Chapter 673: Investigation Direction

Hearing this, Anda Ershisan looked at Okamura Ningci in surprise, but because Chen Yongren was present, it didn't dare to ask more, only able to suppress its inner doubts.

Chen Yongren was also somewhat surprised; that old devil Okamura actually agreed so readily.

As soon as the insight was activated, Okamura the old devil's thoughts appeared in Chen Yongren's ears.

'This is actually an excellent opportunity to take the chance to discern Cunxi Gong's identity.'

'This case is too strange; perhaps there is someone inside who is betraying us.'

'If Cunxi Gong finds out, for this guy's safety he might reveal a flaw, and then we could kill two birds with one stone, taking them down in one fell swoop!'

'If Cunxi Gong has no problem, then we could use him more confidently in the future.'

……

Damn it, this old devil really has a lot of tricks.

However…

Okamura Ningci's investigative direction has already gone off track, a nonexistent 'traitor'—who exactly is that person? In the end, it still depends on a word from Chen Yongren.

Chen Yongren was thinking, perhaps he could create more 'misunderstandings' in the future.

After all.

As the head of the Special Investigations Team, he must prove his worth no matter what.

If there is no case, then he will create one for himself!

'Yes, please Commander Okamura rest assured, this subordinate will definitely join forces with Cunxi Jun to root out that damned bastard!' Chen Yongren stood and bowed deeply.

After pondering a moment, Chen Yongren said: 'Commander Okamura, since this is an investigation, could you please hand over the information of the relevant logistics units to me?'

'After all...'

Chen Yongren wanted to speak but held back, showing a troubled expression.

Okamura Ningci also understood Yuan Chief's idea.

When such a thing happens, anyone would first suspect a problem with logistics.

'Tomorrow morning I will hand over the locations of the North China-related logistics units to you; then you must investigate them carefully!' Okamura Ningci said solemnly.

'Remember, these documents are military secrets; you may only consult them internally, and must not leak them, understood?'

'Yes, Chief Director understands, please rest assured both of you; even if I lose it, I will definitely not let this document be lost!' Chen Yongren stood and said: 'Uncle Okamura, Uncle Anda, the situation is urgent, I'll go back to prepare first!'

'Hmm.' Okamura Ningci nodded arrogantly, waving his hand to let Chen Yongren leave.

'Chief Director, this time it's only an investigation; you must be careful, even if you discover something abnormal, you must not act impulsively, you must first return to report!' Anda Ershisan, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said.

Yuan Chief is no ordinary person.

He is the sole heir of the Yuan Clan, and a son-in-law of the Arisugawa-no-miya family.

'Yes!' Chen Yongren said calmly: 'Thank you, Uncle Anda, for your concern; please rest assured, Chief Director has it in mind, this time is like entering a tiger's den, I will definitely not act impulsively!'

'Hmm!' Anda Ershisan then nodded: 'If you have any needs, just say them; within our authority, we will try to meet all your demands.'

Chen Yongren nodded, turned, and walked to the door.

Suddenly thinking of something, he looked again at Okamura Ningci and said: 'Commander Okamura.'

'Chief Director Sir, what's wrong?' Okamura Ningci asked.

'Those two idiots tailing me tonight…' Chen Yongren feigned helplessness, saying: 'I understand you want to protect me, but…'

'At least find two competent people; otherwise, are they protecting me, or am I protecting them?'

'Even I, the one being protected, can spot them, let alone anyone who wants to harm me.'

'It's already good enough if they don't drag me down when there's no danger.'

'If the elites of the North Peace Special Agency are all at this level.'

'Then I really have to doubt whether Songzhi Zhiren's selection method has a problem.'

Having been mocked openly and covertly by Chen Yongren.

What's more, those words also made perfect sense, and the two old devils' faces showed some embarrassment.

Damn.

This isn't protecting you at all; it's clearly tailing Cunxi Gong.

But this is hard to say outright.

Having glanced at Okamura Ningci, Anda Ershisan was about to explain.

But Okamura Ningci stopped him with a look: 'It seems our Chief Director Sir is quite capable; I will reprimand them so they hide their tails in the future.'

Okamura Ningci brushed it off directly: 'Chief Director Sir, it's getting late; you should go back to prepare for tomorrow's investigation.'

That old devil's reaction was also no surprise to Chen Yongren; for now he could only feign helplessness and stride out of the office.

Only after Chen Yongren left the office did Anda Ershisan ask: 'General, Chief Director Sir still doesn't know that Cunxi Gong's identity is doubtful; should we tell him in advance so he can prepare as well?'

Okamura Ningci lowered his head in thought.

That actually makes some sense; last time, because we didn't notify him in advance, the North Peace Special Agency lost four excellent agents.

If we inform Yuan Chief in advance,

He is after all a newcomer; if he lets Cunxi Gong notice something, the loss would outweigh the gain.

Thinking of this, Okamura Ningci shook his head and said in a low voice: 'No problem, we don't need to tell him for now; this will also make Cunxi Gong think they are really investigating the case, not staging another plot against him.'

'Yes!' Anda Ershisan responded.

No matter what Okamura Ningci intends to do, I must also prepare myself; I must not let Yuan Chief come to harm, otherwise I too will suffer the consequences.

Thinking of that fellow Cunxi Gong,

Cunxi Gong asked again: 'Commander, this subordinate still has one matter unclear.'

'Do you want to ask why I let Cunxi Gong participate in this case?' Okamura Ningci asked.

'Yes!' Anda nodded, saying: 'Now Cunxi Gong's identity is still unclear; if this guy…'

"You're worried he'll take the opportunity to leak information?" Okamura Neiji interrupted Anda 23's words.

"Hai!" Anda 23 kowtowed: "If he's a Red Party agent, and after uncovering clues he intentionally hides them, how else can we investigate?"

"What if I say this was done on purpose?" Okamura Neiji said calmly: "This is a case that came about with difficulty and truly happened; if Cun Xigong has a problem, knowing this he definitely won't be able to sit still."

Anda 23 immediately realized Okamura Neiji wanted him to deliberately expose a flaw.

"General, will this be too risky?"

If this goes wrong, the mastermind behind it will definitely hide, and trying to pull him out later will be difficult.

Besides, the Yuan Chief doesn't know that Cun Xigong's identity is questionable, and won't be wary of him.

Okamura Neiji said coldly: "Anda, I understand your concern, but there's no better opportunity than now!"

"If we can prove Cun Xigong is innocent after investigating this case, we'll be able to give him more assignments."

Anda 23 also didn't dare to say more, lowering his head in silence.

Chen Yongren, after returning here, immediately called Cun Xigong.

"Chief Director Sir, what's up—have you finished work?" Hearing the Yuan Chief's voice, Cun Xigong relaxed.
