After ten years undercover, I'm giving up.

At the same time, Chen Yongren's emotions suddenly became unsettled.

For so many years, he always believed that he was the most crucial and most secretive pawn in Huang Zhicheng's hands.

But now someone suddenly jumps out and tells him that Huang Zhicheng had another trick up his sleeve.

This feeling...

This is so outrageous it makes you want to curse!

On the other end of the phone, Ma Zhichao's voice continued.

"I just saw the news, and you weren't mentioned in the report."

"So I'm guessing you're probably like me, someone the police planted around Han Chen."

Who is your upline?

Chen Yongren did not answer immediately.

He fell silent.

Ma Zhichao didn't press further, simply saying, "Never mind, you don't have to tell me if you don't want to."

"But now the situation is very wrong."

"The new person I've taken over here is called Wu Shaoxiong. This guy is the kind of person who only thinks about taking credit and doesn't care about anyone else's life or death."

Chen Yongren: "!!!!!"

Wu Shaoxiong?

Isn't this his new person in charge?

In that instant, Chen Yongren was almost convinced.

If Ma Zhichao wasn't an undercover agent, he couldn't have connected with Wu Shaoxiong so quickly.

It's even less likely that they would accurately say the name.

Ma Zhichao continued, "Now Han Chen is gone, Sha Qiang ran away, and Dilu ran away too."

"Of the few truly core people around Han Chen, only you and I are still in Hong Kong."

"The police need to report back, and the citizens outside are also waiting for the results."

"Do you think they might try to make us scapegoats in this case?"

Chen Yongren fell silent again.

In fact, a similar thought had already flashed through his mind while he was flipping through the newspaper.

He just never wanted to think about the worst-case scenario.

"Chao, what should we do now?"

At this moment, Chen Yongren was truly flustered.

Ma Zhichao lowered his voice and said in a deep tone, "We must have evidence."

"Evidence that proves we are undercover police officers."

"Once they erase our identity information from the system, we will no longer be police officers carrying out our duties, but criminals in the Han Chen Group."

"Unfortunately, I don't have anything to prove it right now."

"I wonder if you have any there?"

Chen Yongren shook his head with a wry smile.

"I don't have any either."

He never imagined things would fall apart like this.

So from the very beginning, he never prepared a way out for himself.

Ma Zhichao immediately said, "Since we're both empty-handed, we can only join forces to find a solution."

"No matter what, we need to get something to prove our identity first."

Chen Yongren asked, "What's your plan?"

Ma Zhichao said, "The simplest and fastest way is to record it."

"Take the initiative to contact Wu Shaoxiong and find a way to get him to admit that you are an undercover agent and record the conversation."

"Success would be great, but if it doesn't, it's okay, we'll think of another way."

"You try it once."

"I'll call back and check it out after you've tried it."

Chen Yongren was silent for a moment, then finally nodded: "Okay."

Ma Zhichao's tone became more serious: "I hope we can both pull through this time and return to the police force with our heads held high."

Chen Yongren held the phone, and after a few seconds, he suddenly whispered, "Ah Chao..."

Ma Zhichao asked, "What's wrong?"

Chen Yongren's voice was a little hoarse: "Thank you."

Ma Zhichao chuckled lightly: "No need for such formalities. We're all people thrown into the darkness, so we're brothers too."

Chen Yongren's eyes flickered slightly.

"Yeah, bro."

Ma Zhichao added, "If you can really pass smoothly, I'll tell you some more good news."

Chen Yongren asked, "What news?"

Ma Zhichao smiled faintly: "It's news that might be more important to you than putting your police uniform back on."

The call was immediately disconnected.

Ma Zhichao put down the receiver and thought for a moment.

That's about all we can do right now.

Let Chen Yongren go and sound out Wu Shaoxiong's reaction first.

Then, he turned to Tin Yeung Si beside him and ordered, "Arrange for two people to keep a close eye on Ng Siu Hung at the Yau Tsim Police Station."

"Notify me immediately if he does anything unusual."

Tian Yangsi nodded: "Understood."

Ma Zhichao added, "Also, bring a camera."

"If you don't have one, go buy one right away."

"Ideally, it should be the kind that allows for zooming in from a distance."

Tian Yangsi responded again, "Yes, boss."

This is the biggest difference between Ma Zhichao and Chen Yongren.

Ma Zhichao has cards in his hand.

He had recordings, manpower, and a group of knives who were absolutely loyal to him.

But what about Chen Yongren?

Alone.

They didn't even have a single card to prove their identity.

If he's really pushed to the brink, all he'll have left to fight for is his life.

Oh.

Wu Shaoxiong.

I'd like to see how you plan to act next.

……

……

After hanging up Ma Zhichao's call, Chen Yongren sat alone for a long time without moving.

After thinking for a long time, he got up and made some necessary arrangements.

Once everything was ready, he picked up the phone and dialed Wu Shaoxiong's number.

The call was answered quickly.

"Officer Wu..."

Chen Yongren had just opened his mouth when he faintly heard the low noise of a vehicle driving on the other side.

"Chen Yongren!"

Wu Shaoxiong's voice soon came from the other end of the phone.

……

At the same time.

Inside the communications vehicle of the Criminal Intelligence Division.

Wu Shaoxiong winked at Liu Jianming.

Liu Jianming immediately understood his meaning, quickly activated the equipment, and began to track Chen Yongren's location based on the call signal.

Not long after, Liu Jianming raised his hand and gestured a number.

fifteen.

If we can delay for another fifteen seconds, we can pinpoint the other party's location.

In order to ensure the success of this operation and to provide a satisfactory explanation to his superiors, Wu Shaoxiong did not try to take all the credit this time.

He specifically brought in Liu Jianming, an intelligence expert, to work with him.

Liu Jianming was already very sensitive about the remaining people in Han Chen Group.

The two sides hit it off immediately and cooperated exceptionally smoothly.

Seeing that Liu Jianming had finished preparing, Wu Shaoxiong felt a little more at ease.

Then, he asked in a deep voice over the phone, "Where are you right now?"

Instead of announcing his location, Chen Yongren cut straight to the point: "Inspector Wu, you told me last time that once Han Chen's case was over, you would arrange for me to return to the police force."

"Can I rejoin the team now?"

Liu Jianming's fingers, which were operating the equipment, suddenly paused.

A storm raged within him.

What the hell!

Chen Yongren is actually an undercover police officer?!

Wu Shaoxiong also fell silent for a moment.

However, he quickly evaded the question and instead asked, "Chen Yongren, where did Dilu run off to? Do you have any news?"

"If you really want to get out of here sooner, tell me where the others are."

He deliberately slowed down his pace when he spoke.

Beside him, Liu Jianming immediately gave him a new gesture.

Nine seconds.

Nine seconds left to complete the location.

On the other end of the phone, Chen Yongren's heart sank lower and lower.

Wu Shaoxiong did not directly answer the question about returning to the team, but instead tried to evade the issue and delay the time.

What does this tell us?

This suggests that Ma Zhichao's judgment is very likely correct.

Wu Shaoxiong, their new boss, might really be planning to sell them off to cover up the financial losses in the case.

Even so, Chen Yongren still harbored a sliver of hope.

"I don't know exactly where Dilu is."

"However, given his personality, he is most likely to go to Thailand."

Wu Shaoxiong immediately replied, "Where's Sha Qiang?"

Six seconds.

Chen Yongren said, "He's already gone."

"But he probably won't go to Thailand. He's not that brave; he wouldn't dare go there."

At this point, Chen Yongren brought the topic back to the present.

"Inspector Wu, about my return to the police station..."

Wu Shaoxiong continued to drag him along: "And Ma Zhichao. Do you know where he is now...?"

Chen Yongren: "..."

At this moment, an uncontrollable rage finally surged from the bottom of Chen Yongren's heart.

two seconds.

beep-

The call was abruptly disconnected.

Wu Shaoxiong held the receiver, and was stunned for a moment.

beep-

All I could hear was the busy tone after the line was disconnected.

The next second, Wu Shaoxiong suddenly realized what was happening, and his face instantly turned ugly.

"not good!"

"Chen Yongren has realized we're stalling for time!"

Although he couldn't figure out for a moment where Chen Yongren had noticed the flaw.

But his intuition told him that the undercover agent must have become suspicious.

He immediately turned to look at Liu Jianming.

Liu Jianming remained expressionless and gave him an OK sign.

"It's locked."

"Although it was a little late, I still made it."

After saying that, Liu Jianming pushed a piece of paper with an address written on it over.

Even better.

The location on the note wasn't far from the communications vehicle where they were currently located.
