Spy War: My Cheat Code is a Rat

"Alright, Xiao Jie."

Finally, Lu Chen spoke, pressing down Liu Jie's raised knife hand, looking at the man pointing a pistol at him, and speaking calmly.

"Making a scene will not benefit anyone. If you don't recognize me as the director, you can leave. Director Huang is already paralyzed and can be considered a cripple. You can go to the hospital and stay with him."

Lu Chen spoke calmly, displaying remarkable composure in the face of the gun.

Upon hearing Lu Chen's words, and glancing at the group of thugs surrounding them with knives, the man gritted his teeth, lowered his gun, and with a wave of his hand, led the group out of the military police station.

"Let's go."

After they had completely left the military police station, Lu Chen calmly wiped the sweat from his forehead. It was impossible not to be nervous when a gun was pointed at him; he was just putting on a brave face.

"Xiao Jie, from now on you don't need to listen to anyone else's orders, only mine. I have to go out for a bit now, so keep an eye on things and make sure no one causes trouble."

After speaking, Lu Chen looked at the group of people in front of him and spoke again.

"You've done the same thing before, and you still do it now."

After saying that, Lu Chen walked out of the military police station. He was now heading to the French Concession. Huang Dayong and Adrian still had a business deal to discuss, and he needed to go and explain it to them.

"We have to sabotage this deal."

Lu Chen walked into the French Concession, found a secluded spot, and put his hand into his pocket.

"Rat Five, Rat Six, take some rats and go to that warehouse and move all the supplies to this warehouse."

Put Rat Five and Rat Six back into the sewers and have them move all the logistical supplies to their warehouse in the French Concession.

After doing all this, Lu Chen arrived at the French restaurant where Huang Dayong and Adrian had talked last time.

"Lu, we meet again."

Adrian looked somewhat displeased; he had arrived long ago and had been waiting for quite some time.

Lu Chen ignored his expression and sat down before speaking.

"Mr. Adrian, I regret to inform you that Director Huang was shot last night and is now incapacitated. I have no idea where those logistical supplies are, so I am very sorry."

As he spoke, Lu Chen stood up solemnly and bowed to him.

Without waiting for Adrian's reaction, he stood up and walked straight out the door.

"Damn Kuroda."

Ignoring Adrian's shouts behind him, Lu Chen gritted his teeth, one hand in his pocket.

Rat One had just reminded himself that someone was following him, and it was a Japanese person.

It must be Huang Dayong's matter that made Kuroda suspicious of him again, and he sent people to follow him again. He doesn't know how long they've been following him.

"Let's go to Tegaite."

After entering the Chinese-controlled area, they first went back to the military police headquarters to put their guns away before heading towards the Japanese Special Higher Police.

On the way, Lu Chen found an opportunity to have Shu San bring a small rat, put a bugging device on it, and then let him hide it in his sleeve to avoid the Japanese army's search.

"Colonel Kuroda, how is Director Huang?"

Upon arriving at Kuroda's office, Lu Chen looked worried. At the same time, he let the rat in his hand crawl out and hide the listening device in Kuroda's office.

"He's ruined. He won't be able to speak anymore and is still in a coma."

Kuroda stood by the window and succinctly explained Huang Dayong's current situation.

"How is the military police now?"

Kuroda turned around and looked at Lu Chen, his eyes scrutinizing him.

"I have now fully taken over the military police force, and it will operate just as it did when Director Huang was in charge."

Lu Chen lowered his head, avoiding looking Kuroda in the eye, and quickly responded.

"Okay, keep a close eye on it and continue searching for morphine."

After Kuroda finished speaking, he sat down in a chair and stopped talking. Lu Chen agreed and then tactfully left Kuroda's office, closing the door behind him.

"morphine?"

Walking on the road, Lu Chen thought about the task that Kuroda had just given him. He had given the Japanese army a thousand morphine last time, and it was already used up so quickly.

"It must be because the fighting on the front lines is intense, and the Japanese army needs more morphine."

Having figured out the reason, Lu Chen went straight to the military police headquarters. Morphine? He could only instruct a group of his men; he couldn't possibly go looking for it himself.

"Brother Chen, you're back? A woman is looking for you."

Upon seeing Lu Chen return, Liu Jie approached with a woman.

Looking for oneself?

Lu Chen frowned. Which woman was looking for him?

When Lu Chen saw the woman clearly, he realized that she was the Chinese doctor who had given him morphine last time.

"You're looking for me? What do you want?"

Lu Chen brought the woman into Huang Dayong's office. Huang Dayong died immediately, and Lu Chen took over the office for himself.

Looking at the woman in front of me, her face still bore a burn scar, and she was covered in soot. Her white coat was stained with soot and had turned gray.

"I...I have nowhere to go."

Shen Ruoqiu clenched her clothes, not daring to look at Lu Chen. She never thought that she would have this day, coming to Lu Chen with nowhere else to turn.

My belly is slightly protruding; I'm several months pregnant and my pregnancy is starting to show.

I don't know how the Japanese army found out, but they managed to find their location. Some of the organization members fled, while others were captured.

The Japanese army also stationed a large number of soldiers at the entrance to Shanghai, and everyone entering and leaving had to have their identity verified, so she couldn't get out.

With no food, no water, and no place to stay, she didn't know where she could go. While hiding in the Chinese territory, she saw Lu Chen sitting in a car.

Having followed the car to this place, he now felt a pang of regret upon seeing Lu Chen.

"Don't know where to go?"

Looking at Shen Ruoqiu, Lu Chen frowned, a sense of doubt rising in his heart. Could this person be an informant planted by Kuroda?

"Then you can stay in the military police."

If that's really the case, then it's better to let her stay here and put Kuroda's mind at ease.

If Lu Chen remembered correctly, this woman seemed to be a doctor, and he had already made up his mind to have his own power.

She'll inevitably get hurt in the future, so let her stay here; she might be useful someday.

"Is...is it really okay?"

Shen Ruoqiu looked at Lu Chen. Seeing Lu Chen in the military police office, any normal person could tell that he held a high position in the military police. Shen Ruoqiu did not expect that he would actually accept her.

"Medical care is so expensive these days. If you stay, you can help the brothers get medical treatment."

"What's your name?"

Lu Chen smiled slightly, appearing very amiable.

"My name is Shen Ruoqiu."

"My name is Lu Chen."

After introducing themselves, Lu Chen noticed Shen Ruoqiu's obviously disproportionately large belly and asked her a question.

"Are you pregnant?"

"Yes, it's been three months."

When the child was mentioned, a smile appeared on Shen Ruoqiu's face, but when she thought that the child in her belly was Lu Chen's, a blush appeared on her face.

Why are you blushing?

Seeing Shen Ruoqiu's shy expression, Lu Chen was completely baffled. Why was she blushing?

"Xiao Jie, go and prepare a room with a lock, get all the daily necessities ready, and also get her some food."

"Okay, Brother Chen."

He called Liu Jie into his office, handed Shen Ruoqiu over to him for arrangements, and as he left the office, Shen Ruoqiu kept looking back at Lu Chen.
