I only heard Li Shiqun shouting: "Someone! Put him in a confinement cell! ”

Liu Zezhi had no choice but to walk in hard, and persuaded with a smile: "Director calm his anger, Director Ni is indeed ......"

Li Shiqun's rare gaffe, he shot the case and said angrily: "Presumptuous! Do you dare to disobey?! ”

"The subordinates don't dare...... Director Ni, let's go. ”

Ni Xin turned his head and left, Liu Zezhi chased after him and persuaded: "What's the matter with you?" Can't say something well? Forget it, you go to the confinement room for a few days, and wait until the director is angry......"

Liu Zezhi went through the formalities, saw Ni Xin sitting on the bed in the confinement room in a daze, and said: "Then I'll go first, you think about it, it's best to write a letter of repentance, and I'll ask for mercy for you...... What are you doing with a black face? Well, I won't talk about it. ”

Ni Xin stood up suddenly, pulled off the wires of the monitor, and stopped him: "Zezhi, I beg you for one thing." ”

Liu Zezhi shook his head helplessly, "What are you angry with the monitor?" Say, if I can do it. ”

"I want to meet Ye Shiwen, you asked him to come without telling the director."

Liu Zezhi was taken aback, and said with a wry smile: "Hiding from the director? What if you can't hide it? What if Ye Shiwen says it? Besides, what are you doing with him? ”

Ni Xin pleaded helplessly: "You believe me, I did this for Director Li, for No. 76, you can help me once, I will bear it alone if something happens, and I will never affect you." ”

Liu Zezhi pretended to be very embarrassed and said, "Of course I believe you, but ...... In this way, I will find another excuse to call Ye Shiwen over, and then say that the safe in his office was pried into yesterday, you have clues, I think maybe he will take the initiative to come to you, Ye Shiwen is not a soldier, nor is he from No. 76, and he is the cousin of his wife, and the director will not do anything to him. ”

Ni Xin nodded: "Please." ”

In fact, as soon as Ni Xin's words came out, Liu Zezhi knew that the opportunity had come. Ni Xin wanted to see Ye Shiwen, naturally in order to persuade Li Shiqun to rein in the precipice, with his understanding of Ye Shiwen, Ye Shiwen, who was not scheming, may not understand the crisis he is facing, and he will not dare to disobey Li Shiqun, and the two will definitely break up unhappily. After that, he poisoned Ni Xin, and inferred that Ye Shiwen was the biggest suspect according to time, and Zhou Chengbin sent someone to hide the poison in Ye Shiwen's office in advance, and after a comprehensive and careful search, it will definitely be shown in front of people. Ye Shiwen is Li Shiqun's in-law, Ni Xin's death, Li Shiqun jumped into the Yellow River and couldn't clear the suspicion of the mastermind behind the scenes.

Liu Zezhi didn't dare to contact Ye Shiwen by phone, so he personally drove to Yicheng Trading Company and found Ye Shiwen: "Manager Ye, Director Li was furious and locked up Director Ni. ”

Hearing this, Ye Shiwen was overjoyed and sneered: "Really? It is long overdue...... It's all because it's too lenient on weekdays, how is that? ”

Liu Zezhi replied: "Director Ni, you don't know, don't look at him as gentle and elegant on the surface, but in fact, he likes to drill the horns of the bull and admit death." The matter of Yicheng Trading Company is a private matter again, and it is a big trouble...... Someone has to bow their heads first, of course, only if Director Ni pleads guilty and admits his mistakes, otherwise it will always be closed...... After a long time, everyone knew about it, and then in front of the Japanese, the relationship between Director Ni and General Heiichiro Ono ...... As the saying goes: big things turn small, small things turn into small things, and the party is a prosperous home. ”

Ye Shiwen replied with a little smugness: "Secretary Liu, what you said is not a good analogy, this is not a family matter. Japanese? So what? In the final analysis, Director Ni is still the person of No. 76, and he is Director Li's subordinate. But what you said also has some truth, do you want me to persuade Director Ni? ”

Liu Zezhi smiled embarrassedly: "That's what I mean, I'm causing you trouble, let's go." ”

Back at No. 76, it was already eleven o'clock at noon, and Liu Zezhi said to the guard: "Manager Ye has something to ask Director Ni, and you can pretend not to know about it." ”

The guard was very embarrassed: "Secretary Liu, I'm afraid this won't work, right?" One more thing...... Director Ni broke the wires of the confinement room monitor......"

Liu Zezhi's face sank, and he said: "The director ordered me to confiner Director Ni, and he didn't ask him not to visit, if the people from the intelligence department have an urgent handover, you can't get in the way?" Or did Director Li give you an order directly, and I don't know about it? The listener is broken, is it Director Ni who destroyed it? Did you see it with your own eyes? Or do you see that something happened to Director Ni and fell into the well? Are you sure that Director Ni will be transferred to prison and will never see the light of day for the rest of his life? ”

The guard was taken aback and hurriedly defended: "The subordinates didn't mean that, Secretary Liu, you ......"

Liu Zezhi used both soft and hard, and said: "It's right to be loyal to your duties, but you have to figure out what your responsibilities are, as long as Director Ni doesn't run away, it's none of your business, right?" I have other things. ”

The guards nodded again and again, Liu Zezhi took Ye Shiwen into the confinement room, and said, "Let's talk, if you have anything to say, hurry up, I'll watch outside." He threw a pack of freshly opened cigarettes on the table and walked out.

Ten minutes later, the canteen administrator came to the cell, took out a tray, on which were placed one meat, one vegetable, two stir-fried vegetables, and a bowl of rice, and said, "Secretary Liu, you are also there, this one is Director Ni." ”

"You can leave it alone, and I'll send it to him."

"Thank you."

Liu Zezhi picked up the tray, came to the confinement room, and said, "Are you done talking?" Let's eat. Looking at the faces of the two, they know that they are not speculative.

Ye Shiwen got up and said: "I'll go first, I still say the same thing: listen to Director Li, I don't know anything else." ”

Ni Xin bowed his head silently.

Liu Zezhi sent Ye Shiwen away, came back and said, "Alas, don't think about it anymore, let's eat." As he spoke, he leaned over to pick up the wire that was cut by Ni Xin.

Ni Xin sighed, picked up the chopsticks, and at this moment, Pingchuan Xinye actually came and said, "Director Ni, Director Li asked you to see him immediately, General Ono is here." ”

Ni Xin was very puzzled: So soon did Heiichiro Ono know that he was locked up? No, even if you know that you are the person of No. 76, and the chief deals with a subordinate, and it is not a harsh treatment such as dismissal, beheading, and imprisonment, there is no need for Heiichiro Ono to directly intervene.

Ni Xin followed Pingchuan Xinye, Liu Zezhi was very disappointed, it happened suddenly, and it was a pity to miss such a good opportunity...... But he was also a little vaguely happy, he secretly said What's wrong? Ni Xin, whose hands are stained with the blood of his comrades-in-arms, is his own enemy.

He sat in Ni Xin's position just now, picked up the chopsticks and began to eat, ate most of the shredded meat and beans and rice, the dish of cabbage roasted tofu only moved the chopsticks, got up and walked out of the confinement room, poured the rest of the food into the trash can at the gate, put down the dishes and chopsticks, and whispered to the guard: "Director Ni probably doesn't have to come back to be punished." I've fixed the listener. ”

Ni Xin came to Li Shiqun's office, Li Shiqun didn't see any anger, and said lightly: "Director Ni, General Ono recommended you to go to Japan to serve as an instructor in a special agent training class, I have already agreed, you hand it over, let's go." ”

Heiichiro Ono said with a smile: "Although Ni Sang is the cadre of No. 76, it is rare for Li Sang to understand the righteousness and support it wholeheartedly, Ni Sang, you and Deputy Director Quan will hand over the work, and the passenger ferry at six o'clock in the evening, don't delay." ”

Ni Xin was taken aback and asked, "So fast?" Liner? You have to fly faster, can you fly in two days? ”

Li Shiqun immediately understood: Ni Xin had known for a long time, but he had hidden it from himself, how could it be reasonable!

Ono Heiichiro replied: "Li Sang is his own person, there is no need to hide it from you, Tsuruko is six months pregnant, and I am not worried about taking a plane, so I will make the decision for you." You go get busy, I still have something to discuss with Li Sang. ”

Ni Xin had no choice but to reply: "Yes, my subordinates retired." ”

An hour later, Ono Heiichiro left No. 76, Ni Xin came to see Li Shiqun again, and half an hour later, he walked out, looking a little worried, and said to Liu Zezhi: "Zezhi, I have to go on a long trip, and it will take more than a month to come back, you send me to the dock, okay." ”

Liu Zezhi smiled: "Okay, no problem, don't forget to come back and bring me a gift, let's go." ”

The two drove back to the Japanese senior officer's apartment in Aili Garden, picked up the crane, arrived at the dock, and got on the boat with Ni Xin to settle the luggage, Liu Zezhi said with a smile: "The conditions of this first-class cabin are really good, sister-in-law, have a good journey, I got off the ship." ”

Ni Xin said: "I'll send you, Hezi, don't come out." ”

When the two came to the deck, Liu Zezhi looked at his watch and said, "You have something to say to me, right?" Let's talk about it. ”

Ni Xin smiled bitterly and said, "I talked to the director just now, alas, Zezhi, sometimes I want to ...... Am I being naïve? The director is a bit too much, but the Japanese are also ...... I'm vaguely worried that the situation will be out of control if this stalemate continues...... The Japanese are not good men and women. ”

Liu Zezhi pretended to be stupid: "What do you mean, I didn't understand ......"

Ni Xin waved his hand and said: "Don't pretend not to understand, you know better than me what Yicheng Trading Company does!" Zezhi, you are a smart person, you can't ignore the truth of bowing your head under the eaves, right? ”

Liu Zezhi sneered: "Okay, then I won't pretend to be stupid, to tell you the truth, first, I can't control it, I only know that the director is not thin on me, and it is my duty to be loyal and serve my life; Second, the Japanese suppressed No. 76, just because of Yicheng Trading Company? Is it mainly because of Yicheng Trading Company? Now that the Sino-Japanese war is in full swing and the intelligence war is intensifying, if the strength of No. 76 is not good, how can it confront anti-Japanese forces such as military commanders? No. 76 is powerful, and the Japanese are not at ease, and they want the horses to run and the horses not to eat grass, what do you let the director do? ”

"Take the initiative to hand over the command of the 12 overseas intelligence stations, cancel the plan to transfer the backbone back, and fully support these intelligence stations once a major incident occurs. The business of Yicheng Trading Company is just in the past, and don't do it again in the future! From then on, they worked together to serve the Japanese Empire. The director is shrewd and capable, and he is the best candidate for the person in charge of intelligence warfare in the Songhu area, and he will certainly be able to win the understanding of General Yingzuo and others. Before leaving, I talked to the director, who was noncommittal, I was very worried......"

Liu Zezhi was stunned, and he couldn't say a lot of words, so he only asked: "Is this what the Japanese mean, or what you mean?" ”

Ni Xin asked rhetorically, "What do you say?" ”

Liu Zezhi smiled and replied: "Okay, as long as there is a chance, I will advise the director, but if the director does not listen, I dare not guarantee it." It was almost time, and I dismounted. ”

Ni Xin was a little worried about Liu Zezhi again, took two steps closely, chased after him and said, "The director's temper ...... You can find a good opportunity, say well, don't put yourself in it, I'm not here, in case...... There wasn't even a round of people. ”

Liu Zezhi replied with a smile: "I know, you can leave with confidence." ”

At eight o'clock in the evening, Liu Zezhi returned home, called Xu Jianxue and said: "You go and inform Wu Shun and order him to tell Sun Dongsheng: The 'woodpecker plan' has failed." ”

Xu Jianxue asked worriedly, "You made a move?" Why did it fail? Will it leave a legacy of trouble? ”

"No, the target suddenly left Shanghai."
