Genius Agent

Chapter 113 Successful Defection

"And one more thing to remember: don't touch opium, or I'll have your goods confiscated, and you can forget about leaving."

Su Yuncheng warned that he hated opium, which had harmed too many Chinese people. It was one thing for Horiuchi Sōsuke to smuggle other controlled items, but if opium was among the goods, Su Yuncheng would not let him off the hook.

"Don't worry, Brother Yuncheng, I haven't touched that thing."

Horiuchi Sousuke hurriedly replied that he was not lying this time; there was indeed no opium in the goods.

It wasn't that he didn't want to do it, but the opium was monopolized by the Green Gang bosses, and if he tried to touch it, they would tear him to pieces.

Some things shouldn't be touched casually.

"Okay, you can go back now."

Su Yuncheng didn't waste words with him. Horiuchi Sousuke couldn't be fooled. He just needed to send over his monthly dividends from now on.

"Thank you, Brother Yuncheng."

Horiuchi Sousuke left happily; the matter was finally settled. With Su Yuncheng joining, he could confidently purchase goods without worrying about their safety.

In Shanghai, Su Yuncheng's influence is even greater than that of his brother-in-law.

There are many things that his brother-in-law can't handle, but Su Yuncheng can definitely get them done for him.

The future is bright. Shanghai is a great place with so many opportunities. Horiuchi Sosuke believes that this will be his lucky place, where he can make a lot of money.

Perhaps his wealth will surpass that of his father.

This was also Horiuchi Sousuke's goal.

After seeing Horiuchi Sōsuke off, Su Yuncheng led Huang Chuanming and the others to training. As soon as he arrived, he saw Lu Mingxuan at the training ground.

"Yuncheng".

Upon seeing them, Lu Mingxuan waved. Su Yuncheng understood what Lu Mingxuan was up to now that he was there.

It seems that Cheng Rang from the Central Police Station has already come to see Lu Mingxuan.

"Come to my office for some tea."

As soon as Su Yuncheng arrived, Lu Mingxuan pulled him to the office. He was the intermediary who helped, and this was not the place to talk.

"Cheng Rang is here today. He wants you to put in a good word for him with the section chief and help him keep his position."

Inside the office, Lu Mingxuan got straight to the point. Given his relationship with Su Yuncheng, there was no need for much nonsense.

"He'll be fine. Dylan doesn't plan to remove him for the time being."

Su Yuncheng laughed, and Lu Mingxuan was slightly taken aback before saying, "It's alright, he sent the money anyway, you can just accept it."

Lu Mingxuan handed the box containing the gold bars to Su Yuncheng, who accepted it without hesitation.

Why not take this money? Although Dilang has no intention of taking any action against Cheng Rang now, there's no guarantee he won't in the future.

If Cheng Rang is sensible, keeping him is better than replacing him with someone else.

Sōsuke's business will be even more successful in the future.

"Thank you, Brother Lu."

"No need to thank me, you're the one who should be thanking me."

Lu Mingxuan laughed heartily. This time, the favor was done smoothly and simply, and Cheng Rang owed him a favor in return.

Moreover, it's a huge favor.

"Brother Lu, tell him not to worry. I'll be going now if there's nothing else."

Su Yuncheng got up and took the box containing the gold bars with him. Lu Mingxuan saw him off from the office, feeling a mix of emotions.

The little brother who used to need his care is now able to help him a lot.

No, now it's his turn to need Su Yuncheng's protection. With Su Yuncheng around, as long as Dilang remains the director, his position as chief inspector will be very secure, and he won't have to worry about being removed like others.

The next morning, Kento Kato went to Endo's office.

During this time, the two were secretly investigating the mole case. Endo was in charge of investigating the woman who made the phone call, while Kato Ken targeted the Shanghai station.

Together, both inside and outside, we hope to find the real traitor as soon as possible.

"Captain, it's a success! Qian Hao agreed last night."

"Really, that's great, Kato, you've done a fantastic job this time."

Endo was taken aback, then exclaimed happily.

Qian Hao is a member of the intelligence team at the Shanghai station of the Special Service Department. Although he has only been transferred there recently, he is very important in the intelligence team.

Kato Ken conducted a detailed investigation of the people at the Shanghai station of the Special Service and found that Qian Hao had the most flaws.

This person is greedy for money and lustful.

Qian Hao's family was poor, making him an easy target. After a period of preparation, Kato Ken successfully seduced him in the International Settlement using a Japanese woman.

Kato Ken used both soft and hard tactics, giving him a lot of money and also presenting him with the information that Kato had inadvertently leaked.

Qian Hao quickly chose the gold bars; he wanted to live.

Even if it was an unintentional leak, such a violation of discipline was enough to warrant his execution.

The Secret Service maintains very strict discipline, and leaking intelligence is a red line that cannot be crossed.

He had no powerful connections, but the Japanese were generous, giving him so much money and even promising to give him that Japanese woman. He had no choice.

That Japanese woman was really great; her skills were superb, and she gave him pleasure he had never experienced before.

Did Qian Hao know who the mole was?

Endo asked anxiously, but Kato Ken shook his head: "Qian Hao arrived late and is not of a high rank, so he has no access to such classified information."

Endo looked disappointed. In fact, he knew when he asked that the chances of getting the result he wanted were extremely low.

Regardless of the intelligence agency, the identity of such an important undercover agent is known to only a very small number of people.

If an ordinary team member can identify him, then this undercover agent is not far from death.

"Captain, I've already told him to investigate slowly."

Kato Ken quickly said, and Endo nodded: "You did a good job. Come on, I'll take you to see the team leader."

His investigation made no progress; the woman seemed to have vanished into thin air. He inquired at many kilns, but there was no such woman at all.

It's highly likely she's not from a brothel.

If not, finding her would be even more difficult; she might no longer be in the concession, or even in Shanghai.

In that case, he has no chance of finding anyone.

Endo had no idea that the person he had been looking for was right beside him, and he was now taking that person to see the team leader.

"Kato, you did a great job. I will recommend you for recognition."

Sato was very pleased after hearing their report. He was close to being promoted to the full position as deputy group leader. Mizuno had made another mistake in Nanjing, resulting in the loss of many people.

Even Mizuno himself almost met his end in Nanjing. This time, he lost six undercover agents. Combined with the two he lost earlier, half of the undercover agents Mizuno brought with him have been lost.

The section chief told him to come back and explain, and if he didn't provide a reasonable explanation, Mizuno would most likely be dismissed and investigated.

He has now made another contribution, and he certainly has a great chance of being promoted to team leader in the future.

If that's the case, then Endo will be his deputy leader from now on, and if Kato gets any more credit, then he'll be promoted to team leader.

If Kento Kato weren't physically disabled, this achievement would have been enough to get him promoted.

"Thank you, team leader."

Endo immediately thanked him, then said, "Team leader, Kato was the one who turned the man. Could Kato be in charge of contacting him?"

Having recruited an inside agent, it is crucial to determine who will contact that agent.

With this inside man in his grasp, Kato's position in the intelligence group will be very secure, and the section chief will not easily transfer him away.

"Okay, I'll ask my section chief."

After thinking for a moment, Sato nodded. He understood that Endo was taking care of his trusted confidant. Kato Ken's recent performance had indeed been excellent, and he didn't want to let go of such a capable subordinate.
