"Captain Gu, look, I've been standing here for a long time. You should give me a name for who to invite! What are you doing?" Wang Tianxiang said anxiously.
However, Gu Xiaomeng was still sitting in front of the dressing table, fixing her nails, and replied angrily: "Learn from the Red Party and support yourself! Anyway, I can't get this bottle of nail polish from Director Wang."
"Isn't it just a bottle of nail polish? Isn't that simple? If you want President Gu to come to the banquet, won't you just bring the things?"
"Invite my father to the banquet?" Gu Xiaomeng couldn't help but chuckle after hearing this, "I'm sorry you can say this. Director Wang, if you want to invite you, just go and invite yourself. But I advise you, don't go.
,good for you!"
"why?"
"Because my father will make an exception and attend the banquet only if Chairman Wang and that old devil Matsui personally submit the invitation. With Longchuan's military rank and title, let alone attending the banquet, I'm afraid you won't even be able to enter the front door of our house.
,So, Director Wang, don’t ask for trouble."
Just as he was talking, there was a knock on the door, and then Li Qiang opened the door and walked in, blurting out: "Captain Gu, how have you considered that matter?"
As soon as these words came out, Wang Tianxiang immediately pricked up his ears, but Li Qiang suddenly changed his words and said, "Hey, Director Wang, you haven't left yet? How about I come back later?"
"Wait a minute, Section Chief Ming!" Seeing Li Qiang about to leave, Wang Tianxiang hurriedly stopped him, "Can you please explain what the 'that thing' you just said refers to?"
"It's not an important thing to mention, so don't mention it!"
"No! I think it's better for Section Chief Ming to mention it, otherwise if Colonel Longchuan finds out, the nature of it will be different."
"This...well, Director Wang, I'm not afraid of making fun of you. My fiancée is fine everywhere, but she is very jealous. When we were in Shanghai, she once caused a big fuss in the government office because of her jealousy. If this happens,
She knows that I am locked up with Colonel Li again, so why not... So, I just want Captain Gu to help me put on a play."
"acting?"
"Yeah, I can't help it! You didn't see her look like when she was angry. Even just thinking about it makes me feel scary. You don't want the dinner carefully prepared by Colonel Longchuan to be ruined by a jealous woman.
Is it disturbed?"
…
"Did they really say that?" After listening to Wang Tianxiang's retelling, Ryukawa Hihara narrowed his eyes and confirmed.
"Really, it's word for word!" After saying this, Wang Tianxiang paused for a moment, and then couldn't help but said, "Colonel, I still think Wu Zhiguo is the most suspicious. Think about it, what is written on his resume?
?Both of his parents died when he was young, and he has no relatives. Even his name was given by Qian Huyi. What is this? He was raised from birth? Or did he jump out of the cracks of rocks? He is not a monkey! Let me tell you,
This is the flaw left by the old ghost because the story was not compiled well!"
Before he finished speaking, Shen Lanqing on the side couldn't help but said: "Director Wang, you still don't understand the Red Party too well. In order to lurk the next spy, the creator of the spy can create a Noah out of thin air on the lonely sea.
Ark is here, but I won’t compile such a doubtful resume!”
"That's right." Ryukawa Hihara agreed, "Director Wang, besides that, did you find anything suspicious?"
"Yes, even when I was telling Wu Zhiguo these things, he kept staring at me." Wang Tianxiang pointed at his throat as he spoke.
Ryukawa Feihara couldn't help laughing after hearing this, "It seems that the old ghost was not caught, and Director Wang became a ghost first. But more than this, I want to see whether the fiancée of Section Chief Ming is like He is such a jealous woman as he said."
As soon as Longchuan Feiyuan mentioned Li Qiang, a gloomy look immediately appeared on Shen Lanqing's face.
On the side, Wang Tianxiang hurriedly said: "Colonel, are you doubting Section Chief Ming?"
"How many times have I told you, I doubt everyone. But this time, my curiosity is greater than my suspicion." As he said that, Ryukawa Hihara picked up his pen and wrote six invitations in a flash, then threw them away. He gave it to Wang Tianxiang, "Then please go there personally, Director Wang, and invite all these people here!"
While Wang Tianxiang took the invitation with both hands, he nodded and bowed and said: "It should be done, it should be done! I accept my order from my humble position!"
…
After leaving Qiuzhuang, Wang Tianxiang led people straight to the Shiku concierge of Li Ningyu's house.
"Knock knock knock...Mr. Pan, is Mr. Pan at home?"
"Come on, come on! What are you yelling about?" Wang Tianxiang patiently knocked on the door for ten minutes. Pan Hanqing, who was wearing pajamas, unkempt face, and looking like he was just waking up from a hangover, finally opened the door with a grumble.
"May I ask if you are Mr. Pan?"
Unexpectedly, Pan Hanqing shook his head and corrected: "Only those who have an official position are called sir! I am Lao Pan now! Who are you?"
"Oh, I am Wang Tianxiang, director of the Secret Service of the Suppression Headquarters. I am an old colleague of Colonel Li."
"Oh." Pan Hanqing nodded and said with a clear look, "Let's go then! I'm going to change clothes."
"Hey, wait a minute, Mr. Pan, I'm a little confused. You just said...where are you going?"
As soon as these words came out, Pan Hanqing was stunned for a moment and asked: "Are you still asking me? Aren't you here to arrest me? I beat someone in your headquarters and made a mess."
Wang Tianxiang smiled, "It's not arrest, it's invitation! To be honest, Colonel Li is performing a confidential mission and I'm afraid he won't be able to return home for a few days. Colonel Longchuan specially asked me to invite his family members to a banquet tonight. Express condolences."
With that said, Wang Tianxiang took out the invitation and handed it over.
"Oh, condolences?" Pan Hanqing just glanced at the invitation and couldn't help but chuckled, "I have nothing to do with that woman for a long time. Even if she died in the line of duty, she would not be able to express condolences to me. Bar?"
"Mr. Pan, you can't say that, can you? As the saying goes, a husband and a wife will live together for a hundred days. Noisy things are common. It happened that Colonel Longchuan was here tonight. Let's sit down and talk together. What contradiction cannot be resolved?"
Before he finished speaking, Pan Hanqing suddenly said, "Director Wang, can you borrow some money?"
"Borrow...borrow money?"
"Yes! She has been gone for so many days, and all the servants have left. She provides subsidies to support the family!"
"That's it! How much do you need?"
"Just watch and give it!"
Wang Tianxiang had no choice but to take out a wad of banknotes from his pocket and handed it over, "I came out in a hurry, I didn't take much, so just be there for the sake of urgency!"
"Thank you!" Pan Hanqing grabbed the banknotes and counted them, then put them away with satisfaction, "By the way, Director Wang, ask her to return them to you when you get back!"
"No need, Mr. Pan, this little money..."
"If I ask you to go back to her and pay her back, just pay her back! I, Lao Pan, never take other people's things for nothing, but she is different. She owes me."
"I understand! We are a family when we borrow and return things! There are certain rules that cannot be violated. Then Mr. Pan, please come to the banquet on time tonight."
"Oh, okay, okay, I got it!"
"Then I'll take my leave first." After saying that, Wang Tianxiang was ready to leave.
However, before he could reach the door, Pan Hanqing's voice rang again, "Wait a minute, Qiuzhuang? Is he here too?"
"who?"
"Hmph! You know what you're asking, so of course it's Captain Wu Zhiguo."
"Mr. Pan."
"Call me Lao Pan!"
"Old Pan, based on my understanding of Colonel Li, there must be some misunderstanding. You..."
"I asked you if Wu Zhiguo is also in Qiuzhuang?"
"……exist."
"Very good, then please trouble Director Wang to go back and tell Colonel Longchuan that Pan will be on time for the banquet tonight!"
Wang Tianxiang, who thought that Pan Hanqing was up to something again, never expected that Pan Hanqing's attitude suddenly changed 180 degrees. While he was surprised, the hanging stone in his heart finally came to an end.
fell to the ground.
Wang Tianxiang's second stop was at Jin Shenghuo's house.
Unlike at Li Ningyu's house before, Wang Tianxiang took out the spy camera he carried as soon as he entered the house and carefully photographed every corner of the living room of Jin Shenghuo's house.
But because he was so engrossed in filming, he didn't even notice someone appeared behind him. It wasn't until the vague meow came from behind that he suddenly turned around as if he had been electrocuted.
Come.
"Don't stop, Director Wang, keep taking photos. When you have taken enough photos, we will talk again!"
Wang Tianxiang quickly put away the camera and said with a dry smile: "I didn't expect that Director Jin's home would have so many foreign gadgets. On a whim, I took a few pictures and made Miss Jin laugh."
"Director Wang, let's stop talking about this! I always like you to be straightforward. Let's be honest. Was it my father who asked you to come?"
"No, it's the deputy chief of the secret service, Colonel Longchuan!" With that said, Wang Tianxiang handed over the invitation.
Unexpectedly, Miss Jin's hand slipped intentionally or unintentionally when receiving it, and the invitation fell to the ground.
Wang Tianxiang's face suddenly darkened, "Miss Jin, don't blame me for not reminding you, this is an invitation written by Colonel Longchuan himself. What you are hitting is not my face, but Colonel Longchuan, the Japanese
s face!"
"What are you talking about, Colonel or Second Colonel? My father is a major general! What is your rank? You dare to send me an invitation."
Hearing this, Wang Tianxiang took a deep breath, then bent down to pick up the invitation, forced a smile on his face, and read aloud: "On the 23rd of April in the Chinese calendar, prepare for the dinner.
We are waiting for you, Miss Jin Ruoxian. We sincerely reserve the place in Feiyuan, Longchuan. The location is Qiuzhuang and the time is seven o'clock in the evening. Miss Jin, I have already informed you of the content of the invitation. As for whether you want to go or not, it is up to you!"
After saying that, Wang Tianxiang waved his hand and walked away without looking back.
It wasn't until Wang Tianxiang left that Miss Jin dropped the cat in her arms, read the contents of the invitation carefully, and then said angrily: "Qiuzhuang? What the hell is this place?"
Wang Tianxiang, who had just gotten angry, just came out of Jin Shenghuo's house and went straight to Bai Xiaonian's residence.
But after he spent a lot of effort, he finally found out Bai Xiaonian's exact address, pushed the door open and walked into the house where he and his uncle lived, and was almost pushed out by the overwhelming stench.
.
Before Wang Tianxiang could figure out the situation, he heard someone coughing on the bed and yelling: "Ahem, cough, you unfilial thing! You left me here alone and didn't care about me! If I had known better, I would have given you up."
Choked to death!"
"Old man, you have mistaken the person. I am Bai Xiaonian's colleague of Secretary Bai." Wang Tianxiang covered his nose with his hand and said while retching.
However, the old man seemed not only unable to take care of himself, but also had trouble using his ears. "What...what?"
"I'm Bai Xiaonian's colleague of Secretary Bai! I'm here to invite you to a banquet tonight!"
"Let's have a banquet? Okay! Then... just cough, cough, cough... just carry me there!"
"Don't worry, I'll find someone to clean it up for you first!" After saying that, Wang Tianxiang put the invitation on the table, and then retreated as if running away. After giving a few instructions to his men, he hurriedly left.
As soon as Wang Tianxiang left, the old man who was still paralyzed on the bed climbed up from the bed. His movements were more agile than those of the young people. After confirming Wang Tianxiang's departure through the half-closed window, he quickly walked to the phone.
A phone number was dialed...
The most unlucky person in this situation is Wang Tianxiang. First he made him angry at Jin Shenghuo's house, and then he got smelly from Bai Xiaonian's house, which forced him to take a shower and change into a clean suit.
Wearing decent clothes, he came to Gu Mansion without stopping.
But after waiting for a long time, I only saw Gu Minzhang's housekeeper, Miss Zhao.
"I'm sorry, Director Wang, for keeping you waiting."
"It doesn't matter. I know President Gu is very busy every day. I should be embarrassed to come here. As for attending the banquet..."
"Oh, sir, he said, leave the invitation, and he will definitely go if he has time."
Hearing this, Wang Tianxiang couldn't help being stunned, "Ah? Is that...that's it?"
"Director Wang, do you have anything else to do?"
"I...I still want to pay a visit to Chairman Gu in person. Captain Gu has something he wants me to say to the president."
"That's such an unfortunate coincidence. Sir, he is meeting a very important guest, which involves the economy of the entire new government. I'm afraid I don't have time to meet with Director Wang. I'm really sorry!"
"That's it, then, excuse me, take my leave!" Seeing that Miss Zhao had already said this, Wang Tianxiang had no choice but to leave.
Little did they know that the conversation between the two was clearly seen by Gu Minzhang who was standing behind the window on the second floor. Just after Wang Tianxiang left, a glass of red wine was delivered to him, followed immediately by a magnetic voice.
It rang, "President Gu, count the days, this is already the third day, and there is not much time left for us. I think you should have made a decision, right?"
