Chapter 668 The Passing of Time 33
"Then you must have made a lot of money. Grain prices keep rising. If they keep rising like this, people will really starve to death."
That's true. Rickshaw pullers like them might not even earn enough for two pancakes after a whole day of hard work.
Ning Yan said, "The price of grain has gone up because the purchase price has increased, so middlemen like us are actually earning less."
"How is this possible?"
Ning Yan seriously lied, "Whether the price goes up or down, the money I earn per pound of grain is fixed. Before, everyone could afford grain, and I sold a thousand pounds a day. Now that everyone can't afford it, I sell a hundred pounds a day. You do the math yourself, don't you think I'm earning less?"
Driver: I may not be very bright, but you can't fool me!
He really is a traitor; not a single word of truth comes out of his mouth!
They soon arrived at the agreed-upon location. Ning Yan got out of the car, while the driver, cursing under his breath, pulled the car away.
After he left, Ning Yan found a secluded spot, stuck an invisibility talisman on herself, and she disappeared.
Ignoring the military police on guard, Ning Yan strode into the headquarters.
Coincidentally, they happened to run into two groups of people walking out. "Mr. Oda, how's your case going?"
Major Oda, seeing that the person asking the question was from the Special Service Section, smiled and replied, "The search is still ongoing throughout the city."
The man laughed and said, "Mr. Oda will surely succeed."
Ning Yan: ...What a load of rubbish! If she were an assassin, she would have run away long ago. If searching like this could find her, the people at Beiping Station wouldn't need to do any infiltration. Wouldn't it be better to just take a bomb and self-destruct like an attack?
He walked over, took out the bad luck charm, and stuck it on Xiaotian's back with a "smack".
At that moment, Major Oda was about to step out of the White Building's main gate, while the person who had spoken to him was clearly going up the steps.
As the two turned around, Major Oda lost his footing and fell down the two-step staircase with a thud, yelling "Ah!" and landing face-first in the dirt!
The two military police guards at the gate quickly helped him up, but damn it, they were on guard duty fully armed. Somehow, one of the kids' bayonets pierced Oda's buttocks with his bayonet as he crouched down, and the wound was visibly deep!
Xiao Tian was in so much pain that his eyes rolled back. "Baka! Baka yarou! Your sir sir sir!"
The Japanese soldier was so frightened by the insults that he quickly pulled out his bayonet, and blood gushed out immediately!
"Ah!" Major Oda screamed again, then his eyes rolled back and he fainted!
Chaos erupted in front of the White Building. Several people hurriedly carried Xiao Tian into the car, which sped off towards the hospital.
Meanwhile, Ning Yan was already searching for people room by room.
He Rui is a very stubborn person.
It's not that it's slow, but that it can shrink.
He is an expert on Chinese culture, speaks Mandarin more fluently than native Chinese speakers, loves Chinese cuisine, is well-versed in various Chinese historical books, and is most skilled at employing people.
Discover the potential of each subordinate, and delegate any ideas you have to the appropriate subordinates to implement.
He himself rarely left the headquarters, and even when he slept with women, he would ask his secretary or someone else to do so.
After hearing Qiu Juncheng's evaluation of He Rui, Ning Yan came to the conclusion that He Rui was very afraid of death!
She quickly found He Rui's office.
This old man really knows how to enjoy life.
The office was decorated in a very elegant style, with a tea table, bookshelves, wine rack, and a beautiful sofa. His hobbies were really not typical of the Japanese.
At this moment, the man was leaning back in his chair, humming a little tune, holding a purple clay teapot in his hand, and sipping his tea.
Ning Yan stood outside the door for a while, and finally someone came in with documents for He Rui to sign. She quickly followed him in, and while He Rui was signing, she walked behind him and slapped a listening talisman on his back. The talisman quickly disappeared into He Rui's body.
He Rui seemed to sense something and looked behind him warily, but there was no one there.
"What's wrong, Colonel?"
He Rui looked away and casually replied, "It's nothing."
Ning Yan quickly finished writing and handed the document to the person who came in. The person took the document and walked out, and Ning Yan followed the person out of the office.
Meanwhile, Qiu Juncheng, who was enjoying a quiet time at the bureau, felt that he heard two different voices.
The sound of a door closing, footsteps, and He Rui drinking tea...
He sat up straight with a start. Good heavens, the lady is really something. She made a trip to the military police headquarters so quickly. After that, he can get any intelligence he wants.
He thought his wife had gone home after putting up the talisman, but that wasn't the case.
As Ning Yan came downstairs, she heard a dog barking as she passed the stairwell on the first floor. Unable to resist her curiosity, she went inside to take a look.
But when she saw the scene inside, she thought she was witnessing hell on earth!
This is the Japanese dungeon and interrogation room. In the interrogation room, several Japanese soldiers are leading several large wolfhounds. In front of them are several prisoners with their hands and feet bound. Behind the prisoners are several large pots of steaming water that is boiling vigorously.
Several large wolfhounds lunged at the prisoner, who could only dodge backward, but behind him was a large pot of steaming hot water.
You'll either get bitten to death by a dog or fall into a pot and be cooked.
The dog was still barking, the Japanese soldiers were laughing arrogantly, and only the prisoners were crying out in despair.
Ning Yan was filled with rage. She quickly walked over and stabbed the Japanese soldiers with her dagger. The knife only cut their flesh, not killing them, but blood would quickly spurt out.
The Japanese soldiers were terrified by the sudden appearance of wounds on their bodies, crying and cursing. They didn't notice that the wolfhounds they were leading had been momentarily distracted, and the smell of blood quickly spread around them. Then the wolfhounds turned around and bit the Japanese soldiers.
Animals are animals, especially those that have eaten human flesh. They don't care who their master is. They will bite anyone who has meat, especially since they have been starved for several meals. They are extremely fierce when they bite people.
Liu Shulan had just been forced by the dog to be less than 20 centimeters away from the large iron pot behind her, and she could feel the burning sensation on her entire back.
She thought she was going to be half-killed by these wolves today, but to her surprise, the Japanese soldier in front of her had several wounds. She had only one thought in her mind and blurted out, "A ghost!"
The other people being interrogated also had the same thought, but thank goodness this ghost came out, saving their lives!
The Japanese soldiers who came to interrogate the prisoners understood Chinese; when they heard the word "ghost," the first thing they thought of was "phantom"!
"Baka, it's a ghost!"
But it's useless!
They had already taken up their weapons to fight the wolfhounds, but with their abdomens already injured and blood loss, their strength was no match for these starving wolfhounds. Before long, one of the Japanese soldiers was bitten on the shoulder by a wolfhound, and a large chunk of flesh was torn off.
