Chapter 677 The Passing of Time 42
Qiu Juncheng was amused by his wife's way of speaking. "Stuck?"
"No, it's that Madam Li's peach blossoms are blooming one after another... Section Chief Li has been cheated on time and time again."
Qiu Juncheng: ...
"I've only heard that this Section Chief Li is quite scheming. If his wife really has been cheating on him time and time again, surely he wouldn't have been able to find out?"
Ning Yan thought to herself, "That makes sense. Some men just like to treat their women as resources, but what they say is, 'I don't know about that.'"
"I heard you had a lot of good luck with your lottery today?"
"As long as I play this, my luck will never be bad."
Qiu Juncheng turned his head to look at the little woman beside him, a smile appearing on his lips. His confident wife looked even more beautiful.
Back home, the couple had dinner and then went to their room. Ning Yan wrote and drew, finally completing the design drawings for the machine gun.
This was the second drawing she had given to Qiu Juncheng.
After the first set of drawings was delivered to their hometown, Qiu Juncheng received a secret letter praising him and his wife.
Yes, for the Ghost's safety, after the White Building incident, the Ghost had a separate storyline.
She doesn't need to meet with anyone. She just needs to check the death mailbox regularly. The organization will put any tasks there, and she can also write letters in code and put them in the death mailbox if she needs anything.
If the organization has an urgent matter to entrust to her, it will notify Qiu Juncheng, so she is essentially double-insured.
She successfully rescued people from the White Building incident, produced a weapon diagram, and handled the Ma Wenqi incident. Any one of these actions alone would be a major achievement, so it's no wonder the organization values her so highly.
"I will send the blueprints back as soon as possible. You don't know that the weapons our soldiers use are far inferior to those of the Japanese. As soon as the two sides clash, the other side can suppress our firepower and our men will be beaten so badly that they can't even lift their heads."
We didn't have good weapons, and we were reluctant to waste bullets. Some soldiers, in order to get a better gun, would fight to the death against the Japanese; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they treated their guns as their lives.
Ning Yan patted his hand to comfort him: "Don't worry, everything will be alright. When I have the chance, I'll go to the Japanese barracks again and then transport it back to my hometown through Chen Chun."
Chen Chun was a company commander in the 29th Army. After the Japanese invaded Beiping, he secretly joined the Communist Party.
Because he was from old Beiping, his superiors arranged for him to go undercover in Beiping.
Ning Yan happened to be hiring, and he thought that having a legitimate way to make money would be beneficial for his undercover work. Moreover, the boss was a businessman, which made him even more interested.
He never expected his boss to trust him so much, entrusting him with such a large warehouse. He was overjoyed, like a mouse falling into a rice jar.
Every day, all I thought about was how to safely deliver those supplies to the organization and then transport them back to the base.
Ning Yan was happy to watch him busy himself, but she didn't point it out. She found it quite amusing to see him looking all scheming and looking all mischievous when he asked for supplies.
"After what happened at the White Building last time, the Japanese were terrified and have been behaving themselves lately. The guards at the city gates who were searching for people no longer dare to take advantage of the common people."
"Once this period passes and the deterrent effect diminishes, you can give them a big blow, and that will ensure peace in Beiping for a while longer!" Ning Yan pinched his cheek. "You're so calculating. Fine, I'll listen to you."
The couple had planned everything perfectly, but little did they know that they were about to face a major problem.
...
Military Police Headquarters.
Kawasaki Itō's office.
"Kawasaki-kun, I still suspect that Qiu Juncheng is a spy. The Army Hospital case was clearly the work of Ghost."
But I later learned from Luo Sang that Qiu Juncheng had handled that case.
He guided Luo Sang to pin the blame on Guan Sanqing.
This is the biggest suspicious point about him, and I request a thorough investigation.
Kawasaki: "..." Didn't he know that Guan Sanqing was behind the incident at the army hospital? Even the deceased commander knew.
But at that time, there was a need for someone to close the case, and he was very glad that Qiu Sang had stepped forward as a shield, otherwise if they had dared to investigate the ghost, they might have been dead long ago.
And where did Oda get the audacity to investigate people at this time?
He remembered it very clearly. The day he was injured and sent to the hospital was the same day the ghost broke into the dungeon and left the message. Everyone said it was an accidental injury, but for the ghost, causing an accidental injury was too easy.
"Luo Sang, is that what you think too?"
Luo Siyuan: What the hell is he thinking!
He now regrets his drunken slip of the tongue, which allowed Xiaotian to trick him into revealing information.
He and Qiu Juncheng are in cahoots, including Kawasaki.
His black market business brought him a large sum of money every month.
The three of them are a community of shared interests. If they really cause problems for Juncheng, what will happen to their business in the future?
He has no business acumen!
“How could Juncheng be a spy? He became the head of a district bureau at such a young age because he had made several great contributions before. He personally captured Lieying from the Beiping Military Intelligence Station the year before last!”
Last year, he even personally killed the assassin who tried to kill Commander Cheng.
He even personally arrested several underground party members, and he was more ruthless with torture than I was. You're saying he's a spy? Is that even possible?
Lie Ying was the leader of the Kuomintang's Beiping Station action group. He was exceptionally capable, but he was betrayed and exposed, and was personally arrested by Qiu Juncheng and his men.
But the truth is that when Lieying got into trouble, he contacted Station Chief Mao of Beiping Station, and everyone at Beiping Station immediately evacuated. Lieying spent three days confessing everything, but that information was already useless.
Qiu Juncheng then led his men to carry out the execution himself, ultimately replacing the executioner with a corpse.
Lieying is still alive and well in Chongqing.
As for the assassin who killed Commander Cheng, Commander Cheng was the former commander of the Kuomintang's 23rd Army. He surrendered to the Japanese not long after the fall of Beiping and was a complete traitor!
The assassin who tried to kill him was sent by the Beiping Station. He was captured while on a mission and later made a private deal with Commander Cheng. In return, Commander Cheng let him go because the assassin worked for the Japanese.
The astute Qiu Juncheng discovered this and devised a second assassination attempt.
They then tricked the assassin into saying in front of Commander Cheng that the previous Kuomintang assassins' betrayal was all a scheme. Enraged, the half-dead Commander Cheng ordered the previous assassins to be killed.
Qiu Juncheng showed no mercy, personally leading his men to capture the traitor and killing him.
There was also the arrest of Red Party members—the Japanese gave the order, so he had to do it, but how difficult was it to arrange a few scapegoats?
There are too many people in Beiping who have done all sorts of bad things but pretend to be decent human beings on the surface, like Guan Sanqing. You can beat them up and they'll say whatever they want, and you can tell them which party they belong to.
However, he was clever and handled the case perfectly, leaving no trace of wrongdoing, so no one has suspected him so far.
