Chapter 989: An Assistant
"Professor, you are the real plenipotentiary of the U.S. government!"
Meng Shaoyuan stared at Professor Keynes: "I was at the Licha Hotel, and I found that Kendall was a rough and unruly person, how could such a character be suitable for such an important task?" Moreover, Kendall has never been to China and knows nothing about the country, it won't be him, but you're different.
You've lived in China for 20 years, you've had an extremely good relationship with the U.S. Embassy, and when you first taught in the U.S., many of the students went into the upper echelons of government, and there was no one more suitable for you. Kendall is just sent to cooperate with you, and you will take on the heavy responsibility of negotiating between China and the United States, so that our government can obtain a loan and full support from the United States, am I right? ”
"You've said less."
Professor Keynes suddenly said, "I am also familiar with many high-level members of your government, such as Mr. Soong Ziwen, Mr. Kong Xiangxi, and your first lady, Ms. Soong Meiling. Yes, I'm the plenipotentiary, Kendall? He just brought me specific tasks, as well as assistants to assist me, and I have to admit that you are a very smart man, sir. ”
"Why?"
Meng Shaoyuan only asked these three words.
"Why?" Professor Keynes knew what he was trying to ask: "Before Kendall arrived in Shanghai, I received a telegram from a senior member of your government, a man who was also a good friend of mine, who asked me to make Kendall disappear for a while, and to make it look like Kendall had been kidnapped. I don't know why he wanted me to do it, but it was a no-brainer for me. I can take advantage of this time to ask him about the real attitude of the United States towards the Chinese government. ”
Meng Shaoyuan did not ask who this high-level person was.
He knew that even if he asked, Professor Keynes would not answer.
But he already understood exactly what kind of plan it was.
The plan was that Kendall was kidnapped, and Tang Dujin, who was in charge of picking him up, knew nothing.
The man who wanted to put him to death had an excuse.
Meng Shaoyuan finally figured out why he was kept in the dark before Kendall's arrival, but after Kendall was kidnapped, Kong Xiangxi named him to handle the case.
He knew that with Meng Shaoyuan's ability, he would be able to solve the case soon.
But what if the case is solved?
Meng Shaoyuan's task is not to solve the case quickly, but to keep Tang Dujin in Shanghai.
Forever!
Get rid of Tang Dujin in Shanghai.
Kong Xiangxi firmly believed that Meng Shaoyuan would figure it all out.
Song Ziwen?
Song Ziwen must know what is going on.
But he acquiesced. He gave up Tang Dujin.
In order to protect their family, anyone can give up!
Tang Dujin must shut up forever!
Meng Shaoyuan had only two paths to choose from:
killed Tang Dujin, and since then he has risen to the top and has the strongest backer in the government.
Refuse to perform a task.
Well, he's finished.
Dai Lian couldn't protect him.
Even the chairman can't protect him!
However, knowing that Tang Dujin was innocent and wronged, he wanted to let himself carry out his death sentence with his own hands?
They also worshipped the handle, that is their big brother!
"Meng, I know you're a great person." Professor Keynes said slowly: "I have also heard some rumours that some people in your government are involved in corruption scandals, so I can roughly guess what this situation is. You may be the most difficult person to do, but in China now, how to win the war is the first place. ”
Corruption is serious.
But in the face of uniting from top to bottom and achieving the final victory of the Anti-Japanese War, this kind of problem will be covered up, and the final sacrifice will be a small person like Tang Dujin.
"There's no corruption." Meng Shaoyuan suddenly smiled, but he smiled a little tiredly: "Our government is very clean, and every loan from the United States will be used for the great cause of the Anti-Japanese War." Please, Professor. ”
These loans from the United States must be obtained.
Even if some of them will be embezzled, these loans will be crucial to the war effort!
Professor Keynes nodded slightly: "I said that I have lived in China for twenty years, I love this country deeply, and within my ability, I will do everything I can to help China, even if I need to lie for this." ”
"Thank you, Professor."
Meng Shaoyuan stood up and bowed deeply to Professor Keynes......
……
"So, you're dead."
Meng Shaoyuan stared at Tang Dujin: "Now do you understand why you died?" ”
"I see, I see."
Tang Dujin laughed miserably: "I have no place to bury my death." It's okay to be able to die at your hands, and it won't humiliate me. Shaoyuan, my brother, let's do it. ”
"Betraying a brother is unkind and unjust. Betraying friends for glory, heaven does not tolerate it! Big brother, I won't kill you! ”
Meng Shaoyuan said unexpectedly.
"What? You don't kill me? Tang Dujin, who was in a desperate situation, was overjoyed, but soon asked: "But, how do you explain to the above?" ”
"I'll arrange for your fake death once." Meng Shaoyuan had already made up his mind at this time: "I will let those people above think that you are dead, and then I will arrange for you to transfer to Hong Kong, and you will go to the United States and the United Kingdom in the future." But remember to keep your name anonymous. ”
"I will, I will, there will be no more Tang Dujin in the world in the future!"
"Then you wait for me here, I'll arrange it, and I'll be back in a few hours!"
……
There was a knock on the door.
Brother Shao Yuan came back so soon?
Tang Dujin hurriedly opened the door.
But there was a woman standing outside the door.
"You are?" Tang Dujin was a little puzzled.
"My name is Wu Jingyi, and I am Meng Shaoyuan's assistant."
……
Tang Dujin sat there, motionless.
He was facing Wu Jingyi's gun.
"I don't know what's going on, I really don't know." Wu Jingyi said calmly: "I received a secret message, and I don't have to hide it from you, it was Miss Kong Lingyi Kong who gave me a personal secret message." The telegram said that you must die in Shanghai, and that the executor was our district chief, but as she knew, the district governor might not be able to carry out the order. ”
"Just say Meng Shaoyuan directly." Tang Dujin calmed down at this time: "Why hide it? ”
"It's him!" Wu Jingyi nodded: "This Young Master Meng is shameless, lustful, greedy for money, and full of problems, but there are two things he will definitely not do." The first is the surrender of the Japanese. The second is to betray his brother. Although Miss Kong has not been with Young Master Meng for a long time, she knows this person very well, as well as I do. Let me guess, what does he do to you? Fake your death? Yes, he will definitely arrange for you to fake your death! ”
"That's right, that's how he arranged it." Tang Dujin said calmly: "What about you? You came here to kill me? ”
"I'm here to kill you, and you must die." Wu Jingyi said indifferently: "Meng Shaoyuan values feelings more than anyone else, even if he never admits it. He thinks that he can cover the sky with one hand and protect all his brothers, but he can't do it, it's not him who can really cover the sky with one hand, but those who want your life!
Suspended animation? He will try to arrange it seamlessly, but there is always a possibility that flaws will be exposed. When that time comes, what will he do? What about the Shanghai District of the Military Control Bureau? What about those brothers who are still alive? Sometimes he is calm and afraid of people, and sometimes he is impulsive and ridiculous. One anger for the red face, one anger for the brother's things, he did it.
I'm his assistant, and my job is to protect him and keep him off when necessary. So what he can't do, I'll do it for him. He doesn't want to get his hands dirty, I'll get dirty. Mr. Tang, I'm sorry. ”
"I'm dead, and everyone can breathe a sigh of relief." Tang Dujin said numbly: "I really envy, this younger brother of mine can have such a good assistant." You are worthy of your district chief, and you can also explain to Miss Kong. ”
Wu Jingyi took out a telegram from her pocket: "This is a telegram from Miss Kong to me. ”
After speaking, she slowly stuffed the telegram into her mouth, chewed it slowly, and swallowed it slowly: "But now, there is no telegram. ”
Tang Dujin knew that he couldn't die if he didn't want to die today: "How are you going to let me die?" ”
"Suicide!"
"Give me a pill of poison."
"That's not going to work." Wu Jingyi shook her head: "Young Master Meng is a smart person, when he sees you committing suicide by taking poison, he will definitely wonder where your poison came from." So you'll write a suicide note first, and then ......"
She looked up at the roof.
Tang Dujin immediately understood: "Okay, okay, I should have died when I was in Taihu Lake, now that so many big people want my life, can I still live?" ”
He stood up tremblingly, took out a pen and paper, and after a moment of thought, wrote:
"Shaoyuan, my brother, what happened, I want to live, but I can't sin you to make me live alone. Go today, like the sea is deeply wronged, and there will be no more snow. First, take care, you should inform me on the day of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War.
Tang Dujin is a masterpiece. ”
When you're done, put down your pen and tear the sheets together and knot them together.
When he put his head in the hood, he asked, "Are you never afraid to do these things?" ”
"Never scared." Wu Jingyi looked at him: "In order to protect Meng Shaoyuan, I will do anything." Everyone has their own mission, and your mission is to die. Mr. Tang, I'm sorry, I have no personal grudges with you. ”
Tang Dujin gritted his teeth and stepped on the stool under his feet.
From beginning to end, Wu Jingyi was watching.
She watched Tang Dujin hang himself, watched Tang Dujin struggle, and watched Tang Dujin gradually stop moving.
She stood up and put away her gun.
I'm sorry, Mr. Tang.
She took one last look at Tang Dujin's corpse.
Shanghai, you can't live without Meng Shaoyuan, so vent your grievances on me.
Wu Jingyi opened the door, quietly glanced outside, and after making sure that there was no one, she calmly left here.
Manager Ge didn't see herself, she deliberately avoided leaving.
I have never been to an international hotel, and I have never seen Tang Dujin.
Everything she did was for Meng Shaoyuan and the military commander!
