Chapter 640: 395, A good play _2

Shadow chuckled, “Don’t you find it even more interesting now?”

Qing Ye spat the lollipop out of his mouth onto the ground, “Yeah, freaking fascinating.”

…

…

On Struggle Road, in District Five.

The detectives of Group Seven had already changed into plain clothes, spreading out to various places along the street, pretending to be unrelated passersby.

However, they weren’t the only ones pretending to be ordinary people.

Just as Yang Xuyang found a mechanical prosthesis clinic and was about to have a look inside, he saw Chen Sai and Chen Zhen, inspectors from Intelligence Group Six, inside seriously inquiring about the functions of the mechanical limbs…

The two men also saw him, and the atmosphere turned awkward instantly, but they continued to act as if they did not know each other.

The next moment, as Yang Xuyang turned around, he was startled to see Li Yunqu, an inspector from Group Two, across the street watching the scene with great interest, seemingly wanting to see just how awkward Chen Sai would get.

But as Yang Xuyang turned his head, his eyes met Li Yunqu’s; Li Yunqu hurriedly coughed and turned to look elsewhere.

“Boss,” Yang Xuyang said in the communication channel, unable to hold back his laughter and tears, “Isn’t this supposed to be a secret operation? Why do I feel like everyone from Intelligence Department One is on this street?”

Qing Chen looked calmly across at Jindai Changming, responding, “Normal.”

Today, almost all members of Intelligence Group Seven had emerged, which was obviously not common.

As a result, other intelligence groups from Intelligence Department One had also nearly come out in full force; they were too curious and wanted to know exactly what or whom Group Seven was going to trade with Deer Island tonight.

Instead of waiting to get second-hand intelligence, it made more sense to observe first-hand information directly.

But this was exactly what Qing Chen had hoped to see; he had instructed Qing Hua to lead almost all the detectives to boldly walk out of Intelligence Department One, specifically to lure out the other intelligence groups.

The murkier the waters tonight, the better.

At that moment, Qing Chen’s phone in his pocket rang. He took it out to see that it was Shadow calling; the person had a thick layer of amusement in their voice: “The people sent here to protect this transaction got intercepted by some assassins who came out of nowhere on their way here, you might have to be more cautious on your own.”

Qing Chen: “Can’t things ever go according to plan???”

He was about to say something, but saw that Shadow had already hung up the phone.

The other party didn’t seem to want to listen to him perform; they just wanted to quietly be an observer, watching the drama of tonight’s events.

Then, a person in a black coat approached Qing Chen and asked, “Are you Qing Chen, Inspector for Group Seven? I’m Pu Changhao from Deer Island; is the trade happening now?”

Qing Chen looked at Pu Changhao, “I am Qing Chen. Where’s the person?”

The black-coated Pu Changhao looked deeply at him, “I’ve brought the person. Where’s mine?”

After finishing his words, he turned and pointed towards a black business vehicle parked nearby, its windows thoroughly obscured.

Following Pu Changhao’s gesture, someone inside the vehicle pulled open the door, pushing a man who appeared haggard and weary to show his face.

It was not Jindai Yasuhara, but Qing Zhou.

This was an intelligence officer from Deer Island who had been arrested up north quite a while ago.

Qing Hua was taken aback by this scene, wasn’t it supposed to be a trade for Jindai Yasuhara? Why was it Qing Zhou?

It wasn’t that Qing Zhou wasn’t important, but this was completely different from the plan.

Qing Hua looked at Qing Chen, but was shocked to find that the latter’s expression showed no surprise, as if he had known about this all along.

Qing Chen looked at Pu Changhao, now that the person had been brought, the trade was inevitable.

As he was pondering over it, his phone rang again: Qing Zhun had sent a message, “Jindai Yasuhara secured.”

In fact, from the beginning, Qing Chen never intended to publicly trade Jindai Yasuhara, nor did Deer Island agree to a public trade.

Among them, Qing Chen’s reason was that if Jindai Yasuhara were to appear, it could potentially drive the Jindai family into madness, and they could immediately guess what Qing’s Family intended to do with Jindai Yasuhara.

At that point, the only thing the Jindai family would consider doing was not rescuing, but killing.

In chaos, it is easy to kill someone and hard to protect someone; a dead Jindai Yasuhara held no value for Qing’s Family.

Therefore, Qing Chen used a public trade as a diversion, drawing all the intelligence officers from City Number 10 to Struggle Road, and then leaving the real trade to be completed by Shadow.

Deer Island’s reason for not wanting a public trade was even simpler; they did not want the Jindai family to know that they had captured someone as important as Jindai Yasuhara…

This trade was a drama where Qing’s Family and Deer Island, unbeknownst to each other, played their parts; what Deer Island had to do was simply to give up an extra Qing Zhou, which was a good deal for them.

At this moment, the intelligence officers littered along the street saw Qing Zhou; some recognized him, some did not.

But no matter what, if Qing’s Family was only trading for Qing Zhou, then it was nothing noteworthy at all.

Not the least bit thrilling.

It was like someone started a story with, “In Orchard Village, there was a beautiful widow…”

They began with that story and whetted your appetite; then, as you were on tenterhooks, they continued, “This beautiful widow, she had athlete’s foot.”

You would immediately feel underwhelmed and even disgusted.

Qing Chen was willing to come to Struggle Road to draw fire for Qing Zhun precisely because he knew that everyone would lose interest in the trade once they saw Qing Zhou.

The only thing that needed vigilance was this.

What if the Jindai Clan, having made the trip, thought, “We’re here already.”

If they figured, “Since we’re here, might as well kill off the trouble-making Inspector of Group Seven.”
