Traveling through the Republic of China to become a special agent, the system is very easy for me - Chapter 547 Yu Dehai confessed

As soon as he finished speaking, two of Yan Ping's men rushed forward, picked up the wet whips and started whipping Yu Dehai.

At first Yu Dehai said nothing, but after being whipped a dozen times he started howling.

Yuan Ye watched coldly, thinking that this guy would confess soon.

After dozens of lashes, Yu Dehai could no longer bear it and cried out miserably:

"I admit it, stop fighting, I admit it!"

Even Zhang Wu, who was tied to another pillar, couldn't bear to see Yu Dehai begging for mercy and looked at him with contempt.

He surrendered before the real torture even started. He was even worse than me. At least I had to endure three severe tortures before I could not hold on any longer.

Yuan Ye shouted to stop the thugs and walked in front of Yu Dehai.

"Chief Yu, wouldn't it have been better if you had done this earlier? Why do you have to suffer this unjustly?

You must tell us how you conspired to assassinate Mayor Su, and don't hide anything!"

Yuan Ye said coldly.

"I said, I said."

Yu Dehai no longer cared about so much, and turned over the names of more than 10 people who had attended the meeting at his house last night, admitting that they were also involved in the conspiracy to assassinate Su Xiwu.

He knew very well that since Yuan Shikai knew that these people were holding a meeting in his house, he could not have been unaware of who they were and what they were plotting. Chai Ruhai must have told him.

What he wanted was to frame these people as accomplices in the murder of Mayor Su, although he knew very well that these people did not participate. They were just discussing how to collect black materials against Su Xiwu, frame him with crimes, and jointly complain to Mr. Wang.

This must be Su Xiwu's intention, and his purpose is to kill all these people.

This, of course, requires his accusation.

Yu Dehai knew that if he did not confess as Yuan Shikai wished, he would be beaten to death and endure great pain.

Rather than this, since I will die anyway, I might as well suffer less and feel sorry for these people.

In fact, it’s good this way. There’s someone to accompany him on the road to the underworld, so he doesn’t feel lonely.

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Yuan Ye asked Yu Dehai to sign his confession and put his fingerprints on it.

With this confession, the next step is to arrest the people mentioned in the confession.

He looked at his watch. Time passed quickly and it was already past 6 o'clock in the morning. In two more hours, these people should have gone to work at the city government.

Yuan Ye thought that these people probably didn't know what was going on. Instead of wasting time and effort to arrest them at their homes, it would be better to wait for them to go to work, then lie in wait in the city government and capture them one by one.

Yuan Ye ordered all team members involved in this operation to keep it strictly confidential and not disclose it to anyone. He asked Yan Ping to supervise the implementation. If anyone was found to have leaked the information, they would be severely punished.

Yuan Ye asked Zheng Chao and his team members to take some time to rest, and then rush to the city government with him before nine o'clock in the morning to start the arrest operation.

After Yuan Ye finished giving the order, he called Su Xiwu and reported on the arrest and interrogation of Yu Dehai, as well as the next action plan.

Su Xiwu was very happy to see that the progress was going smoothly. He agreed with Yuan Ye's idea of ​​arresting the suspects at the municipal government, and he would also rush to the municipal government in advance.

Su Xiwu has already made up his mind to take this opportunity to complete the personnel replacement plan today.

After he was ousted by Fu Quan'an, all his cronies who were replaced by Fu Quan'an would be reinstated one by one. He had already informed these people yesterday.

Zhang Chengxian, his secretary and head of the secretariat when he was mayor, went to Japan for further studies after he stepped down. After he became acting mayor, he immediately telegraphed him and asked him to return to Shanghai. Just last night, the ship he was on arrived in Shanghai, and he will come to see him today.

He admired and trusted Zhang Chengxian very much. In his eyes, Zhang Chengxian was also a very smart and capable person. He was the son of a fellow townsman and old friend, and he knew him inside and out. With Zhang Chengxian back to his side, together with Yuan Shikai, these two young and promising people would become his right-hand men, and he would be able to govern more easily.

After Yuan Ye finished the call, he hurried to the VIP room to rest. He woke up after two hours of sleep. Zheng Chao also came to his room at this time, waiting for his order to set off.

When Yuan Ye saw Zheng Chao, he suddenly remembered the last time he and Gu Yan sent the Red Party members to northern Jiangsu. The man he met in Gaoyou looked very much like Zheng Chao. At that time, he suspected that it was Zheng Chao's brother who joined the New Fourth Army, because Zheng Chao once told him that his brother's name was Zheng Yue, and he had no news after joining the New Fourth Army.

Both his parents were killed by the Japanese, and his brother is his only relative in this world.

He was very worried about his brother and didn't know if he was still alive.

Seeing that Yuan Ye didn't say anything, Zheng Chao glanced at him and started drawing on the paper with a pen.

Zheng Chao felt very strange but didn't dare to say anything. He just stood aside and waited.

All I could hear was the sound of the pen moving on the paper, and soon a portrait sketch appeared on the paper.

Yuan Ye picked it up and examined it for a while, nodded with satisfaction, then handed the portrait to Zheng Chao and said with a smile:

"Take a look, do you know this person?"

Zheng Chao didn't know what Yuan Ye meant, so he quickly took the portrait. After just one look at it, he was stunned.

Isn’t this his brother Zheng Yue?

This painting is so lifelike, and his appearance is exactly the same as my brother's, as if it was a photo taken of him with a camera.

He said to Yuan Ye excitedly:

"This is my brother. Have you ever seen him? Is he still alive?"

He guessed that Yuan Ye must have seen his brother, otherwise it would be impossible for him to draw him out of thin air, and to draw him so much like him.

Yuan Ye nodded, and then whispered:

"He is still alive. I met him in Gaoyou, near the Red Party base.

You may be curious about why I met your brother.

It’s a long story. I have a younger sister, and Captain Gu’s sister, who, like your brother, also joined the Red Party.

Because of work needs, I and several other people were to be sent to the base in northern Jiangsu. When I learned about this, I was worried about the safety of the journey, so I decided to personally escort them to northern Jiangsu with Captain Gu.

After being safely delivered, the handover was completed in Gaoyou, near the Subei base. The person who handed over to us was your brother. I saw that he looked very similar to you, and I had heard you talk about him before, so I suspected that he was your brother.

When I saw you just now, I suddenly remembered this incident, so I drew this portrait based on my memory to confirm for you that I know you miss your brother very much.

Now it seems that he is indeed your brother, so you don’t have to worry about it anymore.

However, your brother did not know the identities of Captain Gu and I, and thought they were just family members of his comrades. He used his connections to do this because he was worried about his sister's safety.

In fact, I didn't do this entirely for my sister. I also wanted to help the Red Party. As long as it was an anti-Japanese team, I would be willing to lend a helping hand within my ability.

However, this matter and our identities must be kept strictly confidential. After all, the relationship between the Kuomintang and the Red Party is delicate, and this is also for our safety. What's more, you, me, and Captain Gu all have relatives in the Red Party.

The reason I told you this is because I think you are trustworthy, so I don’t think there is any need to hide it from you. You certainly know what to do.”
