"Okay, I won't go and watch. Just tell them that interrogation requires using your brain, not just your physical strength." Lu Ming said lightly.
"That's right, there is a saying from the ancients: A gentleman stays away from the kitchen. Some things are better for us villains to do. You are a gentleman, so it is better to stay away from such things." Zhao Yuanliang laughed.
"Why, you did it yourself?" Lu Ming said in surprise.
"No way, I can't stand it even if I just watch from the side. Why would I do it myself? I don't have the habit of abusing people." Zhao Yuanliang said disdainfully.
Lu Ming listened to the tragic screams coming from the basement from time to time, and completely gave up the idea of going down to take a look.
He returned to his office, and Zhao Yuanliang followed him in.
Liu Qiwen was busy with something at her desk. When she saw Zhao Yuanliang coming in, she hurriedly stood up and said hello.
"How's it going? Have you learned anything about the situation?" Lu Ming asked after sitting down.
Zhao Yuanliang was startled, but he soon came to his senses. Lu Ming was asking about Ning Xiner's disappearance and asked him to inquire inside the building to see if anyone had heard anything.
He glanced at Liu Qiwen, and Lu Ming said calmly: "It's okay, just tell me, Qiwen is not an outsider."
"There is no news. I think it's very unusual. Either someone has sealed it, or no one really knows. I prefer the latter." Zhao Yuanliang said with a mysterious expression.
"When handling a case in Shanghai, the station chief personally takes action, but does not bring any agents or followers from the station. Don't you think it's strange?" Lu Ming said.
"It's very strange. Normally, when they go out to handle a case, they should have a case report and file it when they come back, but there is nothing. It seems that this incident has never happened." Zhao Yuanliang nodded.
"Have you had any contact with the agents who were at the scene that day?" Lu Ming asked.
"No, haven't you been busy with cases these past few days? There is no time to spare at all." Zhao Yuanliang complained bitterly.
Although Weng Bailing intended to block Lu Ming, he was unable to block Zhao Yuanliang.
Zhao Yuanliang had just been promoted to deputy webmaster in charge of intelligence operations, and Lu Ming had promoted him through connections. Weng Bailing knew that Zhao Yuanliang was Lu Ming's confidant, but there was nothing he could do about it.
"Go back and continue to inquire." Lu Ming waved his hand and said.
"By the way, I almost forgot an important thing. A grassroots leader of the underground party trade union confessed. He confessed to many people, some of whom you added to the informant list that day. Chief Dai and Station Chief Weng also confessed.
It can definitely be compared. If you ask me, what would I say?"
Zhao Yuanliang mentioned this situation, which suddenly made things complicated. Lu Ming realized that Weng Bailing would definitely insist on this matter, and he had to find a way to make him swallow a mouthful of sand.
Lu Ming pondered for a moment and said: "You push it all away, just don't know anything and let them ask me."
"With your words, I feel relieved."
Zhao Yuanliang went downstairs. He still needed to preside over the interrogation in the basement. He came here specially to accompany Lu Ming to see Hou Liang.
After Zhao Yuanliang left, Liu Qiwen came over and whispered: "I asked Sister Song about this matter. She didn't know what Weng Bailing was doing at Paramount that day. She didn't know about it at all. I asked her to find an opportunity to ask.
"
The Sister Song that Liu Qiwen is talking about is naturally Weng Bailing's secretary Song Hanyu.
Lu Ming sighed: "I guess asking is in vain. Weng Bailing would not tell Secretary Song such a confidential matter, otherwise he would have taken the initiative to tell it."
"I have also asked other secretaries, but none of them have heard of this matter." Liu Qiwen said.
"Well, let's investigate slowly. This matter doesn't seem to be that simple. The more he hides it, the more it means there is something fishy in it." Lu Ming vaguely felt that this was a conspiracy between Dai Li and Weng Bailing.
He never understood why someone wanted to kidnap Ning Xiner. Whether it was done by Dai Li or the Japanese, there was no need for it.
If you are taking the opportunity to suppress him, you should find someone who is closer to him. If you don't have the chance to attack Yuan Mingzhu, you can also attack Du Juan. Why did you choose Ning Xiner as the target?
Could it be that there is some secret about Ning Xiner that he doesn't know about, and Dai Li or the Japanese are here for this secret?
He was thinking while drinking a Coke with ice cubes.
Now the drink served in the whole building is Coca-Cola. There is no refrigerator in the building, but there is an ice machine. Everyone drinks Coca-Cola with ice cubes to cool down.
The weather after the rain became even more sultry and unbearable. The ceiling fan on the ceiling kept blowing, and my body was still sweaty and sticky.
Liu Qiwen held a small fan beside Lu Ming and kept fanning him. Lu Ming smiled and said, "You don't have to fan me, you are already sweating."
"It's really strange. I grew up in Hunan and never sweated in the summer. The doctor said I have a cold constitution, but after arriving in Shanghai, I started sweating in the summer." Liu Qiwen said with a smile.
Lu Ming looked at Liu Qiwen's slender figure and felt that the doctor was right. People with thin body types generally have cold constitutions and have a hard time enduring winter.
Liu Qiwen likes all kinds of food and always likes to eat snacks, but there is no sign of gaining weight on her body, and she has never been seen sweating.
But at this time, even though Liu Qiwen was wearing a silk top and a skirt that only reached her knees, there was still a glistening layer of tiny beads of sweat on her forehead and cheeks.
Although Liu Qiwen was thin, she still showed an attractive physical beauty. Lu Ming was a little obsessed with it for a while.
"How about it? I'm pretty, isn't it?" Liu Qiwen deliberately raised her high breasts.
"Uh, it's okay..." Lu Ming said with a smile.
"Want to see more?" Liu Qiwen sat on the table and pulled her skirt over her knees, revealing her long and sexy thighs.
"Don't make trouble, someone will come in soon." Lu Ming frowned and smiled bitterly.
"Look, I forgot this was an office. Let's find another place next time." Liu Qiwen was also afraid that someone would come in, so she hurriedly got off the table and stood up.
But coincidentally, An Gonggen happened to come in and saw Liu Qiwen getting down from Lu Ming's desk. He couldn't help laughing and said, "You two, I didn't disturb you, did I?"
"I said you are a cat, but you walk so lightly and make no sound at all?" Liu Qiwen complained in embarrassment.
She really didn't hear An Gonggen coming over. It was quite scary for a big man to walk without making any sound.
The corridors are all paved with floors. Over time, the floors have bulged in many places, and when people walk on them, they make a squeaky sound.
Lu Ming was not surprised. He knew that this was one of An Gonggen's specialties, so he walked almost silently.
This is a skill that high-level agents have developed over a long period of time. This method is necessary for approaching people to carry out assassinations.
"Haha, I'm sorry, I should have knocked on the door first." An Gonggen said haha.
An Gonggen was transferred to the building by Lu Ming on the pretext of preventing underground Communist organizations from robbing people, and acted as Lu Ming's eyes and ears here.
Lu Ming has no plans to help the Communists for the time being. In fact, he can't help. The Fuxing Society's monitoring and security measures are very strict, which can be described as water that can't be poured into and a needle can't penetrate.
But he still wanted to know the interrogation progress and basic situation of the arrested persons. He felt that Zhao Yuanliang alone was not enough.
An Gonggen was also very familiar with Liu Qiwen. He often saw the two of them being very close together, so he was not afraid of her being offended. He came over and propped his hands on the desk, stretched his head over and said in Lu Ming's ear: "Lu Ming
Young Master, those guys are arrogant masters. My brothers and I have been in contact with them for a few days, but it's no use. Whether we invite you to drink or watch a movie, they all politely refuse. I
It seems there is no hope."
Lu Ming nodded and said: "I also expected that the people in the headquarters have a strong sense of confidentiality, especially the agents brought by Dai Yunong himself, who have strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities, but this also shows that they have something secret in their hearts."
"If this delay is continued, will things go wrong if it takes too long? Master Lu, I think we should play something cruel and arrest two people first, torture them severely, and then throw them into the Huangpu River." An Gonggen whispered.
"Nonsense, this is absolutely not allowed. There is no solid evidence, and we must not force ourselves to take advantage of it. By the way, I asked you to keep an eye on Yoshiko Kawashima. How is it going? Is there any progress?" Lu Ming asked.
Lu Ming always has a bottom line for big things and doesn't care about small things.
He could ask the Cao gang to quietly kill the people Weng Bailing sent to Wuhan, or he could ask An Gonggen to get rid of the agents Weng Bailing planted in his apartment.
However, taking action against Dai Li's people would go beyond the bottom line, so it is not necessary for the time being.
Although Lu Ming suspected that Ning Xiner's disappearance was most likely related to Dai Li, he could not break up with Dai Li just because of suspicion, unless he got evidence to prove that it was indeed Dai Li who carried out the kidnapping.
If that's the case, let alone getting angry, he might even use a knife or a gun. Even if he gets into trouble with the committee, he won't be afraid at all.
But before that, he couldn't completely break up with Dai Li.
In addition, he still hasn't figured out if the mastermind of the kidnapping case was really Dai Li, why did he do it? He must understand the reason behind it.
