Chapter 628 Lure the snake out of its hole
"Thank you, Director Yuan. I will give you a reply as soon as possible."
Situ Shang felt that what he did was right. He was also worried at first that Yuan Shikai might be unhappy, but judging from his expression, that was not the case at all. It seemed that he did not take it to heart and seemed very satisfied with his answer.
At this time, the phone on the desk rang, and Situ Shang stood up and said goodbye. Yuan Ye nodded and said:
"Go back and tell Director Chai that I have something to talk to him about."
"Ok."
After Situ Shang left, Yuan Ye picked up the phone. It was Gu Yan who called and said that he had some business matters to ask him and asked him to come to the company when he had time.
Yuan Ye knew that Gu Yan must have something important to report to him, so he said, "I understand," and would be there soon.
Not long after he put down the phone, Chai Ruhai came to his office excitedly. Yuan Ye smiled and said,
"Director Chai, you seem to be in a good mood. Are you lucky in love?
Tell me honestly, did you send the landlord to bed last night?"
Chai Ruhai was not embarrassed at all and said with a smile:
"You know all this. I can't hide anything from you."
"When I went back last night and saw your car parked outside the apartment, I knew you must be enjoying yourself.
In fact, I noticed it while we were eating. You two were flirting with each other and had already made eye contact. You are indeed Mr. Chai, so popular with women. I can only sigh that I am not as good as him.
Yuan Ye teased.
"Don't be so modest. Miss Guangzi is so popular, so many people don't like her. But when you came, they immediately took a fancy to you. You don't know how to appreciate your blessings. In fact, I am the one who feels inferior to her.
But to be honest, this Miss Yang is quite charming, I really feel like I should have met her too late.”
Chai Ruhai felt quite emotional.
As soon as Yuan Ye heard it, he knew that Chai Ruhai was infatuated with Yang Meiyu. However, it was unknown how long the relationship between this playboy and Yang Meiyu could last. Yuan Ye didn't care, so he talked about business with Chai Ruhai.
"Okay, enough joking, I came here to discuss something with you."
"what's up?"
Chai Ruhai was a little curious.
"Look, Yang Meiyu asked Situ Shang to send me a box of Longjing tea. I just had a chat with him and it went well. I admire him a lot. The Political Security Department is short of staff and wants to transfer him to my office, so I want to discuss it with you."
When Chai Ruhai heard about this matter, although he also admired Situ Shang, he had no choice but to give up since Yuan Shikai had spoken. However, this was also a good thing for Situ Shang. He had more development prospects with Yuan Shikai than with him. For Yang Meiyu's sake, he couldn't disagree. So he said frankly:
"Okay, there's nothing to discuss. Your Political Security Department doesn't have many people. I'll go back and get him the paperwork to transfer him over."
Yuan Ye shook his head and smiled:
"Don't rush into it. This guy said he needs to think about it first. I think he's a little reluctant to leave the HR department. You've been nice to him, so he might be afraid of letting you down.
I'm not in a hurry. Give him some time to think about it, and you can go back and try to persuade him."
"What is this kid thinking? This is a good thing. Is there any need to consider it? I'll go back and talk to him properly."
Although Chai Ruhai said this, he felt relieved in his heart that he had not misjudged the person and should help him.
Yuan Ye nodded and said:
"Okay, I'll leave it to you then. Just put it this way, I have something to do at No. 76."
The two walked out of the office. Yuan Ye went downstairs and drove to Hengyuan Trading Company. There were many more people in the large office on the first floor, and it was a busy scene.
He came to the manager's office on the second floor. Gu Yan handed him a telegram and said:
"I received this an hour ago. It was sent from the call sign you gave me. I was afraid it might be something important, so I called you."
He knew what organization that call sign represented. Yuan Ye had already told him. Now his sister Gu Yu and Yuan Ye's sister Yuan Wan were both in that organization, and they were sent there personally.
Yuan Ye took the telegram and walked into the secret room and translated it. In the telegram, the Red Party expressed their gratitude to him and asked him to help understand the situation of the traitor Li Zhongfa without affecting safety. The telegram was signed by "Pastor".
Yuan Ye did not know that the codenamed "Pastor" was actually Chen Mingzhong, the number one comrade of the Red Party. Chen Mingzhong knew that Wuming's identity was very important, so in order to keep it secret, he asked his radio operator to contact Wuming.
Yuan Ye knew that the Red Party wanted to eliminate the traitor. It was Li Zhongfa's betrayal that caused the sacrifice of the courier. The sacrifice was very heroic, and Yuan Ye could not forget it for a while. He was also happy to see the traitor eliminated, so of course he had to help.
Yuan Ye then left Hengyuan Trading Company. He planned to go to No. 76 first to see if he could find out any news that interested him. Later, he would go to the dead mailbox agreed upon with Yoshida Shigeru to see if Yoshida Shigeru had any news.
When he drove into the compound of No. 76, he happened to see Yoshida Shigeru getting into the car and leaving. Yuan Ye couldn't help but feel curious. What was Yoshida Shigeru doing at No. 76?
He subconsciously began to listen to the movements in Li Qunshi's office and unexpectedly discovered the voice of Li Zhongfa, the owner of the teahouse. Yuan Ye immediately thought that it must be Yoshida Shigeru who brought him over to Li Qunshi.
He had not held out much hope of finding Li Zhongfa here, as Li Zhongfa was already in the hands of the Japanese. He did not expect that he would be handed over to No. 76 so soon.
There were three people in the office, besides Li Zhongfa, there were Li Qunshi and Yan Ping. Yan Ping was just called by Li Qunshi. He told Yan Ping that Li Zhongfa had surrendered from the Red Party and that the Special High Section had handed him over to No. 76, and now he was in charge.
Yan Ping asked Li Zhongfa to wait for him in his office, and then asked Li Qunshi:
"Director, what does it mean that the Japanese handed him over to us?"
Li Qunshi shook his head and said:
"The Japanese just sent him here without saying anything. I guess they thought he was of no value anymore, so they just gave him to us. Why don't I call Section Chief Nanyun and ask him?"
He immediately called the Special High Section. Masako Nanyun was a little impatient and said that this person was now a member of No. 76. You can do whatever you want with him. You don't need to ask me how to use him.
Li Qunshi thought, it was exactly as he thought, but Nanyun Masako's tone made him feel a little uncomfortable. He put down the phone and said angrily:
"This isn't the place to keep idlers."
As he was speaking, Yuan Ye pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing the unhappy look on Li Qunshi's face, he smiled and said:
"Who offended our Director Li? Who is this idler?"
"Oh, you're here, Special Envoy! Please take a seat!"
When Li Qunshi saw Yuan Ye, he immediately changed his expression and greeted him warmly.
"It's just a small matter. The Special High Police dumped a Red Party traitor on us. I guess he's of no value. He looks so weak, what else can he do?"
Yuan Ye said indifferently:
"Oh, so he's just an idler. I don't think he's just an idler; he might even be valuable. Since he's a member of the Red Party, why not let him go out every day and try his luck? He might run into someone he knows from the Red Party. But we'd have to send someone to follow him, as that carries risks."
Yuan Ye thought that only in this way would the Red Party have a chance to kill this traitor. Otherwise, if this traitor hid in No. 76, the Red Party would really have no way to deal with him.
He estimated that Li Qunshi would agree to his proposal, and then he would tell the Red Party to take action, but it would take a few days. If Li Zhongfa was killed as soon as he went out, he, as one of the insiders, would be more or less suspected. Although they had no evidence and dared not do anything to him, it would not be good after all.
If the action was carried out a few days later and Li Zhongfa was allowed to go out more often, then his murder would be easier to explain. He was out in public every day, and it was inevitable that he would encounter ghosts on the night road and be discovered and killed by the Red Party. This was also normal, and he would not be suspected at all.
Although it was he who proposed it, he had good intentions and was doing it purely for work. Li Qunshi did not dare to blame him. If anyone was to blame, he could only blame Li Zhongfa for his bad luck.
Now I don’t know whether Li Qunshi will agree.
