Zhang Badou, whose body was covered with snow, slowly woke up.
I feel like I have a splitting headache.
He was hit with a brick on the head and almost died on the spot.
Soon, Zhang Badou discovered that his current situation was even worse.
His hands and feet were tied up with hemp ropes, and he was lying on his back on the wet and cold beach.
He struggled, trying to break the hemp rope.
The sound of footsteps came from the direction of the embankment.
Zhang Badou turned his face and looked.
Xu Siqi walked over with a smile on his face.
He had just checked that there was a pawn ticket from Yan'an Pawnshop hidden inside the bald pen holder.
Apart from that, there is nothing else.
"you're awake?"
"Detective Xu, what do you mean?"
"It's not interesting, I just want to change a place to chat with you."
“…”
"Don't worry, it's quiet here and no one will disturb you."
"This is where?"
"Wusongkou."
Zhang Badou's eyes widened in surprise.
Xu Siqi sighed and said: "It was snowy and the road was slippery. I was too tired to drive, and the road was still far. I drove for four and a half hours. When I got to Jinjia Village, the car got stuck in a pit and almost
I couldn't get out. Fortunately, two villagers passed by and helped push the car out. I thought to myself at that time, if you wake up by chance and make some noise in the trunk, it will be really troublesome."
Zhang Badou was silent for a while and said in a harsh voice: "I agreed to all the conditions you proposed, and on the other hand, you do this again. Inspector Xu, isn't this too unjust?"
Xu Siqi smiled: "The main thing is that you didn't tell me the truth. After all, we can be considered a cooperative relationship. We don't even have basic trust. How can I be honest? I went to withdraw money with an unknown person. What if?
What if it’s a trap against me?”
"I swear……"
"Okay, don't swear. It's such a cold weather. Let's keep the story short. Let's talk about your true identity in this whole thing."
"My true identity?"
"You said before that Matthew pays and you contribute, and you have an employment relationship, right? If it's just an employment relationship, how can he safely let you participate in such a big thing?"
"Li Yuanwu and I are colleagues. The main reason why I was asked to follow him was to call the door."
"Who do you think they are, Matthew?"
"I……"
"I remind you, don't lie. I can get Matthew's photo, and I have checked his identity and background clearly."
"He, they should be spies..."
"That's right. Those Su Lian people are all spies."
Xu Siqi lit a cigarette and turned his eyes towards the embankment to observe for a while.
The world of snow is covered with snow, and the surrounding fields are completely white.
If someone comes over, they can see it from a long distance away.
He took a deep breath from the cigarette and said: "Under normal circumstances, in order to keep the secret, they should kill you as well. But they didn't do that. Could it be that they couldn't bear to do it? It's obviously impossible. A family of eight
If I kill you, you will not be spared. The only reasonable explanation is that you are also a spy working for the Su Lian people!"
Without waiting for Zhang Badou to open his mouth to defend himself.
Xu Siqi continued: "You know the importance of that thing very clearly. Otherwise, you wouldn't take the risk to go to Haitangli."
The sound of the tide is getting closer and closer.
In less than half an hour, Zhang Badou's location will be submerged in the sea water.
Xu Siqi said: "You don't have much time."
Zhang Badou looked nervous, swallowed involuntarily, and said: "Inspector Xu, please let me go, I really don't know anything."
Xu Siqi said calmly: "If you don't want to say it, then just wait to be drowned."
The stalemate lasted for a full minute.
Zhang Badou couldn't hold himself any longer and said in frustration: "I admit that I am Su Lian's spy."
"So, Li Yuanwu is also Su Lian's spy?"
"Yes. He too."
"What exactly is that thing?"
"It's a message between the Far East Bureau of the Third International and Mosco."
"This Far East Bureau is in Shanghai?"
"yes."
"where?"
"My level is not high enough. I don't know much about the situation involving the upper echelons of the organization. Oh, Matthew must know."
"Matthew is also from the Far East Bureau?"
"As far as I know, he is mainly responsible for operational tasks."
"Tell me about the contents of the file."
"The Far East Bureau recommends that the leadership of the Hong Army be replaced and that necessary means and measures be taken against some personnel who disobey Comrade Li De's command..."
The more Xu Siqi listened, the more frightened he became. No wonder Su Lian tried his best to retrieve the documents.
Once the matter is exposed, it will inevitably have a negative impact internationally.
Of course, it remains to be seen whether Mosko agrees with the suggestions put forward by the Far East Bureau.
Even so, outsiders can't laugh at it.
Of course, fewer people know about this nasty thing of fighting in a den.
Xu Siqi pondered for a moment and asked, "How could such an important document fall into Li Yuanwu's hands?"
Zhang Badou said: "Li Yuanwu stole it. Oh, Matthew trusts him very much, so he was probably careless..."
"How did you know the contents of the file?"
"Li Yuanwu told me."
"He told you?"
"The two of us have a good personal relationship."
"What did he tell you?"
"He said that this document is very valuable and asked me to find a buyer quickly and sell it as soon as possible."
"He trusts you."
"yes."
"It's a pity that he trusted the wrong person."
"There was nothing I could do. I couldn't help him in that situation."
"Even so, Li Yuanwu didn't betray you."
“…”
"Who is the buyer?"
"MI6."
"British?"
"Yes."
"What's his name?"
"Angeli."
"How much did it sell for?"
"...twenty thousand yuan."
"The total is 20,000, and 10,000 for me is indeed a lot. Thank you for your generosity. One more question, how many of the eight members of the Li family have you killed?"
"I do not……"
"You said you didn't kill anyone. It doesn't make sense logically. In addition, I have seen the pinch marks on the necks of those two children. They seem to be different from others. The size of the hand mold is more like that of Asians."
"I, I killed two..."
"Those two children?"
"yes."
Zhang Badou felt the cold sea water.
The tide had already surged up to his body, and his clothes and pants were all wet.
He said with a grimace: "Detective Xu, I've explained everything, just let me go?"
Xu Siqi asked: "How do you contact the British?"
Zhang Badou shut up.
He knew very well that this was his only life-saving straw.
Xu Siqi stood up, looked at the surging tide, and walked towards the embankment.
Zhang Badou was in a panic now.
He shouted at the top of his lungs: "Detective Xu, you can't do this. I've said everything and told you everything. You can't do this!"
"From the beginning, I never planned to let you live. This way of death will be easier for you..."
"You don't want the money anymore?"
"You can keep the flowers."
Xu Siqi didn't look back and strode back to the embankment.
The sky gradually darkened.
The seawater quickly submerged Zhang Badou's body.
Ten minutes later, Xu Siqi walked towards the car, estimating that Zhang Badou had no chance of survival.
"Watch where you run!"
Joyous shouts came from the distance.
Xu Siqi raised his eyes and saw a young man wearing a jacket with his bow and arrow pointed at a hare jumping on the snow.
"Where did this come from?"
In Xu Siqi's hand, he held the documents found from Zhang Badou.
