"What? The prisoner is dead!"

"The radio and codebook were also destroyed..."

"idiot--"

Upon hearing Wu Sibao's report, Nantian Yangzi immediately slapped him across the face.

The trail went cold, and her eyes were filled with rage.

"Clap clap clap-"

The slap made Wu Sibao see stars, and tears and snot streamed down his face.

She covered her face and took more than ten steps back.

Chen Shen's action team was only responsible for providing support outside, so they were spared a punishment.

"T-Sir, please stop hitting him."

"I was wrong. It was all my carelessness that prevented me from rushing in immediately."

"If you kill me, there will be no one left to charge ahead..."

Wu Sibao was still angry when he saw Nantian Yangzi, while Harada Akiko pulled out a pistol.

His legs immediately went weak, and he knelt on the ground, begging for mercy.

The agents of No. 76 all lowered their heads, unable to bear watching this scene.

They became traitors, and their lives were entirely at the mercy of the Japanese.

When an arrest fails, someone always has to take the blame.

Just as Yoko Minami was about to give the order to fire, Chen Shen stepped forward and grasped Akiko Harada's hand.

"Section Chief Nantian, calm down."

"The prisoner had ingested potassium cyanide beforehand, so even if he was caught, he wouldn't live for more than a few minutes."

"The most urgent task is to investigate the clues and find his accomplices as soon as possible."

As Chen Shen finished speaking, Nantian Yangzi glanced at him.

I noticed that this fair-skinned man seemed to be quite eloquent.

However, she hates it when someone tries to take advantage of her.

Yoko Minami snatched the Browning pistol from Akiko Harada's hand.

He pulled the safety pin and aimed it at Chen Shen's head.

Are you pleading for him?

Who do you think you are?

Upon hearing this, Chen Shen's eyes turned cold, but quickly softened.

He chuckled softly and pointed to his forehead.

"I am just like him, a dog under the Imperial Army."

"Life and death are in the hands of Section Chief Nantian."

"........"

Upon hearing this, Akiko Harada, who was standing next to her, immediately covered her mouth and chuckled.

"puff!"

"This is the first time I've ever heard of someone comparing themselves to a dog."

Upon hearing this, the atmosphere around them relaxed slightly.

Ichiro Takeda waved his hand as he watched this scene.

"Section Chief Nantian, Mr. Chen is right."

"Their lives are worthless, but we still need them now."

“I suggest we take the prisoner’s body to the military police station and interrogate Kimura Shota.”

Upon hearing Ichiro Takeda's words, Yoko Minamida put down her gun and nodded.

"I will spare your lives today, thanks to Colonel Takeda's intercession."

"But if you make another mistake, your heads won't be on your necks anymore."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Shen and Wu Sibao exchanged a glance and both breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother Chen, from now on you're my brother."

"If you hadn't been there, that Japanese woman would have really fired."

"You saved my life—"

Seeing that the Japanese had already withdrawn their troops and were heading out of the dock, they realized that the Japanese were leaving.

Wu Sibao immediately bowed to Chen Shen to express his gratitude.

These words sounded sincere, but Chen Shen knew that Wu Sibao was a leopard that couldn't change its spots.

He will die at the hands of the Japanese sooner or later.

However, he still patted him on the shoulder and said:

"Alright, we're all brothers, why bring this up?"

Wu Sibao was immediately moved to tears.

"Brother Chen, from now on, all the brothers will listen to you."

"Just let me know if you need anything, and I'll definitely do it."

"You are Director Bi's brother, please help me out in the future."

Upon hearing this, the brothers in the second team looked at him with admiration.

He can easily subdue even Wu Sibao; he's no ordinary person.

........

Meanwhile, inside a residential house in the mountain town.

Secretary Xia Zhonglin, covered in sweat, approached Boss Dai.

"Boss, we just received a coded message; it's Rattlesnake's last message."

Upon hearing this, Boss Dai, who was reading the newspaper, was startled and immediately stood up.

Something happened to the rattlesnake?

So, has the poison stinger also been exposed?

He immediately took the telegram with trembling hands and began to examine it.

"The assassination of Ishida Shilang was successful, and an antiviral serum was also obtained."

"This poisonous stinger has done its job again."

Upon seeing the first few sentences, Boss Dai immediately became excited and was in a great mood.

However, as he looked further ahead, his expression turned serious.

"That idiot, he actually gave himself away."

"Luckily, the stinger is fine—"

Boss Dai knew that Zhang Hai had a penchant for extravagance and debauchery when he was in Chongqing.

Without a doubt, it must have been because this matter caught the attention of someone with ulterior motives.

He then rolled up the coded message and threw it into the brazier in the room.

"Don't contact Stinger for now."

"Order Chen Gongshu to investigate Zhang Hai's whereabouts."

"I don't believe he's dead—"

Although Zhang Hai said in the secret telegram that he would die for his country after sending the telegram.

However, the truth still needs to be verified.

"Yes, I'll do it right away."

Xia Zhonglin didn't dare to delay and immediately turned around and walked towards the telecommunications room.

Boss Dai looked out the window at the sky and sighed.

It's already winter, and the mountain town has been greeted by a light rain.

The situation in Shanghai is probably not much better; the weather is starting to get cold.

Just as Boss Dai was feeling gloomy, Guan Yongshan, the secretary of the confidential department, cautiously walked in.

He lowered his head slightly and revealed an important piece of information:

"Boss, we have a message from one of our informants in the Soviet area."

"They said the Japanese had a plan to crack down on all their undercover agents in Shanghai, called the Zeroing Plan."

"There is a list of spies who have infiltrated our ranks."

"This information was obtained by our insider at great expense."

"I bought it from a Japanese person at the consulate in Shanghai."

"You see?"

Upon hearing this, Boss Dai immediately stood up.

If this list is real, then we must obtain this zeroing-out plan.

"Is the news true?"

"Has it been verified?"

Boss Dai stared intently at Guan Yongshan, the secretary of the confidential department, and asked.

How can we verify this kind of information?

However, the secretary of the confidential department hesitated for a moment before speaking:

“Our inside sources have investigated, and this intelligence is absolutely true.”

"If the news is false, I am willing to pay with my own head."

Guan Yongshan said through gritted teeth.

He paid for the information himself.

If Boss Dai doesn't believe me, I'll suffer a huge loss.

“Okay, I remember Li Moqun has a niece named Xu Bicheng.”

"Have Tang Shanhai from the intelligence department go with her to join the 76th Division."

"Get my hands on this zeroing-out plan—"

Boss Dai noticed Guan Yongshan's nervousness and then smiled slightly.

Whether it's true or false, he needs to find a way to test it.

Will Li Moqun believe Tang Shanhai?

"He is the person Sixth Brother trusts the most."

Guan Yongshan frowned and asked.

"Didn't a few intelligence agents from Nanjing defect a while ago?"

"I heard they went to Shanghai, intending to seek refuge with Bi Zhongliang."

"You should inform Chen Gongshu to find these people and give them to Li Moqun as a gift."

After thinking for a moment, Boss Dai said to Guan Yongshan.

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."

Guan Yongshan turned around and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

A few days later, a man and a woman took a boat to Shanghai to seek refuge with Li Moqun.

Their code name is Rehmannia glutinosa.
