Espionage: Codename Wuchang, I Really Have Only a Hundred Million of Them

Su Ci transmigrates to the Republican-era metropolis of Shanghai and becomes a teacher at Tongwen Academy, a Japanese spy agency disguised as a school.

In this deadly espionage world, everyone else walks a tightrope every day, but Su Ci awakens the [Assassin Mercenary System]. As long as he has money, he can summon an unlimited number of elite assassins, demolition experts, and infiltrators!

What if he has no money? He’ll just ask the Japanese for some!

“Chief, blowing up the ammunition depot will cost extra!” After getting the money, Su Ci heads off to enjoy himself at the Paramount Ballroom. The next day, he points to a newspaper report about a fire caused by a lightning strike. “See? My people did it. Reimburse me!”

And so, a bizarre character appears on the Shanghai Bund.

He is charming and gets along with everyone. He loves money and women, yet somehow his “performance” is second to none!

Until one day, the suspicious head of the secret service, Qi Yunting, comes looking for him. With a cold smile, he pulls out an interrogation record. “Brother Su, the prisoner you interrogated confessed. His codename is ‘Night Owl.’ Funny thing is, I’ve learned there’s more than one ‘Night Owl.’ Tell me... should I report you?”

Su Ci adjusts his gold-rimmed glasses, smiling like a spring breeze. “Brother Qi, there really is more than one ‘Night Owl,’ because... every assassin in Shanghai is one of my people.”

As soon as he finishes speaking, thirty armed men in suits outside the door have already aimed their guns at Qi Yunting’s head.
