Fu Chengyu raised his hand and Cheng Yang handed him a flashlight.
I opened it and looked inside. It was empty, about two or three meters to the bottom. There must be a secret passage inside.
Fu Chengyu took off the straw hat on his head and threw it down, making a slight sound, "Pah!"
We must end this quickly and decisively before the people inside notice.
Fu Chengyu said to Li Jiyue, "Wife, you and another female comrade guard the entrance. I will lead the others down."
"Okay, then you guys be careful." Li Jiyue also wanted to go down to broaden her horizons, but there was danger down there.
He didn't let her go down because he was worried that something might happen to her and it would distract him from her.
She should stay upstairs and wait.
It’s not too late to go down after the enemy spies are under control.
"Don't worry, I haven't married you yet. I will never let anything happen to myself. I'm going down." Fu Chengyu held the edge of the stone wall with one hand and held the gun with the other. When he landed, his legs were slightly bent and he made almost no sound.
Cheng Yang and others also followed him down. Although they could not make no noise like Fu Chengyu, their noise was not loud enough to alert the enemy spies inside.
On the other side, Zhou Cheng also led his men into the secret passage from the entrance next to the tombstone.
Inside the secret passage, Zhang Jianjun and Wang Wude were setting up a table and eating, humming a little tune while enjoying their snacks and drinking wine.
The two of them fantasized about the happy and idyllic days they would have in the harbor city in the future, which was in stark contrast to their current predicament. The more they thought about it, the more uncomfortable they felt. It was so pathetic, so fucking pathetic.
Wang Wude lay in a pile of dry grass, his back against a stone wall. He crossed his legs and shook his feet. He picked a peanut and put it in his mouth. He said leisurely, "Brother, hiding in the mountains is really a miserable life. I can't even see a female mosquito, let alone a woman."
Zhang Jianjun, who sat across from him with a hunched back, advised, "Be patient. As the saying goes, there is always hardship before happiness. For the future paradise, all the hard work is worth it."
Wang Wude disagreed, saying, "The idea of suffering first and then happiness is a lie. I've seen many people toil their whole lives, working like a workhorse, and then die without even enjoying a single day of happiness. I'm not like them. I live by the promise of enjoying life while I can. I can do whatever I want."
He drank a few ounces of rice wine and was a little tipsy. His dark face was red and hot, as if he was drunk. He slammed the table and stood up and said, "Do what you want. I'm going to go out and see if there's a female, hehe!"
"Why can't you just hold back? If you get caught, it'll be a disaster. That vicious old woman will definitely not let you off."
"Hey, what are you afraid of? She's already gone down the mountain, how would she know?" Wang Wude waved his hand indifferently, and walked towards the exit with drunken steps.
Just after taking two steps, he saw someone walking towards him with a gun. What the hell? He actually saw a figure. When he saw the police uniform the person was wearing, he was shocked. It was a cop.
Damn, they’ve already crawled into the hole, but they can still find their way here. Were these people rats in their previous life?
Wang Wude sobered up instantly and threw the bottle of wine in his hand at them, "Bang!"
"Brother, the cops are coming, run!"
He shouted and turned to run. This cave was a secret passage formed by nature. It had several twists and turns. As long as he ran in that direction, he would not be caught easily.
Zhang Jianjun heard his shout and stood up and overturned the table. "Bang! Clang!"
They ran towards the other end, and just after they took a few steps, something cold hit their foreheads.
It's a gun!
I turned my head and saw that the people behind me were chasing me again. I was attacked from both sides and it was difficult for me to escape even if I had wings.
Although Wang Wude said that he was not afraid of losing his head and wanted to enjoy himself while he could, when he faced the cold muzzle of the gun, he was so scared that his face twitched, his lips trembled, and his legs shook, as if he was about to pee.
Zhang Jianjun didn't want to surrender, so he forced himself to calm down and think of a way to escape the gun. There were few people on this side, so he was thinking about the possibility of seizing the gun and escaping.
Since you're going to die anyway, you might as well give it a try. Maybe there's still a chance of survival.
Fu Chengyu's cold eagle eyes stared at his reaction, as if he could see through his thoughts. He pointed the muzzle of the gun at his head again and said, "Don't move, or I'll shoot!"
Cheng Yang stepped forward and handcuffed his hands.
Zhang Jianjun lowered his head resignedly.
Wang Wude's hands were also handcuffed.
They also found a bunch of antiques in the cave, including bronze tripods, blue and white porcelain vases from the Song Dynasty, and stone and jade artifacts from the Ming Dynasty...
Some of them are not even recorded in the museum and may have been unearthed from the ground. It turns out that these two people were not only enemy spies but also tomb robbers.
One of the charges alone would have been enough to get them shot, but two combined would have been enough to get them killed.
After the police captured the three enemy spies and brought them back to the Public Security Bureau for interrogation, Chen Ergu refused to confess and denied that she was an enemy spy.
She was stalling for time, and if she could just delay for one more day she would succeed.
By then, Guangzhou and even the entire mainland will become an international laughing stock.
Chen Ergu was handcuffed to a chair. Facing the police's interrogation, she turned her head away and said, "Humph! Even if you shoot me now, I won't tell you anything."
As long as the mission is completed, someone will take advantage of the chaos to rescue her. If she confesses that the mission has failed, the mainland will not let her go, and her superiors will not send anyone to rescue her.
Nothing could be learned from Chen Ergu, so Zhang Jianjun and Wang Wude were temporarily detained and interrogated.
They both denied being enemy spies. "Sir, Sir, you are all good comrades serving the people. You can't just frame people. We are really not enemy spies. We just wanted to be lazy and not work. We hid in the cave and had some wine and food. We didn't do anything. We are very good and excellent people."
Zhou Cheng shouted, "Still trying to quibble? Aunt Chen has already confessed. You are her accomplices. Tell the truth about everything you know. Leniency will be given to those who confess, severity will be given to those who resist."
When Wang Wude heard that Chen Ergu had confessed, he was so frightened that his whole body trembled, his legs shaking like sieves, and he almost peed himself. "Confess, confess what?"
Zhang Jianjun's psychological quality is stronger than his. He seemed to guess that the other party did not say anything to Chen Ergu, so he came to interrogate them, trying to trick them into telling the truth.
He said with a mournful face, "Public Security comrades, no matter how many times you ask, the answer won't be the same. We are truly ordinary people. We are loyal to the country, the party, and the people. We have done nothing wrong!"
Zhou Cheng narrowed his eyes slightly, his eyes gleaming with shrewdness as he stared at them with a scrutinizing expression. "We've found everything you hid in the mountains. You could be a tomb robber or an enemy spy, either of which would be acceptable. You've been shot, and you can't even be loyal to your country. How can you claim to be loyal to the Party and the people? Your conscience has long been eaten away."
"If you still want to hide it when you are about to die, then you will be shot."
Zhou Cheng glanced at Wang Wude, who was crying with fear, said something, and stood up to walk out.
Seeing him about to leave, Wang Wude quickly said, "Comrade Public Security, I'll tell you everything. I don't want to be shot. I'm still young and don't want to die. I haven't married yet and I don't have children. There's no one to hold my candle to me. I'll tell you everything."
