"Red Party?"

Upon hearing this, Cunxigong's heart tightened.

He hadn't expected to have a chance to encounter the captured Red Party so soon.

Could they be trying to test me?

Cunxigong, after all, is a veteran agent; although his heart was shaken, he kept his composure.

"Red Party?" Cunxigong feigned surprise.

"Hai!" the Japanese lieutenant replied, standing at attention, then looked at Chen Yongren and said: "Chief Commander, Okamura Commander said, if you have nothing else, you may also come along?"

This is clearly an invitation for me to go together; Chen Yongren nodded slightly.

Red Party traitor?

Nine times out of ten, it's the guy who sold out his older brother back then.

He was just worried about not having a chance to make contact with it.

Now that we've seen him, it's the perfect opportunity to take care of him as well!

Although he couldn't discern anything from this Japanese lieutenant, he knew that Cunxigong, like himself, was a Red Party agent infiltrating the interior.

He also roughly understood that Okamura Ningci wanted to take the opportunity to test him.

Cunxigong glanced at Chen Yongren, vaguely understood something, and smiled: "In that case, Chief Director Sir, let's go together!"

He guessed that Okamura Ningci had the Yuan Chief monitor him.

That said.

But a young officer who had been promoted to army lieutenant colonel before thirty truly made Cunxigong a little envious.

Promotion to colonel was imminent; he might even become the youngest general in army history.

Such a talented youth becoming a battlefield sacrifice truly makes one sigh with regret.

If the chance arises, we should still try to win him over, reshape his thinking, and make him a true warrior.

Seeing through Cunxigong's thoughts, Chen Yongren muttered to himself.

Could it be that I am a naturally transformed holy body? Not only Lin Ke Xin, but my older brother plus Cunxigong all want to win me over at first sight.

Chen Yongren nodded without changing expression, and under the lieutenant's lead, they headed toward the prison.

Along the way, Cunxigong looked for a topic.

"Chief Director Sir is much younger than I imagined." Cunxigong looked at Chen Yongren, continuing the previous topic.

"Cunxigong, you're joking; as long as we serve the Younger Brother Country, what does age matter?" Chen Yongren laughed.

"From now on we will be partners; Cunxigong, you are my senior, with more experience in capturing Red Party members, so please guide me in our work."

The two exchanged remarks and soon arrived at the prison, seeing the captured Red Party.

Because they hadn't lured out the 'Shadow' hidden in Beiping, nor other Red Party agents.

This guy had also been singled out for special attention by the Japanese; his whole body was already bruised, and if not for Cunxigong's arrival, he would have already been chopped up and fed to the dogs.

At a glance, Chen Yongren also quickly confirmed its identity.

Zhao Tuo.

The situation shows that Okamura Ningci is preparing to use this wretch to test Cunxigong; if he can confirm Cunxigong's identity, he can leave the prison.

Because the news of this guy's arrest is top secret internally, and Cunxigong only just arrived in Beiping, he doesn't really know what happened locally.

Upon entering the prison, Cunxigong covered his nose and frowned at Zhao Tuo.

Zhao Tuo lifted his gaze toward Cunxi Gong, while Chen Yongren continued to keep his head down.

"Both commanders, he is the Red Party agent recently captured." The Japanese lieutenant pointed at Zhao Tuo and said: "We've tried every possible method, but this guy is extremely tight-lipped."

"Commander Cunxi Gong, Chief Director Sir, please help us."

Chen Yongren nodded arrogantly; to him, this was an open-book exam, truth and falsehood were plain to see.

Cunxi Gong, however, was half-believing, half-doubting the Japanese lieutenant's words.

Because he came in haste, he had no time to confirm or analyze whether this was a trap.

For now, the safest course was to treat it as false.

"Pah, Riben dog spy, if you have the guts, kill me—don't think you'll get any information out of me." Zhao Tuo put on a tough front.

Its body covered in rotting flesh made it impossible to see its facial expression, yet this provided it excellent cover.

"Friend, there's an old saying: those who understand the times are outstanding; a stubborn attitude won't do you any good." Cunxi Gong coaxed gently: "Tell me, where exactly are your people hiding?"

"How many people, and what is your contact method?"

"As long as you submit to the Locust Army, I can guarantee you will receive special treatment."

"Dream on—you'll never find out in this lifetime!" Zhao Tuo gritted his teeth: "If you've got the guts, beat me to death."

There was a big pie drawn by Okamura Neiji himself; having gained a sliver of hope for survival, he could only grit his teeth and persevere.

"You idiot, a stubborn fellow." Cunxi Gong looked helplessly at Chen Yongren.

"Cunxi Jun, people like this are always tight-lipped; dealing with them naturally requires special means." Chen Yongren picked up a whip and said to Cunxi Gong.

Chen Yongren clearly understood that old scoundrel Okamura still hoped to use this guy to lure Cunxi Gong; he couldn't just stand by and watch him be beaten to death by himself.

Since he couldn't die, might as well use this damned thing to vent his anger.

As soon as his words fell, Chen Yongren raised the whip and lashed out fiercely at Zhao Tuo.

A painful sob followed.

In the empty prison, the whip cracked with a series of pap-pap-pap sounds.

Zhao Tuo's expression turned ferocious, and his anguished screams followed.

Chen Yongren, skilled with the whip, truly made Zhao Tuo experience a pain that pierced to the bone.

Cunxi Gong stood aside, his expression unchanged.

Chen Yongren was also very clear.

Although this is a screening of Cun Xigong, if one's performance is abnormal, it will likewise arouse the suspicion of Gangcun Ningci.

The Japanese lieutenant observing nearby could no longer bear it, stepping forward quickly: "Chief Commander, you can't hit him anymore—you'll kill him!"

Damn! Get lost, this kind of tough-mouthed guy should be whipped hard! Chen Yongren was very impatient.

Just as the words were finished.

Zhao Tuo let out a miserable cry, his head lolled to one side, and he fainted.

The Japanese lieutenant hurried over to Zhao Tuo's side, confirmed he wasn't dead, and then breathed a sigh of relief.

Damn it, this guy can't take a beating!" Chen Yongren complained: "Wake him up quickly—I want to see just how hard his mouth is!"

Chief Director Sir, you'll kill him like this." Cun Xigong stepped forward and grabbed Chen Yongren's arm.

Chen Yongren said impatiently: "When you caught him, didn't you find anything useful on him?"

The Japanese lieutenant straightened up and said: "We've discovered some encrypted documents; they've already been sent to the Signal Section leather clothing. If you want to review them, you must first apply to the Agency Director, and also need the Commander's approval."

Cun Xigong's heart stirred.

Documents?

It would be great if we could see the contents of the documents.

As he was thinking that, he heard someone say: "Cun Xigong, let's not waste time—let's first go to Gangcun to request access to these documents."

Cun Xigong didn't hesitate and nodded directly.

……

The events in the interrogation room were also reported by telephone to Gangcun Ningci by Songqi Zhiren.
