This operation against the underworld finally came to an end in a special way.
For people like Jing Benhai and Lan Minsheng, this operation was obviously a failure. Although a large number of Hongyu was captured, there were only four corpses of the underworld personnel.
But for Li Nanke, it was undoubtedly a success.
He has lived up to Niu Daru's instructions before his death, and will not live up to Shi Yan's hard work over the years.
What he wants to do is to completely uproot the underworld.
The information that Chu Tiange can provide in the future is far more than this, and coupled with the list of officials left by Yu Shengtian, it can be said that Li Nanke has put a knife across the heart of the underworld.
Li Nanke believed he could do it without relying on the help of other people in the Night Patrol Division.
In the afternoon, he came to the prefect's Yamen.
After meeting the prefect Yuan Changxu, he asked straight to the point: "Master Yuan, do you know that your wife is from the underworld?"
Li Nanke's surprise question was unexpected by Yuan Changxu.
He was stunned for several seconds before he came back to his senses, his face suddenly turned gloomy, "Yuan can't understand what Mr. Li is talking about!"
"Okay, stop pretending."
Li Nanke ignored the other party's anger and said calmly, "I can confirm that you are not from the underworld, but it is puzzling to me. You clearly know that your wife is a fake, why don't you expose her."
"Did Mr. Li come here today to deliberately throw dirty water on me?"
Yuan Changxu continued to act stupid, pointed at the door and said angrily, "You are not welcome here, get out!"
"Really let me out?"
"roll!"
"good."
Li Nanke walked towards the door seriously, saying as he walked:
"Actually, it's easy to guess. Mr. Yuan must have something in your wife's hands, so you have been cooperating. Now I only need to catch your wife, and all the truth will naturally come to light."
"etc!"
Yuan Changxu stopped Li Nanke.
His face was uncertain, and he suppressed his anger and asked: "Li Nanke, what exactly do you want to do?"
"It's simple, we cooperate."
Li Nanke smiled slightly and stretched out his hand.
…………
It was late at night, and the moonlight shone through the window screens into the boudoir, shrouding everything in a silver halo.
The room was quiet.
A woman in a black robe sneaked into the room quietly.
The woman took off her black robe and lit the oil lamp on the table.
The small oil lamp emits a dim, warm light, revealing the exquisite porcelain tea sets from the darkness.
Also revealed was a jet black knife.
Seeing the strange long knife that suddenly appeared on the table, the woman's pupils shrank instantly, and she subconsciously wanted to rush out of the room, but she heard a man's voice coming from the corner, "If you want to live, don't seek death."
The woman froze her delicate body and turned to look at the man in the corner.
Under the semi-dark light, the man crossed his legs.
He held a firecracker in his hand.
The gun was loaded, and the black muzzle was pointed straight at the woman.
"It is said that the most dangerous place is the safest place, but anyone who believes this is a fool. It seems that Mrs. Chu is also a fool."
Li Nanke said with a smile.
The woman narrowed her eyes, "Did you guess that I would go back to my home?"
"It's not something you guessed, it's something you saw."
Li Nanke pointed to his eyes, "I have celestial eyes that can monitor your every move. No matter where you escape, I can find you."
"Ha~"
Obviously, the woman did not believe what the other person said.
Li Nanke did not explain, but asked with a smile: "So what should I call you? It seems inappropriate to call me Mrs. Chu. After all, you are also a fake."
Hearing this, the woman's expression was full of shock.
"how do you know--"
Halfway through her words, she suddenly realized something and her eyes widened, "Have you caught the envoy?"
Envoy?
Chu Tiange?
Li Nanke reacted in his heart, but there was no expression on his face, "This time your underworld operation failed, you have to take the blame, so you can't come back. To put it bluntly, now you are a lost dog."
"What, you want to threaten me?"
The woman sneered, her dark eyes flashed coldly, and she stared at Li Nanke and said,
"When I came in just now, I had already checked the outside, and there was no ambush. In other words, you are the only one in this room. How dare you threaten me with the firecracker in your hand?
Besides, do you have any evidence to prove that I am from the underworld?
I dare to come because I am the prefect’s wife. Without evidence, you can touch me!?"
"very funny."
Li Nanke was immediately happy when he heard it.
The next second, he pointed the gun directly at the woman's thigh and pulled the trigger.
boom!
The woman didn't expect that the other party would actually shoot, so she evaded reflexively, but her legs still spurred bright red blood.
She endured the pain without screaming, and stared at Li Nanke in horror, "You are crazy!!"
While scolding, she subconsciously locked the door bolt.
But strangely, the gunfire did not attract the servants, and everything was quiet inside and outside the courtyard.
Not even her "husband" Yuan Changxu made any move.
The woman was a little stunned and looked at Li Nanke with blank eyes, seeking an answer.
"Don't you understand? Your husband needs you to die."
Li Nanke said it thoroughly.
The woman's head was still a mess, and she wanted to ask, but she didn't know what to ask.
It wasn't until Li Nanke pressed the hot muzzle of the gun against her head that her distracted eyes finally regained some clarity and asked, "Did you threaten Yuan Changxu?"
"You are only allowed to threaten, but I am not allowed to threaten?"
Li Nanke smiled.
The woman lost her voice.
Li Nanke said: "Actually, with your level in the underworld, I can't ask for much useful information, so I only asked about two things. One is about the case of Yuan Zhenzhen three years ago. The other is about Yuan Xixi's case a few days ago.
case."
The woman remained silent.
But judging from the ever-changing expressions on her face, it was obvious that she was struggling internally.
"Why are you still hesitating? You don't have any conditions to negotiate with me, do you understand?"
Li Nanke patted the woman's cheek and said, "If you don't want to die, just answer my two questions. Why do you want to kill these two sisters? And make such a big fuss."
"Haha, do you think I killed them?"
The woman sneered.
Li Nanke pondered for a moment, shook his head and said:
"It's probably not Yuan Xixi. It was the woman named Qiu Xindie who secretly rained red rain on the little girl in order to avenge her brother Qiu Tianhao."
"So what you want to know is the case of Yuan Zhenzhen."
The woman's clear eyes looked directly into the man's eyes, "Then I can tell you that I didn't harm her.
The death of these two sisters will not do me any good. And whether you believe it or not, I even regard them as my own daughters, and there is no way I would kill them."
"I believe it, so you go and accompany them."
Li Nanke was about to pull the trigger.
"Wait a minute!" the woman suddenly said, "Don't you want to know why the underworld wants me to pretend to be Chu Yunxin?"
"Because she used to be from the underworld."
Li Nanke said lightly.
The woman nodded, "Yes, but the more important point is that the underworld does not want the two sisters Yuan Zhenzhen and Yuan Xixi to lose their mother."
"What's the meaning?"
Li Nanke was keenly aware that there was something hidden in the other person's words.
"These two sisters are not ordinary children, they-" The woman stopped abruptly in the middle of her words.
"go on."
Li Nanke frowned.
But the next second, he saw that the woman's eyes were like broken glass, full of cracks.
And between the woman's neck, there was a silver needle.
