Chapter 143: Not rescued
Yang Wenxu’s expression turned serious and he lowered his head slightly.
"Brother Xu, Wen Xu is very grateful to be promoted and transferred this time. If you have errands in Tianjin in the future, just ask."
Yang Wenxu gave him a big gift, and Xu Qingyun really helped him a lot this time.
He will leave the day after tomorrow and be transferred to the Tianjin Station as the intelligence team leader. The appointment of deputy station chief and other rewards will be given to him after Xu Qingyun concludes the case.
The deputy station commander is already stable, mainly because his military rank has been raised one level by the way.
It is always difficult to mention the rank of a school officer. Xu Zhanjie promised Yang Wenxu that he would help him operate it and let him go to Tianjin with peace of mind.
He has done a lot of credit this time, especially for seizing the radio station and the code book. With his previous achievements, he is very likely to be promoted to military rank.
"You're welcome. If anything happens in Nanjing from now on, you can come to me."
Xu Qingyun responded with a smile. He still has his old subordinates in Tianjin, including the Military Intelligence Department and the Police Department, as well as his brother. If there is really something, they can ask Yang Wenxu for help.
If he can't solve it, he can find Wu Shaoshu again.
After all, Wu Shaoshu was not at the same level as him, so there was no need to approach him for many small matters. Yang Wenxu took the initiative to show his kindness, and Xu Qingyun would not refuse.
"Okay, it's settled."
Yang Wenxu smiled brightly. He understood that Xu Qingyun had accepted his request for alliance, and the two would look after each other in the two places from now on.
Yang Wenxu came and left quickly.
He is going to Tianjin soon. Things in Nanjing must be arranged and handed over.
Tomorrow morning, his appointment will be issued. The new team leader will be the former deputy team leader. Xu Zhanjie will report it to the director. The director has agreed and the deputy will take over. The handover will be much simpler.
All the assistants in the team know each other very well, making it easier to get started after taking over.
Xu Qingyun came to the torture room.
The interrogation of the Japanese spy has been completed, but there is still one more person.
The special agent from the Party Affairs Investigation Department.
The Military Intelligence Department would not give the Party Affairs Investigation Department any good looks, so Xu Qingyun directly asked people to take him up. After entering the torture room, he ordered him to be hanged.
"Why did you come to assassinate me? Who sent you here?"
Xu Qingyun's questions frightened the agent of the Party Affairs Investigation Department to his pee. He already knew where this place was, the prison of his old rival, the Military Intelligence Department.
He is not afraid of falling into the hands of other units, as the Party Affairs Investigation Department has great power.
Not only targeting the red party, they can also arrest anyone who commits crimes among the fruit party.
But mainly for the crime of redness.
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, sir, we are chasing the Red Party, and we have no intention of assassinating you."
The little spy immediately explained that he understood that he could not be arrogant here, and that he was a man who could bend and stretch.
If he shows off his talents indiscriminately, he will suffer a lot.
At this time, he thought he was unlucky. Damn it, Lu Hanping ran to the assassination scene, causing him to be mistaken for the assassin.
"Torture."
Xu Qingyun didn't talk nonsense to him. The little agent was stunned, hurriedly begged for mercy, and soon screamed.
"I said no matter what, don't fight. Grandpa, we are all our own people..."
The little agent kept begging for mercy, and after beating him for ten minutes, Xu Qingyun asked someone to stop.
"Explain everything to me clearly."
Xu Qingyun's cold voice made the little agent shiver. Before Xu Qingyun could ask, he told everything.
Their team leader, Shi Qingbin from the Party Affairs Investigation Department, received a photo from Shanghai.
Shi Qingbin recognized the person in the photo.
These days of investigation, including reports from informants such as Coward, Xiao Zhao, etc., all the little spies have been recruited.
"Continue the torture."
After hearing what he said, Xu Qingyun stood up. The little agent was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that after he explained everything, the other party would still beat him.
In fact, he should be content. Xu Qingyun originally planned to use the electric chair on him, but because of his thorough explanation, Xu Qingyun only used conventional punishment to deal with him.
Arriving outside the door, Xu Qingyun lit a cigarette.
He doesn't smoke much, but he smokes occasionally.
Lu Hanping's identity can be completely confirmed. He is a member of the Red Party. He worked in Rehe in his early years and later escaped without knowing his whereabouts.
People from the Shanghai Party Affairs Investigation Office discovered him, but found out that he was no longer in Shanghai, so they sent the photos to the headquarters for filing. Shi Qingbin, who had seen him, noticed him and launched an investigation in Nanjing.
He is indeed in Nanjing.
Xu Qingyun was not thinking about this, but about the performance of the man he followed yesterday.
He didn't know Lao Liang's name at this time.
The man stopped specifically at the door of the bookstore and glanced at Lu Hanping. The bookstore was the address he had written in the newspaper before.
It was obvious that he was meeting Lu Hanping, but why didn't the two of them meet directly at that time?
Did Lu Hanping sense the danger and refuse to meet?
Not so, Xu Qingyun shook his head.
According to the secret agent's account, they actually discovered Lu Hanping's whereabouts today and started following him.
Yesterday they could not even confirm whether Lu Hanping was in Nanjing.
That man was his comrade, and he went out of his way to recognize Lu Hanping.
Thinking of the missing person notice he sent before, Xu Qingyun had already guessed that they were going to get in touch.
But there was no formal meeting for the first time.
Lu Hanping went out today as if he was having a meeting. That was the Party Affairs Investigation Office's judgment. Xu Qingyun immediately recalled Lao Lu's inexplicable answer before.
He asked Lao Lu what his name was, and Lao Lu said his name was Kite.
Kite, a name that Xu Qingyun is very familiar with.
Lao Lu said that his line was disconnected, but he could connect it.
In fact, what it really means is that he lost contact with the organization, but he has successfully contacted the organization.
But why did he say this to himself?
In other words, who was he going to tell these words to?
The person who asked Lu Hanping about his identity was Xu Qingyun. Xu Qingyun could confirm that Lu Hanping was definitely not really answering him. There were people he knew at the scene and were very close to him. They might also be members of the Red Party. He said that on purpose. Tell that person.
Xu Erxi?
Remembering Xu Erxi’s unusual behavior in the hospital, Xu Qingyun was slightly startled.
Xu Erxi is a member of the Xu family. Four generations of people have followed the Xu family. They were specifically given the surname Xu and became a member of their clan.
Xu Erxi is a member of the Red Party. What about his brother?
The only one who acted strangely today was Xu Erxi. If he and Lu Hanping didn't know each other, why did he go to check on Lu Hanping?
If they knew each other, everything would have a reasonable explanation.
But if Xu Erxi was gay, how could he hide it from his brother?
In other words, so is my brother.
Looking back on his brother's behavior on weekdays, this possibility is not impossible. He hates evil but is very kind to the people. He always thought that he was a conscientious policeman before. Xu Qingyun never thought much about it. Now, looking at it, it is very likely that his brother also has other identities.
A new problem appeared again. According to Lu Hanping's deliberate reminder, he was obviously out of touch with the organization. The person he contacted yesterday just looked at him and left, but Xu Erxi obviously knew him.
Didn't my brother and Xu Erxi join the organization very early, but were they newly developed by Lu Hanping?
After Lu Hanping escaped from Rehe, he hid in Tianjin and met his brother. After his brother was transferred to Nanjing, Lu Hanping also came here with him and continued to search for the organization.
Xu Qingyun is very aware of the current organizational predicament, suffering from the Party's massive encirclement and suppression, walking on grasslands and crossing snow-capped mountains.
Judging from this, everything is logical.
Fortunately, he was at the scene yesterday and he was the one handling the case. Others didn't know what was going on.
"Put it down."
Returning to the torture room, the agents of the Party Affairs Investigation Department had been knocked unconscious twice. Xu Qingyun had no sympathy for him. If it weren't for them, Lu Hanping would not be alive and dead now.
Party Affairs Investigation Department, men ran into Shi Qingbin's office. "Team leader, we found out that someone from the Military Intelligence Department was assassinated in the morning. They were on a mission there, so there were a lot of people there, but we don't know what the mission was. They sent Lu Hanping to the Third Hospital."
The third hospital is the closest to the scene, and it is a regular large hospital, so it is normal to send him there.
The other party was from the Military Intelligence Department, which gave him a headache.
Other departments are fine. If they ask for people directly, they will definitely give them face, but the Military Intelligence Department is inherently at odds with them.
Regardless of whether they have a reason or not, the other party cannot give it to someone easily.
"Let's go to the hospital first and call everyone in."
After a meeting, Shi Qingbin finally made up his mind to get the red man back first. He was the key.
As for the subordinates, we will talk about it later.
If you go directly to ask for someone, he can be beaten out. This can only be done by the section chief. If he can bring the red party back, he can make a great contribution, and the section chief will not blame him.
It's a pity that there is no follow-up credit.
With such a big movement, Lu Hanping was injured again. If he tried to arrest the people after the interrogation was successful, they would all run away.
"yes."
The subordinates were ordered to call for people. Their intelligence team had about the same number of people as the military intelligence department, both with more than 40 people.
Shi Qingbin took all his men and drove several cars straight to the hospital.
There were only two people from the Military Intelligence Department at the entrance of the hospital, smoking on the roadside. When they saw so many people driving in, they hurriedly ran inside.
Shi Qingbin got out of the car and his men quickly gathered.
"Where is he?" Shi Qingbin asked
"I'll ask"
The men ran out and came back quickly to find out that the person was still in the operating room. The operation had been going on for several hours.
It does take a long time and is definitely a major surgery.
"Go to the operating room."
As long as the person was not transferred to the Military Intelligence Office, Shi Qingbin decided to take the person to wait at the door of the operating room first. Once the operation was over, he would be picked up and transferred immediately.
Lu Hanping must be in his hands.
"Who are you?"
As soon as they arrived inside, several people were greeted at the door of the operating room, including Xu Qingyun's subordinates and operations department personnel who had stayed here.
Xu Qingyun left a lot of people behind, almost twenty people, but most of them were at Zuo Jinfang, and only eight people stayed in the operating room.
"The Party Affairs Investigation Division is handling the case, and it contains the red party we have been tracking for a long time."
Shi Qingbin said coldly, he knew it was hard to ask for help, but that didn't mean he was afraid of the Military Intelligence Office.
The people in the Party Affairs Investigation Department are indeed not afraid of them.
"These are our prisoners, please leave immediately."
A member of the Operations Department stood up and said sternly that he was aware of the grudges between the two departments.
"Get out of the way."
Shi Qingbin took out his pistol, and the people behind him fired their guns.
The people from the Military Intelligence Department immediately took out their weapons, and the scene suddenly became tense.
"If you rebel against us and shoot them, whoever dares to move will be shot to death."
Shi Qingbin shouted, he knew that there must be no submissive behavior at this time. There were more people than the other party. If he was intimidated by the other party, let alone meritorious service this time, he would probably lose his position as team leader when he returned.
Virgo knew that he was intimidated by the people from the Military Intelligence Department, and there were not as many people as them, so Virgo could not spare him.
The people behind Shi Qingbin came over to collect their guns. The people in the operations department did not dare to shoot. After shooting, they were able to kill several people on the other side, but they would definitely be wiped out.
"What are you doing?"
Xu Qingshi received the news and rushed over with his people. His people and the people from the Military Intelligence Department were all there.
Zuo Jinfang left Xu Erxi to take care of him.
"The Party Affairs Investigation Division is handling the case. Who are you?"
Shi Qingbin looked at Xu Qingshi. There was someone wearing a police uniform next to Xu Qingshi. Why were the police involved?
He didn't have any worries about the police. These police had always only assisted them and told them to go east but not to the west. If they dared to disobey orders, the people from the Party Affairs Investigation Department would deal with their upper-level leaders.
They will be equally unlucky then.
Xu Qingshi's heart tightened when he heard that the other party was from the Party Affairs Investigation Department.
My husband was targeted and injured by agents from the Party Affairs Investigation Department. These people actually chased him to the hospital.
He regretted not bringing all his men with him.
But it's useless to bring him here. First of all, he hasn't been the deputy director for long and doesn't have many subordinates he can use. No matter how many people he brings, they won't really go against the people of the Party Affairs Investigation Department for him.
Secondly he has no reason.
His younger brother and Zuo Jinfang were injured. He came over to see if it was okay, but he couldn't justify bringing too many policemen.
"What's the Party Affairs Investigation Department? We have important prisoners here. Please leave."
Xu Qingshi didn't speak, but Xu Qingyun's men next to him spoke. The people in the operating room were captured by their team leader. These people were obviously coming to rob people, and they would never give them to them.
"Shot them."
Shi Qingbin ignored him and prepared to repeat his old tricks.
"Let me see which of you dares."
Xu Qingshi immediately pulled out his gun, and the people from the Party Affairs Investigation Department immediately walked towards him.
"Bang."
Xu Qingshi fired, but it was upwards. Fortunately, they were not inside, they were all in the open space outside the operating room.
The operating room is on the first floor. There is a small hall inside that cannot accommodate so many people.
The people from the Party Affairs Investigation Department did not expect that the other party would dare to shoot, so they did not dare to move for a while.
The people around Xu Qingshi also pointed guns at them, but the members of the Operations Section who had been disarmed before lowered their heads.
Xu Qingshi's eyes were a little red. Even if he died here, he would never let the people from the Party Affairs Investigation Department take his husband away.
In the Military Intelligence Department, my husband was in the hands of his younger brother. He still had hope of rescuing people, but in the Party Affairs Investigation Department, there was almost no possibility of rescue.
Shi Qingbin was startled. He didn't expect that the other party would dare to shoot.
"Who shoots?"
Suddenly a doctor came out, and everyone looked at him.
"This is a hospital. Shoot here. What do you want to do?"
The doctor was not afraid and seemed dissatisfied.
Shi Qingbin came down the steps and immediately asked: "Doctor, how is the patient inside?"
"It's no longer possible. We tried our best, but he was too seriously injured."
The doctor sighed and kept shaking his head. Xu Qingshi's heart felt like it was being hit by a giant hammer, and he felt suffocated for an instant.
Didn't the husband come back?
"Are you sure?" Shi Qingbin asked hurriedly.
"You go collect the bodies."
The doctor sighed again. He came out ready to notify people outside, but someone shot him. He was already in a bad mood, so he immediately came out to warn people.
