Chapter 665: Still a Mole

Seeing Gangcun Ningci's look of wanting to lecture and punish, Chen Yongren said discontentedly, "Of course it's to arrest those resistance elements and contribute my own strength!"

"Could this also be wrong?"

"If you had told me earlier this was just a drill, how could I possibly have opened fire on them?"

"Four brave warriors!"

"They died too absurdly, too stifled!"

Chen Yongren deliberately showed an expression both sorrowful and helpless.

What happens if you don't obey orders?

Is overthrowing superiors a tradition of the little devils?

This fine habit must be maintained.

Hearing Chen Yongren's words, Gangcun Ningci naturally flared with anger, but he couldn't say much more at the moment.

After all.

The Yuan Chief didn't know this was a drill, so he suddenly opened fire.

Even if we concede ten thousand steps, he was also seeking merit.

Andan Ershisan still wore a constipated expression, helplessly looking at Chen Yongren.

"Uncle Gangcun, Uncle Andan, you still haven't told me what's going on!" Chen Yongren showed a puzzled expression.

"Isn't this a crackdown operation targeting the Red Party?"

"Why did it suddenly become a drill?"

Andan glanced at Gangcun Ningci beside him, seeing he didn't rebut, then he explained the whole story.

Of course, it concealed it; all this was a probe of Cunxi Gong.

"What?" Chen Yongren feigned surprise: "From the very beginning this was a drill, everything was designed as such?"

"The purpose was to rehearse, before the formal sweep, the Special Agency's capture of lurking Red Party members and response to sudden situations?"

"Of course, it's already March, the sweep is imminent; besides the combat troops, we can't let down our guard on agents lurking in Northern Peace!" Gangcun Ningci was angry, but since it happened, continuing to be angry is meaningless.

Moreover, setting aside the Yuan Chief's identity, even if this matter continues to cause trouble, it won't benefit him much.

A lurking internal spy that had been hidden for years appeared; Gangcun Ningci suppressed it for only a few days, and he didn't want to give colleagues, especially the navy, an excuse to criticize him.

Compared to those four who died, Gangcun Ningci was even angrier; the probe of Cunxi Gong was suddenly interrupted by the Yuan Chief.

Seeing Chen Yongren silent, Gangcun Ningci pounded the table, gnashing his teeth: "Why couldn't you have thought properly then? How could those guys slip out of the courtyard and just happen to run onto the street?"

"Uncle Gangcun is scolding me." Chen Yongren made an expression of sudden realization: "Back then I was still wondering if it was because the Northern Peace Special Agency neglected training, allowing those four Red Party members to sneak away; turns out it was all set up."

Having said that, Chen Yongren deliberately straightened his body and bowed deeply, saying: "Privacy mask, Uncle Gangcun."

"I originally wanted to perform in the operation to give you a big surprise, but this matter is because I was too impatient!"

Seeing Chen Yongren proactively admit fault, Gangcun Ningci couldn't stay angry, so he helplessly waved his hand.

"Uncle Gangcun, I'm willing to take main responsibility for this." Chen Yongren thought: "How about this: all those who died in the operation count as killed in action?"

"Hmm…"

"Give them double the death compensation, to soothe their families' emotions?"

"I have to kill people; as for the money…"

"Then we'll deduct what we can; still dreaming of getting double death compensation?"

"Dream on!"

Through insight, Chen Yongren also understood why Gangcun Ningci was angry, and clearly realized he wouldn't pursue the matter afterward.

Hearing these, Gangcun Ningci's face eased a bit, he nodded satisfied: "Not bad, Chief Director Sir, you also mean well."

Things are already like this; why dwell on the dead? We should focus our thoughts on more important living people.

Andan also breathed a sigh of relief, then pretended to be angry: "Chief Director Sir, you're really too impulsive; this is the first and last time, you must never do this again!"

"Otherwise, even if the Commander lets you off, I won't forgive you easily!"

"Hai!" Chen Yongren's expression tightened, and he hastily straightened up.

Cunxi Gong and Songqi Zhiren also came to the office to report, one after another.

Chen Yongren casually opened his scanning eye.

The little devils lifted a stone to strike their own feet, and Cunxi Gong was laughing about it.

As for Songqi Zhiren.

Recent developments show that this old devil and the internal spy 'Fire Fox' lurking in the North China 129th Division Independent Regiment have made contact…

Damn it.

Another internal spy?

Fire Fox?

Looking on the bright side, at least we know where this guy is hiding now.

If Japanese spies disguise themselves as ordinary civilians, the search difficulty would increase greatly.

Before the operation, first kill the internal spy.

Since we've run into it, we must think of a way to drag out this bastard.

Chen Yongren clearly knows how much damage an internal spy appearing before the operation can cause to the counter-sweep action.

He also prepared to first tell this news to his older brother, so they could get ready in advance.

Just like Chen Yongren, Cunxi Gong also found it strange: why did the agreed capture operation turn into a drill?

But Gangcun Ningci had already explained it once; now he didn't want to explain further, simply said a couple of sentences, and sent off the Yuan Chief and Cunxi Gong.

Until the two left the office, Gangcun Ningci then looked at Songqi Zhiren: "Songqi, how did that guy Cunxi Gong perform in the capture operation?"

"According to Guitian Tailang, he showed nothing abnormal." Songqi Zhiren respectfully took out a few photos from his pocket and handed them to Gangcun Ningci: "These are photos secretly taken by the warriors; please review them!"

When he saw those few agents slip away, Murase Gong was very angry.

Gui Tian Jun also tested him several times, but Murase Gong showed no abnormal behavior.

Okamura Neiji took the photo and flipped through it casually.

The photo inside showed Murase Gong secretly photographed while standing by the window; the shooting angles were basically side profiles or low-angle shots.

His expression on Murase Gong's face could be clearly seen.

Sometimes solemn, sometimes delighted, sometimes furious and flustered.

After looking for a long time he couldn't see any result, Okamura Neiji casually tossed the photo onto the table.

"Perhaps... Murase Jun really has no problem?" Adachi Ershisan picked up the photo, flipped through it for a while, and asked probing.

"I've said this guy is very cunning; a simple test can't reveal his identity." Okamura Neiji said unhappily: "Keep thinking of ways to determine his identity!"

Saying this, Okamura Neiji looked at Matsuzaki Zhiren and asked: "Our mole inside the Red Party, have they recently transmitted any useful intelligence?"

"Hai!" Matsuzaki Zhiren responded: "According to the intelligence transmitted by agent Fire Fox, the independent regiment he has infiltrated seems to be preparing for battle?"

"Preparing for battle?"

Hearing this, Okamura Neiji furrowed his brow, sat up straight, and asked: "What does that mean?"
