Chapter 96: Harboring a Ghost Child
After visiting Xiao Junyan from the hospital, Ruan Jingtian returned to the gendarmerie and was immediately shocked by Hu Qiuyuan's news:
Hu Qiuyuan defected to the Mai Guo's office in Dongshan City, but the Mai Guo's office in Dongshan City refused to take him in and drove Hu Qiuyuan out. Chang Yifan directly captured Hu Qiuyuan outside the gate of Mai Guo's office in Dongshan City.
Ruan Jingtian did not understand why the people of Mai Guo did not want such a high-ranking official as Hu Qiuyuan, and the intelligence that Hu Qiuyuan possessed was invaluable, and the people of Mai Guo disdained this information, or were they afraid of the people of Zheguo? Ruan Jingtian thought that with the shrewdness of the people of Mai, it was impossible to turn a blind eye to this information; with the strength of the country, it was unlikely that they would be afraid of Zheguo, but why did Mai Guo let Hu Qiuyuan go? Ruan Jingtian thought about it for a long time and vaguely felt that maybe Zheguo promised to give Mai Guo more benefits in exchange for Hu Qiuyuan.
Thinking that his task was successfully completed, Ruan Jingtian called Liang Qianli, but no one answered. He put down the phone, a little strange, Liang Qianli had no reason not to be in the office. This thought just flashed in his mind, and he didn't think much about it, the leader, he was always busy.
Nguyen Ching Tien arranged for the gendarmes to interrogate several of the people who kidnapped Xiao Junyan, and wanted the remnants of Hu Jiehua's henchmen throughout the city, including members of the Guards Brigade directly under the Assassins, such as the Taiquan Martial Arts Gym, the Dong Soon Grain and Oil Trading Company, and the Junchi Special Vehicle Distribution Company, among which the fake ambulances were provided by the Junchi Special Vehicle Distribution Company.
The Hu family's power in Dongshan City was almost uprooted by Chang Yifan, and Ruan Jingtian wanted to make a move, but he had no chance. However, he heard that Hu Qiuyuan's core members, family members, and gold and silver treasures had been transferred in advance, so Chang Yifan didn't gain much, just caught some small minions.
When he was about to leave work, Nguyen Ching Tien received a telephone call from the office of the Ministry of the Army, saying that the head and deputy head of the Liuyun Provincial Army Headquarters, the director and deputy director of the Liuyun Provincial Water Organs, the special commissioner of the General Administration of National Security of Zheguo, and the director of the Office of the General Administration of National Security in Quanshui City were about to arrive in Dongshan City, and ordered leaders at and above the department level to meet them at the airport.
Ruan Jingtian had no choice but to hand over the work to Zheng Kaidi, the executive deputy captain, and drove to the War Department to assemble.
Chang Yifan, Deputy Minister of the Army, had a gloomy face and nodded slightly to Ruan Jingtian. Not a word. The surrounding department-level cadres all had stiff faces, and the atmosphere was dull. Seeing this scene, Ruan Jingtian also stood aside without saying a word.
Soon, the personnel arrived, Chang Yifan waved his hand, and took the lead in boarding the bus, and everyone rushed in.
An hour later, Chang Yifan led the officials at or above the department level in Dongshan City to greet the provincial-level leaders who stepped out of the plane, and these leaders all looked stern and shook hands with the officials of Dongshan City one by one.
When Ning Shoucheng held Ruan Jingtian's hand. Before Chang Yifan could introduce him, Ning Shoucheng said, "You are the little palace of the gendarmerie." ”
Ruan Jingtian had heard the previous introduction and knew that this person was the biggest official in Liuyun Province, and he wondered why General Director Ning knew him, but when he looked at Ning Shoucheng's face carefully, he understood a little, and hurriedly said respectfully: "General Director Ning, hello, I'm Gong Xiaomu!"
Ning Shoucheng held Ruan Jingtian's hand. He patted Ruan Jingtian's hands with his other hand, and without saying a word, he walked to the next person.
Ruan Jingtian carefully observed Ning Shoucheng's handshake with others, and found that Ning Shoucheng not only did not speak to others. He didn't pat the other person's hand with his other hand, and said secretly in his heart: "Ning Jingwen's father turned out to be Ning Shoucheng, why did he pat my hand?
Every action of the leader is full of deep meaning, and Ruan Jingtian's observation is meticulous. Naturally, it will come to mind. Chang Yifan, who was in charge of introducing Ning Shoucheng, also saw Ning Shoucheng's special treatment of Ruan Jingtian, and couldn't help but glance at Ruan Jingtian, and a lot of questions rose in his heart.
Ning Shoucheng and his entourage first came to the army hospital to visit Xiao Junyan. Xiao Junyan had already woken up, but his expression was abrupt and his spirit was not good. The group stayed in the hospital for a short time, and these people came to the conference room of the designated guest house of the War Department to hold a general meeting.
The meeting was presided over by Chang Yifan, who briefly introduced the beginning and end of today's series of events, and then handed the microphone to Ning Shoucheng. Ning Shoucheng first praised officials at all levels in Dongshan City for not panicking in the face of sudden incidents, but for quickly and decisively handling the crisis, so that the social order in Dongshan City was not disordered and the people's lives were not affected; then he demanded that officials at all levels in Dongshan City eliminate the bad impact of this incident in the coming time, do their own work well, do not spread rumors, and take the investigation conclusions of the higher-level leaders as the basis and criterion; finally, he expressed indignation at the severe consequences of this incident, and expressed indignation at those who have bad intentions, Officials with wolf ambitions issued stern warnings, hoping that these people would learn from their mistakes, take the initiative to confess their problems to the main weaving, explain the problems, and strive for the leniency of the main weaving, and not have the slightest luck mentality.
Ruan Jingtian's heart moved, Ning Shoucheng's words had something to say, did he want to settle the general ledger against the officialdom of Dongshan City? It seems that Hu Qiuyuan's defection and Hu Jiehua's perverse behavior have completely angered the high-level leaders, and the officialdom of Dongshan City may have to be reshuffled.
Ruan Jingtian was not interested in rectifying the officials of Dongshan City, and he was unhappy that Hu Qiuyuan was not in his hands. Although Hu Qiuyuan was detained, the punishment of officials was not the same as that of the people. For example, for the same crime, the punishment for officials is much lighter than that for the people, and even the prison cells of officials are more comfortable, well-equipped and complete than those of the people.
For a high-ranking official like Hu Qiuyuan, getting a medical parole is a pediatric matter, and he may not be in a prison cell at all, but live comfortably in a luxurious villa, and his life can be nourished.
Ruan Jingtian desperately wanted to kill Hu Qiuyuan, if Hu Qiuyuan was escorted back to Zheguo, then the goal of killing Hu Qiuyuan would be far away, which was not what Ruan Jingtian wanted. He couldn't help but scold Xiao Junyan in his heart, why didn't he let him arrest Hu Qiuyuan, he had to let Chang Yifan, who was like a stupid pig, catch him, and it turned out to be a mess.
After the meeting, Ning Shoucheng returned to the room and called Ning Jingwen and asked her to go to the guest house to see her father.
Half an hour later, Ning Jingwen sat opposite Ning Shoucheng.
"Dad, you're tired of running all the way. Ning Ning Wen said.
"Don't be tired, I'll ask you something. Why did Hu Jiehua pester you? Tell me about the whole process of getting to know Hu Jiehua. ”
"When I was in college in Zheguo, Hu Jiehua was my senior, and we knew each other, but at that time, I only knew him. But a few days ago, he came to Quanshui City and suddenly offered to be friends with me. I don't agree,..." Ning Jingwen described the process of Hu Jiehua's stalking in Quanshui City, and then said the frightening moment at the Dongyue Hotel at noon.
Ning Shoucheng listened quietly and didn't say a word, but occasionally his eyes showed a cold killing intent.
After Ning Jingwen finished speaking, Ning Shoucheng pondered for a long time and asked, "What do you think of Gong Xiaomu?"
"That nerd. Which do you want to know?" asked Ning Jingwen with a tilted head.
"In all respects, you can say whatever you want. ”
"It seems to be an official fan. It doesn't seem to be. He respects Uncle Liang very much and is very good at talking, but I heard that he dared to talk back to Hu Qiuyuan in public at the meeting, which is not like a bureaucrat who obeys the words of his superiors, as if the people of Dongshan City have a good impression of him and say that he is a good official.
In other respects, he re-promises and will definitely do what he promised. Also, he doesn't seem to put on an official show. If he wore civilian clothes, no one would think that he was the captain of the gendarmerie.
He was brave and had never seen what he was afraid of, even when bullets and grenades flew in front of him. Nor will he show fear.
He has a good heart, and when he sees others in danger, he always rushes to the front to save people. ”
After listening to this, Ning Shoucheng said, "Is that all, what does he do to you?"
"He'll pay me back. At first, he always disliked me, avoided me, and didn't even give me water to drink. Later it was good for me. Dad, why are you asking this?" Ning Jingwen thought for a while and said.
"Is it possible that you and him have that kind of relationship?" Ning Shoucheng finally threw out the subject.
Ning Jingwen first froze for a moment, then understood, his face turned red, and he said in a low voice: "Dad, why would you ask such a question, I don't know." ”
Ning Shoucheng stared at his daughter and said, "Jingwen, you are not young, you should consider this issue." The reason why Hu Jiehua kidnapped you was because he misunderstood your relationship with Gong Xiaomu. Hu Jiehua thinks that the relationship between you and Gong Xiaomu is not clear, will others think the same? If many people have the same idea, but in fact you are not in this kind of relationship, it is very unfavorable to our Ning family. My attitude towards your marriage is that you must nod your head and agree, and then we will be the parents to examine it again, but try to respect your opinion. If you have thoughts about Gong Xiaomu, I want to find a way to talk to Gong Xiaomu, although the Gong family is a small family, but as far as I know, Gong Xiaomu is quite talented, and he is a good seedling if he cultivates it well. ”
"Daddy, don't scare him. I never mentioned you, he didn't know my dad was you. ”
"Hehe, do you think he doesn't know if you don't say it? I guess: when you first met, he shouldn't have known me, but when Liang Qianli appeared, he saw that you and Liang Qianli knew each other, and he should think of me. You're not saying that he didn't like you at first, and then he treated you well. Ning Shoucheng said.
"Well, it seems so. However, even when we met later, he didn't treat me very well. While eating in Springwater City, I took his arm, and he actually pulled his arm back. I was so angry that I insisted on holding him, but he had no choice but to agree. I saw that he looked reluctant, not like a fake. If he really knew that my father was you, let me hold it, I'm afraid he would have been happy a long time ago. ”
"Well, even if he didn't know it before, he should know it today. Ning Shoucheng said.
"Why should he know today?" asked Ning Wen, confused.
"I saw him at the airport and shook hands with him. When I looked at the way he looked, I knew that he was sure that you were my daughter. You can see if his attitude towards you changes in the future. ”
"Hmph, if he stammers me like a pug in the future, I will ignore him again. ”
"Then won't he stammering you now?"
"I don't see it, sometimes I feel like he doesn't see me as a woman. Ning Jingwen thought of this, a little frustrated.
"How's your interview going?" Ning Shoucheng changed his words and turned to Ning Ningwen's work.
"I asked some people in the morning, and from noon to now, the whole Dongshan City was in a commotion, and we were all resting in our rooms. ”
"You ask ordinary people and public officials about the clash between the gendarmerie and the Qinglongmen, especially to find eyewitnesses to the clashes. Ning Shoucheng said.
When Ruan Jingtian returned to No. 6 Orchid Garden, it was already eight o'clock in the evening. He stretched, there were too many things going on in the day today, and it was too messy. He sorted out his thoughts, feeling inexplicable that Hu Jiehua regarded him as a rival in love, and he was also inexplicable about Xiao Junyan innocently being shot for himself, and being kidnapped by Hu Jiehua's henchmen who mistook him for himself. Why did Hu Jiehua hate himself so much? Could it be that because he didn't deal with Hu Qiuyuan, he, who was a nephew, would go out of his way to kill himself? Listening to Hu Jiehua's words at the Dongyue Hotel, it seemed that he had nothing to do with Hu Qiuyuan, and he only regarded himself as a rival in love and hated him infinitely, but he had nothing to do with Ning Jingwen, so how could Hu Jiehua insist that Gong Xiaomu was snatching love with a sword?
Ruan Jingtian thinks that things are not as simple as they seem, Hu Jiehua was lost in crazy unrequited love, this is certain, but Hu Jiehua will not think that Gong Xiaomu is a rival in love for no reason, there must be a deep-seated reason behind this.
The indiscriminate suspicion of Hu Jiehua is related to the insistence that Gong Xiaomu and Ning Jingwen have something to do with it. Ruan Jingtian was quite helpless. At that time, there were many people eating at the hotel, and they must have seen and heard Hu Jiehua's nonsense, but others did not know that these words were nonsense, and if these people took these nonsense seriously and spread it everywhere, it would be quite unfavorable to Ruan Jingtian.
Once Ning Shoucheng hears these rumors, he will definitely think that he is deliberately spreading these rumors, so that others will mistakenly think that Gong Xiaomu is Ning Jingwen's boyfriend, and look at Gong Xiaomu differently. Even give benefits. This will make Gong Takashi wear a big hat of swaggering and deception.
He scolded Hu Jiehua in his heart: "How could a dignified agent of Zheguo do such a brainless thing and actually create rumors to harm me, it's really a pity to die." ”
Ruan Jingtian thought for a long time. I also didn't think of a good way to dispel rumors. Rumors come and go without a trace, and their lethality is huge, which is more difficult to deal with than a real devil.
He was too lazy to think about these headaches. Pick up the radio and start listening to the telegram. He knew that so many high-ranking officials had come to Dongshan City, and their telecommunications must have been frequent.
Really. Telegrams appeared in Ruan Jingtian's pen.
He hurriedly took out the codebook and deciphered them one by one, one of which attracted his special attention:
A suspicious fishing boat, heading south in the open sea, telegraphed to its vessel, but did not respond. Notify the Navy as soon as possible to intercept the fishing vessel.
In addition, the latitude and longitude positions of the fishing vessel are attached at the end of the message.
When Ruan Jingtian saw the word "fishing boat", he suddenly remembered that the Hu family had a medium-sized fishing boat that had been parked in the Longyin River. Hu Qiuyuan transferred his core members, family members, and gold and silver treasures before the incident, was it through the guò fishing boat?
He highly suspected that the fishing boat mentioned in the telegram was the fishing boat of the Hu family, and without a moment's hesitation, he immediately drove to the small bungalow on Longyin Road, got into the submarine, and sailed out of the Longyin River at full speed, into the inland sea, and headed for the open sea. Looking at the dark sea, he felt that the speed of the submarine was a little slow, so he parked the submarine in the bay near the nameless island, got out of the submarine, and then activated the button of the flight suit, and his body instantly rushed into the sky (see Chapter 88). He manipulated the buttons, followed the direction described in the message, skimmed the sea, and flew as fast as a big bird in the air.
The speed of the flying suit was indeed much faster than that of the submarine, and in less than half an hour, Ruan Jingtian found the fishing boat. However, to his surprise, there was also a Cheolkook frigate sailing in front of the fishing boat.
Ruan Jingtian remembered the telegram asking the frigate to intercept the fishing boat, but looking at this posture, where is the interception, it is clearly an escort. He didn't have time to think about the reason, so he decided to deal with the frigate first, and then see who was on the fishing boat.
Covering the flying figure of Ruan Jingtian in the night, he quietly landed on the deck at the back of the frigate, and then used stealth techniques to hide next to the machine gun at the rear of the hull. This is a standard frigate with a displacement of 1,500 tons and a total of more than 150 personnel, equipped with 127 mm main guns, two 37 mm machine guns, and dozens of depth charges, which can perform air defense, anti-submarine, escort and other tasks.
Ruan Jingtian pulled out the soft knife and manipulated the meditation sword, listened for a while, a smile appeared on his face, most of the devils began to fall asleep, and there were less than forty devils on duty.
He first harvested the lives of the Zheguo devils who had already gone to bed, and dealt with these people who had no ability to resist, and the meditation sword easily cut the necks of these people and ended their lives, and then he dealt with the remaining personnel on duty, whose number was less than forty, and after two hours of sneak attacks and fights, all of them also reported to the Dragon King of the Undersea.
In the process of fighting, he grabbed the captain of the ship and asked the reason for the incident: it turned out that the Hu family had a very deep relationship with the navy, and after the navy intercepted the fishing boat, it was found that it was the Hu family's escape ship. Immediately, the interception was changed to escort.
Nguyen Ching Tien used the frigate's radio to send a telegram to Tian Bojie, who was hidden in the nearby islands off the coast, and asked him to lead the maritime detachment of the Self-Reliance Regiment (see Chapter 72) to rush to this sea area.
He stopped the frigate and flew to the Hu family fishing boat. At this point, one of the sailors on the fishing boat noticed that something was wrong with the frigate and immediately reported it to the person in charge.
Ruan Jingtian landed silently on the deck, hiding, and observing the movement on the fishing boat. At first, some people cried out in panic. Suddenly, a crisp female voice scolded loudly, and the cry gradually weakened until only choked voices remained.
The six warriors slowly walked to the deck, looked at the frigate swaying in the sea, and then began to guard around the fishing boat.
Ruan Jingtian slowly appeared and stared coldly at the two martial artists in front of him. When these two warriors saw Ruan Jingtian, they were not surprised in the slightest, and one of them let out a whistle, and then said, "You are Gong Xiaomu." You can chase it here. Admire!"
When the other four people heard the whistle, they quickly ran over and surrounded Ruan Jingtian.
Ruan Jingtian didn't say a word, just looked at these martial artists.
The whistler said, "I really don't understand." What is the deep hatred between our Hu family and your palace family, you have to kill them all?"
Ruan Jingtian sneered in his heart, swung his soft knife violently, and rushed towards the three people in front.
The six people saw Ruan Jingtian attacking. Qi Qi shouted, and six long knives slashed at Ruan Jingtian.
Ruan Jingtian was not afraid, and the meditation sword blocked the three long knives behind him. The soft knife in his hand emitted a cold glow, covering the blades of the three people in front of him.
Bang bang, bang bang.
There was a crisp sound of staggered weapons in front and back, Ruan Jingtian resisted the three long knives, his fighting spirit was high, and he continued to attack fiercely forward, his style of play was all attack, without considering defense at all.
Finally, the two warriors in front of them were in different places, and the left arm of the whistle whistler flew out shoulder-to-shoulder. The meditation sword behind him is one against three, and it is not lagging behind. Ruan Jingtian roared, turned around and pounced on the three people behind him, and under the attack of the meditation sword and the soft sword, the heads of the three warriors all fell into the sea.
Ruan Jingtian turned to look at the person who made the whistle again, only to see him looking at Ruan Jingtian incredulously, sighed, turned the long knife upside down, and inserted it into his lower abdomen. The blade is halfway into the belly.
Silently watching the man fall on the deck, Ruan Jingtian's heart was like stopping the water, and he slowly walked to the cabin. I saw more than a dozen women and children walking out of the cabin one after another, all of them carrying packages, and the first beautiful middle-aged woman looked at Ruan Jingtian coldly and did not say a word.
Ruan Jingtian stopped, he didn't want to slaughter the helpless women and children, and was about to ask them to return to the cabin, but the beautiful woman suddenly pulled the two children and jumped into the vast sea, and then the people who followed also jumped into the sea.
Ruan Jingtian watched these people disappear into the waves, and infinite emotion rose in his heart. This is war, and the most suffering is the common people, women and children, and the price they pay for the war is death.
When he entered the cabin, he found that there was very little belongings left, and he guessed that the packages behind the women and children who had jumped into the sea were all gold and silver. These people are also ruthless enough, jumping into the sea with such heavy belongings, they will sink directly to the bottom of the sea, leaving no life at all.
After a while, Tian Bojie led four fishing boats to sail over and was pleasantly surprised to find that Ruan Jingtian had captured a complete frigate. After Ruan Jingtian explained some things to him, Tian Bojie left a fishing boat for Ruan Jingtian, and then drove the frigate, the Hu family's fishing boat, and the remaining three fishing boats of his own side to the hiding place of the maritime detachment of the Self-Reliance Regiment.
Ruan Jingtian drove the fishing boat towards the nameless island. Suddenly, he saw in the distance two destroyers flying the flag of the Manguo Nation heading towards the open sea. He thought about it for a long time, and finally remembered that it was a ship sent by the Manguo to search for the missing transport ship, which was carrying Simmons's five thousand tons of steel. He remembered the telegram saying that the Mans were sending three ships and a submarine (see Chapter 76), so there should be another ship and a submarine nearby.
Ruan Jingtian looked at the destroyers of the Manguo Kingdom in the distance, and thought to himself that if he could get these Manguo ships, then the maritime strength of the Self-Reliance Group would be greatly increased.
Ruan Jingtian returned to the small bungalow on Longyin Road, he saw a sack of tapes obtained from Shengmei Commerce, and his heart moved, thinking that Hu Qiuyuan was being detained, if Hu Qiuyuan confessed to the dirty things of Gong Xiaomu's ascendancy, then the secret of his possession of the tape would be exposed, which was a very bad thing.
He thought of the off-topic meaning of Ning Shoucheng's speech at the meeting, and seemed to be very dissatisfied with the officialdom of Dongshan City, and he should find out a group of officials with ghosts, and Gong Xiaomu, who he pretended to be, was one of the officials with ghosts in his heart, Ning Shoucheng would not allude to himself, right?
Ruan Jingtian thought to himself: If Ning Shoucheng really wants to target himself, then he must run away and go to the self-reliance group to restore Ruan Jingtian's identity and occupy the mountain as the king. Although he can kill devils, without the identity of a Zheguo official, it is difficult for him to obtain timely and useful top-secret information, which is very detrimental to his revenge. If Ning Shoucheng didn't come specifically for himself, then he still had a chance.
He thought about it for a long time, and finally decided to gamble, if he was unlucky, he still had a flying suit, and it should be no problem to run away.
Ruan Jingtian picked out six tapes related to Hu Qiuyuan from the sack, and another six tapes related to other officials, put them into a big bag, and then quietly walked out of the small bungalow and drove back to No. 6 Orchid Garden. By this time it was almost dawn.
He took a shower, went to bed and squinted for less than two hours, quickly got up, took a large bag with a cassette tape, and went to the designated guest house of the War Department.
Ruan Jingtian looked at his watch, the time pointed to half past seven in the morning, he estimated that Ning Shoucheng should get up, after all, this is to deal with the mess of Dongshan City's officialdom, not to play in the mountains and rivers, Ning Shoucheng should not sleep lazy.
He asked the guards to report Ning Shoucheng and said that Gong Xiaomu, the captain of the Dongshan City Gendarmerie, asked to see him.
In less than five minutes, Ruan Jingtian came to Ning Shoucheng's face. First of all, he made a profound self-examination, saying that his thinking was not pure, and that he used improper means when he was running for the post of captain of the gendarmerie; then he recounted that his entanglement with Hu Qiuyuan was of course limited to the contradiction between Gong Xiaomu and the Hu family, and that in order to save his sister who worked in the water agency, he had no choice but to threaten Hu Xiaoyuan and Hu Qiuyuan with a tape recording, asking Hu Qiuyuan to help him take the position, and asking Hu Xiaoyuan to compensate for the loss of 2 billion Zheyuan; finally, Ruan Jingtian took out a bag of tapes and handed them to Ning Shoucheng, saying that they were occasionally picked up in a small alley not far behind Shengmei Commerce, and that he edited the tapes about Hu Qiuyuan and made a tape, threatening Hu Qiuyuan.
Ning Shoucheng's face was impassive, and after listening to Ruan Jingtian's frank and wrong confession, he finally said: "Is it over? I heard that Jiang Xuezi's tapes appeared in Dongshan City, and you made these tapes." ”
Ruan Jingtian refused to admit to framing Jiang Xuezi, he knew that Hu Qiuyuan was now a water dog, and he could step on it as much as he wanted, but the matter about Jiang Xuezi must not be touched, because framing Jiang Xuezi is framing Xiao Junyan, and the crime of murdering the top boss is extremely huge.
