Chapter 131: Even With a Gun, You Won’t Be Able to Die!
“The female agent wants to see me? That’s fine, let’s go then.”
Wang Chao had been thinking about the elite expert of the Ministry of State Security, the “National Arhat” Duan Guochao. If he was the number one disciple of Shaolin, then that was clear evidence that he had some skill to his name.
Wang Chao was quite curious on this powerful codename of his, “National Arhat” in particular.
“I wish to see what kind of expert he is, for him to take on the codename of National Arhat!” However, with the leadership wishing to take revenge, then this upcoming fight between experts will be merciless. I cannot stay my hand, each strike must hold the intent to kill, though I must do that anyways to make certain of victory.”
Wang Chao’s eyes shined as he looked to commissar Yang.
“There’s nothing to worry about!” Commissar Yang exhaled before smiling, “Whatever happens this time, I will take responsibility for! Just make sure you don’t kill yourself! Fuck, I’ve been holding in this breath for far too long! Do your best, if any problem ever happens, the higher ups will make sure to take the blame for it. Wait and see for tomorrow, you’ll be able to see their overweening attitude then. I can guarantee that you won’t be able to handle it either.”
Commissar Yang let out a string of expletives as he spoke, showing his hatred that he held in his heart before walking out of the room.
“Yanan, did you see that? It seems our hatred for the Ministry of State Security runs quite deep.” Wang Chao turned to look at Lin Yanan.
Lin Yanan unfurled both hands in a clearly unhappy expression. “The son of an old friend of commissar Yang had three of his ribs broken after being swung by someone in the Ministry of State Security in the comprehensive practice matches. Even now, he’s still bedridden. Last year even, we had a few of our members crippled. Our group was originally established to act as a check to the Ministry of Public Security. Our control over them is something they’ll naturally not accept. Even I had my calf shot at by a gun of theirs.”
“Your practice matches uses actual ammunition to practice?” Wang Chao was amazed.
“It’s not exactly live ammunition, but high powered rubber bullets.” Lin Yanan explained. “If we don’t use actual ammunition, we won’t ever be able to learn. The casualty and injury quotient in the army, what use would that be then? Russia, America, Japan, and the other western countries have an even strict training than our country.”
“Ah, I understand now. Even for those who practice martial arts requires a bit of cruelty. Without the threatening stimulation of death, one will never be able to learn and will become a mess when in an actual fight.” Wang Chao nodded. “However, men from our own country are hard to come by. You understand martial arts. You understand how fights between experts go, and how life or death is understood in it. So why is it the organization is having me play the strict cop and take revenge? If something really does happen, wouldn’t either one of us become a wasted time of nurturing? For the sake of revenge, we lose a person, that cannot be worth it, can it?”
Lin Yanan looked at Wang Chao for a good moment before silently shaking her head, “Wang Chao! You don’t understand. In our population of 1.3 billion people, what type of talent is unattainable to us….let’s speak of this later….”
With that, Lin Yanan’s lips began to quaver for a moment as her eyes looked down without another word.
“I understand….” Wang Chao sighed before standing up to pat Lin Yanan on her shoulder. “When in the Jianghu, one cannot move around freely. One should never regard themselves to be important forever, after all, we are merely small figures floating about in this world. What you are trying to say, I have long since understood since my battle with Zhang Wei. Let’s go and see what that American spy wants.”
The rooms in the army camps were were made from reinforced concrete and were used to temporarily lock up the important prisoners. There were high walls with machine guns mounted on top and specialized soldiers standing guard all around. All in all, the place seemed as if it was a miniature prison.
“Lieutenant colonel Wang, colonel Lin! The female spy is locked up in here.”
With a crashing sound, the thick iron doors opened up as two gun-wielding soldiers came out to salute Wang Chao and Lin Yanan.
At this moment, Wang Chao and Lin Yanan had already changed into a brand new military uniform. On Wang Chao’s epaulet was an insignia with two bars and two stars, signifying his rank as a lieutenant colonel. He was only one for now, but if he were to manage this next mission and get promoted, then he would possibly become a colonel.
After changing into the military uniform and walking with the air of a martial art master. Combined with the suit, this air had made him seem quite extraordinary. Even those with barely no eyesight would be able to tell: this was a person who commandeered power.
As the doors opened, the interrogation room could be seen from within. The room was split into two parts by the iron bars. Sitting on a chair behind the bars was the fair-haired and pretty American agent.
This American female agent wore handcuffs with gauze around her legs that gave off the faint scent of medicine from the wounds she had on her.
On the table in front of her was several pieces of bread, juice, and other beverages and provisions. Her expression seemed quite well, and her clothes were prim and proper. She hadn’t the look of someone who was mistreated, on the contrary, she looked like she was given proper treatment, food, and medical attention.
“You’re a part of the Chinese army? A lieutenant colonel even?! How! Oh my god, have my eyes gone blind? Don’t tell me….it has to be! You’ve joined hands with each other!”
When the female agent saw Wang Chao enter, her eyes had an unbelievable light to them and her mouth had dropped open into an O-shape.
