Chapter 117: Hit it off immediately

"Old Lu, where are you in such a hurry to go?" Ma Kui asked with a sneer.

"Oh, there's smuggling over at the inspection team.

"I'm going over to take a look.

"Captain Ma, who is this?"

Lu Qiaoshan felt a numbness in his heart and asked with a smile.

"Jiang Aimei!

"Huang Zhong's wife.

"Special Red Ticket operative.

"A big fish!"

Ma Kui said, full of pride.

"Congratulations, Captain Ma.

"A big fish, definitely a big fish.

"If the Station Chief knows, he'll surely order a banquet to celebrate your success."

Lu Qiaoshan smiled after realizing what was happening.

"That's a must.

"Let the Station Chief open his eyes too, so he stops saying we're just eating for free all day."

Ma Kui smiled, took off his hat, and strode inside.

Wu Jingzhong and Yu Zecheng had just come up from the basement.

Jiang Aimei looked up and met Yu Zecheng's eyes, and the latter's soul almost flew away.

He had met Jiang Aimei.

He had just been feeling sorry for her death.

He didn't expect...

Yu Zecheng went numb instantly.

"Station Chief, I've brought the person to you," Ma Kui shouted loudly upon meeting.

"Captain Ma, who is this?"

Wu Jingzhong looked at Jiang Aimei and asked with a frown.

Ma Kui stared at him and said with a fake smile:

"Jiang Aimei.

"By the way, Director Yu should be familiar with her, right?"

"Familiar.

"I saw her once when I went to Huang Zhong's house to deliver documents," Yu Zecheng smiled.

"Only once?" Ma Kui raised his eyebrows.

"Look.

"Captain Ma is at it again," Yu Zecheng smiled and pointed at him.

"Alright.

"Captain Ma, thank you for your hard work.

"Once this woman bites out the dry goods, I will immediately file a promotion report for you to headquarters."

Wu Jingzhong praised with a gentle smile.

"Qiaoshan.

"Take the person to the basement and let Old Wu boil her well," he turned to look at Lu Qiaoshan.

"Yes, Station Chief," Lu Qiaoshan said hurriedly.

He knew well that if Jiang Aimei bit out something.

Ma Kui would surely make a shocking contribution.

The Jinhai Station would truly be surnamed Mao.

Lu Qiaoshan had a hundred ways to send this woman to the west without anyone knowing.

He had to hurry and handle it.

"Thank you, Station Chief.

"Don't trouble Section Chief Lu to interrogate her.

"I'll be personally responsible for it,"

Ma Kui scanned the room full of "dog thieves" and sneered disdainfully.

"Captain Ma, according to procedure, the Station Chief has the right to designate the interrogator," Lu Qiaoshan reminded with a light smile.

"Regarding Jiang Aimei, I have already reported to Director Mao.

"Director Mao just finished a phone call with Boss Dai.

"Boss Dai has already agreed to send Lieutenant Colonel Adjutant Jiang Dongliang to assist in the interrogation.

"Adjutant Jiang should be on his way here by now,"

Ma Kui said arrogantly.

"Ma Kui, what do you mean?" Lu Qiaoshan's plan fell through, and he said with a gloomy face.

"Nothing.

"I don't trust certain people in the station!"

Ma Kui looked up at the ceiling and sneered with a high-pitched tone.

"Special Envoy Ma has great ability.

"Then you'd better watch your precious treasure well!"

Wu Jingzhong narrowed his eyes and walked away with a wave of his hand.

Returning to the office.

"Station Chief, women cannot be trusted.

"Ma Kui found Mu Liancheng; will he deliberately collude with Jiang Aimei?"

As soon as he entered the office, Yu Zecheng poured tea and asked worriedly.

"To target me, she's not quite there yet.

"What I'm annoyed about is that Bureau Chief Dai is saying one thing to my face and another behind my back.

"This is clearly not trusting me; it's slapping me in the face."

Wu Jingzhong pointed at the table, looking depressed and indignant.

"Is it because of Zhiyou's matter?" Yu Zecheng asked.

"That wouldn't go that far.

"In his eyes, Hong Zhiyou doesn't even count as a grain of sand; even if he holds a grudge, it wouldn't fall on me.

"I just feel cold-hearted,"

Wu Jingzhong sighed, leaning on the desk.

He stared at the eight characters on the wall, "Unite the Will, Defend the Leader," and continued to sigh:

"Back in the Ji'e Lane days, I was risking my life for him.

"In Lanzhou and the Northeast, I gave him plenty of tribute.

"When Jinhai was restored, we inventoried the assets of the traitors.

"I personally loaded that plane of his private assets; they were all treasures, and I didn't dare take a single piece.

"Last time with Cao Qingming of the Beiping Overseas Chinese Chamber of Commerce, I was hauling things for him by the trainload.

"You look across the country; everyone is like Ma Hansan, stuffing their own pockets.

"Only I was a fool, using my heart and life.

"In the end, people treat you like a fart.

"Ma Kui was escorted to headquarters and sent back as a special envoy.

"I didn't say a word.

"This time, for a tiny Jiang Aimei, he even sent an adjutant to sit in and supervise.

"You tell me, this person is a wolf, a tiger; even if you feed it meat every day, it should have been tamed by now."

Wu Jingzhong's eyes sharpened at this point, and he lowered his voice, offering four words while shaking his index finger:

"Worse than a beast!"

"Teacher, calm down; isn't that a bit too harsh?" Yu Zecheng said while pouring tea, trying to comfort him.

"I said human sentiment is politics.

"It's like that in the Ministry of National Defense and with the Chairman.

"It's the same in a tiny town government office.

"If you end up with a leader who is selfish and thin-skinned like this, sitting in this position will cost me my head."

Wu Jingzhong had never been as pessimistic or disappointed as he was now.

He had always respected and admired Dai Li.

He even ranked his reliance and dependence on Dai Li above his old classmates Jianfeng and Zheng Jiemin.

However, now, slap after slap.

Made Wu Jingzhong realize clearly that he had overestimated himself.

Perhaps it wouldn't be long before he was the second Ye Ziming.

Zhiyou was truly insightful.

Being evasive and fawning over a vicious wolf is useless.

If you want to live, you can only fight to the death.

"Teacher, what should we do now?" Yu Zecheng said.

"Zhiyou went to Beiping on business.

"Let's discuss it when he comes back.

"As for Jiang Aimei's matter, we can only leave it to fate; we can't do anything humanly.

"Zhiyou has already clashed with Boss Dai once.

"If something happens while Jiang Dongliang is here, that would be completely tearing off the mask with this vicious tiger, and people will die."

Wu Jingzhong stared at him, his eyes quite annoyed.

He didn't want to believe certain things.

But that didn't mean Yu Zecheng could withstand an investigation.

"Understood, Teacher," Yu Zecheng nodded.

Beiping, No. 47 Nanluoguxiang Courtyard.

Ma Hansan looked around, waved his hand, and the beauty Liu Yuzhu by his side stepped forward and knocked on the door four long and three short times.

"Creak!"

Hong Zhiyou opened the door.

"Director Ma, Secretary Liu," Hong Zhiyou greeted with a smile.

"Secretary Hong," Liu Yuzhu smiled lightly.

She was wearing casual clothes today, without any makeup.

Her hair was pulled back into a bun, wrapped in a black transparent gauze scarf.

Although she was "plain," she still couldn't hide her beauty—red lips, white teeth, and bright, starry eyes.

Especially the full curves of her chest and her perky buttocks.

Contrasted with her watery peach-blossom eyes, she was incredibly captivating.

"Old brother, why are you distracted?

"I risked being followed by Dai Li's spies to come here, not for you to pick beauties."

Ma Hansan said with his hands behind his back, displeased.

Liu Yuzhu smiled charmingly.

"Cough, cough.

"Lost my composure, lost my composure.

"I have long heard the reputation of Secretary Liu as the number one beauty of the Military Statistics Bureau, and for a moment, I was mesmerized."

Hong Zhiyou smiled playfully and gestured for the two to be seated.

"Director Ma, your good days should be coming to an end, right?" Hong Zhiyou said straight to the point.

"Hmph.

"What can Dai Li do to me? This is Beiping, not the Shancheng White Mansion," Ma Hansan pointed at the table, still arrogant.

"Kawashima Yoshiko has already confessed.

"That Longquan sword, and the fact that you secretly defected to the Japanese puppets.

"You took so much money in Beiping.

"Now that the evidence is conclusive, do you think Dai Li will let you go?"

Hong Zhiyou sneered.

Ma Hansan stood up with a "whoosh," his eyes wide, staring fixedly at Hong Zhiyou.

Dai Li had interrogated Kawashima Yoshiko separately.

But he hadn't said much afterward.

Ma Hansan had also secretly warned Kawashima Yoshiko before.

He believed this woman would bury the matter of defecting to the enemy in her stomach.

He didn't expect Hong Zhiyou to expose it as soon as he started.

"Are you bluffing me?" Ma Hansan sneered.

"Bluffing you?

"Director Ma, who in the Military Statistics Bureau doesn't know you hid Boss Dai's Longquan sword?

"With Boss Dai's methods.

"Do you think Kawashima Yoshiko listens to him, or to you?

"Old brother, you don't really think you are the Prince of Beiping and have a death-immunity medal, do you?"

Hong Zhiyou smiled and poured fragrant tea for him and Liu Yuzhu.

"Old brother, your eloquence is good.

"But Boss Dai personally promised that this matter would be dropped, as long as the Longquan sword was returned.

"And he even wrote a letter to my superior.

"He praised Ma a lot.

"You tell me, will Boss Dai kill me?"

Ma Hansan stood up and walked to the window with his hands behind his back.

"This letter, I'm afraid it has made you lose sleep, hasn't it?" Hong Zhiyou asked with a smile.

Ma Hansan didn't speak.

A trace of surprise appeared in Liu Yuzhu's beautiful eyes.

Only when she saw Hong Zhiyou stealing a glance at her chest did she smile charmingly and cross her arms.

Damn.

If you have the guts, don't block it.

Hong Zhiyou winked at her frivolously and continued:

"Director Ma.

"We are all smart people; let's open the skylight and speak clearly.

"Dai Li is tied up by the Chairman's temporary special mission.

"The whole world knows he wants to kill you.

"Who knows, after finishing his business, he might come back for a return shot.

"This letter is nothing but to stabilize you.

"But I believe you can also see that the method is very clumsy and stupid!

"To your intelligence, Director Ma, it is simply a great insult!

"Am I right?"

Ma Hansan turned around slowly and sighed with a smile: "Old brother, you are small in person but big in ghost."

"Last time I lost a round in Wu Jingzhong's hands, and I was very unconvinced at the time.

"Now it seems, I didn't lose unjustly."

He sat back down in the chair, "You are right; this is indeed an insult to me.

"But you ran here, not just to watch my joke, right?"

"This subordinate wouldn't dare," Hong Zhiyou said.

"I just want to join forces with Director Ma to do something you want to do but haven't decided on yet." After drinking tea, he added.

"What thing?" Ma Hansan narrowed his eyes.

"To be precise, something the Chairman, Madam Jiang, Zheng Jiemin, and Mao Renfeng want to do but find it inconvenient to do.

"Get rid of Dai Li!"

Hong Zhiyou's eyes sharpened, staring at Ma Hansan, spitting out the words like iron.

"You have huge dog guts!" Ma Hansan grabbed his clothes and cursed through gritted teeth.

"Last night, he wanted to sleep with my woman.

"I sent my girlfriend to be locked up with leprosy patients.

"Dai Li wants me dead at any time.

"Of course, I will at least die after Director Ma.

"When the time comes, I'll trouble you to walk slowly on the Yellow Springs road and keep this little brother company, okay?"

Hong Zhiyou stared at him, not giving an inch.

"You're turning against Dai Li for a woman?" Ma Hansan almost couldn't believe it.

"You think why people call me Jinhai Tong.

"That's what I traded with sentiment.

"Don't underestimate the word 'sentiment'; Liu Bei relied on it to win the world!

"Just like Miss Yuzhu.

"I believe she can make any sacrifice for you, Director Ma.

"Isn't that so?"

Hong Zhiyou looked at him and laughed brightly.

Ma Hansan stared at him for a long time, then suddenly let go.

He turned to look at Liu Yuzhu apologetically, pursed his lips, nodded, and hissed:

"Old brother, you have guts.

"More guts than me.

"Speak, how do you want to do it."

"Click!"

Hong Zhiyou lit a cigarette and took a puff: "After Dai Li finishes dealing with Jinhai's affairs, he is going to Qingdao to inspect the naval port selected by Ke Ke.

"After it ends, he will definitely go back to report Jinhai's affairs to the Chairman.

"The Qingdao trip is our last chance.

"Send Boss Dai to heaven to return to the west!"

"It seems old brother has a way?" Ma Hansan asked with a smile.

"No.

"In terms of cunning and strategy, ten Zhiyous can't compare to Director Ma.

"I believe you have long had a plan."

Hong Zhiyou said.

"You kid wouldn't be sent by Dai Li to test me, would you?" Ma Hansan laughed coldly.

"Does this matter?

"Test or not, die early or die late, aren't you still going to die?

"Just say whether you're doing it or not."

Hong Zhiyou said.

"I do have a plan: find someone to put a bomb on the plane.

"I won't hide it from you, old brother.

"I've already prepared the time bomb.

"The biggest trouble now is that Dai Li knows the Qingdao Station Chief Liang Ruojie is my man.

"Security will definitely be extra strict.

"Ordinary people won't have a chance to act,"

Ma Hansan thought for a moment and laid everything out.

"Let Miss Yuzhu go," Hong Zhiyou said.

"I'll think of a way regarding the Qingdao airport.

"Director Ma, there are many people above who want Dai Li dead; perhaps things aren't as hard to handle as you think,"

Hong Zhiyou said, his gaze falling on Liu Yuzhu.

"You mean let Yuzhu accompany you to Jinhai to find Dai Li?" Ma Hansan was a bit unhappy.

"Beiping, didn't he use her already?

"Just use her one more time."

Hong Zhiyou said bluntly.

Ma Hansan glared at him, his face looking ugly:

"Yuzhu, what do you think?"

"I, I listen to the Director's arrangement," Liu Yuzhu answered without displeasure.

Female agents of the Military Statistics Bureau, having been trained in certain matters, looked lightly upon things like "fake couples."

It was a mission.

Not some reputation.

Her body was an important weapon for them to survive and roam.

"You are indeed a good candidate.

"But Dai Li is suspicious by nature; if I send you over, and there's Secretary Hong in the way, he won't give you a chance,"

Ma Hansan said with his hands behind his back, pacing back and forth with a headache.

"Director Ma might as well think from another angle.

"Dai Li knowing I'm seeing you might not be a bad thing.

"He will think I'm here to beg Yuzhu to intercede.

"And you, just go with the flow and let him relive Miss Yuzhu's fragrance and softness."

Under Liu Yuzhu's charming white-eyed glare, he continued to smile:

"Don't forget.

"He is an elephant, and I am an ant.

"An ant begging for mercy and softening to an elephant is the normal mindset.

"On the contrary, if you don't send Miss Yuzhu, Dai Li will panic.

"Because you are different from me; you are the Prince of Beiping, famous for being daring and ruthless.

"Dai Li definitely knows a letter can't paralyze you; he is also drumming in his heart right now, afraid you will jump over the wall and mess with him.

"Once Miss Yuzhu goes, it represents you softening and wanting to find a ladder to climb down.

"Only then can Dai Li put his heart slightly at ease."

"Hm, wealth and honor are sought in danger; it seems there is no better way," Ma Hansan nodded in agreement.

"Director Ma.

"Whether we can pull off this shocking vote depends entirely on you and Miss Yuzhu."

Hong Zhiyou extinguished his cigarette and shook hands with Ma Hansan.

After talking, Ma Hansan and Liu Yuzhu walked out.

Hong Zhiyou followed behind Liu Yuzhu, took a quick step, and grabbed her perky buttocks hard.

"Hm."

Liu Yuzhu didn't expect this ghost to have such guts and couldn't help but groan.

Ma Hansan acted as if he didn't hear.

He quickened his pace and left.

"Good sister, I also want to taste the flavor like Boss Dai," Hong Zhiyou whispered with a wicked smile.

"What are you?" Liu Yuzhu smiled charmingly.

"Jinhai Cannon... King, isn't the name loud enough?" Hong Zhiyou said.

"Really, fake?" Liu Yuzhu chatted with him while walking side by side.

"Try it," Hong Zhiyou said.

"Alright.

"If you really send Boss Dai to heaven, I'll send you to heaven too," Liu Yuzhu pinched his handsome white face.

"Thank you, Sister Yuzhu," Hong Zhiyou was overjoyed.

Liu Yuzhu gave him a charming smile and took a few quick steps to chase after Ma Hansan.

Hong Zhiyou watched their figures, his face gradually turning gloomy.

He knew this woman was Ma Hansan's heart's meat.

The reason he was presumptuous was purely to humble himself before Ma Hansan and leave an impression of being lecherous.

Inside the car.

Ma Hansan folded his arms and asked with a faint smile:

"What did he chat with you about?"

"What else, the little brat wants to sleep with me," Liu Yuzhu said with disdain.

"A lecherous person is hard to achieve great things.

"I think he will die in a woman's hands sooner or later," Liu Yuzhu said.

"Wrong.

"You underestimate him too much.

"When a person can master rich resources through women.

"Beauty is no longer his weakness, but a sharp weapon he masters.

"If you don't have wings to fly to heaven, how dare you cross the Dragon Gate!"

Ma Hansan sneered and gently patted her elastic thigh:

"Someone who can be like a fish in water in Wu Jingzhong's hands is definitely not an ordinary person.

"You go back and pack up; you will follow him back to Jinhai this afternoon."

"Understood, Director," Liu Yuzhu accepted the order happily.

Beiping Inspection Office.

Wang Puchen lit another cigarette and puffed on it beautifully twice.

"Director.

"Ma Hansan and Secretary Liu secretly went to Nanluoguxiang to meet Secretary Hong from Jinhai."

A subordinate walked in and reported in a low voice.

"I know.

"Don't make a scene; go down," Wang Puchen nodded.

After the person left, he closed the door and quickly dialed Mao Renfeng's direct line:

"Director Mao.

"I am Renchu; Ma Hansan secretly met with Hong Zhiyou.

"I suspect Wu Jingzhong and Ma Hansan are highly likely to take action against Boss Dai; should I notify Boss Dai?"

After a while, he finished listening to Mao Renfeng's instructions and answered:

"Good, understood.

"Immediately withdraw the monitoring personnel; do not notify Boss Dai.

"Rest assured, not a single word will leak.

"Goodbye, Director Mao."

Wang Puchen hung up the phone.

Mao Renfeng didn't state it clearly on the phone.

But he implicitly expressed the meaning of letting him sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.

Wang Puchen was best at pondering the human heart.

Dai Li was colluding with the Americans; right now, from the Chairman above to ants like Hong Zhiyou below, everyone was hoping for Dai Li to die.

If he were to interfere in Ma Hansan's matter now.

That would be blocking the path of those above.

People would want his life!

Thinking of this, he shouted to the door:

"Someone."

After the subordinate entered, he instructed righteously:

"Immediately withdraw the personnel monitoring Director Ma.

"From now on, all investigations related to Director Ma are to be stopped."

"Yes," the subordinate accepted the order.

Wu Taixun's mansion.

Dai Li was drinking the soup boiled by Zhu Jiu himself, his face showing extreme fatigue.

Jinhai's mission was very heavy.

Firearms and artillery packaged from the Japanese islands, elite equipment for nearly two divisions, had to be transported to the Northeast and the Fifth War Zone.

It was currently under military mediation.

There were many American and Soviet reporters, so he had to be careful.

If it were leaked, the Chairman would be very passive in terms of public opinion.

What was hateful was that those idiots at the Ministry of Communications' Freight Bureau were too slow; even pointing a gun at their heads didn't work.

At this rate, it would take at least seven or eight days to get things done.

This ghost place was also having an epidemic.

That woman last night was also unsatisfactory.

Plus, Jinhai's altitude was low, and he was suffering from oxygen intoxication, dizzy and head-swollen all day.

Truly damn unacclimated.

"Bureau Chief, this morning, that little secretary of Wu Jingzhong went to Beiping," Wu Taixun said.

"Went to Beiping?

"Seeking refuge with Li Zongren, or colluding with Ma Hansan to stir up trouble?"

Dai Li's tone was dull, clearly not taking it too much to heart.

"It is said he went to see Ma Hansan," Wu Taixun said, handing over a photo.

"Huge dog guts."

Dai Li sneered, glanced at the photo, shook his head, and put it down:

"Tired from being messed with by these pigs at the Freight Bureau.

"Have to go to Qingdao later.

"This matter is endless; let's forget about tonight."

"Alright," Wu Taixun's eyes showed some panic.

Late last night, Dai Li had left the bedroom and changed rooms.

It seemed the person chosen wasn't to his taste.

On this trip to the north, he, the "great steward," was unqualified.

Just as he was worrying, Wang De walked in:

"Bureau Chief Dai, Mr. Wu, Hong Zhiyou requests an audience."
