Invisible Guardian: The Biggest Winner

"Sorry, I don't know the news either... Consul Muto is a nobleman and holds an important position. People in the special high school don't have the guts to do it."

"I thought so too, but Section Chief Akiyama didn't seem to be talking. By the way, when I went to see Consul Muto yesterday, he gave me this note."

As he said that, Lu Wen took out the note from his pocket, handed it to Changtian Xinming, and said, "The consul said that the people on the list can be trusted. If I have trouble, I will go to them for help."

Nagata Arina took the note, glanced at the name on it, found that it was his own, and then confirmed the handwriting, which was indeed that of Consul Muto.

He said, "What do you need me to do for you?"

"Confirm whether Consul Muto is dead..."

"This is no problem. Consul Muto has many friends. I can ask them to confirm... I will give you an answer when I have the result."

"Give me an answer in three days, three days at the latest."

"it is good."

"There is another thing, and that is to bring Miss Muto back to Shanghai."

Nagata Arina frowned: "Why did you take Ms. Muto back to Shanghai? Consul Muto has an accident now, and it is even more inappropriate to take her back to Shanghai."

Lu Wen said: "Consul Muto received the news from the military headquarters that there will be a military attack on the U.S. military soon. He doesn't know exactly when. Originally, he wanted to take Miss Muto back to Shanghai for refuge after the war broke out. But Consul Muto didn't expect that he would be framed and sent to prison, and it might be too late later, so he wanted to let Miss Muto return to Shanghai in advance."

Nagata Arina was silent. As one of the heads of Muto Mansion, he knew more information.

Since August 1941, the United States has announced an oil embargo against Japan. The oil embargo of the United States has left Japan with a ruthless timetable, and the military and industrial sectors are consuming at a rate of 8 tons per 24 hours Japan's National Strategic Petroleum Reserve.

The military leaders, on the other hand, have repeatedly held meetings with the cabinet to discuss. The Japanese navy has begun to transfer a lot of troops from Shanghai. The information from various sources shows that the military is going to attack the US military. .

Otherwise, when the oil is exhausted, their planes, tanks and ships will become a pile of scrap iron, a decoration, useless at all.

Therefore, Changtian Xinming did not doubt what Lu Wen said. Besides, he believed that as Lu Wen, he would not have access to these confidential information. Now he knew that the consul must have told him.

So Nagata Arina nodded: "I understand, I will send someone to bring Ms. Muto back to Shanghai from Japan as soon as possible, and send more people to protect... Sigh, I don't have many trusted people here anymore."

Lu Wen said aloud: "Don't worry, Miss Muto's safety can be entrusted to me to protect."

Nagata Shinna nodded: "Okay, after I find out the news, I will give you an answer immediately."

Chapter 0247 Launch Action

After Lu Wen left Nagata Xinming's home, he was not idle, he had to continue acting.

So I looked for people everywhere to find out the whereabouts of Muto Zhixiong.

-

After the train overturned, Xiao Tu also passed out. When he woke up, he found that he was carried by someone and kept away from the train.

Xiao Tu took a closer look and found that the person behind his back was Yi Jiangang who put him in prison!

This made Xiao Tu immediately realize that the assassin Lu Wen arranged was exactly the other party.

Director Lu really has great powers, and he was able to arrange his own people by Asano Hirofumi's side.

Xiao Tu sighed secretly in his heart, and suddenly heard gunshots behind him. He looked back and found that Li Feng, the chief of the secret service, was killing them!

He is also his own?

Xiao Tu was startled, and then he understood that Li Feng was deliberately standing on the opposite side of Lu Wen.

Bang bang bang!

As the gunshots got closer, Xiao Tu hurriedly said, "Put me down."

Yi Jiangang put Xiao Tu down, then took out a gun from his waist, handed it to the other party, and said, "Go, I'll cover you."

Xiao Tu was startled, and then said resolutely, "I can't go!"

Yi Jiangang showed a cold face: "My task is to protect you, you must not die."

Xiao Tu was silent, remembering that he still had the final task to perform, and his mortal heart gradually sank.

Yi Jiangang gave Xiao Tu a push: "Let's go... Asano Hirofumi's death, someone must be responsible for it."

After some mental struggle, Xiao Tu made up his mind, turned around and ran away.

After returning to Shanghai, Xiao Tu read the news from the newspaper: the assassin who assassinated Hirofumi Asano had been shot dead on the spot.

Below, there are photos of Yi Jiangang and Li Feng.

Xiao Tu resisted the pain in his heart and contacted Lu Wen again.

-

[Return safely to Shanghai and continue the mission. 】

Li Feng and Yi Jiangang are still dead, and the ending is not too happy.

This made Lu Wen sigh.

He had a plan to keep Li Feng and Yi Jiangang alive, but Lu Wen worried that one day in the future, Xiao Tu's inner faith would be shaken.

So, he let fate make the decision, and gave the two of them the task of protecting Xiao Tu. As for how to protect him, they played by ear.

As No. [-] said:

I can provide you with many things, information, tasks, helpers, weapons, so that you can continue to implement the original belief.

But I also have things that I cannot offer you, like status, recognition, glory.

Xiao Tu has sacrificed too much, it's time for someone to sacrifice for him.

When he fell into darkness, betrayal, and temptation in the future, when he looked back, he remembered those who gave his life to him repeatedly and supported him to continue walking.

Burn this note.

Lu Wen sorted out his emotions, then began to pick up his pen and wrote a short sentence: [Notice, it's started].

Put it into the envelope, and called Hu Yibiao: "Hand the letter to Nightingale."

Hu Yibiao took the envelope, turned and left.

After Hu Yibiao left, Zhuang Xiaoman came in, and she said, "Director, Director Wang asked you to go to her office."

"I see."

Lu Wen nodded, he stood up and said, "Xiaoman, don't act rashly during this time, Shio Muto is dead, so the Japanese will launch a large-scale search... Also, please inform Boss Liang for me to stop any action."

Zhuang Xiaoman knew the seriousness of this matter: "Xiaoman understands."

After some instructions, Lu Wen went to Wang Manchun's office in No. 76 headquarters.

When Wang Manchun saw him, he just wanted to ask about Li Feng's situation.

-

Xiao Tu performed the mission and escaped unscathed. If it was before, Gao Yuan would have treated him well and let him be his eyes and ears around Muto Zhixiong.

However, he received news from the Japanese that Shio Muto was dead.

With Shio Muto dead, the things that Xiao Tu did would be completely meaningless.

After thinking about it, Gao Yuan finally made a decision.

Now that No. [-] began to doubt his identity, it was difficult to obtain important information from No. [-].

Shio Muto is also dead, the channels for exchanging information are gone, and the Japanese are starting to mess up again. By that time, Shanghai will inevitably have a bloodbath, and there is no point in staying here anymore. It is better to go back to Chongqing.

Thinking of this, Gao Yuan began to prepare for the implementation of the assassination plan. Xiao Tu, who he met again, gave him the last order of the underground party.

Gao Yuan: "Xiao Tu, you have completed the plan to assassinate Asano Hirobumi well, but the plan can't keep up with the changes. Do you know that Consul Muto was arrested?"

Xiao Tu nodded: "Got it..."

Gao Yuan: "According to reliable sources, this is the result of the Japanese civil strife. The organization let us take the opportunity to fan the flames, causing more Japanese casualties and causing more trouble for the Japanese!"

"Dong Wangcheng, the owner of a chemical fertilizer factory in Shanghai, is disguised as a Japanese spy. He secretly conducts an investigation to see who provides supplies to the anti-Japanese fighters. He will go home at noon tomorrow, and you will deal with him then. "

Hearing the name "Dong Wangcheng", Xiao Tu knew that the main event was coming. He hesitated: "Comrade Farmer, I... am a little tired and want to rest for a while. Can you give this task to other comrades?"

Gao Yuan patted him on the shoulder: "Xiao Tu, I know you have been exhausted during this time, and you have spent a lot of thought to assassinate Asano Hirofumi. But now is the critical period, and other comrades are going to perform missions... I I really trouble you because I can’t find anyone.”

"Don't worry, I can assure you... After performing this assassination mission, you can rest for a long time."

Xiao Tu received Gao Yuan's guarantee, and then he accepted the task.

-

On Dong Wangcheng's side, after receiving the letter conveyed by Lu Wangshu, he was silent for a long time.

Afterwards, he wrote a letter and handed it to Lu Wangshu: "As usual, hand over the letter to that patriotic comrade."

After receiving the letter, Lu Wangshu didn't know why she felt uncomfortable. She asked, "No. [-], there have been frequent accidents in Shanghai these days, and even a senior Japanese military officer died. What happened?"

Dong Wangcheng didn't want her to know too much, for fear that she would worry about it, and said: "There have been some disturbances recently, but you don't have to worry too much, I will deal with them. Also, I will leave Shanghai for a while. As for when I’m not sure if I’ll come back, so before I come back, you’ll be in single-line contact with patriotic comrades temporarily.”

Seeing that Dong Wangcheng didn't say anything, Lu Wangshu nodded, "I understand."

Dong Wangcheng asked, "Comrade Nightingale, did you bring a gun when you went out?"

Lu Wangshu shook his head: "No... recently the Japanese have checked strictly, so they didn't bring it."

Without further ado, Dong Wangcheng took out a pistol from the drawer and handed it to her: "Take it well, use it for self-defense on the road."

Lu Wangshu sensed that something was wrong. Dong Wangcheng seemed to have something to hide, and the other party didn't say anything, so she could only nod and answer: "Okay, I see..."

Saying that Lu Wangshu turned around to leave, Dong Wangcheng called her again: "The letter must never be discovered..."

Lu Wangshu's heart froze, and the confusion in his heart deepened.

She nodded, put away her pistol, and left the factory.

Dong Wangcheng stood by the window, looking at Lu Wangshu who was going away, and then someone followed.

Seeing this, Dong Wangcheng's heart sank. Sure enough, as he guessed, there was Gao Yuan's eyeliner in the factory.

Fortunately, he didn't hand the letter to Lu Wangshu, so as not to disturb her mind.

Taking out an envelope from the drawer, Dong Wangcheng hesitated for a while, but finally made a decision.

"Comrade Nightingale, I hope you can survive the blow and don't let me down..."
