Tongyuan Teahouse is also located on Dengshikou Street, only fifty meters away from the gendarmerie station. It was chosen to trap Ma Hansan here so that in the event of a firefight, the 1st Battalion of the gendarmerie could arrive in time for reinforcements.
At 5:50 in the evening, Director Mao walked into Tongyuan Tea House. He would not be in any danger. As long as Ma Hansan showed up, he would be arrested immediately.
A few minutes later, two cars drove over one after the other. The cars did not turn off and slowly stopped opposite the teahouse.
In a car in the distance, Li Xicheng's men said: "Director, do you want to arrest him now?"
Li Xicheng observed for a while. Except for two guards who got out of the car and patrolled around, Ma Hansan did not show up. He said: "Wait a minute, you have to be patient to catch big fish, understand?"
"clear!"
"Have you seen Captain Jiang?"
"He came here in the morning, and then he didn't see anyone."
"Are you sure he came to Peiping alone?"
"Sure!"
"Hmph, one person wants to arrest Ma Hansan. Young people don't know how high the sky is and how high it is!"
In Li Xicheng's view, Jiang Xinyu returned the jewelry box, which showed that he was ignorant of current affairs. A young lieutenant colonel used chicken feathers as command arrows, and he really took the inspector seriously!
It is now six o'clock in the evening. In winter in the north, the days are short and the nights are long. At this time, the sky is gradually getting dark.
Ma Hansan raised his wrist and glanced at his watch. Just as he was about to get off the car, his secretary Liu Yuzhu said: "Stationmaster, wait a minute. Why do I feel that something is wrong?"
Ma Hansan stopped opening the door, looked around for a while, and said, "What's wrong?"
Liu Yuzhu said: "Director Mao asked you to meet, but why didn't you see any warnings? I remember that when Dai... came to Peking, no matter where he went, mobile security personnel would be arranged to patrol the area."
Ma Hansan laughed and said: "You don't understand Director Mao's character. He is a cautious person all his life. Even if he arranges a warning, he will not let it be known openly!"
As he spoke, Ma Han opened the door and got out of the car, and Liu Yuzhu followed him. He was still uneasy and wanted to persuade the station manager to be careful.
"do not move!"
"Don't move!"
After receiving Li Xicheng's signal, the spies lying in wait rushed out and surrounded Ma Hansan and his men.
Just as Ma Hansan's men were about to draw their guns, Li Xicheng walked out of the shadows and said coldly: "Headquarters instructions are to ask Station Commander Ma to go to Nanjing for questioning. If there is resistance, he will be killed without mercy!"
Ma Hansan's guards looked at each other in confusion. They all knew Li Xicheng and knew that this was the director of the judicial department of the headquarters. After hearing what he said, they looked at the surrounding formations and slowly lowered their hands with guns.
Ma Hansan glared at Li Xicheng and said, "Director Li, what does this mean?"
Li Xicheng said coldly: "When you get to Nanjing, someone will tell you!"
"I want to see Director Mao!"
"You will meet Director Mao, but not now!"
After saying this, Li Xicheng waved his hand, and the two agents stuffed Ma Hansan into the car.
The arrest operation went so smoothly, Li Xicheng was very proud. Being able to arrest Ma Hansan with his own hands was a great achievement!
When Director Mao suddenly arrived in Peiping, Ma Hansan was not without vigilance, but anyone with a hidden agenda would be particularly sensitive.
However, Director Mao personally summoned him, and under the double pressure from the commission, there was no reason why he couldn't shirk it anyway.
Looking at it now, Ma Hansanquan understood that this was obviously a trap, and Director Mao wanted to catch him!
Two agents sandwiched him on the left and right. Li Xicheng sat in the passenger seat and said to the driver: "Drive!"
The car stepped on the accelerator and sped away from Dengshikou Street.
It was freezing cold, there were few people on the street, and the arrest only lasted a minute, so the arrest was almost invisible!
Even if someone saw this scene, they would just treat it as a plainclothes policeman performing official duties. This kind of thing happens often, and no one would have thought that the person arrested was actually Ma Hansan!
"Where are you taking me?" Ma Hansan looked calm.
Li Xicheng said: "Pao Bureau Prison!"
Ma Hansan was silent for a long time, sighed deeply, and said: "The cunning rabbit dies and is cooked by the lackeys, and the flying birds use their best bows to hide. This has been the case since ancient times! Director Li, my fate today will be a reflection of your tomorrow!"
Li Xicheng was shocked and concealed it by saying, "Ma Hansan, it's this time and you still have the heart to say some alarmist things. Think about your own problems!"
Ma Hansan sneered and said: "What's my problem? I just stood in the wrong team and didn't follow the Zhejiang Gang! Although Director Dai went west, he had the support of the old man. Within the Secrecy Bureau, whether it was Zheng Jiemin's Guangdong Gang or the Zhejiang Gang,
Tang Zong's Hunan Gang can't even compete with the Zhejiang Gang! Oh, I forgot, you are also from Hunan."
Li Xicheng didn't say anything. He actually agreed with what Ma Hansan said. The key departments of the Secrecy Bureau have always been controlled by the Zhejiang gang, including the headquarters and provincial stations. Most of the senior officials are from the Zhejiang gang.
Both directors are from Jiangshan, and among the Zhejiang gang, people from Jiangshan are the most popular. They are indeed very close to each other, and often communicate with each other in obscure Jiangshan dialects.
Yesterday, on the way to pick up Director Mao, Director Mao and Jiang Xinyu kept talking in Jiangshan dialect. They were obviously on guard against others, which made Li Xicheng feel very uneasy.
The special agents in custody in the car were also from Hunan and were close confidants of Li Xicheng. They also agreed with Ma Hansan's words and were fascinated by them without knowing it.
Ma Hansan looked out the car window. He knew very well that whether he could escape or not would depend on this!
"So, I am a northerner, who will they punish me if they don't punish me? Oh, by the way, Director Li, I advise you to restrain yourself." Ma Hansan continued to talk in a calm manner, distracting the attention of the people in the car.
Li Xicheng said: "I have fulfilled my duties for the party and the country, what should I restrain myself from?"
Ma Hansan sneered: "You can hide that thing from others, how can you hide it from me?"
Li Xicheng said sternly: "Ma Hansan, you are in trouble yourself, and you just want to be someone who supports you. You are obviously slandering others!"
"Oh, okay, I'm going to rant! Anyway, when it comes to the military court, I have my say and I have no obligation to hide it for others!"
"Without any evidence, will the court believe your lies? Stop dreaming!"
"Director Li, don't worry, if I'm safe, everyone is safe!"
In fact, Ma Hansan just said it casually, trying to scare Li Xicheng into dealing with stolen goods. Who can resist the temptation to make a fortune?
A few dozen meters ahead was a night market, bustling with people coming and going. The driver slowed down and kept honking the horn.
While passing a newsstand, while the agent in custody was distracted, Ma Hansan suddenly reached out to open the car door, kicked the agent out, and jumped out of the car.
"Shengzi, stop them!" Ma Hansan shouted and quickly got into the crowd.
Shengzi was an informant at Beiping Station and had been following Ma Hansan for several years. She usually ran this book and newspaper stall and secretly inquired about news on the street.
Although he didn't know the situation clearly, Shengzi obeyed Ma Hansan's words absolutely. He suddenly lifted the newsstand, and threw the books, newspapers, and wooden boards at the agent's head and face.
The agents subdued Shengzi in just ten seconds with three strikes, five divided by two. Even if they wasted these ten seconds, when they tried to find Ma Hansan again, they had already disappeared!
