"Very good, I found a yard for you at No. 10 Youche Lane. It's a little small, but the safety is still guaranteed. From now on, that place will be your new contact point. Here is the key!"
With that said, Li Qiang casually threw the key in his hand towards the three of them from a distance.
Although the lights in the warehouse were very dim, Yu Dacheng immediately stepped forward and took the bunch of keys steadily with quick eyes and hands.
Li Qiang then continued: "In addition, I have prepared new identities for each of you there, so your first task is to adapt to this new identity in the shortest possible time. Is there any problem?"
"No." The three of them quickly replied in unison.
"Very good, let's do this first, disband!"
After saying that, Li Qiang's figure retreated into the shadows, disappearing in the blink of an eye, as if he had never appeared from the beginning to the end, and all three people were shocked and froze in place.
I don't know how long it took for the three of them to come back to their senses, and then they quietly left the warehouse in the dark of night and headed straight towards Oil Truck Alley.
But not long after the three people left, Li Qiang's figure actually emerged from the shadows again. It turned out that he had not left just now, but had restrained his aura and used a cover-up trick.
After handling the affairs of the three people, Li Qiang headed back home. However, not far from his door, he saw a figure lingering outside his door, and he immediately slowed down.
, leaned over.
"Gengmei? Why are you here? Is there anything wrong with coming here so late?"
"Ah!" As soon as these words came out, Shen Gengmei was immediately frightened. Perhaps because she had been immersed in the entanglement just now, she didn't even notice Li Qiang behind her, so she was so frightened.
.
But when she saw clearly that the person coming was Li Qiang, a blush immediately appeared on her face, "Director...I..."
"Don't be impatient. Speak slowly. It's windy outside. How about we go in and talk?"
"No, no need. Just two sentences. I... I'll leave after I finish speaking." After saying that, he took something out of his pocket and stuffed it into Li Qiang's hand.
"This is……"
"The Qingxiang Committee's special pass, with it, the entire Jiangsu and Zhejiang areas will be unimpeded." Shen Gengmei lowered her head and whispered like a little woman, "While your godfather is not here, you'd better leave quickly! Otherwise, he will
His character, when he frees up his hands, you may not be able to leave even if you want to!"
To be honest, Li Qiang was somewhat surprised by Shen Gengmei's appearance. After all, in the eyes of outsiders, she and Li Shiqun had completely broken off. Logically speaking, what she had to do was to draw a clear line with herself as much as possible, but she not only
Instead of doing this, he got a pass from nowhere to help him escape, which is very abnormal no matter how you look at it.
As the saying goes, there must be a monster when things go wrong. In Li Qiang's opinion, there are only two possibilities for this woman to do this. Either she really fell in love with him and would even risk everything for herself; or...
Thinking of this, Li Qiang handed the pass back to Shen Gengmei, and said nonchalantly: "Gengmei, this matter is not as serious as you think. In the end, I just Our Secretary-General Li just took a share of the credit, didn't he also burn down my family's cruise ship? This matter can be considered even, there is no need to be so nervous, right?"
Before she finished speaking, Shen Gengmei quickly shook her head, "No, that's not the case. Director, you don't know. This matter has made my godfather and the others very angry. Plus my aunt is fanning the flames. It's definitely not going to happen." To give up so easily, burning the cruise ship is just the beginning, maybe it won’t go away like this until my uncle’s matter comes to an end.”
"It doesn't matter. If they really intend to continue fighting, then just go ahead and take action. I'll go on to say, it's not a big deal, but if that happens, you will be caught in the middle."
"Me?" Shen Gengmei couldn't help but be startled after hearing this, and then her pretty face became even more rosy. After a long while, she said softly, "It's okay with me. As long as...as long as I can continue to stay by your side..."
"What did you say?"
Although Shen Gengmei's voice was very quiet, Li Qiang could hear it clearly with his hearing.
But even so, Li Qiang still asked knowingly.
"No...it's nothing...I mean, if you really don't plan to leave, please don't drive me away. If you can, even if I am your spy, I...I am willing..."
"Really? Those are all your relatives, why are they still willing to help me, an outsider?"
"Relatives?! Ha!" Shen Gengmei couldn't help but sneered after hearing this, and a layer of frost formed on her face almost instantly, "What kind of relatives? In their eyes, they are nothing more than tools in their hands. If not, If I looked pretty, I'm afraid they would have abandoned me long ago."
Li Qiang just listened quietly and didn't say anything, because what she said was right.
"That's all I have to say, whether you believe it or not. Since you don't plan to leave, just pretend I haven't been here." After saying that, Shen Gengmei bowed and turned around to leave. .
It wasn't until her lonely and desolate figure was about to disappear at the end of the alley that Li Qiang stopped her and said "Thank you" from a distance.
Even though he was far away, Li Qiang could clearly see that the beautiful figure shook violently, and then his shoulders began to shrug uncontrollably...
After an unknown amount of time, Shen Gengmei straightened up and continued walking forward, and soon disappeared into the vast darkness of the night. Only then did Li Qiang let out a sigh of relief and turned around to enter his yard.
However, as soon as he entered the yard, Li Qiang's face suddenly darkened, as if he was talking to himself: "When did you get into the bad habit of eavesdropping on other people's walls?"
Before he finished speaking, Matsuoka Yui came out from behind a stone pillar and said with a half-smile: "If I say I was bored, I happened to overhear the conversation between you when I went out to set off a few fireworks. , would you believe it?”
"What do you think?"
"It's up to you! But to be honest, I can understand Miss Shen's mood to a certain extent. Maybe this is called 'sympathizing with each other'!"
However, before he finished speaking, Haitang's voice rang out unceremoniously, "What kind of 'sympathy for the same disease' is this? Stop being so sentimental!"
Matsuoka Yui also showed no signs of weakness, "Sister Haitang, do you know that it is very impolite for you to suddenly interrupt other people's conversations like this?"
"Is that so? But I don't think Miss Matsuoka was quite unscrupulous when she interfered in other people's marriages? Why can't she even stand this now?"
"What, do you want to quarrel?"
"Just make a noise. Do you think I'm afraid of you?"
…
The two of them were like two kittens with blown fur at the moment. They didn't give in to each other's words, and each one was louder than the other.
However, it was only when the two of them were arguing that their mouths were dry, that they were shocked to find that Li Qiang had already ran back to the room at some point!
In the next few days, although the relationship between Li Qiang and Li Shiqun was still a bit subtle, perhaps as Shen Gengmei said, Li Shiqun at this time had focused all his energy on fighting Gao Guanwu. , there was no room for action at all, so the two sides were in peace with each other.
In comparison, Nanjing is very lively.
Under Chen Bijun's instruction, Li Shiqun first found Colonel Kaneko, a Japanese consultant stationed in the Jiangsu Government Office, with a large amount of evidence and materials. As expected, Gao Guanwu did not consult as a consultant before making a decision. Colonel Kaneko's opinion, so Colonel Kaneko was furious when he heard what he said, and then he wrote a report in his own hand and reported it truthfully to Kage Sasaki.
Immediately afterwards, Li Shiqun rushed to Nanjing without stopping, filed an impeachment complaint with the Procuratorate, and listed Gao Guanwu's ten major crimes in one breath, showing his determination to fight him to the end.
Gao Guanwu did not sit still and wait for death. On the one hand, he publicly showed weakness and pretended to eliminate Chen Qun who came to be the peacemaker between the two. On the other hand, he secretly gathered strength and formed the so-called Qingxiang Service Team under the slogan of the Qingxiang Movement. The evil deeds of roaming the countryside, preying on the common people, setting up interrogation stations everywhere to collect bribes and tolls, etc., were completely exposed.
For a while, the two sides were at loggerheads, with each other going back and forth, and then I would appear on stage after you sang. New evidence and evil deeds were constantly being exposed almost every day.
Just when Gao and Li were fighting with each other, the Japanese, who should have become a decisive force, chose to sit on the sidelines and never made a clear statement.
The reason is also very simple. Sasaki helped Li Shiqun fall. This was Shibayama Kenshiro's intention. Shibayama's intention was also the intention of the military department. The main reason for this was to win over businessmen from Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Of course, they did not want to see it. Li Shiqun's family was dominated by Li Shiqun, so he did not attack Gao Guanwu under such a general premise. Instead, he sometimes helped Gao Guanwu secretly.
So, an endless officialdom fight gradually turned into a dog-eat-dog farce.
But even though they knew this, the two sides still chose to continue the fight in a tacit understanding, because it was the emergence of this farce that allowed Li Shiqun to secure the top spot in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and also made the remaining reformist officials work closely together
United together, even the Japanese found an opportunity to win over businessmen from Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Judging from the results alone, it seems that it is still a win-win situation for the three parties, so they naturally reached some kind of strange tacit understanding and are very likely to carry out the farce to the end.
the trend of.
As everyone knows, the real benefit from this dog-eat-dog farce is not that Li Shiqun, who is bent on overthrowing Gao Guanwu so that he can dominate the Jiangsu and Zhejiang regions, nor is he risking his life to keep his last foothold within the Nanjing government.
This Gao Guanwu is not a Japanese who looks like he is watching the fire from the other side and does not help each other. In fact, he is greedy in his heart and is thinking about his own little calculations all the time. He is the Japanese who just took over Minglou just recently and is in urgent need of making a name for himself.
"Shanghai Poster"!
You must know that so much black material and news are almost all exposed and made public to the world through "Shanghai Poster"!
With Minglou's shrewdness, he would not let go of such a golden opportunity. He immediately grasped the overwhelming wealth in his hands. The entire newspaper office saw the opportunity and went to full power, making a big move.
The fight between the two became a sensation.
As the deputy editor, Qian Guanqing has directly transformed into a master of rhythm. Today he published an article criticizing Li Shiqun for condoning his subordinates' evil deeds, and tomorrow he will write an article exposing the shady affairs of Jiangsu and Zhejiang officialdom. There will be a special report in the morning and a follow-up report in the afternoon. Let's start here.
He said a few words of ridicule and a few words of anger on the other side, and you could see his figure jumping up and down almost everywhere.
Soon, "What new news has been revealed in "Shanghai Poster" today?" has become the most common greeting among people in Shanghai, Nanjing and other places after meeting, and it has even vaguely threatened the status of "Eat Me".
Of course, as the saying goes, some people are happy and some are sad, and if someone laughs, someone will cry. If the whole incident looked embarrassing from beginning to end, it was the Nanjing government.
After all, no matter what the final outcome of the struggle between Gao and Li was, it was the Nanjing government that was embarrassed in the end and made people laugh. But even though they hated the "Shanghai Poster" in their hearts, they still had to spend a lot of money.
Use your money to buy press releases from newspapers and clean up your image.
It feels like a mute eating yellow lotus - it’s so painful that it’s hard to describe!
In the end, it was Zhou Fohai who came forward to mediate, and this farce was able to come to an end for the time being as both parties took a step back.
And everyone knows that this is not the beginning, but the prelude before a bigger storm arrives.
However, what surprised everyone was that Li Shiqun, who finally had his hands free, did not turn around and start rectifying the "internal problems" of the Qingxiang Committee as expected by the outside world, but directly approached the Japanese military headquarters for negotiations.
.
The time has come to January 24, the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month.
That night, Li Shiqun secretly summoned several close associates to a gathering at his VIP residence in Lion Grove. In addition to Wang Manyun, Wan Lilang, Panda and others, there were also two special people invited. One was Tang Shengming,
The other one was Li Qiang, who surprised everyone.
In the reception room, Li Shiqun first ordered his servants to serve a bowl of steaming Laba porridge to everyone present, and then in a very relaxed state, he drank the porridge and said: "We are all our own people here, what's the matter?"
Let me tell you the truth. I have called you here in this cold weather for no other reason than for one thing. As for what it is, I think you will know it even if I don’t tell you. After delaying it for so long, you should get it.
The idea has come up, which one of you will start it first?"
Li Shiqun's voice was not loud, and even his tone was as if he was chatting at a banquet. But every word he spoke was as sharp as a knife and as cold as iron, making people shudder. The whole room was full of people.
