Chapter 169

"Hurry and notify Captain Qi."

Xiao Guohua turned his head and ordered Jiang Zhi.

"I know your knife is fast.

"But I also crawled out of a pile of dead people; don't doubt the speed at which I pull the trigger."

Xiao Guohua's eyes were as calm as water, and his gun was as steady as a statue.

Old Sun knew that the other party was not an ordinary person.

The knife in his hand spun, wanting to make a desperate struggle.

"Move, and you're dead.

"Don't move, someone will save you."

Xiao Guohua said lightly.

He had always been in a key position in the Security Section, witnessing everything in the station from the shadows.

In the station.

Not to mention Yu Zecheng, whom Section Chief Liu was biting onto.

At least Hong Zhiyou had a deep relationship with the Red Ticket.

Xiao Guohua knew.

The Station Chief also knew.

But why did Wu Jingzhong turn a blind eye?

Besides making money, it was nothing more than seeking a way out.

He didn't want to do things too absolutely.

Xiao Guohua knew deeply that this person was from the Red Ticket anti-traitor squad.

The superiors were ambiguous with the Red Ticket, and he had a wife and children, so naturally, he didn't need to forge a deep hatred.

Old Sun slowly lowered his hand and dropped the knife.

"Section Chief Xiao, what's wrong."

Qi Qi Da Fu had just caught four soldiers and walked in triumphantly.

As soon as the words fell.

He saw the masked Old Sun and the bloody cloth bag on the ground.

"Ah!"

Qi Qi Da Fu's heart turned cold, and he roared towards the bed.

A man and a woman died tragically on the bed.

"I'll go to your eighteenth generation of ancestors.

"Who told you to kill him?

"Who told you to kill him?"

He turned around, grabbed Old Sun's collar, and roared.

"Traitors, all deserve to die!"

Old Sun smiled proudly.

Since he had succeeded, he could protect other comrades in the Central Plains and Pingjin areas.

Trading the lives of a few of them for their safety, this deal was worth it.

Old Sun had no regrets in his heart.

"Bastard!"

Qi Qi Da Fu was furious, knocked Old Sun down with a punch, rode on him, and beat him all over the head and face.

Xiao Guohua lit a cigarette and watched lightly from the side.

A moment later.

Old Sun was beaten until his nose was bruised and his face was covered in blood, and Qi Qi Da Fu finally stopped in hatred.

Xiao Guohua picked up the cloth bag and spread it out on the table.

Under the dim light, that bloody head.

Back hair...

Old Sun, who was still looking up proudly, had his pupils shrink, and his heartbeat accelerated suddenly.

It was a young man.

Not Yuan Peilin.

He, he missed!

In an instant, Old Sun's face turned ashen, and the pride in his eyes disappeared.

Seeing Xiao Guohua's cold eyes.

He finally understood the meaning of "waited for you for a long time."

From the beginning, this was a trap.

Wu Jingzhong, Li Ya, and even Qiao Jiacai were all cooperating in the act.

The purpose was to lure out his anti-traitor squad that had never missed.

Manager Luo and Sun Chuanzhi had both fallen for the trick.

"Captain Qi, hurry and report to Captain Li." Xiao Guohua reminded.

Qi Qi Da Fu finally came back to his senses, pointed at Old Sun, and walked out in a rage.

With trembling fingers, he dialed the phone uneasily:

"Hello, is this Captain Li?

"Yes, there is, there is good news.

"We caught the Red Ticket anti-traitor squad.

"But, but Guo Liang was killed.

"You better come over here quickly."

On this side, Xiao Guohua also went downstairs and found a public telephone booth.

He dialed Wu Jingzhong's number immediately:

"Station Chief, the one at Xiuchun Tower is dead.

"Yes, the head was cut off.

"It's not Yuan Peilin, it's his assistant Guo Liang.

"Two groups of people were caught at the scene; one group is Sun Chuanzhi's, and one group is the Red Ticket anti-traitor squad.

"The person was killed by the anti-traitor squad.

"Qi Qi Da Fu watched very closely, didn't let me and Jiang Zhi get close, and his attitude was very firm, so I didn't mention the assassination plan to Jiang Zhi.

"I guarantee he definitely didn't know.

"Okay, I understand."

Hung up the phone.

Xiao Guohua walked quickly back into the building.

Not long after, Li Ya arrived, and everyone went to Guo Liang's room together.

Looking at the head on the table.

Li Ya's face was livid, and his eyes fell on the blood characters on the table:

"Traitors must die!"

This was a proper slap in his face.

He loosened his slightly tight collar and turned to look at Qi Qi Da Fu:

"Dozens of people couldn't watch one living person.

"Is this what you called rest assured?"

"Captain Li, I..." Qi Qi Da Fu just wanted to explain.

Li Ya backhanded him with a heavy slap, knocking him over:

"Go explain to the Station Chief."

After speaking, he stared coldly at everyone:

"Take everyone back.

"Let Xiuchun Tower suspend business for a few days; no one is allowed to leave the building.

"Whoever dares to run out and gossip, I'll shoot them."

After giving instructions, Li Ya walked away quickly.

Guo Liang was dead.

For him, it was indeed a loss.

As long as Guo Liang was alive, he could be Yuan Peilin's shadow, reducing the risk of Yuan being exposed.

But dead, catching the anti-traitor squad and putting the Dangtong Bureau in a difficult position.

It wasn't a special loss.

After all, the one who truly held the intelligence clues was Yuan Peilin.

Guo Liang had lost his utility value since the day he betrayed and caught Yuan.

Keeping him was just a waste of food.

Let him die.

The reason he was angry.

Was purely because such a large manpower dispatch had quite a lot of daily expenses.

By borrowing reimbursement, he could scrape a lot of money.

Now that Guo Liang was dead, it was equivalent to cutting off one of his financial paths.

Qi Qi Da Fu, this damn idiot.

Xiuchun Tower was quickly cleared.

In a car across the street.

Wei Jin watched his two subordinates being pushed into the car.

"Finished!"

He ordered the driver with a livid face:

"Go back."

"Section Chief Wei, should I notify Director Sun?" The driver asked.

"Notify my ass.

"Go home and sleep first; we'll talk about tomorrow's business tomorrow."

Wei Jin lost his composure for a moment and simply ordered.

Inside the bookstore.

Luo Bing pushed open the door and walked into the inner room: "Manager, something happened."

"Did, did you miss?" Luo Anping asked with a drastically changed face.

"Not clear.

"Xiuchun Tower was sealed off; our people, including Old Sun, were all caught.

"But there were corpses carried out.

"Not sure if Yuan Peilin was among them."

Luo Bing reported.

"People died.

"If Yuan Peilin was eliminated, the plan wouldn't be considered a failure.

"Tomorrow, we must find Comrade Zecheng as soon as possible to confirm who died and arrange a rescue operation."

Luo Anping still held a glimmer of luck in his heart.

"Hmm." Luo Bing nodded.

Small courtyard.

Yu Zecheng and Cuiping were sitting on the bed, each hugging their knees; both were worried and had no sleepiness.

"Old Yu, do you think Old Luo and the anti-traitor squad will really take action tonight?" Cuiping asked.

"Very likely.

"They were made very nervous by Yuan Peilin.

"The organization issued a kill order.

"My opinion couldn't be reflected to the organization's superiors, and I couldn't persuade them at all."

Yu Zecheng nodded and said.

"Logically speaking, it's almost two o'clock; the guns should have sounded."

"It's possible the action was delayed.

"It's also possible that other situations arose and it was canceled."

He looked at his watch and said again.

"Not necessarily, it's also possible they used knives.

"In the past, our brigade had a pig butcher who slaughtered ghost soldiers with a knife in the middle of the night.

"With one knife, the neck would break."

Cuiping said.

"Hmm, it's also possible they used a silenced pistol.

"Sleep."

Yu Zecheng put down his coffee cup, ready to sleep.

"Silenced pistol?

"Is there such a thing?"

Cuiping clearly hadn't heard of it.

"Yes, that kind of advanced American pistol has a silencer added to the front, and the sound will be very small when fired." Yu Zecheng explained.

"Then is there a silenced machine gun?" Cuiping's eyes lit up, and she asked with surprise.

Yu Zecheng leaned into her ear and said solemnly:

"There is a silenced grenade, do you want it?"

"Annoying!"

Cuiping knew she was being teased and was so angry her teeth itched.

Yu Zecheng smiled on his face.

But a wave of ominous premonition surged in his heart.

Intuition told him that even if Old Luo succeeded, it wouldn't likely be Yuan Peilin.

If it was a trap, the comrades of the anti-traitor squad were probably already...

Thinking of this, Yu Zecheng walked to the telephone and dialed the police station's number:

"Hello, is this Detective Li? I am Yu Zecheng.

"Xiuchun Tower seems quite chaotic over there; did something happen?

"Is that so?

"Okay, understood, thank you."

Hung up the phone, Yu Zecheng looked at Cuiping, his expression serious:

"Something happened at Xiuchun Tower just now; Li Ya caught quite a few people.

"It's possible they are our people."

"Ah, what to do? If they confess Old Luo, you will be in danger." Cuiping frowned nervously.

"Don't panic.

"I'll go to the station tomorrow to see.

"Sleep first."

Yu Zecheng pulled open the quilt and fell asleep.

The next day.

Hong Zhiyou arrived at the station early to get busy.

He had received Xiao Guohua's call in the middle of the night about the Xiuchun Tower incident.

It was just as expected, so there were no big waves.

Eight-thirty.

Wu Jingzhong arrived at the office.

Li Ya followed him in.

"Secretary Hong, you go out first; I have something to discuss with Captain Li." Wu Jingzhong ordered.

Hong Zhiyou bowed slightly and retreated.

"Station Chief, Guo Liang was killed by the Red Ticket anti-traitor squad." Li Ya gritted his teeth and said, feeling a bit depressed.

"Are you sure it was the Red Ticket anti-traitor squad?" Wu Jingzhong asked.

"Should be.

"They left a blood note: the end of a traitor.

"They are already traitors, could it not be the Red Ticket?"

Li Ya said.

"Where is the note?" Wu Jingzhong asked.

"Here."

Li Ya took out a cloth bag, inside which was the blood-stained note.

Wu Jingzhong picked up the note and lit it with a match.

"Station Chief, what are you doing?" Li Ya raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise.

"Such an important person was killed by the Red Ticket; are you planning to establish their prestige and promote them?" Wu Jingzhong frowned and asked.

"Station Chief, what do you mean?" Li Ya's eyes turned, as if he realized something.

"I think some people probably didn't sleep all night last night.

"Scared and trembling in their quilts all night.

"Did those Red Tickets you mentioned open their mouths?"

Wu Jingzhong asked with a smile.

"No.

"The anti-traitor squad are all dead men; even after torture, they wouldn't say a word." Li Ya said.

"Very good.

"Remember, they are not the anti-traitor squad.

"They are assassins sent by the Dangtong Bureau.

"Ye Xiufeng put personal interests above public ones, deliberately sabotaging the great plan of Jiang Jianfeng and Director Mao to eliminate the Red Ticket, and the executor is Sun Chuanzhi of Jinhai.

"Isn't this hat good?"

Wu Jingzhong looked at Li Ya with a smile.

Li Ya thought for a moment, nodded, and said happily: "Extremely brilliant.

"Teacher, in this way, we can blame Guo Liang's death on Ye Xiufeng.

"Let Director Mao strike him again in front of the Chairman."

"You are wrong again." Wu Jingzhong pointed at him.

"Wrong again? Where did I go wrong?" Li Ya was confused.

"It's not that Guo Liang died.

"It's that Yuan Peilin died.

"I believe with your IQ, the Xiuchun Tower should be under martial law, right?"

Wu Jingzhong asked.

"Hmm.

"No one is allowed to step out of the building; there are special people guarding it." Li Ya said.

"Then Yuan Peilin is dead.

"Dispose of the corpse as soon as possible.

"In this way, we can protect Yuan and confuse the Red Ticket's hearing.

"More importantly, who in headquarters cares about a worthless person?

"Ye Xiufeng assassinated one of the founders of the Central Plains intelligence network, the dual leader of Beiping, Yuan Peilin; this is the serious crime."

Wu Jingzhong pointed at him and smiled with a seasoned squeeze of his eyes.

"Station Chief, if I don't say ginger is still spicier when old, Teacher is Teacher; I am convinced." Li Ya was impressed to the point of prostration.

"I can't work for many more years.

"You are still young; you must always surpass your teacher.

"That Qi Qi Da Fu, you must discard him.

"Someone must be responsible for this matter on the surface, and it must be a heavy sentence.

"Only then will people outside take it seriously."

Wu Jingzhong ordered.

"The problem is, headquarters must be reported to.

"Will they cooperate with us?"

Li Ya was still a bit worried.

Yuan is Yuan, Guo is Guo.

It's fine to play a prank in Jinhai, but dealing with big figures like Ye Xiufeng, reporting false information to headquarters will cause trouble.

"They will cooperate.

"Yuan was originally a dark move.

"As long as you can get dry goods from this person's mouth and make a contribution, whether he is alive or dead, it's the same in the eyes of headquarters.

"The grievances between Zhongtong and Juntong have existed for a long time.

"We have always been more ruthless to them than to the Red Ticket.

"Mao Renfeng is an old-school faction; he won't let go of this opportunity.

"Of course, don't rush to report it.

"See their attitude first.

"Maybe it will bring you unexpected gains."

Wu Jingzhong laughed with deep calculation.

"Understood.

"I listen to Teacher's arrangements." Li Ya nodded happily.

"Go, call the heads of each section to the conference room; Yuan is dead, the louder the wind and accountability, the better." Wu Jingzhong ordered.

"Yes." Li Ya accepted the order and left.

After the notification was completed.

Hong Zhiyou tucked in his fountain pen and walked towards the conference room.

Lu Qiaoshan and Yu Zecheng followed closely behind.

Facing them, they saw the Security Section people escorting Qi Qi Da Fu, who was full of unwillingness and resentment, towards the interrogation room.

"Yo, isn't this Captain Qi.

"Weren't you majestic yesterday?

"Why, this face is like a frost-beaten eggplant; where is your spirit?"

Lu Qiaoshan naturally wouldn't miss such a good opportunity to mock him.

Qi Qi Da Fu curled his lips, turned his head, and didn't dare to talk back.

"You tell Old Five, don't save it; this guy has big problems.

"At one glance, I can see he is a traitor who eats inside and out."

Lu Qiaoshan first put a pot on Qi Qi Da Fu.

"You!" Qi Qi Da Fu was so angry he was about to vomit blood.

"No, Old Lu.

"Catching people and holding meetings early in the morning, did something happen?"

Yu Zecheng asked with a feigned blank look.

"Something happened at Xiuchun Tower.

"Yuan was likely..."

Lu Qiaoshan made a beheading gesture with schadenfreude.

"No way.

"That was Captain Li and the Station Chief's precious gold nugget; the entire station's strength was drained, and he was still killed.

"This, this is also...

"Hurry, I guess the Station Chief will be furious today."

Hong Zhiyou urged hurriedly.

Arriving at the conference room, Wu Jingzhong sat expressionlessly.

"Everyone, have you heard?" Wu Jingzhong said.

"Heard what?" Lu Qiaoshan asked with a smile.

"Yuan Peilin was killed last night.

"Done by people from the Dangtong Bureau."

Wu Jingzhong tapped the table with his fingers, his anger rising.

"What a pity.

"This Yuan could have become our sharp sword.

"Didn't expect him to be consumed internally by the party and state.

"Having said that, as the Intelligence Division Chief, I actually didn't know at all that this Yuan had come to Jinhai.

"Station Chief, this intelligence work is done too well internally."

Lu Qiaoshan shook his head, his smile not lacking disdain.

"Division Chief Lu, it's not that I don't trust you.

"It's just that you have many people and eyes under you, and I'm afraid that if something happens, it will implicate you."

Li Ya said lightly.

"If you told me, I might not necessarily tell everyone.

"If there's any place that needs cover, I can also help you."

Lu Qiaoshan said with concern.

Saying this, he looked at the Station Chief: "Station Chief, if this person were in my Intelligence Division, he might not necessarily end up like this, right?"

"Alright, alright.

"Now, how to deal with Qi Qi Da Fu; Qiaoshan, why not leave the trial of this case to you.

"Remember, the key is whether there was collusion with the Dangtong Bureau.

"According to Section Chief Xiao's testimony, Qi Qi Da Fu once sternly refused Section Chief Xiao from entering to ensure Yuan's safety.

"Even the so-called soldier ghost trouble was self-directed and acted by Qi Qi Da Fu.

"The purpose was to let the Dangtong Bureau assassins in.

"This is your focus."

Wu Jingzhong instructed solemnly.

"Yes, Station Chief.

"I will definitely try it clearly."

Lu Qiaoshan wanted to mess with Qi Qi Da Fu, so he naturally couldn't ask for more.

"Good, then let's leave it at that; everyone go get busy." Wu Jingzhong waved his hand.

Returning to the office.

Wu Jingzhong said in a low voice:

"The Red Ticket killed a scapegoat last night.

"I still have to accompany this Li Ya in acting.

"Now the outside world should know that Yuan Peilin is dead; next, I will let Zheng Jiemin 'urge' Li Ya to make a contribution.

"Whether we can dig out Yuan Peilin depends on this one move."

Hong Zhiyou laughed: "Teacher, if he's a person, he will leave traces; Li Ya and Yuan Peilin will always show their feet.

"Now Ye Xiufeng should have received the wind.

"He will definitely pressure Sun Chuanzhi, taking advantage of the fact that this stench hasn't drifted to Jingling, to solve it internally.

"Sun Chuanzhi is a genuine miser.

"Remember Section Chief Kou of the Civil Affairs Committee?

"Sun Chuanzhi is the same kind of person, specializing in raising young lovers and hiding money.

"You worked hard to accompany Li Ya in acting for so long, you must earn some hard-earned money."

"You thought the same as me; the reason I suppressed this matter was for this meaning." Wu Jingzhong laughed knowingly.

Just as he was speaking, the phone rang.

Wu Jingzhong pointed at the phone and said: "Do you believe it, it's Sun Chuanzhi calling."

"I believe it.

"He is probably anxious like an ant on a hot pot right now.

"If you really strike him, he might even lose his head."

Hong Zhiyou laughed.

"Let him hang for a while." Wu Jingzhong didn't answer.

The phone rang until the third time before he answered:

"It's me.

"The good deed your subordinates did, Yuan Peilin's matter must have an explanation.

"Go tell these fart words to Ye Xiufeng and the Minister of National Defense.

"Once I interrogate the details, see you at the Jingling Military Court!

"Pah!"

Wu Jingzhong hung up the phone.

"Wait, he will soon find someone to come, and it must be someone to find you, the Jinhai expert." He laughed and said.

"Hmm.

"When the time comes, I will take Section Chief Yu to talk together.

"His asking price is more ruthless than mine."

Hong Zhiyou didn't forget to bring Yu Zecheng along.

"Hmm.

"Zecheng performed well this time, not wading into muddy water, not asking randomly.

"This looks like something.

"Look at that Lu Qiaoshan, jumping up and down for the position of deputy station chief; now he thinks he has taken advantage, but in my opinion, he will sooner or later fall into Li Ya's hands."

Wu Jingzhong commented and leaned back on the sofa:

"Sigh, didn't sleep all night last night.

"There is a meeting at the City Defense Bureau today; you call Lu Qiaoshan to go, I need to nap."

"Alright, Teacher." Hong Zhiyou accepted the order.

Hong Zhiyou returned to the office.

Yu Zecheng greeted him.

He hadn't said a word during the meeting just now.

One was to be steady and not talk much.

Another was to observe the expressions of Wu Jingzhong, Li Ya, and others in secret.

Unfortunately, he couldn't find any doubts on the old fox.

This made him feel a bit dazed for a while.

Old Luo really succeeded.

"Zhiyou, is Yuan really dead?" He asked impatiently.

"The one who died was his assistant Guo Liang." Hong Zhiyou didn't want to hide it from him.

"The interrogation rooms are all full; they aren't all people from the Dangtong Bureau, right?" Yu Zecheng frowned and asked.

"Nonsense.

"It's very clear the Station Chief doesn't want the Red Ticket involved.

"That's not raising your prestige; besides slapping the face, what benefit is there for him?"

Hong Zhiyou whispered.

"Could these people be from the anti-traitor squad?" Yu Zecheng asked.

"No need to ask, definitely.

"Prepare money.

"Since the Station Chief defined them as Dangtong Bureau, they should still be able to be fished out.

"It's nothing more than the price being high or low.

"Sun Chuanzhi's blood definitely isn't enough to suck; you find someone to release some?

"I'll go deliver the words."

Hong Zhiyou patted his shoulder and turned to walk towards the office.

Old Luo really fell into a pit.

Yu Zecheng stood frozen in place, not knowing whether to be sad or lucky for a moment.
