Traveling through the Republic of China: Spy Shadow Enters the Game

After Wei Sheng finished speaking, Chen Linqiong spoke.

"Guo Tao doesn't look that easy to deal with. Let's go and test him first. I think that kid can talk. We can find a chance to trick him and see if we can get any information."

Hearing Chen Linqiong's words, Wei Sheng frowned.

"That's a good idea. Children won't lie. At worst, we can use the child to threaten Guo Tao and make him tell the truth. Did Lin Ruotang come to see the child yesterday, or did he do something else?"

The next day, Guo Tao was cleaning the store as usual, and Dongsheng was squatting at the door playing.

Wei Sheng stood not far away, waving at Dong Sheng, holding a big sugar man in his hand.

"Dongsheng, Dongsheng, come here, uncle will give you some candy!"

Dongsheng glanced at Guo Tao in the store, then lowered his head and continued playing with the stones on the ground.

Seeing this, Chen Linqiong immediately instructed someone to go to the back door of the bookstore to make some noise.

Guo Tao heard a knock at the back door and frowned slightly. This was not his secret signal. After opening the door, he looked at the person at the door carefully.

The person at the door pulled Guo Tao to ask questions, Guo Tao looked confused.

"What are you going to do? This is a bookstore, you can't stay here. If you want to stay, go to the front."

Wei Sheng and Chen Linqiong in front saw that Dongsheng ignored them, so they had no choice but to walk up to Dongsheng and put the sugar man in front of his nose.

Dongsheng twitched his nose, glanced at Wei Sheng, and didn't speak to him.

If the two of them had not heard him speak before, they would have thought that the child was a mute.

"Dongsheng, who usually comes to your house?"

Wei Sheng asked temptingly. Seeing that Dong Sheng still didn't say anything, he looked a little impatient.

"Lin Ruotang, your Aunt Lin, do you know? What does she say to your father every time she comes? Tell your uncle, and he will give you candy."

Dongsheng lowered his head and fiddled with the stones on the ground. When he heard this, he looked up at Wei Sheng and continued playing with the stones.

Wei Sheng's patience was almost exhausted. He pulled Dong Sheng's arm and pulled him up.

"Kid, can't you talk? Your Aunt Lin came to the bookstore yesterday. Who else came to the bookstore? Did Wang Dabao come to the bookstore?"

Dongsheng was young, but not stupid. Seeing Wei Sheng like this, he shouted at the top of his voice:

"father-"

When Guo Tao heard Dongsheng crying, he immediately closed the back door and ran to the front door.

Chen Linqiong saw that something was wrong and that Guo Tao would not be able to get anything out of her when he came. She covered Dongsheng's mouth and said to Wei Sheng:

“Take it away first!”

Dongsheng struggled, Wei Sheng picked him up and drove away.

Guo Tao came out and saw only the stones Dongsheng had played with on the ground. He quickly shouted:

"Winter life?"

"Winter life?"

His face changed and he asked the neighbors,

"Have you seen our Dongsheng?"

He turned around and called Lin Ruotang.

Lin Ruotang's expression changed immediately after he answered the phone.

"Dongsheng is missing. He wasn't there in front of the store?"

After hearing this, Xie Wuwei also put down his chopsticks.

The two of them stood up immediately, and Lin Ruotang said to Xie Wuwei:

"Go find Guo Tao and ask him what's going on. I'll go get help from the inspection team!"

The two hurriedly left the station and met Sun Yizheng, who quickly called out:

"What are you two doing in such a hurry?"

"Dongsheng is missing!"

After Lin Ruotang finished speaking, he rushed out.

Sun Yizhen was surprised. Who was so blind as to touch that Xiao Dongsheng? You know, he was like Lin Ruotang's biological son.

When Lin Ruotang came out of the inspection office, he saw Xie Wuwei, who also spoke with a sullen face.

"It was a gang. Someone attracted Guo Tao's attention at the back door. The child was playing at the front door and was taken away directly."

Lin Ruotang also saw Guo Tao and asked:

"What does that person at the door look like?"

Guo Tao described it, and Lin Ruotang frowned slightly.

"Why does it feel familiar? It should be someone we know."

When Guo Tao heard this, he perked up.

"So, he's not a human trafficker."

"Probably not. It might be coming towards us."

When Xie Wuwei said this, Lin Ruotang had a flash of inspiration.

"I remember it seemed to be someone from the action team!"

Lin Ruotang and Xie Wuwei shouted in unison:

"Wei Sheng!"

"I'll go to the station, and you go to Wei Sheng's house. You must find him for me!"

Lin Ruotang said through gritted teeth, his eyes cold.

After seeing them leave, Guo Tao returned to the store in a daze, but saw a letter in the store. He picked up the letter and read it.

"If you want to see this child, come to Jingjiangyuan."

Jingjiangyuan is a restaurant. Seeing this, Guo Tao wanted to contact Lin Ruotang, but a man came to the door with a gun in his hand. When he saw Guo Tao pick up the phone, he pointed the gun at him.

"Let's go!"

After hearing this, Guo Tao slowly put down the phone.

Meanwhile, Sun Yizheng was also taken away by Chen Linqiong.

"Stationmaster, the former bookstore owner Guo Tao, both in age and status, fits the bill for 'Partridge'. Furthermore, Inspector Lin and Deputy Stationmaster Xie both have close ties to them. If they are Red Party members, then everything makes sense."

Hearing Chen Linqiong's words, Sun Yizheng got in the car.

"Where are you taking me?"

"Stationmaster, you'll know when you get there."

At this time, Guo Tao also arrived at Jingjiang Building. As soon as he entered, he saw Wei Sheng.

"Where's Dongsheng?"

"I want winter life?"

Seeing this, Wei Sheng came down from upstairs.

"Let me ask you a question. Did Lin Ruotang go anywhere to buy medicine for Dongsheng?"

Guo Tao frowned slightly and said quickly:

"Yes!"

"Really? Then apart from Lin Ruotang, no one has ever been to your bookstore?"

Wei Sheng snorted coldly and continued to ask.

"Yes, you are still lying. It seems that you don't want this child anymore..."

Wei Sheng waved his hand, and a man appeared holding Dongsheng.

"Dad, dad!"

"Dongsheng, let me ask you, were you really sick yesterday?"

When Guo Tao heard this, he looked up at Dongsheng, who was in tears.

"Dad, my stomach hurts, my stomach hurts!"

Hearing Dongsheng's words, Guo Tao's eyes turned red.

"Captain of the Guard, if you have any questions, just ask me. Don't embarrass the child!"

"Children won't lie, but you can't be sure."

After Wei Sheng finished speaking, he walked over to Guo Tao and looked him over.

At this time, Sun Yizhen and Chen Linqiong also arrived.

Seeing this, Wei Sheng looked at Chen Linqiong, then waved his hand and Dongsheng was brought into the house with his mouth covered.

When Sun Yizheng arrived, he saw only Guo Tao in the room.

"This is?"

Sun Yizhen looked confused, not knowing what the two of them were up to.

Chen Linqiong explained:

"This bookstore owner is quite extraordinary. He showed up the day my grandfather and uncle escaped last time, and he's shown up at inappropriate times several times."

Sun Yizheng looked at Chen Linqiong, then at Guo Tao,

"Wei Sheng suspected he was a member of the Red Party, and even suspected he was 'Partridge'."

As soon as Chen Linqiong finished speaking, Wei Sheng continued to ask:

"Guo Tao, are you a member of the Red Party?"
