Chapter 155: Relief

Do the Japanese dare assassinate Madam?

Of course they do. There is nothing the Japanese dare not do.

They dared attack Pearl Harbour. How much more so assassinate someone?

How did Xiaoliuzi's father die before?

He was bombed in Huanggu Hutun!

It is no problem for the Japanese to copy it again.

However, Zhang Yong believes that the Japanese invaders' current plan is still very preliminary.

They have only just started gathering information about Madame's movements.

It is still very primitive data. There is still a lot of work to be done before any real action can be taken.

However, Zhang Ping and Gu Bafeng couldn't wait to call their respective superiors to report.

Zhang Yong was no exception.

He also called his superior first thing.

Why?

To claim credit!

This piece of information is very important.

Even if the Japanese invaders have not yet started to implement it, it at least shows that they have such an intention.

It is enough to have such an intention.

And Madam is almost someone's forbidden possession. If she is in danger, how can someone sit by and do nothing?

If the information goes up, someone is definitely going to be furious.

At that time, he will definitely order various departments to strengthen the eradication of Japanese spies. Strengthen the crackdown on Japanese spies.

This is tantamount to strengthening the power of the Fuxing Society in disguise.

Of course, the Director is very happy to see such a result.

This incident will also benefit Zhang Yong greatly. When it comes to catching Japanese spies, who can catch more than him?

'What?'

Sure enough, the Director was very shocked.

Although he knew that Japanese spies were arrogant, he never expected them to be so arrogant.

They actually secretly investigated the whereabouts of the wife.

How could this be allowed?

What were they trying to do?

Had the Japanese gone crazy?

'Director, Gu Bafeng and Zhang Ping have also reported to their superiors.'

'I know.'

The Director hung up the phone immediately. Then he immediately called the adjutant's office.

He couldn't afford to waste a minute. Otherwise, someone else would get the credit. Fortunately, Zhang Yong was there. Zhang Yong would still get the credit for catching the Japanese spy.

He was the one who discovered the spy. His credit would be the credit of the Restoration Society.

After making the phone call,

the adjutant's office was also very shocked. They hurriedly reported to the Commander-in-Chief.

'Qi Wu!'

'Yes!'

Mao Renfeng hurriedly came in.

The Director-General walked quickly towards the door.

As he walked, he said, 'Arrange an aeroplane immediately. I need to go and see the President.'

'Yes,' Mao Renfeng hurriedly arranged.

At the moment, the President was not in Nanjing. He was in Chengdu. He was dealing with Liu Xiang of the Sichuan Army.

It had been several hours since he had flown from Nanjing to Chengdu.

The Director-General was obviously in a hurry because something very important had happened. There was not a moment to lose.

'Qi Wu, take notes.'

'Yes!'

'All information about Madame's whereabouts, both time and place, is to be treated as top secret. If any leaks are discovered, take immediate action.'

'Yes.'

Mao Renfeng's heart tightened.

Something had happened to Madame? My God! Who on earth would dare to lay a finger on Madame?

Is that person out of their mind?

After thinking about it, the only people who would be crazy enough to do that would be the Japanese.

Those Japanese people are really...

The Chairman will be furious.

'Also, transfer Kou Xingde back here. Tell him he has an important mission.'

'Yes.'

'Order Chun Yu Chi to return immediately to the headquarters at Ji'e Lane and await orders. The original mission is terminated.'

'Yes.'

Mao Renfeng agreed to each one.

The Director is taking this opportunity to get rid of his rivals.

Using the excuse that someone is trying to do harm to Madam, he is getting rid of Kou Xingde and Chun Yu Chi.

If they don't know when to stop and listen, the consequences will be predictable.

'Shit...'

'It seems like I'm making things worse...'

Zhang Yong sighed inwardly.

He had just wanted to arrest a few Japanese spies, but it had turned into such a mess.

The Japanese had actually wanted to assassinate the Madam.

This was a serious matter!

Since it involved the Madam, he, Jiang, would definitely have to personally intervene. The means were obvious. There must be a strong response.

He could not let the Japanese invade his own home.

Therefore, he must definitely wipe out a wave of Japanese spies. He would show the Japanese who was the master of this land!

'The Japanese are really crazy...'

'Yes. These guys, they're really crazy...'

Zhang Ping and Gu Bafeng each returned from making their phone calls. Needless to say, their superiors must have also called the adjutant's office.

As to whether they would fly directly to Chengdu to find the chairman, it was hard to say. But they would definitely personally call the chairman to report the matter.

Who would be willing to take credit for such an important matter?

This was also good. With several bigwigs concerned about the safety of Madame, Jiang must be unable to sit still. He might even fly back from Chengdu.

'Damn it!'

Gu Bafeng went up and continued to beat the Japanese spy.

The Japanese spy was already dying, only exhaling and not inhaling. Barely still recognizable as a human.

'Stop beating. Keep him alive.'

'Yes.'

'Let me see the notebook.'

Zhang Yong brought the notebook over. Carefully studied it.

He discovered that Madam had visited the Tachou Military Air Base quite a lot. At least three times a month. Sometimes for half a day, sometimes for just four hours.

As the secretary-general of the Aviation Committee, she was very concerned about the development of the Chiang's air force.

She actively encouraged the young pilots and helped them overcome various difficulties. So that they could focus on training and combat.

As for the business of holding money and tinkering with planes, future generations will have different opinions.

After all, planes were changing rapidly at the time. You'd buy one here, and it'd become obsolete over there. There didn't seem to be anything wrong with waiting.

But then the full-scale war broke out, and it was too late to buy another one.

It wasn't as if it was her fault.

After all, there were so many people on the Aviation Committee. Unless they were all idiots...

Stop!

Stop!

This is not something you should be thinking about.

What you need to do now is continue to arrest Japanese spies. The more the better.

Send the dying Japanese spy away.

Where?

The military police headquarters. It's the closest.

Everyone is worried that the Japanese spy will die on the way. Then there will be no confession.

'Let's go!'

Zhang Yong waves his hand.

Get in the car.

Continue circling.

Be sure to surround Daxiaochang with Japanese spies...

Wait.

Suddenly, there are red dots appearing again.

Zhang Yong takes a deep breath.

Damn it. There are so many Japanese spies?

I've just caught one, and now another one has appeared? It's never-ending?

Okay, keep catching them!

Stop the car.

Pick up the gun.

The others immediately get out of the car.

Zhang Ping and Gu Bafeng are both like they've been pumped full of adrenaline. Eager to get started.

'Go!'

Zhang Yong doesn't hesitate.

He leads the others in a rush.

They quickly get close to the target.

They discover that it's a postman. He's about to deliver the newspaper inside the airbase.

Huh?

A postman?

After double-checking, they were sure. It was him!

'Arrest!'

Zhang Yong signalled.

The others quickly rushed up.

The postman realised something was wrong and immediately turned around and ran.

However, this time, he was unable to escape. Because of the surrounding terrain, it was conducive to an encirclement.

'Poof!'

'Ah...'

Soon, the postman was subdued.

Feeling mortal danger, he desperately bit his tongue.

'Pry open!'

'Pry open!'

Gu Bafeng and the others hurriedly pressed their hands over the Japanese spy's mouth.

Unfortunately, the Japanese spy was still one step ahead. He had bitten off his own tongue.

His mouth was full of blood.

His expression was still fierce. Like a wounded beast.

Zhang Yong came forward. He tilted his head and looked at him. He shook his head. He guessed that this guy was relatively stubborn.

'Speak, where are your accomplices?'

'Speak, what is your mission?'

Sure enough, interrogating him on the spot was not productive.

It only proved that this Japanese spy was very stubborn. He was not easy to deal with.

What should be done?

Only the use of torture could be considered.

Soon, Gu Bafeng began to torture the Japanese spy.

'Ah...'

'Ah...'

The sound of a miserable scream came.

Zhang Yong couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine. He was secretly terrified.

This guy, Gu Bafeng, is really ruthless.

He went straight to torture.

ADVERTISEMENT

'Ah...'

'Ah...'

The shrill screams came one after the other.

But later, the sound became weaker and weaker. It was the Japanese spy's life force gradually draining away.

However, this Japanese spy never revealed any information.

'Forget it, it's useless,' Zhang Ping couldn't bear to watch anymore. If the torture continued, the person would die.

'Damn...' Gu Bafeng was still unwilling to give up.

Zhang Yong waved his hand.

Gu Bafeng angrily stopped.

'Let's take him back first!'

'Good!'

Gu Bafeng then had the Japanese spy taken away.

At the same time, more people were deployed from the military police headquarters. A full platoon of guards was deployed.

Zhang Yong: ...

It seems that there is no need for so many people.

To deal with an ordinary Japanese spy, a dozen people would be enough.

But then he didn't object.

What if they encounter another one like the old beggar? The more people, the better.

Continue to circle.

Suddenly, there was a quiet flash in the eyes.

But in the crowd in the distance, he saw a familiar figure.

Huh?

Gu Xiaoru?

Wait! Is that her?

Take a closer look. It really is her.

After a brief moment of joy, Zhang Yong once again had a slight doubt.

Gu Xiaoru, who exactly is she?

Is she really just a simple female employee at Citibank?

Why did he meet her outside the concession area last time?

And why did she come to Jinling again?

Isn't she afraid to go out alone?

Or...

does she have a mission?

Is she a member of the Red Party?

'Found something?' Gu Bafeng sensed.

'No,' Zhang Yong shook his head. He drove straight past. He didn't get out of the car to say hello to Gu Xiaoru.

It was a coincidence once. It was a coincidence twice.

It could all be explained as coincidence. But...

was it really a coincidence?

'Squeak!'

Suddenly, Zhang Yong slammed on the brakes.

He unexpectedly saw Ding Mochuan. And Ye Wansheng.

They were hiding in the crowd.

And they were staring at Gu Xiaoru.

Oh no!

Zhang Yong's heart sank.

The people from the Central Intelligence Agency...

No, it was the people from the Party Affairs Investigation Office, they wanted to arrest Gu Xiaoru.

In that case... Gu Xiaoru's identity seemed to be obvious. As everyone knew, the Central Intelligence Agency only arrested one type of person: communists.

Take a deep breath.

Calm down.

Calm down.

Suddenly, Gu Xiaoru, carrying a basket, quietly led the way into the alley next to them. Then she disappeared.

However, Ding Muchuan and Ye Wansheng did not move.

Zhang Yong: ...

What's going on?

Why aren't you chasing after her?

Just as he was wondering, he saw a man appear.

At first, Zhang Yong didn't feel anything at all about this man. He didn't even pay attention to him.

However, he soon noticed that after this man appeared, Ding Muchuan and Ye Wansheng immediately perked up. There were also at least a dozen other people around, all of whose attention was focused on this man.

There was no doubt that this man was the one the Central Intelligence Agency wanted. Gu Xiaoru was not.

So, who was this man?

His eyes narrowed.

From a distance, he saw Ye Wansheng starting to move.

He was leading his men and trying to encircle them from the side street. Ding Muchuan was continuing to monitor the situation head-on.

Zhang Yong: ...

Ye Wansheng. Haha.

Quickly studied the map in his head. See how to thwart the operation.

Building won't work. Sabotage will definitely work.

Just go big. Just blow Ye Wansheng up with a grenade. That'll be the end of it.

At this time, the man also seemed to realise that something was wrong. So he quickly lowered the brim of his cap. At the same time, he quickened his pace. Trying to withdraw from the side.

Ding Muchuan quickly moved with his men, intercepting from in front of the man.

'A bit of a problem...'

Zhang Yong frowned quietly.

Ding Muchuan and Ye Wansheng moved at the same time, and he couldn't take care of both of them.

In fact, it was difficult for him to find an excuse to walk away now.

It looked like the man was about to be intercepted. Suddenly, a woman came out of the alley next to them.

'Ah...'

Zhang Yong let out a low cry.

He thought he saw Li Jingzhi. Then he realised that it wasn't her.

That woman was not Li Jingzhi. But she looked very similar to Li Jingzhi.

He was puzzled.

Was she a relative of Li Jingzhi?

It really is the sister. Genes are similar. Both are dumb as rocks.

Bumping into the Red Party and the Centralist Party like this is like looking for death. What a waste of a beautiful woman...

He was feeling sad. Suddenly his eyes contracted.

He saw the woman reach into her handbag and take out a gun.

Zhang Yong:!!!

A gun!

Wow! This woman has a gun!

I'm stunned!

I thought she was an innocent bystander!

Unexpectedly, she was actually here to save the day. To save the man.

'Bang!'

'Bang!'

Sure enough, the woman quickly raised her gun.

The gunshot sent the two Zhongtong agents to the ground.

'Bastard!'

Ding Muchuan hurriedly crouched down.

The other Zhongtong agents fired back.

However, the man they were trying to arrest, as well as the woman, quickly ducked into the alley.

However, at the end of the alley was another street. There, Ye Wansheng was blocking the way.

So, it was still a dead end.

Unless someone took out Ye Wansheng.

'What's going on?'

'What's going on?'

As soon as the gunshot rang out, Gu Bafeng and Zhang Ping immediately became nervous.

They didn't realise that it was the Zhongtong who were making the arrests.

'On guard!'

'I'll go and check the situation!'

'Don't leave without my order!'

Zhang Yong quickly made his escape.

Zhang Ping: ...

Gu Bafeng: ...

They didn't react for a moment.

But they heard Zhang Yong's next words clearly.

He told them to stay put.

So they stayed put.

Zhang Yong quickly ducked into an alley.

This alley also led to the street behind. But the last section had not been dug through.

Without a system map, Zhang Yong would definitely not have known the surrounding terrain. But now, he knew it very well. Just walk to the end of the alley and throw the grenade.

Quickly ran to the end of the alley. Take out the grenade.

Break the safety. Wait two seconds. Then throw.

'Phew!'

The grenade is thrown.

Zhang Yong reflexively crouches down.

'Boom!'

The grenade explodes.

But it is unclear whether it has hit Ye Wansheng.

The map does not show. The map only shows the Japanese.

What to do?

Continue!

'Phew!'

'Phew!'

Two grenades are thrown in succession. Then quickly turn around and leave.

That's about it. You can't see the effects of the explosions. There's no point in throwing any more.

If you'd hit someone, you would have already have done so.

If you haven't hit anyone...

That would be a waste.

'Boom!'

'Boom!'

There are explosions behind him.

Zhang Yong doesn't care. He quickly gets back in the car.

'What's wrong?'

'I don't know. I didn't see anyone over here.'

Zhang Yong shakes his head.

Then he stands by the car and watches the fun.
