"Sir Dai..." Weng Bailing said hurriedly as soon as he got in the car.
"Stop it, don't say anything now, wait until we get back to Nanjing." Dai Li said with a cold face.
When Weng Bailing saw Dai Li's unkind look, he had no choice but to close his mouth and droop his eyes.
The car sped up after leaving Shanghai. Halfway through, Dai Li asked the driver to stop, saying that his legs were numb and he wanted to get out of the car to do some exercise.
Dai Li glanced at Weng Bailing and motioned for him to get out of the car too. If he had something to say, Weng Bailing hurriedly got out of the car and followed Dai Li to the farmland under the highway.
There are rice fields nearby. Looking into the distance, you can see a few scattered houses, with a few smoke rising in the distance.
In the wilderness in early spring, the air is still cold.
The guards followed them, keeping a distance. Dai Li looked back at the adjutants and guards, and then said to Weng Bailing: "Tell me what happened."
Weng Bailing hurriedly explained the matter, and finally said: "Sir, I am not colluding with the Japanese, I just hate this bastard Lu Ming so much. He must be a Communist, but there are too many people protecting him.
Does not fall."
Dai Li didn't speak, and his expression remained unchanged during Weng Bailing's narration, standing there motionless like a dry rock.
After listening to the explanation, Dai Li patted Weng Bailing on the shoulder and said softly: "Well, okay, have a good trip."
Weng Bailing was stunned for a moment when he heard this, feeling baffled. When he turned around, he saw the muzzles of five pistols pointed at him.
"Sir, you can't do this. I am loyal to the party and the country, to the committee, and to the chief..."
Before he could finish speaking, all five pistols were fired.
Weng Bailing fell on his back, his limbs twitched for a while and then died.
At the last moment before his death, he understood why Dai Li executed him. Dai Li would not let him return to Nanjing alive and would not give him a chance to state his case in a military court because he knew that Dai Li had too much privacy.
Seeing fish in the abyss is ominous.
Weng Bailing once thought that Dai Li and his private affairs were his life-saving ace, but little did he know that it was also his life-saving talisman.
Two guards took a piece of plastic sheet from the car, wrapped Weng Bailing's body and put it in the trunk of the car.
After getting on the car, the car started moving again. Everyone seemed to be a little touched, but no one said anything.
"Do you know why I want to execute him?" Dai Li asked.
No one answered, and everyone didn't know what to say because they didn't know the commander's intention at all.
"Because he made two fatal mistakes, one was accepting bribes, and the other was colluding with the Japanese. Taking bribes is a capital crime, and colluding with the Japanese can kill ten heads."
"Sir, why don't you send him to a military court for judgment?" the adjutant asked.
"Because he was once one of us, if he is sentenced to death by a military court, we will lose face and will be laughed at," Dai Li said.
"Weng Bailing was too courageous. He kidnapped Du Juan and caused a big stir in Shanghai, but he didn't even report it to the superior." The adjutant was also very angry.
"Well, let's not mention this. I don't know. He will die in Nanjing. I do this to save him from suffering after arriving in Nanjing." Dai Li finally said angrily.
After Weng Bailing was executed, a stone in Dai Li's heart finally fell to the ground.
Lu Ming feinted and invited Dai Li to Shanghai, staged a scene of catching a turtle in an urn, and then handed Weng Bailing over to him. He naturally understood what this meant.
Lu Ming was giving him face and at the same time extending an olive branch. If he didn't respond accordingly, the same fate as Weng Bailing would be waiting for him.
Through what happened to Ning Xiner, Dai Li got to know Lu Ming better.
On the surface, Lu Ming looks like a playboy who spends money like water, but in fact, he is a thoughtful green man who specializes in picking hard bones.
A person who dares to single-handedly break into the Japanese Concession and kill four Japanese is either mentally ill or a person who puts life and death at risk. Anyone who offends him will have only one fate, and that is death.
It's useless even if this person is protected by the committee, not to mention that Lu Ming is also the person the committee likes. It's hard to say who occupies a more important position in the committee's mind.
With the strong backing of Sheng's wealth, there is a high probability that the commission will not be cruel to Lu Ming. Past events have proven this.
This was also one of the keys why Dai Li finally turned to Lu Ming on the issue of Weng Bailing.
When it was almost three o'clock in the afternoon, Lu Ming received a call from Dai Li.
"Sir Lu, I have something to say hello to you. There was an accident on the way back to Nanjing. Weng Bailing took advantage of the convenience of getting out of the car and grabbed the guard's gun and tried to escape. I had no choice but to shoot him dead on the spot. Tomorrow I will
Send someone to send you a photo of his body."
"It's nothing. He just wants to die, so let him follow his wish." Lu Ming said with a smile.
The two talked some more on the phone, and Lu Ming hung up the phone.
"Dai Yunong is a very smart person. No wonder the committee members like him so much. Even I like him a little bit." Lu Ming said to Liu Qiwen with a smile.
Indeed, Dai Li and Lu Ming were rivals, equally matched, but Weng Bailing was just a clown in front of them.
"Weng Bailing is really dead? Isn't it a fake death?" Liu Qiwen was still a little worried.
"Don't worry, Dai Li doesn't dare to do anything like this, and he doesn't have to do it. Keeping Weng Bailing will do him a lot of harm but nothing good." Lu Ming said with a smile.
"Then what will Sister Song do in the future? Otherwise, transfer her to our place." Liu Qiwen said.
The relationship between Liu Qiwen and Weng Bailing's secretary Song Hanyu has always been very good. It can be said that both of them were deeply oppressed by Weng Bailing, but Song Hanyu's life was more miserable.
"Ask her. If she is willing, you can let her come over to manage the confidential room." Lu Ming said with a smile.
Lu Ming had no personal relationship with Song Hanyu, but he also knew the relationship between Liu Qiwen and her. Since Liu Qiwen made this request, it was not a big deal, so he agreed casually.
"Sir, since Weng Bailing is dead, can Deputy Station Director Zhao be promoted to a regular position?" Liu Qiwen smiled again.
"That's impossible. Zhao Yuanliang and I are too close. This is a good thing and a bad thing. He can be the deputy station director steadily, but he will never become a full-time official. There is no way that Shanghai Station will be subject to my appointment.
Controlling and balancing are what the committee is best at." Lu Ming said with great self-knowledge.
Weng Bailing died, so naturally we should celebrate. This is not to take pleasure in others' misfortune. In fact, Weng Bailing was so hateful that he actually cooperated with the Japanese to kidnap Du Juan, and he deserved his death.
In the evening, Lu Ming booked a room in the Chinese restaurant of the Chinachem Hotel. Huang Yanning, Zhao Yuanliang, Zhang Ziyang, and Song Hanyu were also invited by Liu Qiwen.
The six people were all a little excited. Since the founding of the Fuxing Society, it has been a rare opportunity for everyone to speak freely. No one could have imagined that this day would really come to pass.
That afternoon, Liu Qiwen immediately called Song Hanyu and conveyed the news to her.
Hearing that Weng Bailing was dead and executed by Dai Li, Song Hanyu felt his head buzzing and could hardly believe the news.
In the morning, Weng Bailing was fine, so why did he die in the afternoon?
And he was executed by Dai Li? Song Hanyu could not help but feel a kind of sadness in his heart, but more of it was joy.
It’s a mixture of joy and sorrow.
Of course, Song Hanyu also guessed that Weng Bailing was involved in the kidnapping of Du Juan, but there was no evidence. Weng Bailing was a suspicious person, and even his adjutant and secretary could not believe it. He arranged this matter secretly, and it could be said that there was no leakage.
However, the cup with Weng Bailing's fingerprints on it was provided by Song Hanyu. As a secretary, it was too easy to get the cup from which Weng Bailing drank water.
When she was convinced of the news of Weng Bailing's death, she couldn't help but cry silently.
After Weng Bailing died, she was finally out of the sea of suffering and no longer had to endure the oppression and torture of this demon. So when Liu Qiwen invited her to work in the Secret Intelligence Service, she agreed without hesitation.
Song Hanyu didn't believe that happiness came so quickly and so violently. Didn't it mean that good things can't come in pairs?
Now that Weng Bailing is dead, she is free and can work in the Secret Intelligence Service. This transformation was completed almost instantly.
It seems that the old saying that blessings never come in pairs and misfortunes never come alone may not be accurate sometimes.
The Secret Intelligence Service is the most popular place now. I don’t know how many people want to come here at Shanghai Station, but unfortunately Lu Ming doesn’t accept them at all. These people all regret that they didn’t have a good relationship with Lu Ming in the first place, and now they have no way to join them.
The level of the Secret Intelligence Service is high, and the threshold is naturally high. The most important thing is that the treatment is good, the salary is high, and the room for advancement is large. With so many benefits, who can not be tempted?
Huang Yanning went to the Chinachem Hotel early to arrange tonight's dinner and specially strengthened security. Shanghai is also an unsafe place now.
Weng Bailing still has a few best friends at Shanghai Station, so he has to guard against them.
