The rainwater pooled into small streams on the car windows.
Tuk Tuk!
Someone knocked lightly on the car window.
Under a floral umbrella, Gu Linglong stood outside the car with a smile.
Xu Siqi reached out and opened the car door.
Gu Linglong put away her umbrella, sat down and said, "It's raining so hard. Fortunately, I brought my umbrella..."
Xu Siqi asked: "How did you know I was here?"
Gu Linglong smiled sweetly: "What do you think?"
"Did Jiang Bin tell you?"
"Um."
"What did he ask you to do?"
"He said, as long as you see me, you will understand."
"This Jiang Bin is so mysterious that he didn't tell me anything in advance..."
Xu Siqi knew very well that the reason why he asked Gu Linglong to come was to capture the "Iron Hammer", and his own logic was more reasonable.
From the perspective of the Secret Service, of course they don’t want Xu Siqi’s identity to be exposed.
Jiang Bin didn't conceal it on purpose. He also made a spur-of-the-moment decision and hurriedly called Gu Linglong to inform her.
Gu Linglong asked: "How long do we have to wait?"
"Maybe in the next second, maybe we have to wait two or three hours." Xu Siqi replied.
"Oh, just wait..."
"exquisite."
"Um?"
"There's something I've always wanted to ask you."
"What's up?"
"Eda Sugawara is dead, did you know?"
Gu Linglong said in surprise: "Eda Sugawara died? When did this happen?"
"Don't you know?" Xu Siqi stared into Gu Linglong's eyes.
Gu Linglong shook her head: "How could I know?"
Xu Siqi was silent for a while, sighed softly, and said: "Linglong, I always think that you are a good and honest girl. At least, you have never lied to me. However, in this matter, you seem to
You are hiding something, can you tell me why?"
Gu Linglong hesitated to speak, she didn't know where to start.
Xu Siqi said: "The day before Sugawara Eda was killed, someone saw her getting into a car..."
As long as he took the photo of Sugawara Eda and the photo of Gu Linglong or Gu Qingcheng, Xu Siqi could quickly find clues related to this with his case-handling ability.
At that time, Gu Qingcheng was recuperating at home and never left the house.
Therefore, the woman in the photo can only be Gu Linglong.
Gu Linglong hesitated for a while and whispered: "Siqi, I'm sorry."
Xu Siqi shook his head: "Linglong, you really impress me..."
Gu Linglong said quickly: "You misunderstood, I didn't kill her."
"Then, how did Eda Sugawara die?"
"I have no idea."
"have no idea?"
"She made Qingcheng look like that. I really wanted to kill her..."
Until now, Gu Linglong has not concealed anything and told the story exactly.
Xu Siqi thought for a long time and said slowly: "That means there is someone else who killed Sugawara Edae."
Gu Linglong nodded repeatedly.
Xu Siqi suddenly smiled: "Could it be Chen Huaibu who did it?"
Gu Linglong was stunned for a moment, and then said: "How is it possible? Brother Chen and Sugawara Eda have no enmity, why should they kill her? There is no reason. Moreover, I heard Yu Rong said that her brother did not even dare to kill a chicken
…”
Xu Siqi agreed: "Yes, if you don't even dare to kill a chicken, how can you kill someone?"
"Then who do you think killed Sugawara Eda?"
"Wusongkou is located in a remote area, and there is a high possibility of robbery and murder. I heard that the security there is very poor, and vicious cases often occur."
Gu Linglong was unhappy.
In any case, Sugawarae's death was somehow related to her. Even though the person who died was a Japanese spy, she still felt very uneasy.
Xu Siqi said: "As an agent, I will encounter this kind of thing again in the future. This time, just treat it as an appetizer. The big meal is yet to come."
"I am a civilian employee..."
"Civilians of the Secret Service are also agents."
"Oh, I really regret it now. If I had known this was the case, I might as well have gone to the military headquarters."
"There is no regret medicine in the world. Life is like this. Whether you are right or wrong, it is your own choice... Oh, by the way, now that the danger has been removed, you can go home."
"If Eda Sugawara is dead, they will send someone else."
"Probably not. In the eyes of the Japanese, Sugawara Eda's death was caused by someone sent by the government. They will not act rashly in a short period of time. Moreover, the Sino-British aid plan has been successfully signed. From the perspective of motivation,
There is no need for the Japanese to take risks like this again..."
Raindrops pounded rapidly on the car window.
The rainwater flowing along the car window blurred the view inside and outside the car.
Gu Linglong was silent for a moment, then suddenly hugged Xu Siqi without any warning, and murmured in English: "I may be possessed by a demon, and the things I do are contrary to common sense. If the demon is always in my heart, which leads to evil thoughts and evil deeds,
I hope the merciful God can forgive me and save me..."
Caught off guard, Xu Siqi was at a loss and didn't know how to respond.
Ring ring ring!
The phone in the public phone booth rang at the right time, temporarily easing the embarrassing situation.
Xu Siqi gently pushed Gu Linglong away, opened the door and got out of the car, quickly walked into the phone booth, reached out and picked up the phone: "Hello?"
"Inspector Xu?" Jiang Bin's voice was on the other end of the phone.
"Yes, it's me."
"No need to wait."
"Have you caught anyone?"
"No."
"Ning Zhicheng didn't go to contact the upline?"
"He didn't go anywhere, he went home directly."
"How is this going?"
“The Communist Party has many tricks and tricks, and I don’t know what tricks it is up to.”
"Could it be that the information is wrong?"
"I will launch an investigation after I get back. Let's do this for now. Thank you for your hard work, Inspector Xu. Goodbye."
"goodbye."
Even on the phone, Jiang Bin did not dare to call him "Major Xu".
All calls need to be manually transferred. If the operator listens to the call, Xu Siqi's identity as a Kuomintang agent will be completely revealed.
It doesn't matter if the conversation between the two is leaked now.
The national government and the British concession authorities regularly conducted joint operations to hunt down Communist Party members hiding in the concessions.
Back in the car, Xu Siqi started the car and drove away in the heavy rain.
Gu Linglong remained silent.
After a while, he asked: "Where are we going?"
"Go to Gu Mansion." Xu Siqi replied.
"The mission is over?"
"Yes, it's over."
"Siqi..."
"What?"
"I just lost my temper. I'm sorry."
Xu Siqi smiled: "I have also had times when I couldn't control my emotions. Whether it's loss or sadness, these are not important. What's important is how to face it."
Gu Linglong looked surprised.
Xu Siqi drove the car, was silent for a long time, and said: "When my father passed away, it was like the sky fell to me. I am not afraid of your jokes. I cried many times under the quilt when no one was around. It was like
Say, since you were a child, you have always regarded as a role model, a source of strength, someone stronger than yourself, and suddenly he is gone. The heartbreaking feeling is indescribable..."
