After ten years undercover, I'm giving up.

Chapter 8 The Undercover Storm Unleashed

Thinking about it this way, Huang Zhicheng really was quite stupid.

Both undercover agents had climbed up to Han Chen's side and become his core confidants, but in the end, not only did they fail to bring Han Chen down, they also lost their own lives first.

Waaaaah, this is so tragic.

Hahahaha!

But now things are better.

The huge advantage that Huang Zhicheng left behind fell directly into Wu Shaoxiong's hands.

Wu Shaoxiong became more and more excited as he thought about it, and couldn't wait to call out the two undercover agents to meet them.

So he dialed the first number.

Ma Zhichao.

The reasons aren't that complicated.

Between Ma Zhichao and Chen Yongren, Ma Zhichao is clearly more handsome.

Wu Shaoxiong's biggest pet peeve is anyone who is more handsome than him!

But to his surprise, Ma Zhichao hung up on him four times in a row after he made the call.

Damn it!

"Okay, Ma Zhichao."

Wu Shaoxiong gritted his teeth, his eyes dark and gloomy.

"Your undercover file is now in my hands. I'd like to see how I deal with you later."

He wrote this down immediately.

Then, suppressing his anger, Wu Shaoxiong dialed a second number.

The person contacted this time was Chen Yongren.

After the call connected, Chen Yongren's deep voice came from the other end: "Hello, who is this?"

Following the code written in the document, Wu Shaoxiong said in a deliberately natural tone, "Ah Ren, right? Grandma cooked some good food tonight. Would it be convenient for you to come back for a meal?"

There was silence for a few seconds on the other end of the phone.

After a moment, Chen Yongren replied in a low voice, "It's convenient. See you tonight."

……

After nightfall.

The rooftop of a building.

Wu Shaoxiong pulled his trench coat tighter, feeling the night wind brushing against his face, chilling him to the bone.

Not long after, Chen Yongren appeared at the entrance to the rooftop.

Wu Shaoxiong sized him up and got straight to the point: "I am Wu Shaoxiong, the head of the Major Crimes Unit at Yau Tsim Police Station. I am now in charge of Superintendent Huang Zhicheng's case."

Chen Yongren's expression remained unchanged; he simply said calmly, "Chen Yongren, police officer ID DPC27149."

Wu Shaoxiong frowned and looked around: "Why did we have to choose the rooftop to meet?"

Chan Wing-yan replied casually, "Inspector Wong likes it here."

Wu Shaoxiong was clearly dissatisfied: "Next time, why don't we find a restaurant to sit down and talk?"

Chen Yongren looked at him: "You're paying the bill?"

Wu Shaoxiong: "..."

He choked for a moment, and his face immediately darkened.

"Next time, just go straight to the police station, I'll send someone to arrest you, and then we'll talk slowly."

Chen Yongren was silent for a moment, then lowered his voice: "Perhaps, it's not that troublesome anymore."

Wu Shaoxiong stared at him: "What do you mean?"

Chen Yongren gazed at the brightly lit Central district in the distance and slowly said, "Han Chen is missing."

puff--

Wu Shaoxiong almost spat out the water he had just drunk.

His eyes widened as if he had heard something utterly absurd.

"What did you just say?"

"Han Chen has gone missing?"

He was completely taken aback.

Chen Yongren's tone remained calm: "You heard me right. Something happened at the nightclub last night. A group of people suddenly attacked, first taking down the doorman outside, then rushing in and taking Han Chen away."

"There has been no news so far."

Wu Shaoxiong: "..."

numb.

He was truly numb.

The feeling was like a tremendous achievement that was already on his lips suddenly sprouting wings and flying away right in front of him.

Han Chen himself is the core of a major case.

Now that the person is gone and can't be caught, the credit naturally goes down the drain.

To make matters worse, Han Chen was taken away last night.

So, can the blame for Huang Zhicheng's death continue to fall on Han Chen?

What if this line also breaks...

Does that mean that both great achievements are lost?

Wu Shaoxiong nearly lost his temper on the spot, pointing at Chen Yongren and yelling, "Why didn't you report something this important last night?"

"Do you know what kind of nature this is?"

"Han Chen went missing, and you only just told me now?!"

Chen Yongren's eyes visibly darkened.

He already had a vague feeling about it.

This new boss is probably even more difficult to get along with than Huang Zhicheng.

In particular, Wu Shaoxiong's condescending tone when he spoke carried an undisguised contempt.

In his eyes, an undercover agent is probably not a person, but just a tool that can still be used.

Suppressing his discomfort, Chen Yongren said in a low voice, "Inspector Wu, it's not that I don't want to report it."

"The problem is that I don't know who to report to."

"You should also know that Han Chen has people in the police force."

Upon hearing this, Wu Shaoxiong's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Do you have leads on the mole?"

Investigating the mole?

That's a credit too!

Wu Shaoxiong was interested in anything that could earn him merit.

Seeing Wu Shaoxiong's sudden burst of excitement, Chen Yongren's heart sank even further.

really.

In Wu Sir's eyes, there are only cases and achievements.

As for him, an undercover agent who had spent so many years in the shadows, the other party didn't show him a single word of concern.

Chen Yongren suddenly remembered Huang Zhicheng.

Huang Zhicheng is indeed a scoundrel, and he does like to use his undercover identity to intimidate people.

But at least sometimes he would show some concern.

On his birthday, I will also remember to give him a gift.

Whether that concern is genuine or not, at least the other person is willing to pretend and put in some effort.

But Wu Shaoxiong, from the moment we met until now, has been talking about his achievements in every single word.

I didn't ask him how he'd been doing all these years.

I didn't ask him if he was in any danger.

There wasn't even a simple "thank you for your hard work."

Chen Yongren suddenly felt that the road ahead seemed even darker than before.

The last glimmer of hope that remained in my heart was completely extinguished at that moment.

tired.

I'm really tired.

Let's just destroy it.

Wu Shaoxiong, however, failed to notice his change in mood and impatiently pressed, "Speak!"

"Who is the mole? Do you have any suspects?"

He has a deep-seated contempt for undercover agents.

In his view, these people had been hanging around with gangsters for a long time, and none of them were clean. They had no right to give him attitude.

Chen Yongren replied expressionlessly, "I don't know."

"If I had really known, the mole would have been caught long ago during the last operation."

His indifferent and nonchalant attitude immediately fueled Wu Shaoxiong's anger.

"Chen Yongren!"

Wu Shaoxiong's voice turned somber.

"Do you still remember the police oath?"

Chen Yongren immediately straightened up: "I remember."

Wu Shaoxiong shouted sternly, "Recite it from memory!"

At that moment, Chen Yongren's eyes reddened slightly.

He stood ramrod straight, as if he had returned to the stubborn and passionate young man he once was on the police academy's training ground.

Then, he loudly proclaimed, word by word: "Today, I, Chan Wing-yan, solemnly swear to serve as a police officer, vowing to be loyal and devoted to the law, abide by the laws of Hong Kong Island, uphold the law and order, perform my duties diligently, act impartially, not bend the law for personal gain, and absolutely obey all lawful orders from my superiors!"

For Chen Yongren, actually wearing that police uniform had always been his most persistent and sacred wish.

Even after so many years in the dark, this thought has never been completely extinguished.

Wu Shaoxiong remained unmoved, instead coldly rebuking, "Since you still remember, who are you putting on this act for?"

"Do you even consider yourself a police officer anymore?"

Chen Yongren suppressed the pent-up frustration in his heart and replied in a deep voice, "Reporting to Inspector Wu, of course I am a police officer."

Wu Shaoxiong's tone became even more stern: "Very well, now I, as your superior, order you to fully assist me in investigating the mole within the police force, finding Han Chen's whereabouts, and completely destroying the drug trafficking group left behind by Han Chen!"

Chan Wing-yan stood at attention and saluted: "Yes, sir!"

Seeing that Chen Yongren finally bowed his head and obeyed, Wu Shaoxiong felt a little relieved.

This feeling of taming others truly satisfied him.

Damn it.

It was just an undercover agent who failed miserably.

What gives them the right to disrespect their superior?

"Alright."

Wu Shaoxiong waved his hand casually, his tone softening slightly.

"During this period, you must notify me immediately of any slightest movement."

"After the case is closed, I will find a way to get you back into the police force."

Chen Yongren replied in a low voice, "Yes."

He knew that Wu Shaoxiong's words were most likely true.
