Findings at sea

Just before the Xi'an Incident, the Mu family cooperated with Mingchen Watanabe out of helplessness, and the ribbon-cutting ceremony was held in Huizhong Restaurant.

As night falls, Shanghai Bund is still singing and dancing, and there is nothing unusual in the peaceful world, which is whitewashed with luxury and gold.Mu Ke was drinking in the Imperial Garden, watching the dancers coquettishly on stage with drunken eyes.Du Zihao touched the goblet with the glass in his hand, drank it down, and said, "Why are you here?"

Mu Ke glanced at him, shaking the wine glass, crushing the goblet in his hand with a sullen expression, red liquid flowed from between his fingers, it was hard to tell whether it was wine or blood.He shook off the shards of glass on his hands and took out a gun from his pocket, with a cold look in his eyes, "I'll kill him!"

Du Zihao put his hand on his palm, "Together."

The entrance of Huizhong Restaurant was paved with a red carpet early, the waiters stood neatly in two rows, luxury cars were parked at the entrance one by one, and the visitors were either wealthy businessmen or Japanese, as well as pawnbrokers in normal clothes. For officials, people from the gang will naturally come to intervene.The hall was resplendent and magnificent, with crystal chandeliers shining brightly, the reception table was covered with red tablecloths, and on two carved copper pillars hung big red flowers that were about to participate in the ribbon-cutting.The whole hall is full of fish and dragons...

Feng Youqiao had inquired about the news a long time ago, and he had already made plans to blow up the Japanese and traitors.

Feng Youqiao waited for a man in a black suit, who said his name was Yantai.Not much to say, Yamadera Yuki took out a lunch box-shaped object from his bosom and handed it to Feng Youqiao, leaning into his ear and whispering, "Remember, put the lunch box under the towel on your arm and hide it. Even if someone suspects it, don’t be nervous so as not to show your feet, the bomb primer is on the handle, remember, run through the back door after throwing it, there will be no one to meet you.”

Feng Youqiao nodded solemnly. In his hand was a powerful hand grenade that Shansi invited a German bomb-making expert to make with a lot of money.After a long period of dormancy, Yamadera was lucky enough to become a raccoon dog with Katogawa, the Japanese consul in China. He wanted to use Feng Youqiao's hand to kill Akito Watanabe, using this as a gimmick to get Katogawa to come forward and annex the Mu family's mine in one fell swoop.He has never been greedy for money and power, but only for him, and he will give him what he wants.

As soon as Feng Youqiao mingled into the crowd, the spotlights turned on the central stage. In an instant, the reporters swarmed up, scrambling to take pictures, and Mu Hua followed Mu Rusong slowly onto the stage.On the other side, Akito Watanabe also came on stage, followed by many people from the Japanese consulate and several high-ranking officials in Japanese military uniforms. Feng Youqiao swept the lunch box in his hand and raised the corners of his mouth.

Taking advantage of the confusion, Feng Youqiao ran to the center of the crowd, and saw Mu Hua and Mu Rusong shaking hands with the Japanese one by one. Except for the few people in military uniforms, everyone on the first stage was smiling, and "clicked" with a pair of scissors. , Li Cheng, Watanabe Mingchen looked at Mu Hua and smiled slightly, and the cannons were fired from both sides, and the sky was filled with paper colors.

At this moment, Feng Youqiao rushed to the front desk, opened the primer, and threw the lunch box precisely to the center of the stage, only to hear a burst of "snap" from the camera taking pictures and a loud "boom" sound, and the people on the stage responded Throwing down, the hall was immediately filled with gunpowder smoke, and the stage was covered with blood and flesh in the thick smoke.When the people heard the bombing, they screamed and became chaotic. The Japanese soldiers stationed outside the door rushed in with guns. Feng Youqiao saw that the Japanese were all blown up, so he snorted and felt relieved. Taking advantage of the confusion, he quickly followed the agreement escaped through the back door of the hotel.

When Mu Ke and Du Zihao arrived, the entire restaurant was surrounded by Japanese soldiers. The dignitaries, journalists and guests in the hall were surrounded, and the two looked at each other.

In the thick night, vehicles from the hospital stopped in front of the door, and after a while, several people or corpses were carried out on stretchers.Mu Ke was startled, frowned and looked at Du Zihao, "What's going on?"

The next day, in addition to the children selling newspapers running wildly on the street, there were also workers and students parading on the street. The anti-Japanese wave rose one wave after another. Watanabe Akitomi's death was like a catalyst that stirred people's hearts. , Patriotic enthusiasm is high.

In the middle of the street, there was a scholar-like young man in robes, raising his fists and shouting, surrounded by crowds.

"Compatriots, God bless China, the solemn celebration of cooperation that the invaders were looking forward to suddenly turned into a miserable hall of hell under the sound of a bang. This is actually a cannon that announces the decline of Japanese imperialism and a thunderbolt that punishes murder and arson The Chinese should unite as one, defend against foreign enemies, drive out the Tartars, and restore China!" The people on the stage said they were passionate and united with the enemy, and the audience also shouted, "Unite as one, defend against foreign enemies, drive out the Tartars, Restore me to China!"

People on the street talked with smiles. A middle-aged man said to the people around him, "Have you read the newspaper! Have you read the newspaper!" He tapped the newspaper with his index finger and said, "Look, look , a bento box flew onto the stage, the thunderbolt bombed, the heaven and the earth shook, and the power blew up the Japanese on the stage on the spot... The stage was bloody and bloody, and Colonel Watanabe Akitomi, who was standing in the center of the stage after inspection, broke down on the spot. His abdomen was killed, Osa Kitano Takeshi was hit by 204 large pieces of shrapnel, and countless small pieces of shrapnel, one of the Japanese standing beside him was blinded, and seven people were blown off their limbs and feet, incomplete..." He said with joy, as if he had witnessed Everything was destroyed, and it seemed that the Japanese were blown up by him.

Then came the news of the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party in the Xi'an Incident, and the whole of Shanghai was immersed in joy, but the Mu family suffered a catastrophe.

Although Feng Youqiao's bomb was thrown at the Japanese, it was extremely powerful. Mu Rusong was killed on the spot, leaving his whole body shattered. .Mu Hua passed out, was severely injured and is still unconscious. There are only women and children left at home, so the burden falls on Mu Ke.

The military department ordered the reorganization of the army, and Mu Ke hurried home after finishing his work.

Before Mu Ke left, he sent troops to protect the mansion, but the Japanese still broke in, and brutal fighting and massacres were taking place in the mansion.

The leading vicious target was Katogawa, and the housekeeper fell into a pool of blood in front of him.The Japanese broke into the house, ransacked boxes, smashed everything, burned, killed, and looted; the courtyard was also noisy and chaotic, and the servants were preparing to flee for their lives. The adjutant led the soldiers to fight with the Japanese soldiers, but they were outnumbered.

When Mu Rusong died, Mrs. Mu completely lost her heart. She turned a deaf ear to the chaos and just sat cross-legged in the Buddhist hall and chanted sutras.The aunt was even more insane, packing up the big and small bags of gold and silver, she knew that the Mu family had offended the Japanese, the old man was gone, and her son was still young, who would protect her if something happened?she wants to run.

Wan Xiang hid the two children, and asked his aunt and Mrs. Mu to hide them too, but one couldn't persuade her, and the other insisted on taking her son and fleeing.The two of them could not stop arguing and were exposed in front of the Japanese. Seeing the beauty of flowers, several Japanese rushed towards them with obscene smiles like tigers and wolves.

While battling the Japanese soldiers with bayonets, the adjutant yelled, "Protect Madam!"

At this time, a distinguished guest came to Mu's residence.

Su Shaojiu directly led troops to surround the people of Mu Mansion and Kato River.When the gun holes were all pointing at Katogawa, he looked at Su Shaojiu.

The Japanese also pointed their guns at Su Shaojiu.Su Shaojiu unhurriedly raised his hand to signal his subordinates to put down their guns, Katogawa looked at him suspiciously, Su Shaojiu took off his cloak, and only then did he clearly recognize that he was the warlord. It is the object he wants to win over.

Su Shaojiu looked at the word "Mu's House" on the door plaque, and said, "Mr. Consul is making such a big move just for a piece of mining contract. What's wrong with this family?"

Katogawa said sanctimoniously, "This family colluded with spies. On the surface, they used cooperation as an excuse to wait for an opportunity to assassinate an outstanding general of our empire. It is extremely insidious and must be eliminated."

Su Shaojiu snorted, leaned forward and looked at him and said, "Extremely sinister? Then they wouldn't be so stupid as to blow up their master?"

Katogawa retorted, "This is the genius of villains, so that they can cover up their real crimes."

Su Shaojiu laughed loudly, "Yes, a dog can't spit out ivory, so it has nothing to say to you."

Katogawa was a little angry, and played games with him with his eyes.Su Shaojiu said nonchalantly, "I don't care what you want to do. The Mu family and I still have some personal grievances to deal with. That is to say, I will take everyone away."

Su Shaojiu gave the order, and the soldiers followed Su Shaojiu into the Mu Mansion, only to hear the woman shouting, "Help! Help!"

Wan Xiang grabbed her clothes and struggled, the tearing of a group of beasts was suffocating.Su Shaojiu shot at a person's head, there was a bang, blood splashed on Wan Xiang's face, she screamed and trembled all over.The subordinates beside Su Shaojiu shouted, "Everyone stop!"

Stopping the chaos, Mu Ke's adjutant watched in astonishment as Su Shaojiu took away all the family members of the Mu family.

When Su Shaojiu returned to the White Mansion, Ruoyu had collapsed under the overwhelming news. He looked at Su Shaojiu beggingly with red eyes, and asked tremblingly, "Where's Mu Ke? How's it going? Where's mother? Where's sister-in-law? where?"

Su Shaojiu glanced at him coldly, "I've settled everything down. I don't know where Mu Ke is hiding. But it doesn't matter. As long as Mu Hua is willing to hand over the mining deed to me, I will protect you all." Your family is safe and secure. As for Mu Ke? You have given up on this, not to mention anything else, he is a regiment leader today, one charge and another, and tomorrow he will become a pile of bones."

Ruoyu was dizzy, and walked out step by step, "Stop talking, stop talking, I'm going to see them, to see them..."

Su Shaojiu grabbed his arm and pulled him back, "It's so difficult for you to stay by my side honestly! If you are still restless, I will hand them all over to the Japanese!"
