Chapter 649 Mysterious Phone Call

Li Yunlong was indeed a little confused.

In his view, Ye Shaohong's decision to put him in charge of investigating the attack on the Party Affairs Investigation Department was clearly a waste of time and effort.

Are you suggesting we let him catch himself?

Furthermore, Ye Shaohong just revealed that this case had already been reported to the Jinling headquarters several days ago.

Director Dai Yunong had already made his instructions.

But Ye Shaohong, for some reason, deliberately dragged it out for a few days before finally handing the case back to him.

There's definitely something wrong here. There's something he doesn't know about involved.

Li Yunlong wanted to find out, but the difference in status between him and Ye Shaohong was too great, and he knew Ye Shaohong's temperament well, so he naturally wouldn't bother.

He provoked Ye Shaohong's annoyance.

"If I told you to investigate, then you should investigate. Why all the nonsense?"

"Remember, make a big fuss during the investigation."

"But don't let people easily know our purpose."

Ye Shaohong glared at Li Yunlong with annoyance, but finally stated his request.

"alright."

"I'll do as the station chief says. I'll arrange for people to investigate this matter right away."

Li Yunlong shrugged, accepting the task. "Nonsense."

"I specifically asked you to take charge of this matter personally. When did I say that I was asking you to assign someone else to handle it?"

"Li Yunlong, I think you're itching for a beating, aren't you?"

Ye Shaohong slammed his hand on the table, a cold expression appearing on his face.

Immediately.

Li Yunlong's smile froze on his face.

"Stationmaster, please calm down, I was wrong."

"I will personally take charge of this matter."

"Go right away!"

Li Yunlong shouted anxiously, apologizing and softening his stance with lightning speed, which showed that Ye Shaohong still held considerable sway over him.

"get out!"

Ye Shaohong waved his hand, not looking at Li Yunlong again. After sitting down, he picked up a document from the table and began to look it up.

Li Yunlong was also quite sensible. After obediently nodding and bowing a few times, he slowly withdrew from Ye Shaohong's room.

……

The next morning.

Ye Shaohong was processing documents in his office when the telephone on his desk rang.

Picking up the receiver of the old-fashioned rotary telephone, a familiar voice reached Ye Shaohong's ears.

"Hello, is this Station Master Ye?"

Upon hearing this voice, Ye Shaohong immediately frowned.

He was certain he had heard that voice somewhere before, but he couldn't immediately recall who it was.

Judging from the man's use of his title, this person must know him. This piqued Ye Shaohong's curiosity even further.

"I am Ye Shaohong."

"Excuse me, who are you?"

After a brief moment of contemplation, Ye Shaohong finally spoke up and asked the question that had been bothering him.

"who am I?"

"Hehe~!"

"Station Chief Ye, you really have a bad memory. Have you forgotten the military vehicle you robbed on Changhe Road in Nanjing last month?"

Do you remember that young man you pointed a gun at your head?

Upon hearing this, Ye Shaohong instantly realized what had happened.

That's right.

He remembered this incident very clearly. At that time, Ye Shaohong was ordered to return to Nanjing and, under Dai Yunong's command, was responsible for investigating a major leak of secrets by the General Staff.

During the investigation of the hidden Japanese spies within the staff, Ye Shaohong, due to a shortage of manpower, also sent Yu Manli out.

Yu Manli was put in charge of investigating the commander's adjutant at the Nanjing City River Defense Command.

It was also because of this operation that Yu Manli almost lost her life.

When Ye Shaohong realized what was happening, he was almost going crazy. The only thing on his mind was to save Yu Manli.

While on his way to the river defense headquarters, he intercepted a military vehicle that happened to be passing by on the road in Nanjing.

They even pointed a gun at the head of the military vehicle owner.

After this incident, Yu Manli was hospitalized due to serious injuries, and Ye Shaohong was also responsible for investigating the Shan Hai intelligence team.

He was so busy that he forgot about the matter and the person. It was only when Xu Baichuan and Zheng Yaoxian brought it up that Ye Shaohong remembered it. However, by then, Xu Baichuan had already resolved the problem.

He stopped paying attention to it.

I don't want to.

He has now been transferred to Jiangcheng, and at this crucial moment, he received a call from the owner of the military vehicle.

Speaking of this matter, upon closer examination, Ye Shaohong still felt somewhat guilty and apologetic.

Therefore, upon learning the other party's identity, the look of doubt on his face instantly vanished, and his cold expression also seemed to dissipate somewhat.

"It turns out to be you."

"terribly sorry."

"I admit I was wrong about what happened last time, and I sincerely apologize to you." "If you require compensation, I will try my best to fulfill it to the best of my ability!"

Ye Shaohong is still able to be frank about his mistakes.

He also lacked the narrow-mindedness of those in power.

When he apologized, it was with great sincerity. His words left the young man on the other end of the phone stunned.

"what!"

"I never expected that Station Chief Ye would apologize to someone."

"Alright, since you were sincere, I'll forgive you and let it go."

"but……."

"But what?" Ye Shaohong raised an eyebrow, asking with a hint of doubt. "Station Chief Ye, don't be in such a hurry."

"Since I've already said that this matter is over, I certainly won't use it to make things difficult for you again."

"I just happened to be in Jiangcheng on official business these past few days, and I suddenly thought of you. We've become acquainted through a bit of a misunderstanding. I wonder if Station Chief Ye has the time to do me the honor of meeting me?"

"How about we have a simple meal together?"

The young man on the other end of the phone was well-mannered and had a gentle manner. His casual request was something Ye Shaohong couldn't refuse.

"it is good!"

"How about tonight?"

"I should have time after get off work tonight. You can choose the place to meet, and I will be on time."

Thus, their conversation came to an end.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Shaohong couldn't help but think back to the matter. He carefully considered it in his mind several times, feeling that it had come too suddenly.

It has a somewhat eerie feel to it.

Thinking of this, Ye Shaohong picked up the old-fashioned rotary telephone on the table again and dialed directly into the communications department of Jiangcheng Station.

He asked the communications staff to investigate where the call that had just come in to his office had come from.

Since the other party said that he came to Jiangcheng on official business a few days ago, his whereabouts should be able to be investigated.

as predicted.

When the staff of the Jiangcheng Station Communications Department reported the final investigation results to Ye Shaohong, Ye Shaohong's eyes immediately narrowed.

Yan Hui Lou.

The phone call that just came into his office actually originated from inside Yan Hui Lou. Yan Hui Lou is a secret hideout of the Party Affairs Investigation Department.

It was also the place where the eldest son of the Kong family settled down.

Yesterday, Ye Shaohong even arranged for someone to go to the Jiangcheng City Telephone Bureau to have the operators in the program control department pay attention to the external calls at Guoyan Huilou.

In less than a day, the people inside Yan Hui Lou already knew about these things.

They even used his past misdeeds in Nanjing as a pretext to call his office.

Ye Shaohong certainly wouldn't believe it was a coincidence.

Since it's not a coincidence, then this is interesting.
