Chapter 535: See You Again, Grace

Farewell Chen Dian.

Chen Yongren also bought some things, and incidentally went to visit the trio.

Jinmen temporarily couldn't accommodate them, so they were left in Songhu, only occasionally coming to take a look.

Not having seen them for a long time, they missed Chen Yongren dearly; how could they bear to let him go?

After temporarily putting Fujihara Yūko to sleep, the three reviewed the old and learned anew, gaining quite a bit of new knowledge.

Ever since leaving Rongcheng, I've been busy nonstop; only recently have I had some free time.

Chen Yongren also felt it was time to get in touch with Hua Lei, Zhang Haifeng, and the others.

But the radio is a problem…

The radio in my hand can't be used, otherwise it would definitely expose me.

After all.

Hua Lei and Zhang Haifeng are already as good as dead in the boss's eyes.

Going back to look for Chen Dian also won't work, as it could easily expose the godfather's identity; since we're operating under aliases, if someone doxxes us it would be pointless.

Suddenly.

Chen Yongren thought of someone.

Grace.

I seem to not have seen Grace for a long time.

At least I'm an advanced worker.

It just so happens I haven't seen Grace in a while; with nothing to do, I'll go see her, keep in touch, and incidentally use her radio to send a telegram to Hua Lei and the others.

First I activated my Heavenly Eye, cleared out the nearby collaborating Japanese puppet lackeys, and Chen Yongren quickly left Songhu.

Anyway, they were just small fry; Chen Yongren glanced at the rewards—aside from the daily uses of Any Door, there were rewards like foreign currency, firearms and ammunition, etc.

The Dog System also rewarded some raw materials for counterfeit money.

Each time I gain a new ability, the Dog System's drop range also expands a bit, which saves me the time of gathering materials.

After taking care of them, Chen Yongren quickly left Songhu, disguised himself as a white person, and returned to Yucheng, locating Grace's apartment.

Because of the previous assassination attempt, the apartment added many guards, and Grace's apartment had its curtains tightly shut.

There were still guards at the entrance.

Chen Yongren didn't rush forward; he took out a notebook, wrote a sentence, and directed a passing bird to pick up the note and fly to Grace's room.

After circling the house once, through a gap in the curtains Chen Yongren faintly saw Grace standing before the bathroom mirror.

She wore only a white bathrobe, its sash dragging on the floor.

Grace had her eyes closed, applying something to her face while humming a little tune, her body swaying to the rhythm.

Chen Yongren couldn't help but remark, this foreign lass really keeps her figure well.

Your dear husband has come to see you.

Chen Yongren directed the bird to lightly tap the glass.

"Who!"

Grace with one hand pulled out the handgun hidden at her waist, aiming at the window, and with the other hand quickly wrapped her bathrobe around herself.

"This little vixen, really cautious." Chen Yongren directed the bird to keep striking the glass.

Grace was very wary, holding the gun with one hand and slowly approaching the window; seeing the broom leaning against the wall, she grabbed it and gently lifted the curtain.

Seeing that outside was only a bird, Grace let down her guard.

"Huh…"

Grace noticed that the bird's beak seemed to be holding something.

She walked to the window, opened it, and Grace curiously took the note from the bird's beak.

Upon unfolding it, there was only one sentence inside.

"I came to see you."

"Huh?"

Grace instantly perked up, poked her head out to look around, but found nothing.

Then she clutched the note and ran out of the apartment to the first floor.

"Miss Grace."

The two guards at the entrance saluted.

"Anyone looking for me?" Grace asked.

The guards shook their heads.

Grace didn't believe them, looking all around for Chen Yongren's figure.

"Heard you're looking for me?"

Hearing the voice behind her, Grace spun around, only to find a stranger standing there—and he was actually a blond, blue-eyed white person.

"What person!"

The guards, however, were wary and raised their guns.

"Miss Grace, do you still have that little figurine?" Chen Yongren asked.

Upon hearing that, Grace's face changed abruptly.

"Chen?"

"How did he turn into a white person?"

"Put the gun down, he's my friend." Grace then told Chen Yongren: "Come in with me."

Chen Yongren laughed as he followed behind Grace.

Only after entering the house did Grace ask: "How did you become like this?"

"I secretly sneaked back to see you.' Chen Yongren turned his head, restored his original appearance, and looked at Grace again.

"This!' Grace couldn't help covering her mouth: 'Dear, how did you do this? It's amazing! Or maybe looking at this face is more comfortable.'

Grace couldn't help reaching out to touch Chen Yongren's cheek, then suddenly thought of something: "You just said you came back secretly?"

Chen Yongren nodded: "Yes, I missed you so much I couldn't help it, so I risked sneaking back to see you."

"Dear...' Grace couldn't help embracing Chen Yongren.

If he hadn't come back secretly, he wouldn't need to change to a strange face; even a phone call would do.

"Don't speak; as long as I can see you, all this is worthwhile.' Chen Yongren solemnly looked at Grace with determined eyes, and gently put one arm around her waist.

"But isn't this dangerous for you?' Grace asked anxiously: 'Will your superior find out and punish you?'

"Punish?' Chen Yongren stared without blinking: 'Nothing is more important than seeing you; besides, who could even catch me?'

"And now!' Grace grabbed him, leaned into Chen Yongren's embrace, her chin lightly rubbing his chest, looked up and smiled: 'You are now my prisoner; you're not allowed to go anywhere.'

The Normandy landings succeeded, and the elite troops all stepped onto the battlefield.

Grace was like a golden silk cat, curled up beside Chen Yongren.

"Baby...' Chen Yongren said.

"Huh?' Grace.

"Can I trust you?' Chen Yongren asked solemnly.

"Dear, what's wrong, have you run into trouble?' Grace sensed something off, lifted her head and hooked her arm around Chen Yongren's.

"Could it be that they've assigned you another impossible mission again?"

"I'll go find my father right now and have them bring you back!"

"No, it's not that; it's my friend, my friend has run into some trouble and I can't contact them…' Chen Yongren showed worry: 'For some reason I can't use the Military Statistics Bureau radio to contact them, you know our discipline…

"Friends?' Grace nodded and asked: 'Are they in the United States or Chongqing?'

"Yingguo.' Chen Yongren said.

"What can I help you with?' Grace asked.

Chen Yongren said: 'I ask you to send a telegram to inquire whether they are safe; I will explain this to you later.'

"No problem, dear; we each have our own social circles, you don't need to explain so much to me.' Grace lightly covered Chen Yongren's mouth and laughed.

Besides the work radio, I also have a private radio for contacting family; you can use it to reach your friends.

Hearing this, Chen Yongren felt a surge of joy.

Sure enough, I came to the right place!
