Shocking! The young educated youth had just arrived and was already clashing with spies.

Chapter 577 Having a weakness means you can't take any risks.

Zhou Yichen frowned as he looked at the people who were sneaking around and constantly scouting the surroundings not far away. His cold face was almost frozen.

Fortunately, when he clashed with Gao Ziyou, this man and his other followers were kicked out; otherwise, it wouldn't have been so easy for the Special Branch to solve the case so quickly.

Those spies really went to great lengths to target the Gao family, not even missing the most insignificant characters.

"Perhaps our initial investigation was too one-sided. It's not just the Gao family members; those other unknown figures are also formidable."

"How can you blame us? We've already done a great job by coming here halfway through. Pursuing perfection will only cause trouble for ourselves. If it doesn't work out, we'll just keep going!" Chu Xin disagreed with him. The enemy was too cunning. They should just keep fighting with them. There was no need to take on any more unnecessary mistakes.

These words were very much in line with Chu Xin's personality. Zhou Yichen couldn't help but smile and glance at her. The little girl was probably thinking of just beating everyone up right now.

Simple, direct, and fast!

The truly innocent person, unable to withstand the beatings, will cry and plead to prove their innocence.

However, he couldn't let her do something that would backfire. As a law enforcement officer, he should have a stronger sense of law and discipline.

"There's no rush. Let's follow along for now and see how many more people we can dig out."

Zhou Yichen changed the subject, deciding to hold back and wait and see.

Meanwhile, Xi Congliang had already led Gao Ziyou to a very remote garbage dump.

This area is located in the rural area east of Shuangqiaomen outside Yuhuamen. Even after workers moved in and started building houses, there weren't many people around.

As he ran, aside from the initial panic and staggering, he became more unhurried as he approached less populated areas, and even chose several more concealed routes while seemingly fleeing for his life.

Along the winding road, the Red Guards, who had never experienced hardship and were simply idle street urchins, were left far behind.

Gao Ziyou wasn't really a reckless man. Even before he sensed the danger, his hand had already quietly reached for his weapon.

Xi Congliang was unaware that he was at risk of being exposed and was still diligently carrying out his plan to lure the enemy deep into the territory.

From the moment he decided to take action against Gao Ziyou, he was prepared to be unable to extricate himself. After all, the Gao family was in a state of high alert, and his encouragement of Gao Ziyou to get Yu Jing out of the Central Special Branch was a well-thought-out plan.

After finally stepping into the completely deserted ruins, Xi Congliang immediately strode forward and nimbly disappeared into the distance with a few leaps.

A moment later, the rustling sound of footsteps crunching on dry branches and fallen leaves grew louder as they approached.

Gao Ziyou walked over cautiously, a dagger in one hand. By this time, dusk had fallen and his vision was beginning to be limited.

Taking advantage of a moment of inattention, Xi Congliang suddenly pounced out to capture him.

Gao Ziyou was no pushover either, as he was able to fight Zhou Yichen to a standstill. With his keen ears, he quickly rolled away to dodge, and at the same time, he thrust out his dagger.

A sharp, dark glint flashed in the darkness, and the next moment, sparks flew as metal clashed, then darkness returned.

It turned out that a sharp blade had suddenly appeared in Xi Congliang's hand. It was small but extremely sharp, and it was a scalpel.

Gao Ziyou glared at the gleaming scalpel and then looked at Xi Congliang, his eyes filled with a palpable hatred. "You really have a big problem. Tell me, are you specifically helping that bastard Gao Ziyang, or are you a spy like Yu Jing?"

Or rather, are you both?!

Xi Congliang snorted coldly, circled the scalpel around his finger, and then slashed it towards his neck.

Seeing this, Gao Ziyou also rushed forward, and the two quickly became evenly matched. The sound of blades clashing and the occasional sparks that flew during the fight looked quite cool to outsiders.

Chu Xin and Zhou Yichen followed their henchman leader, watching the show from the shadows. Their target wasn't yet exposed, so they naturally needed to continue hiding.

Earlier, Chu Xin told Grandpa Gao that Yu Jing and Master Tu would be escorted back to Kyoto immediately. Later, the Special Branch discovered that someone was monitoring them, so they adjusted their plans. As a result, no one has seen Yu Jing and Master Tu since, and no one knows where they are.

Eventually, someone couldn't resist revealing their true colors regarding what was so mysterious and unknown.

What no one knew was that the two had indeed left Ning City and were now imprisoned in the Central Special Branch prison in Kyoto.

Therefore, neither Xi Congliang nor Gao Ziyou, including their most deeply hidden henchmen, knew that the mission objective of their operation was now impossible to see again.

However, this place is too deserted and remote, and there are an unusually large number of mosquitoes, to the point that they almost want to carry people away.

Even though Chu Xin had superpowers to protect her from becoming a free blood bank, she didn't want to just wait for the two of them to determine who was better and then have a few more words exchanged to reveal the whole story.

Silently glancing at Zhou Yichen, seeing him intently staring ahead, Chu Xin immediately used her mental power to block Xi Congliang's attack. Gao Ziyou's dagger, coming from the opposite direction, pierced Zhou Yichen's shoulder blade first without any suspense.

Then, before Xi Congliang could recover from his astonishment at what had happened a second ago, Gao Ziyou staggered as if he had lost his balance.

His scalpel also hit Gao Ziyou accurately, but only on the arm, and the injury wasn't as severe.

All of this happened in an instant. Apart from Xi Congliang, who was puzzled because he clearly felt that his movements were being hindered, no one else noticed anything unusual.

Gao Ziyou gained the upper hand, enduring the pain in his arm as he kicked Xi Congliang to the ground. "Tell me, who exactly are you, and why did you instigate me to get Yu Jing out?"

Unexpectedly, Xi Congliang, who had just spat out a mouthful of blood, sneered and said nothing, but his mouth was clearly making a biting motion.

That means they're either biting their tongue or biting into the poison hidden in their mouth.

Gao Ziyou immediately grabbed Xi Congliang's upper jaw and quickly dislocated his chin, but it was too late; the blood in Xi Congliang's mouth had already turned black.

It is highly poisonous.

His identity was exposed and his mission failed, so he immediately committed suicide. Xi Congliang was too decisive and efficient. This change was too sudden. Not only did Zhou Yichen not expect it, but even Chu Xin, who had superpowers, could not stop it.

"This guy is interesting."

Chu Xin lowered her voice and complained. She had secretly intervened to end the fight sooner, but she didn't expect that not only would the fight end, but another person's life would also be ended.

Things are truly unpredictable; the large intestine encloses the small intestine.

"What a pity," Zhou Yichen said leisurely.

Gao Ziyou angrily threw away the person in his hand, and stood there silently roaring with anger, clutching his head, looking like a pantomime.

I’m so angry, so angry, so angry!!

It was at this moment that the leader of the henchmen, who had been secretly watching, pretended to have just arrived and ran over, panting heavily.

"Boss...you killed someone?!"

The surprise in his voice and the slight tremor at the end made it sound like he had suddenly witnessed a murder and was terrified.

Gao Ziyou was annoyed. "Shut up! What's with all the fuss!"

The henchman immediately shut up, then noticed the injury on his arm, pointed at it, and was about to shout again, but under Ge Shaoting's piercing gaze, he only asked in a low voice:

"Boss, you're injured too?"

Gao Ziyou thought he was stupid. "Isn't it obvious? Take him back and send him to the police station. Tell them the truth: this person was an enemy agent who committed suicide by hiding poison in his mouth."

Then leave without looking back.

As for why he didn't approach Zhou Yichen, Gao Ziyou said he simply didn't want to.

Unbeknownst to him, the leader of his henchmen's eyes turned icy cold. After glancing at the ground, he replied in a fawning voice, "Yes, boss."

He then bent down and, with almost no effort, scooped up Xi Congliang's body with one hand, disappearing quickly into the darkness.

After waiting a while longer and making sure everyone had left, Chu Xin and Zhou Yichen started walking back.

As for Ge Shaoting, who caught up last, Su Zihang stopped him after confirming that the people he saw were indeed Chu Xin and Zhou Yichen.

Firstly, he didn't want to disturb their investigation; secondly, Su Zihang didn't want to run into Gao Ziyou yet, as he had a weakness he couldn't afford to take any risks.
