Chapter 45 Reversal and Comeback
The old man pointed to the manuscript written by Niu Feng and said:
"Take a quick look, it's written exactly as you meant."
Xiang Chu nodded, read the manuscript carefully, and praised:
"That's really good. Do you want to give Niu Feng some bonus?"
"My own comrade, no need!"
The old man shook his head.
Xiang Chu thought about it and emptied his pockets and put all the French currency and silver dollars in front of the old man, which made the old man laugh and cry.
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "Uncle! You keep the money and give him some as you see fit. This is more reasonable. If someone with ulterior motives investigates this matter, it will also be justified."
"Chu kid! You need to save some money and play your role well."
The old man scolded in a low voice and pushed back a pile of French currency and silver dollars.
"Don't worry! I left a lot."
Xiang Chu hurriedly pushed it back.
The stalemate between the two was not a good idea, so the old man had to accept it.
He thought about it and nodded, "Okay! Giving Niu Feng some money will also help you hide."
Xiang Chu changed the subject and said, "Uncle! When I led the team to search No. 9 Wenhua Road, I found that 'Nighthawk' lived there. If I acted immediately, it would be easy to be exposed. I had no choice but to send a telegram to the headquarters to send someone..."
Before Xiang Chu finished speaking, the old man interrupted him and said with a smile:
"The headquarters is in our hands. Don't worry! A comrade has already volunteered to avenge Cuckoo. We will soon eliminate the traitor Nighthawk."
Xiang Chu said thoughtfully: "Uncle! Let me get rid of Nighthawk in a few days. I think the Party Affairs Office may have set up secret sentries near Nighthawk's residence."
"No!"
The old man just said this one word firmly, not allowing Xiang Chu to refute.
After Xiang Chu talked to the old man for a while, he took a copy of Niu Feng's revised draft on the coffee shop incident and led Ning Qiang and Lei Guihua away from the Jinling Times Publishing House.
Ning Qiang didn't want to get in the car, and said weakly: "Sir! Can I take a rest in the afternoon?"
Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Okay! Take a break. I'll take the thunder..."
"Thank you! We are leaving now."
Before Xiang Chu finished talking about sending Lei Guihua back, Ning Qiang had already pulled Lei Guihua away.
"Oh my god! This is too fast."
Xiang Chu was speechless and had to drive the truck back to his home alone.
He parked the truck downstairs from the main office building and got out with the manuscript.
This time, Ning Caiwei was actually waiting for him at the stairs on the second floor.
She looked around and saw no one, covered her face and said:
"Xiang Chu! Let's break up."
"what?!"
Xiang Chu suddenly became confused, shaky and about to fall down the stairs.
"You idiot! I was just teasing you."
Ning Caiwei grabbed him and laughed so hard that tears almost came out.
However, she quickly let go of her hand to prevent her colleagues from seeing it.
Xiang Chu patted his chest and said with lingering fear:
"You're really testing my mental strength."
Ning Caiwei smiled and said, "How are you doing?"
"Reversal!"
Xiang Chu smiled bitterly and handed Niu Feng's manuscript to her.
Ning Caiwei read it through, returned the manuscript to him, gave him a thumbs up, and praised:
"That's great. Go up and show it to the director. Also, don't tell my uncle about this. He will definitely be unhappy. I'll wait for you in the equipment room later."
"understand!"
Xiang Chu gave her an extremely sunny smile and rushed up the stairs excitedly.
"Stupid look!"
Ning Caiwei looked at his back, her eyes full of love.
She was overjoyed after reading the manuscript. Dai Nong actually refused to admit that Dai Zhengtong was from the Military Intelligence Department. That meant that Dai Zhengtong would definitely be transferred out of the Military Intelligence Department. She and Xiang Chu would have one less big trouble.
This matter took such unexpected turns that I didn't expect this result.
Xiang Chu came to the door of Dainong's office, knocked on the door and reported in.
Dai Nong's room had been tidied up and he was now sitting at his desk drinking tea.
When he saw Xiang Chu's spirited look, he knew that the matter was settled, but he still asked leisurely:
"Xiao Xiang! How's it going?"
"Director! Everything will be done according to your instructions. This is the article that the reporter will publish in the Jinling Times tomorrow."
Xiang Chu stepped forward and placed the manuscript respectfully in front of him.
Dai Nong took it excitedly, read it attentively, and nodded:
"Well! You did a great job on this."
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
Xiang Chu said anxiously: "Master! I will take my leave first."
Dai Nong ordered: "Okay! You must pry open the mouth of that Japanese spy and achieve greater results."
"Yes!"
Xiang Chu saluted, turned around, opened the door and walked out.
At the door stood Ren Jie, leading a colonel officer with a briefcase and a serious expression.
Dai Nong saw this and hurried forward to shake hands with the colonel, saying in a very flattering voice:
"Supervisor Jiang! Why are you here?"
Xiang Chu didn't go far to listen to what the two of them had to say.
But I heard Supervisor Jiang sigh, "Acting Director! The Chairman has repeatedly stressed that we must control public opinion. I didn't expect you to cause such a big incident. Alas!"
"Inspector Jiang! The situation will soon be resolved. Here is the article that will be published in the Jinling Times tomorrow. Please take a look."
"Wow! Not bad, this is really a dramatic turn of events and a reversal. I admire you, Jiang! I admire you! Haha!"
Xiang Chu didn't listen and quickly ran to the telecommunications equipment room on the second floor.
The door was open and Ning Caiwei was pretending to organize her things.
Xiang Chu flashed into the room and turned around to close the door.
“Don’t close the door!”
Ning Caiwei hurriedly stopped, opened the door wide, and said softly,
"If we are discovered, our reputation will be ruined."
"Too!"
Xiang Chu simply leaned against the door and told what had just happened.
Ning Caiwei smiled and said, "This time, the Director won't embarrass us."
"I am glad that Dai Zhengtong, that evil, has been taken away."
Xiang Chu smiled, but said with some regret,
"Actually, I really shouldn't have helped Dai Nong to settle the matter with the reporter."
Ning Caiwei smiled and said, "You are worried that my uncle will be unhappy because you didn't get Dainong out of office. In fact, Dainong has a deep foundation and it can't be shaken at all. This matter was caused by us, so of course you have to solve it."
Xiang Chu said in astonishment: "Caiwei! I didn't expect you to have such vision."
Ning Caiwei thought for a moment and said with a wry smile, "You'd better go back to the Operations Department. If you catch a Japanese spy and don't give benefits to your direct superiors or report to them, they will definitely make things difficult for you."
Xiang Chu wanted to stay a little longer, so he smiled and said, "I've already said hello to Old Xie."
Ning Caiwei shook her head and said, "Your team leader surnamed Wang is too powerful. Xie Xingzhi can't play much of a role at all."
"I'm leaving!"
Xiang Chu turned to leave, but then turned around again, kissed her on the face, and then slipped away.
"Hate!"
Ning Caiwei scolded shyly.
Xiang Chu drove the big truck and returned to the operations department alone.
Xie Xingzhi happened to be standing at the door and couldn't help laughing:
"Brother Xiang! You went out with a whole group of people, why did you come back alone?"
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "I have sent them all out to continue catching Japanese spies."
"follow me!"
Xie Xingzhi took him to the office and said with a wry smile,
"Brother! You have completely offended the team leader."
