Spy Wars: Return of the Red Luan

Chapter 24: Survival is really hard

As Kawamoto Daisaku left Aoki Takashi's house and walked down the street, he kept thinking, what does this basement smell like? It's a bit sour and metallic! Where has he smelled this before?
What medicine has this smell?

It was already late at night when Daisaku Kawamoto returned to the headquarters, but he couldn't sleep!
This bomb killed Old Man Zhang. If I can't find the scapegoat and the leaker, my own fate will be in jeopardy!

If the base camp cannot withstand the pressure of public opinion, it is very likely that I will become a victim and be pushed out!
Sitting at his desk, Daisaku Kawamoto was thinking of countermeasures in his mind, his eyes looking at the newspapers scattered on the coffee table. On the newspapers were photos of the leaked planning plan that had just been published today!

"photo!!"

"Baga! Photos! That medicinal smell must be the smell of developer!"

Kawamoto Daisaku was so excited that he wanted to go to Aoki Qiao's house to check again! He ignored his own danger!

Kawamoto Daisaku rushed downstairs, out the door, ran to Aoki Qiao's house, and knocked on the door! The whole process took 3 minutes!

Zhou Yongsu hadn't returned yet, and Chen Jiehua hadn't gone to bed yet. Hearing the voice of Kawamoto Daisaku, he felt strange. Just as he was about to open the door, that strange intuition struck him again!

Kawamoto Daisaku returned at this time. What did he discover?! But he couldn't help but open the door! He couldn't hesitate for even a second!

I can’t be bothered anymore, open the door first!

At this time, Kawamoto Daisaku was still in an excited state. He didn't think too much at all. He just wanted to verify whether the smell was the developer!
After entering the room, Kawamoto Daisaku glanced at Aoki Takashi who had his hands empty, and rushed directly to the basement. He pushed open the door, and a sour, pungent smell with a metallic taste that still lingered hit his face!

“It really is a developer!”

"あなたはSecret leakerだ!なぜなの!?" ("You are the leaker! Why!?")
Kawamoto Daisaku has finally been confirmed! He looks back while talking!
Chen Jiehua, who was following behind, confirmed after hearing the first half of Kawamoto's words that he was exposed!
So he reacted quickly, without hesitation, took out the scalpel, and the moment Kawamoto turned around, he used the Yinliu move to lift it up and then spin, directly slashing it towards Kawamoto's neck! A fatal blow!

Kawamoto Daisaku, whose carotid artery and trachea had been severed, opened his mouth but said nothing. He stared at Aoki Qiao in astonishment, his last thought, "He was clearly unarmed just now! He was so careless! Aoki, who are you?"

After killing Kawamoto Daisaku, Chen Jiehua moved sideways to avoid the spurting blood, and then in one go, he put the corpse into the space!
There's blood all over the wall in the basement, and it needs to be cleaned up first!

Chen Jiehua first boiled hot water, then wiped the blood carefully with a towel, and searched bit by bit with a lit candle. It took him two hours to clean up the bloodstains inside and outside the basement door. He closed the basement door, walked out, imitated Kawamoto Daisaku's actions, rushed to the basement, and pushed open the door!
A sour, pungent smell with a metallic taste that still lingered in my face!

So that's it! The developer is exposed!

Next, I need to deal with the smell of the developer as quickly as possible! Damn it! How can I get rid of it? Now it's mixed with the smell of blood, which is even more troublesome!
What medicines have a strong, sour, and metallic smell? Waiting online, urgent!

"Potidone! Yes, iodine!"

However, the basement layout cannot be changed drastically, and the smell cannot be too strong, otherwise if the military police come again, the inconsistency in a short period of time will definitely alert the military police!
Damn it, we can’t kill all the military police! Killing the military police is like playing an open card. I really have no choice but to flee!
The key is where to find the two gendarmes who entered the basement!
Although Chen Jiehua was a little discouraged, he thought he couldn't give up, so he got a bottle of alcohol and let it fall and shatter in the corner. Then he piled three boxes of alcohol in the corner, opened the door to the basement, and then opened the door to the room to let the cold wind blow in!

Blow as much as you can!

The wind blew continuously until dawn. Chen Jiehua saw someone was about to pass by, so he quickly closed the door and went back to bed. Lying in bed, Chen Jiehua couldn't sleep, his mind was analyzing rapidly!
"First, Kawamoto Daisaku must have smelled the developer in the basement during the first round. He didn't pay much attention to it at the time because it was filled with chemicals! But he must have had his suspicions at the time! Did he mention it to anyone on his way back?"

"Secondly, from the time Kawamoto Daisaku left this place to the time he returned and knocked on the door, less than an hour had passed! Who did he meet during that time? Who gave him the clue? Who saw him rush back alone?"

"Third, did Zhou Yongsu find Liu Junze?"

Since returning to China and landing, the system Hongluan left, and Chen Jiehua had no system help. He had to handle all things and layouts by himself. The choice of the house at the beginning and the mistake in the layout of the dark room brought him such a dangerous crisis!
Isn’t it difficult to survive?

In the morning, Qing Mu Qiao followed his usual routine and went to the restaurant he often visited to have breakfast. After breakfast, he continued to wander around the street!

On the other side, at around ten o'clock, Chief of Staff Saito Tsune still hadn't seen Kawamoto Daisaku, so he asked someone and ended up asking two military police. The military police said that the three men returned to the compound after leaving Aoki-kun's house, and Kawamoto-kun never came down after going upstairs!
This is strange! Saito, who noticed something unusual, personally tracked it down and found the guard on duty at the gate that night. The guard reported that after Colonel Kawamoto and the two military police came back, they went upstairs and stayed there until around midnight. Suddenly, they rushed downstairs and rushed out the door and never came back!
"After going upstairs, he rushed out the door after 12 o'clock and never came back! Kawamoto has always lived in the building and it is impossible for him to live outside!"

Saito turned around and asked the two military police who were following behind with nervous expressions, "Did you find anything unusual in Aoki's house?"
"I didn't find anything unusual. I checked the pharmacy, the back room, and the basement. There was nothing unusual, so I came back later!"

Saito Tsune returned to the building and walked to Kawamoto Daisaku's office on the third floor. He slowly looked around and saw the newspaper on the coffee table. It was a normal newspaper. I threw it yesterday. It seemed that I threw it in this place. He didn't move it, so it had nothing to do with this.

So, what did Kawamoto discover?
Or did he answer the phone and run away?

"Someone! Check the phone records in Kawamoto-kun's office!"

"Notify the Military Police Headquarters and search the entire city for Kawamoto!"

Then, Saito Tsune took two military police and walked towards Aoki Takashi's house!

After a five-minute walk, the three of them arrived at the store. The shopkeeper, Lao Mo, came out to greet them. Saito asked where Aoki had been.
"Are you looking for the boss? Normally, the boss would get up in the morning and go to the restaurant in East City for breakfast. I don't know where he goes after breakfast!"

The back room was locked. The shopkeeper didn't have the key, and the person with the key hadn't returned. Saito didn't want to just knock on the door, so he looked at the door and didn't see anything unusual, so he went back with the two military police!
Finally, when the military police found Aoki Takashi and took him back to the headquarters, it was already afternoon. Saito asked a few simple questions and didn't pursue the matter any further. After all, he had always been like this before, and it was not appropriate to suddenly investigate someone for not coming to work! The key point was that you had no evidence linking Aoki Takashi to Kawamoto's disappearance!

After checking the phone records, there was no call last night, which means he did not abscond after receiving the call!
The military police searched the entire city, but found no one alive, no body, and no record of him leaving the city.

Is this horse flying?

Saito can’t figure it out!
However, Saito thought of something: if he could fully utilize the "speed" of Aoki Pharmacy, wouldn't it be faster and more efficient to find people and things?
Do it as soon as you think of it! He immediately called Aoki Qiao over, "Aoki-kun, your big pharmacy runs fast, can you help find someone? Kawamoto-kun is missing, I want to see him alive or dead!"

It's no problem for me to help you find someone. I'll fully cooperate! Just don't go to my house!

　I'll wait until he finishes his big task before killing him. It won't affect the history at all!
