Chapter 97 Wu Jingzhong's Determination to Kill

Chapter 97 Wu Jingzhong's Determination to Kill
As soon as Lu Qiaoshan left, Wu Jingzhong picked up the phone and dialed the number:

"Chief Xiao, come here."

Soon, Xiao Guohua walked in: "Stationmaster, are you looking for me?"

"Guohua, how many years have you been with me?" Wu Jingzhong asked with a smile.

"I am a former Linli Class graduate. When you were the director of the Investigation Office of the Eighth War Zone Command in Lanzhou, I was the deputy captain of the inspection team.

“The team leader is Section Chief Liu.

"From now on, Chief Liu will select the troops to follow you to the Northeast District and Jinhai.

"It has been five years and 73 days."

Xiao Guohua stood straight and spoke meticulously.

"Five years and 73 days, you are somewhat qualified."

Wu Jingzhong glanced at this mature and steady subordinate and nodded with satisfaction.

Xiao Guohua has a sallow complexion and looks old.

In fact, he is one year younger than Yu Zecheng.

Wu Jingzhong raised his hand to signal him to take a seat, and said with a gentle smile:
"How's things at home? I heard from Secretary Hong that your wife gave birth to her second child.

“It’s hard to move around in the old building in Drum Tower.

“That’s just the way you are.

“He has a lot of experience, but he never fights for credit and works hard without complaint.”

"Stationmaster, it is a great blessing for me to serve you. How dare I talk about my merits?" Xiao Guohua lowered his head, not daring to look him in the eye.

Wu Jingzhong seems easy-going, but in fact he is decisive and ruthless.

Many killings have been made in Lanzhou and Northeast China.

He is famous for his firmness.

He is definitely not comparable to those clay Buddhas like Xu Yuanju and Zhou Yanghao.

That is to say, when he arrived in Jinhai, he became obsessed with making money.

It seems to be harmonious.

"This is for you. Liu Wensheng's small villa is just sitting there anyway.

“You take it and live in it.

"Here's some money. Use it to nourish your wife and children."

Wu Jingzhong opened the drawer and handed him a set of keys and an envelope of silver dollars.

"Webmaster, how can this be done?" Xiao Guohua was terrified.

"Hey!"

Wu Jingzhong patted his hands, frowned and pretended to be serious:

"Don't learn from Section Chief Liu.

"Now that we have been liberated, aren't we working so hard just to give our wives and children a better life?

"You can't delay your work, and you have to enjoy your life."

Xiao Guohua's legs were shaking a little and he didn't know how to answer.

“The child is left with the nanny and mother-in-law.

“I remember your wife went to school.

"Transfer her to the archives room as a clerk to collect documents." Wu Jingzhong ordered again.

“Thank you, Station Master.

“Thank you, Station Master.

"Students must pledge their loyalty to you until death."

Xiao Guohua's eyes turned red and he was so moved that he almost cried.

"alright.

"You are in the prime of life, and it is not a good idea to build houses every day.

"I have a mission for you. Secretly investigate Section Chief Liu."

Wu Jingzhong appreciated it for a while and then got down to business.

When Xiao Guohua heard this, he was startled and sat up straight immediately.

Wu Jingzhong tapped his shoulder, leaned in and whispered coldly:
“Keep your eyes on him.

“Especially with the Military Police Command.

“Who did you meet.

"Find out everything I said and did.

"I want to see the evidence in two days at most."

“Students understand.”

Xiao Guohua stood up and accepted the order solemnly.

……

Jinhai, police station.

It's drizzling today.

Yu Zecheng, holding a black umbrella and wearing a brown windbreaker, ran straight to the lobby of the police station.

"Hello, Director Yu." Someone greeted.

"What Director?"

"Now it's time to call Secretary Yu."

"What do you call them? They are all your friends." Yu Zecheng said politely and went straight into the inspector's office.

Inspector Huang was reinstated.

Without him.

Whether Jinhai is in chaos or not, it is up to Old Huang to decide.

The local elders have to take care of all the thieves and all kinds of people among the people.

Now that military mediation is imminent, the pressure on public security is enormous.

As soon as Wu Jingzhong's anger subsided, Li Hanyuan immediately began to worship the deity again.

"Inspector Huang." Yu Zecheng walked in and looked around.

"I checked, no ears."

Huang Zhong closed the door and motioned for him to sit down.

"Very good.

"Is there any recent mission from the organization?"

Yu Zecheng said while holding the teacup.

"Old Yu, I'm not going to hide the truth.

"With Manager Qiu gone, I am at a loss.

“The people at the Beiping Traffic Station are very alert, especially after the incidents with Cao Qingming and Manager Qiu.

“Ma Hansan went crazy and tore at the underground organization.

"The organization is neither contacting nor giving up on our Jinhai Line.

"It's still a silent screening."

Huang Zhong sighed helplessly.

“I understand.

“Although Manager Qiu was able to survive, he had to go to the torture room and give a list according to discipline.

"It's completely reasonable for the higher-ups to have concerns."

Yu Zecheng nodded in comfort.

"Now a lot of important information cannot be sent out or conveyed.

“I still got the information from District Committee No. 1.

“We have people around Xiong Shihui, and they can confirm that they have their own ideas regarding the Double Tenth negotiations.

"Dai Li was in charge, while Mao Renfeng and Shen Zui were in charge of planning.

“The person who did it is most likely Ye Zhixiang.

"Mr. Wu is said to have issued a top-level directive, asking us to do whatever it takes to crush the enemy's plot."

Huang Zhong said with a serious expression.

“Could it be a rumor?

“Now Stalin and Truman’s special ambassadors are already in the mountain city.

"Jiang is undoubtedly committing suicide by doing this."

Yu Zecheng shook his head.

"When the Japanese invaders came right under his nose, didn't he say that he had to stabilize the country before he could fight against foreign enemies?

"Chiang has always had ill intentions towards us.

“It is better to believe it exists than to believe it does not exist.

"Our mission is to use all resources and means to collect and screen intelligence."

Huang Zhong sighed.

“It’s very troublesome now, Liu Xiong is still here, and I can’t go back.

“Besides.

“Wu Jingzhong has become suspicious of me regarding Shopkeeper Qiu’s matter, it would be better if Hong Zhi was here.

"He has no background. Old Wu really trusts him."

Yu Zecheng held the teacup in his hand, missing his younger brother terribly.

"Let's take it one step at a time." Huang Zhong said.

"Okay, if there is anything, I will come directly to the bureau to find you." Yu Zecheng nodded.

back home.

Cuiping has already prepared dinner.

It was still fried pork with peppers and a plate of cold dishes.

The food is too salty.

"Did you do this on purpose?" Yu Zecheng washed his hands, sat down and picked up a piece of food with chopsticks.

“Dinner!
"You have to eat more steamed buns to have strength.

"Look at you, you look so gloomy all the time, and you are much thinner than when I came here."

Cuiping curled her lips and handed him a big steamed bun.

Yu Zecheng didn't take it. He put down his chopsticks, stared at her and sighed.

"I wonder why you always like to spoil other people's fun?
"He makes faces and sighs all day long.

"How can you do your job well and lead a team?

"No wonder Secretary Hong said you were unlucky?

"With your condition, it would be strange if bad luck didn't come after you."

When Cuiping saw his dead look, she became angry.

"Did you buy a newspaper today?"

Yu Zecheng picked up the newspaper on the table and asked.

"I bought it, so what? This is also against discipline." Cuiping said unhappily with her head raised.

“This is Taihang Mountain Daily.

“Newspapers in the Red Zone.

“The Jinhai Daily has a department that prints this kind of newspaper for the Military Control Commission to monitor.

"Section Chief Li from the Land and Water Inspection Department.

"His wife lost three teeth because of Liu Xiong buying a newspaper.

“I still ask the stationmaster to save the people.

"Otherwise, that would be the second Little Five."

Yu Zecheng looked at her and explained with a frown.

"Cui Ping.

"Xiao Wuzi, you saw it with your own eyes, don't you realize the cruelty of the struggle?

"We can't make mistakes in this line of work. If the enemy gets a hold of us, we'll lose our lives..."

Perhaps because he has been under too much pressure recently, Yu Zecheng's eyes were red and he was a little emotional.

"I was wrong.

"I was wrong.

"I just saw a picture of Mr. Mao in the newspaper and wanted to know what was going on."

Cuiping curled her lips and lowered her voice to apologize to Yu Zecheng.

"Let's eat." Yu Zecheng picked up the porridge and took a sip.

"We'll be okay, right?"

Cuiping asked in a low voice when she saw that he was no longer angry.

"Won't.

“The newspaper seller is called Mi Zhiguo.

“Secretary Hong and I saved his father.

"But you can't go to that newsstand anymore." Yu Zecheng warned lightly.

"Well, what does it say on it?

“Mr. Mao’s.

"Read it to me."

Cuiping felt relieved when she heard this and asked, pointing at the newspaper.

“I’m going to Shancheng to negotiate with the chairman.

"We may have to form a coalition government in the future," said Yu Zecheng.

Seeing that she wanted to ask more questions, Yu Zecheng put down his chopsticks, picked up the steamed bun, and walked upstairs:

“Don’t put so much salt in cooking next time.

"The family is not short of money."

"You are not short of money, but our team in the mountains can't even afford steamed buns."

Cuiping glared at him and slurped the porridge.

After a while, Yu Zecheng came down carrying a small box:
"I'll give you a favor."

"What's the matter?" Cuiping was overjoyed.

"I'm going to the stationmaster's house tonight.

“The day after tomorrow is the stationmaster’s birthday.

“If everything goes well, we may have to go back to Tsukai Station.

"Send a gift first to ease the relationship."

Yu Zecheng ordered.

“Why don’t you go?

"I'm so annoyed with them. It's only been a few days since Xiaowuzi's seventh day of death." Cuiping grumbled in dissatisfaction.

“It’s not appropriate for me to go.

"Comrade Cuiping, this is a mission."

Yu Zecheng did not allow any rebuttal and placed the box in front of her.

"I understand." Cuiping said.

Yu Zecheng gave some more instructions and Cuiping wrote them down one by one.

……

Half past nine in the evening.

Villa No. 1 Changde Road.

"Rui Rui, as long as the money is enough, it's fine.

"Don't worry, Mom, Secretary Hong will take care of you.

"Don't treat them unfairly.

“He is there.

"What strange noises are you making, kid?

"Is Jianhua back? It's so late, it's not good for a man and a woman to be together alone, Jianhua will be suspicious.

"Hurry up and ask Secretary Hong to come back..."

Before Mei Qiuju finished speaking, the other party hung up the phone.

"Old Wu, Ruirui said that Secretary Hong helped her recover hundreds of thousands of dollars.

"I also got a big house that's next to the Governor." It's already been renovated.

“She also asked us to go to Xiangdao and live for a while.

“I never thought that we would live with the Governor.

"Xiao Hong is just capable."

Mei Qiuju walked up to Wu Jingzhong and smiled as brightly as a flower.

"What Governor? It's the Governor of Hong Kong."

Wu Jingzhong knew the inside story long ago, and he smiled faintly after flipping through the newspaper:
"Xiao Hong has inherited my true teachings.

"This matter of Xiangdao is not a problem for him.

"Without the debt collector, we can sleep peacefully."

It would have been fine if she hadn't said anything, but as soon as she did, Mei Qiuju pouted and started to nag:

"What's the use of learning your true teachings?

"I'm so scared by you that I don't even dare to go home."

"Here it comes again." Wu Jingzhong frowned.

"correct.

"I just called and heard that Ruirui seemed to be having problems.

"You said it's so late and Zhiyou is still staying in Ruirui's room, I hope these two kids are okay.

“Zhiyou is a well-known playboy.

"It won't be nice if our relatives know about it."

Mei Qiuju changed her mind and said.

It's good to be together. After all, Su Jianhua fed the turtle, so this time he really became the son-in-law of the dragon... Wu Jingzhong was secretly happy, and said indifferently:

"Why do you care so much about young people's affairs?

“Just having money is enough.

"Your only task is to get them back to celebrate my birthday."

"Happy birthday, happy birthday.

"Take care of that mad dog first."

Mei Qiuju turned her head and went to the bedroom.

dong dong!

The door rang.

"Stationmaster, Madam, Mrs. Yu wants to see you." The voice of the guard came from outside the door.

“Cui Ping?
"Hurry, let her in." Mei Qiuju was overjoyed.

"What's the hurry?
"Search carefully."

Wu Jingzhong snorted coldly.

He stood up, took out a pistol from the drawer and put it on his waist.

This woman is suspected of being a guerrilla.

It would be troublesome if someone came in and shot us secretly.

Cuiping walked in carrying a box.

Seeing the stationmaster, she glared at him and walked straight towards the lady.

"shrew."

Wu Jingzhong cursed inwardly and went into the inner room with his hands behind his back.

"Sister Mei." As soon as they met, Cuiping took her hand and smiled.

“Big sister.

"Why are you here? You said that it's hard for me to find someone I like, but you don't even come to see me.

"I don't like Mrs. Ma and her friends."

Mei Qiuju pulled her and sighed with emotion.

"Isn't this my old Yu, who is thinking about his old leader's birthday?

"You are too embarrassed to come here, so you have to let me come.

"Sister Mei, to be honest, I don't want to come either."

Cuiping smiled, then her expression became gloomy.

"I know.

“I am also very sad about your eldest brother’s matter.

"Liu Xiong did it secretly, and your eldest brother didn't know about it.

"Alas, there are all kinds of birds in a big forest.

“He’s also a difficult team to lead.

"I've been nagging him about this so much that his ears are now callused."

Mei Qiuju hurriedly comforted her in a gentle voice.

"Sister Mei, Zechengdu told us.

“I don’t blame you or the stationmaster.

"Otherwise I can't come."

Cuiping smiled with relief.

“Go back and talk to Zecheng.

"Old Wu keeps nagging him every day. Now that the army has been transferred, he can't turn around the people under his command.

"Let Zecheng come back quickly."

Mei Qiuju held her hand and felt close to her from the bottom of her heart.

"If he wants to come back, that mad dog will bite him again.

"Secretary Hong was almost electrocuted, just like your own son."

Cuiping shook her head in fear.

"Girl, we are not afraid.

"Old Wu doesn't intend to spoil Liu this time."

Mei Qiuju said, and whispered in her ear:
"We have someone investigating, saying there is a connection with the Central Bureau of Investigation.

"Wait.

"It's just these few days."

Cuiping was delighted: "Really? That's great.

“Finally, I can avenge my little Wuzi.

“Zecheng also wants to come back.

"Mayor Zhang has several drinking parties every day, so you have to drink.

"To be honest with you, it's only been less than a month and I've gotten drunk a few times.

“Last time I drank it I vomited blood and almost died in the hospital.

"He is a man who is too proud to live up to his reputation. He will keep silent unless the stationmaster speaks up."

Cuiping whispered.

"Hey, you said these two dull guys are not as good as us.

“Go back and tell Zecheng.

"I agree. Let him go back to Jinhai Station to work tomorrow." Sister Mei raised her head and made the promise.

"Thank you, Sister Mei." Cuiping was overjoyed and hugged Mei Qiuju.

"correct.

“Zecheng said he got it from Mu Liancheng.

"This is a painting by some emperor of the Northern Song Dynasty, and it is said that one foot of it is worth a mansion in your home.

"I don't understand, but I brought it to you anyway."

Cuiping pointed at the box.

"Zecheng is polite.

"Old Wu, Zecheng brought you something."

Mei Qiuju shouted loudly inside.

"Who cares?"

Wu Jingzhong's voice came from inside.

"whee.

“He likes to pretend.

“Come here, big sister, the wife of the Scoutmaster in Hangzhou recently sent me a batch of fine silk.

"Pick a few and make some clothes."

Mei Qiuju covered her mouth and smiled, then pulled Cuiping into the inner room.

The two chatted for about an hour before Cuiping left with some fine silk.

As soon as she left, Wu Jingzhong rushed out of the room, opened the box swiftly, and began to study it with a magnifying glass:

"Tsk tsk, this is an authentic work of Emperor Huizong of Song."

"You're such a hypocrite. Didn't you say you didn't want it?" Mei Qiuju snorted with a pout.

“Good job.

"That's fine, I still like it better.

"It's time to bring him back."

Wu Jingzhong smiled and praised his wife.

Why would he nag his wife about such a secret as Liu Xiong's?

Aren’t you just waiting for Cuiping?

Otherwise, both sides will be stuck and no one can get down.

……

Yuezhou, winery.

"It's all your fault. You had to tinker with it. My mother seemed to have heard the noise."

Wu Ruirui snuggled in Hong Zhiyou's arms and complained.

"Blame me?

"It's obviously you who can't control your throat, okay?" Hong Zhiyou said with a smile.

"Hateful." Wu Ruirui snorted.

“I’m not afraid even if I know.

"You're a widower, I'm unmarried, isn't it normal for a man and a woman to have some feelings?"

Hong Zhiyou kissed her.

Is there anything that can be hidden from Old Wu?
The fact that Old Wu didn't call personally meant that he tacitly approved of him and Ruirui being together.

"Go to bed early. We'll go back to Jinhai tomorrow morning."

As he said this, he pulled the quilt up.

"Didn't you say we were going to wait for Liu Xiongga before going back?" Wu Ruirui was puzzled.

"almost."

Hong Zhiyou smiled and crawled deeper into the bed.

"Oh, you're going to die.

"Hate."

……

The next day.

Wu Jingzhong took the secret passage and came directly to the interrogation room.

Chen Genbao was lying on the electric chair, covered in blood.

"Webmaster." Lu Qiaoshan stood up quickly.

"Have you confessed?" Wu Jingzhong asked.

“Yes.

"He admitted that he was assigned by Section Chief Liu to monitor Hong Zhiyou and took photos."

Land bridge mountain road.

"Where's the camera?" Wu Jingzhong asked.

“He said he sold the camera and film to someone else.

“Introduced by a middleman.

"No need to think, it must be the Central Bureau of Investigation." Lu Qiaoshan said without hesitation.

"Stationmaster, no, no..."

Chen Genbao wanted to explain that his camera was stolen.

But as soon as he opened his mouth, Lao Wu punched him twice, and he swallowed the punch back.

"Are you sure it's Liu Xiong?" Wu Jingzhong asked.

"Sure.

"The confession record, he left his fingerprints on it." Lu Qiaoshan showed the interrogation record and said seriously.

"very good."

Wu Jingzhong nodded, without any doubt at all.

"Stationmaster, how should we deal with Chen Genbao?" Lu Qiaoshan asked.

"Colluding with the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, follow the family rules." Wu Jingzhong ordered coldly.

"Old Five, come with me."

Lu Qiaoshan gladly accepted the order.

With a wave of his hand, Lao Wu and his two men dragged Chen Genbao out.

Follow the house rules.

That means keep it secret and just say "biu".

"Stationmaster, woo, woo..."

Chen Genbao struggled and sobbed.

Wu Jingzhong stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes extremely cold.

It's like looking at an ant whose death is not worth a pity.

Back in the stationmaster's office, he picked up the interrogation materials and put them in the drawer.

Xiao Guohua just walked in.

"Any news?" Wu Jingzhong asked with a gentle smile.

“Stationmaster, I took this photo yesterday.

"Section Chief Liu..."

Xiao Guohua hesitated to speak and handed over the photo.

in the photo.

Liu Xiong and Ma Kui appeared in the teahouse.

The other is a photo of Liu Xiong and Tang Wu meeting.

"By the way, webmaster, there is something I don't know whether I should tell you or not." Xiao Guohua said in a deep voice.

"Speak!" Wu Jingzhong said.

"Before Secretary Hong left, he told me a piece of news.

"Captain Ma has been investigating the matter between you and Mu Liancheng. According to Mi Zhiguo, there are also photos of you and Mu Liancheng dating." Xiao Guohua said.

"What!" Wu Jingzhong was shocked.

He suddenly understood why Ma Kui offended Hu Die and made Mrs. Chiang angry, but was still appointed as an "imperial envoy" by the headquarters.

This person is clearly a chess piece used by Mao Renfeng against him.

Boss Dai tacitly agreed to the investigation of himself.

Even more terrifying.

His most trusted brother and old subordinate Liu Xiong actually colluded with Ma Kui in private.

This is not a way to cut off your income.

But it’s about your own life!

For a moment, Wu Jingzhong's heart sank.
