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

Chapter 963 The Dead

Commander Chen Cheng personally selected Ye Shaohong, who had no reason to refuse.

He couldn't refuse either.

Whether it's repaying a favor or maintaining a relationship, Ye Shaohong has to agree.

He did the same.

After receiving a positive reply from Ye Shaohong, Chang Botao smiled with satisfaction.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Shaohong got up and went to Dai Yunong's office.

He reported the contents of the phone call he had just received.

Dai Yunong appeared surprised. Clearly.

He hadn't expected that the relationship between Ye Shaohong and Commander Chen Cheng was so deep.

Even as the director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, he had never been able to get involved in what happened within the core military forces of the Civil Engineering Department.

Now, Commander Chen Cheng has actually sent Ye Shaohong to investigate.

Even Dai Yunong himself envied this relationship.

Naturally, they wouldn't prevent or refuse.

"In that case, Shao Hong, you'll have to make the trip."

"In the meantime, you can focus on this matter and make sure you complete the task assigned to you by Commander Chen."

"If you ever need to use our Military Intelligence Bureau, don't hesitate to let me know. You can use their intelligence channels and personnel to your heart's content!" "Yes, Director!"

With Dai Yunong's permission, Ye Shaohong began to take action.

He had already reassigned Chi Tiecheng, Su Wenqian, and the Jellyfish Assassination Group, so now the only person he could use was Li Yunlong.

Of course.

This does not mean that Ye Shaohong has no other subordinates.

Rather, it means that among the trusted men he can currently mobilize, only Li Yunlong is the one he feels most comfortable using.

In addition, he also summoned Xu Zhongyi and Li Yunfei.

After the three of them gathered, they also called their driver, Du Yu. The four of them, traveling light and without any other staff members, left the mountain city together.

We went to the camp along the Yangtze River where the 11th Division was temporarily reorganizing and resting. They were truly reorganizing and resting.

Because in the near future, this 11th Division will be transferred to the front line again, ready to be deployed to the Changsha battlefield.

Perhaps it was because of the urgency of the mission that Chen Cheng allowed Ye Shaohong, an outsider, to interfere in the internal affairs of the 11th Division.

The vehicle sped along, and it took more than two hours to reach the 11th Division's garrison.

Chang Botao was already waiting at the entrance of the camp for Ye Shaohong to arrive.

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, Chang Botao led Ye Shaohong and the others into the division headquarters.

He then recounted the events of the case to them.

They also sent a lot of archival materials.

It was only then that Ye Shaohong truly understood the identity of the deceased: Bayin.

Mongolian people.

He was not only a member of the Mongol royal family, but also the savior of Commander Chen Cheng, having once taken a bullet for Commander Chen on the battlefield.

It was this shot that made Bayin a confidant of Commander Chen.

Gradually, he became the quartermaster of the 11th Division, a lucrative and powerful position in the eyes of outsiders.

This doesn't quite match what Chang Botao said on the phone.

Ye Shaohong was very puzzled.

Then he asked again, and Chang Botao didn't hide anything. He then talked about Bayin's network of connections.

It turned out that after Bayin became a member of the Civil Engineering faction, he unexpectedly met the commander of the Provisional 27th Division, who was also a member of the 11th Army.

He was also a member of the Civil Engineering Department. After the two met, Bayin introduced his younger sister to the commander of the Provisional 27th Division.

She became the third concubine of the commander of the 27th Division.

Such things were very common in the Nationalist government's military.

No one could find fault with it.

Chang Botao didn't mention this matter earlier because he felt that this situation shouldn't be too related to the Bayin case.

Moreover, Ye Shaohong brought outsiders with him.

Therefore, he simply did not bring up the matter of marriage alliances within the civil engineering department.

"I see!"

"Commander Chang, don't worry. As long as it's not related to the case, we won't bother anyone."

"Now, can we go to the crime scene and take a look?"

With his doubts resolved, Ye Shaohong got down to business and prepared to take immediate action.

"of course."

"I'll take you there now."

"Director Bayinba's private residence is not far from the division headquarters. It will only take us ten minutes or so to walk there."

It's clear that Chang Botao cares a lot about this matter.

Otherwise, a major general and deputy division commander like him wouldn't have personally acted as a guide, much less put aside his work to specifically take Ye Shaohong to understand the case.

And so, they left the 11th Division's garrison together.

After wandering through the streets and alleys of the dock, we finally arrived at the door of a villa with a Bavarian style.

"This is the scene of the crime."

“After the incident, I arranged for people to guard this place closely and prevent outsiders from breaking in!” “I’ll go and give them a heads-up first, to avoid any misunderstandings.”

Chang Botao first explained to Ye Shaohong, then stepped to the villa entrance and shouted loudly.

He called out for a long time, but no one responded.

Ye Shaohong immediately raised his eyebrows.

"Yunlong, go and take a look."

"Okay, Seventh Brother!"

Li Yunlong moved quickly; he ran over in a few steps, flipped over, and jumped into the villa's courtyard.

Then, Li Yunlong's shouts came from inside.

"Seventh Brother, something terrible has happened! All the guards inside are dead!"

"Ok?"

"Open the door and let us in!"

The sudden turn of events gave Ye Shaohong a bad feeling, and he called out. Li Yunlong immediately opened the villa door from the inside.

The moment the gate opened, Ye Shaohong saw four corpses lying across the road ahead.

These four men were all wearing military uniforms.

They were also holding weapons.

But they seemed to die very suddenly, and when they died, the weapons in their hands were still gripped with both hands.

It wasn't the way he normally held a gun.

What confirmed Ye Shaohong's suspicions even more was that the four people had a look of surprise on their faces when they died.

"Get in!"

"Let's check what's going on inside."

After briefly examining the appearance of the four deceased, Ye Shaohong didn't rest and issued another order.

Li Yunfei was in charge of this operation.

With a few leaps, he arrived at the villa's entrance, and with a push, the villa door opened.

Four more corpses were revealed.

They were all killed by having their throats slit, and they didn't have time to fire a shot before they died.

This is the work of a master.

The 11th Division was where Commander Chen Cheng rose to power and was also an elite force of the Nationalist government. Its personnel strength was far superior to that of local security regiments and miscellaneous local troops.

Their training is just as rigorous as that of contemporary European and American countries.

Even so, the people inside the villa died silently, indicating that the matter was serious.

As they ventured deeper into the villa and saw the messy scene inside, Ye Shaohong's expression darkened further.

He knew that this time, he might have stumbled upon something serious by sheer coincidence. It was going to be quite a problem.
