"Sato-san, I have always been your most loyal subordinate." Geng Chaozhong bowed slightly.
"Oh, that's right," Sato was stunned for a moment and his eyes flicked to Geng Chaozhong's face, "Date-kun, you are also the person I trust most."
"However," after saying this, Sato turned to look at the other instructors, with a smile on his face, then looked at Geng Chaozhong with concern, and laughed loudly: "For the next task, you will
Don’t participate anymore, you have to give some of the credit to others!”
There was a burst of echoing laughter from all around, and Geng Chaozhong also nodded with a smile and said: "You are right, I haven't fought for a long time, and I almost couldn't stand it just now. It's time for me to go back and rest!"
"I'll ask Xiangzi to take you back." Sato whispered into Geng Chaozhong's ear.
"Okay, thank you Sato-san for your concern." Geng Chaozhong replied gratefully.
Sato called Xiangzi, gave a few instructions, and then led everyone away. Xiangzi smiled brightly, held Geng Chaozhong's arm, and said happily: "Hero, let's go?"
Geng Chaozhong nodded and was about to get into a car next to him. Xiangzi suddenly grabbed him, pointed at his neck and asked, "What's wrong with your neck?"
"Oh," Geng Chaozhong touched the back of his neck. His hand still felt wet. "I didn't know where I scratched it just now. It's a small thing."
"It's better to wrap it up!" Xiangzi said with concern.
"No, I'll do it myself when I get back." Geng Chaozhong turned up his collar and got into the car, while Xiangzi walked to the front seat and drove the car herself.
The car started and drove towards Tsukishima. Geng Chaozhong leaned back on the seat, closed his eyes and fell asleep. Xiangzi was about to speak, but looked back at Geng Chaozhong and closed his mouth.
At 12 o'clock in the middle of the night, the two finally returned to Tsukishima. At this time, the huge Mitsui Iron Works seemed even more empty. Xiangzi helped Geng Chaozhong into the dormitory, looked around and said: "It seems that the students haven't come back yet.
.”
"It's almost as if I haven't come back yet," Geng Chaozhong smiled, "I wasn't seriously injured, so why are you holding me up?"
"Well," Xiangzi stopped, as if she had something to say, but after hearing footsteps coming from the corridor, she immediately turned around and walked out, whispering: "You can rest! We'll talk tomorrow."
There was a knock on the door, and Yun Wei's voice sounded: "Instructor Guiwu, are you back?"
Xiangzi opened the door and said coldly: "Instructor Renliu, take good care of Instructor Guiwu, I'll leave first."
"Okay." Yun Wei nodded with a smile on his face, then lowered his head and got into Geng Chaozhong's bedroom.
"Close the door," Geng Chaozhong leaned on the bed and ordered Yun Wei. After Yun Wei closed the door and came closer, he whispered: "I may have been exposed."
"Didn't I expose myself? Why did it become you again?" Yun Wei's expression was serious, but his tone was relaxed.
"Listen to me," Geng Chaozhong motioned Yun Wei to sit down and began to whisper everything that happened today. Yun Wei frowned and listened carefully, and after a while he said, "You said, that Ding Wu wants to kill you?"
"Yes." Geng Chaozhong nodded.
"Could it be someone from the Soviet Union or the Japanese Communist Party?" Yun Wei frowned and asked.
"No, it doesn't make sense." Geng Chaozhong shook his head, "If it were someone from the Soviet Union, he could have done it behind my back when I called the door. There were people from the Soviet Union inside the door, attacking me from both sides.
There is no need to wait until we enter the house and subdue the other party before fighting alone with me. That is totally unnecessary."
"Yes, you are right," Yun Wei nodded, then his eyes lit up, "You mean, Ding Wu followed Sato's order to kill you?"
"That's right," Geng Chaozhong nodded, "I thought about it all the way, and this is the only possibility. Think about it, if Ding Wu is not from the Soviet Union, what will be the consequences of killing me then?"
"He will be strangled by two people in the room." Yun Wei's eyes became brighter and brighter.
"So, he must wait until my situation is stable before taking action. From here, we can prove that he is not from the Soviet Union!" Geng Chaozhong said categorically.
"So, you immediately killed Ding Wu?" Yun Wei asked.
"Yes," Geng Chaozhong nodded, "I didn't think everything through at the time, but I was already pretty sure that Ding Wu was not from the Soviet Union."
"When did Sato start to doubt you?" Yun Wei thought for a while and asked again.
"From the time he doubted you," Geng Chaozhong said slowly, "Maybe, he is not doubting you at all, but he is doubting me at all. No, it is not doubt, but confirmation!"
"This..." Yun Wei hesitated, "If he is sure that you are a spy, he can order you to be killed. There is no need to go to such trouble, right?"
"This is what I didn't understand..." Geng Chaozhong nodded, "So when I went out, I tested Sato, but Sato, an old fox, didn't show any clues at all. I'm a little unsure now.
Well, maybe it’s not Sato who doubts me, maybe there’s another reason?”
Yun Wei didn't speak anymore, his brows were furrowed like an iron lock. Obviously, there was a lot of fog here, and many things could not be solved.
"If Sato wants to kill you," Yun Wei finally said after a moment, "then why not let me do it? It would be more convenient for me to do it, or let Xiangzi do it."
"Neither you nor Xiangzi are the best candidates," Geng Chaozhong continued following the train of thought. "He is the one who doubts me. It does not necessarily mean that he does not doubt you and Xiangzi. After all, there is a possibility of accomplices between us. You know
, Xiangzi and I are the closest single-line contacts, and the time we spend together far exceeds the time Sato and Xiangzi spend together. Sato is not completely sure of where our relationship has reached."
"It's hard to say, it's hard to say." Yun Wei shook his head.
"We can only speculate up to this point for now," Geng Chaozhong suddenly laughed, "However, as long as Sato doesn't blatantly kill me, there is still room for change."
"Yes, as long as we are careful, we are still safe for the time being." Yun Wei nodded.
"From now on, we must be extremely careful when sleeping, traveling, and eating, so as not to leave any chance to others." Geng Chaozhong's tone became serious. "Although it is not yet certain that Sato has done anything, there is no need to be careful."
Wrong, additionally, additionally..."
Geng Chaozhong began to hesitate again, as if he was facing an important decision.
"It's not a solution to spend so much time," Geng Chaozhong stared at the dark night sky with his bright eyes, as if to draw a crack in this heavy black curtain, "We must find a way to break the situation, at least,
