"No matter how great the credit, isn't it all thanks to your excellent leadership, Senior Brother?" Ning Zhiheng joked with a smile.
The two exchanged a smile, everything understood without a word.
Wei Liangbi was very satisfied with his junior brother. He was definitely capable, with excellent marksmanship and fighting skills.
What's rare is that he has a clear mind, meticulous thoughts, and now he also has excellent realistic painting skills. He can be described as both literate and martial. No wonder his teacher let him make a living as a secret agent. He really has a discerning eye!
More importantly, the two had a close relationship and were from the same school. Moreover, they got along well, and the two gifted the other a Longines watch, which was quite valuable.
It wasn't that he coveted the money, but it showed Ning Zhiheng's close attitude towards him.
Moreover, capable leaders all hope to have competent subordinates, because they have enough confidence in themselves to manage such subordinates, and Wei Liangbi was such a person.
Suddenly, he felt he had overlooked something and asked, "Zhiheng, are you confident about this operation?"
Ning Zhiheng secretly calculated that the only difficulty in this case was arresting Wang Yunfeng, but now that they had his sketch, the situation was much better. He believed that catching him was only a matter of time.
After the arrest, the rest is no longer a problem. With memory reading as a last resort, even if we encounter another die-hard, we will still gain something.
Moreover, he simply did not believe that all Japanese spies were fearless samurai; for a person to disregard life and death, one would need extremely strong willpower and devout faith.
Such people are extremely rare and highly sought after; they are incredibly few and far between in this world.
Therefore, the chances of winning this case are very high; the only difference is the amount of the final result.
"I can't guarantee a 100% success rate, but I have an 80% chance of winning!" Ning Zhiheng said confidently.
After listening, Wei Liangbi seemed to be deep in thought. He paced back and forth in his office a few times before finally making a decision.
"Then arrange for your action team to end their leave. You will have full authority to mobilize manpower. As for Liang Deyou, I will find a way to transfer him away. Otherwise, with him around, you will definitely be hampered and unable to carry out your work effectively."
Ning Zhiheng was taken aback. The idea of the action team participating in this case was also in his mind. After all, everyone should share the credit, and it would not benefit outsiders.
But he didn't expect that Wei Liangbi would simply sideline Liang Deyou, the captain. It seems there's something he doesn't know about this.
Seeing Ning Zhiheng's surprised look, Wei Liangbi said dismissively, "Don't be fooled by Liang Deyou's seemingly obedient demeanor now. He's not exactly a saint. When I first took over as the action team leader, he relied on his seniority and always disobeyed orders."
However, when it comes to scheming, he wasn't good enough, and he lacked any real power or background. After suffering a few hardships, he obediently settled down.
I'm not a petty person, and my original intention was to recruit him to my side. But perhaps I used too harsh methods at the time, which made him hesitant and always kept a distance from me.
Honestly, I've given him plenty of opportunities, and now I'm too lazy to bother anymore!
So I make sure to give him a little nudge from time to time, so he'll know what's good for him.
But this is a good opportunity, and we can't let him get involved. Once he has a chance to turn things around, it will be difficult to arrange things for him in the future.
Besides, if we keep him in the action team, you'll only be his deputy. If things succeed, he'll get at least half the credit. So, this time, even for your sake, we must transfer him away.”
After hearing these words, Ning Zhiheng suddenly realized that the grudge between Wei Liangbi and Liang Deyou had a long history.
However, this was definitely a good thing for him. Without Liang Deyou, as one of the deputy captains, he was fully authorized by team leader Wei Liangbi to command and deploy the entire action team.
Most importantly, in the end, most of the credit will go to him.
As for Shi Hong, he was Wei Liangbi's man and would never dare to disobey Wei Liangbi's orders or go against him.
In the end, giving him a share of the credit would be a fair deal.
"Senior brother has gone to great lengths for me. I will always remember this and will never let you down!" Ning Zhiheng said gratefully.
Whatever the reason, Wei Liangbi was genuinely looking out for himself, and he was grateful for that.
Wei Liangbi waved his hand and laughed, "Between brothers like us, there's no need for formalities. As for Liang Deyou, it just so happens that the Military Intelligence Bureau has expanded its recruitment this time, and has specially recruited a batch of students. The bureau has drawn personnel from various departments to train these students. The action team has always been short-staffed, and I was originally planning to decline. Now it seems to be a good opportunity to let Liang Deyou serve as an instructor for a period of time."
Ning Zhiheng found this strange. The Military Intelligence Bureau had always only recruited military academy students and soldiers, so why would it recruit students?
Historically, when the Military Intelligence Bureau's power expanded rapidly, it broke this rule, recruiting people without regard to background. Is it starting to do the same now?
"When did the Military Intelligence Department start recruiting students?" Ning Zhiheng asked in confusion.
“This is an exception; they are all female students. After all, there are many jobs in the intelligence system that women are more suited to than men. And most of them are assigned to the telecommunications department; I heard they will continue to recruit in the future,” Wei Liangbi explained.
Ning Zhiheng nodded, no longer dwelling on the matter.
This solved Liang Deyou's problem, and the method was aboveboard, so no one could say anything about it.
This means you should never offend your boss. Otherwise, they'll make things difficult for you in no time, and you won't have a chance to complain; you'll just have to accept it!
Wei Liangbi acted immediately, turning around to pick up the phone and informing the Third Action Team to end their leave and return to the team.
