Chapter 66, Assassination


    “Beauty pageant?”


    “Look forward to it! I’ll take you to see it later.”


    "good!"


    “There are so many oirans in Shanghai’s ten-mile foreign market, I guarantee you a feast for your eyes…”


    "good!"


    Zhang Yong yearned for it very much.


    Beauty pageants in this era should be free of technology and ruthless work.


    They should all be original. There is no obvious processing or modification. Let’s take a look at how beautiful the beauties of this era are.


    pity…


    The phone call came before I finished my meal.


    It''s Li Boqi calling. He knew that Zhang Yong was eating at Kang Le Western Restaurant.


    Zhang Yong hurriedly came to answer the phone.


    “Team leader…”


    “Are you full?”


    "almost…"


    “Come back. Something happened.”


    "What''s up?"


    “Let’s talk about it when you get back.”


    "yes!"


    Zhang Yong agreed.


    Hang up the phone. Explain the situation to Zhu Yuan.


    ?This kind of thing is quite common. They all eat public food. There are too many emergencies.


    “What a shame…”


    “Tell me the results of the beauty pageant next time.”


    “Read the newspaper yourself.”


    "OK!"


    Zhang Yong said goodbye and left.


    Going out, I saw Liu Xi. She was waiting for him nearby.


    Confuse.


    What''s the matter?


    Why didn’t you say it just now?


    Leave in a hurry. What happened in the middle?


    Go over.


    “Tomorrow morning, are you free?”


    "uncertain."


    "My goods have arrived at Tianzi Wharf and must be picked up tomorrow. I''m waiting for the next one."


    “Beauty, you are like a bully and you are forcing your bow!”


    “Just say whether you want to do it or not.”


    “Do it. But I want 20%. Cash it on the spot.”


    Zhang Yong responded.


    Western medicine, he definitely wants it.


    Whether it is for self-defense or to pass on to the Red Party, it is needed.


    No matter how much it is.


    Price is not an issue.


    Continuously catching spies and amassing money can form an effective closed loop.


    No matter how much money is looted, it will eventually be converted into physical objects. Weapons and medicines are the two most important things. One kills the enemy. A life saver. Indispensable.


    “You might as well go and grab it!”


    "Then go find someone else. I don''t know what to do."


    “Okay, I’ll give you 20%!”


    “Purchase more next time! Two boxes are too few!”


    “I get the goods from Bayer in Germany. Coming here from Europe requires a lot of procedures. I don’t have that much money.”


    “How much does a box cost?”


    “Five hundred dollars.”


    “I’ll give you ten thousand dollars sometime. You bring twenty boxes over.”


    “Then you have to hurry up. It takes three months on the road. It also takes time to make an appointment to pick up the goods.”


    “You seem to know a lot about this business?”


    “No. I have just entered the industry. So, you are the original stock. If we become developed in the future, you will also be a contributor.”


    “Profiteer!”


    “You must make time to go to the dock tomorrow. I will wait for your call at the hospital.”


    "good!"


    Zhang Yong nodded. Agree.


    Liu Xi turned around and left. Niao Na''s figure disappeared into the darkness.


    Will she be a female spy?


    Suddenly it doesn’t feel like it anymore.


    ??If she were a spy, it would seem a bit naive to use such methods to drag herself into trouble.


    As we all know, this kind of thing is an open secret within the Fruit Party. No one cares.


    You have the right to use it and it will become invalid upon expiration.


    ?Even Boss Dai himself is desperately using his power to enrich himself, right?


    ??As the squad leader of the Lixing Society''s Secret Service, what''s wrong with using my authority to get some Western medicine? If I don’t do it, others will too. If I don’t do this, I will do that. What''s wrong with making some private money... The Kong family also sells tobacco! Or high-purity foreign soil imported from India...


    So, this kind of thing is not something to worry about.


    On the contrary, it would be intriguing if she was not a female spy.


    What does she need so many banned substances for? Is it just to make money by stealing? Or is it for some organization that cannot openly obtain medicines?


    Haha, interesting...


    Hurrying back to the office with the troops.


    ??Li Boqi is not in the office. Just ask. Only then did I realize that I had gone to the Songhu Security Headquarters. So he turned around and came to the security headquarters.


    The garrison headquarters is in Longhua. Very big. Security is tight.


    At least one regiment of soldiers is stationed. There are many sentries.


    ??Although he held a certificate from the Lixingshe Secret Service, he was repeatedly interrogated. Weapons were also seized.


    ?At this moment, the Lixingshe Secret Service''s name is not easy to use in front of the garrison headquarters.


    ?Those military bosses are not afraid of practicing socialism for the time being.


    This is also the reason why Boss Dai is very depressed. He has not been able to make most military leaders fear him. Even some police chiefs are not afraid of him.


    ??For example, the Jinling Police Department treats Boss Dai in an overt and covert manner. The police chief’s name is Li Shizhen. Boss Dai’s accounts are also not sold.


    In the final analysis, Lixingshe is still not strong enough.


    ?Three years later, the power of the military command has expanded rapidly, and there are not many military leaders who dare not disobey the military command.


    ??This kind of garrison headquarters allows military commanders to come and go at will. Anyone who dares to intercept will be slapped in the face. Whoever stops you will be unlucky. If anyone is ignorant and wants to obstruct the military command, if he is shot to death, his death will be in vain.


    Sure enough, I found Li Boqi here. He came first with Cao Mengqi.


    Cao Mengqi stopped Zhang Yong.


    “What happened?” Zhang Yong asked curiously.


    "Deputy Commander Yang was assassinated." Cao Mengqi replied, "He is not dead. But his injuries are serious."


    “Which hospital were you sent to?”


    “Tzu Chi Hospital.”


    “Who is responsible for protection?”


    "Guard Headquarters. Commander Qian made arrangements personally."


    "oh."


    Zhang Yong nodded thoughtfully.


    Deputy Commander Yang was assassinated. The situation is not small! No wonder Li Boqi would call him back immediately.


    Did the Japanese do it?


    ?Zhang Yong doesn’t think it’s the same. There seems to be no need for the Japanese to engage in assassination.


    ?Deputy Commander Yang is the target of their strategy. What good would it do to assassinate him? Unless the commander of the 59th Army is replaced. Replace with the person the Japanese invaders want.


    Did the Red Party do it?


    Definitely not.


    ??The Red Party does not engage in assassination or kidnapping. Duke Zhou forbade the underground party from engaging in dirty tricks. Violence is only directed at traitors within the party. Deputy Commander Yang is not a Red Party traitor.


    Did a gang do it?


    ?Political opponents did it?


    Hard to say. Li Boqi probably can''t judge either.


    ?Sure enough, not long after, Zhang Yong and Cao Mengqi met Li Boqi together. Li Boqi had a gloomy face and cold eyes.


    ?It was already late at night, and he was hurriedly summoned. At the same time, the people at the security headquarters had a bad attitude, which made him very unhappy. Boss Dai’s name is really not easy to use here. The garrison headquarters treats them completely as tool men. Solve the case within a time limit. Directly shouting and drinking. It''s strange that Li Boqi is happy.


    “Team leader…”


    “Have you found any Japanese hiding in the garrison headquarters?”


    "No."


    “Move around more.”


    "yes."


    Zhang Yong led his men and patrolled back and forth inside the garrison headquarters.


    As long as there was a place to go, I went there. No trace of the Japanese was found within a radius of 150 meters. However, this does not rule out the suspicion that the Japanese committed the crime.


    Perhaps it was not the Japanese who took action.


    ?Perhaps the murderer was bribed by the Japanese invaders.


    Finally, we came to the north side of the Security Headquarters. There is still a vast area here.


    “I’m sorry. Please come back!”


    “That’s over there…”


    "This is the prison cell. You have no authority to come in here."


    "oh…"


    Zhang Yong and others were stopped.


    Those who stopped them were military policemen belonging to the garrison headquarters.


    The team was led by a military police major. Belongs to the independent military police system. The first commander of the Kuomintang military police was named Gu Zhenglun.


    “Crack!”


    “Crack!”


    Suddenly, there was gunshots coming from inside.


    Zhang Yong’s eyes darkened.


    What''s going on?


    “It’s none of your business. We are shooting the Red Party members.”


    "What?"


    Zhang Yong frowned secretly.


    Shoot the Red Party members?
