Chapter 152 Lin Xiao is seriously injured
"After revealing our identities, she still didn't know what was good for her, so we used torture. Once we got the documents, we silenced her," Yan Shuo added. "We could tell her that we rescued her brother. Usually, women like this are stubborn; if you bring her brother to her and she still doesn't cooperate, she's asking for death."
Amidst Yan Shuo's reprimands, Li Gang scratched his head and hurried away.
Zhou Hu watched his retreating figure and couldn't help but laugh, "Li Gang only does things without thinking. If you assign him these tasks, he'll probably have to go back and find his brain first."
"I wish he were really that stupid." Yan Shuo picked up his teacup and took a sip.
Zhou Hu was taken aback: "You mean he's faking it?"
"Hmm." Yan Shuo put down his teacup, a cold smile playing on his lips. "The woman he's involved with is from the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics (CBIS), yet he doesn't report it. What do you think?"
"Huh?" Zhou Hu immediately panicked, reaching for the gun at his waist. "Then I'll go kill that woman!"
The Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics (CBIS) were sworn enemies of them, and keeping them around would only pose a threat.
"Idiot." Yan Shuo slapped his hand away. "A little scare will do. He didn't do anything wrong. He just mistook Li Gang for a rich commoner and didn't know his true identity."
He paused, then recalled, "What was that woman's name again? Cheng Ge. She and Li Gang had been dating for a few months, but Li Gang didn't report it. Do you think they're having an affair?"
"Definitely!" Zhou Hu said confidently.
Yan Shuo raised an eyebrow: "What is it?"
Zhou Hu chuckled and suggested, "How about we arrest them and interrogate them?"
"You're not even as good as Li Gang," Yan Shuo rolled his eyes at him. "At least he knew not to report it, to keep it a secret, and not to expose it. You idiot, all you know is to arrest and interrogate him, making a scene so everyone knows. Then the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics will find out, and what's the point of playing?"
Zhou Hu scratched his head, looking embarrassed: "What should we do then?"
"Talk to Li Gang tomorrow and see what he thinks," Yan Shuo instructed. "It's just a woman, after all. If it really doesn't work out, just ask the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics for her. Making too much of a fuss will have a bad influence."
He turned to Su Yan beside him and said in a deep voice, "Su Yan, go see that woman, Cheng Ge. After Li Gang replies, ask her what she thinks. If she doesn't want to, that's fine. If she does, she can come to our team, but she must completely sever ties with the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics (CBIS). If she's being controlled by the CBIS in any way, investigate and deal with her thoroughly."
Su Yan immediately stood up straight and saluted, "Yes, Captain!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned around and walked out quickly.
Now that the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics (CBIS) has lost its historically formidable high-ranking officials, the newly appointed director, Wu Dongchang, is more moderate in his approach. Although, like his predecessor, he likes to plant spies everywhere, there are many beautiful women around, and sex spies frequently come and go, he has reduced his attempts to create trouble for the Military Bureau of Investigation and Statistics (MIIS). The two sides are now just probing each other, but not so recklessly.
When they discovered each other's spies were in their departments, Wu Dongchang and Dai Li had tea together and took the spies back. Hmm, that was really gentle. What else could they do? Ask them to get married?
The person in question will definitely be reassigned to a sinecure. Do you really think every agent is immune to being controlled by their superiors? If you say no, see if the other party believes you.
However, many of Yan Shuo's young men are still single, and there aren't enough girls in his own team. Why don't they set up a girl training class run by the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics in the eastern suburbs and bring all the girls over? There are about 100 girls there, all very pretty. It would be a real waste to give them to the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics.
The Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics (CBIS) scours for girls everywhere, gives them simple training, and then stuffs them into various positions. Government officials are given these positions as staff, and if someone takes a liking to them, they'll be moved to other roles like the archives, general affairs, finance, or secretarial office.
They treat girls like birds, raising them well and then selling them everywhere. They're really despicable.
It would be better to bring one to your own team to be a house sparrow.
Yan Shuo arrived at Lin Xiao's room at the secret base. Lin Xiao was receiving an IV drip at the time. Upon seeing Yan Shuo, she struggled to get up.
The medical equipment Lin Xiao used, such as the infusion set, was the modern transparent infusion set that Yan Shuo got from the system Xiao Zhi. It looked quite high-end, unlike the yellow rubber tubing used in hospitals at this time. Goodness, even the speed control was very crude, and some didn't even have speed control, causing patients unnecessary pain.
On the table next to her were several boxes of oral medications and capsules, which looked very high-tech and expensive, making Lin Xiao so moved that she almost wanted to sell herself to Yan Shuo.
Of course, the system Xiao Zhi must have arranged the names, origins, production dates, suggested retail prices, and other textual information of these drugs, making them look very expensive, all of them imported drugs.
Yan Shuo also registered a number of pharmaceutical factories in Europe and Canada. Well, shell pharmaceutical companies, which produce regular drugs. As for the drugs that Xiao Zhi had arranged, they are only recorded in the factory records, and even those records are very vague. Yan Shuo would not produce these good drugs in those foreign places. He would just leave a traceable drug origin. If he is investigated, he would just stop production and move to another place.
Anyway, the people in those factories are all locals from various countries. Whether they live or die, you can arrest them and interrogate them as you please. Yan Shuo orders medicines by telegram and they are shipped over. If you want to find the real boss Yan Shuo, you can only dream about it.
"Lie down, be careful of the wound. Put something under her!" Yan Shuo said.
"Yes!" Team member He Qiao quickly placed a pillow behind Lin Xiao's back and neck to make it easier for Lin Xiao and Yan Shuo to talk.
"How's the mission going?" Yan Shuo asked.
"I'm sorry, Captain, the mission failed!" Lin Xiao looked dejected. Looking at her wounds, she realized she had almost died. A bullet had pierced her abdomen, causing a penetrating wound and ripping out her intestines. If this had happened with the Communists, where medical resources were scarce, she might not have survived.
"Captain, that woman who tipped off 76 is just greedy. She made a good deal with Lin Xiao to his face, promising not to report our agents, but then she called 76 for just 3 silver dollars." He Qiao's face turned red with anger, and her speech quickened. "In no time, Lin Xiao was being watched and hunted down. If I had been a step slower, Lin Xiao would have been gone."
"Hmm, and then what did you do?" Yan Shuo's gaze swept over Lin Xiao's wound, his tone indifferent.
"Me? I killed all three spies from behind, and the woman who brought the message was killed too," He Qiao answered crisply.
"Not bad. Once Lin Xiao recovers, continue working with the masses." Yan Shuo looked at Lin Xiao and spoke slowly.
"Captain!" Lin Xiao looked embarrassed, his voice filled with guilt, "I'm sorry, I didn't know what was important. Those who tipped me off for money deserve to die!"
"Oh? Why do you say that? Didn't you say we should persuade the masses?" Yan Shuo raised an eyebrow.
"Captain, please don't tease me. This incident has made me realize that some people are incorrigible, only caring about money and not recognizing anyone." Lin Xiao's eyes reddened, feeling both angry and aggrieved. "Without Sister He Qiao, I wouldn't be able to see you today. From now on, I will listen to you completely and will never dare to question you again. I will do whatever you say."
She was genuinely angry. Not only did he refuse to cooperate, but he also betrayed her for a few dollars. It was utterly unreasonable.
