A different kind of Lou Chun - "The Pretender" colleague

Wang Manchun was so immersed in his own thoughts that he was stunned for two seconds when he received a call from Ah Cheng.

"Hey, are you listening?" Ah Cheng's anxious voice sounded from the other end: "Speak!"

"Got it. Don't panic, I'll take care of it."

Wang Manchun came to his senses, put down the phone, hurried out with guns and bullets, and couldn't help cursing: "Bastard!"

In the new government office, Ming Lou paced the office with his hands behind his back, and asked Ah Cheng, "Is the scene set up?"

"It's set up. It looks like it was washed out by the rain. I threw Mingtai's watch at the scene of the crime and waited for Holmes on No. 76 to solve the case."

When Ah Cheng said this, he lowered his eyes slightly, not daring to look at Minglou directly.

Fortunately, Minglou didn't notice it, and then asked: "Where is Zhu Huiyin?"

"All the important clues have been thrown out. This information will lead Liang Zhongchun to turn his target to Mingtai. Now, we have already betrayed him."

"Does the poisonous bee have anything to say?"

"The poisonous bee said that if the poisonous scorpion is arrested, he will follow your plan. But if something goes wrong today, the command will belong to him."

Minglou said: "I talked to Venomous Bee about his action plan, but he refused to disclose any details. Although I know his plan must be more effective, it will definitely be more deadly. It depends on today's 76th, whether it can be stolen Got it."

Ah Cheng looked at his watch, unable to hide his panic and anxiety.Although I don't know Wang Manchun's specific plan, but judging from the current situation, the poisonous bee obviously did not follow her plan.When he went out yesterday, his eldest brother had instructed Zhu Huiyin to reveal the pick-up location of the code book, but he came back late and only found out this morning.As long as Mingtai is arrested right now, nothing can stop the elder brother from sacrificing himself.He could only silently say over and over again in his heart: Sister Manchun, you must let Mingtai escape smoothly!

Wang Manchun rushed to HSBC Bank, observing the surrounding situation sharply all the way.Opposite the gate, Liang Zhongchun was sitting in the car chatting with Takagi leisurely, and he was not surprised to see her coming, on the contrary, he was proud to show off.The entire bank building, including the adjacent streets, has been firmly controlled without any flaws. It is no wonder that they are confident in their determination to win.Wang Manchun was burning with worry, but on the surface he still had his usual domineering face.This time, he didn't even have to say hello, and walked past them into the lobby arrogantly.

There was chaos in the lobby.The two action teams quickly numbered 40 people, clamoring around the bank manager to search the vault upstairs.

Wang Manchun strode forward and slapped the captain of the first action team who yelled the most, and shouted, "What's your name? Do you want to startle the snake? Get back!"

"Director Wang, our people have been in the vault for a while."

Wang Manchun looked at his watch and said, "I'll go up and have a look. You stay here and wait quietly for me! This is the French Concession, please restrain yourself, and don't act rashly without my order!"

The agents spread out in all directions.Wang Manchun took out the key and said to the bank manager, "Sir, I want to use my safe."

As the manager walked to the vault on the second floor, the moment the door opened, Wang Manchun saw the corpse on the ground, and the door to the inner passage was about to close.

She immediately slapped the manager unconscious who was about to call out, and chased him out from the internal passage.

After chasing all the way to the rooftop, Wang Manchun drew his gun and shouted, "Mingtai, stop!"

Mingtai stopped when he heard the sound, and there was nowhere to escape in all directions.He suddenly turned his head and pointed the gun at her with complicated eyes: "Sister Manchun, are you here to catch me?"

"Give me the things, and you go!" Wang Manchun said, throwing a key to him: "This is the key to your eldest sister's safe. You go back to the vault and call for help. You don't know what happened."

"You want to let me go?" Mingtai instinctively reached out to pick up the key, with a puzzled look on his face.

"They will definitely search. Bring the things, or you won't be able to leave." Wang Manchun said again.

"Impossible!" After a brief moment of surprise, Mingtai regained his determination: "Either let me go, or kill me here."

"Little kid, I don't have time to talk nonsense with you!" Wang Manchun called out his childhood nickname in a hurry, and walked straight to him: "This is a trap, if you don't leave, it will be too late!"

"Stop and don't move!" Mingtai tightly clenched the gun in his hand: "Come here again and I'll shoot!"

"Mingtai, be obedient! How do you get away with your things?" Wang Manchun was secretly anxious, not knowing how to make him believe in herself.

"Do you still think I'm a teenager?" Mingtai raised his head proudly: "If I can come, I can go."

Before Mingtai finished speaking, a team of spies had quietly surrounded him.Wang Manchun's expression changed drastically, and he raised his gun and fired.But Mingtai mistakenly thought that she was going to shoot him, and subconsciously shot back while dodging.

At the same time as the two spies rushing to the front were shot dead by Wang Manchun, she herself was hit by Mingtai and fell to the ground, bleeding profusely from her right flank.

Mingtai turned around in astonishment, only then did he realize his mistake.While shooting to stop the enemy, he rushed to Wang Manchun's side and called tremblingly, "Sister Manchun?"

At this time, the spies had surrounded him from all sides.

"I'm fine. Kill 'em! Take aim!"

Wang Manchun ordered decisively, already thinking about it.At that time, her order was not to move without her order.The first ones to rush forward were the two groups of Liang Zhongchun's most trusted second action team, a total of 12 people.And the sixteen bullets in her and Mingtai's two guns are enough.

Pressing the wound with her right hand and holding the gun with her left, she stood up and faced Mingtai, covering each other, shooting repeatedly without missing a shot.There was instant gunfire on the rooftop, and the enemies who rushed forward were shot dead one by one.

Taking advantage of this trick, Wang Manchun said to Mingtai while reloading bullets: "You go!"

"how about you?"

"Can't you go? Go!" Wang Manchun sternly said, "I'll be fine if you go, understand?"

Mingtai understands.Get up, take a deep breath, and run away.

Another group of people rushed up.

Wang Manchun continued to block and kill the spies who were trying to rush forward.Looking back again, I saw Mingtai jumping up like a big bird, and flew to the opposite roof.

Good boy!She couldn't help admiring in her heart.Another three bursts of shots ended up killing the last three people who rushed up to the rooftop.She let herself fall to the ground exhausted before more agents rushed up from below.

137 Scott Road.

Zhu Huiyin squatted down to examine the remains of paper in the brazier, and analyzed the content of the message from the faintly visible fragments of unburned words.

"Team leader, I found a radio station, and this."

Zhu Huiyin raised her eyes.It was a gorgeous and eye-catching silk scarf, and it looked like a high-quality Suzhou embroidery, so the price must be high.

"It seems that the owner of this radio station is still a woman." Someone said below.

Zhu Huiyin put the silk scarf under her nose, sniffing the feminine fragrance on it.I thought over and over again in my mind: This silk scarf looks familiar, I must have seen it somewhere.The above smell is also very familiar, where did you smell it?

"Director Wang, wake up!"

"Director Wang, Director Wang!"

"Director Wang, are you okay?"

Wang Manchun was helped up in a daze, and felt that the ringing of calls in his ears was very annoying.

"Shut up!" She opened her eyes and angrily stopped the crowd in front of her from shouting in panic.His eyes became sharp, and he frowned and reprimanded: "Why did you come here now?"

"Beizhi has been waiting for your order in the lobby, and ran up immediately after hearing the gunshot."

"Yes Yes!"

"Director Wang, are you okay? The ambulance will be here soon."

The people below began to sell it in a hurry.When they rushed up just now, they suddenly saw the corpses of their colleagues all over the ground. They really didn't know whether to be lucky or afraid.

Wang Manchun gritted his teeth and asked, "Where's the person?"

"Run, run."

"A bunch of trash!" Wang Manchun scolded: "We obviously trapped him on the rooftop, will he still be able to fly?"

"Director Wang, calm down! Director Liang has led people to blockade the nearby streets and search for suspicious people. You are injured, so don't get angry."

The little leaders of the action team around her lowered their heads tremblingly.They all knew Director Wang's temper.If she hadn't been injured and weak all over at this moment, she would have been slapped several times already.

So when they saw the medical staff coming in a hurry, they all secretly breathed a sigh of relief and made way out in unison.

Wang Manchun let go of the hand that was pressing on the wound, and asked the doctors and nurses who came to bandage it.She knew that Mingtai's shot didn't hurt any internal organs, but she lost too much blood, and now she was too weak to move.

It's really bad luck, one after another injury, and every time the injury is wronged.She thought, fortunately this little fellow Mingtai was lenient, otherwise she would be more wronged than Dou E if she died under his gun.

In Minglou's office, the phone rang suddenly, breaking the silence of the room.

Minglou Ah Cheng was shocked.

Minglou picked up the receiver.

Ah Cheng watched nervously from the side, not daring to miss every subtle expression on his face.

"Blue comes out of blue." On the other end of the phone, Wang Tianfeng spoke calmly and calmly: "I'm a substitute."

Minglou silently put down the receiver.

Ah Cheng leaned over, leaned down and asked tentatively, "Is Mingtai okay?"

"the student surpasses the master."

Hearing this, Ah Cheng slowly straightened up and secretly let out a long breath.

Ming Lou fell into the abyss heartbroken, and said with great pain: "Our plan has failed. Now, the command power belongs to the poisonous bee."

Ah Cheng's face was tense, not daring to show the slightest sense of relief.

In the ambulance, Akita treated Wang Manchun's wound.

"I really didn't expect Mr. Akita to come in person."

"Yingzi told me that you hurried out early in the morning, and I knew there must be something wrong."

Akita sighed, with a look of pity on his face: "I have been with me in Japan for three years and haven't been hurt a few times. It's only been a few days now, why did I hurt myself again? Too careless!"

"I don't want to either!" Wang Manchun smiled wryly: "Fortunately, the bullet went through. Please Mr. Akita sew it up quickly, and use more painkillers. I still have urgent things to do."

Akita stared: "If you are so injured, you still want to go out and run around?"

"No way, it's urgent."

"Do you need me to send someone to help you?"

"No." Wang Manchun replied, "I just need to change into a set of men's clothes and a car. You can make arrangements at the hospital so that no one can know that I'm not here."

"Okay." Akita agreed, and then urged: "This injury is not serious, but you can't do strenuous activities. You bleed a lot, so be careful!"

"clear."

"Now you take a break to accumulate strength. Wait until you are downstairs in the hospital, then change your clothes and drive my car away."

Wang Manchun closed his eyes as he said, but his mind kept turning thoughts.Mingtai has already obtained the code book.The poisonous bee's next step must be to throw itself into the trap.But Shanghai is so big, there are checkpoints everywhere, which one will he go to?

Wang Manchun pondered his train of thought carefully.Just now, he must have been waiting and watching not far from HSBC until Mingtai was out of danger.HSBC is located in the French Concession, bordering on the Huangpu River in the east and the Public Settlement in the north, poisonous bees should not go in these two directions.The guard post of Guandi Temple to the west is very far away, the biggest possibility is the enemy-occupied area to the south, and the poisonous bee should have gone to the moat checkpoint.

"Are you coming soon?" She couldn't help but feel a little anxious.

"It's almost there." Akita helped her sew up and bandage the wound, and handed over a set of men's clothes and a hat: "I changed my clothes, it smells like blood."

When Liang Zhongchun once again stood in Minglou's office to plead guilty, Minglou was extremely impatient.

"Mr. Ming, it's not that our No. 76 is ineffective. It's just that this poisonous scorpion is too elusive, fierce and cunning! We have set up a net, and even now I don't understand how he can come and go freely and kill [-] of our brothers. Director Wang was injured by him."

The last sentence is tantamount to a bolt from the blue.Minglou raised his head abruptly, he was still a little bit stupefied for a moment.

"But don't worry, Chief Ming. Director Wang has been sent back to the hospital. I heard that the injury is not serious." Liang Zhongchun carefully observed his words and continued to say: "She should have recuperated in the hospital when she was injured, and I don't know where to get it." Knowing today's actions, I have to rush over by myself, and the result..."

Minglou's expression was livid, tightly clutching a file in his hand, trying his best to stabilize his emotions.It's not that he didn't suspect that Man Chun might do something, especially after seeing the pair of dolls yesterday, he felt even more uneasy.But not only Ah Cheng was so sure that she obediently did not run around in the hospital, even the answer he got when interrogating Zhu Huiyin last night was the same.Could it be that they were all lying to him?

He suddenly raised his eyebrows: "How many people did you bring to the bank? She is a woman who was injured in the first place, and she is also the head of the Tangtang No. 76 intelligence department. You couldn't protect her and let her get injured again! What are you doing?" of?"

"Mr. Ming, calm down!" Liang Zhongchun lowered his head, his voice trembling: "It's her... She insisted on going up first, and ordered our people not to move. I sent two groups of people to follow quietly just to protect She, in the end...all died."

Liang Zhongchun's words made Minglou roughly guess what happened at that time.It turns out that Mingtai was able to escape because Manchun sacrificed his life to save her, and it must be Ah Cheng who tipped her off!He dared to do such a move behind his back, while putting Man Chun in danger, wouldn't he directly push Ming Tai to death!

Minglou's dark eyes were cold, and the dark anger was burning.With a wave of his hand, the deformed stack of documents scattered and scattered all over the place.

"Could it be that his poisonous scorpion is a god? Can he go to the sky and hide in the earth, invulnerable?"

"Incompetent in a humble position, he has the high expectations of a responsible officer. Convicted of a humble position, he will be punished." Liang Zhongchun's legs trembled, and he was covered in cold sweat.

"You go out first!" Minglou waved his hand irritably, he urgently needs someone to calm down the emotions that are about to explode.

Liang Zhongchun looked embarrassed, and muttered in a low voice: "Ming...Master Ming, there is one more thing..."

Minglou gritted his teeth and endured: "Say!"

"We found traces of poisonous bees at the moat checkpoint."

"Oh? Got it?" Ming Lou asked in a calm tone.

"This..." Liang Zhongchun paused, buried his head even lower, and continued, "Just when we were about to capture him alive, a car rushed out and rescued him."

"what?"

"According to my speculation, this should be the work of the poisonous scorpion."

Minglou's heart tightened suddenly, and now he didn't even have the energy to get angry.Instead, there was a bone-chilling chill like falling into an ice cave.To be able to prevent the poisonous bee from throwing himself into the net in such a timely manner, this person must not only understand his intentions, but also accurately guess his specific position.Not to mention Taiwan, even Ah Cheng couldn't do it.This must be a person who has dealt with the poisonous bee for a long time and is very familiar with his way of thinking.Apart from myself, I am afraid there is only one person who can do it.

Minglou fell back to his seat, feeling as if the whole world was instantly overturned.

He originally thought that Ah Cheng just asked Man Chun to help him in a hurry to prevent him from implementing the plan.But now it seems that it is a more terrifying situation.The assassination miss, the poisonous bee's test of Manchun's identity, Miyue's reappearance, that Qiutian in the army hospital, Manchun sent out the doll that has been treasured for many years to help Mingtai escape and save the poisonous bee. . .She was clearly setting up a long-planned game, but she was kept in the dark!

"It's all due to the ineffectiveness of the 76th, and the humble staff is heartbroken!" Liang Zhongchun said tremblingly: "The humble staff assures Chief Ming that we will definitely..."

Before he finished speaking, Minglou picked up the phone and shouted sharply: "Ah Cheng, come here!"

Ah Cheng appeared almost in the next second.Pushing open the door and seeing the mess in the office and Minglou's pale face, he stood with Liang Zhongchun guiltily in front of Minglou with bowed head.

He just got an urgent report from Zhu Huiyin.The disappearance of the landlord at 137 Scott Road was not unexpected, but a woman's silk scarf was found next to the seized radio station.What is even more frightening is that among the scraps of paper that have not been completely burned, there are actually communication records with Yan'an!The ominous premonition in his heart became more and more intense, fearing whether he had made a fatal mistake again.

Minglou looked at Ah Cheng coldly.No need to ask, his expression has confirmed all his guesses.

Minglou felt that he was about to go mad with anger.

"Go, go to the scene and have a look."

He stood up abruptly and walked out without looking back.

A black car was speeding down the tree-lined path at high speed.

While driving, Ah Cheng timidly looked at Minglou's expression in the rearview mirror, wanted to speak but dared not.From the time he came out of the office until now, Ming Lou only said one word to him: Find them.And the only information I got from the moat checkpoint was that the car was heading straight for the concession.Wang Manchun and the Venomous Bee have different positions, and they should not take each other to the contact point of either party, which makes things more difficult.Parks, restaurants, dance halls, theaters, the concession is so big, there are possibilities everywhere, where can I find them?

What surprised him even more was Minglou's attitude. In the past 17 years, the eldest brother has never treated him so coldly.In the past, no matter what mistakes he made, be it beating, scolding, or punishment, the elder brother was still the elder brother, his closest family member.But now, the eldest brother didn't even have a sullen expression, just calm and distant like a stranger, looking at him with indifferent eyes that made him tremble all over.

Ming Lou sat silently on the back seat of the car, staring out the window without saying a word.Only he himself knew that under his calm appearance was a nerve that was on the verge of collapse.Man Chun actually controlled Ah Cheng behind his back and joined forces with Wang Tianfeng. She must want to replace Ming Tai to complete the death plan!Realizing this, Minglou fell into unprecedented panic and fear while being outraged.No one can stop what Man Chun is determined to do.Since she has carefully planned for these many days, she must have designed every link.Is it still too late?How would he pull her out of this vortex?

Minglou kept taking deep breaths to stabilize himself.He's not a god, and he's not powerful at all.On weekdays, he can do all sorts of calculations to control the overall situation, but once the people he cares about are involved, he will panic to the point where he is completely confused, anxious but at a loss what to do.

"Brother, where are they going?" Ah Cheng couldn't help being anxious, and asked him boldly.

Minglou gritted his teeth hard, reached out and pressed his temple.Man Chun's actions have disrupted all his previous thoughts.Now, his mind was blank except for severe dizziness and pain.

"No. 76 has sent additional staff to set up checkpoints at various traffic arteries in the concession. In broad daylight, she is carrying poisonous bees, where should she hide?"

"Turn around." Ming Lou said suddenly, he thought of a place.

"what?"

"They are not in the concession. Going to the concession is just a cover. They are going to the enemy-occupied area."

"Enemy-occupied area?" Ah Cheng was surprised: "Is there any place to go there?"

"Our alma mater."

When Minglou uttered these words, his heart was pierced like a knife.When he and Manchun first met, his alma mater moved from the French Concession to a new school building, and Manchun also followed him into the high school attached to the university.The next five years were the happiest golden years of his life.When he came back to visit relatives after going abroad, he also visited his alma mater, but there was only a trace of Yiren, and every plant and tree in his hometown was full of injuries.During the August [-]th Incident three years ago, the Japanese army invaded Shanghai, and all the buildings of his alma mater were blown up by the Japanese army. He did not dare to go back to Shanghai this time to pay his respects.Come to think of it, the Qingqing campus full of old memories is already a mess and deserted, with only broken tiles and ruins left of the glory of the past.Could it be that their love is also like this?

Minglou tried hard to cheer himself up.

In any case, as long as people are still there, everything has room for reversal.He quickly reorganized what happened.Obviously, Manchun and Venomous Bee did not reach an agreement on the action plan.What happened this morning was a rape for the three of them.
