Chapter 158: Reappearance of Glory
Xiang Chu had not taken off his mask and asked with a smile:
"What's your name, Lieutenant?"
The lieutenant responded, "Replying to Team Leader Xiang! My name is Wang Jianwu."
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "No wonder Section Chief Wang likes to send you so much. It turns out that your names are so similar."
"Yes!"
Wang Jianwu nodded, thinking Xiang Chu was very easy-going, and asked with a smile,
"Team Leader! Everyone says you are a handsome man. Could it be that you have changed your appearance?"
"Of course! I caught so many Japanese spies in Nanjing, so I have to be on guard when I come to Shanghai, right?"
Xiang Chu nodded, paused, and asked him,
"I heard that Xu Enquan, the former station chief of your Shanghai station, was assassinated by Japanese spies. What happened?"
Wang Jianwu shook his head and said, "I don't know the specific situation, but the Japanese spies in Shanghai are really rampant."
Xiang Chu was caught off guard by the fact that Wang Jianwu kept the secret from him.
Probably because I didn't reveal my true face, so he didn't pick me up and I didn't want to say another word to him.
Xiang Chu saw this, but didn't argue with him, and changed the subject:
"Lieutenant Wang! How long has Deputy Station Chief Feng been working at your station?"
Wang Jianwu may have felt that he had just neglected Xiang Chu, and hurriedly said, "Deputy Station Chief Feng has been with our station for about seven or eight years. He promoted me. He is really a good leader."
"is it?"
Xiang Chu was shocked, but fortunately he asked a question because there were some things he couldn't let this person know.
Wang Jianwu asked with a smile: "By the way! Team Leader Xiang, is your wife staying at the Shanghai Dahua Hotel?"
“There might be something wrong with this person!”
Xiang Chu thought to himself, thinking of Wang Jianwu picking him up at the station, maybe it was written that way on purpose to let the Japanese spies know that he was coming.
Xiang Chu thought of this and smiled, "I hurried here from Nanjing alone, and I still don't know where the wife lives. Oh, right! Has your station informed us in advance?"
Wang Jianwu shook his head and said, "That's not the case. I saw that the station has already sent people to the Dahua Hotel for security."
Xiang Chu really didn't want this person to know too much about himself, so he said in a tough tone:
"Lieutenant Wang! I suddenly remembered something urgent that I must do right away. Stop the car and give me the car."
"OK then!"
Wang Jianwu reluctantly parked the car by the roadside, opened the door and got out.
Xiang Chu moved to the driver's seat, started the engine and drove the jeep away.
He saw from the rearview mirror that Wang Jianwu quickly got into a rickshaw.
Xiang Chu deliberately drove around in a circle before heading towards Tilan Prison.
An hour later, the jeep arrived at Tiran Prison.
He took off his mask, drove the car into the prison gate and stopped at the door.
A prison guard came forward, Xiang Chu showed him his ID and ordered:
"Director Wang of the Shanghai Intelligence Station has called to retrieve Li Shan and Long Ling."
"Yes!"
The prison guard nodded respectfully and quickly made a phone call to notify them to release the prisoner.
Soon, two prison guards, a man and a woman, brought Li Shan and Long Ling out respectively.
Li Shan was in good condition, but Long Ling was very weak.
When the two saw Xiang Chu, who was wearing a captain's uniform and looked extremely handsome, their eyes suddenly lit up.
The two were about to speak, but were stopped by Xiang Chu who gently shook his head.
Xiang Chu said with concern: "Brother Shan! Sister Long! You have suffered so much, please get in the car."
"Okay! Thank you! Thank you!"
The two didn't know how to address Xiang Chu in front of others, and just kept saying thank you.
Xiang Chu drove away and put his face back into Zhang Da Kui's mask.
Anyway, everyone knows that Zhang Da Kui changes his face more frequently than anyone else, and no one knows his true appearance.
Of course, Xiang Chu never really joined the Green Gang, he just used Zhang Da Kui's identity.
He changed his mask, looked at Li Shan and the other man, and said bitterly:
"Jing Gang actually dared to put you two in jail while I was away. If I had known, I would have not only thrown him into the Suzhou River, but killed him directly."
Li Shan smiled and said, "I know you will come to rescue us."
Long Ling also said: "I also know that no matter how hard it is, I will persevere."
Xiang Chu took out two pills and handed them to the two of them, saying:
"Take my medicine quickly."
"Thank you, Mr. Kui!"
Li Shan and Long Ling said gratefully.
Long Ling took the pill and felt much better. She smiled bitterly and said:
"Master Kui! I'm sorry, I didn't protect the Chu Yue Hotel well."
Xiang Chu waved his hand and said, "It's okay! I had already taken it back before I came here. Even the concession police didn't dare to touch it. Who the hell is Jing Gang? I should have killed him three years ago."
Li Shan smiled bitterly and said, "Master Kui! Our dock warehouse is still in their hands."
Xiang Chu sneered, "After I send you and Sister Long to Jishi Hospital for treatment, I will go and take back the dock."
Long Ling said anxiously: "Master Kui! I'm much better now. I don't need to stay in the hospital."
Li Shan also said: "Master Kui! I'm fine. Call my brothers to help you rob the dock warehouse."
"Brother Shan! Sister Long! Are you two really okay?"
Xiang Chu glanced at them and felt that they looked much better. He nodded and said,
"Okay! Then send Sister Long back to the hotel first. You don't have to call anyone, we can just go over there and take care of it."
This name is a bit confusing, but Master Kui is just the respectful name they use to address Xiang Chu.
Li Shan clenched his fists and said angrily:
"Okay! I'm going to kill those bastards."
Xiang Chu drove the car to a secluded place, got out and opened the trunk.
He took off his military uniform, opened his suitcase and changed back into his moon-white robe.
He suddenly transformed himself into Zhang Da Kui, the leader of the Qing Gang.
He got back in the car and drove towards Chuyue Hotel.
Li Shan and Long Ling were very familiar with his style and did not ask too many questions.
The jeep arrived at Chuyue Hotel, and Xiang Chu ordered:
"Sister Long! Have your men call Bai Mei, Dean Hua, President Yi, and Bao Da Ting to come over for dinner and tell them that I'm back. Also, starting tomorrow, Chu Yue Hotel will be hosting extremely important people. Don't be afraid to spend money, and make sure to provide the highest standard of reception and prepare the best ingredients in advance.
Moreover, this matter must be kept strictly confidential.”
"understand!"
Long Ling nodded.
Li Shan called the waiter and helped her into the restaurant.
Zhang Shan had been guarding the door, and didn't know when Xiang Chu went out. He also drove back in a military vehicle, his face full of astonishment.
Xiang Chu waved to him: "Xiao Zhang! Get in the car quickly."
"Yes!"
Zhang Shan hurriedly got into the car, nodded and bowed to Li Shan and said,
"Hello, Master Li."
Li Shan asked doubtfully: "Do you know me?"
Zhang Shan smiled and said, "Of course! You are Li Shan from Yanmen, the top figure under Master Kui."
Li Shan said domineeringly: "You kid! You may not know that I am still of the Tong generation."
Zhang Shan was shocked and said, "Ah?! My apology! My apology."
Xiang Chu drove all the way to the warehouse at Huangpu Pier No. 9.
Zhang Shan couldn't help but ask, "Master Kui! What are we going to do?"
Li Shan glared at him, but Xiang Chu smiled and said:
"Take back the warehouse at Huangpu Pier 9!"
"what?!"
Zhang Shan was stunned and his fingers began to tremble when he counted to 3.
Li Shan scolded, "What are you afraid of if you follow Master Kui? Master Kui conquered this dock all by himself, and now he is just recreating his former glory."
"Yes! Reappearance of glory."
Xiang Chu smiled, stepped on the accelerator, and drove into the Huangpu Wharf at high speed.
Jing Gang had been rescued from the Suzhou River by his men, and knowing that he was coming to rob the warehouse at Huangpu Pier No. 9, he gathered all his brothers, all of whom were armed with machetes and axes, and were ready for battle at the dock.
