Chapter 45 The Betrayer

There are thermos bottles on the high and low cabinets.

Qi Yue saw it when he came in.

He hooked the legs of the cabinet with his toes.

As Xu Tiehu pulled hard, the high and low cabinets shook constantly, the thermos bottle tilted twice, fell head-first, and the cork fell off with a bang.

The moment the thermos bottle fell, Qi Yue fell backwards, using Xu Tiehu's body to block the hot water.

Xu Tiehu tightened the rope buckle: "I really underestimated you, to hold on for so long...Ah!"

He didn't pay attention to the thermos bottle that fell suddenly. The hot water splashed all over his head and face, and he couldn't help letting go of his hand when it was so hot. Qi Yue took the opportunity to break free, retreated to the other side of the room, and coughed while covering his throat.

Regardless of the burning pain caused by the burn, Xu Tiehu picked up a fruit knife and pounced on it.

He knew that no matter what, "Tsing Yi" must not be allowed to leave alive!

The opponent was coming so fast that Qi Yue couldn't tolerate any other reaction. He touched the shovel and swung it out without thinking.

Xu Tiehu took a few steps back.

Feeling the heat on the neck, I reached out to touch it, and touched the blood on my hand-the sharp shovel cut the carotid artery, and the blood gushed out like a spring.

Goo-dong!
Xu Tiehu fell to the ground.

Qi Yue got closer and stared at him for a while: "If you don't want to die, tell me everything you know, and I can save your life."

Xu Tiehu struggled to sit up, looked at himself covered in blood, and couldn't help smiling miserably: "Careless, careless, it's no wonder that arrogant soldiers are bound to lose..."

He looked at Qi Yue: "Ten years ago, like you, I was bewitched and led astray, but fortunately, I realized my mistakes and corrected my mistakes in time. I asked to be transferred to Xinjing to do underground work. Hope to actually do something for the country..."

"You betrayed your faith, yet you are still confident!"

Qi Yue interrupted him.

"I have a clear conscience, of course I am confident..."

Xu Tiehu slowly piled up along the wall.

At this time, someone in the yard was talking in a low voice.

One of them said as he walked, "Iron Tiger has a habit of inserting the door. The door bolt is only half-closed, and it can be opened with a flick of any object. It is not against a gentleman but a villain."

"That's good too, so as not to disturb the neighbors by knocking on the door."

Let a person say.

Obviously, it was two acquaintances who came.

They just pulled the latch and came in by themselves.

Soon, there was a knock on the door outside the house.

Those who came were Yang Feng and a comrade surnamed Zhou from the Binjiang District Committee. They came to find Xu Tiehu tonight and planned to hold an impromptu meeting.

After waiting for a while, Xu Tiehu did not come to answer the door.

Comrade Zhou asked Yang Feng: "Could he have fallen asleep?"

Yang Feng shook his head: "Even if he fell asleep, with his vigilance..."

A streak of blood dripped out along the crack of the door.

Yang Feng and Comrade Zhou looked at each other and made a silent gesture to each other.

Comrade Zhou found a crowbar in the yard, put it into the crack of the door and pulled it hard, opened a gap in the door panel, reached in and pulled out the hatch.

Qi Yue wanted to wait and search Xu Tiehu's residence thoroughly, but seeing that there was no way to avoid it, he jumped out of the back window in a hurry.

The door is very loud, especially at night.

The door of the neighbor's house opened, and an old man asked loudly, "Mr. Xu, what happened?"

Comrade Yang Feng and Zhou couldn't care less, and stepped into the room.

The room was brightly lit, and Xu Tiehu lay motionless on the ground, with a large pool of blood under his body.

Yang Feng only glanced at it, then quickly walked into the bedroom, quickly found a civilian first aid kit, and prepared to bandage Xu Tiehu's wound.

Comrade Zhou is well versed in medical skills. After carefully inspecting Xu Tiehu's injuries, he shook his head lightly: "I've lost too much blood, and I can't save him. Lao Yang, we have to leave here quickly. The police will come later. It's going to be a hassle..."

Xu Tiehu moved his body: "Old Yang..."

Yang Feng immediately bent down: "Tiehu, I'm here, what happened?"

Xu Tiehu was dying, and his voice was as thin as a mosquito: "Qingyi, Qingyi is a traitor... I noticed this, he killed people to silence..."

Yang Feng was very shocked: "The murderer is Tsing Yi?"

"Yes……"

Xu Tiehu tilted his head and died out of breath.

Comrade Zhou urged at the door: "Old Yang, hurry up, someone is coming!"

Yang Feng endured his grief and bowed to Xu Tiehu's body.

Then the two also left through the rear window.

……

on Monday.

Secret Service meeting room.

"With regard to the military spy case, except for Wang Liansheng, the other five people can basically be ruled out as suspects. However, Wang Liansheng's whereabouts have been strange recently. I suggest arresting this person secretly..."

Liu Wenlong is reporting the progress of the case.

"Inappropriate. Arresting people without evidence is very easy to scare the snake. Besides, I heard that Wang Liansheng is still Qi Chaozong's brother-in-law, is that true?"

Gao Kejian turned to ask Qi Yue for verification.

Qi Yue said respectfully: "Yes. But, they are only cousins."

Gao Kejian said: "As the saying goes, there are three types of relatives, and cousins ​​are also relatives. How can the Qi Dynasty Zong be willing to give up if he arrests his brother-in-law without evidence and grounds?"

Liu Wenlong said: "I wonder if Wang Liansheng has noticed something. Some time ago, he went to the Youth Chess Club every now and then, but now he doesn't go once."

Gao Kejian asked: "Then what has he been up to lately?"

Liu Wenlong said: "Recently, he has been running to Rongrong every day... Oh, there was a murder case in Rongrong. He was in charge of investigating the case. This case was published in the newspaper. Wang Liansheng will solve the case within ten days."

Gao Kejian said: "Let's put it this way, let's let the military command spy case go for now. As for Wang Liansheng... just send someone to watch it."

"Section Chief, has something particularly important happened recently?"

Liu Wenlong asked tentatively.

Gao Kejian said: "At the beginning of next month, His Majesty the Emperor will visit Binjiang personally."

There was a whisper in the conference room.

"After working as a messenger for so many years, I finally have the opportunity to meet the emperor himself."

Liu Wenlong was also very excited.

Gao Kejian coughed lightly: "It is both our honor and our responsibility for the emperor to come to Binjiang. Before the end of the month, the military and police special constitution will launch a joint operation to thoroughly clean up the whole city! There is a large flow of people Clean up the places, such as hotels, almshouses, smokehouses, restaurants, etc. Beggars, homeless people, and mentally ill patients must be taken in forcibly, and the household registration of residents along the way must be checked, and preventive work must be done in advance for those whose identities are unclear , must ensure the safety of His Majesty the Emperor!"

Liu Wenlong frowned: "It's okay to say other things. I'm afraid there aren't so many cells to accommodate those beggars who are mentally ill. I'm afraid it will be a bit troublesome."

Gao Kejian said: "There are many empty barracks in the Pingfang military area. The police department has already communicated with the barracks. When the time comes, a group of them will be transferred to prison. They are only temporarily detained..."
