Chapter 216 The 5th Column
Liu Zhengxiong remained silent and watched Xiang Chu's performance excitedly.
Xiang Chu took out a pocket watch, turned it a circle, and then waved it in front of Hua Kui.
The basement was quiet, with only the sound of the pocket watch ticking.
After a while, Hua Kui let out a faint snoring sound.
Xiang Chu suddenly imitated Liu Zhengxiong's voice and asked in a low voice:
"Hua Kui! Are you from the Red Party?"
Liu Zhengxiong was extremely shocked that Xiang Chu could imitate his voice, and it was exactly the same.
Hua Kui replied in a disembodied voice: "No! I am now a member of the White Party's fifth column."
Xiang Chu and Liu Zhengxiong were both shocked when they heard that the White Party actually had this secret organization.
Xiang Chu continued to ask: "Who are the people in the Fifth Column?"
Hua Kui responded: "They are all people who defected from the Red Party to the White Party and lurked in the heart of the Red Party."
Xiang Chu asked, "Where did you hide Yu Niansheng?"
Hua Kui responded intermittently: "Dead, dead."
After Hua Kui finished speaking, he shook his head and felt like he was about to wake up.
When Xiang Chu and Liu Zhengxiong heard that Yu Niansheng was dead, they wished they could kill this traitor.
As Hua Kui was about to wake up, if he asked again, he would expose himself.
Xiang Chu slapped Hua Kui awake and yelled, "Stop pretending to sleep!"
Hua Kui shuddered and said anxiously, "Sir! I'm sorry, I really didn't mean it."
Xiang Chu pulled out his pistol, pointed it at his head and yelled, "Hua Kui! I'm telling you the truth. I gave this warehouse to my mistress. The mistress's father is Yu Niansheng. Tell me, where is my father-in-law now?"
Hua Kui said incoherently, "Ah?! Yu Niansheng is the officer's father-in-law? But he is a member of the Red Party."
Xiang Chu said coldly, "I only recognize Yu Niansheng's daughter. As for what kind of person Yu Niansheng is, it's none of my business. If you tell me where Yu Niansheng is, I will spare you. Otherwise, I will treat you as a Japanese spy."
Hua Kui said anxiously, "Your father-in-law was beaten to death at the southern foot of Mount Qixia. He and I were old acquaintances, so I buried him and even erected a piece of wood with his name written on it."
Xiang Chu was shocked and asked, "Dead? Did you kill him?"
Hua Kui waved his hands repeatedly and said, "No, no, it was Lin Xi and Wang Li from the Party Affairs Office who killed him."
Liu Zhengxiong reminded: "They are Feng Shurong's two men."
Xiang Chu said coldly: "Were you arranged by Lin Xi and Wang Li?"
Hua Kui shook his head and said, "Yes."
Xiang Chu put away his gun and asked coldly, "What are you doing here?"
Hua Kui smiled bitterly and said, "Wait for someone to come and make a connection or buy medicine."
Liu Zhengxiong shouted, "So you thought I was the one who came to make the connection?"
Hua Kui looked at him and nodded fearfully.
Xiang Chu smiled bitterly and said, "Team Leader Liu! Then we really caught the wrong person. Let's release him! Also, seal up this warehouse first. If you don't need it anymore, find someone to sell it later."
"Yes!"
Liu Zhengxiong hurriedly accepted the order.
Xiang Chu walked out of the basement, walked out of the back door of the warehouse, got into the car, and drove away quickly.
Liu Zhengxiong pretended to be embarrassed and smiled: "Lao Hua! So you are one of us, why didn't you say so earlier?"
Hua Kui laughed and said, "Zhengxiong! I was too rude. I thought you were a member of the Red Party."
"I never was!"
Liu Zhengxiong shouted, untied him immediately and took him out of the basement.
Then, he instructed Huang An to seal off the entire warehouse.
At this time, Lin Xi and Wang Li rushed over with a group of people from the Party Affairs Office.
Lu Xiong, Sun Ruize and others immediately stepped forward and stopped them with guns.
Liu Zhengxiong waved his hand and said, "Let them come over."
Lin Xi stepped forward and said with a smile: "Captain Liu! He is our man."
"Call me Team Leader Liu from now on!"
Liu Zhengxiong scolded and patted his shoulder.
"Take the people away, and don't think about this warehouse anymore. Our Military Intelligence Department doesn't want it anymore, so we'll seal it up and sell it off."
"Ah?! Why don't you want it for no reason?"
Wang Li felt very regretful and felt that he would never be able to catch any more Red Party underground members here.
Liu Zhengxiong rolled his eyes at him and yelled:
"What the hell! Retreat!"
The operatives immediately got in the car and drove away.
Xiang Chu took off his mask only after he was far away from Xiaguan Wharf. He was very sad inside.
Although Yu Niansheng received the notice from Yu Xiaowan, he was still killed during the retreat. It was really a pity, which shows that the underground struggle situation in Nanjing was too complicated.
It turned out that in addition to Feng Shurong, his men had also been keeping an eye on his warehouse.
Xiang Chu parked the car next to a post office, got out and walked into the post office, picked up the phone and put it down again, not knowing how to tell Yu Xiaowan.
After a while, he transferred the call and said in a low voice:
"Xiao Wan! On the day your father returned to his hometown, he was murdered in the south of Qixia Mountain."
Yu Xiaowan's crying voice was heard from the other end of the phone, and after a long time, the crying stopped.
She said firmly: "My benefactor! Please help me get a coffin and erect a tombstone for my father. I will go back to Nanjing to pay my respects to him when I have time."
"Okay! I will avenge him. Please accept my condolences!"
Xiang Chu said with a choked voice and hung up the phone gently.
He walked out of the post office, got in the car and headed straight for the Military Intelligence Department.
As soon as I arrived at the gate of the Military Intelligence Department, the sentry at the gate said urgently:
"Sir! The director asked you to go to his office."
"it is good!"
Xiang Chu drove to the main office building and stopped, and found that there were many cars from the Party Affairs Office.
He quickly got out of the car, ran straight to the telecommunications department, knocked on the door and entered.
Ma Chunfang was there too, and said with a smile, "Chief Xiang! Are you looking for our Lieutenant Lin?"
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "Yes! I have something to ask her."
"Brother! What's the matter?"
Lin Qiaoer hurried out of the room and closed the door.
Xiang Chu sneered, "I went home to get something this morning and saw a thief broke into your house, so I led people to rush in to catch him. There were actually monitoring devices all over the place. Are you living there now?"
Lin Qiaoer was stunned and said anxiously, "No, I don't live there. Brother! Qiaoer didn't want to make you sad, so she said she still lived there."
"Oh! You've killed me."
Xiang Chu pretended to be fooled by her and turned around and ran up the stairs.
There were several people from the Party Affairs Office at the gate of Dainong, and Lei Gang, the head of the Party Affairs Investigation Section, was among them.
He saw Xiang Chu coming over and shouted, "Boy! Don't think you are great just because you are a top-class pilot and an ace agent. Release the people who arrested me immediately."
Xiang Chu shouted angrily: "What are you yelling about? Do you want to fight me?"
"you......"
Lei Gang was frightened by his strength. He was really afraid of being beaten, so he quickly moved away.
"Xiang Chu! Stop fighting and killing at every turn."
Ning Changde walked out of Dainong's office and scolded.
Xiang Chu said in an octave lower voice: "Uncle! I am really mad at them. It is so outrageous."
He walked into Dainong's office, where Zhou Hai, deputy director of the Party Affairs Department, was chatting with Dainong.
Dai Nong saw Xiang Chu coming in and scolded him, "Deputy Section Chief Xiang! How could you arrest people from the Party Affairs Office at random?"
Xiang Chu said angrily, "Director! I was distracted this morning, so I took a few of my men home and captured a Japanese spy assassin. He turned out to be from the 'Nine Chrysanthemum Sect'. We happened to see someone sneaking into Lieutenant Lin Qiao'er's villa across the street, so we sent people in to arrest him. How could we know it was their people? But they are all in the interrogation department, and they won't use torture without my order."
After hearing this, Dai Nong was not interested in arresting the people from the Party Affairs Office and asked in surprise, "You arrested the people from the 'Nine Chrysanthemums Faction'?"
Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Yes! Is it useful?"
Dainong laughed and said, "This is very useful. This sect has never admitted to invading China. Now we have evidence. Haha!"
Zhou Hai was immediately unhappy and said in a cold voice: "Acting Director! Don't just focus on your own business, what about ours?"
Dai Nong said hurriedly, "Of course we release her! But your people are really interesting. Why did they break into Lieutenant Lin's house? Her uncle is Commander Zeng."
Zhou Hai moved his mouth but made no sound.
Ning Changde ordered: "Xiao Xiang! Go and release him quickly."
"Yes!"
Xiang Chu hurriedly accepted the order and walked out of the office angrily.
The people from the Party Affairs Office at the door immediately dispersed when they saw that he looked like he was going to kill someone.
Xiang Chu met Kang Ce, who looked exhausted, and pretended to be puzzled.
"Huh?! Chief Kang! How come you're even later than me?"
"Something delayed me."
Kang Ce said with a lack of confidence as he walked into Dainong's office.
Xiang Chu ran to Li Maocai's office and said with a smile:
"Director! Lend me your phone."
Li Maocai asked in confusion: "What's the hurry?"
Xiang Chu said as he dialed the phone: "It was really lively this morning. We arrested an old Red Party member named Hua Kui, who is also a member of the White Party's Fifth Column."
"Ah! Is there really such a column?"
Li Maocai was stunned.
