Old Bacon's judgment was not wrong at all.

As soon as the contact person showed up, he was immediately arrested.

During the arrest, the old bacon ducked under the table, fearing that a gunfight would break out and hurt him.

Qiu Xingchang and Tang Zhang reacted very quickly and controlled the agent before he pulled out his pistol.

There is also a small episode in it.

The man in the long gown thought that the other party was here to arrest him, and was about to jump up with the box and run away, but he did not expect that Meng Shaoyuan, who had been prepared for it, flew up the teacup and hit him on the head.

After taking control of him, he opened the box and took a look. Old Bacon's judgment was confirmed again:

The box was all filled with smoke.

This operation kills two birds with one stone.

After going back for interrogation, the truth came out.

The agent didn't say anything, and the person who came to interact with him peed his pants as soon as he arrived in the interrogation room.

His name is Wu Shangan, and he is a person in Chongqing who is responsible for arranging accommodation for government officials at all levels in Chongqing. Although his official position is not high, he has great power.

Those government officials who came from Nanjing would give him a lot of benefits in order to obtain a good accommodation environment.

And it was through this that he mastered a large amount of information about officials.

As a result, he was quickly noticed by the Japanese special agency and successfully pulled him into the water. He successively provided a lot of intelligence to the Chongqing branch of the Japanese special agency "Sakura Club" and attracted the attention of the Japanese army's secret service.

Through the introduction of the "Sakura Club", Wu Shang'an came today to meet with Lieutenant Tatsuya Ishii of Japan who had just arrived in Chongqing.

This unfortunate Lieutenant Ishii was successfully captured on his second day in Chongqing.

Qiu Xingchang and Tang Zhang were convinced.

This time I really accepted it.

Old bacon's vision is so vicious?

"I have been a policeman for so many years. You can tell who are the good guys and bad guys in Chongqing, which road leads to where, and who is new." The old bacon did not brag at all, in front of Meng Shaoyuan.

He said: "I don't have any abilities, but my brain can remember things, identify people, and tell who has evil intentions."

"This is a great skill, old bacon." Meng Shaoyuan opened the drawer and took out two rolls of oceans: "Here is a hundred oceans for you."

The old bacon was startled: "I'm giving it to you this time."

"That's right, you gave it to me. Logically speaking, I don't have to give you money." Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "But you are a capable person, and I am happy to give him money. You make money based on your skills, and you don't feel guilty. You just

Help me catch those Japanese traitors. I'm in Chongqing, so come directly and ask me for money. If I'm not here, you go to Henglong Company to collect the reward."

"Then I won't be polite." The old bacon smiled broadly and put away his words.

"I have one more thing to ask you."

"Tell me, what do you want me to do?"

"Take care of those young men."

The old bacon fell silent and did not answer immediately.

Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "These young people have not been in this business for long. They are enthusiastic and motivated, but unfortunately they have no experience. They need people like you to guide them along the way."

"Sir Meng." The old bacon looked bitter: "I am relying on so many years of experience. How can I teach others?"

"Tell me, old bacon." Meng Shaoyuan glanced at him: "Whatever conditions do you want before you agree, just ask, I, Meng Shaoyuan, will help you with everything."

The old bacon was silent again.

After a long while, he asked tentatively: "Can you really do anything?"

Meng Shaoyuan answered without hesitation: "As long as you don't ask me to betray national interests, I will help you resolve all your personal matters."

"There is one thing, if you do it for me, my life from now on, old bacon, will be yours." Old bacon finally said.

"What did you say?"

"A hundred miles out of Chongqing, there is a place called Yanzui Village." Old Bacon's tone was a little dry: "There are about a hundred households living there, and they have been honest people for generations. There is a gang nearby.

The leader of the bandits is Liang Shengfu, nicknamed "Liang Shao'er". He is causing harm to the place and doing evil. The people of Yanzui Village have suffered miserably from him. Chief Meng, I beg you, I beg you, old bacon, please bring Liang Sha'er to justice.

After eradicating this bastard, let’s bring peace to Yanzui Village.”

"What does this have to do with you?" Meng Shaoyuan asked.

"What does it have to do with me? Of course it has something to do with me." Old bacon laughed miserably: "That happened in the 31st year of Guangxu's reign. I was a patrolman. That time, we caught a bandit, Liang Shengfu. He and

I said that he was actually a member of the Revolutionary Party and had come to Chongqing to do great things. If I could let him go, the Revolutionary Party would definitely be very grateful to me.

At that time, many people in Sichuan sympathized with the Revolutionary Party, and I was no exception. At that time, I had been promoted to squad leader, and I thought to myself, the Revolutionary Party is a good person, we cannot kill them. So I risked losing my head.

, quietly let him go, but later the matter was revealed. If the Qiu family hadn't helped me with a lot of money, I would have lost my head.

The Qiu family had enough money, and Liang Shengfu came up and ran away on his own. Not only was my life saved, but I could still be a patrol officer, but my position as squad leader was gone. I thought I had done a great thing, but

I never thought that Liang Shengfu, this beast, is not only not a revolutionary party at all, but also a scoundrel who does all kinds of evil!"

Liang Shengfu gathered a group of people again, burned, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of bad things.

Later, when the Wuchang Uprising was successful and the "Han Sichuan Military Government" was established, Liang Shengfu was recruited and appointed as a battalion commander.

But he felt that being an official did not give him freedom. After Yin Changheng was deceived and imprisoned in Beijing, Liang Shengfu simply became a bandit again. And he got worse and caused harm to the place.

When Liu Xiang came to power in Sichuan, he carried out several attacks on him, causing heavy losses. Originally, the bandit could be wiped out in one go, but later the two Lius fought for Sichuan, which allowed Liang Shengfu to recover.

"After that, Liang Shengfu kept a low profile and has been active in the Yanzui Village area." Old Bacon said bitterly: "After that, Yanzui Village was living in a nightmare, and it was ruined by him. Back then, it was a nightmare.

If I hadn't been blind and let him go, there wouldn't be Liang Shao'er, and Yanzui Village wouldn't be like this. It's all my responsibility.

I once went to Liang Shu'er and met him, begging him to stop for the sake of past friendship, but Liang Shu'er told me that if I hadn't saved him back then, I wouldn't have thought of leaving alive.

. I wanted to argue with him, but in the end, he just kicked me out and put down my words. If I dared to show up again, he would take off my legs."

Meng Shaoyuan had been observing his expression when he spoke.

Memories...anger...self-blame...

With deep regret, hatred for Liang Shaoer, and contempt for himself.

Especially the contempt for oneself, which is something that cannot be faked even if it is rehearsed, it is a pure and true expression.

real.

Everything the old bacon said is true.

"Old bacon, there's something strange about me."

Meng Shaoyuan still asked his doubts: "Since Liang Shao'er is so domineering, why don't the villagers of Yanzui Village run away?"

"Run? How come they never wanted to run?" Old Bacon sighed: "But Liang Shao'er, that bastard, came up with a way to harm the men in Yanzui Village as soon as they turned ten years old.

In the bandit's den, firstly, he waits for them to grow up to strengthen his power, and secondly, it is also to use the children to control the villagers.

He also specifically explained that the continuous sitting method was implemented. If a villager ran away, an innocent child would be killed. If anyone reported on other villagers who were planning to run away, they would be rewarded to ensure that their children were okay.

As a result, everyone is concerned about their children and is afraid that others will run away, and Yanzui Village is firmly controlled by Liang Shaoer."

This is a way.

Although it was very cruel, it firmly held the lives of these villagers.

"Sir, I only have one request." Old Bacon gritted his teeth and said, "Get rid of Liang Shao'er and atone for my sins. I will give you my life if you ask for it in the future."

How can it be that easy?

It is more than a hundred miles away from Chongqing, and Liang Shaoer has been entrenched here for a long time. How can it be easily wiped out?

Besides, if we really want to take action, we must mobilize troops and generals. If there is a big movement and someone discovers it, it is not a trivial matter to mobilize paramilitary forces without permission.

What's even worse is that if the military agents cause too many casualties, even Dai Li may not be able to protect himself.

Meng Shaoyuan wanted to kill Liang Shao'er and restore peace to the villagers of Yanzui Village, but this was not something he could have the final say on.

"Old Bacon, I know about this." Meng Shaoyuan frowned and said, "But how to do it requires careful preparation. Don't be in a hurry. You can go out first, and I will tell you after I think of a perfect solution.

.”

…

what else can we do?

"Sir Meng." Qiu Xingchang hurriedly walked in: "You asked me to send people to monitor the You family and his son, who have left Chongqing."

"What? Leave Chongqing?"

"Well, the people I sent to monitor were inexperienced. By the time we found out, they had already left Chongqing."

"Do you know where you're going?"

"This direction." Qiu Xingchang came to the map and pointed: "We followed all the way and disappeared when we arrived near Huohuo Mountain. Our people asked around and found that someone had seen a pair of people who looked like a father and son.

A group of bandits kidnapped me."

"Kidnapped by bandits?" Meng Shaoyuan was startled and quickly stared at the map for a long time: "Qiu Xingchang, how far is Huohuo Mountain from Yanzui Village?"

"About thirty or forty miles."

"How many groups of bandits are there?"

"It seems to be just one group, right?" Qiu Xingchang thought for a moment: "The leader's name is Liang Shengfu, nicknamed Liang Shao'er. He is a habitual bandit. He has been suppressed before, but not completely. He has no time to deal with them now."

"This is unreasonable! Why are the bandits so rampant!" Meng Shaoyuan slammed the table and said angrily: "Chongqing is a dignified city, and the government is with the capital, how can we allow bandits to wreak havoc? I want to send troops to suppress the bandits!"

Huh? Qiu Xingchang was startled.
