Chapter 77: I Know Everything About You (Seeking Monthly Tickets and Subscriptions)

Shaanxi Guild Hall!

Meng Jun looked at Yu Zecheng and finally remembered.

That was a surgery that remained fresh in his memory.

Yu Zecheng had been shot in the chest several times in a row.

At the time, he and his assistant had already concluded that this man was essentially beyond saving.

Unexpectedly, Yu Zecheng had a great life force and managed to snatch his life back from the hands of the King of Hell.

"Remembered?" Yu Zecheng asked with a smile.

"Yes."

"You are... a man from the Juntong Bureau." Meng Jun hesitated for a moment.

"That's right, I am a man from the Juntong Bureau."

Yu Zecheng nodded, a faint murderous intent permeating the slits of his swollen eyes.

Meng Jun's expression told him everything.

This man knew the identity of Boss Tie.

If he himself could go to the guild hall and have Boss Tie risk his life to save him, he could only be a comrade.

It was not hard to guess.

Meng Jun already knew he was a Red Agent.

This was very troublesome.

Meng Jun felt his skin crawl under his gaze, his lips trembling as he gave an awkward laugh:

"Director Yu, during the Japanese occupation, wasn't there cooperation between the Green and Red gangs?

"The guild hall once served as a transit station, helping many patriots from both parties; I didn't expect you to be from the Juntong Bureau.

"If I had known earlier, I would have paid a visit."

Empty talk, lies.

These words could only fool a three-year-old; they couldn't deceive Yu Zecheng.

He had witnessed with his own eyes Lu Zongfang die under Ma Kui's gun.

If the guild hall had ever rescued people from the Juntong Bureau, Ma Kui would have long since followed the trail to wipe them out completely; would he have waited for Wan Liliang to raid an empty building?

What was even more headache-inducing was:

That dog traitor Wan Liliang was still alive.

And he was serving as the director of the investigation office for the Shanghai Station Action Corps headquarters.

At present, the calls to purge traitors were very loud.

Wan Liliang was like a panicked stray dog and might not necessarily remember this matter.

But what if he remembered it one day?

When the time came for him to collude with Ma Kui and Mao Renfeng, the possibility of his own exposure would be very high.

"You're too kind.

"You saved my life; you are my benefactor, it should be me visiting you instead.

"How did you come to Jinhai?"

Yu Zecheng asked with a faint smile.

"Back then, Mr. Tie received word and evacuated in advance.

"I took a relocation allowance and returned to my hometown in Jinhai after the restoration," Meng Jun replied respectfully.

"Where is your wife from?" Yu Zecheng asked again.

"She is also a local, the cousin of Dean Ding Defeng's wife.

"It was also thanks to this connection.

"That I was able to come to the Army Hospital to work," Meng Jun said.

"Is that so.

"Your wife should also be a doctor, right?" Yu Zecheng continued to fish for information.

"She is not.

"We used to have some family property, but after my father-in-law passed away, that little bit of family business was squandered by the two siblings," Meng Jun said with a bitter smile and a shake of his head.

"I can tell that your wife is the one in charge."

Yu Zecheng pointed to the scratch marks on his face.

"You've seen me make a fool of myself," Meng Jun said.

Just as they were speaking, the door opened.

A woman wearing a cheongsam, quite plump and beautiful, walked in carrying fruit and greeted them with great familiarity:

"Old Meng, you are so oblivious.

"Director Yu is here, and you didn't even notify me."

Just this one sentence made Yu Zecheng's hair stand on end.

"What are you here for?" Meng Jun frowned and said.

"I'm here to see Director Yu.

"I've heard that Director Yu is a favorite of Station Chief Wu, a major, with a limitless future," the woman laughed coquettishly.

"This is..." Yu Zecheng asked.

"This is my wife, Chen Meizhi," Meng Jun introduced.

"Mrs. Meng, you are too kind," Yu Zecheng smiled and nodded.

"Director Yu, you and my Old Meng are very close, right?" Chen Meizhi brushed her hair and asked with a wink and a smile.

"What do you mean very close?

"I just met Director Yu," Meng Jun scolded.

He knew the methods of the Juntong Bureau well.

If this stupid woman kept asking, she would be digging her own grave.

"Strangers become friends after the first meeting.

"My ribs were set by Director Meng; we will have to see more of each other in the future," Yu Zecheng replied politely.

"It wouldn't be the first time.

"I heard people say that you killed traitors in Jingling before.

"What a coincidence, my Old Meng also stayed in Jingling before; you two should know each other."

Chen Meizhi was walking further and further down the road to her own death.

"Shut your mouth," Meng Jun raised his hand to pull her.

"Get off.

"I'm talking to Director Yu, do you have any room to interrupt?" Chen Meizhi clamored like a tigress.

"You..." Meng Jun stared at her, speechless.

"It's fine, Director Meng.

"I'll just chat with your wife," Yu Zecheng needed more information to make a judgment.

"Can you go out?" Chen Meizhi rolled her eyes at Meng Jun.

"You two talk."

Meng Jun walked out with his head hanging low.

"Director Yu.

"Before, when my friend said you were a Red Agent, I didn't believe it, but now it's hard not to," Chen Meizhi sat down by the hospital bed and said sarcastically.

"Mrs. Meng, for that remark alone, I could have you arrested.

"Who is your friend?

"Where did you hear that?"

Yu Zecheng's expression became serious.

When he was angry and gloomy, his presence was still quite intimidating.

"Don't try to scare me.

"My friend is your Action Team Captain, Ma Kui," Chen Meizhi said, trembling.

"Then you should know even better that because Ma Kui framed me, he has already been dismissed and sent to the headquarters inspection office for trial," Yu Zecheng said in an icy tone.

"Is that so?

"No wonder I haven't seen that dead ghost for several days, and he hasn't returned my calls."

Chen Meizhi muttered a sentence and laughed coquettishly:

"Don't try to scare me either.

"My Old Meng used to be at the Shaanxi Guild Hall, which was the old nest for Red Agents in Jingling.

"You were Lu Zongfang's man at the time.

"Boss Tie testified for you, saying you were rescued by someone, but the testimony of a Red Agent is simply not credible.

"On the contrary, you were the one saved by Boss Tie.

"And the one who performed the surgery was my Old Meng.

"Although Old Meng didn't say it, I can tell from his eyes that he is very afraid of you."

"Your Juntong Bureau is indeed imposing, but it shouldn't go so far as to frighten someone who just performed surgery on you and is your benefactor."

"Wouldn't he be happy to have gained an extra connection to a key member of the Jinmen Station?"

"The only explanation is that you are a Red."

"Old Meng is afraid that if your secret is leaked, he will face a fatal disaster."

Chen Meizhi stared at Yu Zecheng, analyzing him word by word.

"You're quite good at making things up," Yu Zecheng laughed.

"Of course."

"I was previously a secretary at the Zhongtong Station, and Old Meng doesn't know that either."

"I just had a falling out with Station Master Sun's wife and was fired."

"You are Juntong, and I am Zhongtong."

"If Dai Li or our Bureau Chief Ye Xiufeng found out that the hero who once assassinated Li Haifeng is a Red, what do you think they would do to you?"

Chen Meizhi threatened.

"Then you can go report me right now," Yu Zecheng smiled indifferently.

"Wan Lilang is in Shanghu; perhaps you two can meet up another day and have a cup of sake," Chen Meizhi said.

"What do you want?" Yu Zecheng asked.

"Nothing much."

"It's just that I've lost a bit too much playing mahjong lately."

"The casino is hounding me for debts, so I wanted to ask Section Chief Yu for some help in the underworld."

"Not much, just give me thirty or fifty thousand US dollars, or a few thousand silver dollars will do."

Chen Meizhi opened her mouth and demanded an exorbitant price.

She knew Yu Zecheng was a favorite of Wu Jingzhong and must have skimmed plenty.

How could she be content without slaughtering this fat fish completely?

"You'd better go find Wan Lilang; he's much richer than I am," Yu Zecheng raised his hand to see her out.

This woman's heart was as venomous as a scorpion's.

Once targeted by her, it would be a fight to the death.

"Fine, then let's wait and see. It just so happens that I have a pretty good relationship with Section Chief Peng of the Shanghu Zhongtong Station."

"I'm flying to Shanghu tonight."

"Perhaps Captain Wan will be able to recall something!"

Chen Meizhi continued to threaten, unwilling to give up.

Yu Zecheng maintained his smile and said nothing.

"You'd better think it over carefully."

"Three days. If I don't see the money, we'll meet at the Juntong Inspection Office."

Chen Meizhi waved her hand and wiggled her hips as she left.

Outside the door.

Hong Zhiyou let his eyes sweep over her, laughing playfully:

"Mrs. Meng, take care."

"Secretary Hong, let's play cards together another day; my skills are really good," Chen Meizhi pointed her jade finger at his chest and laughed charmingly.

"I would love to," Hong Zhiyou winked and laughed.

After she left.

Hong Zhiyou made sure no one was around, quickly closed the door, and entered the ward:

"Exposed?"

"Yes."

"Ma Kui was able to investigate as far as the Meng Army; he must know quite a bit of inside information."

"This woman used to be a Zhongtong intelligence agent."

"She is very formidable."

Yu Zecheng let out a breath and scratched his numb scalp.

"Zhiyou, this time is even more dangerous than Shopkeeper Qiu; you have to help me," he looked at Hong Zhiyou helplessly.

"You really are a jinx, a harbinger of bad luck."

"I shouldn't have known you," Hong Zhiyou was extremely annoyed.

"You're a good person; help me all the way to the end," Yu Zecheng apologized with a forced smile.

"Fine."

"When the day comes that I end up on your Elimination Squad list, you'll have to pull me out too," Hong Zhiyou said, taking precautions.

"Tell me about the current situation," he said.

"Wan Lilang worked with me and personally investigated the clubhouse."

"My original files have his signature on them."

"If he jumps out to bite me, it will be very troublesome; I will definitely have to go to the Inspection Office for tea."

"The only advantage now is that the originals are here."

"As long as Wan Lilang doesn't bite me, I already have enough filth on me; I'm not afraid of a few more buckets being poured on."

Yu Zecheng said.

"These two cannot be kept," Hong Zhiyou decided decisively.

"Doctor Meng saved my life."

"Moreover, this person has superb medical skills and is a rare surgical expert."

"He has also been with Boss Tie for many years."

"Such talent is scarcer than gold in the border region; he is our own Bethune."

Yu Zecheng had received personal instruction from Ke Gong in the border region.

Ke Gong had an important directive regarding elites close to the Red side: win over their hearts and strive to retain talent.

Hong Zhiyou remained silent, not expressing his stance.

Every person and every organization has its own way.

There is no absolute right or wrong.

He was not qualified to use the perspective of a modern person to comment on the strategic thinking of those visionary masters of the past.

"Get rid of his wife first."

"Then find Mr. Yong to work on his ideology."

"As long as Chen Meizhi and Wan Lilang are gone."

"With the Station Master's Empress Dowager Cixi night-luminescent pearl, other things are just rumors and gossip; they won't be able to break my golden body."

Yu Zecheng said.

"I don't care, just don't regret it," Hong Zhiyou walked to the window and lit a cigarette.

"Thanks," Yu Zecheng smiled.

Hong Zhiyou casually turned on the large radio by the wall.

This was a privilege of the special care ward.

A high-pitched female voice on the broadcast was reciting:

"Today, the Chairman and Officer Dai met with anti-Japanese fighter Wei Guilong in Jingling. The Chairman personally awarded Wei Guilong the rank of Major and encouraged all colleagues to be like Wei Guilong, heroically killing the enemy, remaining steadfast and unyielding, for the Party and State..."

Wei Guilong!

Such a familiar name.

He remembered.

This person was the very officer who would later personally execute Wan Lilang.

A flash of inspiration struck Hong Zhiyou's mind.

"Old Yu, I've got it. I know how to get rid of Wan Lilang," he turned around, his face full of joy, and said in a low voice.

Big bosses, there are two more updates this afternoon.
