If you want to successfully catch Ozawa Seishiro and that poisonous beauty, you must set up a trap cleverly. To set up the trap, you need a bait, and An Gonggen happens to be the most tempting bait.
The Shanghai Police Department has almost forgotten about An Gonggen, but Ozawa will not forget it. They still regard the capture of An Gonggen as an important task. If they dare to assassinate Commander Shigeru Honjo, they are contemptuous of the Japanese military and the Empire of Japan.
.
An Gonggen and the other four escaped successfully, which made them feel extremely humiliated. Several people planned to commit suicide by committing seppuku, and were severely reprimanded by Seishiro Ozawa.
"You have plenty of opportunities to devote yourself to the empire. Don't rush now. Please avenge your shame!" Ozawa roared.
"Mr. Lu, we are back."
Three days later, An Gonggen came back and went straight to Wanguo Apartment to meet Lu Ming.
"Okay, I have something to discuss with you. Is everything going well for you in Nanjing?"
"Thank you Mr. Lu for the arrangement. We are so comfortable in Nanjing that our bones are itching. It's good, but for people like us, there is no difference between a comfortable life and passing out." An Gonggen said with a smile.
"Working requires a balance between work and rest, and the same applies to fighting. One cannot always tense up one's nerves, and then return to the battlefield after a while to relax and have more strength to kill the enemy."
"Killing the Japanese and sacrificing for the motherland is our most cherished cause." An Gonggen was very stubborn, and Lu Ming could only nod in appreciation.
The two chatted for a while before Lu Ming turned to the topic.
"Do you still remember being trapped in the apartment by the Japanese? At that time, they mobilized the underground spy organization in Shanghai, and more than a hundred people surrounded us." Lu Ming said with emotion.
"Of course I remember, how could I forget such a thing." When An Gonggen heard this, he immediately felt angry. This incident was also a lifelong humiliation for them. They are not afraid of death and can sacrifice their lives at any time, as long as they die well.
, but last time, the Japanese almost made them die like mice.
"Now that the opportunity has come, do you want to take revenge?" Lu Ming asked in a low voice.
"Do you still need to ask? Does Mr. Lu want to give us a chance for revenge?" An Gonggen asked excitedly.
"For both you and myself, we can cooperate and catch a few Japanese who surrounded us last time, but we can't kill them. After catching them, you can humiliate them as much as you want, but they must live." Lu Ming emphasized.
Only catch but not kill.
"Is Mr. Lu worried that killing them will trigger crazy revenge from the Japanese?" An Gonggen narrowed his eyes and asked.
"No, I'm not afraid of revenge, because they are valuable only when they are alive. I need living Japanese people in exchange for one of my friends." Lu Ming said.
"I understand, this is a fighting strategy." An Gonggen nodded.
He is not only an expert in explosives and assassinations, but also a master in kidnapping hostages.
As the saying goes, listen to what you are told. As soon as Lu Ming opened his mouth, he understood that a fellow friend had fallen into the hands of the Japanese, so several hostages were needed in exchange.
Lu Ming nodded. It would be easier to talk to someone with combat experience and there would be no need to explain too much.
"Mr. Lu's friends are our friends, what do you want us to do?" An Gonggen went straight to the point.
"I have to ask you about this. It's best for you to set up a bureau, send people as bait, introduce those Japanese into the bureau, and capture them in one fell swoop." Lu Ming made a chicken-catching gesture.
An Gonggen lit a cigarette and looked at the ground, obviously deep in thought.
"In this process, no lives should be lost. This is the bottom line. If you can't do it, I won't cooperate with you." Lu Ming said seriously.
"No problem, we will definitely find a way to make them fall into the trap obediently." An Gonggen said.
If An Gonggen's idea is to follow, of course the Japanese will be killed if they are caught. If these invaders and these beasts are not killed, what are they doing here?
For the Korean righteous people, the Japanese nation is not worthy of living on earth and should all be killed because they are too cruel to the Korean people.
Lu Ming certainly disagrees with this idea. In his opinion, any nation has good people and bad people. At least among the Japanese he has come into contact with, there are good people like Kenta.
People like Kenda may only be a minority among the Japanese, but they exist after all and cannot be generalized. What’s more, there are many Japanese elderly, women and children, and there are many kind-hearted people among them.
The two people were discussing carefully in the room how to make this game to lure Ozawa and the others out. After half a day, a clever game was finally figured out.
Most of the credit for this belongs to the expert An Gonggen. Lu Ming just provided information, checked for omissions and filled in the gaps, making the game more clever and natural.
"Then start preparations, but you must make it clear to your brothers that people must live and no lives should be taken. If anyone disagrees, they cannot participate in this operation." Lu Ming reminded again.
"Please rest assured, Mr. Lu, my men will resolutely obey orders." An Gonggen said confidently.
Lu Ming nodded. This iron-blooded organization must have iron-clad discipline, otherwise it would have been eliminated long ago.
An Gonggen came quietly and left quietly. Almost no one noticed this mysterious visitor, and no one would have thought that this man had just designed a big conspiracy.
After An Gonggen left, Yuan Mingzhu came back from Du Juan and asked with a smile: "What are you and this guy doing in a mysterious way?"
"No, I just wanted to help them clean up their troubles. They said they didn't need it, so they just started gossiping." Lu Ming said with a smile.
"Just lie to ghosts. Even ghosts won't believe it." Yuan Mingzhu said scornfully.
"By the way, you, the young master, should reimburse me for the money I spent on clothes, jewelry and cosmetics for Du Juan these days. She is yours." Yuan Mingzhu said and took out a bill.
Lu Ming smiled bitterly, "What are you calling him?" There is a thorn in his words.
He didn't answer the question. He took the bill and looked at it. He couldn't help but be shocked. Yuan Mingzhu really dared to spend money. Within a few days, he spent more than a thousand dollars.
"How about it? Raising a woman is the most expensive thing. It's better for me. I never spend your money and you don't need to raise her." Yuan Mingzhu said with a sweet smile.
Lu Ming didn't say anything, he just gave the money to Yuan Mingzhu honestly. He knew that Yuan Mingzhu deliberately harmed him and let him know what kind of price he had to pay for his kindness.
"Hey, I've always wanted to ask you, how much did Uncle Sheng give you? I see you spend money now without blinking." Yuan Mingzhu took the money and asked without blinking.
"Don't worry about it, it will last us a lifetime." Lu Ming was not in the mood to discuss the issue of money.
He also smiled bitterly in his heart. He thought he would be able to spend the 20,000 yuan that Sheng Youde gave him in advance, but he didn't expect that he would already be out of pocket in just half a year.
However, he still has a monthly allowance of US$500, so there is no problem in living. Fortunately, the funds in the later period are not withdrawn in one lump sum, but he has to be tight. Such lavish spending will also waste money and money.
For Du Juan, Lu Ming originally wanted her to go to a women's normal school and receive a modern systematic education so that she could have a foothold in society and make a living on her own after graduation.
Life is unpredictable, and no one can see the future. With a stable life, Du Juan will sooner or later meet a man who likes her, form a small family, and live a life of husband and wife.
However, this was Lu Ming's imagination. He and Yuan Mingzhu tried to persuade him according to this plan, but Du Juan turned a deaf ear. Later, whenever this issue was mentioned, Du Juan cried and said nothing.
In the end, Lu Ming and Yuan Mingzhu had no choice but to give up their plans for Du Juan's bright future.
Yuan Mingzhu still stood her ground these days, occupying Lu Ming's bed, making Lu Ming feel like a frustrated little daughter-in-law, who could only curl up on the sofa to sleep.
Early that morning, Ning Xiner suddenly received a call, saying that there was a letter from her hometown in Huzhou to Mingzhu, and she would deliver it shortly.
She knew that the letter from Yuan Ziyuan was sent to her family. Lu Ming had informed her that there might be information left by Yuan Ziyuan in the letter.
Yuan Mingzhu was overjoyed, guessing that Ning Xiner was almost downstairs, so she ran downstairs and out of the apartment. After getting the letter, Yuan Mingzhu blew a kiss to Ning Xiner and hurried to the apartment.
Ning Xiner stuck her head out of the car window and shouted: "Mingzhu, run slowly, go back when nothing happens."
Running back upstairs, Yuan Mingzhu's eyes lit up and she said, "My sister's letter has arrived. Please take a look and see what's in it."
Lu Ming was also overjoyed. This letter was so important.
Although he did not find any clues in Ziyuan's last two letters, he still firmly believed that these three letters must contain important information that Yuan Ziyuan wanted to send out.
He took the letter and read it carefully, but as he read it, his brows furrowed even more tightly, and two small dimples formed at the corners of his mouth.
"What's wrong? Is there any problem?" Yuan Mingzhu became nervous.
"No, there is nothing wrong with the letter. This is the biggest problem." Lu Ming said with a bitter smile.
"What do you mean? I don't understand. There shouldn't be any problems in the first place." Yuan Mingzhu said in confusion.
"Well, report to Inspector Yuan, maybe I'm overthinking it. I'm Detective Lu, a professional patient." Lu Ming was worried that Mingzhu would have random thoughts, so he deliberately teased her.
