Chapter 89: Unafraid of Fire and Sword
Xiang Chu sat down next to Li Daguang, patted his shoulder, and imitated Feng Shurong's voice and said:
"Da Guang! What is the name of the place where the Red Party underground members are imprisoned?"
Liu Zhengxiong's heart was in his throat and his hand holding the pen was shaking.
Xiang Chu rolled his eyes at him, and when he saw Li Daguang moving his head, he said with a smile:
"You kid! I want to get that girl called Hua Aimei to you, forget it."
Liu Zhengxiong glared at Xiang Chu fiercely. He didn't expect this kid to say that.
Li Daguang said intermittently: "No. 19 Ninghai Road...soon...tomorrow morning...Central Military Prison."
The Central Military Prison was built in 1930 and is located at Jiangdongmen. It is the first of the four major prisons of the White Party in Nanjing and has persecuted and killed countless revolutionary patriots.
The prison is extremely strict, with 13 locks from the gate to the cells, and walls around it that are 7 meters high and guarded by soldiers with live ammunition. If the captured people are transferred there, it will be difficult to rescue them.
Xiang Chu asked what he wanted and felt relieved. Seeing that Liu Zhengxiong wanted to take note, he shook his head at him.
Liu Zhengxiong stopped writing in a hurry. He could only keep the information concerning our party in mind.
Xiang Chu continued in Feng Shurong's tone:
"Da Guang! If you can find out where the Japanese spies are based in Nanjing, we will be rich."
Li Daguang: "Xiaguan... Wharf... No. 44... Warehouse."
Liu Zhengxiong hurriedly wrote it down.
Xiang Chu: "Do you know who else is a Japanese spy?"
Li Daguang: "Li Daguang."
At this moment, footsteps were heard at the stairs.
Xiang Chu hurriedly stood up and gave him several injections in the head.
Then quickly take out all the silver needles and put them in your pocket.
"how's it going?"
Cai Huawen and two members of the action team carrying lunch boxes walked in.
"Captain Xiang has found out everything!"
Liu Zhengxiong said excitedly, handing the interrogation record to Cai Huawen.
Cai Huawen read out: "Warehouse No. 44 at Xiaguan Wharf! Great. Two captains! You guys eat, I'll report to the director right away."
"it is good!"
Xiang Chu nodded, took the lunch box handed over by a member of the action team, and instructed,
"You two put this Japanese spy on a stake and tie him up."
"Yes!"
Two members of the action team rushed forward and tied the dazed Li Daguang to a wooden stake.
Xiang Chu saw Liu Zhengxiong still looking at Li Daguang worriedly. He smiled and said:
"Captain Liu! Come back to my office for dinner and we can have a few drinks."
After saying this, he walked out of the interrogation room on his own.
"You two should keep an eye on it. No unauthorized persons are allowed to approach."
Liu Zhengxiong gave the order loudly, turned around and followed him out.
Xiang Chu himself did not expect that he would be able to obtain the detention location of the arrested comrades from Li Daguang so quickly.
Moreover, No. 19 Ningde Road is located in the downtown area, not in the military jurisdiction, so there is no need to borrow Ning Changde's car with military license plates.
He walked into the office thinking, and Liu Zhengxiong followed him in and said with a smile:
"Brother Xiang! Give me the letter."
Xiang Chu closed the door and scolded in a low voice: "Comrade Huamei! Is that an ordinary letter? As an old comrade, how can you not be vigilant at all?"
Liu Zhengxiong lowered his head and said, "I know I was wrong. Give me the letters and diary and I will destroy them immediately."
Xiang Chu took the diary out of the cowhide envelope, took out the love letter and put it in the diary, then stretched out his hand and said:
"I can give it to you! Take the money! The thicker the better."
Liu Zhengxiong's face suddenly changed and he said angrily:
"You, you are too outrageous."
Seeing that he was puzzled, Xiang Chu handed him the diary and said with a wry smile:
"Forget it! I'll just cushion it for you."
After saying this, he took out all the money from his pockets and threw them all, including a small yellow croaker, into a cowhide envelope.
Liu Zhengxiong then understood Xiang Chu's intention and hurriedly took out some crumpled French currency from his pocket.
"No! Even if Li Daguang found such shabby money from your house, he wouldn't put it in a cowhide envelope."
Xiang Chu shook his head, pointed to the phone on the desk, and smiled.
"Do you believe it? A phone call will be coming soon asking me to hand over this cowhide envelope."
"I do not believe!"
Liu Zhengxiong said without hesitation.
"Actually, I don't believe it either! Let's eat."
Xiang Chu agreed, picked up the lunch box and started eating.
Liu Zhengxiong stepped forward, put a chicken leg into his lunch box, and said with a smile:
"Here! This chicken leg is for you."
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "If you have something to say, just say it. Revolutionary comrades don't need to flatter or curry favor with us."
Liu Zhengxiong suppressed his smile and asked anxiously, "Can you take me to rescue Ai Mei and the others?"
"no!"
Xiang Chu shook his head and pointed to the basement.
"I gave Li Daguang an injection to make him insane, but it's not 100% effective. If he wakes up and exposes us, we'll be finished.
Therefore, you must stay in the interrogation room to prevent Feng Shurong from coming to snatch people or interrogate them."
"OK then!"
Liu Zhengxiong nodded helplessly.
At this moment, the phone on the desk rang.
Xiang Chu picked up the phone and heard Cai Huawen's voice:
"Xiang Chu! Why are you sitting here with Li Daguang's cowhide envelope?"
"Yes!"
Xiang Chu hung up the phone, raised the cowhide envelope, and said with a wry smile,
"Lao Liu! I was right after all."
Liu Zhengxiong said worriedly: "But can we get away with this little money?"
"You are poor as hell, no less."
Xiang Chu smiled and held the cowhide envelope.
He picked up another chicken leg from Liu Zhengxiong's lunch box and went out.
"Isn't there any more for you?"
Liu Zhengxiong shouted loudly.
Xiang Chu walked out of the office building and a cool breeze blew in his face.
The last few leaves on the plane tree have also fallen.
The sky is gloomy, as if a rain is brewing.
Xiang Chu was thinking all the way about how to rescue the 30 comrades.
Before he knew it, he had reached the door of Dai Nong's office.
The office door was open, and Feng Shurong and Cai Huawen were in the room.
"Director! This is Li Daguang's cowhide envelope."
Xiang Chu hurried forward and placed the cowhide envelope in front of Dai Nong.
Dai Nong picked it up and looked at it, wondering:
“It’s all money?”
Xiang Chu pretended to be confused and said hurriedly:
"Deputy! I didn't take a single cent of the money here."
Dai Nong threw the cowhide envelope to him and said with a smile:
"Take it! Consider it a reward for you."
"Thank you, Virgo. I'm rich now. Hehe!"
Xiang Chu took it with a smile, showing that he was extremely greedy for money.
Feng Shurong felt that Xiang Chu and Dainong had a very good relationship, so he did not dare to question the cowhide envelope and said anxiously, "Director! I request that Li Daguang be brought to our department's interrogation room for interrogation."
Cai Huawen was afraid that he would steal the credit, so he hurriedly said, "Director! We have already found out the truth and we know the Japanese spy base. There is no need to interrogate him at all."
Dai Nong was worried that Feng Shurong might kill him, so he nodded and said, "Yes! No need to interrogate or follow him, just act decisively. Xiang Chu! Take your men to Xiaguan right away, yes! That Japanese spy base you know, and arrest the Japanese spy."
When he got to the crucial point, he quickly changed his words. It can be seen that after Wang Fengguang, he was no longer at ease with Feng Shurong.
"Yes!"
Xiang Chu hurriedly accepted the order, turned around and looked at Cai Huawen and said,
"Chief! Can you transfer some of Captain Liu's men to me?"
Cai Huawen smiled and said, "You can transfer whoever you want to the Operations Department for the task assigned by the Director."
"Thank you, Mr. Ke!"
Xiang Chu turned and walked out of the office.
He came to the door of the telecommunications department and knocked.
Seeing Ning Caiwei alone in the room, he turned around, closed the door, and said:
"Caiwei! The director asked me to go to Xiaguan Wharf to catch Japanese spies. Let's go to No. 19 Ninghai Road tonight to rescue the arrested comrades. Oh, right! No. 19 Ninghai Road is in the downtown area, not a military restricted area, so you don't have to borrow your uncle's car."
"it is good!"
Ning Caiwei nodded heavily, but said worriedly,
"No. 19 Ninghai Road is a private prison set up by the Party Affairs Office. It is heavily guarded."
Xiang Chu said firmly:
"Don't be afraid! Even if it's through mountains of swords and seas of fire, we must rescue our comrades!"
Ning Caiwei looked into his eyes and said firmly:
"Follow you! I am not afraid of fire and sword."
