Spy war in the Republic of China, peak undercover

Chapter 400 Return to the Military Control Commission

After Lu Yang sat down, Wang Wen said, "Thank you for your hard work over the past six months."

"It's not hard. It's my honor to serve my country." Lu Yang answered modestly.

Wang Wen smiled and nodded. "You've done a great job in Sudong. I've heard a lot about you."

Lu Yang remained calm, "Mr. Wang, thank you for your praise. I'm just doing my best."

"No need to be modest," Wang Wen waved his hand. "I see your ability. That's why I came here to discuss something important with you."

Lu Yang's heart tightened, but he remained calm on the surface. "Mr. Wang, please speak."

Wang Wen sighed, "The country is becoming increasingly chaotic, and many high-ranking officials are quietly profiting from the country's misfortune. I want to investigate a group of people, but I don't have any decent candidates."

He looked at Lu Yang, "Wenhan, what do you think?"

Lu Yang understood Wang Wen's intention; he was testing his own attitude. He pondered for a moment and replied cautiously, "If Mr. Wang trusts me, I'm willing to do my best."

Wang Wen smiled with satisfaction. "Okay! I knew you would say that."

Lu Yang added: "But, I'm worried about running into Chen Yijun."

Wang Wen waved his hand. "Don't worry. I've already discussed this with Dai Yunong. We're going to work together to establish a Military Control Commission Supervisory Office to investigate corrupt officials. You should first report to the Military Control Commission in X City, a key location in the northwest. I'll give you the position of Supervisory Section Chief."

Lu Yang was a little surprised, "Military Control Commission?"

Wang Wen nodded. "That's right. In fact, the Military Control Commission used to have this responsibility, but now the Labor Party is rampant and they can't take care of it. You can go after the New Year."

Lu Yang thought for a moment and nodded, "I understand. Thank you, Mr. Wang, for your trust."

Wang Wen stood up and patted Lu Yang on the shoulder. "Work hard. The country needs talents like you."

After seeing Wang Wen off, Lu Yang returned home and told Lin Wei the news.

After hearing this, Lin Wei had a complicated expression on her face. She knew this was a good opportunity, but it also meant they would be separated again.

The Spring Festival is coming soon. Lu Yang and Lin Wei decided to enjoy this last time together.

On the morning of New Year's Eve, Lu Yang was awakened by the sound of firecrackers outside the window.

He rubbed his eyes and saw that Lin Wei had gotten up and was busy in the kitchen.

"Are you up so early?" Lu Yang walked into the kitchen and hugged Lin Wei from behind.

Lin Wei turned around and kissed him lightly on the cheek, "Of course, today is New Year's Eve."

Lu Yang took a deep breath, and the air was filled with the aroma of dumpling filling. He smiled and said, "It smells so good."

The two of them made dumplings together and chatted about the past.

Although they knew they were about to part, they all tacitly avoided the topic and just cherished every moment.

In the evening, they sat by the window and watched the gorgeous fireworks outside.

The colorful light illuminated the night sky and also reflected on the faces of the two people.

Lin Wei leaned on Lu Yang's shoulder and whispered, "I really wish time could stop at this moment."

Lu Yang hugged her tightly and said, "Don't worry, we will see each other again soon."

Lin Wei raised her head, tears in her eyes, "You promise?"

Lu Yang nodded solemnly, "I promise."

As the New Year's bell rang, the two hugged and kissed each other.

This kiss contains too many unspeakable emotions: reluctance, worry, expectation, and deep love.

In the next few days, they enjoyed their rare vacation.

Shopping, watching movies, tasting various delicacies...it seems as if we can advance the time of separation in the future in these few short days.

But the good times didn't last long, and the day of separation finally came.

At the train station, Lin Wei hugged Lu Yang tightly, unwilling to let go.

Lu Yang stroked her back gently and comforted her softly: "Don't be sad, we will see each other again soon."

Lin Wei raised her head, holding back tears, "You must be careful, understand?"

Lu Yang nodded, "I will. You should take care of yourself too."

The train whistle sounded and Lu Yang had to get on board.

He stood in front of the window, looking at Lin Wei on the platform until her figure disappeared from his sight.

The train slowly pulled out of the platform. Lu Yang leaned back in his seat and closed his eyes.

Lu Yang sat on the train, his mind full of thoughts.

The organization did not allow Lin Wei to go with them, and he knew the reason very well: Wang Wen's level of trust in him was still unknown, so he had to go and explore the way first.

He secretly rejoiced that this at least could ensure Lin Wei's safety.

The train slowly pulled into X City Station. Lu Yang took a deep breath and prepared to face new challenges.

City X, this northwestern fortress and thousand-year-old ancient city looks particularly majestic in the sun.

The tall city walls are mottled with traces of time.

But it still stands tall and majestic.

The narrow streets are winding and the buildings on both sides are ancient and vicissitudes of life, as if telling countless historical stories.

Lu Yang used the pseudonym Li Tiesheng and came here as the head of the Kuomintang Military Intelligence Bureau's Supervisory Section.

He looked around vigilantly. There were spies and plainclothes officers everywhere in the train station, and the air was filled with a tense atmosphere.

His first stop was to report to the Military Control Commission Station.

Fortunately, the webmaster of City X had never met me before.

Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, there was a sudden commotion behind him.

Looking back, Lu Yang's heart sank. Xiao He was pinned to the ground by several secret agents and was struggling.

"Damn it!" Lu Yang cursed inwardly. Xiao He was arrested on his first visit to City X. This could only mean there was a traitor within the organization. Someone had leaked Xiao He's appearance in advance.

His current identity did not allow him to openly rescue the person, so Lu Yang was thinking of a countermeasure quickly.

Finally, he decided to rescue Xiao He by force.

Quickly hiding in a secluded place, Lu Yang covered his face with a scarf, took off his glasses, and pulled his hat down low.

He took a deep breath, reached into his arms and grasped the gun.

The agents escorted Xiao He to a black car.

Lu Yang approached quietly and took off the safety of his pistol with his hand in his arms.

"boom!"

The first shot hit the spy holding Xiao He. Before the others could react, Lu Yang had already fired several shots.

"Da da da!"

Bullets rained down like raindrops, and the spies fell to the ground one after another. Xiao He took the opportunity to break free and ran towards Lu Yang.

"Get in the car!" Lu Yang pulled Xiao He over and jumped into the black car.

The engine roared, and the car shot out like an arrow. From behind came the sound of gunfire, and the sound of bullets hitting the car body was endless.

Lu Yang turned the steering wheel sharply, and the car weaved back and forth on the narrow streets.

Xiao He clutched the seat tightly, his face pale.

"Why are you here?" Lu Yang asked while driving.

Xiao He gasped and replied: "The organization sent me to cooperate with your operation.

I didn’t expect to be exposed as soon as I arrived.”

Lu Yang frowned: "There must be a problem inside. Do you have a place to go?"

Xiao He nodded: "Yes, in the west of the city."

“Okay, let’s go there first.”

Lu Yang glanced at the rearview mirror. The pursuers were getting closer and closer. He asked anxiously, "Xiao He, can you drive?"

Xiao He shook his head awkwardly: "No, I've never learned it."

Lu Yang sighed inwardly, the situation becoming increasingly difficult. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and a narrow alley came into view.

"Hold on tight!" Lu Yang shouted and turned the steering wheel sharply.

The car turned sharply and rushed into the alley, the tires rubbing against the ground with a sharp scream. Lu Yang quickly pulled out a grenade from his pocket. There were few people here, so there was no chance of accidentally injuring passersby.

"boom!"

The grenade exploded behind him, sending up a cloud of dust. Through the rearview mirror, Lu Yang watched as a courtyard wall collapsed, blocking the pursuers' path.

However, to Lu Yang's surprise, the spies abandoned their car and continued to chase him on foot.

"Why are these people from the northwest so persistent?" Lu Yang couldn't help but complain.

In a hurry, Lu Yang held the steering wheel with one hand and the gun with the other, opened the car window and fired a burst of shots at the rear.

"Bang bang bang!"

Bullets whizzed out, forcing the pursuers to seek cover, but they soon emerged and continued the pursuit.

Lu Yang gritted his teeth as the car weaved back and forth on the narrow streets. Xiao He clutched the seat tightly, his face pale.

"Turn right ahead!" Xiao He suddenly shouted.

Lu Yang turned the steering wheel without hesitation, and the car almost scraped past the corner of the wall. There was a loud bang behind him, and a chasing car crashed into the wall.

Just like that, after a thrilling chase, Lu Yang finally got rid of his pursuers. They arrived at a courtyard in the west of the city, which was Xiao He's safe house.

"You settle down here first," Lu Yang said, "I have to report to the Military Control Station."

Xiao He nodded, "Be careful."

Lu Yang took a rickshaw and came to the Military Control Station. However, to his surprise, no one in the entire Military Control Station paid any attention to him.

He walked to the sentry post and showed his ID: "I am Li Tiesheng, sent by the National Government."

The sentry took a quick glance and said coldly, "Oh. The stationmaster is not here. Find a place to sit by yourself."

Lu Yang was stunned. This treatment was too cold.

He could only call the people inside at the door, but after calling for a long time, no one knew him.

"That's enough," Lu Yang thought, "Since you don't want me, I don't care."

In desperation, Lu Yang decided to find a place to live first.

He wandered around the street and soon found an advertisement for a house to rent.

"Sir, do you want to rent a house?" A thin middle-aged man came up to me with a smile.

Lu Yang nodded: "Yes, is there anything suitable?"

The middle-aged man enthusiastically led Lu Yang through several alleys and came to a dilapidated house. "This is it. The environment is good and the price is cheap."

Lu Yang frowned. The house looked shaky. How could it be good? But he still followed in to take a look.

"Pay the deposit first," the middle-aged man held out his hand, "Ten dollars."

Just as Lu Yang was about to take out the money, he suddenly became alert.

He grabbed the middle-aged man's wrist and said, "Are you kidding me?"

The middle-aged man's face changed and he started to struggle: "You...what nonsense are you talking about? Let me go!"

Lu Yang sneered: "This house is not yours at all, right?"

After being exposed, the middle-aged man immediately knelt down and begged for mercy: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I just wanted to make some money... Please don't call the police..."

Lu Yang felt sorry for him and let go of his hand: "Go away, don't let me see you again."

The middle-aged man ran away as if he had been pardoned. Lu Yang shook his head and turned to leave.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps behind him. Lu Yang turned around and saw a group of hooligans walking towards him aggressively.

"It's this kid who dares to bully my brother!" The middle-aged man shouted from behind the crowd.

Lu Yang narrowed his eyes. It seemed like he had brought this upon himself. He flexed his wrist, a sneer forming on his lips: "Since you're looking for death, don't blame me for being rude."

The thugs gathered around him, laughing and brandishing clubs. Lu Yang stood still, as still as a mountain. Just as the first one reached him, he suddenly attacked.

"boom!"

A heavy punch hit the man's abdomen, and he immediately bent over and fell to the ground. The others were stunned for a moment, and then they all attacked him.

Lu Yang was agile, weaving through the crowd. Each of his strikes was incredibly accurate, either knocking someone down or severely injuring them. Despite their sheer numbers, the thugs couldn't even touch him.

In just a few minutes, the ground was covered with wailing figures. The remaining people retreated in fear and finally turned and ran away.

Lu Yang clapped his hands and looked at the trembling middle-aged man: "Why don't you get out of here?"

The middle-aged man was so scared that he ran away.

Lu Yang looked around and saw that the pedestrians on the street were staying away and looking at him with terrified eyes.

He sighed and thought that finding a house would take some time.

At this moment, an old man came over. He was dressed simply but looked energetic.

"Young man, you are quite skilled." The old man said with a smile.

Lu Yang looked at him warily: "Who are you?"

The old man waved his hand and said, “Don’t be nervous, I am a resident of this street.

I saw what happened just now. You helped us deal with these thugs. I have to thank you very much.

Lu Yang breathed a sigh of relief: "You're welcome, it's just a small favor."

"I heard you were looking for a house?" the old man asked. "I happen to have a place here. Would you like to take a look?"

Lu Yang hesitated for a moment, but seeing the old man's kind face, he nodded and agreed.

The old man led Lu Yang to a small courtyard. Although the courtyard was small, it was very clean. As soon as he entered the door, he could smell the faint fragrance of flowers.

"This is my spare house," the old man said. "If you like, you can live here. The rent is negotiable."

Lu Yang looked around, feeling very satisfied. He turned to the old man and said sincerely, "Thank you very much."

The old man smiled and waved his hand: "You're welcome. By the way, I don't know your name yet?"

"My name is Li Tiesheng." Lu Yang said.

"That's a good name." The old man nodded. "My surname is Wang, and my full name is Wang Sanmi."
