Chapter 144 Manchurian Fox
Xiang Chu first instructed Sun Ji:
"Sun Ji! Wait here. I'll call you at the gate if anything happens."
"understand!"
Sunji nodded hastily.
Xiang Chu turned around and got into Zheng Longzheng's car, and said anxiously:
"Lao Zheng! I'm looking for you. Drive the car to a secluded place quickly."
"What's so mysterious?"
Zheng Longzheng suppressed his smile and drove the car to a street away from the gate.
Xiang Chu didn't want to beat around the bush, so he took out the photo and said in a deep voice:
"Your girlfriend is a Japanese spy, codenamed 'Manchurian Fox'!"
"You are talking nonsense. How could Long Yue be with this officer..."
Zheng Longzheng didn't believe it at all, but when he took a look at the photo, he was stunned.
Xiang Chu put away the photo and whispered, "This officer is called Lin Haifeng. We have followed him for a long time. We also caught Long Yue's superior Japanese spy. Tell me, how much information did you provide to Long Yue?"
"I, I didn't offer it to her either, I didn't know she was..."
Zheng Longzheng was timid by nature, and he was so frightened that he was sweating profusely and was evasive in his response.
Xiang Chu shook his head and said, "If you don't tell the truth, I can't save you. You can just wait to be arrested, tortured, and ruined."
Zheng Longzheng grabbed Xiang Chu's hand and cried, "Old Xiang! You have to save me. We had the best relationship in the military academy. You helped me so much, not just this time. I will definitely remember your kindness."
Xiang Chu nodded and comforted him, "Don't worry! I will definitely save you, but you have to tell the truth so that I can clear you from this Japanese spy case. Otherwise, it will be too late to arrest you tomorrow."
Zheng Longzheng took his hand back and recalled: "I provided Long Yue with a distribution map of the logistics oil depots and ammunition depots in the Nanjing area. She said she wanted to do the oil and ammunition business."
"You are so lustful! Who dares to do this kind of business?"
Xiang Chu shouted at him, and seeing Zheng Longzheng's pale face, he consoled him,
"Don't worry too much. Let me think of a solution."
After he finished speaking, he fell into deep thought, and asked after a while:
"Old Zheng! Is Long Yue a Japanese or a Chinese?"
"We are the countrymen!"
Zheng Longzheng said affirmatively, and paused.
"She said her family was in Harbin, and she fled to Nanjing, where she was alone and helpless."
Xiang Chu thought for a moment and said, "First, ask for a leave from work, then ask her out for a meeting, and tell her that you have obtained very important intelligence."
"No need to ask for leave. Almost no one in our department cares about us."
Zheng Longzheng shook his head, paused, and said worriedly,
"Old Xiang! She's a Japanese spy. What if..."
Xiang Chu said angrily: "What are you afraid of? Don't you know my skills? I can keep you safe. Besides, you have no way out now, otherwise your family will be implicated."
Zheng Longzheng said helplessly: "Okay! I'll call her and go to Confucius Temple."
Xiang Chu shook his head and said, "No! Change the place, otherwise it will alert her."
Zheng Longzheng thought for a moment and said, "The Northeast Tea House, maybe. She likes to go there."
"Okay! Let's go to the Northeast Tea House."
Xiang Chu nodded heavily and put a piece of incense into the handkerchief that had knocked Kong Ling unconscious earlier.
He must first subdue this "Manchurian fox" and then make plans for the next step.
Doing so would be tantamount to shielding Zheng Longzheng, and he was taking a huge risk.
After some work, Zheng Longzheng made an appointment to meet Long Yue at the "Northeast Tea House".
Xiang Chu immediately drove to the "Northeast Tea House" and parked the car outside the back door.
Zheng Longzheng booked a private room and sat in the middle waiting for Long Yue to arrive.
Xiang Chu informed the teahouse owner and disguised himself as a waiter, serving tea and water to the two men.
After more than an hour, the seductively dressed Long Yue finally arrived.
She sat opposite Zheng Longzheng and said tenderly, "Longzheng! I didn't expect you to be so great. I love you so much. By the way! What good stuff did you bring?"
"Drink tea first."
Zheng Longzheng smiled unnaturally and shouted,
"Bring up the tea, mate."
Xiang Chu was just outside the door, but did not respond. He walked in carrying a tray with two plates of tea and snacks and placed it on the coffee table in front of the two of them.
Long Yue asked in confusion: "Huh?! Why did you...?"
Before Xiang Chu could finish her words, he had already covered her mouth and nose with the handkerchief in his right hand.
"Well!"
Long Yue struggled for a moment, then fainted in the blink of an eye.
Zheng Longzheng said anxiously: "Old Xiang! You didn't kill her, did you?"
"No! I just fainted."
Xiang Chu smiled, picked her up, and said anxiously,
"Open the door quickly and get her into the car."
"it is good!"
Zheng Longzheng hurriedly opened the door.
Xiang Chu went through the back door and put Long Yue into the car.
Then he took out a tow rope, tied her up, and drove away.
Driving into the dense forest of the Ming Palace, Xiang Chu took Long Yue out of the car and instructed:
"Lao Zheng! Drive back and don't tell anyone about this, or we'll both be finished."
"Understood! Understood! Thank you, brother."
Zheng Longzheng thanked him repeatedly and drove away in a hurry.
Xiang Chu carried Long Yue into the woods, checked her body and found no poison, then pinched her philtrum to wake her up.
Long Yue saw Xiang Chu and asked in surprise: "Where am I? Who are you?"
Xiang Chu looked at her coldly and said in a cold voice:
"Xiang Chu, the leader of the third group of the Military Intelligence Department's Operations Section! 'Manchurian Fox'! Tell me your real name, your place of origin, and how many important military and political figures you have persuaded to defect."
The "Manchurian Fox" exclaimed: "You, you are the 'hypnotist' of the Military Intelligence Department?"
"you know too?"
Xiang Chu was stunned and sneered,
"Since you know my abilities, if you don't want to become a fool, just speak up."
"Manchurian Fox" said with tears in her eyes: "Team Leader Xiang! My original name is Na Cuilan, and I am from Wulitun, Harbin. My parents and relatives were killed by the devils. I also have a younger brother. I was threatened by Ichiro Banmoto..."
Na Cuilan recounted her sad past, how she was forced by the Japanese devils to reach this point step by step, and she was helpless.
Xiang Chu sighed and said, "Alas! I didn't expect the devils to be so bad. Since you are determined to avenge your family, I can not arrest you, but you must be a hidden chess piece under my command in the future, lurking in the devil's spy department..."
After listening to Xiang Chu's story, Na Cuilan said worriedly, "Team Leader Xiang! If Banben Ichiro knew that I surrendered, he would definitely not let my brother go."
Xiang Chu said in a deep voice: "I have already caught Ichiro Banmoto, what are you afraid of?"
"Great!"
Cuilan said excitedly, and paused.
"If you can get him to tell me where my brother is hiding, I will, that would be even better."
Xiang Chu felt that this woman was quite good at negotiating conditions, so he nodded and said:
"I can help you find out, but you have to show some sincerity to put my mind at ease."
Cuilan looked at him with admiration, and said with a smile, "Team Leader Xiang! I have a letter of surrender and an ink pad with me, and I can sign one for you. And I can confess what I know about the Japanese spies lurking in Nanjing."
"Great!"
Xiang Chu was overjoyed, but it was not easy to search a woman, so he asked anxiously: "Where is she?!"
Cuilan looked at her chest, which made Xiang Chu speechless. He took out a pen and paper and said:
"You should first tell us about the Japanese spies lurking in Nanjing, as well as the military and political personnel you have instigated to defect."
Na Cuilan looked at his handsome face and slowly listed all the Japanese spies lurking in Nanjing. The military and political personnel named Lin Haifeng, Zheng Longzheng, and He Shilai.
After Xiang Chu finished writing it down, he said with emotion, "Thank you, Miss! I will untie you right away."
Cuilan laughed and said, "Team Leader Xiang! Aren't you afraid that I will run away? Or attack you."
"Don't be afraid! I know you won't."
Xiang Chu laughed heartily and untied the ropes on her.
"Actually, we, no! I know you are very powerful."
Na Cuilan distinguished herself from the Japanese spy and reached into her bosom and took out a blank letter of surrender.
She squatted down, finished writing, signed her name, put her fingerprint on it and handed it to Xiang Chu.
Xiang Chu took it, glanced at it, put it in his pocket, took out a piece of paper, wrote down a radio station call sign, and instructed:
"I won't set any other restrictions on you. If you have important information, you can send it to this radio station's call sign."
"Understood! This is my phone number. I want to wait until Ichiro Itamoto tells me my brother's address and then choose an opportunity to return to Northeast China."
"Okay! I'll go back and ask Ichiro Banmoto, and then call you. Don't go to No. 12 Yongnian Road at 103 noon tomorrow."
"Ah?! You know all this?"
Cuilan exclaimed, looked at him with great gratitude and said,
"It seems that you are here to save me today."
Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Yes! Let's go."
Cuilan was not in a hurry to leave and hesitated to speak.
Xiang Chu asked doubtfully: "Do you have anything else to do?"
Cuilan nodded and said, "Team Leader Xiang! If all the Japanese spies in Nanjing are dead and I am the only one alive, I am afraid I will not be able to escape. Can you let me kidnap an important person? It would be best if it is your enemy."
"There really is one. He is Dainong's nephew. You can kidnap him and exchange him for one or more Japanese spies."
Xiang Chu smiled and told her Dai Zhengtong's address.
"Thank you!"
Cuilan bowed, turned around and disappeared into the dense forest.
