Chapter 71

Wu Jingzhong looked coldly at Shopkeeper Qiu.

"The Station Master is asking you?"

"Whether you are a Red agent or not, think clearly before answering."

Lu Qiaoshan looked at the trembling Shopkeeper Qiu, his tone extremely gentle.

"I, I..." Shopkeeper Qiu's lips trembled, and he stuttered, unable to speak.

"Don't be afraid."

"The Station Master and Director Li will make the decision for you."

"Speak."

Lu Qiaoshan handed him a cup of tea.

Shopkeeper Qiu was extremely thirsty, poured it into his mouth, and choked, coughing straight away.

Yu Zecheng's heart hung in the air.

He understood Shopkeeper Qiu's divine game.

Shopkeeper Qiu did not betray the organization.

He brought out Mei Qiuju, Hu Die, and Zhu Jiu.

With these three gods present, even if Mao Renfeng came, he wouldn't dare to convict Shopkeeper Qiu.

Right now, Li Shizhen wants to kick Boss Dai out of the police system.

Zheng Jiemin, the CC, and Jianfeng are all tearing at each other crazily.

Even the Chairman has become suspicious because Dai Li is getting too close to the Americans and is trying to compete for the Navy Commander.

Not to mention the internal Mao Renfeng, Tang Zong, Ma Hansan, and others who are insincere.

Boss Dai's days are not easy.

At this time, any drop of dirty water could become the fuse for an explosion.

Once Shopkeeper Qiu is confirmed to be a Red agent.

Hu Die will become that fuse.

Wu Jingzhong will be in big trouble.

Dai Li will be attacked by everyone.

Therefore, except for an idiot like Ma Kui, no one wants to, and no one dares to admit that Shopkeeper Qiu is a Red agent.

Yu Zecheng knew: he was safe.

But Wu Jingzhong and Dai Li have lost face, and in order to eliminate hidden dangers, Shopkeeper Qiu cannot escape death.

"I, I'll say."

"I don't know any Red agents, it was all Captain Ma who told me to say so." Shopkeeper Qiu caught his breath and took the initiative to confess.

"Son of a bitch."

"When did I say they were Red agents?" Ma Kui shouted.

"Plug his mouth." Lu Qiaoshan ordered.

Someone immediately took a blood-stained rag and stuffed it into Ma Kui's mouth.

"Wuu wuu!" Ma Kui struggled desperately.

"Officer Ma didn't say it."

"But he said if I didn't entertain, he would beat me to death."

"As long as I wrote out the list, he would let me go."

When Shopkeeper Qiu said this, tears fell like rain:

"Officers, I really couldn't stand the beating."

"So, I wrote this list."

"Why did you write them?" Lu Qiaoshan asked.

"Captain Ma said, pick important people to write."

"These people come to my shop usually, either wearing gold and silver, or driving cars."

"At a glance, they are not ordinary people, I could only pick them to write."

Shopkeeper Qiu explained.

"Where did the addresses come from?" Lu Qiaoshan asked again.

"There are many people with rhinitis recently."

"The shop is short of cicada slough and wood butterfly, usually I make them up and send them to them."

"So, they left their addresses."

"If, if you don't believe me, ask the two Madams."

Shopkeeper Qiu wiped his tears and pointed to the two Madams, pleading.

"Is that so?" Wu Jingzhong asked coldly.

"Yes, yes."

"You can't smell the Chinese medicine, so I teamed up with Jiu'er, and we usually boiled it in her small courtyard."

Mei Qiuju testified in a low voice.

Zhu Jiu also nodded.

"Ma Kui, what else do you have to say?" Lu Qiaoshan waved his hand, and Old Five took out the rag from Ma Kui's mouth.

"Station Master, believe me."

"This person really is a Red agent, this is all a setup."

"I, I can get the evidence right away, you, you must believe me."

Ma Kui was anxious, shaking the chair until it creaked.

"Evidence?"

"Did you find a radio transmitter, or a witness?" Lu Qiaoshan asked.

"I..."

Ma Kui wanted to speak but stopped, choosing to remain silent in hatred.

"Station Master, the matter is already very clear."

"Captain Ma, in order to frame Director Yu, Miss Hu, and the two Madams, dragged you into the water, intending to seek the position of Deputy Station Master, that's why he maliciously arrested Shopkeeper Qiu and forced a confession."

Lu Qiaoshan summarized very wittily.

He didn't care who was a Red agent.

As long as Ma Kui was unlucky, couldn't make a contribution, and was hated by the Station Master, he would be very happy.

"Lu Qiaoshan, you despicable and shameless villain, don't splash dirty water on my head."

"When did I want to be Deputy Station..."

Ma Kui was so angry his lungs were about to explode.

"Enough!"

Wu Jingzhong slapped the table in anger: "If you dare to be stubborn again, I'll shoot you."

"Section Chief Lu, close the case." He ordered.

"Station Master, you say." Lu Qiaoshan said respectfully.

"Ma Kui acted without reporting, violating discipline."

"Maliciously arrested civilians and forced a confession."

"In order to seek promotion, framed colleagues."

"The evidence is conclusive, immediately transfer to the Headquarters Inspection Office for legal processing."

Wu Jingzhong ordered sternly.

"Station Master, there are two more, right?" Lu Qiaoshan said with a smile.

"Hmm?" Wu Jingzhong narrowed his eyes and looked at him.

"Captain Ma, as a field officer, extorted subordinates like Mi Zhiguo and Wen Shiming."

"He has a family, but privately patronized prostitutes."

"These are all violations of family rules."

Lu Qiaoshan looked at Ma Kui and added.

"Station Master, I went to Beautiful Spring Tower to catch..." Ma Kui wanted to explain, but swallowed it hard.

"Last time you went to Beautiful Spring Tower, you also said it was a mission."

"As a result, you ruined the shocking plan of the Station Master and the Bureau Chief."

"This time it's catching Red agents again?"

"Ma Kui, can you put away your clumsy performance and come up with some new words?"

Lu Qiaoshan shook his head and laughed jokingly.

"Lu Qiaoshan, I'll fucking kill you!" Ma Kui roared with gritted teeth.

"Station Master, look, the dog is jumping over the wall." Lu Qiaoshan laughed with sympathy.

"Write down all five major crimes, and immediately transfer to the Jingling Headquarters Inspection Office." Wu Jingzhong ordered irritably.

"Station Master, what about this Shopkeeper Qiu?" Lu Qiaoshan asked.

"His problem still has some details that need investigation."

"Lock him up for a while."

"Also Director Li, it's autumn recently, shouldn't the detectives under you go and clean up?"

After Wu Jingzhong finished speaking, he walked out angrily with his hands behind his back.

Returning to the Station Master's office.

"Secretary Hong, call Section Chief Liu to come over." Wu Jingzhong ordered.

Hong Zhiyou took the order and went to call Liu Xiong.

Liu Xiong walked in.

Hong Zhiyou very perceptively closed the door and went to the outer table to keep watch.

"You've been watching with your eagle eyes for a long time, what did you see?" Wu Jingzhong asked his old subordinate.

"Station Master."

"The one surnamed Qiu has a problem."

"I don't think it's a coincidence that Miss Hu and your wife were arrested."

"First confess, then retract."

"On the surface, it looks like he couldn't stand the beating, but in reality, he is clearly acting."

"Only a Red agent could pull off such a divine game."

Liu Xiong analyzed sharply.

"Do you mean Zecheng is in cahoots with him?" Wu Jingzhong frowned.

"I have no evidence."

"If I say Yu Zecheng is, then your wife and Miss Hu are suspicious."

"I can only say that intuitively, he is."

"His ex-girlfriend Zuo Lan has close dealings with the people at No. 50 Zengjiayan, and has published pro-Communist articles and remarks."

"Lü Zongfang is an important Red agent who has been hidden inside the party and state for many years."

"Boss Dai said, an agent must always maintain suspicion!"

"Just because of these two points, Yu Zecheng can never get rid of suspicion."

Liu Xiong said bluntly.

"Yes."

"Qiu's hand was played wonderfully."

"I can neither believe nor suspect." Wu Jingzhong had his hands behind his back, feeling a headache.

"You transferred Director Yu here, this itself..." Liu Xiong didn't dare to continue.

He always felt that Yu Zecheng had a problem.

Like a shadow covering the station, if it's not removed for a day, his heart feels blocked.

"Things can't be seen this way."

"Boss Dai also said personally that Yu Zecheng is a hero of the party and state, and a model for all colleagues in the bureau."

"Use people but suspect them, suspect people but still use them."

Wu Jingzhong was still satisfied with Yu Zecheng.

The key is, Yu Zecheng must not be a Red agent.

At least not right now.

"You personally escort Ma Kui to Jingling." After a pause, Wu Jingzhong ordered.

"Should I finish him off?" Liu Xiong said.

"No."

"Mao Renfeng has a lot of prejudice against me right now."

"If Ma Kui dies, he will definitely make an issue of Hu Die, which will be disadvantageous to Boss Dai and me."

"Throw this hot potato to Mao Renfeng."

"Let him report and handle it with Boss Dai personally, it can be considered selling him a favor."

Wu Jingzhong said with deep calculation.

"What about Qiu Ji?" Liu Xiong asked again.

"If this person is interrogated too much, it will cause trouble."

"Hand him over to Warden Song for strict supervision, solitary confinement."

"Let the spies you planted in the prison keep an eye on him, don't miss anyone who has contacted him."

Wu Jingzhong sneered cunningly.

"Understood."

"If the one surnamed Qiu is really a Red agent, his accomplices will definitely not be able to sit still, and then we can catch them all in one net." A look of reverence appeared in Liu Xiong's eyes.

"This is just one."

"If we really catch the Red agent behind him, Miss Hu Die will become a hero who lured the enemy with her body."

"Won't Boss Dai be happy?" Wu Jingzhong said.

"Not just Hu Die, your wife is also a hero." Liu Xiong flattered.

"Go do it."

Wu Jingzhong waved his hand with a smile.
