Zhao Minggui, on the other hand, was sitting in his dark little room, lighting a cigarette and smoking slowly. He was also considering every word Du Ziyuan said and what his next step should be.
With Zhao Minggui's shrewdness, he could vaguely discern several meanings from Du Ziyuan's words.
First, Du Ziyuan must have a major mission in Wuhan. First of all, he was finally convinced that he was not Du Ziyuan's target. Secondly, judging from the time, Wei Mingshui and You Shaoqing seemed not to be his target. So, his goal is
Zeng Shaowu? If it was Zeng Shaowu, it would be related to him, and he would be in danger.
Second, coming to Wuhan seems to have affected or even hindered Du Ziyuan's mission. Du Ziyuan didn't even want to arrest him, and seemed to be worried that doing so would affect his larger goals. If this guess is accurate, he would be relatively safe.
.This guess made Zhao Minggui breathe a sigh of relief again.
Third, Du Ziyuan obviously does not want Taiwan to know about his meeting with Zhao Minggui, and seems to be worried about affecting his goals. Du Ziyuan hopes that Xu Wenmei's telegram to Taiwan must be "reserved", which must be what he means. So, Du Ziyuan's
Who is the target? Zhao Minggui is very curious about this.
So, fourth, Du Ziyuan left him a little gap in time. How long this time gap was, he didn't dare to guess. But could he use this gap to complete his mission, and then leave quickly and disappear?
Zhao Minggui thought about this matter again and again, and felt that there was still a chance. His situation was already like this, and completing the task as soon as possible was his only way out. Therefore, Zhao Minggui gradually made up his mind on this point.
At this time, Xu Wenmei, who was sitting in front of the window, kept looking at him uneasily. She understood that the current situation could not get any worse. She and Agui were at the fingertips of the CCP intelligence agency.
The slightest movement will catch them.
She was also extremely worried at this time! One thing she had to consider was what she should do in the future. What Zeng Shaowu said to Zhao Minggui was very clear. Zhao Minggui could return to Taiwan once he completed his mission. But what about her? She could go.
Taiwan? Can she escape with her life? This is what she must consider.
This is what women are, and there is nothing anyone can do about it. A woman's shrewdness and a woman's stupidity are often the same thing.
At noon that day, Zhao Minggui and Xu Wenmei sat at the table, eating a simple lunch, and began to discuss in detail what they should do next.
"I can't move," Zhao Minggui said softly: "Du Ziyuan's men must be watching me. So, you are the only one to contact our brothers, and you must be particularly cautious when you go out. You must make careful arrangements to keep that right Shaoqing under your radar.
Live. The place where she lives and the place where she works are all being watched, and she must not be discovered."
Xu Wenmei ate her meal and stared carefully into Zhao Minggui's eyes, "What then?"
Zhao Minggui also stared into her eyes, "Just wait for Zuo Shaoqing to appear. As soon as she appears, let's take action immediately! Then leave here as soon as possible and hide."
"Agui, that guy named Du warned you not to make any big moves." Xu Wenmei said uneasily.
"Amei, before we take action, we definitely have no big move! Getting rid of Zuo Shaoqing is our only big move. Therefore, we only have one chance. After completing this task, we will leave immediately and go far away."
"Agui, where do you want to go?" This is the thing she is most concerned about.
"Of course we are going to Taiwan." Zhao Minggui smiled softly, "You come with me."
Xu Wenmei carefully observed Zhao Minggui. She was very happy that he could say this. But it was absolutely impossible for her to believe this. It was a matter of life and death!
After lunch, Xu Wenmei packed up the dishes and went out carrying a vegetable basket. Her task this afternoon was to carefully arrange her brothers, closely monitor You Shaoqing, and wait for Zuo Shaoqing to appear.
There is no doubt that she must continue to do this. She also believes that this is not a big move.
The judges understood that at this time, Zuo Shaoqing had found most of the Wuhan Group 5, and the chance of meeting her sister You Shaoqing was already quite high, and they could meet at any time. Therefore, the chance of Zhao Minggui discovering Zuo Shaoqing was
It is also quite large. Once discovered and shot Zuo Shaoqing in secret, his mission will be completed. They can quickly escape Wuhan and even escape back to Taiwan.
However, things are impermanent, and things in the world are never that simple.
On the afternoon of this day, Director Ge from the Domestic Security Division of the Wuhan Municipal Public Security Bureau found Zhang Yalan in the guest house of the Municipal Public Security Bureau with deep doubts and anger.
This morning, before going to work, Director Ge received a report that three murders had occurred simultaneously in the alley behind Wuchang East Lake Hotel. He dropped the phone and rushed directly from home to the scene of the crime.
The scene of the crime has been completely blocked by the police. Many spectators gathered in the distance and talked with each other.
A large number of police officers have arrived at the scene and are conducting on-site inspection and investigation recording.
The first murder occurred outside the back door of the East Lake Hotel on the west side of the alley. The deceased was a middle-aged man in his forties. From the appearance, the deceased was a relatively well-off person and even had a certain social status.
He was stabbed once in the chest and once in the back, both in critical areas. His wallet was thrown to the ground and was already empty.
Director Ge's first feeling was that this man had been murdered for money. The murderers seemed to be two people.
The second murder occurred not too far to the east outside the back door of the East Lake Hotel. He was stabbed to death from behind. The stab was sharp and he died at that time. But the man still had some money in his pocket.
, but had not been touched. He was killed with one knife, and the money was not touched. These two circumstances made Director Ge suspicious. It did not look like revenge killing, nor did it look like killing for money.
The third murder was even more bizarre. The deceased's pants were taken off to his knees, and his male organ was cut off with a knife and stuffed into the deceased's mouth. Severe pain and excessive blood loss seemed to be the cause of this man's death.
This case seems more like a revenge killing. It doesn't seem like it was committed by one person if the crime was carried out to this extent.
Director Ge's first feeling was that this man might have harmed someone else's wife or daughter during his lifetime, and that's why he was so severely retaliated against. So, this might be a revenge murder, right? He thought so.
There were three murders, one was killed for money, one died for unknown reasons, and the third seemed to have died in revenge. The police investigating at the scene all thought it was a criminal case.
But in Director Ge's eyes, it could never be seen as a criminal case. The three murders happened almost at the same time and were so close together that he didn't believe it was a simple criminal case.
The investigation into the three homicides began almost immediately.
When it was almost noon, Director Ge received further reports. What these three people had in common was that their identities were unknown. Furthermore, none of them were locals. The middle-aged man who died in the alley lived in the Wuhan Commercial Bureau.
No. 3 Guesthouse. Judging from his hotel registration and the bus ticket found on his person, he came from Guangzhou. The registration showed that his name was Zeng Shaowu.
However, Director Ge learned from Guangzhou that there was no information or records about this person in Guangzhou.
As for the two young men who died on the east side of the alley, no clues could be found. We had no idea who they were, where they came from, or where they lived. This situation was a bit strange.
Director Ge can be regarded as an old police officer. He joined the New Fourth Army in 1941 and has been working in the security department. Before changing his job in 1951, he was a battalion-level security officer of the 63rd Army Military Headquarters. He
After transferring to the Wuhan Public Security Bureau, he started as deputy section chief of the Public Security Section. Because he repeatedly solved major cases, he was promoted to director of the Domestic Security Division of the Municipal Public Security Bureau two years ago. Therefore, Director Ge, who has a humble appearance, has rich experience in solving crimes.
At this time, Director Ge had a feeling that there might be a connection between the three murder cases, or even the same case, and it was most likely a political case.
There were generally only two types of so-called "political cases" during that period. One type was anti-party and anti-socialist cases, which were the so-called "anti-(revolution) cases." The other type was "secret agent cases." The investigation and
Uncovering the latent agents of the Kuomintang was a major political task of that era.
At this time, Director Ge naturally thought of Zhang Yalan, who had come to Wuhan to look for someone but refused to tell him her name. He felt that Zhang Yalan seemed to be related to these three murders.
It was easy for Director Ge to find Zhang Yalan. She lived in the guest house of the Municipal Public Security Bureau. He had known this for a long time.
During that period, the income of public security officers was not high. Therefore, when public security officers went to other places to handle cases, they could stay in the local public security bureau guest house for free with a letter of introduction. Therefore, when Zhang Yalan came to Wuhan, she could only live in the public security bureau.
In the bureau guest house.
At around three o'clock that afternoon, Director Ge found Zhang Yalan in the guest house of the Municipal Public Security Bureau.
At this time, Zhang Yalan and Xiao Fanbing had just returned from outside and were discussing in the room how to explain this case to Director Ge of the Wuhan Public Security Bureau and whether they could handle it as a criminal case.
Before noon that day, Zhang Yalan met with Zuo Shaoqing and her team members to check on all aspects of the situation.
They sat in various parts of the room, looking at each other with some confusion and heaviness in their eyes.
They have verified clearly that three people were killed behind the East Lake Hotel last night. They believe that these three cases were committed by people from Wuhan Group 5. But the reason why they killed people so harshly is that they
They didn't know. Another point was, they didn't know who the three people who were killed were. This was what they were most worried about and confused about.
