Chapter 126 Republican Era Spies Need to Save Themselves (Part 11)

Yu Ling followed behind Luo Qi, watching him vent his anger on this underground party member, and then go to interrogate another captured underground party member. After working for a long time, he actually found out quite a few problems.

Shortly after, the police officers reported that the roster was not lost... what was lost was the guard's seal.

This is even more troublesome than that roster.

To prevent further damage, Roach simply transferred all the underground party members to the higher authorities for imprisonment and focused his efforts on recovering the seals.

Of course, even without Yu Ling's reminder, Luo Qi knew that there must be traitors within his own ranks, otherwise the underground party wouldn't have been able to take advantage of him so easily.

Yu Ling's suggestion was to send all the suspects out to arrest the person, and whoever secretly released the person would be the corrupt official.

Furious, Roach adopted the suggestion and implemented it decisively.

Although the underground party was a huge organization, most of its lower-level members were ordinary people who did not know each other and communicated through coded notes. Moreover, the members were highly mobile.

Generally, look for elderly people without fixed stalls on the street. If they see a police officer and run away, that's probably the culprit. You can catch them every time.

This is the method the original owner most often used to identify.

However, that's not entirely true. Most of the people are still innocent ordinary citizens, but given the current situation, even if Roach arrests a few more people by mistake, he will absolutely not let any suspect go.

Luo Qi led a large number of police officers to search for the underground party member who stole the seal. Yu Ling was unable to help with the rest and was sent back to Jiang Zhicheng's place by Luo Qi in a rickshaw.

Rickshaws pulled by human hands shuttled through the streets and alleys, and the surrounding vendors and shops were still bustling with activity. No matter how much undercurrents were swirling in the upper echelons, people still had to make a living.

The muscular young man parked the car, wiped his forehead with the towel around his neck, and bowed to Yu Ling, saying:

"Sir, we've arrived."

Yu Ling casually tossed two silver dollars over, muttering to herself, "I always feel like I'm a tool. I call them over when I need them, and send them back when I'm done. And the worst part is, they won't even reimburse me for the transportation!"

[Host, isn't this your reason for joining Jiang Zhicheng? Otherwise, why would he protect you?]

The system makes a lot of sense.

But Yu Ling wouldn't listen.

Yu Ling, who was currently frustrated by her inability to escape the dangerous vortex, naturally did not notice that the young man pulling the rickshaw was not like the usual laborers with dark complexions, and the way he looked at her was also unusual...

Just when Yu Ling thought the farce would soon subside and he would continue to half-heartedly mingle around Jiang Zhicheng, something unexpected happened.

Surprisingly, a middle-aged woman who sells vegetables confessed after being arrested that someone had recently paid her to help deliver something, which was suspected to be to the escaped underground party member.

Following this lead, Luo Qi found a large list of people involved, and those who had escaped from the party riot were also caught, including but not limited to a certain Ms. Ye.

"This is the approval from above! All irrelevant personnel, get out of the way! Everyone, come with me to get the person!"

Dressed in the black uniform of a security captain, Luo Qi held a loaded gun and fired several bullets into the air before forcibly breaking into the Ye family's gate.

"yes!"

Such a grand commotion quickly alerted Master Ye. Ye Qingshan, still in relatively good health and sporting a beard, looked at the uninvited guests with a wary expression and said:

"Hey, Captain Luo, what are you doing? Our Ye family always obeys the law and has never done anything to harm anyone!"

“This has nothing to do with the Ye family. Why don’t you bring Miss Ye Linglong out?” Luo Qi said the last part to the police officers behind him.

Upon hearing that his precious daughter was to be harmed, Mr. Ye was immediately filled with fear and unease, repeatedly apologizing, "Captain Luo, what are you doing? My daughter is still young and doesn't understand things. If she has done anything wrong, please tell me!"

Blocking Mr. Ye's men from arresting the person, Luo Qi remained expressionless and said in a calm voice, "I'm just doing my job. Miss Ye is suspected of participating in the underground party's conspiracy, and the witness is still in jail."

As they were talking, several police officers brought the struggling Ye Linglong into the courtyard. Luo Qi, not wanting to cause any more trouble, told Mr. Ye that he would release Miss Ye after investigating the facts, and then returned to the police station.

"Luo Qi! Don't think I don't know your dirty thoughts. Even if I'm looking for that spy gigolo, I won't submit to you, you bastard!" Ye Linglong was furious and didn't know what had happened. She just thought that this guy who always fawned over her had caused some trouble again.

Luo Qi ultimately couldn't bring himself to take her to the interrogation room for severe torture. Instead, he detained the irritable Ye Linglong in the interrogation room and placed statements that were unfavorable to her testimony on the table for her to look at.

"Linglong, tell me honestly, did you do it? That day you, Zhao Zhongkai, and Chen Yuwen were lying... was it because of this?" Luo Qi did have some feelings for this beautiful young lady, so his first reaction upon hearing this news was not anger, but rather a hint of smugness.

"I didn't! I didn't! Just because others say something doesn't mean it. What proof do you have?"

Ye Linglong was, after all, a pampered young lady, always well-protected, and had never experienced anything like this before. But as a formal member trained by the underground party, she forced herself to remain calm and said...

"Whatever, shut it down if you want. I want to see what you're up to."

Ye Linglong's performance was commendable, but that only fooled those below her. For Luo Qi, who frequently observed her from above, it wasn't so easy.

In fact, if Ye Linglong had continued to act unreasonably as before, Luo Qi might have believed her. But now that she was so serious, he could only tell that she was talking nonsense.

"If you had confessed to me as soon as possible and told me everything you know, I might have been able to find a way to protect you. Linglong, this matter is not as simple as you think."

Luo Qi began to earnestly advise him again. Although he was fond of Ye Linglong, the pressure from above was too great. If he didn't retrieve the seal, losing his job would be a minor matter; if he were to be held accountable and punished, that would be no laughing matter.

"I already said, no means no!" Ye Linglong gritted her teeth and refused to budge.

soon……

The news of the eldest daughter of the Ye family being arrested made the newspaper.

The first thing Nan Miaoyin did after receiving the news was to go to Jiang Zhicheng's residence to find Yuling.

Although she knew in her heart that a selfish person like Zhao Zhongkai was not the kind of person who would do anything foolish for a woman...
