Chapter 921: The One-Armed Thief
Now there are still a few days before Wang Jingwei runs away, and there is no news from Kitaoka Mazhi for the time being.
Just take advantage of this time to solve this case easily.
Hehe, when you meet Young Master Meng, I will count you as unfavorable.
Xiao Zhong went back to Meng's garden.
I don't know how Zhu Yanni and the others will react when they see the real coffin.
No matter.
Meng Shaoyuan called Li Zhifeng and asked him to take two guards in plainclothes to quietly follow him to protect him.
Who is this spy and where does he like to go?
He's clear.
He changed into a suit himself, didn't use a car, and went out to call a rickshaw.
"George Mackay's Teahouse."
As soon as he got in the car, Meng Shaoyuan said.
The rickshaw driver ran fast.
In front of George Mackay's teahouse, Meng Shaoyuan got out of the car, paid the fare, and walked into the teahouse slowly.
The teahouse was already full of people.
Chongqing people like to drink tea and like to put a dragon gate array.
This teahouse was opened by an American, hence the strange name.
That spy, as long as he is not on duty every day, will definitely bring his girlfriend here for tea.
His code name:
"One-armed thief"!
Fuck, who got such a codename?
This guy was originally a bandit, and one of his arms was cut off, but he was later absorbed by officers and soldiers and became an officer in the Sichuan army.
The code name "One-Armed Thief" because he is missing an arm?
This IQ.
Meng Shaoyuan found the target at a glance.
A guy wearing the uniform of a major of the Sichuan Army, with only one arm, was there to talk and laugh with a young and beautiful young lady.
One-armed thief!
The woman sitting next to him is his girlfriend Xu Zhen!
He talks about piano, is fluent in English, and is said to have a close relationship with Wang Jingwei.
She played a crucial role in solving the one-armed robbery.
Not to mention, the one-armed thief can also speak English very fluently.
Where did a bandit learn English?
No wonder Xu Zhen will become her girlfriend, the two have a common language.
Meng Shaoyuan walked over slowly.
As he passed their table, his hand reached out inadvertently, and he knocked the cigarette case that the one-armed thief had put aside to the ground.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry."
Meng Shaoyuan hurriedly bent down in a panic and picked up his cigarette case, but the cigarette case was knocked open, and a few cigarettes were scattered on the side.
"I'm sorry, sir." Meng Shaoyuan looked frightened.
The one-armed thief originally wanted to be angry, but he looked at Xu Zhen: "Forget it." ”
"I'm such a clumsy guy." Meng Shaoyuan seemed to be talking to himself, and a sentence of skillful English came out.
This time suddenly made the one-armed thief and Xu Zhen interested.
Xu Zhen couldn't help but say in English as well: "Sir, your English is really good." ”
"Ah, you speak English too?" Meng Shaoyuan looked very surprised.
"Can't women speak English?" The one-armed thief said coldly.
"Sir, your English is pretty good, too." Meng Shaoyuan complimented: "I didn't expect to meet the two of you in this small teahouse, it's really my honor." ”
Your sister's.
Three Chinese, speaking English in a tea house in Chongqing?
Meng Shaoyuan took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket: "Sir, look, I soiled your cigarettes, this is what I compensated you for, I hope you don't mind." ”
"Egyptian smoke." The one-armed thief's face looked much better: "In this world, it is not easy to get Egyptian cigarettes. ”
"You've got a lot of vision." Meng Shaoyuan smiled.
Xu Zhen looked into the teahouse: "Sir, there are many people in the teahouse, I don't think there is any vacant space, why don't you sit at a table with me." ”
"Ah, that's my pleasure." Meng Shaoyuan didn't sit down immediately: "Sir, can I sit here?" ”
This is enough to give the one-armed thief face, he nodded.
"I'm from another province." As soon as he sat down, Meng Shaoyuan ordered tea and asked the guy to add two snacks: "It's such an honor to meet you here." The surname is Zhu, I wish Yanfan. I must invite you to this meal today. ”
"You're so polite, Mr. Zhu." Xu Zhen also introduced: "My name is Xu Zhen, and he is Lu Wupeng. ”
"Miss Xu, Chief Lu." Meng Shaoyuan finally knew the name of the one-armed thief.
Lu Wupeng saw that he was Egyptian again, and he was generous, and his attitude became a lot kinder: "Mr. Zhu came to Chongqing to visit friends, or did he come to do business?" ”
"Make a small deal." Meng Shaoyuan said politely: "I am in the leather business, ah, there are wars everywhere, the world is difficult, and the business is not good, so I came to Chongqing to try my luck." Ah, Sir Lu, Miss Xu, today you and I hit it off at first sight, why don't I visit the house another day, I have two good leather goods, please smile. ”
"Then how can we, we just know Mr. Zhu, how can we receive Mr. Zhu's things?" Xu Zhen hurriedly said.
Lu Wupeng didn't care.
After the outbreak of the war, the government moved the capital to Chongqing, and more and more businessmen came to Chongqing. However, the vast majority of them have no foundation in Chongqing, it is difficult to do business, and they are also blackmailed by local ruffians.
What to do? Find a backer.
If you want to find a backer, of course, you have to give gifts, and Lu Wupeng himself has received gifts from others.
"I wish the boss don't have to be too polite." Lu Wupeng wanted to get two leather goods: "As for the gift, it's free, I see that there is a chance to come to my place for a light meal." ”
Xu Zhen suddenly said, "Wu Peng, didn't you ask me to go to your place for dinner tomorrow?" I wonder if I would like to invite Mr. Zhu to come with me tomorrow, right? ”
"Okay, I don't know if Boss Zhu is willing?"
"Oh, I can't ask for it, I can't ask for it." Meng Shaoyuan said repeatedly.
Everything is planned.
……
Xu Zhen returned home, rested for a while, played the piano, and suddenly remembered the knock on the door outside.
"Who?"
Xu Zhen didn't dare to open the door easily.
"Miss Xu, it's me."
Mr. Zhu?
How did he get here?
Xu Zhen opened the door suspiciously: "Mr. Zhu, how do you know that I live here?" ”
Meng Shaoyuan smiled slightly: "Miss Xu, I want to know where people live, it's very simple." You see, I'm not malicious, can I go in and talk to you? ”
Xu Zhen hesitated, but still asked Meng Shaoyuan to come in.
"Mr. Zhu, what do you want to drink?"
"No need."
"Mr. Zhu, is there something wrong with you coming to me?"
"Miss Xu, my name is not Zhu Yanfan." Meng Shaoyuan said lightly: "My surname is Meng, Meng Shaoyuan." I'm a military commander. ”
Military commanders?
Secret agent?
Xu Zhen was shocked.
"Miss Xu, everything today, including the meeting with you, was arranged by me." Meng Shaoyuan went straight to the point: "Do you know who your boyfriend Lu Wupeng is?" ”
Xu Zhen was vigilant: "Of course I know, he is an officer." ”
"Officer?" Meng Shaoyuan sneered: "Yes, he is an officer, but he is also a traitor!" ”
"Impossible!" Xu Zhen shouted loudly: "Wu Peng will not be a traitor, I know Wu Peng." ”
"You don't understand!" Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "I am a military commander, if there is no reason, how can I target you?" I found you with ample evidence. ”
Xu Zhen's whole person became at a loss: "Are you looking for me?" What do you want me to do? ”
She simply couldn't believe that her boyfriend, a major officer of the National Revolutionary Army, would be equated with a traitor.
Meng Shaoyuan quickly said: "There is a very important piece of information, which is still hidden in Lu Wupeng, and we need your cooperation to find this information." ”
"No, no." Xu Zhen's face turned pale: "I won't do this kind of thing, I won't." ”
"You have to do it." Meng Shaoyuan's tone became slightly more serious: "This is the duty of you, a Chinese!" Do you know what Lu Wupeng did? He used his authority to constantly provide information to the Japanese, and Chongqing was constantly bombed, but our artillery unit was never able to shoot down a Japanese plane, and that was Lu Wupeng's 'credit'! ”
Xu Zhen was stunned.
How so? How could Lu Wupeng do such a thing?
"Our compatriots are bleeding! Our land is burning! ”
Meng Shaoyuan had never said this kind of truth that was close to a speech before, but this is the best way to treat a person like Xu Zhen, and the more impassioned the better:
"Miss Xu, our soldiers fought bloodily with the Japanese army on the front line to defend this land, but in the rear, there are scum like Lu Wupeng! Our dead soldiers will not turn a blind eye, and our dead people will not turn a blind eye!
Lu Wupeng is your boyfriend, but by your side, standing is your people and your country! Help this country, help this suffering country! ”
Meng Shaoyuan fully mobilized his emotions.
Maybe, after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, he can still be a speaker?
Xu Zhen's tears flowed slowly.
After a long time, she asked with difficulty, "What do you want me to do?" ”
It's done!
Sure enough, like the history she knew, in the face of her boyfriend and national righteousness, Xu Zhen still chose the latter!
Slowly.
Meng Shaoyuan suddenly thought of a question.
The one-armed thief was a spy planted by Wang Jingwei, and after he was captured, Xu Zhen was about to leave Chongqing for a foreign country, but unfortunately on her way to the airport, she was killed by Wang Jingwei's secret agents.
The one who commanded the assassination mission was officially Wang Jingwei's minion Ren Daowu.
Now, Ren Daowu has been killed by his own Lao Tzu, so will Xu Zhen still die?
Xu Zhen can survive, has history been changed again?
What are the consequences?
Will the things you are familiar with change?
Will the butterfly effect happen again?
Meng Shaoyuan was a little confused.
He calmed down his emotions: "From now on, you just act as if nothing has happened, and when you go to Lu Wupeng tomorrow, you must keep full composure, just like usual, any mistake will be noticed by Lu Wupeng." ”
"I see, I know." Xu Zhen muttered.
Meng Shaoyuan stood up: "You have to remember that you will become a national hero!" You lost your boyfriend, but you saved Chongqing and your lovely and suffering country! ”
