Chen Jiaping picked up his coffee, took a sip, and calmed himself down. He had also sobered up from his initial anger and had already considered the matter. When An Ruwei asked him, he replied, "In Shanghai, our Green Gang is naturally the only dominant force. Everyone has to give the old man face. But these people don't care at all, which means they don't live in Shanghai often. They are probably outsiders who have recently come to Shanghai. These people should be easy to find."
At this point, a possibility suddenly occurred to him, and his heart tightened. He knew very well that there was a terrifying force active in the Shanghai concessions: the Chongqing intelligence organization. These were people who could not be offended. They were ruthless and decisive, never giving their opponents any chance.
Could it be such a coincidence? Chen Jiaping couldn't help but shake his head. If it really was those villains, he would probably have to swallow his anger. Even a powerful figure like Lu Laosan, who almost unified the Shanghai Green Gang, couldn't withstand their assassination attempt. He was no match for them.
Never mind, let's find these people first. There are all sorts of people in Shanghai, how can we be so unlucky as to run into these villains?
Chen Jiaping comforted himself and said nothing more, simply waiting for the results from his subordinates.
Gan Mingxuan and his four team members quickly left the dangerous area. Led by Sun Xin, they turned through several alleys and performed several anti-tracking maneuvers to confirm that there were no tails behind them before they breathed a sigh of relief.
Gan Mingxuan watched the four team members doing some inexplicable things and couldn't help but feel curious. He asked in a low voice, "Old Sun, what are you doing? Are you afraid someone will follow us?"
He wasn't a fool; on the contrary, he was quite clever and guessed pretty much everything as soon as he spoke.
Sun Xin nodded and said, "Just in case. As you know, our main adversaries in Shanghai are the Japanese. We generally keep to ourselves and these Green Gang members. It's not that we're afraid of them, but it's not worth it. Besides, our identities are secret. If we're targeted, it'll be troublesome. We have to be careful in everything we do."
Gan Mingxuan couldn't help but give a thumbs up and exclaimed again, "Old Sun, you guys are really amazing! You're capable and smart. Let's get closer in the future. If you have the chance to return to Chongqing, I'll give you a promising future, as long as you're willing!"
Gan Mingxuan patted his chest and assured everyone that he genuinely wanted to befriend these team members. These people were completely different from his previous friends, and being with them gave him a sense of power that provided him with a great sense of security.
Sun Xin and the others secretly shook their heads, unconvinced. While Gan Mingxuan's words were true—his connections could easily promote a few lower-ranking personnel—they were useless against them. The Military Intelligence Bureau was an independent intelligence agency; once you entered its gates, even in death, you were a member of the Bureau, with no chance of ever leaving.
However, the fact that a young master like Gan Mingxuan could say such things still warmed the hearts of the group.
"By the way, Young Master Gan!"
"Hey! From now on, everyone will call me Mingxuan. We're friends now, right?"
“Alright, Mingxuan, we can’t show our faces for the next few days. Chen Jiaping is no ordinary Green Gang member. His father, Chen Ting, is one of the Green Gang’s most prominent elders with immense power. He will definitely mobilize Green Gang members to search for us everywhere. Our identities cannot be revealed, or we’ll be in big trouble. Your matter is also very important, so let’s not cause any unnecessary complications. What do you think?” Sun Xin said solemnly.
He had many more things to consider. To be honest, Gan Mingxuan's intervention this time was out of necessity. According to the rules of the undercover operation, it was absolutely forbidden. These special agents could not act as casually as ordinary people. He had to report today's events to the station chief so that preparatory measures could be taken to prevent any accidents from happening.
Gan Mingxuan naturally knew the importance of things. In fact, he had caused some trouble in his conflicts outside, and he regretted it. Before coming, his father repeatedly told him not to cause trouble and to bring back the family's treasures. Otherwise, he would not have asked Gan Mingxuan to risk coming here personally.
"Don't worry, I know what's important, I'll do whatever you say!"
After saying that, the group quickly left under the cover of night.
