.

"Chief, you performed very well this time, you solved a major problem for us." Chi Mu Chengping said: "I believe your father knows about this and will be even more relieved."

After taking out the two envoys and shifting the blame, Chen Yongren was also pleased.

Chi Mu Chengping also said: "Since this matter is settled, shouldn't we now get down to business?"

"Business?" Chen Yongren feigned confusion: "A Ren't we going to look for the pistol used to kill the envoys?"

"The guns were thrown into the Sea River, Chief—do you want to drain the Sea River?" Chi Mu Chengping said helplessly: "So much time has passed; the guns have long been washed who knows where."

Afterwards, he joked again: "In such cold weather, are you trying to freeze our warriors to death?"

"Ah, sorry, Uncle, I didn't think it through." Chen Yongren added.

"Alright, don't talk about that; I heard you haven't eaten while trying to catch the assassin." Chi Mu Chengping said somewhat sympathetically.

"Hearing that from Uncle, I really am a bit hungry." Chen Yongren rubbed his stomach and said: "I still remember when I was little; whenever I was hungry, Uncle would take me to eat grilled sea bream."

"You still remember these things?" Chi Mu Chengping laughed loudly.

"That's only natural; Uncle's kindness to me, Chief will never forget in this lifetime." Chen Yongren said seriously.

"So to avoid forgetting in the future, I will definitely engrave these things on your tombstone."

"Alright, now is not the time to reminisce about childhood." Chi Mu Chengping said seriously: "Now that we have captured the assassin..."

"Let's find a place to eat; I have something more important to discuss with you."

Important matter?

Fuck!

A quick glance.

It turns out the old devil planned to take advantage of the assassination case being over, and also wanted to matchmake me, so I would marry into those Beiping nobles to draw our relations closer.

Things have come to this; since we're already here, it's the New Year...

No, the New Year hasn't started yet.

Japanese nobles?

Since they're already delivered to our doorstep, we might as well find a few more pretty Japanese girls, improve their inferior genes, and pave the way for future endeavors in Japan.

At least they're nobles.

Since we missed assassinating them, we definitely can't miss assassinating them.

Leaving them idle is just leaving them idle; better to leave them as a disaster for myself.

How did that saying go again?

Don't waste bad girls, don't miss good girls.

Of course, they have to be pretty.

"Hai." Chen Yongren slightly bowed, feigning curiosity and asked: "Uncle, what important matter is it?"
