Zheng Chao was deeply moved by Yuan Ye's heartfelt words.
The captain not only told him that his brother was still alive, but also trusted him very much. He certainly could not let him down. For him, he had actually already decided to follow the captain in the future. No matter what the captain asked him to do, he would go through fire and water without hesitation.
Not only did the captain promote him, but he also helped him get revenge, and he wanted to repay the favor. More importantly, he was deeply impressed by the captain's talent and personal charm, and he cared about him and trusted him. Working with such a person was exactly what he had always dreamed of.
"Captain, thank you for telling me my brother is still alive. I will never let you down. I know what to do next."
Yuan Ye nodded and said:
“Don’t worry, you will definitely have a chance to see your brother.
Now go gather the people and we'll go to the city hall."
Zheng Chao took the order and left. Yuan Ye then came to Li Qunshi's office, ready to say hello and leave.
Li Qunshi originally wanted to participate in the special commissioner's interrogation, but the special commissioner said that Yan Ping's help was enough, so he would not disturb him and let him go back to sleep.
But Li Qunshi couldn't fall asleep while lying in bed because he had something on his mind.
Just when he and Yan Ping were waiting for the special envoy to come to the office in the early morning, Yan Ping told him something. Dong Qiyu took two people out early yesterday morning and has not returned yet.
He had a bad feeling that something might have happened to Dong Qiyu.
Because he had repeatedly warned him not to spend the night outside, of course for his safety.
He sent two people to follow him, on the one hand to assist and protect him, and on the other hand to monitor him. Li Qunshi was still not confident in him, so how could he allow him to stay out all night?
The two team members following him also received orders to bring Dong Qiyu back at night.
Even if Dong Qiyu didn't want to come back at night, the two team members would not agree.
The two team members would not disobey orders, but now none of the three of them have returned, and they haven't even called back. This abnormal phenomenon made Li Qunshi think that something might have happened to them. Not only him, but Yan Ping also thought so.
Li Qunshi asked Yan Ping to find out what had happened after daybreak.
While Yuan Ye was taking the time to sleep, Yan Ping did not dare to sleep and asked people to gather information everywhere.
Finally, I learned a shocking piece of news from the police station. Just around 9 o'clock last night, a shooting occurred on Jessfield Road. Three men in a black car were shot to death. The crime scene was actually not far from No. 76, less than one kilometer away.
Yan Ping realized that something had happened to these three people!
To further confirm, he went to the police station in person and verified the identities of the three dead, who were Dong Qiyu and the two team members who followed him.
He went to the place where the three people were killed, which was a street corner on Jessfield Road. It was obvious that someone had ambushed them at this place on purpose.
Judging from the position of the front of the car, it was heading towards No. 76, which means they were attacked when they were returning to No. 76. The location was well chosen. The car had to slow down when it arrived here. This was a completely premeditated action.
After Yan Ping came back, he immediately went to Li Qunshi's office to report to Li Qunshi. Although Li Qunshi had expected it, he was still surprised.
This undoubtedly shows that Dong Qiyu's whereabouts had been leaked, and the person who attacked him must be a Military Control Commission agent.
This once again confirms that there is a spy from the Military Control Commission in No. 76!
However, not many people knew that Dong Qiyu had gone out for action, and the scope was very small. Only a few people in the Operations Department knew about it, and even the special envoy did not know.
How did the insider know about this? Who is this insider?
There were no less than ten people who were suspects before, and they were all under close surveillance, but this traitor was very cunning and had not revealed his tracks yet.
This gave Li Qunshi and Yan Ping a headache. It was not easy to arrest everyone and torture them to extract confessions. They had done this before, but it was not very effective. After they were tortured into confessing, they would just make random accusations, which caused panic among the people and seriously affected their morale. This was a painful lesson.
While the two were discussing, Yuan Ye pushed the door and walked in. He had heard everything clearly from outside and was secretly happy. The Shanghai station successfully eliminated the traitor Dong Qiyu based on his suggestion, and the threat was eliminated.
What Yuan Ye didn't know was that this operation at the Shanghai station was actually full of twists and turns. Wang Tianwang and Xiang Shoushi arranged the Third Action Brigade to carry out this mission.
Captain Qian Youcheng asked his first team to carry out the specific task.
Before five o'clock in the afternoon, team leader Tu Liang led eight team members to the corner of Jisifei Road to set up an ambush.
But by 8pm, the target vehicle had not appeared. Seeing fewer and fewer pedestrians and vehicles on the road, Tu Liang was worried. Was the target not passing by here? Or had the target returned to No. 76 via another road?
Moreover, if they continue to wait like this, there will be fewer and fewer people on the road, and it will be easier for them to be discovered if they ambush here. How long do they have to wait?
Tu Liang and his team members had lost their patience and did not dare to evacuate without permission, so Tu Liang called for instructions.
Qian Youcheng had been waiting by the phone booth, waiting for news of the success of the operation. After waiting for three hours, he became a little impatient.
Finally, I received a call from Tu Liang, but he said that the target had not appeared and requested approval to evacuate.
Qian Youcheng thought about it and wondered if it was a misjudgment by the higher-ups and the target did not take this route. It was not impossible, perhaps the target did not play by the rules.
However, he did not agree to let the team evacuate immediately, but decided to wait for another hour. If the target had not appeared by 9 o'clock in the evening, it would not be safe to stay there. The team would evacuate immediately and continue the action tomorrow.
Tu Liang had no choice but to lead his team to continue burying
Lying there, another hour passed quickly, but the target still did not appear.
Tu Liang looked at the time and it was already 9 o'clock. There were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the road, and there were basically no vehicles to be seen.
He ordered a retreat, and as soon as the team members came out of their hiding place, they saw a car speeding towards them, with the bright light from the headlights coming closer and closer.
When Tu Liang took a look, a glimmer of hope suddenly ignited in his heart. Could it be this car?
Holding on to his last bit of hope, he decided to wait for the car to come over. If it was not the target vehicle, it would not be too late to retreat.
He waved his hand and asked the team members to hide. Soon the car came to the corner and slowed down. Tu Liang used the light to see the license plate of the car clearly. It turned out to be the target vehicle!
Tu Liang was overjoyed and was the first to rush towards the car. He raised his gun and started shooting. The team members also rushed out and fired fiercely at the car. There was a burst of gunfire.
Dong Qiyu had been running for a whole day and had gained nothing. He was exhausted. He was sitting in the back seat of the car with his eyes closed to rest when he suddenly heard gunshots. When he opened his eyes, he felt a sharp pain in his body. He had been hit by several bullets. Before he knew what was going on, he fell headfirst onto the seat.
The two people in the front seat were also shot dead on the spot and fell on their seats. The car lost control, rushed to the side of the road, and stopped only after hitting the wall.
Seeing that the three men had been shot dead, Tu Liang quickly led his team to evacuate. On the way, he found a telephone booth and reported the news of the successful assassination to Qian Youcheng.
Qian Youcheng waited for an hour and had no hope at this point. He was naturally overjoyed when he received the call. He was glad that he had made a wise decision and persisted for an hour, achieving unexpected results.
After receiving the report, Wang Tianwang finally felt relieved. The threat to Shanghai Station was finally eliminated.
This was thanks to Xincha's timely provision of information to him, which allowed Shanghai Station to once again turn danger into safety.
