Spy war in the Republic of China, peak undercover

Lu Yang took out his pistol, opened the safety skillfully, and loaded the bullet with a "click".

Pointing the gun at the fat man, he said with a smile: "Do you want your hand or your life?"

The fat man with the gold chain was so scared that he peed his pants instantly. He was trembling all over. There was a large wet spot on his crotch and a foul smell spread everywhere.

"I...I want my life...I want my life."

Lu Yang turned around and looked at the thugs: "What are you still standing there for? Send your boss to the hospital."

The thugs finally reacted and rushed over to help the fat man with the gold chain and ran outside.

"Wait." Lu Yang stopped them.

Several thugs shuddered with fear, stopped immediately, turned around, and looked at Lu Yang with fear on their faces.

"The bill hasn't been settled yet." Lu Yang said.

"Pay the bill?" Several thugs were stunned.

"Yes," Lu Yang said, "According to the rules of the casino, if you win money, you have to give some tips, right?"

"This..." Several thugs looked at each other, not knowing what to do.

"What? You want to default on your debt?" Lu Yang's eyes turned cold.

"No... I dare not..." a thug said quickly, then took out a stack of banknotes from his pocket and handed it to Lu Yang.

Lu Yang took the money and threw it directly to the dealer without counting it. "This is your reward."

"Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!" The dealer said with a nod and a bow. It was the first time he had seen a customer who was so generous.

"Let's go." Lu Yang said to Qinglan, then took Xiaohe and Xiaojiang and walked out of the casino.

"Lu Yang," Qing Lan followed behind Lu Yang and asked in a low voice, "You...you really..."

"Don't worry," Lu Yang said, "I won't kill him. I'm just trying to scare him."

"That's good." Qinglan breathed a sigh of relief.

"However, this guy is not a good person either," Lu Yang said, "I guess he can't save his arm."

"Why?" Qinglan asked.

"Because he provoked me." Lu Yang said lightly.

"..." Qinglan was silent. She suddenly realized that she still didn't know Lu Yang well enough.

This man is like a mystery. You can never guess what he is thinking or what he will do.

However, there is one thing Qinglan can be sure of, that is, Lu Yang is definitely not a simple person.

He is like a sword hidden in a sheath. He looks ordinary at ordinary times, but once he is unsheathed, he will show his sharp edge and be invincible!

And now, this sword has been unsheathed!

"Where are we going now?" Qinglan asked.

"Let's go to a place we should go." Lu Yang said, then he stopped a rickshaw and said, "Let's get in!"

……

As night falls, the largest nightclub in Jiangcheng, the Paramount, is still brightly lit with singing and dancing.

This is a den of brothel, a place of pleasure, and a paradise for dignitaries and elegant scholars to seek pleasure.

Lu Yang brought Qinglan, Xiaohe and Xiaojiang into the Paramount.

"Sir, Madam, how many people are there?" The waiter at the door came forward enthusiastically.

"Four," Lu Yang said. He then took out a bill from his pocket and stuffed it into the waiter's hand. "Find us a quieter private room."

"Okay!" The waiter took the money and smiled even brighter. "Follow me."

The waiter led Lu Yang and the others through the noisy hall to a quiet private room.

"Please take a seat," the waiter said. "If you need anything, please let me know."

"Yes." Lu Yang nodded, "Go, bring me the best wine and the best dishes you have here."

"Okay!" the waiter responded and turned to leave.

"Lu Yang, what are you doing?" Qing Lan asked in confusion, "Aren't we here to look for the Crow?"

"I know." Lu Yang said, "But we can't go to him on an empty stomach, right?"

"But..." Qinglan wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Lu Yang.

"Don't worry," Lu Yang said, "I have my own arrangements."

"Okay." Qinglan nodded. Now, she could only choose to believe Lu Yang.

After a while, the food and wine arrived, filling the entire table.

"Come, try this." Lu Yang picked up the chopsticks, picked up a piece of braised pork and put it in the blue bowl.

"I don't eat fatty meat." Qinglan said.

"This isn't just any ordinary braised pork," Lu Yang said. "This is the Paramount's signature dish, the 'Twelve Beauties of Jinling'. Try it."

"'The Twelve Beauties of Jinling'?" Qinglan was stunned. "What kind of dish is this?"

"You'll know if you try it." Lu Yang smiled mysteriously.

Qinglan picked up the braised pork hesitantly and put it into his mouth.

"Hmm?" Qinglan's eyes lit up. "What...what does this taste like? Why is it so delicious?"

"How about it? I didn't lie to you, did I?" Lu Yang smiled proudly.

"What kind of dish is this?" Qinglan asked.

"Want to know?" Lu Yang asked.

"Yeah." Qinglan nodded.

"I won't tell you." Lu Yang said with a wicked smile.

"You!" Qinglan stamped her feet in anger. "It's fine if you don't tell me, but I don't even want to know." As she spoke, she picked up another piece of braised pork and put it in her mouth. "It smells so good!"

Looking at Qinglan's expression, Lu Yang couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Uncle Lu, I want to eat too." Xiaohe and Xiaojiang looked at the dishes on the table, their mouths watering.

"Eat, eat." Lu Yang said, "Today, there's enough for you."

So the four of them started to feast on the food.

After eating and drinking, Lu Yang called the waiter to pay the bill.

"How much is it in total?" Lu Yang asked.

"Thank you, eighty-eight dollars," said the waiter.

"So expensive?" Xiaohe and Xiaojiang were shocked.

"It's okay," Lu Yang smiled, took out a wad of bills from his pocket, and without counting them, threw them directly to the waiter, "No need to change."

"Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!" The waiter took the money and said with a nod.

"Let's go." Lu Yang said, and then walked out of the private room with Qinglan, Xiaohe and Xiaojiang.

When we arrived at the hall, we saw pairs of men and women dancing gracefully on the dance floor. The area around the dance floor was filled with spectators, who burst into cheers from time to time.

"Let's go dancing too." Lu Yang said.

"Dancing?" Qinglan was stunned. "Here?"

"Yeah," Lu Yang said, "If you don't dance at a nightclub, what are you doing here?"

"But... I don't know how to dance." Qinglan said.

"It's okay, I'll teach you." Lu Yang said, took Qinglan's hand and walked into the dance floor.

"Lu Yang..." Qinglan wanted to say something but was interrupted by Lu Yang.

"Relax," Lu Yang said, "Follow my pace, and you will learn it soon."

As he said that, he put his arms around Qinglan's waist and started jumping.

Qinglan's body was a little stiff, but she still tried hard to follow Lu Yang's rhythm. Slowly, she relaxed and her dance steps became smoother.

"Look, you dance very well." Lu Yang said with a smile.

"Really?" Qinglan asked unconfidently.

"Of course it's true," Lu Yang said, "You are very talented and learn things quickly."

"Thank you." A smile appeared on Qinglan's face.

The two danced gracefully on the dance floor and became the focus of everyone's attention.

Xiaohe and Xiaojiang sat on the edge of the dance floor, eating snacks and watching Lu Yang and Qinglan dancing, with envious expressions on their faces.

"Sister, what is the relationship between Uncle Lu and Sister Qinglan?" Xiao Jiang asked.

"How would I know?" Xiao He said, "But I hope they can be together."

"Why?" Xiao Jiang asked.

"Because Uncle Lu is a good man, and Sister Qinglan is also a good person," Xiaohe said, "good people should be together."

"Yeah." Xiao Jiang nodded, "I also hope they can be together."

……

"Lu Yang, what exactly do you want to do?" Qing Lan asked while dancing.

"Wait." Lu Yang said.

"What are you waiting for?" Qinglan asked.

"Wait for the 'crow' to appear." Lu Yang said.

"He will come here?" Qinglan asked in surprise.

"Yes," Lu Yang said, "because he has no choice."

"Why?" Qinglan was puzzled.

"Because the 'Mole' has fallen into our hands, he must come to rescue him." Lu Yang said, "Otherwise, he will be finished."

"But how did he know we were here?" Qinglan asked.

"He will," Lu Yang said, "He must have a way to know."

"How can you be so sure?" Qinglan asked.

"Because he is a 'crow,'" Lu Yang said. "The 'crow,' is the most cunning bird."

"So what we have to do now is to act as bait?" Qinglan asked.

"Yes," Lu Yang nodded, "We are the bait, and the best bait."

"But this is too dangerous," Qinglan said. "What if the Crow doesn't come? Or, if he comes, we can't catch him?"

"No," Lu Yang said, "He will definitely come, and we will definitely catch him."

"Why are you so sure?" Qinglan asked.

"Because I understand him," Lu Yang said, "I understand Crow, just like he understands me."

"You...you know 'Raven'?" Qinglan asked in surprise.

"I know him," Lu Yang said, "and I know him very well."

"Who is he?" Qinglan asked.

"He is..." Lu Yang was about to say the name, but suddenly, his face changed, "Be careful!"

As he spoke, he suddenly pushed Qinglan aside, and at the same time, his own body also flashed to the side.

"Bang!" A gunshot rang out, and a bullet flew past Lu Yang's body and hit the crystal chandelier in the center of the dance floor.

"Ah!" A terrified scream suddenly rang out from the crowd. People fled in all directions and the scene was in chaos.

"Over there!" Lu Yang pointed in a direction and said, "Chase!" As he said that, he pulled Qinglan up and chased in that direction.

Xiaohe and Xiaojiang also hurried to follow.

The four men made their way through the chaotic crowd and arrived at the back door of the Paramount.

"They ran away from here." Lu Yang said, "Let's chase them!"

As he said that, he pushed open the back door and rushed out.

Qinglan, Xiaohe and Xiaojiang also rushed out immediately.

The four of them came to the alley behind the Paramount.

"Where are they?" Qinglan asked.

"Search separately!" Lu Yang said, "Remember, be careful!"

"Yes!" Xiaohe and Xiaojiang responded, then ran in two different directions.

"Let's go too." Lu Yang said to Qinglan, then pulled her and ran in another direction.

Four people shuttled through the alleys, looking for traces of the "crow".

Suddenly, Lu Yang stopped. "Wait," he said, "Listen, what's that sound?"

Qinglan, Xiaohe and Xiaojiang also stopped and listened attentively.

"It seems... it's the sound of a car." Qinglan said.

"That's right," Lu Yang nodded, "and there are more than one."

"They want to run away!" Xiaohe said.

"Chase!" Lu Yang said, then took the lead and ran in the direction where the sound came from.

The four of them ran out of the alley and onto the street, where they saw several black cars speeding along the street.

"Quick! Get in the car!" Lu Yang shouted, then stopped a rickshaw, "Quick! Catch up with the car in front!"

"Okay!" the driver responded, then stepped on the pedal hard, and the rickshaw moved forward quickly.

Qinglan, Xiaohe and Xiaojiang also got on several rickshaws and followed Lu Yang closely.

"Hurry! Faster!" Lu Yang urged the driver.

"Boss, we're already going fast," the driver said, panting. "If we go any faster, I'll die of exhaustion."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Lu Yang took out a stack of bills from his pocket, "These are all yours!"

"Okay!" The driver became excited when he saw so much money. "Hold on tight!" As he said that, he stepped on the pedal harder, and the rickshaw flew out like an arrow.

Several rickshaws started chasing each other on the street, and soon they caught up with the black cars.

"Lu Yang, what should we do?" Qing Lan asked, "How can we make them stop?"

"I have a way." Lu Yang said, took out a pistol from his arms and aimed at the tire of a car in front.

"Bang!" With a gunshot, the car's tire was blown out, the car body tilted and hit the electric pole on the side of the road.

"Good marksmanship!" Qinglan exclaimed.

"It's nothing." Lu Yang smiled, then he aimed at another car.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!" After several consecutive gunshots, the cars all stopped, either with their tires blown out or their fuel tanks punctured.

"Get off!" Lu Yang shouted, then jumped off the rickshaw and ran towards the cars.

Qinglan, Xiaohe and Xiaojiang also quickly jumped out of the car and ran over after Lu Yang.

More than a dozen people got out of several cars one after another. They were all wearing black suits, sunglasses, holding guns in their hands, and looked ferocious.

"Who are you?" asked a leading man in black, "Why are you stopping us?"

"It doesn't matter who we are," Lu Yang said. "What matters is that you all must die today!"

"Die?" The leading man in black sneered, "Just you few?"

"And us!" Suddenly, a group of people rushed out from all directions. They were all in plain clothes, holding various weapons in their hands. Some were guns, some were knives, some were sticks, and some were even holding kitchen knives and axes...

These people are all residents of Jiangcheng. When they heard that Lu Yang was fighting the Japanese here, they all came to support him spontaneously.

"You...what do you want to do?" The leading man in black looked at the crowd around him and his face turned pale.

"What for?" Lu Yang said coldly, "Of course... to send you off!"
