"You..." After hearing Li Qiang's words, Takagi immediately opened his eyes wide, with surprise written all over his face.
Li Qiang smiled slightly, slowly put down the wine glass in his hand, and then said slowly: "Although your subconscious reaction has betrayed your heart, I still hope that you can answer my question truthfully.
Are you a member of the Black Dragon Society?"
"...Yes." After a battle between heaven and man, Takagi finally made this difficult decision and nodded in reply.
"Very good! Takagi-kun, to be honest, I am very happy to see that you have made the right choice. Then the second question is, what is the purpose of your Black Dragon Association's frequent actions recently?"
"This... Chief Ming, please forgive me for not being able to answer this question."
"Can't answer? Well, then according to the previous agreement, you must do one thing for me."
"What's up?"
"I want you to help me spy on Shigeyuki Akagi. Whatever he said, what he did, and who he met, you must report it to me as soon as possible. How about it?"
"Your target is Shigeyuki Akagi?" Takagi asked with narrowed eyes.
However, Li Qiang just said lightly: "It's not that serious. I just want to know what he is going to do. After all, he just quietly asked Mr. Matsuoka to withdraw the special appointment for me not long ago. What if I continue like this?"
If I don't do it, I'm afraid next time, it won't just be as simple as removing me from the appointment."
"I understand!" Takagi immediately said empathetically after hearing this, "It's just that Chief Fujita..."
"You can answer whatever Chief Fujita asks. However, I have to remind you that Akagi Shigeyuki is notoriously suspicious and ruthless. For Mr. Matsuoka's sake, he may not
How I am, but you are different, so it is best not to let other people know about this matter. I am doing this for your own good, do you understand?"
"Don't worry, Chief Ming, I still know this kind of thing. So what's the last question?"
"Three days have passed since you brought Mingtai back to the Super High School to cooperate with the investigation. However, as far as I know, Chief Fujita neither ordered an interrogation nor refused to release him. Why?"
"Chief Ming, this is too difficult for you. I am just a small military police captain. How could I know such a confidential matter? But I guess this matter is most likely related to Chief Minglou."
Hearing this, Li Qiang nodded thoughtfully, "Okay, Mr. Gao Mu, I've finished asking, you can go back. Don't worry, I will keep my promise and keep your and Secretary Liu's secrets for you."
As soon as these words came out, Gao Mu felt happy, but just as he was about to turn around and drive away, Li Qiang asked in a confused manner, "Mr. Gao Mu, what do you desire most?"
"Uh..." Li Qiang's sudden question caught Takagi off guard, and he didn't know how to respond for a moment.
Li Qiang smiled and continued: "Let me guess, is it money, family, love, or power?"
Although Takagi just stood there and listened without saying a word, when Li Qiang said the word "power", a trace of greedy desire flashed in his eyes.
Although it only flashed by, it did not escape Li Qiang's eyes, so he continued to say to him: "Takagi-kun, I think we can have more in-depth cooperation."
Takagi didn't want to but categorically refused: "No! I don't want to have anything to do with you anymore."
"Don't talk too much. The days are long and no one can predict what will happen in the future. What do you think?"
"Hmph!" Takagi did not answer Li Qiang's words, but snorted and quickly left the room, fearing that he would be tempted by his words if he took a step too slowly.
And at the same time that Li Qiang and Gao Mu secretly met at Paramount, a large number of spies were already taking advantage of the night to rush straight towards the Ming's Flour Mill...
At four o'clock in the morning, it was just dawn. As soon as Minglou, who finally felt a little sleepy, closed his eyes, the phone in the room rang.
Minglou suddenly opened his eyes and sat up from the bed. After a slight hesitation, he finally took a deep breath, picked up the phone receiver, and said with the utmost care: "What's the matter? Tell me!"
However, there was silence for a long time on the other side, and then he said with a heavy heart: "Brother, last night, No. 76 Wu Shibao led a team to raid the flour mill."
As soon as these words came out, Minglou couldn't help but close his eyes with heartache. He didn't know how long it took before he continued to ask: "What's the result?"
"Guo Qiyun was injured and captured, the whereabouts of the 'madman' are unknown, and the rest all died heroically for their country!"
Hearing this, Minglou's face suddenly changed, his eyes suddenly darkened, and then he punched the wall hard and said angrily: "Asshole! What on earth is this 'madman' doing? I knew I couldn't hand over the command to that person.
Guy!"
"Brother, do you...want to come back as soon as possible?" Acheng asked hurriedly.
However, after a while, Minglou said weakly: "No, I can't go back. If I go back now, there will be no room for maneuver."
"Then what should I do? Mingtai still..."
"I understand how you feel. Frankly speaking, I'm more anxious than you are, but all we can do now is wait."
"Wait? Wait for what?"
Minglou gradually calmed down and said word by word: "Wait for the result."
"Brother..."
"Listen! This is the end of the matter. No matter what I do, I can't make up for the lives that have been lost. So what we need now is not to do anything, but to stay calm. Once we lose our calm, we will fall into the enemy's trap.
,Understand?"
"I understand, but... Guo Qiyun was captured. What if it was him..."
However, before Acheng could finish his words, Minglou intercepted him and said, "Don't worry, believe me, he will definitely not betray Mingtai."
"Brother, you know people, faces but not hearts!"
"If it were anyone else, I wouldn't be like this, only him..." Speaking of this, Minglou couldn't help but control his emotions, and then continued, "You don't know yet, right? Guo Qiyun
In fact, he is the nephew of that 'madman'."
"Wha...what? Are you serious?"
"Of course it is true. Although he is only a distant nephew, he is also the only relative of that 'madman' in the world. But although he appears to be a member of the military commander, he is actually our comrade."
As soon as these words came out, Acheng was directly shocked and said in disbelief: "Guo Qiyun...is our comrade?"
"Yes, he is the nail that the Southern Bureau has driven into the military system, a nail that is rotten in the rotten wood."
"What's our next step?"
"There is no next step, and even if there is, it's not up to us how we go."
"But……"
"Stop it, the only thing you have to do now is to go to the newspaper office immediately and complete the task I gave you before their newspaper comes out..."
"Then what?" Ah Cheng continued to ask.
Unexpectedly, Minglou, who was opposite him, sighed heavily, "Then, you just have to adapt to the situation!"
"...I know, brother!" With the last "brother", Cheng shouted even more solemnly. After saying that, he hung up the phone and rushed towards the newspaper office without stopping...
A few hours later, at dawn, the phone rang in the office at No. 76, Secret Service Headquarters. Wang Manchun picked up the phone unhurriedly, and Zhu Huiyin's voice came from the phone: "Director, line 2, emergency."
"Get in."
After a short time, the call was connected, and then a man's slightly hoarse voice came from the phone, "Congratulations, Director Wang, you must have gained a lot last night, right?"
"Thanks to your good intelligence, I look forward to working with you next time."
"Then it depends on whether you keep your word, Director Wang."
"Don't worry, I will send someone to deposit the things you want into your designated safe as soon as possible."
"Okay, now I feel relieved. Are you happy to cooperate?"
"Wait a minute." Seeing that the other party was about to hang up the phone, Wang Manchun quickly spoke up to stop him.
"Director Wang, do you have any other advice?"
"Since you have chosen to cooperate with me, why don't you just tell me who the 'Poisonous Scorpion' is?"
I didn't want the other party to hear this, but just laughed, "Director Wang, you see you have no experience in playing cards. You must know that 'Poisonous Scorpion' is my trump card. How could I just give it to you when I just started cooperating with you?"
Are your trump cards revealed?"
"Then how are you going to show your trump card? Make an offer!"
"Director Wang, you misunderstood. This is not a matter of price. Don't worry, as long as we can continue to cooperate, you will naturally know when the time is right."
After hanging up the phone, Wang Manchun couldn't help but sneered contemptuously. It seemed that he looked down from the bottom of his heart on the traitor who cheated on others and betrayed his own people.
It's no wonder, considering that she is dissatisfied with Liang Zhongchun, a person who changed the central government, not to mention the guy who was duplicitous and wanted to betray his comrades to join him. Compared with Liang Zhongchun, such a person
This made her even more scornful.
"Extraordinary! Extraordinary! Mingcheng, the housekeeper of the Ming family, published a public statement in the newspaper, officially breaking away from the Ming family! Extraordinary! Extraordinary..."
Countless newsboys were hawking hard on the bustling streets, and newspapers containing the latest and hottest news were distributed to the hands of all kinds of pedestrians.
Many people had surprise written on their faces after seeing the statement published on the front page of the magazine, and even more people regarded it as an excellent conversation piece, so the news only took less than half a day.
By that time, it had been widely spread and everyone knew about it.
At this time, in the Ming Mansion, Cheng was in his room, packing his luggage silently.
And when he saw the only photo of the four siblings left on the desk, he unconsciously reached out and touched it gently, and a deep feeling of reluctance appeared in his eyes.
But even so, Cheng still had to put down the photo frame ruthlessly. After taking one last look at the room where he had lived for more than 20 years, he suddenly changed his mind and walked out with his suitcase.
However, just as he was carrying the box downstairs to the living room, he happened to meet Aunt Gui returning from shopping for groceries, so he had to pretend that nothing happened and casually said: "Back?"
Aunt Gui smiled awkwardly, but soon noticed the box in Cheng's hand, and asked in surprise: "Acheng, what are you..."
"Nothing, just come back and get something." Cheng replied perfunctorily.
Although she heard the perfunctory tone in Cheng's tone, Aunt Gui just continued: "I haven't been home for several days. Since I'm back, let's have dinner before leaving!"
Before he finished speaking, Cheng glanced at his watch, shook his head and said, "No, I still have something to do. Let's wait for another day. I'll treat you to a restaurant another day."
"Let's go to a restaurant?" As soon as these words came out, Aunt Gui seemed to notice something, and quickly asked, "A-Cheng, tell me honestly, you didn't just come back to get something today, right? What happened?"
"Don't worry about it. I don't plan to come back anyway. As for you, I advise you to leave as soon as possible to avoid being implicated by the Ming family!"
"Even... implicated? Cheng, do you know what you are talking about? How can you talk like this?" In desperation, Aunt Gui subconsciously grabbed Cheng's arm with her hand and kept asking.
.
"Oh, it's so annoying." Cheng shook Aunt Gui's hand away impatiently and said coldly, "Read today's newspaper for yourself! Anyway, from now on, this family and I will never be together again.
It doesn’t matter at all!”
After saying that, she carried the box and walked out of the door without looking back, leaving Aunt Gui standing alone in the living room, at a loss.
Not long after Acheng left, several No. 76 cars forced their way into the gate of Ming Mansion.
"Who are you? Who let you in? Do you know where this place is?" Although she was frightened by the menacing guys, Aunt Gui still had the courage to block the door of the mansion and said to her
The visitor said.
Unexpectedly, before the words were finished, a little spy immediately barked, "Hey! You old guy, you are blind! You dare to talk to Mr. Bao like this, are you fucking impatient?"
Immediately afterwards came a lot of unpleasant swear words, and Wu Shibao, the leader, didn't walk up to Aunt Gui until he had finished cursing, and said with a foul mouth, "Of course I know where this place is, no.
Is it a secret hideout for the anti-Japanese elements? Do you think so?"
As soon as these words came out, the agents behind the man immediately started to respond.
However, at this moment, a loud shout suddenly came from behind everyone, "You bastard! Where did this little brat dare to act so arrogantly in my Ming Mansion?"
Everyone hurriedly looked back and saw Li Qiang leading someone in from the outside.
"Who do I think is so loud and has been making trouble for a long time? It turns out it's you!" Wu Shibao curled his lips and said contemptuously, then took out something from his arms and warned arrogantly, "Watch it.
This is a search warrant from the secret service headquarters. I have searched Ming Mansion today! I want to see if you dare to stop me!"
