Ning Zhiheng returned to his office, changed into civilian clothes, and then left the Military Intelligence Investigation Department.
Now that the Japanese arrest team has been completely captured, Ning Zhiheng is temporarily safe in Nanjing. Therefore, he still prefers to go out alone, as it is much more convenient for him.
Since Japanese spies were able to find Ning Zhiheng's current residence, it means that it is no longer safe. There is a safe in the house containing very important items, so he must change his residence.
In fact, the Military Intelligence Investigation Department is equipped with single dormitories for officers. Given Ning Zhiheng's rank, he could ask for one without any problem.
However, he didn't want to live in the Military Intelligence Investigation Department because it would be very inconvenient to do things in certain special circumstances, such as contacting the farmer late at night, secretly exchanging information with the Zuo siblings to arrange tasks, and not to mention, it would be inconvenient to collect money himself!
Ning Zhiheng inquired around the neighborhood and quickly found another place to live. It was a detached house with a large and clean courtyard. However, the landlord asked for a lot of rent. Ning Zhiheng thought the location was also suitable, even closer to the Military Intelligence Investigation Department than his previous residence, making it convenient for commuting to and from get off work. So he readily agreed.
The landlord was a capable man; he kept the house very clean and fully furnished. Ning Zhiheng returned to his original residence, canceled the lease, and did some simple tidying up. He mainly moved the hidden safe behind the desk to the new place, changing all the locks. Finally, he got the matter settled and went to the Zuo siblings' house to give them the new address.
When Zuo Gang learned that Ning Zhiheng had suddenly changed his residence, he asked, "Young Master, are those people who were asking about you the other day planning to harm you? I think my brother and I will follow you and protect you from now on; it will be much safer that way."
Ning Zhiheng thought for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "No need, things haven't gotten that serious yet. The people who were trying to find out about me a couple of days ago have all been caught. They were Japanese, a total of eight Japanese spies!"
“Japanese spies? Young master, we know you’re dealing with matters of national importance, but we’re not lenient when it comes to dealing with the Japanese.” Zuo Qiang, who was standing to the side, immediately spoke up after hearing Ning Zhiheng’s words.
The main reason they were willing to follow Ning Zhiheng was naturally because Ning Zhiheng held a high position and wielded great power, serving as a reliable support for the three siblings in this chaotic world. Another reason was that in their eyes, Ning Zhiheng represented the national power structure and followed the righteous path, unlike Dai Daguang who was involved in the underworld. In their minds, they felt more at ease and secure following Ning Zhiheng.
Ning Zhiheng nodded with a smile. The Zuo siblings hadn't been willing to stay in the underworld before, but now that they were with Ning Zhiheng, they had reformed and done a lot for him, becoming his capable assistants.
After exchanging a few words, Ning Zhiheng and the Zuo brothers turned and left, returning to the Military Intelligence Investigation Department.
He picked up the phone and called Sun Jiacheng, asking him to bring Tan Jinhui over.
Sun Jiacheng quickly took Tan Jinhui to Ning Zhiheng's office.
Looking at Tan Jinhui, whose shoulder was in a sling, Ning Zhiheng asked, "How is your injury?"
Tan Jinhui quickly stepped forward, bowed, and replied, "The military doctor said there was no bone damage, and as long as I rest for a while, there will be no problem."
Ning Zhiheng nodded and said in a gentle tone, "Tan Jinhui, you did a good job this time. You successfully lured the Japanese out. I keep my word. From today onwards, your case is closed, and you are now free."
Hearing Ning Zhiheng's promise, Tan Jinhui, who had been feeling uneasy, finally felt a huge weight lifted off his shoulders. Tears welled up in his eyes, but he held them back.
He bowed respectfully to Ning Zhiheng, and said with a choked voice, "Thank you so much, team leader! Thank you so much, team leader! I will definitely repay your life-saving kindness in the future!"
Ning Zhiheng stood up, slowly walked to Tan Jinhui, and asked again, "Tan Jinhui, you've been involved in such a big case, and you've lost your job at the city hall. I'd like you to join the Military Intelligence Investigation Department and work under me. What do you think?"
Ning Zhiheng was incredibly lucky this time, finding such a good double. He would definitely be useful in the future. Putting aside everything else, using him to fool the Japanese would add an extra layer of insurance for his own safety. Of course, it was very unfair to Tan Jinhui to be someone else's scapegoat, but Ning Zhiheng didn't care. Tan Jinhui's life was already a capital offense, and it was already generous of him to give him a way out, so why should he refuse?
Tan Jinhui remained silent for a long time after hearing Ning Zhiheng's words. His worst fears had come true. Tan Jinhui was not a fool; on the contrary, he was very clever.
What's the point of staying in the Military Intelligence Investigation Department? He has no special skills, only this face that looks exactly like Team Leader Ning's. Needless to say, he'll continue to be Team Leader Ning's double.
But he was also aware of the dangers involved. Last night, he hid in a corner and watched bullets fly everywhere, blood splattering from the corpses on the ground. All the items in the house were scattered and destroyed. He was also shot. If he hadn't been lucky, he wouldn't be standing here talking now.
He was lucky this time and escaped, but will he be so lucky next time? Tan Jinhui was unwilling from the bottom of his heart, but if he didn't agree, he was afraid that Team Leader Ning would turn ruthless and send him back to death row. What would he do then?
Tan Jinhui's face was deathly pale, and his lips trembled as he did not answer, but his expression said it all.
