Volume I, Chapter 25

When Ma Liangchen returned to the secret service at noon, he was immediately called by Ono. When Ono saw Ma Liangchen's head, he asked, "Ma Liangchen, what is the progress of Wang Yurong's case?" ”

Ma Liangchen replied immediately: "Taijun, I am hurrying to handle this case, and I will definitely gain in a few days." ”

"There is still a week left before the deadline I gave you to handle the case, you have to hurry, otherwise you will be disciplined!" Do you know? ”

"Taijun, please trust me."

"I heard a message just now, saying that you sneaked into the gate of Wang Yunqing's house alone this morning, tell me, why is this?"

Ono's question made Ma Liangchen's heart tense up, because he hadn't set up a secret sentry around Wang Yunqing's house these days, and he hadn't told anyone about Wang Yunqing's house, how did Ono know? Could it be that someone is spying on themselves? Thinking of this, he could only tell the truth: "Taijun, I did go to Wang Yunqing's house today. ”

"What are you doing?"

"I went here for Wang Yurong's case, and I have already found a more definite clue."

Ono glared at a pair of bull's eyes and asked, "Tell me honestly, why did you go to handle the case behind someone else's back?" Why are you going alone? Did you have a personal deal with your father-in-law? ”

"Don't dare! Good ministers serve the imperial army and serve themselves and serve the public, and have no personal relationship with the royal family! ”

Ono stretched his face and said, "Let me ask you again, you found the exact clue, why didn't you report to me but sneaked into Wang's house alone, did you report to them?" ”

This big hat is not easy to wear, Ma Liangchen hurriedly explained: "Taijun, this is a shadowless thing, absolutely not!" ”

"Ma Liangchen, I'll talk about the ugly things first, if I catch you colluding with Wang Yunqing for personal gain, I will remove you from your post and investigate it! Since you have a clue about Wang Yurong, tell me about it first. Ono's vicious eyes were fixed on Ma Liangchen.

Ma Liangchen looked at Ono's gloomy face and couldn't help but panic in his heart. His wishful thinking is like this: don't arrest Wang Yurong first, so as to put pressure on Wang Yunqing. Extorting a sum of money from the Wang family, and then capturing Wang Yurong to ask Ono for credit, this can not only give Ono an unexpected surprise, but also show his unique ability to do things, and more importantly, he can make a lot of money. Now that he is being secretly watched, Ono is suspicious of himself again, and he has to tell the truth. Ma Liangchen said to Ono: "Taijun, I don't think Wang Yurong has gone anywhere, in fact, she has been hiding in Wang Yunqing's house, and I came to Wang's house today to ask Wang Yunqing about this." But he didn't admit it. ”

Ono shook his head vigorously after hearing this, "Wang Yurong is hiding at home, this is too unexpected!" Is it possible? You didn't tell me the truth! ”

"Taijun, we have an idiom in China that 'the big hidden in the city', have you heard of it?"

I know this idiom, and I understand what it means. For example, just like the two of us playing hide and seek, you hide in what I think is the most obvious and least likely place to hide, and this place is the most hidden and safe place for you. Am I right? ”

"Taijun deserves to be a China expert. That's basically what it means. Wang Yunqing, that old fox, knows this very well, he must have hidden Wang Yurong at home. ”

After listening to Ma Liangchen's words, Ono thought that what he said made sense, and he became angry again when he thought of this: he slapped the table hard and yelled: "Bastard! Now that you have judged Wang Yurong's hiding place. Why didn't you report to me, why didn't you take arrest measures against Wang Yurong earlier? Say! ”

Ono's threat made Ma Liangchen tremble. Ma Liangchen explained tremblingly: "Taijun, I didn't know about it, although I thought that Wang Yurong was hiding in the Wang family. But that's speculation and no hard evidence, and it's not too late for me to tell you when I've put it into practice. In the case, Wang Yunqing has a deep relationship with General Yamamoto. If I rashly go to his house to arrest someone, and catch Wang Yurong, I will be done, if I pounce on him, once Wang Yunqing is in a hurry, he will go to General Yamamoto, I can't eat and go around! Taijun, I have concerns! Ma Liangchen was clever and eloquent, and a few words dispelled Ono's doubts about him.

Ono nodded, "Well, there's some truth to what you're saying. ”

Ma Liangchen saw that Xiao Ye's face softened a lot, so he struck while the iron was hot and said: "I went to Wang's house today to fight the grass and scare the snake, and there is something in my words to imply that they know where Wang Yurong is hiding, if Wang Yurong is really hiding in the Wang family, their speech and expression will be unnatural." By observing the words and looks, I determined 100% that Wang Yurong was hiding in the Wang family, and the next step was to lure the snake out of the hole to prove my judgment. ”

Ono's eyes lit up as he listened, and he gave Ma Liangchen a thumbs up. "Well done! I was indeed prescient in promoting you! ”

"Hey!" Ma Liangchen sighed at this time and said: "But I did my loyal and conscientious work for the imperial army, but someone put a black gun on me behind my back. Taijun, I'm so cold! ”

Ono saw Ma Liangchen's sad look and felt that he had indeed wronged him, so he laughed unnaturally. "Ma Sang, I was confused for a while and listened to and believed it, I blamed you, don't go to your heart! Is it also to blame this Shi Shuli for not having the ability to plaster other people's faces? I've got to teach him a good lesson! Ono felt that he had slipped through his mouth when he said this, so he didn't say any more.

In fact, even if Ono didn't say Shi Shuli's name, Ma Liangchen could guess that Shi Shuli was putting on his own shoes. He was dissatisfied but showed a very open-minded look, "Taijun, Shi Shuli used to be my boss, but now I am his boss, he doesn't feel good in his heart, and even jealous of me, this is a natural thing." I understand his feelings, and I don't hold a grudge against him. ”

Ono agreed, "I'm relieved that you're so open-minded. Both of you are my subordinates, and only by being sincere and united can you serve the Imperial Army better! Ono then instructed Ma Liangchen: "That Wang Yunqing is resourceful, from now on, you don't want to use any more tricks to capture and indulge, you should immediately surround the royal mansion, and you must not let Wang Yurong escape again!" ”

Ma Liangchen patted his chest and assured Ono: "Don't worry, on the surface, I didn't have a single soldier around the Wang family, but the Wang family has my eyes and ears, and their every move is under my control." I'm going to send Wang Yunqing the imperial army's military uniform and good citizen certificate tonight, and I'm going to lead the snake out of the hole and capture Wang Yurong! ”

Ono saw that Ma Liangchen was so sure, so he said happily: "Ma San, I am optimistic about you!" I'm going to give you a big compliment! ”

That night, Ma Liangchen sent the devil's military uniform and a certificate of good citizenship to the king's mansion. Wang Yunqing and Ma Liangchen agreed that at ten o'clock the next night, Wang Yunqing personally drove Yurong out of the city from Andingmen, and Ma Liangchen personally led people to secretly protect him.

At about ten o'clock the next night, it was dark, and the gate of the royal mansion in the depths of the alley gently opened a crack, and a head protruded from it, and this person was Lao Zhao. Lao Zhao cautiously looked around for a while, and then retracted his head. After a short while, the door was opened again, and Lao Zhao led an elderly Japanese officer and a middle-aged woman carrying a suitcase out. Lao Zhao drove a black car parked on the side in front of the two people, and he opened the car door and invited the two people in. The Japanese officer asked Lao Zhao to go back to the courtyard and close the gate, and he sat in the driver's seat. The sedan didn't turn on its headlights, and it quietly drove out of the dark alley. Wang Yunqing's car just drove out of the alley. Another black car, which had already been parked on the side of the road, followed.

Riding in a black car from the main entrance of the palace was Wang Yunqing and his wife, who disguised themselves as Japanese officers. Mrs. Wang's tall, short, fat and thin are more similar to Yurong, Wang Yunqing disguised herself as a Japanese officer and asked Mrs. to pretend to be Yurong to leave from the main entrance, giving people the illusion of quietly slipping away, so as to attract the attention of the spies and cover Yurong's safe evacuation from the back door.

After Wang Yunqing drove the black sedan out of the alley, he drove straight in the direction of Andingmen, and when he drove to the bottom of the tower of Anding City Gate, a group of armed devil soldiers and puppet soldiers stopped the car, and one of the puppet soldiers shouted to the car: "Get out of the car and check." ”

The door of the sedan opened, and Wang Yunqing, disguised as a Japanese officer, walked out. Wang Yunqing was very dissatisfied with their use of pure Japanese and asked: "I am Okada Osa, a staff officer of the North China Theater Command of the Japanese Army, why did you stop my car?" ”

A Japanese soldier stepped forward and saluted and said, "Okada Daisa, I'm sorry!" After 10 o'clock in the evening, all the gates of Beiping must be closed, and no one is allowed to enter or leave at will. ”

At this time, another Japanese soldier called out the woman in the car. The Japanese military Cao pointed to the woman and asked Wang Yunqing: "Who is she?" ”

"She is a woman I know in China. She lives outside the city, and I'm going to send her home. This woman has a certificate of good citizenship. Wang Yunqing handed a good man to the military cao.

The Japanese military Cao took the certificate of good citizenship, glanced at it and looked at Mrs. Wang, and then respectfully returned the good citizen to Wang Yunqing with both hands, "Sir." Just show your ID and you're out on the town! ”

Wang Yunqing touched a few pockets with his hand and couldn't find the documents, so he said: "I didn't have my military ID card with me." ”

The Japanese soldier Cao became alert when he saw that Wang Yunqing did not show his documents, and he said to Wang Yunqing: "I'm sorry! After ten o'clock in the evening. You can't get out of the city without a document. ”

Wang Yunqing was a little anxious, he launched a majestic attitude towards the Japanese military Cao, he pointed at the other party's nose and shouted: "I am an officer of the Japanese Imperial Army, you dare to block my car, I order you to quickly get out of the way for me!" ”

The military cao also said strongly: "I can't let it go!" I'm a soldier, and I'm carrying out the orders of my superiors! ”

Wang Yunqing bluffed and said: "I am also your commander, please respect me!" ”

"Please leave here at once, and don't interfere with our official business." The military cao impatiently made a gesture for Wang Yunqing to leave. Wang Yunqing was afraid that he would make a big deal and expose his true identity, so he roared at Najun Cao in Japanese and then got into the car helplessly, and he said to Mrs. Wang: "Let's go, I can't get out from here, drive the car to Xizhimen to try." ”

Wang Yunqing's car had just turned its head, when a car came from behind to block their way, Ma Liangchen walked out of the car behind and came to Wang Yunqing's car, he patted the window of the cab and made a gesture to roll down the window and speak. Wang Yunqing rolled down the window. Mrs. Wang, who pretended to be Yurong, was afraid that Ma Liangchen would recognize her, so she hurriedly covered half of her face with a scarf and hung her head on her chest.

Ma Liangchen lowered his voice in the car and said, "Dad, there are people I arranged in this sentry, you wait a minute, I will let those who stand guard let you and my aunt go." After he finished speaking, he hurried to the sentry post under the castle tower.

Wang Yunqing didn't believe that Ma Liangchen could help him at a critical time, and he watched Ma Liangchen's actions nervously in the car. He saw Ma Liangchen walk in front of the Japanese soldier Cao first showed his ID, and then gestured and said a call, the military Cao nodded and waved his hand to the people under him, and several Japanese puppet soldiers stepped forward to remove the barricade and make way for a passage. Ma Liangchen made a gesture of letting go of Wang Yunqing's car, Wang Yunqing quickly turned the front of the car to the city gate, and the car drove out quickly.

Wang Yunqing drove out of Andingmen and then out of Beitucheng, and did not encounter the devil's sentry along the way. Mrs. Wang said: "Master, I think this Ma Liangchen is still trustworthy. ”

"He let us go so happily, did he know that Yurong was not in the car?" Wang Yunqing replied with some concern.

Mrs. Wang said, "Whatever he is! It's too late for him to see through, and I guess Sister Yurong has left our house safely at this time. ”

"Madame is very right." After Wang Yunqing carefully observed the car, he found that there was no vehicle tracking behind him, so he drove the car in the direction of Haidian Phoenix Ridge. (To be continued......)
