After Waking up Beside the Villain - Chapter 179

    “You don’t need to be so cautious, Mr. Adams. If you don’t mind another body in this study, then I don’t mind other bystanders in our conversation.”

    Chu Yun said.

    Adams’ response most likely contained some cryptic language, but he didn’t care. The layout of this room and having Adams as a hostage was enough for him to not have to fear possible fire suppression.

    No one dares to gamble with Adams’ life whether their bullets are faster or his bullets are faster.

    Seeing the bodyguard who fell after the velvet curtain, maybe even Adams himself didn’t dare to gamble.

    “You are very confident, Dr. Chu. But this is the French Concession.”

    Adams said solemnly.

    “On the battlefields of Europe, it seems that Germany did not withdraw its troops and give up aggression because the area belonged to France.”

    This is Adams’ gun.

    A new weapon from the German factory, small size, strong stability, strong lethality, in this era, it is already a pretty good gun cherish.

    “The war in Europe is over.”

    Adams’s eyes rolled, his eyes were fixed on Chu Yunsheng’s hands that were skilled in checking the gun, his bushy eyebrows trembled slightly.

    For the first time, he felt that the mesh cloth domesticated by Germany was half the size of a Chinese green eagle, or that many of them were somewhat unreliable. Such a person with extraordinary skills, insidious and cunning danger, the information he finally found out turned out to be just a doctor with some little secrets.

    This is hilarious!

    With two guns in hand, Chu Yunsheng sat back on the sofa chair opposite Adams.

    His fingers were casually placed on the armrest, his posture was relaxed, and he was as calm as a guest who came to visit.

    Of course, the premise is that even if he is slightly drooping, he is always facing Adams’ muzzle.

    The crisis pressing on Adams’ heart was not weakened by Chu Yunsheng’s departure. On the contrary, his unintentional pretense of relaxation made Adams more cautious.

    Dusk had sunk from the glass on the balcony door, and the garden scenery was buried in the darkness one by one. Suddenly, a flash of lightning lit up, and the street lights on the corner were covered with a lush blue color.

    There was a faint sound of thunder in the sky, and the patter of rain fell.

    In the study, the mellow aroma of red wine slowly overflowed.

    Chu Yunsheng sat opposite Adams, the electric light of Bai Sensen hooked up his bony profile, covered with a layer of clear light, which made his eyebrows cold, like a silent snow mountain.

    He didn’t see any murderous intentions in him, he spoke lightly like a friend talking.

    “The war is over, but the hurt and shame will remain forever. Even though France has gained a superficial peace and great benefits at the European conference, I believe they would still be willing to have such an opportunity. Let you leave your corpse on Chinese soil instead of returning to Europe alive.”

    “Your death will only be the result of the rampant gangsters, and the mistake caused by the slow response of the patrol house, not the fault of the French Concession.”

    Chu Yunsheng looked at Adams and said in German: “You are afraid of this, Mr. Adams. This will make your prepared ticket a piece of waste paper.”

    “As the leader of the Green Eagle, you know this very well. But you also know that Germany’s willingness to protect your return does not mean that they are willing to turn against France for you. They have not Power in war, you are not worth enough to break the peace again.”

    Undisguised, Adams’ face became even more ugly.

    He knew that Chu Yunsheng’s guess was completely correct. His current situation seems to be still the same, but it was doomed when the news of the defeat in Europe came.

    “Jianmen’s intelligence tentacles, have they reached the Green Eagle?”

    Adams’ gaze at Chu Yunsheng changed slightly.

    “Perhaps this is not the information leak of the Green Eagle, but the lack of rigor in France?” Chu Yunsheng calmly looked at Adams, raised his hand and poured out the glass of red wine that Adams only poured.

    Adams’ eyes moved slightly.

    French is not strict enough? It’s almost a pretty obvious hint.

    Adams was silent for a moment, then leaned over to take the glass of wine, a gentle smile slowly appeared on his gloomy face: “You are one of the smartest Chinese people I have ever met, Chu. You are by no means an ordinary doctor, and in your intelligence system, you have at least a grade A.”

    “I think you came here to see me in person, not just to threaten me, or to tell me that my hole cards have been wiped out by those French bastards.”

    “I’d like to know what you’re here for and would like to help you, my friend.”

    Adams completely ignored the cold and dangerous muzzle and raised his glass with kindness and friendliness.

    He thought he had a general insight into Chu Yunsheng’s purpose. As for Chu Yunsheng, he didn’t mind giving Adams this illusion.

     A clear and crisp ding.

    The two raised their glasses.

    Feeling the strong fragrance of the wine spreading between the tongue and tongue, Chu Yun’s slightly lowered muzzle tapped lightly on the knee, abandoning the twists and turns of the virtual and the snake , said directly: “I like to make friends, Mr. Adams. But as a friend, you still lack a little candor.”

    “At least, this way of inviting friends is not polite.”

    Adams glanced at Chu Yunsheng’s hands, and wanted to refute that no friend used a gun to invite someone to drink.

    But he wasn’t stupid enough to say it at this point.

    “I’m sure you know that it’s an Oriental scam.”

    Adams said: “Or, it was a misunderstanding.”

    Chu Yunsheng turned a deaf ear to this perfunctory sophistry, and just said: “The green eagle knows Sheng Yue’s identity.”

    The name Sheng Yue made Adams’s perfectly framed smile froze for a moment, and there was a bit of sigh in his tone: “Of course, but this is what happened later. When Ying selected her as an official intelligence officer, we did not know that she was a spy sent by the Orientals.”

    “You have to admit, the Orientals are quite a cunning bunch.”

    “They prepared a perfect background for Sheng Yue, and after she entered the Green Eagle, they carefully controlled her task speed, so that she would not be promoted to A-level and face more stringent It will not fall to the bottom of the C-level for a long time, and will not be able to access any useful information.”

    “If she hadn’t contacted Toyo several times after receiving your assignment, even the alert Green Eagle might not have been able to catch her tail.”

    During the chase just now, when Chu Yunsheng saw the muzzles on the two British ships, he was sure that Sheng Yue, a double agent who thought he was hiding very well, I am afraid that it has already been exposed in Adams’s field of vision.

    He slowly recalled the forces and spies who came and went around these days, and said, “The Orientals are the first to notice the abnormality in me than you.”

    Adams’ lips touched the rim of the glass, only his brow moved slightly.

    “It comes from some of their intelligence, but I don’t have many flaws. I tend to be an unintentional move that aroused their suspicion, or because of those very effective The emergence of Chinese patent medicine belongs to Jingzhi, and when this news is exposed, as a close friend of the doctor beside him, I should be suspicious.”

    Chu Yun said.

    “But at that time, neither you nor them paid much attention to me. Doubt and attention are not the same thing.”

    “Even in your intelligence, there must be a Chao Shimin who is almost the same as me.”

    Chu Yunsheng’s indifferent voice was clear and gloomy in the thunderstorm.

    He was scrambling: “Such doubts will probably last until Mr. Fang and Jingzhi have to take out penicillin under the pressure of the European conference.”

    “Tongyang’s spies lurking beside Mr. Fang discovered clues from the visits of the mirror. After that, they launched an investigation and learned about the existence of antibiotics from the US imperialists and other forces. They improved the The importance attached to the doctors, biologists, and pharmacists around the mirror, and through constant seemingly useless contact and probing, the focus of suspicion has been locked on me.”

    “There is no wall that is impermeable to the wind.”

    “Except the Orientals, all forces in Haicheng have been informed more or less and participated in these investigations and actions.”

    “The Green Eagle is also in it.”

    “But the Green Eagle is different from other forces. You deliberately let the Orientals discover your actions. On the surface, the Orientals are using your influence to cover their tracks, but in fact, It’s you who are mockingly watching the clown-like performance of the Orientals.”

    “You made everyone mistakenly believe that your green eagle was being played by Toyo’s spies, and in the end, under the cover of Toyo spies, you showed your fangs and achieved your goal in one fell swoop.”

    “They are making wedding clothes for others after all.”

    The pure red wine slipped into his throat, but Adams could not taste it.

    He narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, “You have an idiom in China, which is called utterance without evidence.”

      “

    Adams’ eyebrows twitched uncontrollably, he shrugged his shoulders like an American emperor who learned humor, and said with a smile: “I should justify, this is a rescue operation, the green eagle is a general The kind people you rescued from the Orientals. But I think you don’t want to hear that.”

    Chu Yunsheng ignored Adams’ performance and continued his topic: “In the house on Pudong Road, Green Eagle sent someone to get the information from Sheng Yue’s mouth, and killed her by the way. But Sheng Yue Facing us, although I betrayed Green Eagle, I did not betray Toyo.”

    “She chose to die with your intelligence personnel.”

    “But before that, in the loosely guarded wing, she secretly passed some news about me to a nearby apartment building, where there was a A famous Oriental spy, Fan Chengmei.”

    “But it still hasn’t escaped your sight.”

    “In the back alley of the Oriental Daily, when Dongyang’s spy was connecting with Fan Chengmei, the Green Eagles shot in the dark, killing Fan Chengmei, but letting the spy go. “

    “My message successfully arrived in Toyo’s intelligence system. After that, it was a hijacking that took advantage of the trend. You and Mr. Pete reached a temporary superficial friendship, and thus took advantage of the He put the green eagle on the skin of English and stopped the hijacking by the Orientals.”

    “From beginning to end, the Green Eagles have been pretending to be pigs to eat tigers, taking advantage of the news of the defeat in Europe, from giving up the power of the patrol room and the police station, to showing the incompetence of the intelligence network, you let all People take it for granted that you’ve begun to back down and be weak.”

    “But in your heart, Mr. Adams, you see yourself as the hand outside the game.”

    The rare long words spit out, making Chu Yunsheng’s voice slightly hoarse.

    He took a slow sip of red wine.

    And Adams on the opposite side has obviously lost his interest in wine tasting.

    The sharpness in his eyes, like a falcon, could no longer be concealed, and the deeply wrinkled eyebrows showed that his heart was no longer peaceful. Those hidden, tiny, discreet arrangements are perfect for making him conceited.

    But right now, it has been completely cut open.

    He doesn’t believe that Yu Jingzhi’s Sword Gate has such ability, if so, he will never need to ask Fang Jiming’s head to knock one by one with those precious medicines The door to those ambitious.

    In fact, Chu Yunsheng was able to completely strip out everything inside, in addition to the clues around him and the information about Jianmen, there were also some details of the original plot.

    For example, Adams’ final ferry ticket to leave Haicheng and his infiltration of the Oriental intelligence system were mentioned in the original plot when Li Lingbi fled Haicheng and sighed Yu Jingzhi’s stubbornness. Although it was only a few words, it was enough for Chu Yunsheng to judge the truth.

    “You amaze me, Chu.”

    Adams raised the corners of his lips and said profoundly: “Maybe your future is not in this diseased land, but in prosperous and prosperous Europe. This place will eventually be engulfed by war.”

    Chu Yun said: “So, my future should be on this land.”

    Adams simply suspected that Chu Yunsheng did not understand what he meant, he said in surprise: “Even if the ruthless war here will burn you to a handful of dusty ashes?”

    Chu Yunsheng looked calm: “A cowardly fleeing person will not be nobler than a handful of ashes on this land.”

    “Useless sacrifice.” Adams scoffed, “You’re devaluing yourself.”

    Chu Yunsheng did not speak again.

    But he is very clear in his heart that his value may be higher, and some sacrifices may be really useless, but if there is a need here, then he will be one of those useless ones.

    The damp and oppressive rain poured in from the half-opened window, chilling in all directions, and it was as tight as a deep sea.

    Adams picked up the glass again, but compared to just now, there was a fine layer of cold sweat on his palm, which made the glass in his hand a little slippery and unstable.

    He said: “Maybe I understand what you mean, Chu. You want me to call China and help China at the upcoming European conference.”

      Use the eagle to help me accomplish several things.”

    “Oh?”

    Adams didn’t let his guard down because of this, he smiled and said, “You can tell me, my friend.”

    Chu Yunsheng glanced at the clock in the study room and said: “The first thing, cut off all the hands of the Dongyang people who held out Haicheng, I hope that Dongyang’s intelligence system in Haicheng will fall into Completely paralyzed. The second thing is to release the train detained in Qilu. Before the end of the European Conference, it is still German territory. I know that the tentative seizure confirmation is your order. “

    “The third thing is to sack the three pharmaceutical factories of the Xuan family in Haicheng, send all the medicines to the Oriental Newspaper Office, and clear the intelligence network of Tianminghui and its subordinates.”

    Li Lingbi’s four lovers, Chu Yunsheng has never let up his attention. Gu Qishu and Du Qi have not shown any harm yet, Gao Lan has not yet arrived in Haicheng, there is only one Xuanqing River, and he has begun to surrender to the foreigners in the northeast.

    A large number of drugs were escorted there. Because of the different clients, his movements were quite large, which was completely different from Yu Jingzhi’s careful concealment.

    It’s all about killing someone with a knife, so Chu Yunsheng doesn’t mind killing one more.

    “The last one.”

    Chu Yunsheng put down the wine glass, untied the jade cufflinks that bound the wrist bones with one hand, and said in a low voice: “In order to celebrate our friendship and cooperation, there should be a sumptuous dinner.”

    Adams was pondering the purpose of Chu Yunsheng through the connection and interests of these things, when he heard such a request, he was stunned subconsciously, and continued to rub his palms and laugh: “I must Again, Chu, you really are a very interesting and amazing person.”

    “Louis.”

     Adams shouted.

    The door of the study was pushed open immediately, and the corridor outside the door was full of people standing with many guns, but no one dared to shoot rashly.

    Louis glanced vigilantly at Chu Yunsheng, who was sitting peacefully on the ground, then looked at Adams, with appropriate worry and tension on his face: “Mr. Adams, what are your orders?”

    “Let the kitchen prepare a sumptuous French dinner and bring it in as soon as possible.” Adams didn’t seem to see the tense atmosphere blocked by a door, and gave the order with a smile, “Oh right , take out the bottle of good wine I brought from China, it is used to entertain the distinguished guests.”

    “Yes.”

    Louis responded and turned to leave, but was stopped by Adams.

    Louis’s expression did not change, but his eyes were full of surprise.

    But when he saw Chu Yunsheng’s figure, he seemed to understand something and agreed to leave.

    The edge of the French Concession.

    The river is connected to the vast ocean, stretching like a picture scroll.

    In the wet rain curtain, Yu Jingzhi got out of the car, stood under the umbrella, and looked at the dark outline of a building not far away.

    “That man was caught from around here?” he asked.

    Liu Er held an umbrella and said, “Yes, sir. Not long after Mr. Chu disappeared, they started near Chu’s house. They tried to kidnap Mr. Chu’s parents and our people. Blocked and rescued the two old men. The one who escaped was scattered in all directions, and the gentleman came all the way, and this was the only one left.”

    The Three Caves of the Crafty Rabbit.

    Yu Jingzhi had already checked three Adams residences and four important Green Eagle strongholds, but found no trace of Chu Yunsheng.

    Now this is the last place.

    Liu Er looked ahead and said carefully, “Sir, if this is still…”

    His voice was cold and hoarse as if soaked in rainwater: “Then search the whole city. They say I am the emperor of Haicheng, then I don’t mind sitting on that dragon. chair.”

    Liu Er raised his head in shock: “Sir—”

    He looked at Yu Jingzhi’s back and felt a strong heart palpitation, as if he was facing the blood-red pupils of a wild beast that was out of control.

    But the next sentence, Yu Jingzhi seemed to be calm as usual: “He won’t like me doing this. So, he will give us a hint.”

    Liu Er opened his mouth, not knowing what to say, but his back suddenly became extremely cold. He lowered his head and looked, but unconsciously, he subconsciously took a half step back and withdrew from the umbrella.

      A small white building stood there, the door opened, and cars drove out one after another, quickly disappearing into the rain.

    “Sir!”

    Liu Er smiled: “I’ll take someone to stop these cars!”

    “Don’t stop.”

    In the shadow under the umbrella, Yu Jingzhi’s eyes lit a small light, like a candle flickering in the rain: “Send some people and follow them. Yunsheng did not leave, he is still in that building. in the house.”

    He turned his head and looked at the Haicheng Clock Tower, which was completely invisible in the rainy night, and the corners of his ice-like lips slowly curved up: “At this time, I guess, he is having dinner. “

    …

    The elegantly decorated study is gradually filled with the aroma of food.

    One servant after another brought in trays of delicate and delicious meals and placed them on the coffee table between the two sofa chairs, as if they were really preparing for a treat. A sumptuous dinner for the guests.

    Louis, who handled things well, took a bottle of red wine, lifted the lid, poured the wine into the decanter, and patiently decanted.

    Soon, the last plate of the meal was also served on the coffee table.

    A servant came over and repositioned the cutlery.

    When this adjustment was made in front of Chu Yunsheng, the sharp knife suddenly bounced and stabbed straight at Chu Yunsheng’s neck.

    This distance is very close, only less than forty centimeters, the servant with the fierce look is confident that one strike will kill.

    But before he raised his arm, it seemed like ten centimeters before his wrist was snapped and turned over by a clever force, and the blade turned around, cutting his throat.

    Chu Yunsheng’s straight back loosened, he suddenly fell back, and leaned into the chair.

    “I may not be able to dodge your bullet, but I know Mr. Adams can’t dodge mine either.”

    Chu Yunsheng raised his eyes and looked at Louis who raised his gun.

    Louis did not take advantage of the chaos.

    He failed to seize the moment when the servant attacked and shot and killed Chu Yunsheng, and then, Chu Yunsheng aimed at Adams’ muzzle, and stabilized again, so that he could not act rashly.

    “A ridiculous farce.”

    Adams sighed helplessly: “Okay, Louie, put down the gun. Don’t spoil such a perfect dinner.”

    Louis looked at Chu Yunsheng, and put his arm down as he said.

    Facing Chu Yunsheng’s window, the curtains on both sides fell, dividing the rainy night from the study, and blocking the sight of all prying eyes.

    These two gunshots made Adams feel inexplicably frightened.

    He still couldn’t associate such a gentle and dignified person with the gun-wielding murderer.

    Chu Yunsheng wiped the blood on his fingers with a white napkin, and said, “Mr. Louis, please clean up this place.”

    Louis looked at Adams, Adams nodded slightly, he slowly came to Chu Yunsheng, and his short body pulled up the corpse of the servant who was lying at Chu Yunsheng’s feet, little by little Drag it out.

    Outside the door, he immediately threw the corpse to his men in disgust, then turned and went to the bathroom to wash his hands.

    No one noticed that there was an extra jade cufflink in Louis’ blood-stained right palm—as if no one noticed that the sound of Chu Yun in the study was related to Adams When the French forces were talking, the strange color in his eyes.
