Chapter 708: Night Visit

"The general's words are absolutely correct." Chuan'an Fu echoed.

"You've made sure there's no problem with customs, right?" Zetian Mao asked again.

"Please rest assured, general, we have already greeted them." Chuan'an Fu smiled slightly: "Customs will fully cooperate with the Yuan Chief's investigation."

"The main point is one sentence."

"Enthusiastic, polite, and knows nothing when asked three times."

"Yo, good, just like that." Zetian Mao nodded satisfactorily: "How about the documents?"

"Please rest assured, general, the customs documents are also perfect, using merchant ships as cover, and customs are all our people, guaranteeing no problems." Chuan'an Fu said calmly.

Zetian Mao nodded slightly, then cautioned: "Remember, don't make these things too perfect; being too perfect will instead show there's a problem."

"At the appropriate time, also release some people to take the blame."

"The headquarters doesn't like to investigate cases; it should discard some small fry, discard some small fry, they've enjoyed these benefits, so they also need to make some appropriate sacrifices."

"I understand, sir." Chuan'an Fu said.

"In preparation for the superior's inspection, they had already made preparations."

After a pause, the old devil said again: "Did the Yuan Chief go to Office 76 first?"

"Yes." Chuan'an Fu said lightly: "It's said that shortly after arriving at Office 76, he caused a ruckus, even nearly having Li Qun and Ding Mo shot."

"Damn it, the Yuan Chief is really useless, just two Chinese people; it would be better to just shoot them, why keep their lives?" Zetian Mao said irritably, chattering on like a woman.

"Songhu is the locust army's Songhu, yet it actually retains a Chinese intelligence department."

"Even if they don't leak secrets today, they will definitely leak them in the future."

"These fence-sitters will today betray their motherland; when their lives are threatened, they will also betray us."

"Besides their Chinese identity."

"Furthermore, those guys rely on their backing in the Mei Agency, are favorites of the Wang puppet personnel, and don't like to follow my orders."

"So Ze Tian Mao feels uneasy about Office 76, constantly complaining about wanting to disband this department."

"But it's not convenient for him to act himself; seeing the Yuan Chief arrive, who has status and background, killing them would be understandable."

"Thus, Ze Tian Mao thought of using a borrowed knife to kill."

"Who knew this plan would fall through."

"General, as long as the Yuan Chief is in Songhu, we have plenty of opportunities to use his hand to eradicate Office 76." Chuan'an Fu said confidently: "Even if we can't eradicate Office 76, we can replace them with people who obey us."

"Hearing this, Ze Tian Mao's expression eased a little."

"But they didn't expect that Chen Yongren also had this idea."

"At this moment, Chen Yongren was leading his troops to the various customs offices in Songhu."

"The customs detachments at each port were highly cooperative with Chen Yongren's team's inspection."

"Chen Yongren was not surprised either; this was clearly pre-arranged."

"Chief Commander, these are the records of all ships' entries and exits, cargo tallies, and transfers at this port over the past year; please review them!" A Japanese lieutenant directed a few Japanese soldiers to stack the documents on the table, then respectfully said to him.

"The document pile was like a small hill; not ten thousand, but at least eight thousand."

"Zhongyuan Shen looked at the documents on the table, frowned, and after seeing the same performance at several consecutive ports, gradually sensed something was off."

"He said to Chen Yongren: 'Chief Commander…'"

"Chen Yongren gestured for Zhongyuan Shen to be quiet, then coldly said: 'Zhongyuan, take all the documents away.'"

"Upon hearing this, Zhongyuan Shen could only reluctantly comply."

"After leaving the customs, Zhongyuan Shen could no longer hold back: 'Chief Commander, they are clearly colluding, deliberately making things difficult for us.'"

"If they want to make things difficult, then let them have it; after returning, arrange for people to examine these documents." Chen Yongren said expressionlessly.

"Yes!" Zhongyuan Shen said solemnly.

"After returning to the hotel, the Special Investigation Team members came to the temporary office."

"This is a large suite in the hotel; to facilitate work, a large table was placed."

"The Special Investigation Team members were bent over the table, examining the documents obtained from customs."

"Having come to Songhu for internal investigation, Chen Yongren also casually picked up a customs record to flip through."

"After a brief flip-through, Chen Yongren could feel that the record was indeed very well done, clearly prepared with effort."

"Chen Yongren wasn't in a hurry either, and prepared to play with the old devil for a few days, first completely controlling this Songhu station in his own hands."

"Time quickly came to evening."

"Chen Yongren casually closed a record, glanced at the dark window outside, and said: 'It's already dark; everyone has worked hard today, please rest first.'"

"Don't always be busy with work; also take care of your body, otherwise our enemies will be the ones pleased."

"Haiyi!"

"Upon hearing this, all the members stretched."

"After leaving the meeting room, Chen Yongren returned to his room, first communicated with Jing Xiang, so she could sleep until dawn."

"Then, exiting through the window, he left the Li Cha Hotel; after disguising himself, Chen Yongren came to Ding Mo's door, bypassed his guards, sneaked into his house, and took out the two personal guards inside."

"Chen Yongren originally intended to directly invite him out to meet."

"But if Ding Mo were to go out, who knows if his guards might have Japanese spies; for secrecy, Chen Yongren still decided to go himself."

"In Ding Mo's house."

"Inside was pitch black, all windows covered with heavy curtains, making the interior invisible."

"Ding Mo walked out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel, holding a pistol."

"Wherever he goes, he carries a gun, a habit cultivated over years as a dog agent."

"Ding Mo was about to lie down on the bed to rest."

"Suddenly he felt his gun disappear; just as he wondered what was happening, he felt a cold gun barrel aimed at his head."

At the same time, a sentence rang in his ear.

"Mr. Ding, long time no see, I don't know if you're interested in chatting with me?"

Ding Mo instantly felt a chill run through his body.

Outside are all my guards; how did this guy get in?

There's a Military Statistics Bureau insider inside!

They've come to kill me!

"Brother, don't shoot, we're on the same side!" Ding Mo said, raising both hands, his voice trembling.

It had thought the Military Statistics Bureau might come knocking, but never imagined that day would arrive so quickly!

"Same side?" Chen Yongren sneered: "Who the hell is on your side?"

"Brother, this is also a last resort; if it weren't for the Japanese watching closely, I would have rebelled long ago. You don't know, I've been day and night thinking of serving the party and state." Ding Mo said urgently.

"Oh?" Chen Yongren asked: "Why should I believe you?"

"We captured you not long ago—no, we are a few agents of our Military Statistics Bureau!"
