Chapter 219 The Civil War Begins



"Now that Guanghai has a problem, you should be quiet recently. Even if you want to settle your lifelong affairs, don't rush. Wait until this sensitive period is over."

Yang Bin also felt a headache.

"Brother Yang, rest assured. I said I won't hold you back. I will definitely do it."

Three days later, Yang Bin gathered everyone together with a gloomy face, and then said:

"We will leave Guanghai tomorrow and return to Pingbei City."

Everyone was a little surprised and looked at each other. Then the person in charge of the action team stood up and asked directly:

"Captain Yang, have we completed this mission?"

"We did what Guanghai asked us to do. The rest is not our responsibility. But I think they made a mistake."

"Just because the middleman was killed?"

"yes."

Yang Bin did not hide anything, and there was no need to do so.

"Did they find the murderer?"

Someone asked directly.

"They left their mark openly. It's the Blood Peony!"

Lian Yi deliberately opened her mouth wide and asked:

"Is it the mysterious intelligence broker from Pingbei City?"

"yes!"

"Why did she kill that John Lee?"

"Because John Lee gave her false information!"

"She's a little too arrogant!"

"But no one can catch her, and I suspect she is in Guanghai City now."

Yang Bin frowned and expressed his speculation.

"Then Captain Yang, let's go back to Pingbei City first!"

Ripple whispered.

"Humph! You guys in the Intelligence Department are just cowards!"

Said the hot-tempered team member.

"I am only following the captain's orders. Don't attack so many people. Since you are not afraid of death, you can apply to stay and help capture Blood Peony!"

Lianyi responded unceremoniously.

"you"

"Alright! It's not that I look down on you, but you are no match for that Blood Peony. Since this mysterious woman appeared, she has never failed, whether it's the information she wants or the person she wants to kill."

There was a flash of sarcasm in Yang Bin's eyes, which directly exposed the self-righteous faces of the action team.

"Of course, if you want to show your ability, you can apply to stay and assist your colleagues in Guanghai. I will definitely not stop you."

After hearing this, everyone in the action team shut up immediately. They were unfamiliar with the place and could easily be used as cannon fodder. So they decided to return to their own territory!

The next day, the group returned to Pingbei City by boat. When the boat entered the port, they found that it was closed. Large and small ships were parked at the port, unable to enter or leave. They did get ashore smoothly, but were also kept and questioned.

The members of the action team were so angry that they gritted their teeth. After patiently accepting the interrogation, they returned to the headquarters to report in the middle of the night.

Lianyi returned to the office and called Zheng Lin, telling him that she had returned safely to Pingbei City. She asked him to be careful and pay attention to safety when performing the task. Then she hung up the phone and waited for her section chief to answer her questions.

After Yang Bin came back, it was her turn. However, as an assistant, she knew nothing and just followed instructions. It only took her five minutes to explain what she was doing.

"I heard from Yang Bin that you have established a relationship with Zheng Lin, the action leader of Guanghai."

Wei Yi folded his arms and said with a smile.

"Chief, we are in an open relationship and are just getting to know each other. Also, this is a private matter. Do I need to report it?"

"No, just asking."

"Oh, it was Brother Yang who introduced us to each other. We chatted for a while and found that we had a lot to talk about, so we went on a date. Then something happened over there, and we were called back. We didn't even have the chance to meet a second time."

Lianyi curled her lips after saying this.

"I heard that something happened the day after your date."

"Yes, we had originally planned to meet for a second time, but it was completely aborted because of this incident."

"I see. You just came back. Rest for two days first."

Lianyi saluted and turned to leave the section chief's office.

After she walked out of the door, her eyes flickered. This Section Chief Wei was a little too concerned about her.

The next day, Lianyi learned from Yang Bin that the Kuomintang army in Pingbei City had lost a batch of arms and was under full martial law to search for the whereabouts of the arms. This was also the reason why they accepted travel expenses when they returned.

Lianyi was surprised after hearing what happened, but she knew very well in her heart that it was Lao Zhou and his men who had taken action, and the Kuomintang had come to nothing this time.

In June of the second year after Japan surrendered, the Kuomintang openly tore up the agreement with the underground party, officially launched a civil war, and began to hunt down and kill underground party members on a large scale. For a time, China was once again shrouded in the shadow of civil war.

At this time, Lianyi was assigned to the action support team, responsible for cooperating with them to find the underground party’s radio station, and her partner was Qianqian.

The two of them were the type who disliked each other. Lianyi felt that Qianqian had never participated in any major operations, but had created an identity for herself as a key member of the action team.

Qianqian felt that Lianyi, a teammate at the bottom of the team who was afraid of death and had no real skills, was a disgrace to the action team and should have been kicked out long ago.

"Has Captain Zheng Lin contacted you yet?"

Qianqian said deliberately.

"What does it have to do with you whether we contact each other or not?"

"You must have been dumped, but you're still pretending here."

"Tsk, it hasn't even started yet, why is he dumping me?"

Ripple said nonchalantly.

"You two, if you keep whining, get out of the car!"

In the end, it was the leader of the action team who spoke up, and the two stopped exposing each other's shortcomings.

"snort!"

Lianyi snorted lightly and turned her head away from Qianqian.

"Captain, we've found something! There are radio waves nearby."

A monitor said immediately.

At this time, everyone in the car shifted their gaze to the person who spoke, picked up their headphones and started listening.

Lianyi also picked up the headphones and after listening for a while, the corners of her mouth twitched. This was a public channel and the people sending the messages were underground party members. They were actually using this method to contact her and wanted to see her.

"Can you decipher the message?"

The operations captain asked immediately.

"It will take a while."

"What about the location?"

“It’s a bit difficult for now, but it should be within three kilometers of here.”

The inspector replied gritted his teeth.

But this area is full of downtown areas, so it would be very troublesome and unrealistic to find it, which means it is impossible to locate it.

"Decipher the contents of the telegram first."

"yes!"

Lianyi put down her headphones and sat aside as a wallflower, with no intention of helping at all.

I don’t know how long the underground party has been sending out the message, but she just received it now.

That night, she transformed into Mudan and went to the meeting place she had left, the hiding room left by Hu Qian, and then met an unexpected person.

The man opposite stared at Lian Yi's beautiful face, as well as her iconic black cheongsam with red peonies, and asked:

"You are the Blood Peony!"
