Chapter 103: Remorse
Almost at the same time, the gun in Ni Xinju, who led people to round up, rang out! The bullet grazed Li Zhiyong's right arm, and the dagger was slightly off. Ni Xin ran to Li Zhiyong's side, and the dagger was deeply inserted into Li Zhiyong's left chest, and only the handle of the knife was exposed, which showed Li Zhiyong's determination to die! Fortunately, Ni Xin's shot left Li Zhiyong with a glimmer of life. Ni Xin shouted: "Drive the car directly in and send it to the hospital immediately." ”
After receiving the news, Li Shiqun immediately rushed to Suzhou, where he was on first-level alert in the church hospital. Seeing Li Shiqun, Ni Xin hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "Director, you are here." The subordinates are incompetent......"
"No more nonsense. Zhou Chengbin, a cunning lone wolf, it's not your fault that he didn't take the bait. Li Zhiyong, as the deputy station commander of the Shanghai Station and the former captain of the third column of the Loyal and Righteous National Salvation Army, is not light. I guess he knows a lot. But Zhou Chengbin knew that he went to the appointment instead of him, so he should be ready to respond by now. ”
"yes." Tian Chengxi interjected: "But his subordinates feel that even so, Li Zhiyong's value should not be underestimated, he has been following Zhou Chengbin for several years, if he strikes back, the blow to Zhou Chengbin will be fatal." Moreover, the third column of the Loyal National Salvation Army was a team that he single-handedly formed and brought out, and if he could surrender, this team was very likely to return to the Japanese Empire. Also, the subordinates suspect that Li Zhiyong may know who our internal undercover agent is. Zhou Chengbin can't order this undercover agent to retreat, right? ”
Li Shiqun nodded yes: "That's a good point." Whether Li Zhiyong confessed who this undercover agent was, or Zhou Chengbin ordered this undercover agent to retreat, it is a great good thing for us. When will Lee Ji-yong be interrogated? ”
Ni Xin smiled bitterly: "Director, now it's not a question of when he will be interrogated, but whether he can save his life." Doctors are resuscitating, and the operation has been going on for six hours. ”
Tian Chengxi said: "Director Li, just now General Ying Zuo Zhenzhao called to inquire about the situation, and the general said that he would immediately send someone to bring a new thing called 'hallucinogen', which is said to be used in interrogation. ”
Hallucinogens? What is this, I haven't heard of it. Li Shiqun replied: "Okay, I'll talk about it later." ”
In the early morning of March 7, in northern Jiangsu, the newly transferred station of the third column. Although the two subordinates who were assigned to the north gate of the Humble Administrator's Garden to receive Li Zhiyong did not witness the scene of Li Zhiyong's arrest, the military, police, and military commissions were all over the Humble Administrator's Garden afterwards, and the series of actions of searching the whole park for martial law could not hide from their eyes. Li Zhiyong has an accident! The two calmly followed the crowd through the inspection, and did not miss any flaws. Later, he mixed in with the crowd and inquired about the situation at the scene, and then left Suzhou overnight and returned to the station to report to Zhou Chengbin.
After receiving the report, Zhou Chengbin, who had been worried about Li Zhiyong's safety, sank in his heart, and succeeded Sun Wenkai to death, which was the second blow he received in a few days! Sun Wenkai sacrificed his life for the country, but Zhou Chengbin only had regret and grief. And Li Zhiyong was caused by his momentary greed, violating the latent discipline, and not breaking off relations with the Golden Dragon! How can he forgive himself for his mistakes and brute force? Li Zhiyong, it's for him to go on an adventure!
After being brutally interrogated, his heart, which had not been able to recover and could not bear the blow, Zhou Chengbin's chest was tight, and he was breathing heavily, but he couldn't slow down this breath. His face turned blue, and he sat on the stool weakly, beating his left chest weakly with his right hand, trying to relieve a little pain......
Dai Ru was frightened, and while helping to beat his back, he said, "Stationmaster Zhou, are you okay?" It's not your fault...... Come on, pour a glass of water...... Do you have first aid medication on you? ”
Zhou Chengbin was speechless, nodded with difficulty, and pointed to his coat hanging behind the door. Dai Ru hurriedly ran over and turned out nitroglycerin, Zhou Chengbin took a tablet, and it took a long time before he could speak: "Team Leader Dai, please contact Yang Shuang at this frequency and order him to arrange the transfer of personnel in accordance with discipline." There was another telegram to the headquarters of the Chongqing Bureau: Cheng Bin was ignorant, made a big mistake, and asked for punishment. ”
"Okay, I'll do it. Don't think about anything, you lie down for a while. ”
Zhou Chengbin was half-lying on a simple wooden bed, forcing himself to concentrate on the current situation: after receiving the telegram, Yang Shuang would arrange for the action team under the jurisdiction of the Shanghai Station, Meng Xiaojie's hospital, Qizhi and Qixian, two bookstores, of which Li Zhiyong knew about Qizhi Bookstore and Tiger Stove to be transferred. Li Zhiyong didn't know who No. 86 and the Divine Needle were, but he knew about Ruan Bo's Storage. It's not that I don't believe in Li Zhiyong, but under torture...... It is necessary to take the risk to tell Yang Shuang the identity of Ruan Bo and let him order Ruan Bo to evacuate.
Alas, the basic structure of the Shanghai station was completely disrupted, which would inevitably cause heavy losses to future work, and this was all his fault. and Lee Zhiyong...... How are you doing, brother? Where are you? What can I do to save you from the clutches?
Dai Ru walked in and said in a low voice, "Stationmaster Zhou, the matter has been done according to your instructions." I would like to apply to the bureau headquarters to stay here temporarily to help you get through this special period, and then withdraw to Chongqing after the bureau headquarters sends a new deputy station commander and column commander. Do you think it's okay? ”
Zhou Chengbin nodded weakly: "Okay, Team Leader Dai, thank you for your hospitality, and you are willing to share the hardships with me." One more thing, Ruan Bo, the sergeant of the security department of the Shanghai Municipal Police Department, is one of our people. You immediately telegraphed Yang Shuang again and contacted him to assist in evacuating. Speaking of this, Zhou Chengbin was out of breath, he let himself lie down, took a few deep breaths, and took another piece of nitroglycerin, and then he said with a strong spirit: "Team Leader Dai, please take care of the matter here, I must go back to Shanghai immediately." With that, he struggled to get up.
Dai Ru looked at Zhou Chengbin's gray face, sighed, and stopped: "What can you do when you go back to Shanghai like this?" If you believe me, I can do it for you. ”
Zhou Chengbin was powerless, and sat down on the bed again, so he had to say: "There is something related to the safety of No. 86. I want to ask you ......."
After listening to Zhou Chengbin's words, Dai Ru replied: "Please rest assured, Stationmaster Zhou, I will set off to sneak into Shanghai and carry out the mission." ”
On the afternoon of the 7th, in the Suzhou Garrison Headquarters, Ying Zuo Zhenzhao sent four armed agents to accompany a man in his early 50s who looked like a polite doctor to meet Li Shiqun. The man introduced himself: "The contemptible Kawashima Shigeaki, a professor of neurology at the Tokyo Medical College of the Imperial Japanese Empire, came to assist Director Li in the interrogation on the orders of General Kagesa. Please look after me in the future. ”
Li Shiqun couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Interrogation? What are you talking about now? The operation was over, the dagger was drawn, and the prisoner had not yet woken up. Alas, maybe it will never wake up. Even if he woke up by luck, he didn't dare to use torture for ten days and half a month. Didn't General Kagesa tell you about these situations? ”
Kawashima Shigeaki bowed slightly and replied, "I have already heard a brief introduction to the situation from General Kagesa Zhenzhao. If a criminal never wakes up, it is providential. As long as he can wake up, please rest assured Director Li, I have a way to make him confess. ”
Li Shiqun didn't believe this, but he didn't refute it, so he listened to it in vain. smiled and said, "Okay, I hope he can wake up, and let me wait for the opportunity to see what Kawashima-kun has to do and make him confess without being tortured." ”
At the same time, Liu Zezhi received a telegram from Zhou Chengbin from Xu Jianxue. He suddenly realized that on the fourth floor of the inn that day, the person Xu Jianxue saw wearing a long shirt and being with Ni Xin was the Golden Dragon!
This is not a difficult question to figure out, how could the Japanese give up after the counterfeit banknote manufacturing plant was blown up. The easiest clue to start with is transportation. Shanghai is not under the control of the Japanese puppet organs, and there are not many private ships that can meet the conditions. When making a plan, he and Zhou Chengbin agreed that once they succeeded, they would immediately cut off any contact with the Golden Dragon, so as to ensure the safety of Shanghai Station. I never thought that Zhou Chengbin carelessly lost Jingzhou, and was tempted by this batch of illusory Western medicines, and made a big mistake!
If Zhou Chengbin is a work mistake and it is excusable, then Liu Zezhi is harming the public with your own interests, and the crime is unforgivable! What have you done? As an undercover agent dealing with the devil, how can you indulge your feelings, get caught up in personal emotions and can't extricate yourself, and get dizzy and lose the most basic judgment?
Liu Zezhi, you are a soldier, an undercover agent with a heavy responsibility, the national crisis is at the head, and the military commander arranged for you to come to No. 76, not to let you fall in love. Such dereliction of duty, is it worthy of the sister who died tragically at the hands of Japanese beasts? I'm even more sorry for Le Yi and Xie Chengxin, who went first...... Liu Zezhi fell into deep self-blame, how can he make up for this? Where is Lee Ji-yong being held? Is he alive?
Xu Jianxue looked at his bad face and asked, "Zezhi, are you okay?" ”
"Listen to me, you must be silent lately, and when it is safe, I will go to you in person, or send Ah Wu to go. If you don't see the two of us, you won't be allowed to do anything even if something big happens. ”
"Okay, I remember, what about you?"
"You don't have to worry about me. I was tasked with going undercover in 76. Unless the headquarters of the Chongqing Bureau orders me to evacuate, I will die on the 76th. ”
