Chapter 289: What are you afraid of?

Wave your hand.

Wu Liuqi immediately came over quickly.

'Get ready to arrest someone.'

'Who?'

'You guys ambush along the streets to the northwest.'

'Okay!'

Wu Liuqi immediately went.

The nightingale frowned slightly. I don't know what the hell is going on.

What the hell is this psychopath grabbing people for?

No one else is coming to pick her up! The person who was supposed to pick her up has already been arrested.

Suspicious.

Playing games.

She felt that Zhang Yong was deliberately putting on a show for her. Showing off his brilliance and valour.

Really. Childish. Only a child would play this kind of trick.

However, gradually, she sensed that something was wrong. It seemed that the Fuxing Society really was arresting someone.

Almost everyone was on high alert. The expressions and actions of everyone definitely did not look like they were putting on a show. The bullets are all loaded.

Oh no...

Is someone really coming this way?

Who on earth could it be?

She really didn't notify anyone else of her arrival.

At this moment, in the vast darkness of the night, she seriously doubted that Zhang Yong had any supernatural powers...

Zhang Yong stood on the balcony, holding binoculars.

As the red dot gradually approached, he discovered it was a young man on a bicycle.

He was dressed entirely in Chinese attire. He looked very young.

Zhang Yong was a little puzzled.

What was this Japanese spy doing here?

Could it be...

Zhang Yong gives Wu Liuqi a sign to hold his fire.

Zhang Yong wants to find out what the Japanese man wants. It doesn't seem like he's a spy in hiding.

The young man on the bike gets closer and closer. He doesn't realise that he's being surrounded.

Zhang Yong suddenly turns to look at Nightingale.

Nightingale shakes his head.

He's not one of them.

The young man on the bike gets closer and closer. Wu Liuqi and the others are on the verge of making a move.

Zhang Yong reaches out and stops them. There's no rush, just wait.

He waited until the young man rode past downstairs. Then he suddenly pulled something out of his pocket. It was a grenade. He reached up as if to throw it upstairs.

'Bang!'

'Bang!'

Zhang Yong decisively fired.

Unfortunately, he missed. But he scared the other guy.

The moment he fired, the grenade was affected. It veered a little and exploded in the air.

'Boom...'

Zhang Yong hurriedly dove down.

At the same time, Nightingale next to him also quickly got down.

No wonder he is a professional spy. His evasive action was fast.

'Ah...'

Then someone groaned.

It was the Japanese man who threw the grenade.

He was hit by the shrapnel from the grenade and fell to the ground. Then he was held down by a group of people.

'Hagya...'

The young man shouted obviously.

He used Japanese without any disguise.

As a result, his mouth was quickly gagged. Then he was carried up.

He had already been searched. There were no other weapons. Just a grenade.

'You ask?'

Zhang Yong deliberately said to the nightingale.

The nightingale was silent. Her face was ugly.

The young man's actions just now were obviously an attempt to throw the grenade upstairs.

What was he going to do?

Kill Zhang Yong?

Or blow up this hiding place of hers?

Or perhaps he wanted to blow her up?

No wonder Nightingale's face was beginning to look ugly. She might have thought of the words 'kill to silence'.

After she was exposed, her superiors had already begun to deploy the backup.

'They didn't want to kill you. They just want to destroy this place,' Zhang Yong actually comforted the other party.

In fact, he believed that this was the truth.

Send someone to kill Nightingale. They wouldn't send such an inexperienced rookie.

The young man who was caught was obviously a rookie. There was no counter-surveillance ability at all.

The Nightingale remained silent.

Zhang Yong also stopped talking.

If it were him, he guessed that he would not be feeling very good right now either.

After all, the fact that she had to erase her traces meant that her superiors no longer trusted her. They were worried that she would fall into the hands of the enemy.

And in fact, she had indeed been arrested.

This was even more troublesome. The next step would definitely be to kill her to keep her mouth shut.

Call it a day.

Lead the team back to the office.

Lock the Nightingale up in the innermost cell alone.

She does not need to be interrogated.

Let her think.

The more she thinks, the better. The more twisted her thoughts become, the better.

The other two Japanese invaders were taken straight to the torture chamber. The most basic interrogation began.

'You're back?' Li Jingzhi appeared.

'Yes,' Zhang Yong nodded.

Li Jingzhi then bit her lip and quietly walked away.

Zhang Yong continued with his own business.

Li Boqi was not there. There were many things that required his decision.

At first, it felt great. It was really glamorous being the boss. But gradually, he began to get bored again.

He had to find a way to get Li Boqi back to work.

Take a holiday? What holiday?

He was going to be the station manager in the future, so how could he take a holiday?

Hurry back to work!

Counting the various items he had brought back.

There were three suitcases full of money. And a suitcase full of documents.

What a pity. So much money needs to be handed in.

All of this has been exposed. Zhang Yong has no choice but to return the money. He decides to ask Li Boqi first.

Look at the time. Is it night again?

10 pm.

Oh, it's earlier than last time. He must not have slept.

It's better to sleep...

But you have to get up!

So he goes to Li Boqi's office and calls him.

'Dudu...'

'Dudu...'

No one has picked up the phone for a long time. But Zhang Yong is not discouraged.

This call must be answered by Li Boqi.

He must listen. He must.

If he doesn't want to be annoyed, he'd better get back to work. Hehe.

He placed the handset on the desk. Then he sat down. He rested his legs on the desk. It was very rude. It was very impolite. But it was very comfortable.

'Hello...' Finally, someone spoke on the other end of the line.

'Team leader, it's me!' Zhang Yong said happily, 'I have some very important news to report to you.'

'I'm on vacation!' Li Boqi snapped.

Zhang Yong pretended not to hear. It's no use being grumpy. You're the leader, after all.

After everything that's happened, if I don't report to you, who else would I report to?

You'll have to listen, whether you want to or not.

'Go on,' Li Boqi said at last.

Zhang Yong reported immediately, 'We uncovered a Japanese spy ring. We wiped them all out. We seized three boxes of silver dollars, about 10,000 in total.'

'Where was it uncovered?'

'At the Manchurian Xinxing Hotel.'

'Where were you?'

'Right. I was supposed to eliminate Toiihara Kenji. But Toiihara Kenji wasn't there. I mistakenly killed other Japanese.'

'You...'

Li Boqi felt a pain in his teeth.

But it was his own teeth that he had bitten.

You bastard! You went to a hotel in Manchukuo and killed Japanese? And then you said it was a Japanese spy?

What evidence do you have that someone else is a Japanese spy?

"Did you go in as a member of the Restoration Society?'

'Of course not. How could I be that stupid. I went in as Liu Heizi. I even left a message with the person at the front desk of the hotel. If the Japanese want to find someone, they can come and look for Liu Heizi.'

'You really, really...'

Li Boqi suddenly didn't want to take his vacation anymore. Toothache. Liverache. Stomachache. Headache. Aches all over.

It's only been three days, and Zhang Yong has already caused so much trouble. He's like a runaway horse without a bridle, daring to do anything. Now he's even gone so far as to openly kill someone on Japanese territory.

The Manchurian Xinxing Hotel is Japanese territory. You barged in, killed someone, and then just walked away.

Do you really think the Japanese are all compassionate?

'Did I do something wrong?' Zhang Yong asked, looking worried. 'Should I go and apologise to the Japanese right now?'

'You, you...' Li Boqi felt a sharp pain in his trigeminal nerve.

Go to the Japanese and apologise?

Say you killed the people? Are you an idiot? Deliberately betray our army?

Well, this little guy, he just won't admit his fault. No. He simply doesn't feel that there is anything wrong with what he did.

What's wrong with killing the Japanese?

'Right, there's also a suitcase. It's full of top secret documents. I haven't read the contents yet.'

'So why are you telling me?'

'Should I hand it in? Or analyse it myself?'

'Who should you hand it over to?'

'The team leader.'

'What if the team leader is on holiday?'

'That...'

'You can figure it out yourself!'

'Yes!'

'Please think carefully before you call in the future. I'm on holiday. Holiday! Holiday!'

Li Boqi roared three times.

Zhang Yong hurriedly put the phone away to avoid being deafened.

He inwardly grumbled.

Holiday?

Dream on!

A talent like you wants to take a holiday?

Hurry back to work!

Let's work hard together, I'll push you to the top, and then I'll continue to do whatever I like with your blessing...

'And I've captured the Nightingale.'

'Who?'

'The headliner at the Club in the Sky. Zhang Xiaolin's mistress.'

'What?'

Li Boqi suddenly felt wide awake.

This little guy. What else has he done? How much trouble has he caused?

"Why did you capture her?'

'She's Japanese. She was the one who directed the Japanese invaders to attack the Yin residence last time. Before that, she also directed the gunmen to ambush Kou Xingde's action team, killing five of our men.'

'Do you have any evidence?'

'She already admitted it. Her name is Tianhe Keiko.'

'You... How did she admit it so quickly?'

'Because I said I was going to strip her.'

'You...'

Li Boqi fell silent again.

Headache.

Body aches.

The point is, he regretted taking leave.

If he had known that Zhang Yong would cause so much trouble, he would never have dared to take leave.

Now, even Zhang Xiaolin's mistress has been arrested. She was the headliner at the Jiuzhongtian nightclub, concealing her identity as she did!

Do you know how many dignitaries she knows?

If she retracts her confession...

'What else did you do?'

'Nothing much.'

'Phew!'

Li Boqi let out a visible sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he was still in control. Zhang Xiaolin is not a big shot.

If it had been Huang Jinrong or Du Yuesheng, it would have been more troublesome.

He was secretly happy, and then heard Zhang Yong say, 'I am going to join forces with the garrison headquarters to eradicate the pirates.'

'Are you crazy?' Li Boqi suddenly became irritable, 'What do pirates have to do with you?'

'There are also Japanese among the pirates.'

'That's none of your business. You are only responsible for catching Japanese spies on land! You don't need to worry about anything else!'

Li Boqi roared again.

This is serious, serious, his hand has already reached the sea.

He actually has the time and energy to clear out the pirates. I think you are really idle. Idleness has caused problems.

'Understood!'

Zhang Yong readily accepted good advice.

He accepted it with an open mind. He was unrepentant. He was going to clear out the pirates.

What if the pirates really had treasure?

How could he miss out.

'By the way, team leader, you haven't said what to do with all that treasure?'

'What do we do with it? Seal it up! Hand it over to the finance department!'

'We can't keep any for ourselves?'

'How much do you want to keep?'

'All of it.'

'Then why did you ask me?'

'I'm not brave enough to do it alone.'

'You're not brave? What aren't you brave enough to do? You went to the Manchurian Xinxing Hotel and killed all those people, so what are you afraid of? I think you're brave enough to go to Hongkou and kill the Japanese...'

'Hey, team leader, how did you know? I was really going to attack the Tenryu Dojo...'

'Ah, don't do anything rash...'

Li Boqi exclaimed in alarm.

Then the phone went dead.

Zhang Yong: ?

What's going on?

Why did he hang up?

He told me not to do anything rash?

That means it's OK to do it. But you can't just do it.

You have to plan it. Think it through. You can only succeed, you can't fail.

Indeed, there was only one chance to attack the Hongkou Tenryu Dojo. If the first attempt failed, it would be very difficult to attack again.

The Japanese are not stupid. They will definitely strengthen their defences.

With so many Japanese troops stationed in Hongkou, it would be suicide for him to charge in with just a few dozen men.

Be careful.

Be cautious.

'Ring, ring...'

'Ring, ring...'

Suddenly the phone rang.

Huh? It's so late at night? Who is calling?

He suddenly remembered the previous phone call. So a slight sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth. He picked up the receiver.

'I told you, I'm the pangolin...'

'What are you talking about? I'll be back at work tomorrow!'

'Huh?'

Zhang Yong was stunned.

It turned out to be the voice of Li Boqi.

Oh, he's coming back to work? That's good. Work is king.

Great!

Li Boqi is back at work.

That means there's nothing for me to do.

I can continue to live it up and be arrogant again.

When Li Boqi becomes the head of the Shanghai station in the future, hehehe...
