Chapter 377: Silenced, but
The red dot is constantly moving.
There is no fixed reference on the river, and it is difficult for Zhang Yong to accurately determine the location of Miyamoto Teguma.
He can only be sure that the opponent is still within a radius of 250 meters.
The small white dot closest to the red dot is about ten meters away. It should be Wei Da, the little fish.
This guy has a strange name. But he is good at swimming. He has never been able to shake Miyamoto Teguma. The movements in the water are obvious, and they can be felt from more than ten metres away.
I guess Miyamoto Teguma really wants to shake him off, but he can't. Wei Da is always focused on his target.
'Let's go downstream,'
'Go ahead and block him,'
Zhang Yong instructed the boatman.
Judging from the movement of the red dot, he is trying to escape using his speed.
So, he is going downstream. He is using the speed of the river, combined with his own speed, to try and pull away.
Zhang Yong certainly won't give the other guy a chance.
In the water, he definitely won't be able to catch up with him. But now there is a boat!
It's still a semi-mechanical powered ship, which is in any case a bit faster than a person swimming with their arms. And it won't get tired.
In fact, after getting on the boat, Zhang Yong realised that it seems a bit dangerous?
What if he was attacked by Miyamoto Tekuma and the boat sank? That would be bad. Although he could swim, his technique was only average.
If he fell into the water, he definitely wouldn't be a match for Miyamoto Tekuma.
However, he didn't back down. If he went into the water, he would escape from Miyamoto Tekuma. That would be good, just pull out the gun. Shoot it at his body.
If you hold the muzzle against the other person's body, you should be able to kill them, right?
If that doesn't work, just detonate the grenade. We'll die together.
Then he realised that he had been thinking too much.
He could monitor Miyamoto's location at any time, so how could he let him get close?
In fact, he was still a long way from Miyamoto.
A lot of people had already surrounded him.
The Fish Gang were still very motivated.
Who wouldn't want 10,000 taels of silver?
The key was that so many people were hunting one person, which gave them a huge psychological advantage.
If one person can't kill you, ten people can, right?
What? Ten people still aren't enough? How about a hundred people...
'Splash!'
'Splash!'
Finally, Miyamoto Teguma began to panic.
With so many enemies closing in, he couldn't escape quickly. After all, he was in the water.
Even if he had superhuman abilities, he couldn't swim like a real fish. If someone else came up in a boat, they would definitely be able to catch up.
Moreover, many fishing boats had already intercepted ahead. Blocking his way.
More and more people jumped into the water.
In addition to a difficult young man, there were more people jumping into the water.
One of them was Hao San Ge.
At first, Hao San Ge actually wanted to let Miyamoto Teguma go. However, later, he realised that Miyamoto Teguma simply couldn't escape.
So many people were after him, and Zhang Yong had even come out in person. How could he possibly escape?
Hao San Ge, who didn't know the details, thought that Zhang Yong must be very powerful.
In fact...
'Go to the centre of the river!'
Zhang Yong said to the boatman. He wanted to make sure that he kept a close eye on his target.
Once they reached the centre of the river, they were close to Miyamoto Teguma. No matter which direction he fled, he could not escape the surveillance of the map.
This made Hao Sange even more worried.
He thought that Zhang Yong was going to get into the water himself. Then it would be over.
In that case, it is better to take the credit than to let someone else take it. Therefore, he gradually became more active. He directed the other fishing boats to surround and intercept in an orderly manner. Miyamoto Teguma was blocked from all directions. Zhang Yong gave him a thumbs-up from afar to show his encouragement.
Good, killing Miyamoto Teguma will be beneficial to you.
The top management of your Japanese spy agency will definitely be very satisfied with your performance.
Heh heh...
'Baka!'
Miyamoto Teguma knew he was in trouble today.
After swimming for so long to escape, his physical strength had been greatly depleted. He was no longer as agile as before.
Although, the people chasing him had also expended a lot of physical strength. However, fresh troops were constantly replacing those behind him. There were already hundreds of people surrounding him.
Helpless, he had to use his ultimate move.
Miyamoto Teguma made a deep dive to try to avoid everyone.
However, he soon discovered that the pursuit from behind had not lessened. Many people followed him down.
Hagah!
Damn it!
Why are so many Chinese so good at swimming?
Oh, others make a living here. They feed themselves by the Yangtze River. Can't they swim well? That's their forte!
Dive deep...
Escape...
Come up for air.
Suddenly, Miyamoto Takeru saw Zhang Yong.
Yes, it was him!
It's that son of a bitch! It's him!
He's the one who led the manhunt against him time and again!
If he wasn't so fast, he would have been killed by Zhang Yong a long time ago.
Damn it!
The evil has made him brave!
He has decided to kill Zhang Yong!
It so happens that
Zhang Yong is not far from him.
It's only about 100 metres away. And he is still heading downstream.
Good!
Miyamoto Teguma immediately speeds up and closes in on Zhang Yong.
'Eh?'
Zhang Yong suddenly had a thought.
Was the red dot actually moving towards him?
At first, he thought that Miyamoto Tega was trying to escape by giving him the way. But then he realised that wasn't the case. The other party was moving straight towards him.
Hey, there's such a good thing!
What should I say? Offering himself up? Seeking death?
Zhang Yong silently monitored the map.
Since the enemy was actively seeking death, he would of course not hold back.
It was just as well to kill the other party to silence him.
How to kill?
Grenades!
Once the enemy is within effective range, throw the grenade into the water.
Heh heh...
This is really the hand of God feeding.
Miyamoto Tega actually made such a low-level mistake!
He came here to die on his own initiative.
Eighty meters...
Sixty meters...
I have to say, this Miyamoto Tega is really quite fast.
No one behind him is catching up.
Soon, a distance of more than 20 meters opened up between Miyamoto Tega and his pursuers.
Very good, this distance is just right.
This way, they won't blow up their own people.
Zhang Yong quietly prepares the American-made MK2 hand grenade. This thing has a relatively strong explosive force.
The wooden-handled hand grenade produced in Gong County only has 37 grams of explosives and has an average explosive power. It mainly relies on fragmentation to kill. However, the American-made MK2 hand grenade has nearly 100 grams of explosives.
Forty meters...
Thirty meters...
The distance is getting closer and closer.
Zhang Yong activates the grenade. Then he throws it.
'Plop!'
The grenade hits the water.
There is silence.
It seems as if there is no movement on the river.
Until...
'Boom!'
A muffled sound.
It seems as if the water has split open.
The noise is not loud.
After all, it is only a grenade.
It feels like throwing a firecracker. There is hardly any splash.
However, the Miyamoto Tekuma in the water felt as if he had been electrocuted. It felt as if he had been hit by a weight of several dozen tons. He almost fainted on the spot.
'Hagya...'
'Hand grenade...'
'No military ethics...'
His consciousness was also dazed by the explosion.
He couldn't believe how the other party had determined his location. How they had thrown the hand grenade so accurately near him.
It had just exploded...
Hagya!
It was dark!
He was diving!
How could the other party detect him accurately in the dark?
"Plop!'
Suddenly, another grenade entered the water.
However, Zhang Yong was worried that one grenade was not enough, so he threw another.
'Boom...'
The grenade exploded nearby.
Miyamoto Takeru was hit again. He almost fainted on the spot.
Even though his combat effectiveness and vitality were very tenacious, at this moment, he could only take the bomb.
The grenade exploded, and the shrapnel missed him. The shrapnel was stopped by the water. However, the shockwave from the explosion in the water was extremely damaging. It shook his internal organs and almost completely shattered them.
Baka...
No military ethics...
One grenade wasn't enough, and he threw it...
'Plop!'
Suddenly, another grenade entered the water.
However, Zhang Yong felt that neither of them was completely safe. So a third grenade was thrown down.
Capture him alive?
I hope so.
If none of the three grenades killed him, then it is indeed possible to capture him alive.
All three grenades exploded near Miyamoto Takeru. They must have caused him considerable harm. If you want to capture him alive, there is still a chance.
Sure enough...
After the three grenades exploded, Miyamoto Takeru was dying. He had serious internal injuries.
'It's over...'
'Damn it...'
He struggled hard. Unfortunately, it was no use.
He was too badly injured to move.
His body floated up out of the water of its own accord. It was out of his control.
'He's coming up!'
'He's coming up!'
Dai Yice shouted. He subconsciously raised his gun and was about to shoot.
Zhang Yong thought, this is a good move. It just happened to help me get rid of the witness...
However, at this moment...
Miyamoto Teguma used all his strength and shouted out in a stern voice, 'Don't kill me, I'll pay...'
Zhang Yong immediately reached out and lifted Dai Yice's gun.
He heard it clearly.
The other person said, 'Pay me!'
"Da da da...'
'Da da da...'
The bullet flew towards the sky.
A group of night birds that happened to be flying low overhead suffered.
'Capture him alive!'
'Capture him alive!'
Zhang Yong shouted.
Dai Yize then let go of the trigger.
The others also lowered their guns one after the other. Then they began preparing the tools.
All that could be seen was the floating and drifting of Miyamoto Teguma in the water. If you didn't look closely, you would think that he was already dead.
'Hurry!'
'Hurry!'
Zhang Yong shouted anxiously.
Finally, someone used a hook to hook Miyamoto Teguma. Then they hauled it up.
At this moment, Miyamoto Teguma no longer had the slightest strength left and could barely keep his eyes open. This was his last ounce of strength. His internal organs had been shattered by the explosion.
Zhang Yong squatted down and stared at the other man.
You have money?
Really?
'I, I, I have 300,000 US dollars...'
'How much?'
'300,000 US dollars...'
Miyamoto Teguma's voice suddenly became very weak. His eyes began to drift.
Zhang Yong suddenly felt bad.
Oh no, don't die! Hurry up and tell me where the dollars are.
Just tell me the location!
However...
'Ahem!'
'Ahem!'
Miyamoto Teguma suddenly coughed violently.
At the same time, he vomited a large amount of blood. Then he was unable to speak again. He was also unable to move.
Zhang Yong was dumbfounded.
He regretted it. If he had known, just throwing a grenade would have been enough.
He didn't expect that the grenade would explode in the water and cause such internal injuries. There was no external injury at all. But the person would die immediately.
'Tell me where it is!'
'Tell me where it is!'
He hurriedly grabbed the chest of Miyamoto Teguma.
Unfortunately, Miyamoto Teguma tilted his head, his hands dropped, and then there was no more movement.
Zhang Yong: ...
Oh. Is he really dead?
No way?
Damn...
He was silenced. But, it was too early...
Dai Yice came up to check the pulse, check the carotid artery, open his eyes, and then...
'He's dead.'
'Er...'
Zhang Yong was both happy and sad.
He was happy because Miyamoto Teguma was dead, and no one would mention the secret of the handbag.
He was sad because the location of the 300,000 US dollars had not been revealed.
That was 300,000 US dollars!
Not 30,000!
That was a truly enormous sum of money. He wanted it, to be sure.
However...
'Check again.'
'Okay!'
The others came up to check.
They were finally convinced that Miyamoto Teguma was really dead. The cause of death was the complete disintegration of his internal organs.
It can be confirmed that it was caused by the shock of the grenade explosion. If it were an ordinary person, they would have been killed by the shock of the first grenade. It is already very abnormal that he was able to hold on until now.
Zhang Yong: ...
Alas, plans change.
Never mind, just let it be...
At this time, Hao San and the others also came up. Xiaoyu also emerged from the water.
The others also came up in a crowd.
Needless to say, it was for the reward of 10,000 taels of silver that they had promised earlier.
So he ordered the boat to dock.
Then he gathered everyone together.
'I will honour my promise of 10,000 taels of silver,' Zhang Yong said, "but there must be a good reason for the reward. You, Brother Hao, are the hero who killed this Japanese invader!'
'No, I didn't, I didn't..." Brother Hao instinctively refused.
Did he feel trapped?
Did he kill a Japanese? Did he kill one of his own people?
He was confused...
If the higher-ups find out...
The higher-ups will definitely find out.
Because the Chinese will definitely publicise it. By then, he might become a 'traitor'.
However, Zhang Yong also had good intentions.
If he had refused, there would have been no reward.
'You, Wei Da, 1,000 taels of silver each. How about the other 8,000 taels being divided among the others?'
'Good, good, good!'
The others cheered.
Zhang Yong then quickly cut the Gordian knot and took out the banknotes.
It was a bit strange to carry around a huge amount of banknotes, but since he had promised, he definitely had to honour his promise.
As for how to make up for the ten thousand taels of silver in the future, there would be plenty of opportunities.
Just take it back in an honest and fair way when the time comes.
For a reward like this, it was impossible for him to pay out of his own pocket. No one would have anything to say when it was taken back in the future.
The rewards were distributed.
They were all silver certificates. There weren't that many silver dollars.
Ten thousand silver dollars would be divided among two or three hundred people. Everyone would get twenty or thirty silver dollars.
For these poor people living by the river, these silver dollars should help improve their lives. It would ease their plight.
It was also doing good deeds. It was of immeasurable merit.
Li Jingqian looked on from afar, nodding thoughtfully.
It seemed that...
this guy wasn't actually a bad person?
So many rewards, paid out on the spot. Look at the happy faces of the people around you.
He's amazing at making money. But he's also really generous with his gifts.
I can't help but think...
'Click!'
'Click!'
Someone took a picture of Miyuki's corpse.
This is very important. We must make sure. Maybe it will be in the newspaper.
The ghost in red has caused a lot of trouble, and the people must be told the truth.
From now on, there is nothing to fear.
There is no more red-clad female ghost...
'Unfortunately...'
'She's dead...'
Taniho and Ryu Doumu both felt a little sorry.
Perhaps the only regret was that they had not captured her alive. But this regret soon faded.
After all, they had captured someone. Who cares if they are dead or alive?
Let's take them back.
Zhang Yong went to report to the chief first.
Although it was late at night, the chief was still full of energy.
'Chief, this is Miyamoto Teguma. I suspect that he masterminded the whole business with the red-clad female ghost.'
'Well done.'
'I'm going to take him to Miyamoto Shichiro to see what he has to say.'
'Good!'
The chief agreed.
Zhang Yong led the corpse of Miyamoto Teguma into the torture chamber.
'You, you, you...'
'You, you, you...'
Miyamoto Shichiro's face suddenly changed.
Who is the person the other party has brought back? It looks like Miyamoto Teguma?
Oh my god!
He actually killed Miyamoto Teguma?
Oh my god!
I can't believe it!
The other party actually killed Miyamoto Teguma!
Miyamoto Teguma has actually been killed!
'Hagya!'
'Our Miyamoto family will not let you go.'
'Hagya!'
'We want revenge!'
'We want revenge!'
Miyamoto Shichiro roared hysterically.
His cheeks were distorted.
His eyes were ablaze.
He was furious.
He had never imagined that Miyamoto Teguma could actually be killed. Never.
However, the cruel truth before him told him that Miyamoto Teguma had indeed been killed. The corpse was right in front of him. It was unmistakable. That was the corpse of Miyamoto Teguma. It was not a disguise.
There were no external injuries, only internal ones. So, even a blind man would not mistake it for anyone else's corpse.
Zhang Yong pretended not to hear.
It wasn't until Miyamoto Shichiro had vented his anger that he said calmly, 'I'm sorry, I made a mistake. Actually, I really didn't want to kill him...'
'Hagya! You! You go to hell! You go to hell!' Miyamoto Shichiro continued to rage.
Zhang Yong continued to listen calmly.
He was used to it. He just closed his eyes and rested.
When the other person was tired of venting, they would naturally stop.
Sure enough, Miyamoto Shichiro was furious for half an hour and finally exhausted.
Zhang Yong then continued, 'Well, young Miyamoto, did your uncle say anything to you? For example, about the US dollar...'
'What?'
'The 300,000 US dollars...'
'What?'
'Before he died, Miyamoto Teguma said he had 300,000 US dollars to give me...'
'Baka! You devil! You go to hell! You can't have it! You devil...'
'We can negotiate about this.'
'Baka!'
Miyamoto Shichiro went crazy on the spot.
It's true.
He went crazy from the shock.
Miyamoto Teguma was killed, and then the other party demanded money!
And said it was a gift to him!
Heck!
I've seen shameless, but I've never seen such shamelessness!
Zhang Yong: ...
Failed?
Miyamoto Shichiro may not know?
What should we do?
Go find someone else from the Miyamoto family?
Right, who else is in the Miyamoto family? Are they all as good as this Miyamoto Teguma?
Just one Miyamoto Teguma is so hard to deal with...
If a group of them suddenly appear...
It seems that in the future, I should always carry grenades for self-defence...
In fact, grenades are still very useful in critical moments.
As long as you roughly judge the position of the target, you can just throw it over.
The only requirement is that you need a little strength. You can throw it about 30 metres.
Of course, you can also throw it 20 metres without any problem. But it is easy to injure yourself.
To be on the safe side, I might need to practise a little bit more in the future?
He came out of the torture chamber in a huff.
Miyamoto Shichiro obviously couldn't provide any valuable information. The trail was cut off.
Turning. Entering the listening room next door.
'Chief,'
'what's the story with the 300,000 US dollars?'
'Miyamoto Teguma said that just before he died. Only Team Leader Dai and his team were present at the time.'
'Any concrete clues?'
'There isn't any.'
Zhang Yong was very sorry.
The director picked up a folder and handed it to him.
'Take a look.'
'Yes.'
Zhang Yong took it with some doubt.
He opened it. Inside were some basic information about the Miyamoto family.
'Miyamoto Erbao?'
'Miyamoto Zuxiang?'
'Miyamoto Nao Hu?'
'Miyamoto Bilong?'
'Miyamoto Liudu?'
Zhang Yong's expression became more and more strange.
What kind of names are these? Are they all from the Miyamoto family? What kind of stupid names are these?
Can't they come up with something normal?
There are also some names that aren't Miyamoto.
'This is some of the information we've gathered in Japan,' the Chief said slowly. 'This Miyamoto family was a guest of honour at many Japanese spy agencies. They are all experts. They are all key members of the Black Dragon Society. You killed one Miyamoto Teguma, and the other family members will definitely not let you go. They will definitely retaliate. So, you have to be careful.'
'Director, do they know about the 300,000 US dollars?'
'Maybe they do.'
The director did not give a direct answer.
However, his attitude was very clear.
He also wanted to get the 300,000 US dollars. Therefore, he supported Zhang Yong in any action.
He bid the director farewell.
Zhang Yong returned to the office next to the chicken and goose alley.
Zhong Yang, Yang Zhi, Luo Yiming, and Cao Mengqi were all there. They were all very sorry. They had actually missed such a wonderful battle.
Zhong Yang and Cao Mengqi in particular. They had participated in the siege of Kumamoto twice before. Both times, the opponent had escaped.
Unexpectedly, this time, Zhang Yong had finally killed the opponent.
And it was in the water.
It was a pity...
that they had not been there to witness it.
'You can read the detailed battle report!'
'I'm tired. I want to sleep...'
Zhang Yong was weak.
After a day of excitement, he was indeed exhausted.
Take a shower. Go to bed.
Feeling exhausted.
In the evening, he was so drowsy that he actually dreamed of Li Jingqian...
He woke up in the morning.
He remembered last night's dream. He shook his head.
Really. Even he felt that he had gone a bit too far.
Believe it or not, she might shoot herself...
He had breakfast.
The four guys from last night immediately gathered around him.
The relevant battle report could not be sent down so quickly. If they wanted to know, they would have to ask Zhang Yong to explain.
So Zhang Yong gave a brief description of the scene.
Of course, he kept his achievements and reputation to himself.
Why were you so accurate with the grenades? A guess. I was just throwing them around. Just lucky.
Why did you throw three in a row? I was worried that I wouldn't hit anything. I didn't think that I would hit all of them. And I even killed Miyamoto. In the end, it was just lucky.
The four of them agreed wholeheartedly.
Indeed, in the dark, who can accurately judge the position of the enemy in the water?
It has to be said, Zhang Yong's luck is indeed good.
So what? You can't learn it.
Just be envious. Forget about learning it.
God will not give them that good luck.
After breakfast,
Zhang Yong took the four of them on a mission.
What mission?
A very, very important mission—to the Military Senate!
