Espionage: I became sworn brothers with Zheng Yaoxian at the beginning, and became the Seventh Broth

Chapter 462 Each with its own unique charm

"Concession police?"

"What are they doing here? Are they arresting Communists?"

"That shouldn't be the case. In present-day China, with the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War, the two parties have already begun a second round of cooperation."

"Without the Nationalist government's extradition request, the authorities in the concessions, although still searching for Communists, have reduced their efforts considerably. The Communists are poor and there's no money to be made from them, so the concession police have lost interest."

"That……."

Ye Shaohong glanced at him, his thoughts flashing like lightning, and then he turned to look at Zheng Yaoxian.

Zheng Yaoxian was also quick-witted. Noticing Ye Shaohong's probing gaze, he immediately responded by gently shaking his head. This was to tell Ye Shaohong that he knew nothing about the matter either.

Let's observe the situation from the sidelines first and then make a decision.

In the brief moment their eyes met, the two had already reached an understanding, and neither of them made any further moves as the police officers rushed into the dance hall like hungry wolves.

Like the other guests, they looked ahead with a hint of confusion and bewilderment.

As everyone waited, a figure appeared.

This man was not old, at most in his early twenties, but he had a rather unique temperament, somewhat dissolute, yet also carrying a touch of innocent stubbornness.

That's right.

He is Tie Lin, the second male lead in the spy drama "Red".

"Excuse me, everyone."

"We came here today with no intention of offending anyone, but we just received a report that someone was trading contraband in this dance hall." "So we came to see us."

Tie Lin is a decent person. Perhaps he's young and fearless, or maybe he's just starting out in the workplace and still retains his true nature, with a strong sense of protecting the environment and its people.

He entered the ballroom, first bowing to the numerous guests, and then began to explain.

Upon hearing his explanation, Ye Shaohong's narrowed eyes relaxed.

"Is it a coincidence?"

Ye Shaohong didn't know, but he was very clear about one thing: given the current situation, he couldn't act recklessly.

Thus, under Tie Lin's watchful eye, a dozen menacing French Concession police officers began a search operation targeting the guests in the dance hall.

In this era, although the separation of men and women was of paramount importance, the police did not include this principle.

When a dozen or so police officers from the French Concession began searching the dance hall patrons, some of the more cunning ones deliberately started harassing the female patrons.

When they started fighting, they were often offensive.

Most people would just put up with it when faced with the police.

However, there are a few exceptions who simply don't tolerate these low-ranking police officers.

Take Blue Rouge, for example.

The Lan family wielded considerable influence in the French Concession, which fostered Lan Yanzhi's unruly and spoiled temperament from a young age. In addition, she was naturally quirky and somewhat cynical.

Lan Yanzhi was already furious when she saw the police officers harassing the female customer, groping her without restraint.

When a constable walked up to her and began to look her up and down, the anger deep in Lan Yanzhi's eyes grew even more frenzied.

"What are you looking at?"

"Look again, and believe me, I'll gouge out your dog eyes!" Her almond-shaped eyes widened, her brows furrowed with malice, and coupled with Lan Yanzhi's already stunning beauty and the air of elegance cultivated by her wealthy family, she truly possessed a unique charm.

Um…….

That's quite intimidating.

This immediately stunned the foreign police officers who were about to search Lan Yanzhi, and their raised hands froze in mid-air.

They were frightened.

As for the scene often depicted in TV dramas where someone retaliates on the spot after being insulted, that's simply impossible.

There aren't that many idiots in real life.

What kind of society is Shanghai today? To put it simply, it's darker and more brutal than the Freedom of the Bald Eagle of later generations, with gunfights every day being even more terrifying and bloody.

The wealthy enjoy high positions and wield privileges; the police are merely their henchmen. "Little...little..."

"You little brat."

"You dare say those two words out loud and see what happens? Believe me, I'll slap you across the face!"

Lan Yanzhi glared at him, instantly putting the originally fierce-looking policeman into an awkward and helpless situation.

"Miss!"

"Please cooperate with our operation."

Seeing his companion being blamed, Tie Lin immediately stepped forward. He stood in front of Lan Yanzhi, carefully observed and examined her before frowning and responding.

"Humph!"

"If you're going to cooperate, then cooperate. Just keep your hands clean."

Tie Lin's persuasion and tactful manner slightly eased the anger on Lan Yanzhi's face, but even so, she still retained a bit of her spoiled and willful air.

This scene caught the attention of Ye Shaohong and Zheng Yaoxian, who were standing nearby, causing them to widen their eyes in astonishment.

"What a fiery little firecracker."

"Seventh brother, it's good that you haven't gotten into any trouble with her, otherwise, I would really be worried about whether you could subdue her."

Zheng Yaoxian pursed his lips, took a small sip of his iced rum, and shook his head, chuckling as he teased Ye Shaohong.

"It's a good seedling."

Ye Shaohong smiled but did not respond to Zheng Yaoxian. His gaze remained fixed on Tie Lin.

Ye Shaohong had not forgotten what Xu Tian had told him.

Tie Lin's father, Lao Tie, was a very mysterious man. He had originally wanted to find an opportunity to get closer and observe him to confirm his suspicions.

He's just been too busy these past few days and hasn't been able to find the time.

Just right now.

By observing Tie Lin, Ye Shaohong believed he could make some guesses about Lao Tie's identity.

"Oh?"

"Are you talking about the woman or the man?"

Zheng Yaoxian was puzzled by Ye Shaohong's response, and he couldn't help but observe and scrutinize Lan Yanzhi and Tie Lin on the dance floor.

After a while.

Zheng Yaoxian nodded slowly.

"good."

"You have a keen eye; both of them do have very good temperaments."

"One appears arrogant and domineering, but in reality, his behavior is just right; the other appears humble and courteous, but in reality, he harbors a sharp edge."

"They are all rare gems."

The two of them spoke to each other, yet their words formed a perfect closed loop, so that even if someone overheard them, they wouldn't notice the slightest error.

While the two of them were talking, Tie Lin had already personally taken charge and, with a gentlemanly attitude, inspected Lan Yanzhi's clothes and handbag.

Subsequently.

Tie Lin's gaze swept across the room and landed on Ye Shaohong and Zheng Yaoxian.

Seeing the two of them leaning against the bar, quietly sipping their drinks and observing, Tie Lin frowned. For some reason, he took a step and walked towards Ye Shaohong and Zheng Yaoxian.

"Excuse me, gentlemen."

"Please show your identification and explain when you arrived here and what your purpose is!"
