Chapter 523: Three Questions for the Soul

The most ridiculous thing is that the office funds of this special investigation team were distributed by Lu Ming himself. People like Dai Li spent his money, but they came to investigate him. It looked like they had been betrayed.

The buyer is the person being sold, because he paid for it, which is where the fun lies.

"I want to walk around. What about you, are you tired?" Lu Ming asked Liu Qiwen beside him.

"Great! It's so uncomfortable to stay huddled in the office all day." Liu Qiwen immediately jumped for joy when she heard this.

For more than half a month, Liu Qiwen has become accustomed to a loose life, with no restrictions and no tasks that must be completed. Such a life is so refreshing.

Lu Ming was different. First he stayed in the hotel for about ten days, and then he stayed in the hotel and the Fuxing Society headquarters building.

Normally, Lu Ming would stop going out after returning to the hotel. It's not that he doesn't like walking around Nanjing, but he doesn't like being surrounded by four or five agents. It feels too awkward.

"Where are we going?" Liu Qiwen asked with wide eyes.

"Well, I haven't moved for a long time. Let's go boating on the Qinhuai River." Lu Ming said.

"Okay, okay, I can finally breathe some fresh air." Liu Qiwen cheered again.

When the people following Lu Ming heard something was wrong, an agent hurriedly came over and said, "Sir, if you want to go to the Qinhuai River, it's best to go during the day. If you go at night, the security measures will be difficult."

"I'm not a big shot, so why should I use any security measures? No, just a few of you following me is enough." Lu Ming said, looking at an open window of a hotel nearby, where An Gonggen lived.

and his subordinates.

An Gonggen and six Shanghai Station agents have arrived in Nanjing and are staying in a nearby hotel, waiting for Lu Ming's call every day.

When Lu Ming travels, An Gonggen's men will quietly follow him. As long as Lu Ming calls, they can appear in front of him at any time.

"Sir, Nanjing is not very peaceful these days. Some Japanese are making trouble," the agent said.

"The Japanese came to Nanjing to make trouble? Why are they making trouble?" Lu Ming said in surprise.

"There is nothing specific. It's just that a few Japanese ronin are provoking quarrels and causing trouble, deliberately provoking fights with residents and police. According to our expert analysis, the Japanese may be planning a major secret operation. These ronin are instigated by Japanese agents.

Came to test."

"Do the Japanese agents have a clear target? Are they coming for me?" Lu Ming asked, pointing to his nose.

"We can't completely determine their target yet, but based on analysis, the most likely target is you, sir," the agent said.

Lu Ming didn't know what was going on, but this agent wouldn't tell lies. If there were any Japanese rogues causing trouble in Nanjing, he could find out with just one phone call.

However, Lu Ming's thoughts were always on Shanghai, and he basically paid no attention to the local situation in Nanjing.

It seems now that if you want to be prepared to stay in Nanjing for a while, you have to find out what is going on in Nanjing.

"In this case, I won't make it difficult for you. I won't go. You can send two people to protect Secretary Liu when he goes boating on the Qinhuai River." Lu Ming said.

"Okay, please rest assured, sir, we will definitely protect Secretary Liu." The agent leader looked at the beautiful Liu Qiwen and said happily.

"Forget it, sir, if you don't want to go, there's no point in rowing alone, so I won't go either," Liu Qiwen said angrily.

"If we encounter such a disappointing thing, let's go back to the hotel together." Lu Ming sighed.

Now he really understands what it means to be in control of one's actions. Even if he wants to go boating to relax, he can't do it.

This broken Fuxing Society should not have entered in the first place. Lu Ming began to miss the old days in Shanghai. He was like a lone ranger, going wherever he wanted and whenever he wanted.

No one cares about him, and no one harasses him.

The two returned to the hotel, had a scrumptious dinner, and then returned to their room on the top floor.

Liu Qiwen followed Lu Ming in, made tea for him, and then sat next to him.

"Sir, I always feel something is wrong. There seem to be a lot more people around us staring at us. I don't know if I'm being careless or too sensitive." Liu Qiwen whispered.

"You are not careless, nor are you sensitive. Dai Yunong has indeed increased his manpower." Lu Ming sneered.

"Why did he do this? I thought it was fine, but I didn't expect it to get more and more complicated." Liu Qiwen said with a bitter face.

Now, even ghosts probably wouldn't believe that more and more people were walking around him just to protect Lu Ming's personal safety.

"It's enough to understand some things. There's no need to speak out, and there's no need to break the casserole and ask for answers." Lu Ming said with a smile.

"Don't you feel aggrieved? Don't you want to resist? Are you just going to stay in Nanjing like this?" Liu Qiwen asked him three consecutive questions.

It's hard to say that he was wronged. After all, it was indeed him who did it. As for resisting, his persistence every day is to resist silently, so there is no such thing as resignation.

This was Lu Ming's inner answer to Liu Qiwen's three questions.

I really wanted to resist today, but my emotions were brewing, and I forced He Zhonghan to reveal a secret to him. This was not a small victory.

Of course, these words cannot be said to Liu Qiwen, and the same words cannot be dragged into this muddy water.

Through these close interactions, Lu Ming got to know Liu Qiwen better.

Although this little girl usually looks soft and frail, she has a fierce and spicy spirit in her bones, and a spirit of not yielding to anyone.

"Qiwen, if you get on this pirate ship, don't talk about your grievances or anything like that. You have no qualifications to talk about it. I also want to resist, but how can I resist? How can I resist?" Lu Ming said with a bitter smile.

"If I were you, I would just break the pot, risk everything, and have a great fight with them." Liu Qiwen said angrily.

"Nonsense, when did I become a broken jar? I am a golden jar made of pure gold, okay?" Lu Ming said with a smile.

Liu Qiwen chuckled, then thought: "That's right, you are a rich man, you can't take risks, things that are suitable for people like me are not suitable for you to do. I just can't get angry."

"Don't think like this. Preserving yourself is the most important thing at all times. Nothing in this world is more important than your life. People must learn to hide their capabilities and bide their time." Lu Ming said.

"That's what you think. To me, there are many things more important than my life." Liu Qiwen said.

"Oh, give me an example and let me hear it." Lu Ming asked curiously.

"For example, my loyalty to you. If someone forces me to betray you, I will not agree even if I risk my life. At worst, the fish will die and the net will be broken." Liu Qiwen said sternly.

She did what she said. After Mr. Jiang talked to her until today, she has not written a word of Lu Ming's surveillance report, and she can't write it either.

However, He Zhonghan didn't force her anymore and seemed to give her enough time to think about it.

As for being Lu Ming's lover, that is not something she can decide, but she will continue to work hard, that's all.

Lu Ming shook his head and smiled bitterly. He didn't think he was that important. How could someone force Liu Qiwen to betray him? It was just a joke.

In addition, Liu Qiwen is just his work secretary, there is no level of loyalty at all, let alone betrayal.

Just like the people outside who monitor him, they are all his subordinates, but as soon as an order comes from above, they become his monitors. However, this is obviously not a betrayal, it is just their job.

.

Lu Ming knew this, so he never made things difficult for them and just followed if he wanted to.

At 7:30, Lu Ming called Yuan Mingzhu on time. This was the agreement Yuan Mingzhu made with him before leaving. He would call her on time at 7:30 every night to report that he was safe.

"Lu Ming, are you going back to Shanghai on the weekend?" Yuan Mingzhu asked.

"I can't go back for the time being." Lu Ming sighed.

"What's wrong? What happened again? It's really endless." Yuan Mingzhu said angrily.

"Something happened not to me, but to the Fuxing Society. There is actually a Communist intelligence team operating in our society, codenamed A. Now the society has set up a special task force to investigate this case, so the top officials are not here for the time being.

If you are allowed to go out, I can only stay in Nanjing." Lu Ming explained with a wry smile.
