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

Chapter 844 This is a terrible omen!

the other side.

After leaving the guesthouse, Matsumoto Ken immediately blended into the crowd. He appeared natural, and his usually fierce, triangular eyes seemed more approachable. He not only looked around but also politely asked others for directions.

He portrayed a newcomer from out of town with remarkable depth and realism.

Especially his fluent local dialect, which sounded completely natural to me.

Chu Xin followed him all the way, seeing him go in and out of various stores. She thought to herself that she hadn't thought things through. This guy wasn't a cargo driver; he was an actor!

Matsumoto Kenji stopped in front of a courtyard with the slogan "Self-reliance and hard work" written on the wall. He looked up at the number on the door and knocked on the door to make sure it was correct.

The door opened after a short while, and a woman in her forties or fifties came out. She frowned slightly when she saw Matsumoto Ken. "Comrade, who are you?"

Matsumoto Ken appeared somewhat embarrassed, scratching his head as if he were ashamed. "...Hello, I'm looking for my cousin, his name is Cui Jin, and my surname is Lin."

Upon hearing this, the woman who opened the door turned her eyes around and quickly looked Matsumoto Ken up and down. She became more enthusiastic and said, "Oh, it's you! I'm from your cousin's family. Come in quickly. Your uncle has been talking about you for days. You've finally come over."

Matsumoto Ken looked pleasantly surprised. "Really? I was held up by something and couldn't get away for a while. I finally managed to get here. Please forgive me, cousin and sister-in-law."

"It's alright, it's good that you've arrived safely!" The woman smiled and led him through the door, then glanced around discreetly before slamming the door shut again.

Chu Xin thought for a moment and did not immediately climb over the wall to follow them in. Instead, she wandered around the area for a while before turning around and disappearing quickly.

In the courtyard.

The woman led Matsumoto Ken to the door of a house, knocked, and then pushed it open, letting him in before leaving herself.

Matsumoto Ken went straight in and snorted heavily when he saw the old man dressed comfortably with white hair and beard. He then placed the large box on his back on the table in front of him.

The old man's eyebrows twitched slightly, but he said nothing.

Matsumoto Ken rubbed his sore shoulders, sat down opposite him, and unceremoniously poured himself a glass of water. He drank three glasses before stopping, glancing at the box and saying, "The stuff is here. It probably can't be sent away now. You should arrange for someone else to take over, but I'm going with you."

The old man was slightly surprised, his shrewd eyes blinking as he asked, "Didn't we also have to go to Haishi? Why did you suddenly change your itinerary?"

Matsumoto Ken wrinkled his nose and decided to tell the truth, since he needed the other party's help with everything from now on.

“The person Ōtani Sōji asked me to smuggle in has been killed. I can’t stay here and wait to die.”

"Snapped--"

"What did you say?!"

The old man was so shocked that he dropped the walnut he had been playing with. His suddenly widened eyes completely ruined his leisurely demeanor. "You're saying that Otani Sōji's men were killed?"

Matsumoto Ken nodded with a sorrowful expression. "Yes, they were killed. Nakamura Tadashi was also killed. Moreover, the exchange group has been targeted by the Chinese government. I won't come looking for you unless absolutely necessary."

"Cui Jin, you must help me!"

It took the old man, Cui Jinhao, a long time to come to his senses. He first glanced at Matsumoto Ken, then at the large box. Frustrated, his hand instinctively reached for something, and it was only then that he realized the walnut had fallen out.

He looked down and was suddenly startled again. He saw that the two walnuts, which he had played with until they were beginning to shine, had both developed cracks.

This is extremely unlucky!
