"Just now I was thinking about which old brother came to see me, but I didn't expect it was two young people! How did you know the code word for the connection?"
As soon as they met, Li Weigong led the two of them directly into a secret room and asked in a deep voice with a solemn expression.
Li Qiang was already prepared and took out a letter from his arms and handed it over.
"Is it a poisonous snake? No wonder..." After reading the letter, Li Weigong relaxed his vigilance a little and said with a sudden realization.
"Stationmaster Li, now that the letter has been delivered, our mission is completed. Let's take our leave!"
"Wait!" Just as the two were about to say goodbye, they were stopped by Li Weigong, "If I remember correctly, I don't seem to have introduced myself from beginning to end, right? But you did
Without even asking, he took out the letter and called me stationmaster Li, could it be that you have met me before?"
Li Qiang smiled and said, "In November of the 26th year of the Republic of China, Boss Dai decided to set up a special training class in Qingpu. He personally served as the director of the special training class. He personally presided over the opening ceremony and gave a long speech. Daily work was handled by the deputy director.
Yu Lexing presided over it, and what you, Stationmaster Li, were teaching at the time was strategic intelligence analysis, right?"
"Yes, so you are my student?" Li Weigong couldn't help but frown after hearing this, looked at Li Qiang carefully, and then shook his head, "But why do I have no impression of you at all?
"
"Of course, because I am not your student."
"Then you are..."
"When we first retreated from Shanghai, the Qingpu special training class had been open for less than a month. We were forced to be led by Mr. Yu and passed through Suzhou, Lishui, Fanchang, Jiujiang, and finally arrived in Qimen County. However, the war was chaotic and many students walked away along the way.
They dispersed, and when they finally arrived at Qimen, there were only about a hundred people."
"Yes, so many children have been separated like this, and some of them have not been heard from yet. Every time I think of this, I..." Speaking of this, Li Weigong choked up unconsciously.
Li Qiang continued to remind: "I wonder if Stationmaster Li still remembers what happened next?"
"Of course I remember, at that time I..." Just as he was speaking, Li Weigong paused suddenly, then slapped his forehead and said excitedly, "I remembered, you were the boy who was my helper at that time!
It seems to be called...Aqiang, right?"
"Stationmaster Li is Stationmaster Li. It's been so long, but I can still remember it so clearly."
"Well, to tell you the truth, I will never forget the scene at that time in my life!" After saying this, Li Weigong glanced at Haitang, who was standing silently next to Li Qiang, and couldn't help but ask curiously
He said, "Who is this?"
"My wife is also my traffic officer."
As soon as these words came out, Li Weigong showed an expression that was true, "Okay, as the saying goes, in a war, brothers fight, and father and son fight in the battle. A virtuous couple willing to go to the national calamity is really a blessing to the party and the country!"
Speaking of this, Li Weigong couldn't help but sigh again, "To be honest, when I saw the two of you, I couldn't help but think of my dear friend who had just passed away. You have to know that his daughter was still so young and so unknown.
You didn’t go in vain, you said this... ugh!"
"Why did Station Master Li say this? Is there something fishy about the death of your best friend?"
"Isn't that true? He was fine one day, but died in the library office the next day. There was no external injury on his body, and there were no signs of a fight in the room. Even the forensic doctor only said it was due to mental stress after examining the body.
He died of heart failure. But people who know him well know that he is usually very healthy and goes to the hospital for regular check-ups every month. How could he suddenly die of heart failure? So..."
"You mean that your best friend was poisoned?"
"Other than that, there is no other possibility." Li Weigong nodded quickly and said, but then he changed the topic and introduced Li Qiang, "The name of this close friend I am talking about is Xu Zankun, whose courtesy name is Dishan.
And he is better known by his pen name, Luo Huasheng. Do you know why this place is called the Ancient Books Library?"
"I've heard a little bit about it."
"Now that things have happened, I will not hide it from you. In fact, in addition to the public identity of the director of this ancient books library, Brother Dishan also has another identity, that is, the custodian of ancient books. Those who have spent countless
He was responsible for keeping the precious ancient books that had been rescued from the Nanjing Central Library after a lot of manpower and material resources. However, as the news outside became louder and louder, even you as far away as Shanghai had heard about it, and naturally it spread.
In the ears of the Japanese. So the Japanese Consulate began to put pressure on the Hong Kong government to forcibly acquire this place. Although it failed in the end due to the intervention of a big shot, but based on my understanding of the Japanese, they will never just buy it.
So willing to give up."
"and after?"
"Later, the Japanese found Luo Baoshan, the most powerful talker in the Kowloon area, and sent people here to cause trouble every once in a while. The place was filled with smoke, chickens and dogs were restless, and everyone was disturbed. In desperation, I had no choice but to go to Du
The boss intervened, and when Boss Du heard about it, he readily agreed without saying a word. However, the day after the two parties agreed on the time and place for tea, something happened to Brother Dishan."
"So, you suspect that Luo Baoshan did it?"
"Nine times out of ten, although I have suspicions, I cannot intervene in the investigation, otherwise the entire Hong Kong station will be at risk of being exposed. So if you can, I would like to ask you to help me find out the truth about this matter. Although I
It is inconvenient for me to intervene directly, but I will still give you the greatest support possible. I wonder if Brother Aqiang is willing?"
"How can such a loyal person be allowed to die uncontrollably? I just have other important things to do, so I can't stay here for a long time. The full time is only five days. But don't worry, even so, I will go all out and strive to do my best.
Seek justice for the deceased and give an explanation to the family."
"Okay, I really saw the right person." After saying that, he took out a business card from his arms, handed it to Li Qiang, and continued, "Kowloon District is Luo Baoshan's territory, and it is very exclusive, so I suggest you
It’s better to go find him first.”
"Bai Yanchang?" Li Qiang looked at the name on the business card and said to himself.
"Yes, this person is a Chinese detective from Kowloon District, and he is very prestigious locally. If he is willing to come forward, things will be much easier to handle."
"Well, I understand." Having said this, Li Qiang paused for a moment before finally telling the real purpose of his trip, "There is one more thing, stationmaster Li, to tell you the truth, I would like to tell Mr. Du of Hengshe
The boss has admired me for a long time, and I heard that you have a close friendship with him, so can you please help me introduce him to him?"
"This..." To be honest, if Li Qiang had made this request from the beginning, Li Weigong would have refused on the spot, but now that he was asking for something, how could he be so embarrassed? So he had no choice but to grit his teeth and agree, "
Well, since you promised to help me investigate the death of Brother Dishan, I can help you introduce him."
"Great! Seven o'clock in the evening, Lichi Garden, what do you think, Stationmaster Li?"
"I know, but I can't guarantee whether Boss Du is willing to keep the appointment!"
"If it were someone else, it might be like this. Based on your friendship, I think Boss Du would not offend you."
"Don't tell me, you are really good at reading people's hearts." Li Weigong laughed and cursed after hearing this.
"It's just some low-level tricks to make a living. It doesn't work on the stage and makes stationmaster Li laugh. In that case, I'll wait for you two at Lichi Garden tonight."
After saying that, Li Qiang stood up to say goodbye and left the library with Haitang through the back door.
…
"Um...what was written in the letter you gave to Stationmaster Li just now? Can you tell me?" It wasn't until the two returned to the car that Haitang finally couldn't help but ask.
Li Qiang smiled and replied: "Tell you the truth! That letter is fake!"
"What? Fake?"
"Of course, the Viper is supposed to be in a dormant state now. How can it contact the organization without permission without orders from above?"
"That's right! This is a taboo. If Boss Dai knows about it, he will be punished by family law."
"So, in Li Weigong's opinion, the eldest brother must have received an order from above before writing him this letter."
"Then what did you write?"
"It's nothing. I just analyzed the current situation for him and told him clearly that once the Japanese choose to move south, Hong Kong will inevitably become the first stop, so they need to prepare early."
"So, you went around in such a big circle just to get Stationmaster Li to introduce you to Du Yuesheng?"
"That's right!"
"But haven't you met Du Yuesheng before? Why do you have to go in such a big circle?"
"That's true, but some things are not as simple as they seem. Don't forget that my current public identity is that of a traitor, so this circle must be circled. Only by going around this circle, things will have more explanations.
Room, do you understand?"
"I guess... I understand. Then... where should we go now? Looking for the man named Bai?"
"No, go to your house."
"my home?"
"Hey, don't forget, you are the eldest lady of the Quanye Chamber of Commerce, so the headquarters of the Quanye Chamber of Commerce is naturally your home!"
"It's not like you don't know that my identity as the eldest lady is inherently fake."
"That's what I say, but you can't deny that President Gu has always treated you as his daughter, right?"
"That's not because his real daughter has...forget it, don't talk about it, just drive!"
Half an hour later, the car stopped steadily at the entrance of Quanye Chamber of Commerce.
"Hello, welcome to Quanye Chamber of Commerce. Do you need anything?" As soon as he entered the door, a beautiful woman who looked like a manager took the initiative to greet her and greeted her warmly.
"Is President Gu here? We have something to see him."
"Sorry, the president is in a meeting now. May I ask your surname, sir?"
"bright!"
"Okay, Mr. Ming, do you have an appointment?"
Before she finished speaking, Haitang couldn't help but chuckle and asked: "What's the appointment for? Do we, father and daughter, need to make an appointment in advance if we want to meet? My dear, ignore her, let's go in and find her directly.
"
After saying that, he pulled Li Qiang without any explanation and walked straight inside.
This made the female manager so anxious that she hurriedly chased after her. As she ran, she kept shouting: "Wait a minute! You two, please wait a minute! President Gu is really in a meeting. You...
...You can't barge in like this! Quick! Someone help me stop them!"
Not to mention that this move was really effective, the security personnel who heard the greeting soon blocked the two people in the corridor leading to the conference room.
"What do you want to do? Are you rebelling? If you dare to block my way, please get out of my way!" Needless to say, when Haitang lost her temper, she was like a pampered young lady, and she immediately threw those
The security personnel were frightened, and even the female manager began to beat her heart.
At this moment, the door of the conference room suddenly opened, and then a tall and slender figure walked out of it, yelling angrily: "What are you doing? What do you look like making such a noise? Is there a meeting going on inside?"
what happened?"
Before she finished speaking, the female manager immediately stepped forward and explained: "Miss Qin, the thing is like this, those two..."
However, before she could finish her words, Miss Qin, whose face was filled with sullen expression just a second ago, opened her eyes wide and cried out in surprise and joy, "Qinghe? Oh my God, I'm not dreaming, am I? What are you doing?"
Why don't you say anything when you come back? Come here quickly and let Sister Qin take a good look!"
While Miss Qin was speaking, Haitang was also quickly retrieving all the information about her in her mind, and quickly recalled several key pieces of information. The full name of Miss Qin was Qin Huayun.
He was eight years old. When he was sixteen, he had been with Gu Hansheng to help with daily affairs. Although he was smart and capable at work, he had never found a home in love, so he was still single to this day.
"Sister Huayun, I haven't seen you for so many years, but you are still so beautiful."
Facts have proven that women of any age will be elated when they hear others complimenting her on her beauty. Even Qin Huayun, who has always been arrogant and cold to outsiders, is no exception.
But even though she was already happy in her heart, Qin Huayun still waved her hand, "What's so beautiful about you? It's you, we haven't seen each other for a few years, and you've already become a great beauty."
Speaking of this, Qin Huayun couldn't help but sigh, and the expression on her face dimmed, "If there hadn't been something wrong with the Chamber of Commerce before, my sister wouldn't have missed your wedding last month. You must
Do you hate your sister so much?"
"That's not true! Otherwise, why would I come all the way back? I'm just here to settle a score with you!"
Seeing Haitang's angry look, Qin Huayun couldn't help but feel funny, "Okay, okay! It was my sister who was at fault first. You can punish her however you want. That's alright, right?"
"Hmph! That's pretty much it!"
Qin Huayun then turned to look at Li Qiang aside. Then, like a face change in a Sichuan opera, she instantly switched to a cold look. She looked at Li Qiang carefully and asked coldly, "You..."
