"Baka! They're all useless. How could they possibly have passed by? They've probably been targeted there for a long time, and we don't even know who it is."

"Also, there's been no news from the Imperial warships in the East China Sea. Are you all useless? Have you figured out everything about Su Bei?"

At this moment, Doiyu felt extremely overwhelmed. After all, so many warships had disappeared, which was no small matter, and even the Empire had begun to hold them accountable.

As for whether it has anything to do with his fat and ugly appearance, there's no need to say more; it's simply that his intelligence work was inadequate.

"Snapped!"

At this moment, he was also furious. He raised his hand and slapped Xiao Ze across the face, making Xiao Ze stagger and almost lose his balance.

"Hi!"

Xiaoze didn't reply to anything, but simply accepted the slap, his eyes even sparkling.

"Baka, baka, what good are you? You're a bunch of useless trash. People are gone, warships are gone, will I disappear tomorrow before you're happy?"

"Hi!"

Ozawa stood there, head down, looking at the furious Doi-Yuan, trembling with fear.

"Search, keep searching! Send everyone out to search!"

"Hi!"

Upon hearing this, Xiaoze reacted as if he had heard divine music. He immediately lowered his head and left the office. Once at the door, he closed it and began to breathe heavily.

"We've finally escaped a disaster. The chief of staff's temper is getting worse and worse."

After Xiaoze finished speaking, he walked straight back, because he still needed to check the situation of that courtyard and the reasons behind Shaochuan's disappearance.

Once downstairs, they gathered a group of people and headed straight for the courtyard.

Before long, they arrived at the small courtyard. Looking at the courtyard, which showed almost nothing unusual, Xiao Ze was speechless.

Just then, a dog's bark broke their confusion.

Then they saw a dog they had brought, barking loudly on a patch of grass.

"Woof woof woof!"

"Woof!"

As the dog started pawing at the ground, it became clear that the ground, which had been covered by turf, had been turned over, and fresh soil had been dug out.

At this moment, two Japanese plainclothes officers also walked over, intending to scold the dog.

He was taken aback when he saw the fresh soil on the ground.

"Major Ozawa, there seems to be something going on underground."

"What?"

Ozawa looked at the ground again and saw that the grass had been lifted up, which was obviously different from the others. Moreover, there was only one layer of grass, which meant that someone had covered it up later.

"dig!"

"Yes!"

As a dozen plainclothes officers picked up shovels and dug down, in less than half an hour, they saw more than a dozen corpses being carried out and laid out on the ground to one side.

"Major, here is Major Shokawa's body. The rest are all brothers from the team. We've all met them. Now they're all dead, and all of them had their throats slit. We suspect this was done by someone we know."

"None of the people here put up a fight; they died extremely quickly!"

"Not only that..."

These plainclothes officers conducted autopsies and reported their findings.

Ozawa was completely devastated, especially after seeing the corpses. He clearly hadn't expected them all to be dead, and to die so suddenly.

He immediately returned to the house, picked up the phone, and dialed. "Hello, General, the bodies of Shao Chuan and the others have all been found. They were all buried under the grass in the courtyard. They were all killed with a single blow, without any resistance or fight back."

"idiot!"

Upon hearing this news, Tu Feiyuan became even more upset and even slammed down the phone.

Xiaoze, on the other end, was also startled, and he slammed the phone on the table in his hand.

He picked up the phone again and heard a series of dial tones, which relieved him.

"Major, shall we take all these bodies back?"

"No, we burned them all down somewhere. In name, they've returned to their homeland, back to China!"

"Hi!"

Upon hearing this, his subordinates understood immediately and knew what to do.

After all, this kind of situation is quite common, and internal struggles still exist.

……

Inside Jing'an Temple.

Several monks were sitting in the main hall, constantly reciting Buddhist scriptures.

"Namo Ami..."

As the scriptures were chanted, a peaceful atmosphere filled the entire hall, as if the hall had gained a kind of Buddhist serenity.

In the very center of the main hall, Zhang Tianhao knelt like an ordinary pilgrim, his eyes filled with a Buddhist-like light.

In the ethereal state of mind, a strange aura emerged, and the original irritability and bloodlust gradually subsided.

Or rather, it is slowly dissipating.

After all, he killed more than 100,000 Japanese soldiers in one go. That's more than 100,000 people. With so many deaths, it's not really suitable for him to do that, given his temperament.

Even though things had calmed down considerably with the Second Army, the rage in his heart hadn't completely dissipated, which was why he came to Jing'an Temple today.

"Clan leader, your mind is always racing, your heart is in turmoil. The main problem is that you haven't let go of your obsessions. I hope you will let go of everything, convert to Buddhism, and cleanse yourself of your sins."

Zhang Tianhao knelt there, still saying nothing, and the faint smell of blood on his body seemed to be his natural scent.

"donor……"

Listening to the abbot chanting sutras and giving advice, Zhang Tianhao finished reciting the sutras one last time in his heart before raising his head.

Suddenly, the entire hall seemed to be bathed in sunlight, and everything was changing, as if Zhang Tianhao himself was such a sunny person.

It was completely different from the one that had been filled with the stench of blood just now.

"Abbot, it seems you've misunderstood. I am a doctor, and my job is to perform surgeries in the hospital every day to save lives."

“I’m in surgery for more than 12 hours a day, and I need to perform at least 20 surgeries every day. How can I possibly get rid of the smell of blood on me?”

"They say that Buddha helps those who are destined to be saved, but I am not one of those destined. I am just a doctor, a passerby, someone who needs a place to rest my soul."

“I am still me, I am not someone else. I ask you to perform this ritual so that my heart can be more peaceful and I can better devote myself to saving lives.”

"I am just an ordinary person. I can govern people in small matters and govern the country in large matters. But I just prefer a simple and quiet life."

"Clan leader!"

At this moment, the abbot looked at Zhang Tianhao, whose aura had completely subsided, opened his mouth, but ultimately said nothing more.

"Clan leader, the old monk Zhangmu has passed away."

"You're too kind!" Zhang Tianhao returned the gesture with a Buddhist bow. (End of Chapter)
