Chapter 309: Death Scheme
Chapter 309: Death Scheme
"Old Lu is dying?" Cuiping was overjoyed.
If it weren't for Old Yu being so nosy and always stopping her, she would have wanted to kill this murderous devil long ago to vent her anger on the young comrades of the Jinhai Student Union.
"Ok.
"Let's go, clean up the place.
"Xiao Lin, go keep an eye on Xiao Hui. This damn girl just came back from the American guy's place and I don't know where she ran off to now."
Hong Zhiyou ordered.
"Don't worry, we'll go now." Lin Tian didn't waste any words, snapped his fingers and turned away.
"Be careful." Hong Zhiyou said.
Got in the car.
As soon as the engine was started, Cuiping opened the car door and sat in the passenger seat.
"Senior Sister, where are you going?" Hong Zhiyou asked.
“Go meet Old Lu.
"I'm afraid he is pretending to be dead. This guy is very cunning. I won't feel at ease until I see him die." Cuiping said.
"Besides, I have to see a doctor."
She folded her arms, feeling a little uncomfortable.
Only then did Hong Zhiyou notice that Cuiping was injured.
She clamped the knife with her arm, but the sharp butterfly knife scraped her flesh, and blood stained the left half of her skirt.
“I told you not to go, but you didn’t believe me.
“Everyone knows that times have changed, so he put down his axe and started playing with a sniper rifle.
“If he doesn’t shoot two a day, he’ll get itchy.
"You're still thinking about getting physical."
Hong Zhi shook his head unhappily, took off his suit and put it on her shoulders.
"terrific.
“I guess you can’t keep this dress.
Cuiping smiled, endured the pain, put it on with a sigh, and buttoned it up.
She is very traditional.
If you don't put it on properly, you might miss it.
“Junior brother, those who learn martial arts must not rely too much on guns, and must not lose their courage.
“Guns are good things.
“But there will always be a time to meet each other.
"Maybe one day you will be blocked by someone, and you will lose your strength and courage, and you will not be able to display your strength and kung fu.
"Don't compare yourself to Old Zhou, he's an old bachelor, he plays with guns during the day and axes at night, he's good at everything.
"You still have to practice. When you have nothing else to do, you should find someone to fight with, or practice martial arts to develop your skills.
"Hey, I was delayed by Old Yu. If it was in the mountains, I would have punched my brains out with this one punch. Is it necessary for Old Zhou to shoot?"
Cuiping was extremely dissatisfied with her poor performance this time.
Hong Zhiyou agreed with this point.
Cui Ping was able to render Qiao Sanmei brain dead with a slap and cripple Ma Kui with a kick. She was truly invincible.
Today, I gave Zhang the God of Legs a heavy punch in the face, but Zhang the God of Legs only had a broken face but he was still able to "fly into the sky and hide in the ground", which shows that Cui Ping is indeed weak in energy and power.
of course.
This was most likely caused by Lao Yu.
Lao Yu was depressed and under great pressure, and Cuiping had suffered from "cold violence" for a long time, so she was naturally depressed. She suffered from insomnia, fatigue, and severe depletion of energy. It would be strange if she could beat someone to death.
“Senior sister.
“Didn’t Donghai Tea House open a horse farm recently?
"If I have nothing to do, I can go out for a ride or play mahjong. I'm really bored. There are many profiteers in Jinhai who are making money from the country's misfortune. Let's kill a few of them.
"Don't just hang around Old Yu all day long, you need to find something to do.
"You don't even have a transportation station anymore, and no one is watching over you, so just go and have fun on your own."
Hong Zhiyou gave her psychological counseling while driving.
"you're right.
"Why should I always be around Yu Zecheng? Just because the organization asked me to cooperate with him doesn't mean I have to stay at home and feed chickens every day.
"From today on, I will promote the name of the Anti-Traitor Team and specifically look for corrupt officials, evil tyrants, and kill them all when I see them."
Cuiping's eyes lit up and she said happily.
"Ahem.
“Remove the words ‘corrupt officials’.
"Otherwise, there will be no one to run the municipal government of Jinhai City."
Hong Zhiyou reminded.
When we arrived at the hospital, Yu Zecheng and Wu Jingzhong were chatting in the corridor.
"Teacher, Director Yu."
The two sides greeted each other.
"Director Ding, please find a surgeon to check on Mrs. Yu. She is injured." Hong Zhiyou did not hide anything and instructed Ding Defeng, who was smiling apologetically at the side.
"Cui Ping, why are you injured?
“Where.
"Quick, let me see."
Yu Zecheng became anxious when he heard this.
When Cui Ping saw his anxious look, she felt so warm and happy in her heart, and she grinned and said:
"It's okay, just a minor injury."
"Why is there so much blood? Is it serious? Come on, Dean Ding." Yu Zecheng quickly noticed the blood seeping out of his suit.
"Mrs. Yu, please follow me." Ding Defeng said.
"Stationmaster, I..." Yu Zecheng looked at the stationmaster.
"Go, go." Wu Jingzhong smiled and waved his hand.
“Oh, it’s okay.
"Dean Ding, you have to find a female doctor for me..."
Cuiping's voice came over.
"How's the matter going?" Wu Jingzhong asked with his hands behind his back.
“It has been confirmed that the person behind this is Zhang Si’s son Zhang Shaojie.
“He brought back a group of people from Southeast Asia.
“They are all good assassins, and the leader has already been killed by Madam Yu and her team.
"Now we just have to wait for Zhang Shaojie to be arrested."
Hong Zhiyou reported.
"Well, we must find the person at all costs. We have a blood feud with Zhang Si's family.
“It’s troublesome to be targeted like this.
"The chairman is very capable, but he is also troubled and annoyed by Wang Yaqiao and Ke Chengwu.
“It’s hard to guard against.
"You have to die to see the body."
Wu Jingzhong pointed at him and said solemnly.
"Did you know that Huang Yunxian was transferred to the Bac Ninh front?" Wu Jingzhong said.
"I know. Commander Chen called me before he came out." Hong Zhi nodded.
"His move means that the Pingjin-Jinsui faction has won.
“The U.S. military is the key to this incident.
"They have a close relationship with you. The chairman can easily guess that you might be involved. I'm worried that the chairman will be suspicious of you, which will be very unfavorable for the future."
Wu Jingzhong said with deep concern.
“When you are stuck in a situation, the only way is to break it.
"I have no choice but to do this. As long as I have money and can get weapons and food from the Americans, the chairman will definitely understand how difficult it is for me.
"I will fly to Jingling tonight to plead guilty."
Hong Zhiyou sighed with a wry smile.
His greatest confidence comes from the time that exceeds everyone's expectations.
Because no one could have predicted, not even those in Xibaipo, that with the Nationalist army still having a slight advantage, there would only be a few months left before the Northeast was defeated and Tianjin and Haikou would be liberated.
By then, he will board an American military plane and leave directly. He will be much freer when he arrives in Hong Kong.
Without the regular army, even if the father and son of the Jiang family wanted to punish him, they could only rely on Mao Renfeng's despicable assassination methods. He just had to be more cautious.
What's more, Hong Zhiyou also has ships, docks, and wineries. A large number of people from the Kuomintang government crowded onto the island, making eating, drinking, defecating and urinating a problem.
There are no eternal enemies in this world, only absolute interests.
At that time, I'm afraid the chairman will need more help from me.
Therefore, Hong Zhiyou was not panicked at all.
Of course, I can't tell this to Wu Jingzhong in detail. No one will believe it even if I tell him. Instead, it will make Old Wu feel that he is blindly confident.
“Well, that’s all it can do.
"May the US dollar protect you and me from harm." Wu Jingzhong said with his hands behind his back.
"I definitely will." Hong Zhiyou said with a smile.
"Oh, there is another troublesome matter."
Wu Jingzhong pointed to the intensive care unit and continued:
"Director Mao has ordered that Lu Qiaoshan be taken back to the Inspectorate and transferred to the military court for trial on multiple charges.
“What Deputy Minister Zheng conveyed to me privately was that we should get rid of Lu Qiaoshan so that he wouldn’t have to talk nonsense when he returned to Jingling.
“I just went in to see Luqiaoshan, and he’s not in good shape.
"This is a very difficult matter for me. One of us allows it to be delivered, and the other does not. It would be bad to offend both of them.
"What do you think?"
Just as Hong Zhiyou was about to speak, Li Guifen came out with red and swollen eyes:
"Zhiyou, you're here. Qiaoshan wants to see you."
“You go ahead.
"I'll go back to the station first. I'll be back early. I haven't eaten yet. Let's find a good restaurant together later."
Wu Jingzhong gave an order and was about to leave when Hong Zhiyou leaned close to his ear and whispered:
"Have you checked inside?"
"Of course, Section Chief Xiao checked it personally and found nothing." Wu Jingzhong also whispered.
Then, he walked away quickly under the escort of Xiao Guohua and others.
Hong Zhi felt a little relieved.
He was really afraid that Lu Qiaoshan would take someone with him when he left, so he hid a gun under the quilt and pillow and took him with him on the road.
Hong Zhiyou pushed open the door and walked into the ward.
Lu Qiaoshan's face looked haggard, as if covered with a layer of gray.
Especially the eyes, which were lifeless and looked like a lamp at the end of its life.
"Brother Shan."
Hong Zhiyou's tone sounded a little lonely.
The winner becomes the king, the loser becomes the bandit.
Lu Qiaoshan had been scheming in Jinhai for so many years, but in the end, he ended up with his family broken up and his loved ones dead. It's really sad.
"Zhiyou, I can't do it anymore." Lu Qiaoshan smiled with a weak breath.
"Director Mao wants to send you to a military court." "Deputy Director Zheng wants you to die in Jinhai."
"No, it may not be a bad choice."
Hong Zhiyou said lightly.
“Zhiyou, we are brothers…brothers.
"Now I am going to meet Mr. Sun, and it is time to settle any past grudges between us brothers.
"dont you agree?"
Lu Qiaoshan stretched out his hand.
Hong Zhiyou held his hand and nodded: "It's time, it's time."
"Thanks.
"I have fought all my life, hoping to be rich and prosperous, but I never thought I would end up like this, with my son dead and my family fortune all gone.
"Your sister-in-law is still young, she is almost halfway through her life, she is not ugly, her manners and upbringing are also OK, I can only entrust her to you.
"She is willing to return to my hometown to take care of my mother. Please be merciful when you search my house, and leave the remaining money for her to live on.
"She wants to stay in Jinhai, so you can help her find a better family to remarry."
Lu Qiaoshan looked back on his half life and gave the following advice with a sigh.
"rest assured.
"I will make all arrangements for your mother and sister-in-law." Hong Zhiyou said.
"You always keep your word, I'm assured.
"That way, I feel at ease."
Land bridge mountain road.
"Zhiyou, you, tell me, if I had lived a peaceful life, not competing with Ma Kui and Li Ya for the position of deputy stationmaster, and had sold wine and sugar with you, wouldn't I be living a good life now?" He looked at Hong Zhiyou, with sadness and regret in his eyes.
Hong Zhiyou sighed secretly in his heart.
Those who followed him, such as Lao Xie, all made a fortune.
Character is not a necessity in this world, but you need to have some.
It’s a pity that there is no Luqiao Mountain.
I gave him enough opportunities, but he didn't cherish them.
He is a smiling tiger.
I am a human... a hunter.
From the first day we met, our fate was determined.
"Won't.
“This world is ultimately a cannibalistic place.
"If you just try to be a good person, you won't make any money or get promoted.
“If you want to get promoted and get rich, someone will bite you.
"Once you are in the arena, you have no choice."
Hong Zhiyou didn't want to criticize a dying person, he could only sigh.
"Yes.
“This world is always about cannibalism.
“I don’t eat people, but people want to eat me.
“Heaven is unfair.
“God has no mercy on me.
"What can I do, what can I do..."
Tears rolled down Lu Qiaoshan's cheeks, and the light in his eyes gradually dimmed.
"Old Lu, wait a minute, I have something else to tell you, it's bigger than the sky!"
Seeing that Lu Qiaoshan was about to die, Hong Zhiyou quickly shook him and shouted.
"What, what's the matter?" Lu Qiaoshan, who was already exhausted, had a gleam of hope in his eyes again.
"Hold on, hold on."
Hong Zhiyou ran out quickly, opened the door and shouted:
"Sister-in-law, Dean Ding, doctor, please come in quickly, Old Lu is dying."
"Qiaoshan!"
Li Guifen ran in in a panic, grabbed Lu Qiaoshan's hand and burst into tears.
Ding Defeng and the doctor also hurriedly checked and gave intravenous drip.
"Zhiyou, what...what's the matter?" Lu Qiaoshan looked at Hong Zhiyou and asked weakly.
“Yeah, nothing’s wrong.
"I'm just afraid that if you die, there won't be any witnesses around, and I won't be able to explain myself later."
Hong Zhiyou shrugged and told the truth.
There are too many people who want Lu Qiaoshan dead now. If there is no circumstantial evidence, he might be used as a handle to be held hostage by others.
Maybe Lu Qiaoshan asked him to come in just to defeat him before his death.
Hong Zhiyou has to be guarded against.
"You, you fucking..." Lu Qiaoshan's eyes rolled back in anger.
He really wanted to die in Hong Zhiyou's "hands" so that Zheng Jieming, Mao Renfeng and others would have something to bite Hong Zhiyou back.
Unexpectedly, this last bit of wishful thinking also fell through.
Even death can't do anything to this kid.
Too cunning and too devilish.
"Dean Ding, rescue Lu Xuncha at all costs. Lu Qiaoshan is going to die before the commissioner from the Inspection Office of the Bureau of Security arrives. You can forget about your job as dean." Turning around, Hong Zhiyou instructed Ding Defeng.
Haha, you want to die?
It's a simple idea.
He controls you during your lifetime, and when you want to die, he still makes clear arrangements for you.
"clear."
Ding Defeng immediately arranged for emergency personnel to carry out various emergency measures for Lu Qiaoshan.
Poor Lu Qiaoshanleng was saved by first aid.
"Too greedy, too bad!"
Hong Zhiyou gave the final verdict on Lu Qiaoshan with four words.
Just like the melting of ice and snow and the withering of mountain flowers, there was no ripple in his heart. He turned around and walked out in the resentful and unwilling afterglow of Lu Qiaoshan.
Return to the station.
Wu Jingzhong is on the phone.
After hanging up the phone, he asked, "How is Lu Qiaoshan?"
"Ding Defeng is currently being rescued. According to the timetable, he should be able to hold on until the people from the inspection room arrive." Hong Zhiyou said, looking at his watch.
"Well, Mao Renfeng couldn't produce anything if he was handed over to him. He died halfway through the journey. This is a good answer.
"Director Mao and Zheng Jieming can report to the authorities."
Wu Jingzhong nodded with satisfaction.
Immediately, he drank a sip of tea and continued:
“I just called Shuitun Prison.
"I originally thought that since Fengchu was gone, we couldn't let Wolong live alone, but the people over there told me that Li Ya was released from prison last night."
Hong Zhiyou also frowned: "This is very strange.
"Logically speaking, Lu Qiaoshan sent someone to imprison Li Ya alone. Given the hatred between the two of them, Lu Qiaoshan should have secretly executed Li Ya before his downfall to avenge his hatred."
"Teacher, did Li Ya find some connections?" Hong Zhiyou asked.
"Impossible. We have people in Shuitun Prison. According to intelligence, Lu Qiaoshan is keeping Li Ya under strict surveillance. It is difficult for outsiders, including the warden, to contact him.
"Not only has the person been released, but when Chen Changjie searched Lu Qiaoshan's office, he also found that all the incriminating materials against Li Ya had been destroyed.
"In my opinion, there is only one possibility. Lu Qiaoshan released Li Ya privately."
Wu Jingzhong analyzed.
"Considering Lu Qiaoshan's vindictive nature, this is indeed very abnormal.
“This is something evil.
"Alas, missed opportunity."
Hong Zhiyou frowned and sighed.
Without Lu Qiaoshan, there would be no need for Li Ya, this mad dog that loves to bite people, to exist.
Hong Zhiyou originally thought that Lu Qiaoshan would drag Li Ya to die together with him.
Even made a second-hand preparation.
Once Lu Qiaoshan dies, Li Ya will be killed in prison in Lu's name.
In this way, given the well-known hatred between Li and Lu, it would be completely feasible as long as it was done in a covert manner.
Now, all I can say is that the cooked duck...has really flown away.
"Don't think about what has already happened. Wait and see what Li Ya's next move will be, and then make a detailed analysis.
"Well, since Li Ya is not dead, we have to keep it simple. You and Zecheng pretend that you know nothing and go to Shuitun in person to pick up Li Ya from prison on my behalf and give him a warm welcome.
"Even if we fail, we still have to perform the show, otherwise it will make us look..."
Wu Jingzhong frowned and reminded.
"There is still some time before we get on the plane, so I'll do it now." Hong Zhiyou said.
He called Yu Zecheng and they made an appointment to meet at the gate of Shuitun Prison.
……
In Shuitun Prison, Liao Sanmin walked up and shook hands with the two men.
"I'm here to transfer Li Ya out of prison." Yu Zecheng first conducted the handover with Liao Sanmin in a businesslike manner.
After finishing his business, Liao Sanmin closed the door.
"You guys chat, I have to catch a plane, I'll leave first."
Hong Zhiyou was not interested in their conversation, so he said hello and left quickly.
"Old Yu, two things.
"Comrade Lao Luo has withdrawn, and the organization has appointed me as the new contact person.
"You are still the leader, and I will follow your arrangements."
Liao Sanmin smiled and whispered.
"Well, what new tasks does the organization have?" Yu Zecheng asked.
“First, the deployment of Fan Hanjie’s forces in the Jinzhou direction, as well as intelligence on the supply of food, fodder, weapons, and other support.
"Second, the movements of the U.S. military."
Liao Sanmin said.
"These two should not be difficult. Chief Guo Rugui of the Third Department will be listening to the report on the defeat in Northeast China in two days. As long as there is a regular meeting of the Ministry of National Defense, we should be able to get this information.
"I can find out the movements of the U.S. military when I return to Jinhai."
Yu Zecheng nodded.
"The problem now is that I have no legitimate reason to see you," said Liao Sanmin.
"This is indeed a problem. Li Ya is out of prison. He is keeping a close eye on me now. He comes here too often. He will become suspicious of you."
Yu Zecheng frowned.
“Or, you can go pursue Hong Xiaohui.
"Hong Xiaohui is Secretary Hong's sister. You created the idea that you wanted to be transferred to the municipal government, or the Bureau of Secrecy, or become a prison warden. With the motivation to get close to Hong Zhiyou, it would be natural for you to pursue her sister."
Yu Zecheng thought about it and came up with an idea.
……
