Chapter 144: The Madame's Assignment

Is Li Liangcai from the Tan Agency?

Zhang Yong judged that he was not. The Tan Agency would not place two people in the same location.

It was very dangerous to put eggs in the same basket. Especially for a heavyweight spy like Wu Yuanfu, he must be protected closely.

There should be no possibility of exposure around Wu Yuanfu.

Unless, of course, Li Liangcai and Wu Yuanfu are not from the same system. They were accidentally placed together.

There is the Tong Agency, the Tan Agency, the Lan Agency...

The Mei Agency, the Zhu Agency, the Ju Agency...

And there is also the Special High Commission.

With so many spy organisations, it's no surprise that there are ghosts fighting among themselves. Not to mention accidentally placing people?

That's not the point.

The point is...

What is Li Liangcai doing here?

Is he observing the movements of other Japanese spies? Or is he trying to rescue Wei Tuo?

'Zhang Yong!'

'The Chief wants to speak to you on the phone!'

'Zhang Yong!'

Dai Yice suddenly rushed over. But it was the Chief himself who was calling.

Zhang Yong hurriedly answered the phone.

'Chief!'

'What are you doing?'

'Reporting to you, Chief. I'm with Team Leader Dai, arresting Wei Tuo.'

'Nonsense! You need to be personally involved in such a trivial matter?'

'I...'

'Come back! I have a task for you!'

'Yes!'

Zhang Yong hurriedly agreed.

Dai Yice did not dare to be negligent and immediately arranged for someone to take him back.

Just now, Zhang Yong almost had an accident. He did not want a second one to happen. Especially not when the Director himself called.

Zhang Yong hurried back to the headquarters on Goose Lane. He found that Secretary Mao was not there.

So he came directly to see the Director.

'Report!'

'Come in!'

Zhang Yong pushed the door open.

The Director was not sitting. Instead, he was standing by the window.

Strange.

It was said that the Director did not have such a hobby.

Standing by the window makes him vulnerable to attack. A professional like the Director would never make such a mistake.

Even his desk is arranged in the corner. It is absolutely invisible from outside the window. Better safe than sorry. What if an enemy shoots from a distance? You can't be too careful.

Since the Director is alone in the snow-capped mountains, Zhang Yong takes the opportunity to study the three-dimensional map of Jiezi Lane.

Although the map did not have any text, the overall structure was very clear. All the structures of the houses within a 150-metre radius were shown.

This is the archive room...

This is the firearms room...

Zhang Yong carefully compared it bit by bit.

There was no text. It took longer to compare. But it must be firmly remembered.

Maybe it will come in handy in the future?

If you want to escape from Jige Lane, you have to rely on this map...

Finally, the director turned back.

'Report!'

'What kind of trouble have you got yourself into at the Army General Hospital?'

'I haven't!'

Zhang Yong denied vehemently.

There was no trouble. It was consensual.

The Japanese spy was trying to protect herself and seduce me, a proud Chinese man. I played along...

sugar-coated bullets. Ate the sugar coating. Threw the bullets back.

'You'll die sooner or later at the hands of a woman,' the commander said angrily.

It wasn't a serious criticism.

Zhang Yong had fatal weaknesses. That was a good thing.

Greed and lust were human emotions. People like that were easy to control.

If Zhang Yong didn't have any flaws, he would have suspected that the guy was an undercover agent sent by the Red Party.

Now, you can rest assured.

The Red Party would never want such a lazy guy.

'Yes. I was wrong.'

Zhang Yong bowed his head knowingly. Admit your fault obediently.

When the boss scolds you, whether you are right or wrong, you must admit your fault. Generally speaking, if you admit your fault, you will be fine.

I have admitted my fault. What else do you want?

What? Still holding on to the little pigtail?

Then I'll just have to pull out my gun and finish you off. And then get a new boss.

'You!'

The department head shook his head.

It is easy to change the country but difficult to change one's nature. This guy is hopeless.

It's just that this guy's abilities are outstanding and indispensable. Otherwise, he would definitely have been put in solitary confinement for half a month.

Is he lustful as hell? I'll make sure you can't even smell a woman for half a month.

See how lustful you can still be.

'Go to the empty funding department.'

'Huh?'

'Didn't you hear me? Go to the empty funding department.'

'Chief, the military police command is meddling with the memo. They don't seem to like it when we get involved.'

'Madam is angry. She sent the military police away. She even scolded me.'

'That doesn't make sense! Why did she scold you?'

'She said I was being selfish, that I was reluctant to let her use my talents. I'm only too happy to work for the Kong family.'

'Huh?'

Zhang Yong was stunned.

What did Madam mean?

It seemed that she understood...

but also that she didn't quite understand...

'You're the one I'm talking about!' the Director said angrily. "Your wife knows about the metal master you recovered for the Kong family.'

'The Kong family is in trouble," Zhang Yong said subconsciously. 'The Director must be angry.'

'You're thinking too much. Your wife didn't tell the Director.'

'Huh...'

Zhang Yong deeply appreciated what it meant to report only the good news.

Sure enough, everyone around the Director was talented. Everyone only told the Director what he liked to hear.

The Kong family is in charge of issuing currency, and with so many problems, of course they won't tell the Prime Minister. No one else dares either. Even Madam won't. Because the Air Reserve Department, which Madam leads, also lost the memo.

The pot calling the kettle black. Such a thing certainly cannot happen. Otherwise, it will only be a lose-lose situation.

By the way, it seems that the Director is quite happy to be scolded?

That's right. Being scolded by Madam is also something to be happy about. It shows that she remembers you.

If she can't even remember your name, she doesn't even have the chance to scold you.

'Madam has specifically instructed that you be in charge.'

'Yes.'

'She's only given you seven days.'

'Huh?'

'If you can find the memo within seven days, there's a reward of 5,000 US dollars.'

'Yes.'

Zhang Yong suddenly perked up.

Madam has finally come to her senses! She's willing to use US dollars as a reward.

If only you'd said so earlier.

If you'd said so earlier, I might have already found the memo.

My priority in catching spies has always been based on the amount of reward. The more lucrative the reward, the faster I catch them.

What was it that the saying goes? If the money is right, the world is yours.

'Hurry up!'

'Yes!'

Zhang Yong salutes. He turns and leaves.

The director shakes his head. He really doesn't know what to say about Zhang Yong's personality.

What a strange talent!

Sit down.

Ring the bell.

A secretary enters quietly and waits for instructions.

'What is Team Leader Chun Yu doing?'

'Reporting. They have returned to Yan Jiang Road. They have not returned to the headquarters on Ji'e Lane.'

'Did you catch the gecko?'

'No. They had a gunfight with the gecko. But they did not see the other party's face clearly. Then, the target mysteriously disappeared. It was never found again.'

'I see. Go. Continue surveillance.'

'Yes.'

The secretary turns and leaves.

The department head frowns.

This Chun Yu Chi is really getting out of hand.

No report before the operation. No report after the operation. Failed to catch the Red Party and acted as if nothing had happened.

Does he really think he is an independent brigade?

Are you still a member of the Fuxing Society?

We have to find a way to get rid of him. And replace the team leader.

Who?

Zhang Yong?

Suddenly, this name jumped out.

The department head himself was also taken aback. Why did he think of this lazy guy?

Now that he is a team leader, he is causing all sorts of trouble. He even dared to molest a woman in broad daylight. If he is promoted to group leader, he will cause even more harm to innocent women!

No.

No.

But then again, apart from him, who else can take the food from Zheng Jiemin's mouth?

If someone else is chosen, Zheng Jiemin will definitely not agree.

The abilities of the others are also not enough to overwhelm Chun Yu Chi. Only Zhang Yong can do it.

If Zhang Yong takes over, I don't think anyone else will have a problem with it.

Even Madam appreciates him.

If Zhang Yong successfully retrieves the memo this time, he will definitely be on Madam's good side.

We can use him to suppress the Guangdong faction and get rid of Chun Yu Chi.

Yes!

That's it.

Once Zhang Yong retrieves the memo, we'll make the arrangements.

With Madam's support, how dare Zheng Jiemin say no?

As for women...

In the face of power, what are women?

I'm in a great mood.

'Achoo!'

'Achoo!'

But Zhang Yong on the road had a miserable time.

He sneezed several times in a row. He almost lost control of the steering wheel.

Eventually, he applied the brakes sharply.

Suddenly, everything brightened up. He had made a major discovery.
