Chapter 1065 Face to face

When Liao Xun heard what Wan Fa said, his heart sank. As an official of the intelligence agency, his whereabouts have always been relatively secretive. Today, he only brought six of his subordinates with him when he came to Chengfeng Bank for business. In addition, he was deployed in Chengfeng

The two teams of people monitoring outside the bank only have a total of about ten people. Originally, these people were used to monitor a small business store, and they were enough to protect their own safety. After all, this place is close to Hangzhou City, and most people would not dare to be here.

This is a place where he can't get along with Jin Yiwei. But Wan Fa dares to tease himself here so unscrupulously. Presumably all the subordinates he led were not spared, and they all fell into the control of the other party.

When the matter reached this point, Liao Xun also had a new understanding of Wan Fa's identity. He dared to drug and imprison Jinyiwei officials, and he had not revealed any flaws in his previous contacts. This was definitely not something that an ordinary businessman could do.

What happened. As a professional, Liao Xun fell into this trap mainly because he was still unprepared for Wan Fa. But now that he combines the causes and consequences, it is not difficult for him to deduce the reason why Wan Fa attacked him.

"So from the beginning to the end, you were with the Haihan people?" Liao Xun asked through gritted teeth.

Wan Fa did not guess otherwise, and nodded and replied: "Master Liao, haven't you been deliberately trying to find the Haihan people? In fact, the villain is one of them. You came to block the villain's way of life, so that's it.

Don’t blame the villain for rising up and resisting.”

After listening to these two sentences, Liao Xun understood the ins and outs of the matter. This Wanfa was a person sent by the Haihan people to Hangzhou to lurk. Using his identity as a store owner as a cover, he secretly organized immigration for Haihan.

Collecting intelligence, but because of his good concealment methods, he mistakenly thought that he only did things for the Haihan people because of his greed for money, and hoped that he could scare him with his identity as Jinyiwei. But the other party was obviously trying to

Even though he was making excuses with himself, he dug such a big hole in advance and waited for him to jump out, which shows how calm his mind is.

However, Liao Xun was not a rookie, and he did not mess up in this unfavorable situation. He judged that since the other party just tied him up with a rope, he must have some conspiracy to obtain some information from him or threaten him to agree to it.

Certain requirements, otherwise you should directly kill yourself to avoid future troubles. Since the other party did not directly strike hard, it means that there is still room for maneuver. Whether you can escape safely depends on whether you can understand the other party's true intentions.

.

Liao Xun said: "Boss Wan, since you want to kidnap me even if you don't hesitate to reveal your identity, you must have something to ask for, so you might as well talk about it. If it's not too much of a request, I can grant you permission even if you don't want to."

Wan Fa chuckled and said: "The villain is just a pawn running errands. Whatever the above says, the villain will just do it without asking the reason. Mr. Liao wants to know what happened so much. Please wait for a moment until the villain's boss comes to talk to you.

Interview with adults.”

After Wan Fa finished speaking, he left the room without waiting for Liao Xun to ask questions. Liao Xun was tied to a chair alone. The door was open in front of him. Two lanterns were hung under the beams at the door. There was no lantern in the room. There was no lantern outside the door.

There was no sound in the courtyard, and no one could be seen anywhere in his field of vision. He could only judge from the layout of the room that this was the room where he was before he fell into coma. Although he wanted to call out loudly, he knew that since the other party dared, he would just let it go.

If you don't care about yourself, you must be fully confident in controlling the situation, and there must be someone watching you secretly. If you try to call for help, you may even be gagged.

Liao Xun's feeling was quite accurate. When Wan Fa was talking to him, Gong Qiqi was watching him through the observation hole on the wall next door. If Liao Xun showed fear, panic and other emotions, he could use this to deal with

He could judge his mental state and make a more targeted response. This move was also one of the interrogation techniques he learned from He Xi. However, Liao Xun was also an officer who had been in the industry for many years and received specialized training. Although the incident occurred

Even though he was suddenly in an unfavorable situation, he didn't appear too panicked. At least on the surface, he seemed to be in a relatively calm state.

However, Gong Shiqi is also very confident in the plan he has designated. As long as Gao Qiaonan in the city can act according to the plan, he believes that it is only a matter of time before he can defeat Liao Xun's mental defense. But before using his trump card, he must

Meet your opponent first and try to get more valuable information from them.

Liao Xun didn't know how long he had been sitting there. It might have been just a cup of tea, or it might have been an hour or two. Suddenly he heard the sound of dense and orderly footsteps coming from outside. This shocked him, and he thought:

It was his own men who escaped and moved reinforcements to come to the rescue.

However, what finally appeared in his field of vision was not the Jinyiwei wearing Yisa official uniforms with embroidered spring knives on their waists, but more than ten men masked in black cloth. Except for the black patches on their faces, only their eyes, mouth and nose were exposed.

The cloth was exactly the same, but the clothes were different. After the first few people entered the room, they lit lamps in the room. Liao Xun actually recognized this new type of oil lamp. It was the Haihan type that began to appear on the market in Zhejiang in the past year or two.

The characteristic of the oil lamp is that a windproof glass cover is added above the lamp holder. The length of the burning wick can be adjusted by using the mechanism, and a semi-enclosed iron cover can be added outside to focus the light. Liao Xun is so familiar with it because he owns it.

There are two such oil lamps in his house. Now two of them are placed opposite Liao Xun. The light is right in front of his face, making it difficult for him to even open his eyes.

Liao Xun saw that the clothes of these people were almost all made of coarse cloth. Some of them even had dirt stains on their trouser legs and hem of their clothes. It seemed that they were all pretending to be low-class people doing rough work. But these masked men

No one carried weapons such as swords. Only a few of them carried short wooden sticks more than two feet long in their hands, and they didn't look like they were going to fight.

From the situation he saw in front of him, Liao Xun judged at least two things. First, these people covered their faces in unison, probably to prevent their faces from being remembered by him. From this point of view, he did still have hope of survival.

, because if the other party is willing to kill him, there is no need to worry about the consequences of his identity being exposed. Of course, Wan Fa, who has been exposed, is definitely not among them. If Liao Xun can leave alive, then Wan Fa will definitely not set foot in Hangzhou again.

The house is over.

Secondly, these people did not carry swords with them, and they seemed to be very relieved about the environment here. They were sure that no reinforcements from Liao Xun would fall from the sky, so they appeared so easily.

Someone moved a grand master's chair to the door in front of Liao Xun and put it down. Then another masked man walked into the room and sat down on the chair carelessly. Liao Xun looked at his dress, which looked like a wealthy businessman.

He seems to be the mastermind of this group of people.

"Mr. Liao, I have admired you for a long time. It's a great pleasure to meet you today!" After the man sat down, he greeted Liao Xungong with his hands in hand.

Liao Xun snorted and said: "Please forgive me for my inconvenience at the moment and my inability to return the courtesy!"

The other party ignored his complaint and had no intention of giving an order to loosen the ties. He continued on his own: "I am Gong Shiqi, who happens to be in the same line of work as Mr. Liao. I heard that Mr. Liao has been looking for us, so we made this arrangement.

I have taken this opportunity to meet and talk with Mr. Liao. I hope Mr. Liao will be considerate of any disrespect."

Liao Xun sneered and said: "You are in the same line as me? You are so brave, a thief. How dare you boast about this kind of Haikou!"

Liao Xun said harsh words, but he was secretly surprised. He had seen the name Gong Shiqi in relevant intelligence before. It was said that he was one of the key personnel of the intelligence agency under Haihan's rule. This person actually

Coming to Hangzhou to deal with him in person shows that Haihan also used a lot of resources for this operation.

Gong Shiqi was not angry because of Liao Xun's sarcasm, and continued: "During the year when Haihan arrived in Zhejiang, Mr. Liao seemed to have never stopped opposing us. If it is for economic reasons, then I suggest a truce.

, Haihan can provide Mr. Liao with more generous profits than in the past. In our opinion, the Zhoushan Boat Gang's business method is too crude and inefficient. After Haihan takes over the local area, it can make money ten times as fast. We are willing to stand on the side of

People on our side will also benefit from it. Mr. Liao is a smart man and should know which choice will be more beneficial to him."

Liao Xun said: "Of course everyone wants money, and I am no exception. However, you Haihan's money is a hot hand, but I dare not take advantage of it casually."

Gong Shiqi smiled and said: "What are you afraid of? Are you afraid that Dongchang will investigate you? Or are you afraid that your two accomplices, Yu Pingfeng and Guo Zheng, will not let you go?"

Liao Xun's face changed slightly. His alliance with Yu Pingfeng and Guo Zheng was not made public. How did the man named Gong know about it? He didn't know that the relationship between their small group had been exposed by the sea last year.

The Han Security Department learned that every account had been recorded for them. If it were not for the distance between Hangzhou and Zhoushan, Gong Shiqi would have brought the field team over to trouble him.

Gong Shiqi noticed the subtle change in the expression on Liao Xun's face, and continued: "In Fuzhou and Guangzhou in the south, many Ming officials who cooperated with us are living very well, and they have been promoted and made a fortune year after year, whether they are Dongchang or Jinyiwei,

If you don’t dare to go to trouble them easily, why do you want to go against us? If you didn’t have a chance to choose before, then I will give you a chance to make a choice now. Either cooperate with us or start from

Disappear in this world. Mr. Liao, which path do you think is more suitable for you?"

Liao Xun was not someone who could be intimidated by just a few words. He just sneered repeatedly: "Gong, you probably made a mistake. You are just outside thieves. What I do is the right way. There is no evil in heaven."

"Come on, how can I let you surrender to thieves like you! I would like to advise you to wake up as soon as possible, return from your lost ways, and draw a clear line with Haihan!"

Gong Shiqi nodded and said: "What Mr. Liao said is very upright. If I had not known Mr. Liao's deeds before, I might have believed what you said. Unfortunately, we are colleagues after all, and we don't ask so many questions when doing things.

In terms of right and wrong, you will only consider whether it is beneficial to your own camp, do you think this is the truth?"

Liao Xun said: "I see what you are doing and you are not a reasonable person, so please stop talking nonsense!"

Gong Shiqi said: "That's a pity. I originally planned to reason with you, but since you don't listen, I have no choice but to use other means."

Liao Xun said: "Since I have eaten this bowl of rice, I am not greedy for life and afraid of death. Just put the knife to my neck and see if it will bow to you!"

"You do have some backbone!" Gong Shiqi did not hide his approval: "I don't know how many military attachés of the Ming Dynasty can be like you. But it is a pity that you are in the wrong camp and have chosen the wrong one.

opponent."

Liao Xun snorted and said, "I would like to see what methods you can come up with."

Gong Shiqi snapped his fingers and said: "Hang up the map."

At that moment, someone set up a bamboo pole stand nearby and hung a three-foot-square map on it. Liao Xun took a look and said, "It's Hangzhou City!"

On this map, the positions of the ten city gates, the West Lake in the west of the city, and the Qiantang River in the south of the city are all clearly identifiable. Even the main roads in the city are clearly drawn. Isn't this the city of Hangzhou?

"Master Liao has a good eye." Gong Shiqi stood up and walked to the map. Immediately, his men moved the oil lamp to the side to better display the details on the map.

Gong Shiqi raised his hand and pointed to the south of the city: "This is Fengshan Gate. The red dot below is the Chengfengxing where we are currently."

Then he pointed to a certain tunnel in the city and said: "This is the Dusi Yamen... This is the Department of Punishment and Prosecution... This is the Jinyiwei Yamen... This is your former residence..."

As Gong Shiqi pointed out the locations marked on the map one by one, Liao Xun's nerves became tense. He did not expect that the Haihan people had actually put a lot of effort into Hangzhou City to find out all these details one by one.

Especially when the other party pointed out the location of his old residence, Liao Xun already had a bad omen in his mind - since Gong Shiqi already knew that it was his previous residence, it meant that his current residence had not escaped the other party's surveillance.

.

Sure enough, the next target Gong Shiqi pointed to moved directly to the north of the city: "Here, Jincaifang in the north of the city, the third house on this street should be Mr. Liao's new house, right? If our surveillance didn't show up,

If it is omitted, then this house should contain Lord Liao’s wife, one concubine, one son and one daughter, a housekeeper, six servants, and two martial arts guards. Originally, there were two other people living in the house connected behind.

Person No. 30, but he left the city and boarded a ship to Ningbo early this morning... Mr. Liao, did you miss anything?"

Liao Xun said angrily: "What do you want?"

Gong Shiqi returned to his seat and sat down, and said calmly: "It's not a big deal. I just want to invite Mr. Liao's family to stay on Zhoushan Island for a while... All the expenses will be borne by me.
