This is the story of a modern sailor who accidentally becomes a soldier in the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, and, by relying on his foresight, eventually becomes the head of the largest financial ...
Soon, Miss Cai figured out the logic. The purpose of this group of people was very clear, they wanted the dirty laundry of Osborn and his superiors, and as long as Osborn could tell them, they could get away with it.
If Osborn was unwilling to tell the other party, then the mother and daughter would definitely die. At this time, how to make Osborn tell what he knew became the key to whether they could survive.
Would Osborn tell her the secret he knew? He was not sure about that.
After all, he was just Osborne's lover, not his wife. His wife was far away in Portugal!
Thinking of this, Miss Cai's heart sank, and she realized that she was in danger. She might lose her life for something that had nothing to do with her. At this time, she cursed in her heart.
But it was of no avail. The people in front of her would definitely not listen to her explanation. The only thing she could do now was to find a way to make Osborn tell her the secret he knew.
So what should he do to make Osborne obey him? Soon, he thought of a way.
"If you threaten Osborn with our lives, he may not surrender easily. But I have a way to make him surrender."
Hearing this, Yao Mu couldn't help but be stunned. What do you mean, you woman, you are too fickle! However, the other party's words aroused his interest.
...
...
"Oh! What's the solution? Tell me about it."
Unexpectedly, Miss Cai, who thought she had taken the initiative at this time, actually started to negotiate conditions.
"If you want me to tell you this method, you must give me some money. I don't want much, just one tenth of your harvest this time, what do you think?"
This time, Yao Mu was really amused by this stupid woman and couldn't help laughing:
"Haha... You really are a woman who values money over life! What makes you think that our action this time is for the money?"
Ms. Cai said with an expression that showed she saw through everything:
"You've already said that they offended a big shot who they shouldn't have offended. I don't believe that a big shot would not pay you if he hired you to do work for him."
"Haha... Miss Cai, I remember introducing myself when I came in! I am a police officer from Hong Kong. When have you ever seen a police officer carrying out a mission for a big shot and getting paid for it?"
Yao Mu looked at this confusing woman with an amused expression. At this moment, he really felt that this woman was a psychopath.
Unexpectedly, Miss Cai smiled with disdain.
"You are the kind of people who dare to call yourself a police officer. Look at how you look like a police officer."
Hearing this, Yao Mu and the surrounding police officers looked at each other in bewilderment. What do you mean, why don't we look like police officers? Have you never seen a real police officer?
Yao Mu was now completely speechless with this woman. He didn't want to waste time talking to her at all. He said directly to the police officer behind him:
"Since Miss Cai doesn't believe we are the police, let's show her some of our best skills. Pry her mouth open for me. I want to know what method he said that would make Lieutenant Osborne surrender obediently."
The two police officers behind him heard this, chuckled, and said in unison:
"Yes, sir!"
After saying that, he walked forward and dragged Miss Cai to the room next to the living room. These were obviously beyond Miss Cai's expectations. She didn't expect that the other party would not give her a chance to negotiate.
Miss Cai's mother, who was standing by, also started to whimper and struggle. Seeing this, the police officer who had been controlling her pulled the hammer of the revolver back. Although Miss Cai's mother didn't know what this meant, she understood what the other party meant.
She could only give up struggling and looked at Yao Mu with fear in her eyes and a hint of pleading. However, Yao Mu had no interest in this old woman at all. He still looked at Miss Cai who had been covered with her mouth and dragged away with great interest.
At this moment, the previous disdain on Miss Cai's face was no longer there, and her eyes were full of panic and fear. If her mouth had not been covered, she would have begged for mercy loudly at this moment, but in the current environment, the police officers did not want Miss Cai to make any unnecessary sounds.
So, they covered her mouth directly. No matter how Miss Cai struggled, she could not escape the fate of being dragged into the room.
Soon, suppressed cries of pain were heard in the room. Even Miss Cai's mother, who was confined in the living room, couldn't help but tremble when she heard the sound coming from the inner room. She felt a heat under her legs and a stream of heat directly soaked the sofa.
Yao Muke was in no mood to care about the old woman's condition. He slowly stood up, hid behind the wall, and looked out through the window, trying to see whether Lieutenant Oscar would go home now.
But after observing for a while, they saw that although pedestrians had gradually appeared on the street, there were no foreign soldiers. Obviously, Lieutenant Osborne had not returned home yet.
After a while, two police officers dragged the limp Miss Cai out of the room. From the outside, Miss Cai did not seem to be hurt, but from her sweating, her red and swollen fingers, and her hands shaking uncontrollably, it can be seen that the police officers were merciful this time and only attacked her fingers.
As Miss Cai was thrown back onto the sofa, Miss Cai's mother looked at her daughter's miserable appearance and couldn't help but burst into tears, making a whimpering sound from her mouth.
Looking at Miss Cai who was biting a piece of rag from nowhere, Yao Mu looked at her with a half-smile and said:
"Ms. Cai, how do you feel? Can my brothers' skills be used as police officers?"
At this moment, Miss Cai was completely limp, as if she had been fished out of the water. After hearing what Yao Mu said, she couldn't help but let out a whimper.
In fact, the police officers did not tie her hands at this time. She could reach out and pull the rag out of her mouth as long as she wanted. But she just lay on the sofa with her hands slumped on both sides, not daring to pull the rag out of her mouth by herself.
After a long while, Yao Mu saw that the other party's face was full of tears and the painful groans gradually subsided, so he signaled to the police officer next to him.
Seeing this, the police officer stepped forward and pulled the rag out of the man's mouth. Looking at the police officer's hand holding the gun handle, Ms. Cai wisely chose not to make any sound.
Seeing this, Yao Mu continued to speak slowly:
"Ms. Cai, now can we talk about how to get Lieutenant Osborn to talk?"
Miss Cai nodded immediately after hearing this, and after swallowing her saliva, she spoke with some difficulty:
"On the wall of the first room on the right hand side of the third floor, there is a painting. Behind the painting is an account book. That is the account book for their arms trafficking. With this account book, we can definitely make him confess everything."
Yao Mu's eyes lit up when he heard this. He didn't expect to have such a big harvest before meeting the real owner. He quickly winked at the police officer beside him.
The police officer nodded in understanding and walked quickly upstairs.
"They are selling arms. Who are they specifically?"
"have no idea."
Miss Cai spoke without any hesitation. But as soon as she finished speaking, she noticed that Yao Mu's eyes changed and he immediately realized something. She waved her hands and said:
"I really don't know! He never tells me about work. I discovered this account book by accident."
"Since you discovered it by accident, how did you know that this was their arms sales account book?"
"After I found this account book, when I gave it to him, he beat me up. Later, when he found out that I found it by accident, he tried to cheer me up and told me that this was the account book where he earned money."
At this moment, the police officer who had just gone upstairs walked down quickly with a notebook with a dark brown cover, and handed the account book to Yao Mu with both hands.
Yao Mu took it casually, opened it and took a look. He didn't recognize the Portuguese on it, but some of the numbers were very eye-catching, so he started to think about it.
At present, it seems that this account book should be true.
"Is this the book?"
"Yes, it is this book. Please, let us go! You have already got what you wanted."
Hearing Miss Cai's plea for mercy, Yao Mu remained unmoved. He closed his notebook and said:
“Do you know Portuguese?”
“No.”
He had originally thought of asking this woman to translate the contents of the account book, but now that the other party did not know Portuguese he had to give up.
He winked at the police officer behind the woman and said:
"Tie them up and lock them in the room. Don't let them make any noise. Let's wait for Lieutenant Osborne to come back."
"Yes, sir!"
Upon receiving the order, several police officers stepped forward, tied up the two women's hands and feet, and stuffed cloth into their mouths to prevent them from making any sound. Then, they dragged the two women into a room inside.
At the same time, a Portuguese military jeep drove over from a distance, braked suddenly and stopped at the door of the tenement building. A middle-aged white man with black hair, about 1.7 meters tall, jumped out from the driver's seat.
He staggered to the side door and banged on it as if no one was around, cursing and shouting:
"Open the door, open the door, I'm back!"
Before he could knock for the second time, the door opened from the inside with a click. He was stunned and couldn't react. Why did the door open so quickly today?
There was a strong force behind him that pushed him into the door, and the pistol hanging on his waist was also taken away by the person behind him.
A deep voice came to my ear.
"Go in, don't try to act fancy, I'll beat you to death if you move!"
Feeling the cold and hard touch from behind, Osborn realized that he was being held at gunpoint. He raised his hands reflexively and said:
"Brother, don't mess around. Let's talk it over. I'm just an ordinary officer and I don't have much money."
Apparently, he thought he was being robbed.
At this moment, he unexpectedly found that the person who opened the door for him was also a strange man, and at this moment, this strange man was holding a revolver in his hand.
This made him break out in cold sweats. He knew he was in trouble. The other party might not just be robbing him, but was specifically targeting him.
"Be honest and move forward."
The person behind him obviously didn't want to waste time talking to him, so he pointed a gun at his waist and signaled him to move forward obediently.
He also understood that he had no other choice but to follow the other party's instructions, raise his hands, and slowly walk upstairs.
When he reached the door of the living room on the second floor, he saw that there were five or six gunmen in the living room, all staring at him hungrily, which made his scalp tighten.
Looking at the only old man sitting on the sofa in his house, he couldn't help but take the initiative to test:
"Old man, is there any misunderstanding between us? Are you seeking money or something else? I am just an ordinary Portuguese officer. I should not have offended you!"
Seeing this guy's nervous face, Yao Mu couldn't help but smile slightly, and pointed to the sofa opposite him and said:
"Good morning, Lieutenant Osborne! I apologize for the intrusion!
Please take a seat, let's sit down and talk slowly!"
Looking at this old man sitting in his own living room and unceremoniously asking his host to sit down, Osborne cursed in his heart, but the group of gunmen around him did not allow him to express any dissatisfaction.
But maybe it was because of the foreigner's sense of superiority, after looking at the gunmen around him, he shrugged his shoulders and simply put his hands down.
"Old man, your behavior is very dangerous! Leave before I get angry. There's still time."
Osborne's words did not surprise Yao Mu. At that time, foreigners had a natural sense of superiority when they saw Chinese people. He had already experienced this deeply when he was in Hong Kong Island, so he had anticipated Osborne's current performance.
"Haha...Mr. Osborne, I think you haven't figured out the situation yet. Since I dare to break into your house, it means that your identity as a Portuguese officer has no deterrent effect on me.
If you want to leave here alive, please respect me enough, otherwise, the price you have to pay may not just be your own life. "
Having said that, he very naturally picked up the account book from the sofa where he was sitting and began to flip through it casually.
Osborne was a little surprised when he heard the other party directly point out his identity as an officer. After seeing the account book in Yao Mu's hand, his eyes froze and his pupils shrank sharply. He knew that he was in big trouble.
"Who are you and what do you want to do?"
Yao Mu, who was sitting on the sofa, pointed a finger at a page in the account book and slid it from top to bottom, making a sound of amazement, as if there was something amazing in it.
This made Osborne's face look even uglier. He didn't know that Yao Mu didn't know Portuguese, and he thought that the other party had completely grasped the evidence of his guilt. This made his breathing rapid and his eyes red. He wanted to rush up and snatch the account book.
But the gunman beside him made him understand that he should not be impulsive at this time. He could only take a few deep breaths in succession and try to stay calm, trying to see what these people in front of him wanted to do.
Yao Mu noticed that he seemed to have controlled his emotions, so he slowly pointed to the position opposite him and said:
"Lieutenant Osborn, can we sit down and talk now?"
Seeing this, Osborne could only take another deep breath and slowly walk to the sofa opposite and sit down.
"Who are you? Have I offended you in any way?"
Hearing this, Yao Mu smiled slightly, shook his head and said:
"No, you haven't offended us. On the contrary, we came to you this time because we have a great fortune that we want to give to you."
