Chapter 710: I fired 100 bullets

Natasha curled up in the quilt, motionless.

If someone didn't know any better, they might think she had killed herself.

In fact, she hadn't.

Zhang Yong knew that very well. She was very much alive.

The fierce fighting spirit of the Russian people was not only shown on the battlefield...

'Natasha!'

'Natasha!'

Zhang Yong pats the soft duvet. Trying to wake her up.

However, Natasha doesn't react at all. It seems like she really is dead. Fortunately, you can still see her breathing.

Crouches down and tries to pull her up. Suddenly, Natasha wakes up. Reaches out. And hugs him.

Zhang Yong: ...

His mind is suddenly in a state of confusion.

This woman. She's crazy. She doesn't care about her life.

You're fine. I'm not fine! I've got a bad back. Stop struggling. Get up quickly.

I still need to take you to the river and shoot you.

We're in a hurry.

Struggles.

Realises she's not wearing any clothes.

Well, I need to get her dressed. I can't take her out like that.

So looks for clothes...

After a lot of fuss, he finally succeeds in 'binding' her up. Then he 'escorts' her out of the room.

Natasha must have been tired. She finally stopped struggling.

Yang Lichu was standing outside and deliberately asked, 'Director Zhang, what's going on?'

'She's a spy,' Zhang Yong took out the codebook, 'This is the Japanese codebook. She was hiding it.'

'Where are you taking her?' Yang Lichu frowned.

'To the scene,' Zhang Yong did not give a direct answer. After all, there were other foreigners there.

Yang Lichu then stopped asking.

Acting. That's about enough.

Zhang Yong gets into the car with the others. Then they drive quickly to the bank of the Qiantang River.

There's no time to lose. The execution must take place immediately. A second's delay could lead to an unforeseen situation.

Suddenly, a yellow dot appears on the edge of the map.

It's getting closer. It turns out to be no one else than the fisherman. He's actually on this street too.

This is...

What a coincidence.

It seems that he's destined to be with him.

Fine. Just as well. He'll be just the person for the job at hand.

Stop the car.

Get out.

Stop the fisherman.

The fisherman recognises Zhang Yong and is puzzled. What is this about?

"Come with me.'

'What?'

'Where do you fish?'

'By the river.'

'Where by the river? The exact location.'

'I can't say...'

'Do you have a fishing boat?'

'Yes...'

'Where is it?'

'Shanbei Village...'

'Take me there.'

'What are you...'

'Get in the car!'

Zhang Yong forced the other person to get into the car.

In the car, there was only Natasha. And the fisherman. Zhang Yong drove himself.

Fisherman: ?

Observing with confusion. Getting more and more confused.

What is this again.

Saw Natasha. Seems to be a foreign girl. But her expression was blank. As if she were a living dead. Yes. Someone got in the car, but she didn't react.

'My name is Zhang Yong. I'm with the Special Services Department of the Restoration Society.'

'I am also the Director of Intelligence of the Air Force Staff Department of the Nationalist Government.'

Zhang Yong got straight to the point.

The fisherman suddenly understood.

So this guy is Zhang Yong!

I've heard of him. But I've never met him. I don't know him. I never thought it would be him.

Everyone said he was a bit strange. Sure enough.

Yesterday he gave me a stack of banknotes. Now, I wonder what he's up to.

'I'll take her to the riverbank and execute her.'

'Of course. It's just for show. After the shot is fired, she'll fall into the water.'

'Your task is to rescue her. Then find a place to settle her down. Keep it a secret.'

'I will pay for all expenses.'

'She is a communications expert. She is well-versed in telecommunications technology. She is proficient in radio. She is proficient in codes.'

'She is very useful to me. I want to ask her to decipher the Japanese code.'

Zhang Yong speaks quickly and directly.

He tells everything.

The fisherman: ?

Seems to understand. And not to understand.

I don't know why they staged the fake execution. It all seems very complicated.

'She's in trouble. Someone wants to kill her.'

'I killed her first. I faked her death.'

Zhang Yong explains the reason directly.

The other person is a member of the underground party. There is no need to hide it.

'Why did you choose me?'

'I happened to see you.'

'This...'

'Also, you are on their side.'

'Which side?'

'The side the Party Investigation Department wants to arrest.'

'You...'

The fisherman felt incredulous.

Was Zhang Yong saying that he already knew his identity?

How was that possible?

He was new. A completely new line.

Because of the original traitor in Hangzhou, the organisation had decided to start a completely new line.

This line had no intersection with Hangzhou, Shanghai or Jinling. The superior in charge of this line had also been transferred from elsewhere.

They had no tasks for the time being. It was completely on standby. There was no specific work.

Who knew that Zhang Yong would come knocking on the door?

In just a few seconds, the fisherman went over all the activities on his own line. No loopholes were found!

How did this guy Zhang Yong figure out his identity?

It's really strange...

Fortunately, this guy is not an enemy.

Although, this guy has no connection with the organisation, he does not have any malicious intent.

Otherwise, the underground party would be wiped out.

This feeling is very bad. He doesn't want this to happen. But one must always be prepared.

The problem is...

There is no way of knowing where the loophole is. How can you prevent it?

"You've got it all wrong.'

'I don't care who you are. Anyway, you have to help me with this. I'll pay. You do the work.'

'Apart from you, who else knows?'

'She knows now. You can kill her to keep her quiet...'

'Nonsense.'

The fisherman couldn't help but become serious.

Killing someone to keep them quiet. That was nonsense.

'You see, you're getting anxious. You've revealed your identity.'

'Zhang Yong, what's going on?'

'Anyway, just think of it as a favour to me. I'll pay you, give you the radio...'

'We're not doing any deals.'

'Then I'll have to go to the Crocodile Gang.'

'Go ahead.'

'Okay. Get out of the car!'

Zhang Yong was also a bit piqued. He felt that the other party was being unreasonable.

Saving a life is like building a seven-storey pagoda. How can you not help? However, the real reason was something he couldn't possibly tell the other party.

The other person also belonged to the camp of Big Brother. It was taboo to question Big Brother in this way.

Later, Zhang Yong felt that it would be better to ask the Crocodile Gang to step in.

The fisherman got out of the car. He thought about it for a while. Then he turned back. 'I can help you get back up. But I don't know anything. I'm just saving a life.'

'Okay,' Zhang Yong nodded. He felt that this fisherman still had a human touch.

'How do you want to do it?'

'Get in the car. Go to the river.'

'That's all.'

'Understood. I won't ask you to do anything against the rules of the organisation. No money. No deal. You're just rescuing people. You just happened to come across it. It has nothing to do with anyone.'

Zhang Yong spread out.

The fisherman then got back into the car. Then there was silence.

Natasha was silent the whole way. I don't know what she was thinking. Maybe she wasn't thinking about anything, just walking like a zombie.

'Shanbei Village...'

'Yes.'

'Which way?'

'East...'

Under the fisherman's guidance, Zhang Yong arrived at Shanbei Village.

He ordered everyone to get out of the car. He sealed off the area. Then Zhang Yong personally pushed Natasha to the riverbank. He found a small mound.

The river was just below it. If she fell, she would fall into the river.

Downstream, the fisherman had already prepared a small fishing boat. It was actually a small sampan.

Displacement...

Forget it, I can't afford to use that word.

Anyway, it was a small fishing boat. It could stand a few people at most. More than that and it would sink.

Why not just hand Natasha over to the fisherman? No. There has to be a sense of ritual. At the very least, there has to be a gunshot. She has to fall into the water. Natasha has to know that she has already passed through the gates of hell. That she is dead. That her life can start again.

So...

the ritual has to be grand.

'Give it to me!'

Zhang Yong has specially taken a Thompson submachine gun.

It has a 100-round drum specially installed. He is ready to 'send' Natasha on her way.

If someone asks in the future:

"Did Natasha die?'

'I fired 100 rounds...'

'So did she die or not?'

'I fired 100 rounds...'

'I'm asking you, did she die or not?'

'I fired 100 rounds...'

That's his answer.

No matter what you ask, that's the answer.

What?

You won't give up? You're still going to pester me?

Then the 100 bullets will hit you. He Zhangyong has so many spirit rings under his command, a few more won't matter.

Natasha stood like a log on the bank.

God knows what she was thinking.

But it was good.

That was a good position.

Raise the gun.

Prepare to be reborn.

Pull the trigger.

'Da da da...'

'Da da da...'

The bullets whizzed past Natasha.

The gunfire sent the insects flying from the shore. The water surface seemed to ripple.

Unknown silver-white river fish also joined in the fun, seemingly startled, and jumped out of the water, drawing beautiful arcs in the air.

Zhang Yong pressed the muzzle of the gun and opened fire on the river fish. What a spoiler. Lives were lost.

The river surface suddenly turned a pale red.

The bullets were gone.

Natasha was still like a wooden man.

Zhang Yong went up and pushed her hard with his strength. He watched her fall into the river.

'Plop...'

'Splash...'

The water splashed.

Natasha sank into the river. No one was in sight.

The fisherman rowed over.

Zhang Yong watched Natasha float back up and then be pulled onto the boat by the fisherman.

Okay. That's about it. The sense of ritual is there.

The rest is just...

Huh? It seems like there's nothing to do.

And even if there is, I don't really feel like doing it. Especially not the big things.

I'm just a small person, and I don't have any influence on those historical events, so why be so active?

Oh...

It seems like I need to go find the Crocodile Gang.

Right. Go find Wu Baishun. See what kind of person he is.

Don't let him steal Natasha after she's handed over to him. She's his woman, Zhang Yong. He's very possessive.

It's only natural.

Once you have a certain amount of power, you want to monopolise everything.

When the fisherman reached the shore, Zhang Yong came forward. He saw that Natasha was pale and her mouth was constantly bubbling. It seems that she drank a lot of river water.

She is definitely a landlubber. She can't swim. This wave was enough for her.

'Okay. The person has been rescued.'

'Thank you.'

Zhang Yong took out a large sum of money and gave it to the fisherman.

The fisherman knew he was rich. He didn't refuse. Then he sailed off to catch some fish.

Somehow, Zhang Yong always felt that the fisherman was running a little fast. It was as if he was afraid that Zhang Yong would make another request.

Really...

Am I Zhang Yong a plague? So afraid...

Hey, the more you're afraid, the more I'll pester you. I haven't made a mistake. I'm just striving for progress. What's wrong with that?

Even if Ke Gong came, I would have to argue with him face to face...

Arguing won't kill you...

'Achoo!'

'Achoo!'

Natasha suddenly sneezed desperately.

Zhang Yong: ...

Forget it. It's not appropriate to arrange for her to go to the Crocodile Gang.

Natasha is a woman. She must be taken care of by a woman. What if there are no women in the Crocodile Gang? Then she'll be taken advantage of by other people.

He, Zhang Yong, definitely wouldn't feel comfortable.

It's fine for him to take advantage of others, but not for others to take advantage of her.

Typical double standards.

But Yang Lichu can't be asked. She's busy. And she's also conspicuous.

Who should it be?

Ah, I've got the perfect candidate.

Ai Ye...

Yes, that's it. Liao Panxi's sister-in-law.

Didn't she just take over the Huaqiao Hotel? Let's just put Natasha in the Huaqiao Hotel.

After all, it is a hotel, with relatively complete living facilities.

There are also waitresses.

If possible, let Ai Ye take care of her directly. Hehe. Forcing her to take care of her personally...

Okay, that's it.

Immediately, he took Natasha to the Huaqiao Hotel.

From afar, he noticed the mark on the map. Very good. Ai Ye is at the Huaqiao Hotel.

When the car arrived at the hotel, they found Ai Ye in the lobby. So they stopped the car. Ai Ye came out of the hotel. She saw Zhang Yong. And she saw the woman in Zhang Yong's arms.

She was puzzled.

'Team Leader Zhang, what is this...'

'My lover. Please take care of her for me.'

'How?'

'Just stay at your hotel. Keep an eye on her for me.'

'Okay.'

Ai Ye looked at Natasha curiously.

Natasha seemed to sense the aggression. Suddenly, she hugged Zhang Yong tightly.

Zhang Yong: ...

Sweat, don't do this!

In public, can you please behave yourself a little?

This isn't your character. You're a workaholic! You don't have any emotions in your life...

However...

Natasha started to kiss him.

Ai Ye widened her eyes, then turned her face away. Obviously, she couldn't bear to watch.

Zhang Yong: ...

Sister-in-law, don't get me wrong!

I really am not...

Hey, Natasha, wake up, wake up, don't you ruin my image of being wise and valiant!

If you do this, how am I going to get by in the future...

It was only with difficulty that Natasha was brought under control.

Ai Ye then slowly turned back to look at him, her eyes full of contempt.

'You've got it all wrong...'

'Your lover is really something.'

'No...'

Zhang Yong was at a loss for words.

Alas, this time, I really have been ruined by Natasha.

I was careless...

I didn't have time to dodge...

I never thought that she would actually trap me.

However, that wasn't the most fatal thing.

The most fatal thing was that another person came out of the lobby, and it was Liao Panxi. Well, she was also here.

It seems that she witnessed everything just now. She didn't appear until now.

Okay. It's just what you saw. Zhang Yong decided to throw in the towel. Act like a loser.

'Team Leader Zhang...'

'My lover. Please take care of her.'

'Do you have many lovers?'

'Less than a hundred.'

'You...'

Liao Panxi wanted to say something, but stopped.

This guy. Really. Less than a hundred.

What do you think you're eating? You want a hundred more. With a body like yours, can you handle it?

She didn't bother to expose the other person's shamelessness.

This guy's shamelessness was also quite unique.

'What's her name?'

'Lü Linna.'

'Okay.'

Liao Panxi helped Natasha up.

Strangely, when Natasha opened her eyes and saw Liao Panxi, she obediently let herself be helped up.

Zhang Yong let out a sigh of relief.

It really pays to have more friends. One more friend means one more way out.

You see, Ai Ye taking over the Huaqiao Hotel is not entirely a bad thing. It will come in handy right now.

Perhaps, when the time comes, it is not impossible to hand over the hotel to someone else and let him bear the humiliation of running the business in Hangzhou...

As long as the Liao family woman doesn't have to come out in the open...

'That's good, I need to talk to you,' Ai Ye suddenly said, "Team Leader Zhang, are you free?'

'No," Zhang Yong shook his head.

'Don't worry, we will take good care of your lover.'

'Then I'm free.'

'You really are petty.'

'Thank you for the compliment,'

Zhang Yong nodded. He graciously accepted the other person's sarcasm.

He didn't want to be magnanimous or anything. He was just petty. He held a grudge. He didn't let go of a grudge overnight. What's wrong?

"What is it?'

'Someone asked me to ask you something.'

'Go ahead.'

'When you were in Shanghai Beach, weren't you in a house where you found a lot of Thompson submachine guns?'

'That's right. There was such a thing.'

'The owner of the house asked me to ask you if there is any possibility of returning this batch of Thompsons.'

'No,'

Zhang Yong replied flatly. Return it? What a ridiculous idea!

Once something has fallen into Zhang Yong's hands, there is no way it will ever be returned. Don't even think about it!

He knows that he will offend people. But he doesn't care.

He has offended so many people already, so he is not afraid of a few more. As long as he doesn't offend the Red Party, he doesn't need to fear anyone in the future.

But...

How did the other party find Ai Ye?

It seems that he is also a person of great power. Could it be that Du Yuesheng has personally intervened?

Haha...

That would be exciting.
