Chapter 385 So Enraged He Spit Blood

British Concession.

In a teahouse on the banks of the Huangpu River.

On the table in front of Ye Shaohong were two plates of dried fruit and a pot of melon slices.

He picked up his teacup and took a small sip.

Ding Deng Deng.

As footsteps sounded, an operations agent who had been by his side since his time at the Nanjing Special Service entered the private room.

"Captain, there's movement on the other side of the river."

Ye Shaohong raised an eyebrow and put down the teacup he had just taken a sip from. "How is it?"

"Are they all back?"

The field operative who came to deliver the message looked slightly gloomy. He shook his head before speaking.

"No."

"I only saw two boats!"

"On one of the boats, we also saw Li Yunlong, the deputy captain."

Ye Shaohong paused slightly in his teacup, then quickly resumed his normal posture.

He put down his teacup.

After a brief moment of contemplation, a soft sigh finally escaped.

"I see."

"Follow the original plan and escort them away."

"At the same time, notify Captain Chi Tiecheng to keep a close watch on the evacuees and proceed according to the plan!"

The sadness in his eyes faded, replaced by a cold, sharp light. He quietly clenched his fist, hidden in his sleeve, and made a decision without hesitation.

"Yes!"

The field operative showed no change in expression. After responding, he turned and left the private room.

Only after the footsteps faded into the distance did Ye Shaohong slowly close his eyes.

"Human resources are sometimes limited."

"No matter how meticulously I plan, if I lack sufficient resources, I still cannot control the overall situation."

"Three teams, thirteen people in total, how many will come back this time?"

Regardless of Ye Shaohong's current state of mind, as the person in power, he had long been mentally prepared. In times of war, human life is worthless.

As the one in charge of formulating the plan, he should have gotten used to it by now.

But seeing these passionate young men, under his arrangement, resolutely heading towards a desperate situation and bravely facing death, Ye Shaohong was able to pretend to be indifferent in front of his subordinates.

But how could his mind be at peace when he was alone?

not to mention…….

His subsequent plans will be even more cruel.

Apart from Li Yunlong, all the other survivors of this operation will eventually die quietly.

This is cruel.

But it was a choice made out of necessity.

"Bros."

"It's my fault, Ye Shaohong, that I've let you down..."

After muttering to himself, when Ye Shaohong raised his head again, the deep guilt in his eyes had completely disappeared.

He stood up.

I glanced down at the teacups and dried fruit on the table, then looked out the window at the Huangpu River.

Ye Shaohong turned and walked out of the private room, quickly disappearing into the crowd on the street.

……

French Concession.

Inside the Peace Hotel, Johnson Saxon sat in his executive chair, a cigar in one hand, waiting for the kidnappers' call.

Jingle Bell.

The phone rang, and Johnson Shaxun's eyes narrowed instantly.

A chill ran down his spine as he grinned.

"coming."

“I knew it, these kidnappers would call again.”

"They want to change the location of the ransom transaction."

"Hmph, this time, I will make them pay a bloody price. I will let everyone know that the Sha Xun family is not someone that anyone can mess with."

When a cold, muffled groan sounded, Johnson Saxon didn't rush to answer the phone. Instead, he looked up at the person in front of him.

"Everyone be prepared."

"Once the kidnappers inform me of the second transaction location, we will immediately begin the operation."

"Yes, patriarch!"

Several members of the Saxon family responded. Johnson Saxon tapped the ash that hadn't fallen from his burning cigar before leisurely picking up the still-ringing telephone.

“Hello, this is Johnson Shaxun.” “Chief, something terrible has happened…”

A series of urgent shouts rang out, and from the other end of the phone came the cries of those heading to the Japanese concession to deliver the ransom.

Subsequently.

He then recounted everything that had just happened to Johnson Shaxun.

Johnson was completely dumbfounded.

"what?"

"That's impossible..."

"How dare those kidnappers... how dare they do this..."

Inside the Peace Hotel, Johnson Saxon's face changed color several times, from pale as a Westerner to blood red, and finally to a bluish-black.

Then his body trembled, and he tilted his head back, spitting out a mouthful of scarlet blood.

"Money!" "Our money!"

"Where's the money bag we left at Ambassador Mitsui's and the sycophantic commander's doorsteps? Get it back right now!"

"Gone?"

"What did you say? The purse was confiscated by the Japanese concession's military police?"

"Damn it, take it back for me!"

With a furious roar, Johnson Sassoon slammed down the phone and dialed again.

"Get me to the office of Ambassador Mitsui at the Japanese Consulate in the Japanese Concession."

“I am Johnson Shaxun.”

“Ambassador Mitsui, I demand that you immediately return the money belonging to my Saxon family…”

"You bastard, Mitsui, that's my Saxon family's money, not yours. Do you want to take it for yourself? Do you want to go to war with my John Bull Empire and my Saxon family?" "You also have people who died? What does your death have to do with my Saxon family? You want us to take responsibility? Go to hell."

"You just wait, the Sha Xun family will not give up on this matter."

After hanging up the phone again, Johnson Sachs called the Japanese Garrison Command in the Japanese Concession.

He suffered a loss in silence at the hands of Ambassador Mitsui in the Japanese concession, and even wanted to contact the garrison commander of the Japanese concession to get back the lost ransom from him.

As a result, the commander of the Japanese garrison in the concession completely ignored him.

When the call was connected, only an adjutant from the garrison command responded.

The response was delivered in a formal, diplomatic style.

This infuriated Johnson Saxon.

"Asshole!"

“These Japanese devils are shameless.” “They are all greedy devils who dare to embezzle the money of my Sha Xun family. They must pay the price for it.”

After hanging up the phone, Johnson Saxon's eyes were bloodshot. He suddenly looked up at the several family members who were standing by in the office.

"Pass down my orders."

"Immediately issue a reward notice and spread it throughout Shanghai. My Sha Xun family is offering a reward of one million US dollars to track down the kidnappers."

"Furthermore, contact the mainland immediately. I need to speak with the Speaker of Parliament. These little devils from the East must be severely punished."

"Also, inform our shops throughout Asia to immediately cease all business dealings with the Japanese, and by the way, contact our allied families. I want those Japanese devils to pay the price..."
