Chapter 205: Magpie Work

Guo Dashan refused at first.

He knew what would happen if he revealed the secret. However, he had no choice.

Other people knew that he was Japanese.

This was a deal breaker.

He had been hit where it hurt.

If he didn't cooperate, all someone had to do was reveal his Japanese identity, and he would be dead without a burial.

Between suffering himself and suffering others, he chose the latter.

Moreover, there was a glimmer of hope for him. Perhaps the Nogata family really didn't know who had leaked the information.

Wouldn't that be fine?

'Don't worry. I won't betray you,' Zhang Yong said with a solemn oath.

'Thank you!' Guo Dashan felt a great weight lifted.

Since Liu Heizi had said that, that was all he could hope for.

As long as the Nogata family doesn't know that he was the one who leaked the information, he will be safe and sound.

'You can go now!'

'Yes...'

'Go back to your normal life.'

'Yes.'

Guo Dashan walked carefully.

There was only the silly Cui Zhihao left behind. What's going on? Why didn't he tell me to go when he left?

Hey, hey, hey, I want to go too! Unfortunately, I don't dare.

Other people's bullets don't discriminate!

'What exactly is your relationship with Fan Zhihai?'

'I, I...'

'Guo Dashan owes me money himself, so there's no way he'll help you pay it back. You decide what to do!'

'I, I...'

'Why did Fan Zhi Hai drag you into this?'

'I...'

Cui Zhihao suddenly felt that something was wrong.

Liu Heizi's words made a lot of sense! It was Fan Zhi Hai who had dragged him into this.

Since the other party had been unkind in the first place, why should he help him keep the secret? As long as he didn't reveal the secret of the mechanism, he wasn't betraying him. Fan Zhihai must be taught a lesson.

'Fan Zhihai said, you wanted to assassinate Madame Chiang? And he said you were the mastermind?'

'No. No. No.'

Cui Zhihao suddenly panicked. Damn it. Fan Zhihai even said that.

What an asshole!

This is top secret! Fan Zhihai actually leaked it?

And he said you were the mastermind?

Damn it!

This son of a bitch!

He actually betrayed the secret of the agency! He wants to die!

'He said you were the mastermind. He said you planned the whole thing from beginning to end. You ordered him to do it.'

'I didn't. I didn't. I'm innocent. I didn't...'

Cui Zhihao was pleading his innocence.

If this secret got out, the sky would really fall.

Damn Fan Zhihai!

He must disembowel himself to atone for his crime! He's seriously leaked the secret!

Fortunately, the people who knew this secret were from the underworld. It wasn't the Chinese intelligence agency.

Otherwise, otherwise, otherwise...

They are all on the rack right now.

'I don't care if you were the mastermind. In any case, you wanted to assassinate Madame Chiang. Right?'

'Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, misunderstanding...'

'We are all adults. Please think carefully before you speak.'

Zhang Yong began to fiddle with the dagger.

Cui Zhihao couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

The dagger was very sharp.

If it just sliced across, that would be fine.

The worst thing is to slowly cut, bit by bit. That would be tragic.

'It's not an assassination.'

'It's not an assassination!'

'It's persuasion!'

'It's persuasion!'

He hurriedly corrected him. He tried very hard. He was afraid that Zhang Yong would misunderstand.

However, Zhang Yong didn't react at all. It seemed that he didn't believe a word he said. In fact, Zhang Yong did not believe it.

What persuasion? Does it mean to persuade someone to surrender? Nonsense. Take me for an idiot.

He casually raised the dagger.

'We just want to make contact with her and convince her to accept the Empire of Japan.'

'How?'

'By meeting certain conditions, of course.'

'If she doesn't agree, you'll kill her. Right? That's not assassination, what is it?'

'No. No. The purpose of our work is not to kill people.'

'Do you think I'll believe that? And what work? Ridiculous. What kind of nonsense is this? Do you take me for a three-year-old?'

'No. It's true. The goal of the magpie's mission is to persuade the Song family.'

'There are several people in the Song family. How many of them can you persuade?'

'Just start with Madame Chiang!'

'Apart from spying on the airbase, who else have you arranged to meet?'

'All of them. All of them. All of them,'

Cui Zhihao said subconsciously. Then he felt something was wrong.

Oh no. It seems like I've revealed too much information.

These are all top secrets! If I leak them, I'll be a traitor.

'Pop!'

Suddenly, he received another slap.

However, it was Zhang Yong who had waved his hand to slap him. He used his palm, not a wooden board.

'Ugh...'

Cui Zhihao was badly beaten.

Why did he hit him again? Why?

I'm so aggrieved...

'You just said you couldn't find anyone to borrow money from. Now you're saying there are many other people. Your words don't make sense. Do you want to die?'

'No, no. No,'

Cui Zhihao finally came to his senses. It turned out that the other person had hit him for this reason.

Fortunately, he had not yet divulged any secrets. The other person seemed to have failed to understand the importance of this. All they knew was to ask for money. What idiots. It means that they are destined to be gangsters.

But...

The other person is really difficult to deal with! I'm afraid I can't get out of this without paying.

When he thought about the money, he immediately felt miserable.

'The others, me, I don't know who they are. We have no contact.'

'Now you say you have no contact? Do you want to die?'

Zhang Yong raised his hand.

Cui Zhihao hurriedly begged for mercy. At the same time, he covered his face with his hand.

'I really don't know. I really don't know. There are so many people working for us, and each line is not intersecting. Even Boss Guo only knows about the airport line. I don't know anything else.'

'Who is above Boss Guo? Bring him out. I really want to see it!'

'Yes, yes...'

Cui Zhihao suddenly held back.

ADVERTISEMENT

He was screwed. He didn't know who was above him.

He only knew that he was on one line. Guo Dashan was in charge.

He didn't know the situation on any other lines.

This was the norm for intelligence agencies.

The different lines must not intersect. Otherwise, if anything went wrong, they would all be wiped out.

As it was, even if something happened on the airport line, only they would be exposed.

The enemy would only be able to trace Guo Dashan.

'You don't know?'

'I...'

'I'll give you three days to figure it out yourself.'

'I...'

'Three days from now, bring me 100 taels of silver!'

'Huh?'

Cui Zhihao was stunned. He was shocked and angry.

Wasn't it 60 just now? How did it suddenly become 100?

Even if you raise the price, it can't be that fast...

'I gave you three days, don't you need to charge interest?' Zhang Yong's face was full of kindness.

'I, I, yes, yes...' Cui Zhihao didn't dare to argue back.

One hundred it is. If I argue, it might be two hundred.

I can't believe these bastards. There's nothing he can do. China is such a mess. Gangsters are everywhere.

If you get caught by these gangsters, you can only consider yourself unlucky.

No...

Fan Zhihai got me into this!

That bastard Fan Zhihai! Sooner or later I'll get him!

Right...

Where is Fan Zhihai?

Where is this bastard hiding?

"Where is Fan Zhihai?'

'I haven't found him. He must be hiding somewhere.'

'Ugh...'

Cui Zhihao felt so wronged once again.

Fan Zhihai, the main culprit, had hidden and got himself implicated. He almost died.

His hatred for Fan Zhihai was as deep as half the Pacific Ocean.

'Go back and figure it out yourself.'

'Three days later, 100 taels of silver. Not a penny less.'

Zhang Yong waved his hand. He sent Cui Zhihao away.

You're done for now. Get lost!

"Ah...'

Cui Zhihao wanted to cry but had no tears.

He could go. Of course, he was happy about that.

The problem was, thinking about the 100 silver dollars in three days, his head was spinning. He wanted to die.

In the end, he could only walk away in a daze.

'Go to Wutong Road!'

Zhang Yong waved his hand. Strike while the iron is hot, before there are more complications.

In fact, he had previously come to Wutong Road to scan. But he didn't find anything unusual. The map didn't give any clues.

Perhaps the Japanese invaders weren't there at the time. Judging from this, the Japanese spies probably didn't live there permanently.

Perhaps it was simply used as a warehouse.

Soon afterwards, the convoy entered Wutong Road.

Zhang Yong slowed down and looked carefully. He was looking for the so-called haunted house.

But he didn't find it for a while. But there was no hurry. Wutong Road ran north-south, and was only about 300 metres long. At most, they would go back and forth a few times.

Almost at the end, they finally found a house that was almost completely deserted.

They didn't know who the owner was. Why it had been abandoned.

Look across at the haunted house. Sure enough, there is a small red brick building. Three storeys. There is a lot of ivy growing outside.

Park the car. Right in front of the small building.

Get out of the car.

Notice that the gate has just been opened. Someone must have arrived not long ago.

Draw your gun. Wave your hand.

Wu Liuqi immediately takes the lead with his men.

The submachine guns follow behind. Everyone is on high alert. If anything goes wrong, open fire immediately.

In the end, there is nothing unusual.

They approached the small building. They found that the front door on the first floor was fitted with a combination lock.

At that time, combination locks were still very high-end. The average person couldn't afford one. They didn't expect to find one here. This is a bit of a problem. Technical lock picking is not an option.

The Fuxing Society's technical lock picking can only be used on ordinary mechanical locks. For combination locks, it is not very suitable.

What should they do? Go to Laohuqiao Prison and catch a master lock picker?

It's too late. Besides, it's not certain whether there is a master lock picker who can pick a combination lock. This thing is new.

The safe that was stolen from the treasury department before still used a mechanical lock. There was a key. It wasn't a complicated combination lock. If it was a combination lock, I guess the memo wouldn't have been lost.

Unless, of course, someone told someone else the combination.

What to do?

Zhang Yong tried hard to calm down.

He silently pondered the information displayed on the map. Looking for the weak points of the small building.

The system map is very powerful, and can display all the structures inside and outside the small building. Ponder the map, it's like studying from every angle, 360 degrees without dead ends.

First, look at the roof. It turns out that there is no door on the roof.

It may have been there originally. But it was completely sealed up later.

Frown.

Is there a big treasure inside? It's so mysterious.

Curiosity is greatly stimulated. I don't believe it. You can't get in such a big building!

Finally, a weak spot was found on the third floor. There is a window here. There is an anti-theft net. But the thickness of the steel bar is only as thick as a finger. It seems that just like Zhuo Yungui, there is a way to break it.

'You go up to the third floor and have a look,'

Zhang Yong instructed Wu Liuqi.

Wu Liuqi started climbing along the outer wall. He was quite fast.

Soon, he reached the third floor and found the window. Breaking down the obstacles, he saw the steel bars. There was hope after all.

Soon, a second person climbed up with a rope. Then a few more followed.

They twisted the two ropes together, tied them to the two steel bars, and started to twist the ropes. Gradually, they bent the steel bars.

'Boom!'

The steel bar snapped.

One down.

Repeat. Two more down. Then drill in.

Soon, Wu Liuji came down to the first floor and opened the door from the inside.

Zhang Yong, armed with a pistol in each hand, led the way in.

Here's our chance.

Someone hide first before we get the treasure.

The result...

I almost suffocated to death!
