Chapter 116: Escape

From a professional perspective, Zhang Yong's words were full of mistakes.

They didn't make sense. They contradicted each other. If you analysed them carefully, you could find a whole host of problems.

In fact, Zhang Yong himself hadn't thought it through.

This was the first time he'd done anything like kidnapping. He was completely new to the business.

He had no experience.

There was a huge disconnect between theory and practice.

After the person is kidnapped, what exactly should be done with them? The ideas that popped into his head on the spot also conflicted seriously with his previous plans.

To put it bluntly, he himself had not made up his mind.

Several ideas flashed through his mind.

He could not tell which one was the best.

There were pros and cons to all of them.

Even releasing Wu Yuanfu had its advantages.

After Wu Yuanfu returned, he would definitely cause Lin Xiaoyan and He Shengyilong trouble.

It could lead to Lin Xiaoyan's downfall.

This is also a very good effect.

Lin Xiaoyan is a female spy, so if they can't get her, they'll let the Japanese get her.

If she panics, has nowhere to turn, and comes to rely on them, then she can laugh in her sleep.

She is very valuable.

She must know a lot of secrets.

Is that possible?

Of course it is. Is there a 1% chance that it's not possible?

Besides, it's definitely more than 1%...

'Zhuoyun Gui.'

'Coming!'

'Go get the money.'

Zhang Yong called the tool people over.

These two guys really are tools. So far, they've been quite useful.

Although they haven't done many bad things, they know how to apply what they've learned to similar situations. They have a promising future. For something like getting money, they definitely have to go.

Sihai Money Bank is secret. Zhang Yong himself doesn't know the entrance. He's also afraid to go alone.

If he gets cheated, he'll be finished.

This kind of thing is definitely not rare. For someone like him, carrying a hundred thousand silver notes is enough to die a hundred times.

With his level of fighting alone, he can only bully Ye Wansheng.

He might not even be able to beat Gu Bafeng.

That Gu Bafeng is like a savage. There is definitely no hope for a one-on-one fight.

Better safe than sorry.

Kidnapping Wu Yuanfu is already very risky. You definitely can't end up with nothing and even risk your life.

Even if Zhuo Yungui runs away with the silver notes, it's better than being killed.

Of course, Zhuo Yungui can't go alone.

Huang Shang also has to go.

It's just right for each person to take one.

Zhuo Yungui takes 50,000. Huang Shang takes 100,000.

Huang Shang has a daughter with a name, which is easy to handle. The level of trust is slightly higher.

Tell them both the secret word and the secret key.

The two of them quickly go far away.

On the boat, Zhang Yong and Wu Yuanfu were left alone.

Zhang Yong was of course very careful. Wu Yuanfu was tied up tightly. He couldn't loosen a single knot.

'Give me a quick death!'

'Just a moment.'

'What do you mean by dawdling?'

'What if you're lying to me and I don't get the money? Let me get the money first.'

'You bastard!'

'You're a Japanese, you're in no position to curse me.'

'Baka!'

Wu Yuanfu swore again.

Zhang Yong was unmoved.

He knew that the person the other person hated most was actually not him.

Really.

In fact, it was.

What Wu Yuanfu hated most was Kamagawa Kagami. And the Tan-in organ.

There was a culprit.

They were the ones who had caused his exposure.

This Zhang Yong, although greedy for money, was also operating normally. The same would have happened with anyone else.

Wu Yuanfu swore secretly that if he were still alive, he would definitely make Kamikawa Kagami look bad. He would also make the Tan organ look bad. He would not rest until he had avenged himself.

'What's your name?'

'Why should I tell you?'

'It's quite boring for us to just sit here. Don't you want to talk?'

'Sakata Kazuo.'

'Who is Sakata Shintetsu to you?'

'Who?'

'Sakata Shintetsu. He might be a lieutenant colonel or a major now.'

'I don't know what nonsense you're talking about. I don't know him.'

'What about Yamamoto Kazuo?'

'I don't know.'

'Yamamoto Kazuki?'

'I don't know!'

'Yamamoto Itsuzo...'

Zhang Yong talked nonsense.

Wu Yuanfu (Sakata Kazuo) ignored him.

He quietly worked on the rope knot.

While talking to Zhang Yong, he was carefully trying to find a way to escape.

Just as Zhang Yong was talking, something behind him seemed to be able to wear away the rope knot.

Zhang Yong didn't notice.

He's not a god.

He never would have thought that the other person would have such a trick up their sleeve.

He felt that Wu Yuanfu was dead meat.

He was even a little smug. He felt that his verbal skills were good.

You see, what he just said was a mixture of truth and fiction, and Wu Yuanfu had no doubts at all. Because nine tenths of what he said was true, and one tenth was false, it was highly credible.

For example, Lin Xiaoyan did say that Meng Chaowei was not the richest. There were other Japanese spies who were richer than him.

However, Lin Xiaoyan did not mention the words 'in Jinling'. He deliberately added them. As a result, Wu Yuanfu was convinced. He was convinced that it was Uekawa Kagami who had betrayed him.

Furthermore, He Sheng Yiliao mentioned three old Japanese soldiers. However, he did not mention the words 'knowing one of them'. He also added these words at the last minute. Wu Yuanfu did not doubt it either.

In the end, the blame fell on the Dan organ.

Thirty minutes...

An hour...

Time passed gradually.

Wu Yuanfu quietly sharpened the rope, which was actually quite effective.

Zhang Yong was completely unaware of it.

His thoughts began to turn to Zhuo Yungui and Huang Shang. He considered all kinds of possibilities.

What if these two guys escape with the money?

What if these two guys go and inform on us?

In the end, he concluded that he had been too hasty in handling this matter. He had been a bit rash. There are a lot of hidden dangers. It's easy to get caught.

But with only 20 hours left, he had no other choice.

He could only take a risk and act recklessly.

He repeatedly reminded himself that he must be careful next time...

Next time, he mustn't be so reckless...

Suddenly, he realised that something was wrong.

'Clang...'

'Clang...'

A junk nearby was heading straight towards him.

It wasn't going fast. But it was heading straight for him.

Oh no!

There's a problem with the boat opposite.

Zhang Yong's first thought is that someone is coming to rescue Wu Yuanfu.

Damn it.

The Japanese spy has helpers?

And they found this place?

It's over.

I'm all alone!

If I'm surrounded by enemies, I'll be dead in no time.

He quickly draws his gun.

He wants to shoot. But in the end, he holds back.

It seems that he hasn't seen the target yet. It's useless to shoot without seeing the enemy.

If I shoot, it will alert the others.

And then there's no way I can explain the flawed kidnapping plan I've concocted.

I'll just have to become a bandit...

'Boom...'

'Clatter...'

'Boom...'

The two boats collided hard.

Technically, neither boat was moving fast. It didn't seem like the other boat had intended to crash into it either. Maybe it was just a simple accident?

However, both boats were huge. The impact was severe.

The ship's sides and so on were simply crushed.

As the boat that had been hit passively, Zhang Yong's boat was of course the one that suffered the most.

It swayed...

It broke...

It tilted...

Zhang Yong fell. Fortunately, he caught hold of a piece of wood. It was lucky. Barely able to hold himself in place.

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Wu Yuanfu tumbling unceremoniously, and falling straight into the water.

Zhang Yong: ...

Okay. This guy is dead.

The one who was tied up was strong, and then fell into the water and survived?

However, he did not notice that the violent impact had just stretched the worn rope on Wu Yuanfu's wrist. At the moment of falling into the water, the rope was released.

'Plop!'

Wu Yuanfu fell deep into the water.

After a struggle, the rope came off. He regained his freedom. Hurriedly escaping for his life.

What? Seek revenge on Zhang Yong?

Of course not. Zhang Yong was a minor character. He didn't even care about him.

He wanted to find Kamagawa Kagami!

And the Tan-in Karakuri!

They were the ones responsible!

They betrayed themselves!

I will not rest until I have avenged myself!
