Chapter 33 Chapter Thirty-Three Poisoned Female Spy

"First, don't use torture on her. I know her character, she is not afraid of death; second, before this, she has suggested to me many times that if there is such a day, she hopes to die with dignity; third, I can't delay the time for too long, because waiting to die is the cruelest thing in the world, mental torture is far more painful than physical torture, I ask the organization to give me some face!" Zhang Zui thought for a while, looked at Chu Liyan, and said, "These three requirements are not excessive. You don't need to ask the organization for instructions. I can make the decision."

Li Zizhong crossed his legs and sat on the rattan chair, reading the latest issue of "Spring Voices" by the desk lamp. At this time, Fei Yuting walked into the study and closed the door and asked, "What's the news?" "On April 21, Mao Zedong and Zhu De issued a general order to march across the country." Li Zizhong pointed to the article in the newspaper and said. "It's already May, and the news is only now, isn't it too late!" Fei Yuting said dissatisfied. "The "Spring Voice" has been interrupted for a while, and it has just been restored. Alas, if we don't read this kind of newspaper, we will all be blind and deaf." Li Zizhong sighed.

"The Kuomintang is at the end of its rope, and the only remaining trick is to deceive us by blocking news. Respect yourself, time is running out, you must hurry up to contact the Communist Party, which will benefit us in the future. Don't ignore one more thing, the military spies are crazy , Beware of their actions." Fei Yuting said. "Don't worry about this. The underground party in Jiangnan City attaches great importance to my safety. Their central task is to protect me, and they have installed insiders within the military command. Once they have any intentions, the news will be fed back to me in time. Lao Fei , you call Adjutant Liang right away, I want to have a good talk with him."

Fei Yuting walked out of the study and went to the living room to make an internal call. After a while, Liang Tianshu came to Li Zizhong's study. "Teacher, call me so late..." Liang Tianshu saw the newspaper in Li Zizhong's hand, and he understood it in his heart. He stopped asking and sat down opposite Li Zizhong. "Adjutant Liang, I read the newspaper carefully. I was very moved and my conviction was strengthened. Time waits for no one. Can you arrange a suitable time for me to meet with your superior?" Li Zizhong looked at Liang Tianshu. "Master, what we are waiting for is your words, the time and place should be decided by you." Liang Tianshu said.

"The time... Let's set it to tomorrow night. Where do you think the location is good? What other preparations do I need to make?" "Of course the location should be the safest place, how about here?" Liang Tianshu looked at Li Zizhong inquiringly. "Of course it's good to choose this place. Safety is not a problem on my site, but is your superior willing to come?" "You don't have to worry about this, my superior has long wanted to visit you." Liang Tianshu took a breath comfortably, "As for the preparations, there's no need, contact first, and my superior will make arrangements."

"Then it's settled. Tomorrow my wife will burn incense and worship Buddha. You inform your superiors to wait in the Buddhist hall of the Earth Temple. You also go together. Stay outside for a little longer and come back after dark." Li Zizhong said. "Okay, I will do it." Liang Tianshu nodded. Zhang Zui, Chu Liyan, and Ding Yizu were sitting in the duty room, all three of them were waiting with great anticipation for the appraisal results. At 8:30 in the morning, Li Ruyou finally came back, carrying a large bag containing notes, ledgers or notes of hundreds of people.His expression was very relaxed, and everyone knew the result at a glance. He walked into the office, put the big bag on the table, and just took out a notebook of "Daily Expenses" and handed it to Zhang Zui.

"The identifications of the six handwriting experts are consistent. First of all, I want to tell you a piece of good news—there are no suspects among the five main members of our crime detection team." Li Ruyou easily moved his eyes from Chu Liyan to On Ding Yizu, upon hearing the news, Chu Liyan and Ding Yizu breathed a sigh of relief.Li Ruyou went on to say, "The suspect is—Commander Chu, you have to be mentally prepared!" "I know, I'm mentally prepared." Chu Liyan lowered his head after speaking, the pain in his heart was self-evident. The "Daily Expenses" in Zhang Zui's hand was originally Li Man'e's, and there were six experts' appraisal evidence in it. He read it carefully, and took the notebook to compare it with the information. He had to face the facts. Definitely—Li Man'e is the underground party member "Primary Bird"...

"Let's take a look at it." Zhang Zui handed the notebook and the information note to Chu Liyan with a heavy heart.Chu Liyan took a cursory look and gave it to Zhang Zui, "Old Chu, I want to know how you plan to deal with this matter." "I don't have the right to speak, and everything depends on your arrangement, the team leader." Chu Liyan said sadly, "My family is unfortunate, and I have already felt ashamed of the organization." "Don't blame yourself. You contributed a lot to the cracking of this case. I will ask my superiors for your credit. I am deeply moved by your great feat of killing relatives. After all, she is your most beloved person. I have to ask for your opinion on how to deal with her." Zhang Zui looked at Chu Liyan and said.

"If it can be done, I have three requirements." Chu Liyan raised his head and said. "You said, as long as it doesn't violate the organizational principles, I will try my best to satisfy you." "First, don't use torture on her. I know her character, she is not afraid of death, and an underground party member at her level can no longer make her speak by torture. Using torture will only increase her physical pain and resentment towards me. ; secondly, before this, she had suggested to me many times that if one day, she hoped to die with dignity, she asked me to do her this favor for the sake of the relationship between husband and wife for many years; It took too long, because waiting to die is the cruelest thing in the world, mental torture is far more painful than physical torture, I ask the organization to give me this face!"

Zhang Zui thought for a while, looked at Chu Liyan, and said, "These three requirements are not excessive. You don't need to ask the organization for instructions. I can make the decision." "Thank you, thank you, Team Leader Zhang, for your success." Chu Liyan stood up and bowed respectfully to Zhang Zui. Luo Su sat on the bed in the basement and read books for entertainment. Liang Tianshu told him that he lived here the night Xiao Zhu and Xiao Ma died. He didn't sleep that night, and he couldn't sleep. .He didn't sleep for more than ten hours until Li Zizhong came in the next day to tell him the situation outside.

Luo Su just came here in Li Zizhong's special car, and only Mrs. Li and Liang Tianshu were with him.Luo Su glanced at his watch, it was already 8 o'clock in the evening, he estimated that Li Zizhong would come over soon.Just as I was thinking, there was the sound of a key unlocking the lock. "I'm sorry, but you were wronged by choosing such a place." As Li Zizhong said, he grabbed Luo Su's hand with both hands, and Liang Tianshu, who was walking behind, closed the door. "Mr. Li is too polite. In the words of our chairman, 'revolution is not about treating guests to dinner, or making articles, or painting and embroidery, and it cannot be so elegant'. It is safe to choose such a place! Sit, everyone." Luo Su called Li Zizhong Get to your side. Li Zizhong looked at Luo Su seriously, and said after a while, "Mr. Luo, you look familiar!" "I'm a tailor. I once made cheongsams for your lady." Luo Su smiled kindly. "I remember, I remember, I asked Lieutenant Liang to invite you to the house." Li Zizhong suddenly realized, "It's really fate, who would have thought that you were the leader of the Communist Party at that time!" "Our Communist Party only has different positions. There are no high officials or small officials. There are only differences in the division of labor, and there is no distinction between high and low." "Yes, this is the magic weapon for your party to win! Mr. Luo, I am looking forward to you. If I can't catch up, I will become a sinner through the ages. Thanks to my ancestors who appeared under the spring, and bless me to finally get you I'm looking forward to it, now I'm going to hand over the Jiangnan Independent Division to you!" "To be serious, the Jiangnan Independent Division belongs to you, and it belongs to the millions of people in Jiangnan City. Today we have made a start. In the past few days, you will sort out the army's organizational structure, officer roster and archives, and then hand it over to Comrade Liang Tianshu, I will report to the Party Central Committee in time." "Thank you, thank you very much." "There is another problem. The military command agents are very rampant. For your safety, we specially arranged for a comrade to protect you secretly. He has a code name——" "'Primaria'." Li Zizhong said. "Yes, it's him. I'll tell you the secret code to connect with him when the time comes. In other words, don't believe anyone's words from now on. Only Primo Bird's arrangement is the safest." Luo Su warned. "Thank you, you guys are too thoughtful for me." "Mr. Li, your life is precious. The lives and properties of millions of people in Jiangnan City are tied to you. We dare not be careless!" Luo Su said seriously. Chu Xiangxue sat outside the confinement room, separated from Li Man'e by an iron fence. The iron grids of the fence are very thin, and each grid can enter and exit the rice bowl, so there is no need to unlock it when delivering food and water. "Actually, I should have called you aunt a long time ago. We are a family in private except for business. Now I am talking to you as my own family-I really don't understand why you want to be an underground party? You left my uncle's In those 10 years, does reality have to force you to go down that road?" Chu Xiangxue was talking to Li Manye patiently, but Li Manye ignored her, acting like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water, until Chu Xiangxue said When it was enough, she spoke. "Xiangxue, I beg you for one thing. You are doing my family a favor. I want to see Liyan. I have something to say to him." "Auntie, maybe I can help you with other things, but I can't help you with this one. My uncle doesn't want to see you. He thinks it's too cruel for him, so he chooses to run away, out of sight." "Is this what Liyan really said? Is it because Zhang Zui didn't allow him to see me? I know, the last time I was locked up here and Liyan came to see me, I caused him trouble. Really, this time I won't make trouble , I’ve already thought it through, and I want to have a good talk with him.” "It's too late to talk to him now. No matter what you want to say, it won't work. It will only increase each other's pain. Team leader Zhang didn't stop him. He cares about you very much. I hope my uncle can see you. Yes, you should understand him." "Well, since he doesn't want to see me, I can only admit it. I want to write a few words to him. Can you get me a pen and paper?" "I can help you with this, and promise to give him what you wrote. Do you write it now? Or talk about it another day?" "I want to write now. You go get a pen and paper. I promise I won't escape. I can't escape from such a strong iron fence. I'm not Monkey King." Chu Xiangxue went to the nearest place and asked for toilet paper and pencils, and Li Man'e took them and fell down on the plank to write. When it was time for dinner, the sound of leather shoes hitting the floor came from the aisle, and the sound stopped abruptly halfway. Chu Xiangxue looked up, only to find that the person delivering the meal was not the usual kitchen soldier, but Li Ruyou ——She was just wondering when the kitchen soldiers bought leather shoes to wear.Li Ruyou winked at Chu Xiangxue and waved again, indicating that he had something to say in private and that Li Man'e could not hear it.Chu Xiangxue glanced at the confinement room and saw that Li Manye was still writing quickly, not paying attention to the outside, so she walked towards Li Ruyou. Li Ruyou's rice basket contained braised pork and chicken soup, which should be relatively rich. He whispered into Chu Xiangxue's ear, "This is specially made for Li Man'e by order of Team Leader Zhang. You have to watch her eat it." When Li Ruyou said this, Chu Xiangxue understood it all in her heart, she took the meal basket, and Li Ruyou told her again before leaving. Chu Xiangxue returned to the door of the confinement room, coughed lightly, and seeing that Li Man'e didn't respond, she called out, "Dinner is ready!" "Wait a while." Li Man'e continued to write without raising her head. After a few more minutes, Li Man'e finally finished writing. She read it, changed a few words, folded it carefully, and handed it to Chu Xiangxue: "Excuse me gone." "You're welcome, it's easy to do." Chu Xiangxue took it and put it in her underwear pocket, handed over the food basket and said, "Let's eat." Li Man'e stretched out her hand from the grille and took the food. Chu Xiangxue didn't follow Li Ruyou's instructions and watched Li Man'e eat the food, but walked out of the aisle and leaned against the door to watch the clouds and the sun in the sky... She didn't go back until there was a shout from the confinement room—— At this time, Li Man'e fell face down on the ground, white foam flowed from the corner of her mouth, and the dishes, chopsticks and leftovers were scattered all over the floor... If it is not Sunday, there is almost no business in the Juyuan Ballroom.Therefore, employees only need to say hello to the foreman and go out to go shopping or shopping.Since Zhang Zui greeted Li Yonghong, Pan An has been promoted to foreman, and he doesn't need to ask for leave if he wants to go out. This morning, Pan An was going to go to the leather shoe store. His new leather shoes didn't fit well, so he wanted to change a pair.Just as he was going out, Li Yonghong stopped him and took him to the office.Li Yonghong is very polite, without the slightest attitude of a boss. Usually, he is always condescending and bossy to his subordinates. "Xiao Pan, I didn't expect you to have such a famous cousin in Jiangnan City. Can you tell Brother Li what he does?" Li Yonghong put on a flattering smile. At this point, Pan An can no longer tell the truth. If Li Yonghong knows that he has nothing to do with Director Liang, Li Yonghong will change his face immediately, and his life will be difficult in the future.Therefore, this lie has to be extended, but fortunately Director Liang himself admits it.Facing Li Yonghong's cross-examination, he also came up with a set of words to deal with it. "My cousin is engaged in a big business. He didn't disclose the specific job to me. He only told me that he has the supreme privilege. He wants to kill anyone. It's like killing a chicken. According to him, The people he killed can be loaded on a train." Li Yonghong shivered uncontrollably. Pan An believed what he said, because he saw with his own eyes an adjutant of the gendarmerie came to the ballroom alive, and after being taken to the VIP room, he turned into a dead body... They killed without blinking an eye , no longer scruples about the law at all.China is a privileged society, where one has power, one has the freedom of life and death. Power is the law, the will of the individual is the will of the country, and personal grievances are also the grievances of the country.In short, this kind of people is very terrifying. The bandits still have scruples about killing people. They kill people not only blatantly, but also under the banner of justice, so no matter what they can't offend him, they must curry favor with Pan An. "Xiao Pan, you must speak well of me in front of your cousin in the future. I will not treat you badly if you help me. Go ahead, I won't waste your time." Pan An felt very comfortable. Li Yonghong spoke to him in a flattering or submissive tone. He had scolded him too much in the past, but now he felt the pleasure of revenge. "Boss, I'm leaving." Pan An said flatly. "Okay, okay, you go, have fun." Li Yonghong said with concern. Pan An went out in a rickshaw, and changed into a pair of satisfactory shoes at the "Zumei Leather Shoe Store" without a hitch. After changing his shoes, Pan An didn't go back to the ballroom directly. He hadn't played in the street for a long time, and everything he saw was novel.After visiting a few shops, someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder a few times. When he looked back, he saw a familiar face, but he couldn't name it. "Xiao Pan, are you free to go shopping?" "I remember, you are our guest of Juyuan, where have you been all this time, why don't you come to dance?" "I'm on a business trip, do you remember me?" "Of course, if I remember correctly, you used to work in the Independent Division." Pan An said. "Just because of this sentence, I have to treat you to tea today." "It's too polite to ask you to spend money." Pan An didn't refuse. "You have a good memory, the car is coming, go to 'the old place' or 'heaven and earth'?" "It's up to the owner." Pan An followed him into the rickshaw. "Then 'heaven and earth', it seems to be closer to your fate." The rickshaw drove the two of them to the private room of the "Immortal in the Clouds". After Dr. Tea left, Pan An suddenly realized that there must be a reason for the other party to invite him to drink tea, so he couldn't help asking: "We used to meet often, but I don’t know my last and last name, can I…” "My name is Jiang Fangxiang, the former staff officer of the Independent Division. Have you heard of this name?" "You..." Pan An turned pale with shock. After calming down, his first thought was to leave as soon as possible, "No, I'm sorry, I'll go and make it easier." "You lied too clumsily. I know you want to slip away, but it doesn't allow it." Jiang Fangxiang said as he took out a gun and put it on the coffee table. "Hey..." Pan An's face turned pale with fright. "It's been published in the newspapers. I'm already a well-known person in Jiangnan City. There's no need to introduce what I do. Don't be nervous. I have no malicious intentions in looking for you today. As long as you are willing to tell the truth, I will never make things difficult for you." Jiang Fangxiang said . "As long as I know, I will tell the truth." Sweat beaded on Pan An's forehead. "At about 8:30 the night before yesterday, two of our comrades were found in the Juyuan Ballroom. Did you know about this?" Jiang Fangxiang asked. "I know, one ran away on the spot, and the other was taken to the third floor. He seems to be an adjutant of the Gendarmerie, surnamed Yang." "It's him, what happened when he went to the third floor?" "They didn't let us see it. Not long after, that Adjutant Yang turned into a corpse and was carried out." Pan An said timidly.
