Spy war in the Republic of China, peak undercover

"That's right. The fastest way is by water. It's also easier for the Japanese to pick us up."

Lu Yang quickly drew a sketch on the ground.

"This is the pier out of the city. They are most likely to leave from here." He pointed to a point on the map.

"Then let's go to the dock now!" Qinglan said anxiously.

"No, we can't go yet," Lu Yang shook his head. "We have to find Chen Yijun and the others. We have to find them alive or dead. Besides, Li Yunfei is a treacherous and cunning guy. He will definitely set up an ambush at the dock. We have to be careful."

"What should we do then?" Ye Wanru was also a little anxious.

"Split up," Lu Yang said decisively, "Zhou Qing, take a few people and scout around the dock to find out the enemy's deployment. By the way, see if you can find any trace of Chen Yijun and the others. Remember, don't alert the enemy!"

"Wanru, go to Zuixianlou and find Boss Wang. Ask him to help us gather information. He has some connections in Zhengzhou and might be able to find some clues. Take Wang Fugui with you too; he might be able to use him."

"Qinglan and I are going to the Japanese secret base."

Lu Yang picked up the photo he found in the secret room. "According to the letter in the secret room in Wolong Town, Zhang Debiao once mentioned that everything should be arranged by the 'Sickle Weasel'. The signature on the letter is a strange pattern, like a sickle and also like a beast's claw. I think this is the symbol of the mole unit, codenamed 'Sickle Weasel'. If I'm not mistaken, this codename should be related to a secret organization of the Japanese, and this secret organization is likely hidden in these strongholds. We must find them as soon as possible to completely crush the enemy's conspiracy!"

"Yes!"

The three of them agreed in unison and then quickly went their separate ways.

A new battle begins again.

Based on the information provided by Wang Fugui, Lu Yang and Qing Lan found a secret base of the Japanese.

This stronghold is located in an abandoned temple on the outskirts of Zhengzhou and is very hidden.

The two men carefully sneaked into the temple and found that there was indeed a different world inside.

There is actually an entrance to a basement in the backyard of the temple.

"It seems that this is the secret base of the Japanese," Lu Yang said, "Let's go in and take a look."

The two walked down the stairs into the basement.

In the basement, the lights were on and several Japanese people in white coats were busy.

Some of them were fiddling with various instruments, some were recording data, and some were talking in low voices.

"What are these Japanese doing?" Qinglan asked in a low voice.

"I don't know," Lu Yang shook his head, "but it looks like they are conducting some experiments."

The two continued walking forward and found a huge iron door at the end of the basement.

The iron gate was closed tightly with a big lock hanging on it.

"There must be something fishy going on here," Lu Yang said, pulling out a piece of wire from his pocket and starting to pry the lock.

After a while, the lock opened.

Lu Yang gently pushed the door open and walked in with Qinglan.

Behind the door is a larger space.

In this space, there are rows of iron cages, and the people locked in the cages are actually people!

There were men, women, old people, and children. They were all skinny, with dull eyes and their bodies covered with scars.

"This... what is this place?" Qinglan was shocked by the scene before her, and her voice trembled a little.

"If I'm not mistaken, this is where the Japanese conduct human experiments," Lu Yang's face was terribly gloomy. "The people locked up in these cages are their experimental subjects!"

"This 'Kamaitachi' is most likely the Japanese secret experimental unit!"

"These beasts!" Qinglan gritted his teeth and said, "They are completely inhumane!"

"We must report the situation here to the organization as soon as possible," Lu Yang said, "This is all irrefutable evidence of the Japanese committing crimes against humanity!"

At this moment, a rush of footsteps came from outside.

"Oh no, someone's coming!" Lu Yang's face changed, "Let's go!"

The two quickly left the basement and carefully closed the door.

They hid in a corner and watched several Japanese in white coats walk in, but behind them, there was a familiar figure.

It turned out to be Chen Yijun!

Chen Yijun was tied up with a piece of cloth stuffed in her mouth. It was obvious that she had been caught by them.

"Yijun!" Lu Yang almost exclaimed, but he held back and didn't make a sound.

"This...how could this happen?" Qinglan also looked panicked.

Lu Yang never imagined that Chen Yijun would fall into the hands of the Japanese.

Did Li Yunfei fail?

He was extremely anxious now, but he knew that now was not the time to rush out.

"What should we do now!" Qinglan lowered her voice, tried to calm herself down, and asked Lu Yang.

"Where are these Japanese and Chen Yijun going?" Lu Yang thought, "No matter where they go, we must rescue Chen Yijun, and by the way, see if we can get any unexpected gains!" Lu Yang looked at Qinglan, waiting for his reply.

"Okay, this is the only way now!" Qinglan agreed.

The two men stared at the movements of Chen Yijun and others, and saw several Japanese taking Chen Yijun into the basement.

After a while, the Japanese came out, but Chen Yijun did not follow.

"It seems that they have locked Chen Yijun in the basement," Lu Yang said, "We must find a way to get in and rescue her!"

"But the security here is so tight, how can we get in?" Qinglan said worriedly.

"Don't worry, I have a solution," Lu Yang said, "Wait for me here, I'll be back soon."

"Where are you going?" Qinglan asked.

"I'll go divert their attention," Lu Yang said, turning and walking out of the temple.

After a while, gunshots and explosions were heard outside the temple.

"What's going on?" The Japanese in the temple suddenly panicked.

"Go out and take a look!" shouted a Japanese officer.

A group of Japanese soldiers rushed out of the temple and ran towards the direction where the gunshots came from.

"The opportunity has come!" Qinglan knew that Lu Yang was creating an opportunity for her.

She immediately rushed into the temple and ran towards the basement.

When he arrived at the basement door, Qinglan found that the Japanese guards had been led away by Lu Yang.

She quickly opened the basement door and rushed in.

"Yijun! Yijun!" Qinglan called out Chen Yijun's name while looking for her.

Finally, in a corner, Qinglan found Chen Yijun tied to a chair.

"Yijun, are you okay?" Qinglan hurried over and untied the ropes on Chen Yijun.

"Qing...Qinglan? Why are you here?" Chen Yijun was surprised and moved when she saw Qinglan.

"No time to explain," Qinglan said, "Let's go!"

The two were about to leave when suddenly a voice came from behind them.

"Want to leave? It's not that easy!"

The two looked back and saw a Japanese man in a white coat standing at the door, looking at them coldly.

In his hand, he held a scalpel that was flashing with cold light.

"You... who are you?" Chen Yijun looked at the Japanese and asked in a trembling voice.

"Who are we? Hehehe..." The Japanese laughed sinisterly, "We are 'Kamaitachi', messengers of 'God'! And you will all become sacrifices to 'God'!"

As he spoke, the Japanese man brandished a scalpel and rushed towards Qinglan and Chen Yijun...

"careful!"

Qinglan pushed Chen Yijun away, but he couldn't dodge in time and his arm was cut by the scalpel, and blood immediately flowed out.

"Blue!"

Chen Yijun screamed and wanted to go forward to check Qinglan's injuries, but was forced back again by the Japanese.

"Hehehe... None of you can escape!"

The Japanese man grinned and approached the two men again, waving the scalpel.

Qinglan covered his injured arm, gritted his teeth, and dealt with the Japanese.

Although she had received some training, she was not a professional agent after all, and now she was injured, so she quickly fell into a disadvantage.

"go to hell!"

The Japanese seized an opportunity and stabbed Qinglan with the scalpel in his hand.

At this critical moment, Chen Yijun suddenly rushed over and stood in front of Qinglan.

"Pfft!"

The scalpel pierced Chen Yijun's body, and blood gushed out instantly, staining her clothes red.

"Yijun!"

Qinglan screamed heartbreakingly, tears streaming down her face.

"Hey, you're quite loyal."

The Japanese sneered, pulled out the bloody scalpel, and stabbed Chen Yijun again.

"But you're all going to die!"

"You beast, I'll fight you!"

Seeing this, Qinglan went completely crazy!

She rushed towards the Japanese man desperately, grabbed his waist, and then used all her strength to knock him to the ground.

The two men started wrestling on the ground.

"Qinglan..."

Chen Yijun fell in a pool of blood. Using her last bit of strength, she pulled out a pistol from her waist and aimed at the Japanese.

"boom!"

Gunshots rang out, and the Japanese's head was blown off, splattering red and white all over the ground.

The world is finally quiet.

"Yijun, how are you? Hold on, I'll get you out right away!"

Qinglan hugged Chen Yijun and cried.

"Qing...Qinglan, I'm...I'm sorry..."

Chen Yijun's face was as pale as paper, and her lips were trembling slightly.

"I...I'm afraid I can't do it..."

"No, you'll be fine, you'll be fine!"

Qinglan shook her head desperately, tears falling like beads from a broken string.

"Lu Yang... Lu Yang... he's a good man... you... you have to treat him well... well..."

Chen Yijun spoke intermittently, her voice growing weaker and weaker.

"I promise you, I promise you..."

Qinglan burst into tears.

"Also... and... tell him... I love him... and thank him for taking care of me over the years..."

"He's right. Without him... I wouldn't be who I am today..."

"Promise me... to live well... well..."

Chen Yijun used up her last bit of strength to hold Qinglan's hand, then her hand dropped weakly and her eyes slowly closed.

"Yijun! Yijun!"
