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

Chapter 718 Dirty Deal

After joking around with Ma Yunfei for a while, Yu Manli arrived upon hearing the news.

Upon seeing the bandages wrapped around Ye Shaohong's arm, Yu Manli's eyes immediately reddened.

She rushed over with great concern, anxiously inquiring about Ye Shaohong's injuries. Only after receiving confirmation did Yu Manli feel a little relieved.

Yu Manli's hands roaming over Ye Shaohong's body ignited a burning desire within him.

When no one was looking, Ye Shaohong raised his hand and gently pinched Yu Manli's pert buttocks.

He immediately drew a cold glare from Yu Manli.

"Even after all this, you still won't behave!" "I think you're only lightly injured!"

Ye Shaohong was not annoyed by Yu Manli's seemingly reproachful words; on the contrary, he found them quite amusing.

He turned slightly to the side, pressed his body close to Yu Manli's ear, breathed warm air from his mouth, and slowly opened his mouth to speak.

"Even if my arm is injured, it won't stop us from getting things done!"

"You can be on top!"

"How about we give it a try tonight when we get back?"

Although they were an old married couple, Yu Manli blushed immediately when she heard Ye Shaohong's blatant flirting.

Yu Manli immediately raised her hand and pinched Ye Shaohong hard.

Amidst Ye Shaohong's cries of pain, the other woman finally released her grip, her expression a mixture of pity and dissatisfaction.

"You bastard!" "Are you trying to kill me?"

The two were flirting unabashedly in the empty room when suddenly, someone knocked on the closed door from the outside.

Ye Shaohong frowned, and Yu Manli took the opportunity to get up and break free from Ye Shaohong's control.

"Come in!"

The person who entered the room was an employee of the intelligence section of the Special Service's Shancheng Station.

During this period, the Special Service Department's Shancheng Station had been fully cooperating with Ye Shaohong's case-solving operations, so Ye Shaohong had some impression of some of the people in the Special Service Department's Shancheng Station.

Upon seeing this person enter, he immediately realized that something must have happened. Otherwise, the people from the Special Service's Shancheng Station would not have come looking for him on their own initiative.

"Commissioner Ye!"

"Major General Zhang from the Second Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense just called. He seems to have something urgent and wants to speak with you!" Sure enough.

The moment that thought crossed Ye Shaohong's mind, trouble came knocking on his door.

Major General Zhang from the Second Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense?

Could it be that something new has happened with Huang Yi?

With his mind making a guess, Ye Shaohong nodded in agreement. He first gave Yu Manli a few simple instructions, telling her not to leave in a hurry.

After he finishes his call with Major General Zhang, he will return immediately unless there are any unforeseen circumstances.

They will go home together then.

After parting ways with Yu Manli, Ye Shaohong went directly to the office building of the Special Service Department's Shancheng Station.

I went into his temporary office.

Ye Shaohong picked up the red encrypted phone on the table and dialed it directly. Soon, Major General Zhang's excited voice came through the phone.

"Shao Hong, I heard you've uncovered another Japanese intelligence group?"

"How was the harvest?"

"Did you find the Japanese radio and codebook?"

Strangely, when Major General Zhang called, he didn't inform Ye Shaohong about Huang Yi's situation. Instead, he first asked about Ye Shaohong's gains.

This matter is somewhat eerie.

Ye Shaohong couldn't understand it, so he didn't hide it. Anyway, all these things would be written down truthfully in the final case report and submitted to the Second Department of the Ministry of National Defense.

Major General Zhang will see it sooner or later.

So Ye Shaohong recounted the whole story in detail.

To be honest, they had a good haul this time. Not only did they capture Ouyang Hui, but they also caught five other people from Chi Tiecheng's group.

While searching Ouyang Hui's hiding place, Gao Han also found Ouyang Hui's intelligence team's radio and codebook in a hidden compartment of the wardrobe in the room.

They also found seven large yellow croakers and more than a dozen small yellow croakers.

Aside from handing over a portion of these items, the rest were privately divided between him, Ma Yunfei, and Gao Han.

This at least slightly made up for his nearly depleted savings.

After listening to Ye Shaohong's report and learning about his achievements, Major General Zhang on the other end of the phone clearly showed envy.

Only then did Ye Shaohong learn the real reason why Major General Zhang had called.

Huang Yi is dead.

Under the close surveillance of professional agents from the Second Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense, he suddenly died in a teahouse at noon today. Upon hearing this news, Ye Shaohong was initially stunned.

Immediately, anger surged up.

What's going on?

I was busy outside, painstakingly capturing Japanese spies, when the Second Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense brought him this news.

That's disgusting.

However, Ye Shaohong soon realized that something was wrong.

why?

Because when he answered the phone, he could clearly sense that Major General Zhang on the other end was in a very good mood.

If Huang Yi's death should be considered a bad thing, then where did Major General Zhang's good mood come from?

There must be other things he doesn't know about.

After a brief moment of thought, Ye Shaohong roughly understood. "Huang Yi is dead?"

"Which of our Minister Li did this?"

The Minister Li that Ye Shaohong mentioned is no ordinary man; he is the leader of the Guangxi Clique and the supreme commander of the hundreds of thousands of Wolf Army soldiers.

At the same time, he was also a first-class general in the Nationalist Army.

He was also the highest-ranking military officer appointed by the Nationalist government for the Battle of Xuzhou.

In the future, he also briefly ousted the bald-headed Chairman from the presidential throne and became the highest-ranking person in the Republic of China government.

During the previous investigation, Ye Shaohong already knew Huang Yi's identity and background.

Huang Yi's backer is Minister Li.

Then Ye Shaohong remembered the phone call Dai Yunong had made to him yesterday morning.

During the phone call, Dai Yunong told Ye Shaohong that he and the bald-headed chairman had discussed their action plan and were preparing to take action against Minister Li and the Guangxi clique he represented.

Have Dai Yunong and the bald-headed chairman already taken action?

Has their deal been finalized?

Was Huang Yi's death a result of Minister Li eliminating internal troubles, or a bargaining chip thrown out by Dai Yunong and the bald-headed chairman?

Judging from Major General Zhang's attitude just now, it should be the latter.

What did Dai Yunong and the bald-headed chairman exchange with Minister Li through Huang Yi?

Positions in key departments?

There should also be clues and intelligence in Huang Yi's possession.

Otherwise, Major General Zhang wouldn't be so overjoyed.

"Ha ha!"

"I knew I couldn't hide this from you!"

"That's right, Huang Yi is dead, but before he died, he confessed everything he knew truthfully."

"Based on his confession, we secretly arrested four more moles in three key locations of the Nationalist government: the Second Department of the Ministry of National Defense, the General Staff Headquarters, and the Attendant's Office!"

"Shao Hong, we have completely cracked the case of the leaked military plans for the Battle of Xuzhou!"
