Chapter 137 In Danger
Xiang Chu sat in the chair, crossed his legs and ordered: "Batian! It's not a good idea to tie these two men to the ground. You should hang them up on a wooden frame. It will give them a sense of ceremony."
"That's right! Haha!"
Wang Batian hurriedly accepted the order, feeling that he could not handle it alone, so he asked,
"Team Leader! Can I get a few more people to join us?"
"of course can!"
Xiang Chu nodded slightly.
Wang Batian walked out of the interrogation room, and the tall man suddenly said in a low voice:
"Sir! I guess you are Comrade Phoenix."
Xiang Chu was so frightened that his pores seemed to explode. He felt that the person who came was not friendly.
He pretended not to hear, glanced at the interrogation record, and said calmly, "This team leader really hopes that he can have the ability of the 'Phoenix'. Tell me! What are your names?"
The tall man was startled when he heard him speak, and quickly changed his words: "Sorry! I recognized the wrong person."
Xiang Chu stood up, picked up the whip on the wall, and swung it and yelled: "Red Party diehard! You didn't even tell me your name, and you turned around and asked this team leader, you are looking for death!"
"Stop! Stop hitting me, I said."
After several whippings, the tall man wailed.
Xiang Chu stopped whipping him and shouted breathlessly, "Tell me! What's your name?"
The tall man still stared at Xiang Chu intently, trying to find his flaws, and said in a trembling voice: "My name is Zhuang Haifei, Zhengxiong's neighbor. I said this because I think you look very similar to that 'Phoenix'."
"Don't mention that murderous guy from the Red Party to this team leader."
Xiang Chu roared loudly without any hesitation or nervous expression.
At this moment, he was extremely shocked. This Zhuang Haifei's code name was "Canglang" and the numerical code was particularly early. He must have seen him somewhere.
Fortunately, I was young at that time, and after several years of experience and growth, I have changed a lot both physically and in terms of quality and temperament.
At this time, Wang Batian came in with an interrogator, and the two of them worked together to put Zhuang Haifei and Liu Kecheng on the wooden frame.
The interrogators left after they finished their work. Wang Batian said with a smile:
"Team leader! How about this?"
"Yes! Very good."
Xiang Chu smiled, folded his arms, and complained,
"Why is it so cold down there?"
Wang Batian was also cold, and said hurriedly: "Please wait a moment, I will get some charcoal."
After saying this, he ran out of the interrogation room.
“Remember to get more!”
Xiang Chu gave a warning, picked up a cigarette, pointed at the short man and said:
"What should I call this person?"
The short man remained silent, and was naturally observing whether Xiang Chu was the "Phoenix".
He was quite smart and said with a smile: "My name is Liu Kecheng, and I am also from the same hometown as Zhengxiong. We were classmates in elementary school."
Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Really? Then why did you bring people to search your classmate's house? Are you a thief?"
"No! We are not thieves."
Liu Kecheng said hurriedly. Seeing Xiang Chu's sharp eyes, he could not get away with it, so he could only smile and say,
"Sir! I heard from my family that Zhengxiong found a beautiful wife named Hua Aimei. Hua Aimei was also our elementary school classmate. I know she was an underground party member, so I thought Zhengxiong must be one too."
He called him Zhengxiong all the time with a smile on his face, seeming very friendly.
"Hua Aimei! Hmm! This name is interesting."
Xiang Chu nodded, blew out a smoke ring, and shook his head.
"But my subordinate Liu Zhengxiong is not married and has no girlfriend. The Hua Aimei he told you about must have been just a 'playing house' in elementary school. She can't be said to be his wife at all."
Liu Kecheng smiled and said, "Sir! I know you are afraid that your subordinates are Red Party members and will be implicated, but Zhengxiong is a very sentimental person. If a pair of shoes is worn out, there must be photos and love letters of Hua Aimei on them."
This person actually knew Liu Zhengxiong so well that Xiang Chu's palms suddenly broke into sweat.
Xiang Chu pointed at Zhuang Haifei and said, "What about you? Tell me everything you know about the 'Phoenix'. I've always wanted to catch that guy."
Zhuang Haifei thought for a while before saying, "Sir! I heard from the doctor who delivered him that there is a red mole on the chest of the Phoenix."
As this guy spoke, his eyes were still fixed on Xiang Chu's chest.
Needless to say, he most likely still thought that Xiang Chu was the "Phoenix".
Xiang Chu has always been proud of this red mole, and this mole seems to be closely related to his super sixth sense, so he is reluctant to remove it.
Now he has become the key to being pointed out by a traitor and exposing himself.
Xiang Chu remained calm and shook his head, saying, "The feature you mentioned is useless. The Phoenix is so high and mighty that no one can strip him naked to find his mole. Oh, what other features does he have?"
"It's just that he's very good-looking, just like you, sir..."
Zhuang Haifei stopped talking halfway.
"Here comes the brazier!"
Wang Batian’s shouting was heard.
Xiang Chu took out a pill from his pocket, put it into the cup, and poured a glass of water.
Wang Batian placed the brazier in front of Xiang Chu's feet and said breathlessly:
"Team leader! This way you won't be cold."
Xiang Chu picked up the cup and shook it to make the pill dissolve quickly, and said with concern:
"Batian! You've worked so hard, have a glass of water."
"Thank you, team leader!"
Wang Batian took the cup of water and drank it all.
Xiang Chu continued to ask: "Do you two know any underground party members in Nanjing?"
The two men were very hesitant, and Xiang Chu gave Wang Batian a sharp look.
Wang Batian rushed forward and started punching and kicking.
The two cried out in pain: "Stop hitting me! I said."
"Batian! Come over here and warm yourself by the fire."
Xiang Chu patted the big chair beside him.
"okay!"
Wang Batian was tired after a long day and hurriedly "got fat" in the chair.
Xiang Chu guessed that he had taken sleeping pills, and after the activities just now and the warm charcoal fire, he fell asleep quickly.
Liu Kecheng said first: "Sir! I know a boss named He, but he was beaten to death by the previous captain of the Party Affairs Office. I don't know the others."
Zhuang Haifei followed up and said, "Sir! I know the father of the girl who followed you today. His name is Yu Niansheng, and he is a high-ranking member of the Nanjing underground party."
Xiang Chu's heart trembled, and he asked anxiously: "That girl is my fiancée. Does anyone in the Party Affairs Office know this news?"
Zhuang Haifei shook his head and said, "I haven't told the people in the Party Affairs Office yet. Captain Feng is too cruel. I dare not tell him anything I am not sure about, not even the red mole of the Phoenix. Besides, when I saw that girl before, she was still very young, not as pretty as she is now."
"Oh my god, the daughter of the Red Party actually came close to me!"
Xiang Chu pretended to be extremely shocked. At this time, Wang Batian was already drowsy.
Xiang Chu stood up, pretended to think, walked to the wall, threw a piece of wood into the brazier under the oil pan, and felt that the fire was not big enough, so he simply dipped it in oil and put it into the brazier. The smoke filled the air and blew towards Zhang Kecheng and the others.
He quickly took out three incense sticks from his arms and threw them into the brazier.
This incense is a specially made exclusive incense that can make people fall asleep as long as these two people smell it.
In order to make them fall asleep faster, Xiang Chu said in a very gentle tone: "You two may not know that our Military Intelligence Department and Party Affairs Department are like water and fire. They always say that we only know how to catch Japanese spies, but not the Red Party members. Today, with your confessions, things have taken a turn for the better. I want to take you two to our..."
He talked incessantly, not giving them a chance to interrupt. Soon, the two of them drooped their heads and fell into a deep sleep.
Xiang Chu quickly closed the door of the interrogation room, took out the silver needles, and repeatedly injected acupuncture into the heads of Zhuang Haifei and Liu Kecheng.
These two people must not be kept, otherwise himself, Yu Xiaowan, Liu Zhengxiong and Yu Niansheng would all be doomed.
Today he was going to use a double insurance against these two traitors. He would use the needle to damage the nerves and also create a charcoal poisoning incident so that Feng Shurong would bring back two more vegetative patients.
After the acupuncture, he quickly got some wet wood, put it in the brazier under the oil pan, and poured some boiling water on it.
He walked out of the door, leaving it a crack to ensure that Wang Batian would not die from carbon monoxide poisoning.
Today was really like dancing on the edge of a knife. Xiang Chu lit a cigarette, walked out of the basement and came to Zhang Changsheng's room.
Zhang Changsheng was dozing off on a chair. Seeing him coming over, he smiled and asked, "How's it going? Did you find out anything?"
Xiang Chu sat on the sofa and said with a wry smile: "The two underground members of the Red Party have already surrendered to the Party Affairs Office. I just asked a few questions and came up. It's really cold down there. It's warmer here."
After he finished speaking, he closed his eyes and rested, then he sat, then lay down, and finally fell asleep.
"Good brother, you've worked hard! Have a good sleep."
Zhang Changsheng stood up and covered him with a blanket.
