Gu Ao curled his lip in disdain.

"I haven't received any specific notification from the Japanese National Treasure yet. How did you know?"

As soon as he finished speaking, a message from within Dragon Shadow came through his phone.

Upon seeing the pictures, he was immediately filled with shock.

"This...this really is Japan's national treasure? How did it end up here?"

Chu Yang showed Gu Ao the video of Wu Jingui and Mi Tao's confessions.

Gu Ao was immediately enraged.

"Those bastards are all the same, not a single one of them is any good. Aren't they obviously trying to harm people?"

Chu Yang patted the back of the jade Buddha.

"There's a time bomb here!"

Gu Ao retreated two zhang with a "whoosh".

Chu Yang rolled his eyes at him with disdain. "Dragon Shadow? Commander?"

Gu Ao finally came to his senses. "Damn it! You took it apart?"

Chu Yang scoffed, "Nonsense!"

Gu Ao's expression turned serious. "They framed the border patrol inspector and even planted a bomb! These Japanese are trying to 'pull out a thorn in our side'."

Just then, Jiang Tiangang rushed in.

"Master Chu, the brother you asked me to send to the consulate to keep watch is calling. The chairman got into the car with that Watanabe Chinatsu, and they don't seem to be under any coercion, but I still can't get through to him on the phone."

Chu Yang thought for a moment, "Start preparing immediately according to my previous plan. They should arrive soon. Xiao Gu, you go and prepare too. Take some men and keep watch nearby. Watanabe Chinatsu will definitely call you when she arrives. If she asks you to inspect the jade Buddha, she probably wants you dead too."

Gu Ao's lips twitched a few times. "Alright, alright, I understand!"

At 11:00 a.m., there were still ten minutes left before the original timed explosion.

A black embassy car was parked in front of Gu Bao Zhai.

Gu Ao, who had already received the notification, waited at the door.

He received orders from the garrison commander to fully cooperate with the Japanese embassy in apprehending the criminals who stole national treasures, and to kill them without exception if necessary, so as not to affect the friendly relations between the two countries.

At this moment, Chu Yang was sitting on a stone stool at the entrance of Gu Bao Zhai, observing Watanabe Chinatsu as she got out of the car.

Wearing a well-tailored suit, her shoulder-length wavy hair danced with her confident steps.

"Wow! She's a really pretty Japanese woman."

Chinatsu Watanabe smiled and nodded at Kou Ao, "Thank you for your hard work, Commander."

Gu Ao nodded in acknowledgment. "I wonder what Miss Watanabe wants the Dragon Shadow Guards to do?"

He doesn't completely believe Chu Yang's conspiracy theory anymore and wants to probe indirectly to find out more.

Chinatsu Watanabe slightly curved her lips into a smile.

"The truth has already come out. Just now, Border Inspection Commissioner Li Heihu went to the embassy to surrender and admitted that he had sent a border inspection team to transport the national treasure jade Buddha from our cargo ship to his Gubaozhai."

Gu Ao frowned and asked, "Since he stole the jade Buddha, why did he turn himself in?"

Chinatsu Watanabe simply smiled, showing no intention of explaining.

"Why don't we listen to what Inspector Li has to say?"

As soon as he finished speaking, the other door of the car opened, and Li Heihu and Sato Jiro got out.

Sato Jiro wore a hood and a black veil that covered his scarred face, which had been gnawed by the blood gu. He walked with a stooped posture, clearly still affected by the groin area where Chi Ming had struck him.

Li Heihu strode up to Gu Ao and spoke expressionlessly:

"I ordered the border patrol team to steal the Jade Buddha, Japan's national treasure. I am guilty!"

Gu Ao was immediately stunned.

Having worked as a Dragon Shadow Guard for so many years and solved many major cases, I have never seen a confession like this before.

Chu Yang raised an eyebrow and immediately realized that something was wrong with Li Heihu.

"Damn! This Japanese woman's got some skills; she even knows illusion magic?"

So-called hallucinations are the use of drugs and specific methods of mind control to suppress a person's mind.

Li Heihu is clearly under a hallucination spell.

Chinatsu Watanabe checked the time. "Commander, I have no law enforcement authority in the Great Xia. I would appreciate it if you could take the criminals to the explosion site to examine the stolen national treasure, the Jade Buddha."

Chu Yang also checked the time on his phone; there were still seven minutes until the scheduled explosion.

Gu Ao was so angry that he wanted to slap Watanabe Chinatsu a few times. It was obvious that they wanted him and Li Heihu to be blown up together, provoking a conflict between the two countries.

Furthermore, he now has some doubts about Qian Shunkai, the garrison commander who assigned him the task.

"Ms. Watanabe, I think we should go in together."

Chinatsu Watanabe narrowed her phoenix eyes, and her expression immediately turned cold.

"Does the Commander intend to damage relations between the two countries? I can call the Garrison Commander right now. The criminals have already confessed, yet your Dragon Shadow forces don't even dare to go and inspect the stolen goods."

This reason was indeed irresistible to Gu Ao.

Just then, a petite figure appeared, wearing large sunglasses that almost covered half of her face and a hood.

"Excuse me! Excuse me! The ice cream is melting!"

Accompanied by a tingling, whirring sound, the petite figure bumped into the unsteady Sato Jiro.

"Baka! It's you, you big Xia pig! I'm going to kill you!"

Sato Jiro, who was already in a bad mood, recognized Tangtang and immediately became a powder keg.

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry! Please! Don't hit me!"

The petite Tangtang kept bowing and apologizing, begging for forgiveness.

This attracted the attention of passersby.

"These Japanese are too arrogant!"

"Bullying a little girl and even insulting us, the people of Great Xia?"

"Damn it! Let's fuck him!"

Many young people were itching to teach Sato Jiro a lesson.

Fearing a conflict, Gu Ao quickly stepped forward, stopping the indignant onlookers, and clasped his hands in greeting:

"Dragon Shadow is on duty! Please take cover!"

Upon hearing the words "Dragon Shadow," the people quickly retreated, none of them wanting to have anything to do with it.

Sato Jiro laughed loudly a few times: "You big pigs! You..."

Before he could finish his arrogant words, Watanabe Chinatsu moved, leaving afterimages in her place, and instantly appeared in front of Sato Jiro.

"Slap slap slap—!"

Three crisp slaps landed on Sato Jiro's face.

Sato Jiro stood obediently in place, bowed ninety degrees, and apologized: "I'm sorry! I was wrong!"

Chinatsu Watanabe bowed slightly to the passersby and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I apologize for my bodyguard's careless remarks."

After saying that, her sharp, knife-like gaze fell on Tangtang's face, but her expression was very kind: "Little girl, go on your way."

Tangtang shuddered, like a frightened child, and said, "Yes, thank you, Auntie!"

After saying that, she turned and ran.

Chinatsu Watanabe clenched her fists in anger, her knuckles cracking.

She glanced at the screen and saw that there were only five minutes left before the explosion.

"Commander, I have an important meeting this afternoon, please hurry."

Before Gu Ao could reply, she looked at Li Heihu.

"You, immediately take the commander to recover the stolen goods."

Li Heihu responded loudly, "Yes!"

Just as Gu Ao and Li Heihu were about to enter Gu Baozhai, Chu Yang, who was sitting on a stone stool, had already approached them.

Gu Ao didn't know what Chu Yang was going to do, but he was still afraid that this guy would cause trouble openly, so he quickly lowered his voice and said, "Why aren't you following the plan?"

Chu Yang completely ignored Gu Ao, a rigid and inflexible man, and grabbed Li Heihu's pulse with one hand.
