was supposed to have a good wedding banquet, but it was almost disturbed by these dozen reporters, and everyone was not in a very good mood.

After lunch, the guests left, and Wei Lihuang said to Zhou Yaozu before leaving: "Brother Zhou, I see that those reporters didn't come by chance in the morning, no matter how you look at it, it looks like it was premeditated, you have to deal with it well." ”

Zhou Yaozu nodded and said, "Thank you Brother Wei for your help today." ”

"It's all your own family, what's polite?"

"Zhou Tao, you have to check it carefully, you must figure out what's going on. ”

"Yes, Commander!"

After seeing off the guests, the family sat together.

Father Li took the lead and said: "I, as an elder, am incompetent, which not only affected today's wedding, but also almost affected Ruyu and Zhou Tao. ”

"Dad....."

Li Ruyu just wanted to say something, but Father Li stopped him, and then said: "Today's incident can be regarded as a wake-up call for me. I do know Kennan Ishii, who the reporter said. The Li family's business in Pingshan County and even the whole of Hebei is indeed taken care of by him, because I was kind to him in the early years. But I am definitely not a traitor, and my Li family has no enemies. Over the years, for the cause of kàng rì, I have also secretly donated money and materials. has not left Hebei, but is reluctant to these industries. But now it seems that it is better for me to leave sooner. ”

After the old man finished speaking, he also glanced at Li Ruyu.

"The in-laws said well, it's better to leave as soon as possible. Come to Macau, we two also have a look for each other. ”

Zhou Min also persuaded at this time: "Uncle Li, let's go to Macau, although Chongqing is the rear, there are often devil air raids, and now it is the nominal capital, and it is mixed." It's not so easy to get there and start a new business. ”

Mother Li gently patted Li's father's hand and motioned for him to agree.

While the family was discussing how to leave Hebei, Chen Yunzhang and Lu Wei were interrogating the reporters.

Lu Wei was born in the military and was the best at interrogation. He can tell at a glance who has told the truth and who has told a lie.

Through the surprise interrogation, and based on his intuition, he can say with great certainty that this reporter's coming to make trouble is a naked conspiracy.

And the most suspicious thing is the little man surnamed Wu.

"Head Chen, it seems that this is a conspiracy. ”

"Director Lu is right, otherwise how could it be such a coincidence, but an anonymous letter appeared today. ”

"Director Lu, who do you think is the black hand behind it?"

"From my analysis, I think that the black hand behind it is most likely to be two kinds of people. The first is the Japanese. The second is Master Li's enemy. Now we need to figure out, where did this anonymous letter come from, and who is Kennan Ishii?"

"Then please ask Director Lu's people to investigate, it's okay for us people to fight, investigate intelligence, this kind of work really can't be done. ”

"Head Chen rest assured, Wu will definitely find out. ”

Of course, Lu Wei will investigate. The purpose of keeping him in the independent division was to spy on Zhou Tao, and now that such a big thing has happened, he must investigate whether Zhou Tao, the father-in-law, has anything to do with the Japanese. There is also an anonymous letter saying that Zhou Tao's brother-in-law is the Eighth Route Army. This is not good news, and it must be looked up in detail.

Except for the one surnamed Wu who was detained in the independent division, the rest of the reporters who thought it was okay after interrogation were released.

After Chen Yunzhang sent them out of the independent division, he warned: "Through our investigation, this anonymous letter incident is a conspiracy of chì luǒ naked. And the reporter surnamed Wu is most likely a spy. You'd better not make any nonsense when you go back. If you make a big deal and let the devils take advantage of the loopholes, don't blame me for being unkind when the time comes. You're journalists, keep your eyes open. Don't make any fuss, you will jump out and be used as a sword. ”

A reporter was not convinced and wanted to refute, but was stopped by the middle-aged reporter who led him

"We remember what you said, can we go?"

"Let's go. ”

Chen Yunzhang knew that these reporters must be unconvinced, and they must beat their newspaper office again, otherwise these people will just leave on the front foot, and the back foot will send out today's matter, which will not be easy to do. He also sent Pillar and Bobcat to visit the newspapers.

In the VIP room of a high-end Japanese restaurant in Shijiazhuang, Hebei Province, two people knelt on their knees.

One of them was a little older and wore a black suit. The other was younger and dressed in a military uniform.

The young Japanese officer poured a glass of sake for the older man and said, "Mr. Ishii, please." ”

After drinking this glass of wine, the young officer said, "Mr. Ishii, there is news from my people. Your friend Mr. Li is now in Henan, attending his daughter's wedding. Her daughter is married to a division commander in China. ”

This man named Ishii is none other than Keno Ishii. Hearing this, he sighed and said, "And the log, you still have to make a move on him, right?"

"Mr. Ishii, I said it a long time ago. Your friend Mr. Li is Chinese, and he will not have the same heart as the Great Japanese Empire. Over the years, because of you, he has developed very quickly, but you have also seen that his son is the Eighth Route Army, and his daughter is married to the division commander of China's **, and his heart is against us. You're not going to protect him anymore, are you?"

Keno Ishii was silent, and finally picked up the wine glass and said, "After all, he has a good understanding of me, if you can, spare him a life." ”

And the log smiled with satisfaction when he heard this.

February 10, 1941, Lunar Lantern Festival.

The Li family's mansion in Pingshan County.

"Who are you, who let you in!" Steward Li asked at the uninvited guests who suddenly broke in.

He was answered with a hard slap

"Grab everybody in the courtyard and assemble. ”

"Hayi"

"You are Japanese, what do you want to do?" asked Steward Li, shaking his dizzy head.

"What? You'll find out in a moment. ”

Ten minutes later, all the servants of the Li family were gathered in the courtyard. ”

"Ready. ”

The Japanese, dressed in black and holding guns, raised their guns and pointed them at the people in the courtyard.

The Li family squatted on the ground trembling, they didn't know why the sudden doom had struck.

"What are you going to do? Our lord is a friend of Mr. Ishii!"

The Japanese led by him spoke Chinese very well, and he looked at Steward Li gloomily and said, "Mr. Ishii can't protect you." ”

After saying this, he ordered his subordinates to shoot, and everyone in the Li family fell in a pool of blood. Then these people took away all the valuable things of the Li family, and then set a fire.

Also under attack were the Li family's factories and various industries in Pingshan County. Tea houses, cloth houses, pawnshops, money houses, etc., were all looted.

As for the guys and shopkeepers in these shops, they are lucky enough to have their lives, and those who are unlucky have lost their lives.

Overnight, all your family's business transactions in Pingshan County were swept away.

And Li's father, who was far away in Henan, didn't know about it.

At noon on February 11, when Lu Wei's men rushed to Pingshan County to prepare for the investigation, they saw the ruins of the wall.
