Chapter 838 Right Eyelid Twitching
Chapter 838 Right Eyelid Twitching
Beiping.
A residential house.
Mao Wanli had been brought here for three or four days. Four or five people were watching him with his hands and feet tied up. They would only untie him when he needed to go to the bathroom. But even then they kept their eyes on him and he had no chance to escape.
He was so upset!
If I had known earlier, I would have been more cautious and moved to another place after poisoning those officers.
On the fifth day, Matsuzaki arrived.
He was so proud of himself that during these five days, with Pei Junshan leading the way, he captured many key members of the Beiping Station by either luring or forcibly arresting them. The key point was that even the news did not leak out!
Matsuzaki even thought that his operation this time was definitely no worse than Lin Jun's. He and Lin Jun were simply the twin stars of the spy world!
It took several years to finally catch Mao Wanli. This time, Matsuzaki was extremely cautious. He didn't even bring the man back to the headquarters, but locked him up in a yard.
Looking at Mao Wanli, who looked gloomy and annoyed, Song Qi sat opposite him with a smile, "Stationmaster Mao, this is the first time we meet, right? But we should be considered old friends. Are you getting used to living here?"
Mao Wanli said nothing, neither yelling nor begging for mercy.
Since this old Japanese doesn't want to kill me, he must be asking for something. I'll just have to wait for him to make a move.
"Stationmaster Mao, you are a smart man, I will not beat around the bush with you. Don't think about pretending to surrender, and don't think about dying rather than surrendering. I tell you, I have captured almost all of your people, including your liaison Yin Deming. As long as I spread the word that you have surrendered to us, no matter how you explain in the future, the Military Control Commission will no longer believe you."
Mao Wanli closed his eyes in pain.
He knew that Matsuzaki was telling the truth.
He should never have been arrested alive. Now that Beiping Station has been taken down, even if he escapes in the future, who will trust him again?
This is the sadness of being a spy!
Matsuzaki smiled and said, "Of course! Even if you refuse to cooperate and don't say a word, it doesn't matter. Anyway, your Beiping Station has been destroyed. I will kill you and then publish an advertisement in the newspaper saying that in order to protect you as a surrendered personnel, you have been secretly sent to our mainland. In this way, you will have to bear the infamy for the rest of your life!"
The room fell silent.
Mao Wanli still said nothing.
"Stationmaster Mao, I have a suggestion for you to consider. As the stationmaster of Beiping Station, you must know some clues that are useful to us besides the things about Beiping Station, right? For example, those about protecting the city, or even those outside the border. As long as you are willing to speak up and cooperate with me in doing one or two small things, I will tell the public that you were arrested and beaten to death, and then send you to the border. You can do business or farm, and live in anonymity from now on. Isn't it good? It can not only preserve your reputation, but also save your life. This is a good thing! Of course, if you are willing to continue to work for us, then I will help you change your name and give you an official position. Isn't it much better than being a stationmaster hiding all day long?"
Mao Wanli was really hesitant.
At this moment, Matsuzaki clapped his hands, "Come in!"
Pei Junshan came in from outside and bowed respectfully to Mao Wanli, "Stationmaster."
Mao Wanli recognized him and was shocked and angry, "Pei Junshan? Is it you!?"
Pei Junshan smiled, "Stationmaster, I have abandoned the dark and joined the light. I told you the truth. You have seen the current situation. Even if the imperial army cannot break into the mountain city, the mountain city is also powerless to fight back. In the end, it can only be divided by the river. Even dividing the river by the river is not possible. The south is like the small court of the Southern Song Dynasty, living in a corner. How long can it survive? You are unwilling to cooperate, it's nothing more than caring about your reputation after death. Stationmaster, I will be the traitor and bear the infamy. You will be the official and enjoy the blessings. How about it? General Matsuzaki will not treat you unfairly. Now I live in a big house. General Matsuzaki has rewarded me with dozens of gold bars. As long as you join the imperial army, you will have houses, cars, money, and women, and you don’t have to bear the infamy. Is there such a good thing in the world?"
You know what, this trick Matsuzaki used was really vicious.
If you torture them right away, it may not have the same effect.
But now they have left him alone for several days. First, they have wiped out the Beiping Station and then come to negotiate with Mao Wanli. Every word they say hits him right in the heart. The key is to help him change his name and say that Mao Wanli has sacrificed himself so that he doesn't have to bear the infamy anymore.
This is such a great temptation!
The little bit of national integrity left in Mao Wanli's heart was still struggling.
Pei Junshan advised again: "If you don't cooperate, you will die in the end, and it will be a very unhappy death. You know better than anyone what the imperial army has. Can you endure that kind of pain? Why bother!"
After a while, Mao Wanli spoke with difficulty, "I know a clue that will be useful to you..."
Matsuzaki smiled and said, "It is useful to us."
.............
Mountain city, Luojiawan.
Mao Dafeng sat in the office, looking at the ceiling.
My right eyelid was twitching.
He kept comforting himself that he hadn't rested well recently and it was normal for his eyelids to twitch.
After a while, he went to the mail room of the telecommunications department. Xiao Wang was on duty inside, holding a bowl of noodles and chewing them.
Mao Dafeng was stunned, "Is Xiao Wang eating?"
Then I raised my wrist to look at the watch. It was only a little past four o'clock and it was not time for dinner yet.
Seeing his strange look, Xiao Wang curled his lips and said, "I gave money to the small kitchen and asked them to make it for me and send it to me."
Mao Dafeng thought that there were few people working in the Military Control Commission headquarters who were without money.
Why haven’t I heard of this service before?
I guess this matter spread after Xiao Wang's father came to see her last time.
The people below are just looking down on others for favors!
"Then take your time to eat. Xiao Wang, is there a telegram from the Peking Station?"
"Director Mao, you have asked me eight out of ten times in the past two days. If there was a telegram from the Beiping Station, how could I not inform you? Didn't they say someone was arrested at the Beiping Station? I guess they are keeping quiet. I tried to contact them twice but failed."
Mao Dafeng felt even more uncertain.
The worst possible scenario now is that Mao Wanli was arrested.
If my cousin is arrested, will he be able to hold on?
The most crucial thing is that when he sent people to deliver arms and supplies to the Peking Station, he had brought a secret letter. The letter mentioned that the leader of the special group, Jin Fo, would take office as the station chief of Tianjin Station, and asked Mao Wanli to hurry up and make meritorious contributions and not be outdone by the neighboring Tianjin Station.
Now that I think about it, why am I so mean? !
If the Golden Buddha's secrets were leaked...
Mao Dafeng shuddered!
While eating noodles, Xiao Wang looked at Mao Dafeng strangely.
This greasy man is in a daze and shivering. What is he doing here?
It’s affecting my appetite!
