Espionage: I became sworn brothers with Zheng Yaoxian at the beginning, and became the Seventh Broth

Chapter 575 Using Oneself as Bait

After learning the cover identity of "Grey Wolf" from Mitsui Kawakami, Ye Shaohong immediately rushed out of the storeroom.

He ignored the screams coming from behind him.

Ye Shaohong no longer cared about life or death on the Mitsui River.

After leaving the storage room, Ye Shaohong immediately ran towards the office area of ​​the training ground.

Yan Shuangying originally wanted to follow them.

He was also eager to know news of Mitsui Meitaro, after all, he was the target he had been hunting for years.

But in the end, Yan Shuangying still gave up.

He stopped and stood at the door of the storage room, watching Ye Shaohong's figure disappear into the distance.

A few minutes later, Ye Shaohong returned.

Upon seeing Yan Shuangying, Ye Shaohong immediately shook his head with a gloomy expression.

"Unfortunately!"

"We received the news too late. By the time we called the intelligence agency, Mitsui Meitaro had already escaped!"

Ye Shaohong had just learned this news from Zheng Yaoxian.

The headquarters of the Secret Service is now in complete chaos because of this incident.

No one expected that Zheng Jiemin, the deputy director of the Special Service Department, a bigwig in the Baoding faction, and his personal secretary, was actually a Japanese spy.

According to Zheng Yaoxian.

Dai Yunong overturned the table in his office. Zheng Jiemin was now in a complete mess, utterly bewildered.

obviously.

Because of this incident, Zheng Jiemin realized that his future within the Special Service Department was over.

His personal secretary turned out to be a Japanese spy. Even with the support of the entire Baoding faction, he could not escape blame for such an incident.

His best outcome would be to relinquish his real power within the Secret Service and be transferred out of the department.

But he was unwilling to give up.

The Chinese have a long-standing tradition of preferring to be the head of a chicken rather than the tail of a phoenix.

Within the Special Service Department, Zheng Jiemin was the leader of the Baoding faction, a big brother, and he also controlled a considerable force.

By venturing out into the fray, he could gain some influence within his faction. But if he were transferred, all of that would be lost, and his political future would be shrouded in an indelible shadow.

So after a brief moment of stunned silence, Zheng Jiemin took action.

He mobilized all his subordinates and leveraged all his connections to begin a city-wide manhunt for the escaped Mitsui Meitaro.

Zheng Jiemin wanted to make amends for his mistake.

But Dai Yunong is no pushover either. Now that he finally has a chance to eliminate the Baoding faction, he's going all out.

He roared angrily and mobilized the undercover agents of the Special Service.

He mobilized all the forces under his control.

The police department, the smoking cessation committee, undercover agents hidden in various institutions and units, and the gangsters and thugs of Jinling City... In an instant, the entire city of Jinling City descended into chaotic madness.

In this situation, Ye Shaohong didn't have many good options. The state apparatus had already been mobilized, and what could he, a mere section chief of the Special Service Department (not even a section chief at headquarters), possibly do?

There was nothing he could do.

Now, he could only watch coldly as the two bigwigs of the Special Service tore each other apart and fought for factional interests.

He could only tell Yan Shuangying the news.

to be frank.

When Ye Shaohong mentioned this matter to Yan Shuangying, he felt somewhat ashamed.

It's not a problem with his own ability.

Rather, it was the power struggle that arose from this incident that completely altered the nature of the entire matter. The innate mission of resisting Japan and saving the nation had now vanished due to personal interests and factional power struggles. Ye Shaohong, at the heart of this vortex of conflict and the powerful section chief of the Special Service Department, felt incredibly aggrieved at this moment.

Immense anger.

"They ran away? So fast?"

Yan Shuangying had no idea what Ye Shaohong was thinking.

In fact, this is normal.

Because what's happening inside the Secret Service right now, whether good or bad, is actually considered a core secret of the Secret Service.

Ye Shaohong could not possibly tell the story.

He only told Yan Shuangying the final result.

Yan Shuangying, however, remained indifferent and showed no surprise.

Clearly, he may have anticipated this situation.

They had already made preparations long ago.

When did he begin to have this idea? It was after he had failed to kill Mitsui Meitaro for several years and had some understanding of Mitsui Meitaro's abilities, so he was no longer surprised.

Was Yan Shuangying already mentally prepared when he confessed his "collusion" with Mitsui Meitaro to commit suicide on the Mitsui River?

Ye Shaohong was unable to make an accurate judgment.

After a brief moment of thought, Ye Shaohong simply nodded silently.

"They really did run away."

“That Mitsui Meitaro is too cautious. As soon as he learned that we had arrested Mitsui Kawakami, he found an excuse to leave the Special Service Headquarters.”

"Judging from the timeline, he may have already escaped from Jinling City."

Even though Ye Shaohong was unwilling to admit this fact, he still frankly expressed his guess.

"No!" "He wouldn't run away like that. I've been hunting him for years and I know his temperament very well."

"Mitsui Meitaro is a very cautious and cunning person."

"But he was also very proud."

“He suffered a loss at your hands this time, and he will definitely try to get revenge. Before that, even if he has the chance to escape from here, he will not leave easily.”

"So we still have a chance!"

When it comes to understanding "Grey Wolf" Sanming Mingtaro, Yan Shuangying definitely surpasses Ye Shaohong.

At this moment, Yan Shuangying's judgment caused Ye Shaohong's gloomy mood to tremble.

"Is that so?"

“If Mitsui Meitaro’s temperament is really as you say, perhaps we really do have a chance to capture him.” “Let me think about what to do.”

Ye Shaohong frowned and paced back and forth in front of the storage room, trying to find a new way to break the deadlock.

Slowly, his eyes lit up.

"Have it!"

"Mitsui Meitaro wants revenge on me, doesn't he? Then I'll give him that chance!"

"It all depends on whether he can seize the opportunity."

With his mind made up, Ye Shaohong turned and walked out of the training field. Yan Shuangying smiled as he watched Ye Shaohong's departing figure.

He knew that this young man, whom he had only met a few times but greatly admired, had not disappointed him.

"Using yourself as bait?"

"His courage is indeed remarkable, and he certainly has the boldness and spirit of a Chinese man." "But don't worry, with me, Yan Shuangying, here, no one can hurt you."

"Then let me go with you!"
