Anti-Japanese War: When I get promoted, the system will explode with soldiers

Thinking that the given code for the rendezvous must be this dock, it couldn't be anywhere else. Li Shaoyi glanced anxiously at his watch. To maintain secrecy, he hadn't let anyone else know the location except for Miss Gu. Could this have led to a leak?

Impossible. If the Japanese knew that Baiyun had landed here, there would be Japanese agents everywhere around. How could there only be a few small fry? Would anyone believe that a few small fry came to capture Baiyun? I can take them all down by myself.

"It seems the gentleman is waiting for someone?"

Just as Li Shaoyi was looking around, a woman's voice suddenly rang out beside him, coming from his left rear. Li Shaoyi immediately turned around alertly and saw that it was a crew member.

Female crew member?

It's important to understand that seafaring often takes place far from the mainland, and unpredictable events can frequently occur on the vast ocean. Therefore, under such circumstances, most seafarers are male, and women are rare. But here we are, a female seafarer.

She was about 1.68 meters tall, with long hair tucked into a hat. Her face was of mixed race, and her looks were comparable to Miss Gu's. She was truly a beauty on the dock.

"Isn't this what I've been waiting for?"

Li Shaoyi then remembered the secret code, which had startled him because of the woman's attire. She had clearly said she would come from the ship, so how could she have come from outside? However, Li Shaoyi quickly realized that she had only said they would meet at the dock, not that she would come from the ship; he had simply assumed she would.

"Are these flowers for me? These roses are quite pretty."

The secret code was exactly the same, and Bai Yuan even took out her token from her pocket, a green tag.

Miss Bai Yuan naturally accepted the flowers from Li Shaoyi's hand, then took his arm and walked out. Several Japanese agents nearby cursed and swore, wishing Li Shaoyi would provoke them. If Li Shaoyi did, these guys could take him away, and the beautiful woman beside him could also be theirs.

Normally, Li Shaoyi should have taken Miss Bai Yuan and left as soon as possible. But hearing those people around him cursing his parents, Li Shaoyi gently patted Miss Bai Yuan's hand. "You bunch of scoundrels, this way of causing trouble, I'll take you on today!"

Three Japanese spies saw Li Shaoyi approaching with a girl and chuckled, touching the pistols at their waists. They often did this in the past; when rich kids came to pick up their girlfriends, they would verbally provoke them, and those guys would never let them get away with it, resulting in the spies being apprehended on the spot.

Once the girls are in there, they're doomed; they can do whatever they want with them. These rich kids are also arrested, their fathers are forced to pay a huge sum of money, and then they're released. We get the benefits and get to sleep with their girlfriends.

But today's situation seemed a little different. When Li Shaoyi arrived, without saying a word, he punched the man with the mustache in the face. Then, when the other two tried to draw their guns, before they could even touch them, each of them was already sent flying by a kick. The movements were incredibly fast, just like those of martial arts masters.

"Good fight!"

The local people cheered. They all made a living near the docks and knew these Japanese soldiers were no good; they were always causing trouble. But they didn't dare do anything to them, since the Japanese were armed. Now, finally, someone was teaching them a lesson.

Miss Bai Yuan also looked at Li Shaoyi with surprise. She had heard of this Commander Li before, but she never expected him to act like this. "You know we're here for the intelligence gathering center today. You can't just hold a grudge against these Japanese spies and attack them in the street, can you?"

But Li Shaoyi actually did it. By the time Miss Bai Yuan came to her senses, the two were already in a car parked by the roadside. As for the Japanese soldiers shouting behind them, no one knew who had fired at them; everything ended in the blink of an eye.

"I hope we can find a place to have a proper talk and make sure this never happens again. If something like this happens again, I will request independent action from my superiors."

After Li Shaoyi stated that the driver was one of their own, Miss Bai Yuan immediately expressed her demands. If Li Shaoyi continues to act this way, it's unlikely they'll be able to cooperate in the future. Li Shaoyi is far too capricious; while on a mission, he's even thinking about punishing the Japanese, and this is during the most important mission of all.

"You must be hungry since you just arrived in Pujiang, right? Let's grab something to eat later. Do you prefer Western or Chinese food?"

Li Shaoyi realized he had been reckless, but it was clear that Miss Bai Yuan didn't know much Japanese, or rather, only the written language and not the dialects. Those guys had just insulted his parents in Japanese; any hot-blooded man would have been tempted. Besides, he was very confident in his skills; he was sure he could cripple those guys and leave them bedridden for life, so it wouldn't interfere with anything.

"Western food is fine!"

Miss Bai Yuan doesn't actually like Western food; it's just that it's quicker to eat. Chinese food, on the other hand, might take a very long time. Besides, she mainly wants to find a quiet place to talk to Li Shaoyi, and Chinese restaurants are indeed not as quiet as Western restaurants.

Hualingena Restaurant

This restaurant is a long-established Western restaurant in the Huangpu River area. The original owner was a gentleman from the British Isles. Later, after the Japanese arrived, it was transferred to a Chinese owner. Although the prices are slightly lower than before, the service has declined, especially since two head chefs have left.

Even so, this is still one of the best places on the Huangpu River beach, with a constant stream of visitors every day.

After casually ordering a set meal, Li Shaoyi discovered that Ms. Bai Yuan wasn't particularly fond of Western food either, having ordered the same set meal as him. The two found a quiet spot to sit down. Ms. Bai Yuan placed her hat beside her, and her beautiful hair fell down. It was only then that Li Shaoyi got a closer look at his business partner.
