Anti-Japanese War Espionage: I Have an Omniscient Perspective

Young Master Li kicked open the door of the Jincheng Theater and stormed out. The people in the theater knew his identity, but no one dared to stop him, fearing that they would get into trouble.

After that, Lin Rui slowly walked out.

Follow from a distance.

The young master Li in front clenched his fists, his face was ashen, veins bulged on his forehead, and he kept cursing.

Her tone was full of resentment and bitterness: "You bitch! You're such an ungrateful bitch! What's so great about Wan Heilin? Does he even dare to compete with me for a woman? I think you've been blinded by greed!"

Upon seeing this, the attendants waiting at the door quickly stepped forward, not daring to utter a word.

Young Master Li abruptly stopped, turned around, and stared at his attendant with a sinister look: "Do me a favor."

The attendant trembled and quickly stepped forward, whispering, "Young master, whatever your orders, I will carry them out perfectly!"

"Go, find those scoundrels who used to do things for us." Young Master Li's voice was extremely low, but every word was laced with ruthlessness. "Tonight, after Manli's performance, you take them and wait at the back door of the theater. Kidnap that bitch and take her to my house in the new district! I want to see if she still dares to put on airs in front of me, and if she still dares to mention Wan Heilin, once she's in my hands!"

Upon hearing this, the attendant's face turned deathly pale, and his body trembled violently. He cautiously advised, "Young Master, you mustn't! Miss Manli is now Wan Heilin's woman. Wan Heilin is all-powerful in the Du family now. Although Boss Du has gone to Hong Kong, he still has many capable men under his command. If we kidnap Miss Manli, Wan Heilin will definitely not let it go. At that time, our Li family will probably be in big trouble!"

"Trouble? What trouble?" Upon hearing this, Young Master Li flew into a rage and slapped one of his attendants across the face. The crisp sound was particularly jarring in the quiet street.

But no one dared to peek out in their direction.

Even Lin Rui, in order to better eavesdrop on their conversation, went into the Russian-owned shop next door, pretending to shop, but actually using his supernatural ability to eavesdrop.

The car arrived, and Young Master Li got in. Pointing his finger at his entourage, he berated him harshly, his tone filled with arrogance and rudeness, "You're getting more and more cowardly! The world is in complete chaos these days. Those so-called rules are useless now! Even Boss Du was scared enough to flee to Hong Kong to avoid trouble. What is Wan Heilin? Does he dare to act tough in front of me?"

The attendant's mouth was bleeding from the beating, but he dared not raise his hand to wipe it. He could only keep his head down, trembling all over, without even the courage to refute.

Young Master Li, panting heavily, had calmed his anger slightly, but his tone remained fierce: "Look at this French Concession! It's full of refugees, rife with gangs, a chaotic mess. Fights break out every day, sometimes even resulting in death. Who would care if an actor was kidnapped? Even if Wan Heilin wanted to investigate, he wouldn't be able to trace it back to us. Those scoundrels are just a bunch of penniless scum. Even if something goes wrong, they can easily claim it was their own greed that led to the kidnapping, and that it has nothing to do with the Li family!"

He paused, a glint of malice flashing in his eyes: "Let me tell you, you have to handle this matter perfectly tonight. If you can't find the right person, or if you mess it up, I'll throw you into the refugee camp and let you starve to death with those lowly people!"

The attendant trembled with fear: "Young master, spare me! Young master, spare me! I'll take care of it right away, I'll do it perfectly, and I won't cause you any trouble!"

"Hurry up and go!" Young Master Li shouted sternly.

"Yes, yes, yes! I'll go right away!" The attendant hurriedly got out of the carriage, covering his burning cheeks, and without daring to delay for a moment, stumbled and ran south.

Watching his entourage hastily depart, a sinister smile appeared on Young Master Li's face inside the car. He straightened his suit, turned his gaze to the Jincheng Theater, and said coldly, "Manli, you forced me into this. Tonight, you are mine! Drive."

The car drove away.

When Mr. Wang, the owner of the Jincheng Grand Theater, came out, he was wiping the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief.

The waiter asked from the side, "Boss, Young Master Li seems genuinely angry."

"Don't I have eyes?" Boss Wang glared at his employee.

At this moment, Lin Rui also came out of the Russian store, pretending not to know: "Old Wang, what's going on here?"

"Sigh, I don't know either." Boss Wang clasped his hands in a respectful greeting, then turned and went back.

Lin Rui thought to himself, if the people that Young Master Li hired make a move tonight, wouldn't that be perfect for Huang Dazhu and his men to rescue people?

Lin Rui immediately had a plan in mind. Without further hesitation, he rushed towards Huang Dazhu's residence.

He didn't disguise himself because he wanted to meet Huang Dazhu's brothers as "Manager Chen" and have Huang Dazhu cooperate with him in the act, concealing their true relationship.

Before long, Lin Rui arrived at the alley where Huang Dazhu lived.

He strode into the alley and saw Huang Dazhu and his six brothers sitting in the open space in front of the warehouse, basking in the sun and chatting quietly, their faces showing a sense of contentment.

Yesterday, food was distributed to help the refugees, and they felt very at ease and happy.

Huang Dazhu's eyes flashed with surprise when he saw Lin Rui, but he immediately reacted and stood up to greet him: "Manager Chen? What brings you here? Please come in!"

Lin Rui nodded, a faint smile on his face, and followed Huang Dazhu to the warehouse door. He feigned surprise as he looked at Huang Dazhu's men and asked, "Dazhu, what are these?"

Huang Dazhu quickly explained with a smile, "Manager Chen, these are all my good brothers. They used to be like me, unable to stay in the refugee camp and came out to find a way to make a living. Later, we got together and formed a small gang called the Loyalty Gang, doing some small business."

As he spoke, he shouted to his brothers, "Brothers, come here quickly and greet Manager Chen! This Manager Chen helped me when I was in my most difficult time. He is my great benefactor. He also helped me find this house. If it weren't for Manager Chen, I, Huang Dazhu, wouldn't be where I am today!"

Upon hearing this, the six brothers immediately stood up in unison, bowed deeply to Lin Rui, and shouted in unison, "Greetings, Manager Chen! Our benefactor is our benefactor!"

Although they didn't know who this Manager Chen was, since he was their brother's benefactor, he was their benefactor too, and their tone was full of respect.

"You're too kind, everyone. There's no need for such formalities." Lin Rui waved his hand with a smile, his tone gentle. "Dazhu and I are also destined to meet. I helped him out when he was down on his luck. I never expected him to be so successful now, even establishing his own gang. It's truly remarkable."

Huang Dazhu scratched his head, a simple smile on his face, and said somewhat embarrassedly, "Manager Chen, you flatter me too much. I'm not very ambitious. I just want to lead my brothers and live a good life together."

"Good, that's the thought that counts." Lin Rui nodded, then changed the subject, his expression becoming serious as he said to Huang Dazhu, "Dazhu, I'm happy you're doing well, but I have some suggestions I need to offer. How about we find a place to talk?"

"Manager Chen, you're too kind. Please don't hesitate to ask for anything. If it's within my power, I, Huang Dazhu, will do it, even if it means going through fire and water!"

The two exchanged polite words before leaving the residence.
