Chapter 86 One point of thanks
The chef spoke haltingly, and Wei Changfeng stared at him in disbelief. This chef had brought down ten restaurants?
No wonder people say nobody wants him. Who would dare hire a chef like that if they opened a restaurant?
Or do you still believe you're lucky enough to ward off this jinx?
"Mr. Pu, this man is a bit strange."
Wei Changfeng said in a low voice, "The chef's skills are good. They just ate there, and the taste was good."
It's unimaginable how such skills could bankrupt ten restaurants.
There's probably something wrong with this person; in any case, I'd keep my distance from such people.
"It's alright, I'm not afraid of anything strange."
Su Yuncheng smiled and shook his head, finally understanding why the chef was so concerned about whether the restaurant would close down. Nanjing is a big city, but the relationships within each industry are very close.
No matter which restaurant knew about his illustrious track record, they probably wouldn't dare hire him.
"Don't worry, I won't let you starve."
Su Yuncheng looked at the cook, whose eyes suddenly lit up: "Really? You can give me work to do?"
"I can try to help you. Where are your family members?"
"I have no family. My master took me in and raised me. It's a pity that I couldn't keep his restaurant after he passed away."
The cook's expression immediately darkened, but thankfully he didn't continue crying.
He was a pitiful man. Su Yuncheng sighed inwardly. The cook wasn't lying; everything he said was true. He still felt guilty towards his master.
"What's your name?" Su Yuncheng asked.
"I don't have a name. My master calls me Little Fatty, and that's what everyone calls me."
Another nameless person. Little Fatty is lucky to have met a master; otherwise, given his personality, he would either starve to death or be harmed by someone.
Little Fatty is simple-minded, or to put it bluntly, a bit dim-witted. No wonder the Japanese spies hired him. They didn't care about his past achievements; the dumber a person is, the easier it is for them.
"Arrange a nice place for him to stay, don't let him go hungry."
Su Yuncheng stood up and said to Wei Changfeng that he couldn't take Xiaopang back to Shanghai, but he could settle him in the Special Service Department for the time being.
Anyway, Little Fatty can't leave now.
The Special Service Department is so large that it has its own canteen, so hiring a cook is no problem at all.
There's no need to tell Wei Changfeng about this; I can just mention it to Boss Dai later.
"Don't worry, Mr. Pu, I'll make sure he's settled in right away and won't suffer any injustice."
Wei Changfeng breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that Su Yuncheng would ask him to release the person. The case was not over, and the cook could not leave at will.
"Boss Dai."
Su Yuncheng came to the clerk's office to say goodbye.
The two Japanese spies have been dealt with; the rest is up to them. They can't expect Su Yuncheng to help them with everything.
There are definitely still Japanese spies around; they need to find them themselves.
"Mr. Su, please have a seat."
The section chief immediately stood up. Qu Ning wasn't there; she was in her office writing the case closure report. The section chief changed his form of address.
Fortunately, the case from tonight doesn't need to be included. These two Japanese spies have nothing to do with Furong, and the chief doesn't want to report this to the old man right now. He'll report it later when more people are caught.
When reporting, the section chief would not mention that Japanese spies were secretly monitoring them from the entrance of their intelligence office.
He would say that the Japanese spies were detected as soon as they arrived, and then they kept an eye on them, and by following the clues, they arrested another batch.
This way, they were the ones manipulating the Japanese spies, rather than the Japanese spies running to their side without the Special Service Department noticing; it was Su Yuncheng who discovered them.
Different wording can lead to vastly different results.
The prerequisite is that they need to capture more Japanese spies.
"Boss Dai, I'll be returning to Shanghai tomorrow. You can start making arrangements for the Special Operations Section now."
Su Yuncheng can help them, but he must be given sufficient convenience. Establishing a special operations section is a good idea, as it would give him capable people in the Special Service Department.
Even if he is not in Nanjing, he can still command the Special Operations Section to do things for him.
"Don't worry, I'll issue the appointment tomorrow."
The director immediately nodded. Su Yuncheng had not only demonstrated his extraordinary abilities, but also his incredible luck.
To run into a Japanese spy while having a meal—that's incredible luck.
The director now values him more and more, and even without Su Yuncheng bringing it up, he will establish this special operations section as soon as possible.
The order will be delivered to Shen Mozhou tomorrow.
"There's one more thing..."
Su Yuncheng told the story of Little Fatty, and the director's eyes widened in disbelief. How could there be such an eccentric chef?
Little Fatty isn't a Japanese spy. If he's clean, we can keep him in the intelligence agency.
Su Yuncheng is soft-hearted and spoke up for him, which is a good thing. Keeping Xiao Pang around will also become a bridge between them and Su Yuncheng in the future.
"It's nothing, don't worry, he'll be well taken care of as long as he stays with the Special Service."
The magistrate readily agreed, showing no fear of anything supernatural.
They're from the Secret Service; this place is more sinister than any other organization.
Besides, what does Su Yuncheng do?
They are incredibly shrewd and predictive; they are the next extraordinary person, and the future extraordinary person.
Su Yuncheng dared to help the cook, so he must not be afraid of these things.
"Thank you very much, Mr. Dai. I'll take my leave now."
Su Yuncheng stood up, but the clerk immediately waved his hand, saying, "Wait."
The director gave Secretary Qi a wink, and Secretary Qi understood, immediately taking a small box out of the cabinet.
"Please accept this as a small token of my gratitude, Mr. Su."
Secretary Qi handed the small box to Su Yuncheng. Su Yuncheng wasn't one of their people, but he had helped them so much this time. If they didn't express their gratitude, it would be their fault for not showing appreciation.
If something really happens in the future, how will I ask Su Yuncheng for help?
"Thanks."
Su Yuncheng weighed the box in his hand and did not refuse.
It's quite substantial; if it were gold bars, this would be a very significant gift.
"I'll take you there."
Secretary Qi offered to see him off, while the director escorted Su Yuncheng to the door.
Su Yuncheng did not allow Secretary Qi to take him to the entrance of the hotel where he was staying. Although there were no Japanese spies watching him, it was still a car from the Special Service Department.
Mizuno is still in Nanjing; we can't let him associate himself with the Secret Service.
Su Yuncheng would try to avoid any potential risks; taking a few extra steps was nothing to him.
Su Yuncheng wasn't afraid of any danger at this late hour. He hadn't mastered his grandfather's kung fu, but he could easily handle two or three people.
Moreover, no one can escape his senses and launch a sneak attack from the shadows.
He'll run away if there are too many people; this is Nanjing, right under the emperor's nose, and there are plenty of police patrolling here.
In fact, Su Yuncheng did not encounter any danger and arrived at the room safely.
The next morning, Su Yuncheng went straight to the train station. This trip to Nanjing was short, but he gained a lot.
In particular, Mr. Dai expressed his gratitude, saying that he opened the box last night and found a full ten large gold bars.
Including the five from last time, there are now fifteen.
Boss Dai is indeed very generous.
The main reason was that the person caught this time was very important and priceless to Boss Dai, so he gave him extra money as a thank you.
Let alone fifteen gold bars, even if a hundred gold bars could buy Furong, it would still be a worthwhile deal for Boss Dai.
Moreover, it came with so many Japanese spies and a codebook.
In Shanghai, Kento Kato limped out of his house.
Upon arriving in the International Settlement, he changed completely and quickly found his safe house.
He slowly applied makeup in front of the mirror.
Before long, a heavily made-up woman appeared in the mirror.
His female attire was actually not attractive; he was an ugly woman. However, he discovered that the heavier his makeup, the fewer male characteristics he had.
It doesn't matter if he's ugly, as long as people can't tell he's a man.
The intelligence team has discovered some of Cao Lijun's travel patterns and they will probably take action soon. He must stop them and not let those who mocked him get away with it.
These people look down on him; they deserve to die.
