Siheyuan: The Era of Struggle

Chapter 323 Major Luo Qiang
He Yuanchao nodded upon hearing this, but did not ask about the secret service. Instead, he asked with interest, "What is your relationship with Luo Gang who was arrested just now?"

When Luo Qiang heard this question, his face turned a little unhappy. Isn't this just like lice on a bald head? Can't you see it?
But people have to bow their heads under the eaves. Since he fell into the hands of others, in order to suffer less physical pain, he could only answer truthfully: "That's my brother, we are twins."

In fact, when He Yuanchao saw Luo Qiang for the first time, he already had the answer in his mind. Apart from being twin brothers, there was no other reason that could explain why the two looked so similar.

The reason why he asked this meaningless question was that he didn't want to get too involved in the case and was just killing time while waiting for Lian Shouren.

Just now when Luo Qiang came out of the cave, the young man from Guoan had already run out to report the news. I guess Lian Shouren should be here soon.

He was able to keep calm because he didn't want to have too much involvement with the National Security Bureau. Xiao Zheng, who was controlling Luo Qiang's steel plant security, was a little anxious when he saw that the credit was about to be obtained and his director still looked leisurely.

"Director, why don't we go down into the cave and take a look? Maybe we can find something new here!"

"We have already handed over the case to the National Security Bureau. It is not convenient for us to interfere in the affairs here." Seeing what was in Xiao Zheng's mind, He Yuanchao explained with a smile.

Xiao Zheng had only been working for over a year, but he was also very smart. As soon as He Yuanchao finished speaking, he had already figured out what was going on.

His own director was simply afraid that the espionage case would involve too many people and cause trouble. He could understand this idea, but the entire case, from discovery to arrest, was completed by the steel plant's security department. Now that it was about to be handed over to someone else, he was more or less reluctant.

Seeing that Xiao Zheng looked as wilted as an eggplant hit by frost, He Yuanchao didn't need to explain to him. However, thinking of their tacit cooperation just now and how pleasing he was to the eye, he decided to cultivate him.

So, in front of Luo Qiang, He Yuanchao briefly talked to Xiao Zheng about all aspects of the espionage case, including its complexity, danger, professionalism, and the inadequate capabilities of the steel plant's security department.

After listening carefully to He Yuanchao's words, Xiao Zheng realized that his thoughts were still a bit shallow. With a red face, he was about to say something to smooth things over, but before he could say anything, he heard hurried and messy footsteps outside Luo Gang's house.

Hearing the noise outside the house, He Yuanchao and Xiao Zheng were fine. They turned their heads and looked towards the door calmly.

Luo Qiang looked like a tough guy who didn't care if he was killed or cut, but when he saw seven or eight men with guns rushing into the small room, his handcuffed hands could not help but tremble slightly.

Lian Shouren, who entered the room, first stared at Luo Qiang and saw that he looked exactly like Luo Gang who had just been arrested, just as his subordinates said. His sullen face suddenly showed a smile.

"Brother Yuan Chao, I heard that you arrested Luo Gang again. Tell me what's going on. I'm still confused!"

Seeing Lian Shouren approaching him in a friendly manner and even changing his address, He Yuanchao did not hide anything and smiled as he briefly recounted the process of arresting Luo Qiang.

Maybe because of the misunderstanding just now, Lian Shouren was still in shock. As soon as He Yuanchao finished speaking, he couldn't wait to ask, "Have you confirmed your identity?"

"Confirmed."

He Yuanchao knew what Lian Shouren was thinking, so he pulled the handcuffed Luo Qiang in front of him and said, "Luo Gang's twin brother is a genuine secret service agent."

"He's still a major..."

"Luo Gang, fuck your grandma, you've screwed me to death."

Before Xiao Zheng, the steel plant defender, could finish his words, he was interrupted by a shrill curse from the crowd.

As the shouting reached the ears of everyone in the house, they saw a black shadow passing several steel plant guards, walking quickly to Luo Qiang, and chopping him on the head.

"Luo Gang, you son of a bitch, I'll kill you today if you cheat me."

Liu Liang's action was too sudden. By the time everyone reacted, Luo Gang not only had a black eye, but his nose was also bleeding. It was obvious that he had used a ruthless blow. "Liu Liang, what are you doing? Be quiet."

"Liu Liang, stop it right now."

……

Seeing this scene, although everyone in the steel factory shouted loudly, no one stepped forward to stop it. In the end, Lian Shouren scolded them while stepping forward and grabbing Liu Liang, who was crying and howling.

"Leader, please, my life has been ruined by this bastard. Let me beat him to death. I would rather pay for his life."

As he said that, Liu Liang struggled to break free from Lian Shouren's control and went forward to continue beating Luo Qiang.

"A fly won't bite an egg that's cracked. If you were sitting upright and walking straight, how could he have targeted you? To put it bluntly, you've fallen on your own terms."

Lian Shouren scolded Liu Liang in annoyance, then handed him over to the national security personnel beside him to be taken away and kept under careful watch, thus ending this little episode.

He turned his head and glanced at Luo Qiang. He saw that he only had superficial injuries and was not seriously injured. Lian Shouren ignored him and walked to He Yuanchao and said, "Yuanchao, have you searched the place where Luo Qiang is hiding?"

"We have little experience in defending our steel mills against spies."

As He Yuanchao spoke, he led Lian Shouren to the round corner cabinet and pointed to the hole inside, saying, "Besides, we don't know what's going on inside until we have time to ask.

If we search rashly, I'm afraid we might destroy some important clues."

Lian Shouren nodded upon hearing this. In his heart, he approved of He Yuanchao's approach, but on his face he pretended to disagree and said:

"A strong general has no weak soldiers under him. I have seen the people you brought here. They are all very capable at work. You are just too modest."

The colorful sedan was carried by everyone, and Lian Shouren praised the soldiers he brought with him, so He Yuanchao didn't mind praising him for once.

"It's better to be cautious. It's more efficient to leave professional matters to professionals."

Being recognized by capable people, Lian Shouren smiled more broadly. The national security personnel behind him were like proud little roosters, with their chests puffed out and their heads held high.

Everyone likes to hear nice words, but seeing that it was getting late, Lian Shouren was worried about the case and did not continue to be polite with He Yuanchao.

"The security director of this steel plant is a reliable person. We can get to know him more in the future."

Lian Shouren thought to himself as he walked up to Luo Qiang, who had a bruised face.

After asking Luo Qiang about the situation in the cave, he walked impatiently into the round corner cabinet with a national security officer.

Although Luo Qiang told him that there was no danger in the cave, He Yuanchao still did not dare to be careless. Who knew if this guy had any backup plan and was planning to die together with everyone in the room.

Without waiting for the leader Lian Shouren to get into the cave, He Yuanchao quickly told the security department to escort Luo Qiang out of the house. He himself stood beside the round corner cabinet waiting to meet the two people who entered the cave.
