"How long is the boss going to sleep?" Zhang Mengqian asked curiously.

Beside the campfire, Qing Chen fell into a deep sleep after escaping danger, sleeping for 12 hours straight, while Yang Yang stayed by his side for the same 12 hours.

Yang Yang glanced at Qing Chen: "It's been months, and this is probably the first time he's been able to get a good night's sleep."

"Is the boss working so hard?" Zhang Mengqian asked curiously.

"Hmm," Yang Yang said, "Your boss is always racing against time, planning his schedule meticulously, never stopping for a moment. The fact that he can get a good night's sleep means that he has indeed put some things aside after seizing control of the Kamiyo Yunhe."

"Where do we go next?" Zhang Mengqian asked curiously.

Yang Yang smiled and said, "Let's talk about it when your boss wakes up."

At that moment, Kamishiro Seisho, covered in cold sweat, came over carrying a bundle of firewood and placed it next to the campfire.

Both of his wrists had been broken by Kamiyo Yunhe, yet he still had to be a prisoner alongside Kamiyo Yunhe. The broken bones caused him excruciating pain when he gathered firewood, so he could only hold the firewood between his elbows...

Kamiyo Yunhe that useless man lying on the ground, unable to do anything, he still had to do hard labor under Yang Yang's orders...

That's terrible...

As one of the ten directors of the Kamishiro Corporation, he has now fallen to such a state. Anyone with a weaker mentality would probably have committed suicide.

After finishing all that, Kamishiro Seisho found a place and sat down with a numb expression.

"Give me some food," said Kamishiro Seisho, looking at the campfire.

Yang Yang glanced at him. "Hungry."

Kamishiro Seisho paused for a moment. "Do you know what you're doing? I haven't eaten for two days."

Yang Yang: "Why is there so much trouble with a prisoner?"

Kamishiro Seisho knew that Qing Chen was a member of the Qing Clan Secret Intelligence Department.

He said calmly, "I heard you called the Qing family. Someone from the Qing family will come soon to pick me and Kamiyo Yunhe up, and then give us the appropriate level of prisoner treatment, placing us under house arrest in a suburban villa, waiting for our patriarch to propose exchange terms. All of this will not change because of your willingness or unwillingness, so do what you have to do. It's fine to vent your anger, but you can't let me starve to death."

Yang Yang's eyes lit up. "You've seen Nicolas Cage in Lord of War too? He looks so much like him!"

Kamishiro Seisho was silent for a moment. "?"

He suddenly felt that the girl in front of him seemed a little abnormal. Did she not hear what he said?

Just then, a Shadow Gate opened in the nearby woods, and a shadowy figure wearing a baseball cap and a black mask stepped out, smiling as he greeted Yang Yang: "You must be Yang Yang!"

Yang Yang toned down her impetuous personality and said honestly, "Hello, Mr. Shadow."

She was thinking about a problem: Qing Chen was good in every way, except that he had too many elders.

I don't know whether I'll spend more time with the Knights or go back to the Qing family during the Spring Festival in the future.

Shadow was holding a small tea canister. He handed it to Yang Yang: "It contains Jingshan Tea. Drink about three grams a day. Once you finish this canister, it will clear your mind and improve your eyesight. Consider it my gift to you."

Kamishiro Seisho, who was standing to the side, was stunned for a moment. He had also seen this shadow of the Qing family at the negotiating table before, but the shadow at this moment was completely different from the cold image he had before. Instead, he looked exceptionally gentle.

This is a tea plantation made from the work of a superhuman; who has ever seen him so gentle?!

Moreover, the God Era had also investigated the Jingshan Tea. According to their estimates, it would take about two B-Class superhumans to grow such a small jar of tea, and now Shadow just gave it away like that.

Suddenly, Kamishiro Seisho felt that he might have misjudged the girl's identity.

What kind of girl needs her shadow to personally deliver a gift to her upon meeting her?

Yang Yang took the small tea canister. "This is way too expensive!"

Shadow shook his head and smiled, "You two work together so well; it wouldn't work if the two partners had different eyesight. Also, I want to thank you for helping Qing Chen a lot this time."

"Thank you, Mr. Shadow," said Yang Yang, a free-spirited girl who loves driving, but was unusually well-behaved in front of her elders.

At this moment, as the shadow arrived, Qing Chen opened his eyes.

He slowly stood up and asked, "You won't be upset that I strayed from the group and acted alone, will you?"

Shadow said with a smile, "How could that be? You are free to go wherever you want. The Qing family is not your prison."

At this moment, two more Qing clan spies emerged from the Shadow Gate. Upon seeing Qing Chen, they quickly approached, seemingly wanting to say something but unable to because of the presence of the shadow.

Shadow glanced at the two of them. "Didn't you two say in private that you wanted to take a picture with him? Go ahead, I'll take the picture for you."

The two high-ranking spies stood still, not daring to move, in case the shadow was speaking ironically.

Shadow pulled out her phone, annoyed. "Normally, you two wouldn't have needed to come personally to take away something as trivial as Kamishiro Seisho. Now that you've volunteered, do you think I don't know what you're up to? Go ahead, get acquainted with your future boss first."

After saying that, the two spies came to Qing Chen's side with a smile, sandwiched him between them, and each of them made a peace sign and smiled innocently.

This scene left Qing Chen completely bewildered.

Kamishiro Seisho swore that he had never seen a spy from the Secret Intelligence Department smile so innocently before.

In everyone's memory, spies are cold, cruel, and ruthless!

After taking the photos, the two spies dragged Kamishiro Seisho away without saying a word the whole time.

Dragged along the ground, Kamishiro Seisho howled in pain as his two severed hands ripped apart. "I demand political treatment! You can't treat me like this! Is the Kei clan planning a full-scale war against the Federation?"

"Wait a minute!" Shadow raised his hand to stop the spy, then looked at Qing Chen: "What were you planning to do with him again?"

Qing Chen thought for a moment and said, "I originally wanted to use Kamiyo Yunhe to avenge Qing Mu, but now I think Kamishiro Seisho might be more suitable. Let's lock him in the pigsty and let him stay there for the rest of his life. Don't let the Kamishiro Corporation replace him."

Upon hearing this, Kamishiro Seisho went berserk. "You can't do this to me!"

The shadow smiled and said, "As you wish."

Having said that, the two satisfied spies dragged the despairing Kamishiro Seisho towards the Shadow Gate.

The completely crippled Kamiyo Yunhe on the ground coughed and laughed, "Old man Jingcheng, this Qing Chen's status within the Qing clan is probably frighteningly high. You've miscalculated. Hahaha, you're in a worse situation than me. I'm about to die, but you can't even die."

Qing Chen glanced at him. "How did you know I was going to kill you?"

Kamiyo Yunhe gasped, "You won't leave someone like me alive, will you? We've fought so many times, we both know that as long as we're alive, we'll always be a thorn in each other's side... We're both the kind of people who would try to turn the tables even if there's only a sliver of hope."

Qing Chen was silent for a few seconds. What Kamiyo Yunhe said was right. He originally wanted to use Kamiyo Yunhe to humiliate the Kamishiro Corporation, but he felt that if such a person lived, the people in the Qing family who were responsible for guarding him might be killed in the future.

But Kamishiro Seisho is different. That Ten Eunuchs doesn't have that kind of fighting spirit; he might go crazy if he's imprisoned for a month.

After Kamishiro Seisho was taken away, Shadow asked, "What are your plans next? Your gang in City 22 is quite interesting. Are you going back to continue developing it?"

Qing Chen shook his head. "They don't need me there anymore... What do you think of this club?"

His subtext was that since the Shadow had discovered what he was doing, it must also be able to astutely realize that this matter would have an impact on the entire federal power structure.

As a beneficiary, Shadow is unlikely to allow the Parent's Association to continue in this manner.

However, Shadow just laughed and said, "I don't have many years left to live either, what does this have to do with me? Don't worry, I only discovered the anomaly over there because I was looking for you. Others probably don't have as much free time as me. You still have some time to develop. Before the old men find out, hurry up and acquire the ability to protect yourself... But it will be difficult."

The difficulty Shadow mentioned refers to the fact that once the bigwigs of various conglomerates discover what the Parent's Association been doing, they will definitely launch a full-scale attack on the Parent's Association, and the Parent's Association may be directly destroyed.

Shadow looked at Qing Chen: "You still haven't answered me where you're going next? Do you know that the entire Secret Intelligence Department is waiting for you to return? There are countless people there, just like those two spies from earlier, waiting for you to return and take control of the power."

The fact that Qing Chen was able to break out of A02 Base was already shocking enough, especially since he brought more than 900 intelligence personnel with him.

Now, Qing Chen has become incredibly audacious and has gone to capture Kamiyo Yunhe and Kamishiro Seisho alive.

One is an A-level expert who has been famous for 13 years in the Kamishiro Corporation, and the other is Ten Eunuchs.

Qing Chen had not communicated with the outside world for the past two days and had no idea how much of a sensation this matter had caused throughout the Federation.

Those were the Ten Eunuchs, the top figures in the entire Federation's power pyramid, and they were just arrested like that.

When this news came out, the entire Secret Intelligence Department was in an uproar.

Who wouldn't want a boss who's practically a cheat code?

At this moment, Shadow changed the subject. "However, your identity as Boss Bai Zhou has now been completely exposed."

"Oh no," Qing Chen suddenly looked up and said.

"Hmm? Is there any danger?" Shadow asked curiously.

"No, no..." Qing Chen said.

There shouldn't be any immediate danger, since he's now B-Class, so he doesn't really need those layers of disguise anymore. Even if many people know who he is, they can't do anything about it.

He wasn't thinking about whether there was any danger, but rather how to face those he had deceived...

Back then, Qing Chen played two roles for a long time, and he even praised "Qing Chen" in the group as the boss of Baizhou!

This is going to be a disaster!

More importantly, Huan Yu should also know his true identity. I wonder if the other party has recovered his strength and is preparing to take revenge on me again?

There will be another chapter at 11 PM.
