The main thing is to make money, and the rest is just a matter of convenience.

While waiting for the results, Hua Yan didn't have a moment to herself, because she received a call from Hai Jiang.

Since subduing this person, there had been no contact at all. This sudden phone call made Hua Yan feel that something big was about to happen.

"Boss, J country is about to carry out a major operation. I don't know the specifics, but I do know that a lot of people have been sent to Heilongjiang Province."

"Okay! I understand. Continue to monitor their actions and report back immediately if there is any news."

"Yes! Boss!"

Hua Yan hung up the phone and called An Xin in J country. An Xin was currently busy gathering information about the red-light district in J country.

"Uncle Xin, has there been any unusual activity in Country J lately?"

“I’ve sent people to gather information from both the government and the red-light district, but I haven’t found any activity. Jiu’er, wait a minute, I have a phone call coming in. Maybe there’s some news. I’ll call you back later.”

Before Hua Yan could speak, An Xin had already dropped the bomb.

Heilongjiang Province—it used to be a stronghold for Japan's invasion of China; it must have many secret bases there. Hua Yan analyzed in her mind.

She remembered reading some inside information in her previous life, saying that when Country J surrendered and retreated, they left many people there to protect their research results, thinking that one day they could fight back or cause trouble for the Chinese people.

Hua Yan calmed herself down and carefully recalled the relevant information. It seemed that there was a research base of Country J in a place called Laoheishan, surrounded by mountains. They dug an underground structure there, covering an area of ​​100,000 square meters, which was almost undiscovered. In the end, it was a hunter who accidentally discovered a cave entrance, went inside, and discovered this secret.

Soon, An Xin called back.

"Jiu'er, I just received the latest news. Country J is going to send a group of people to Heilongjiang Province in China to look for the research results they left behind back then. Then they will create a world-shaking epidemic in China and deal a heavy blow to China."

Do you know the specific location, departure time, and the detailed personnel involved?

"The specific departure time is one week from now, the location is Laoheishan in Heilongjiang Province, the group consists of ten people, led by Ono Kawashima."

"Okay! I understand. Have Uncle Liang bring his men back. We need to go to Heilongjiang Province."

"Jiu'er, shall I go back with Liangzi?"

"No need, it's enough that Uncle Liang is back. Your mission is very important; it's the key to our success."

"Then please be careful and tell me if anything happens."

"Uncle Xin, don't worry. Take good care of yourself. The mission is important, but life is more important. The mission can fail, but life cannot be lost."

"okay, I get it."

-

Five days later, Hua Yan and Liu Liang, who had returned to China, took twenty people to Heilongjiang Province. She told Hua Jingxing that she was going on a trip and asked Liu Liang to protect her.

Kong Wen wanted to go with them, but Hua Yan refused and told him to protect Taiji.

Hua Jingxing knew her daughter wasn't going on a trip; she must have something important to do. Otherwise, Hua Rong would have cried so much about wanting to go with her, but Hua Yan hadn't agreed. However, with Liu Liang accompanying her, Hua Jingxing wasn't too worried.

Haha! He must not know what his daughter has been up to, otherwise he would have been scared to death on the spot.

They set off earlier than the J country people, wanting to scout ahead and make preparations. They didn't know the exact location, only that it was Laoheishan.

Liu Liang had people stationed at the airport, train station, and bus station. They had photos of Ono Kawashima and could recognize him immediately if he appeared.

Hua Yan was afraid of not being able to find the place, so she divided into several groups and followed Ono Kawashima.

As soon as Onogawajima appeared, Huayan received the information and, based on the clues provided, she took action.

Hua Yan and Liu Liang only brought three people with them, traveling light, and headed deep into the mountains of Laoheishan.

Before heading into the mountains, Hua Yan made one last contact with the people who were following Ono Kawanashima, and then asked them to wait outside the mountains, because if they continued to follow, they would easily be discovered, which would inevitably alert the enemy.

As long as she's in this mountain, Hua Yan can guarantee she'll get what she wants.

Hua Yan released the detection expert, Qiu Bao, but she did so behind Liu Liang and the others' backs.

Previously, when Qiu Bao was exploring for treasure, he displayed extraordinary abilities, so Hua Yan immediately thought of him.

Qiu Bao set off first, specifically to explore places with underground air-raid shelters. If he found any, he would send a message to Hua Yan.

Previously, they could transmit messages over a distance of fifty meters, but with Hua Yan's improved skills, that distance can now reach five hundred meters.

Liu Liang and his group would never discover Qiu Bao's existence, which meant Hua Yan had no psychological burden whatsoever.

During a thorough search of Laoheishan Mountain, Qiu Bao discovered two air-raid shelters and promptly notified Hua Yan. Hua Yan led Liu Liang and the others inside, only to find that they were just ordinary air-raid shelters with no facilities inside.

However, no one was discouraged, because even though they had only searched a small part of such a large mountain, there was still hope.

The first day yielded little result, and the second day was equally fruitless. Just as Hua Yan was about to call it a day, she received a message from Qiu Bao saying there was a huge air-raid shelter ahead with many things inside. Hua Yan instinctively felt that this was the place they were looking for.

They led the group to a particularly well-hidden cave entrance; if it weren't for Qiu Bao, they probably wouldn't have discovered it.

"Jiu'er, you're amazing! How did you even notice that?"

Liu Liang watched as Hua Yan parted the dense weeds, revealing a cave entrance large enough for one person to enter. If the weeds hadn't been parted, no one would have guessed there was a cave entrance there.

"Uncle Liang, look, the weeds here grow differently from other places; they grow from the periphery toward the center."

"Oh! It really is. Jiu'er, I'll go first, you follow behind."

This opening was smaller than the previous ones, which made him uneasy, so Liu Liang didn't dare let Hua Yan go first.

Hua Yan didn't try to be brave; she knew it would be useless to speak up, and Liu Liang wouldn't let her take any risks. Fortunately, Qiu Bao had already scouted ahead, so Liu Liang wasn't in any danger.

This cave is a long tunnel, about two hundred meters long, and it feels very oppressive when you walk through it.

Hua Yan not only provided everyone with flashlights, but also headlamps. Although it was very dark inside, it didn't affect their vision.

Finally, after passing through this long and oppressive tunnel, the view ahead suddenly opened up.

Wow! This place is huge!

Someone exclaimed.

It is indeed too big, like a large factory with a lot of large equipment. Hua Yan believes there must be other entrances, otherwise these equipment cannot be transported in from here.

Upon closer inspection, it resembles a fully functional chemical plant, complete with reaction tanks, testing rooms, laboratories, refining rooms, and numerous bones.

Liu Liang picked up a bone and examined it closely; it looked like a human arm. He then picked up a round bone that looked like a child's skull.

Everyone fell silent, their expressions grim.

Further ahead, there is a huge pit filled with bones, where you can clearly see human skulls and leg bones.

Hua Yan gasped in shock. How many people must have died here! It seemed this must be a burial pit, the remains of those who couldn't survive the experiments.

Upon seeing this, Hua Yan was unable to express her feelings in words; she felt a sense of suffocation, as if she were about to breathe.

These were their own compatriots, treated like livestock, without any dignity, with only death awaiting them.

Previously, I had only read about the cruelty of the Japanese invaders in books, never experiencing it firsthand. Now, this pile of bones is a stark contrast, a chilling sight. I feel as if I am one of those skeletons, waiting to be slaughtered.

Hua Yan felt unwell for a moment; she wanted to vomit but couldn't, and dry heaved.

Liu Liang and his companions weren't much better off. Although they had experienced the battlefield and faced life and death, they were still stunned by the scene before them.

The word "cruel" may not be enough to describe the atrocities committed by Country J. It was more like a one-sided massacre, and they even enjoyed the pleasure that this massacre brought them.
