The Bourne Counterattack

Chapter 526 Both sides suffer losses
"Wu Sibao, why don't you tell the truth?" Ding Moqun shouted. He knew that it would be difficult to move Lin Shiqun.

Therefore, the target was set at Wu Sibao.

Don’t you, Lin Shiqun, want Wu Sibao to assassinate Peng Nian and cut off my arm? I’ll give you a blow too.

Come on, let's hurt each other!

Zhou Fuhai also realized that Ding Moqun had no intention of killing Lin Shiqun directly, which was a sign of political maturity.

He couldn't help but look up to Ding Moqun.

Old Ding still knows the limits and knows when to advance and retreat. He knows what to do without being reminded.

Lieutenant Colonel Haruki Keitsugu, as Kagesawa's assistant, certainly knew what Kagesawa was thinking. Lin Shiqun was a sharp knife in the hands of the Umeki Agency, and this knife could not be broken. As long as Lin Shiqun was safe, other people were not important to him.

Especially this Wu Sibao, not only does he have an ugly face, but the things he does are also uncomfortable.

If Lin Shiqun hadn't protected him, he would not have been willing to employ someone with such questionable quality.

"Director Ding, I have nothing to say." Wu Sibao knew that as long as he refused to admit it, there would be no chance of turning things around. But once he admitted it, if Ding Moqun dealt with him in front of Zhou Fuhai and Qingqi Qingyin, there would be no room for maneuver.

Of course, even if Wu Sibao admitted that he did it, Ding Mocun would not punish him on the spot. After all, Zhou Fuhai and the Japanese were there, so he had to leave room for them.

"Since you said so, you admit that you ordered Bai Saner to assassinate Peng Nian." Ding Mocun ordered, "Come here, put Wu Sibao in the detention center and wait for punishment!"

Wu Sibao was taken away and locked up. He did not receive the preferential treatment in the Gaoyangfang treatment room last time. This time he was directly locked up in the detention center.

The key positions above and below No. 76 are all controlled by Lin Shiqun's people. Even if Wu Sibao is put in the detention center, he will not suffer much.

However, Wu Sibao was detained in the detention center in the presence of Zhou Fuhai and the Japanese, so Lin Shiqun was afraid that he could not release him secretly.

Lin Shiqun was invited into the reception room again.

This time the atmosphere was much more harmonious. After all, the case was suspended at the level of Wu Sibao and did not implicate Lin Shiqun.

However, Wu Sibao was imprisoned again, which was a big blow to Lin Shiqun.

Wu Sibao's knife was very useful to Lin Shiqun. Now that the knife was taken away by Ding Moqun, many things he could do became difficult.

Ding Moqun handed the confession about Bai Saner given to him by Peng Nian to Lin Shiqun. It was clearly written on it that Wu Sibao told him that it was Lin Shiqun who ordered him to assassinate Peng Nian.

He did not say this when he was interrogating Wu Sibao just now, but he made it clear in his confession to Lin Shiqun.

"Deputy Director Lin, can you give me an explanation?"

"I have never issued such an order, Director Ding, what do you want me to explain?" Lin Shiqun rejected it without thinking, "What about Datou? You can ask him to confront me, or bring this Bai Saner here, and I will ask him in person to see if I said such a thing."

"Can Bai Saner see you? He must have heard it from Wu Sibao. Wu Sibao is your die-hard fan and the most loyal to you. If you didn't say anything, would he dare to forge your order?"

"No means no, why should I hide it!" Lin Shiqun said. How could he admit that he had given such an order.

If he lets his subordinates assassinate his colleagues, and this gets out, won't those who already have a bad relationship with him be in danger?
If you treat your own people in such a cruel way, will anyone who offends you have a good life in the future?

"Old Ding, I believe that Deputy Director Lin will not do anything that violates the ethics of a senior government official. Wu Sibao has a grudge against Peng Nian, so we can reexamine this case." Zhou Fuhai was not stupid, so he naturally understood what was going on.

But he saw through it but didn't say it out loud. He didn't like Lin Shiqun in the first place. Since he had been hanging out with him, he went to join the Gongguan faction's gang. With this kind of political ethics, he is even worse than a slave of three surnames!

"Advisor Qingqi, what do you think?" Zhou Fuhai asked. Qingqi Qingyin is the advisor of No. 76. This advisor is not just asking for advice, but has real power and can decide the internal affairs of No. 76.

"Okay." Qingqi Qingyin thought about it for a moment and nodded in agreement.

Obviously, after discussing this, the three people have already determined that this case was caused by the personal grudge between Wu Sibao and Peng Nian.

Wu Sibao would probably be fine, but he would definitely be punished. However, how to punish Wu Sibao might be a difficult problem. The death of a Paramount dancer was not a big deal to them.

But this is not the issue to be discussed now. We should first conduct an internal investigation into the case of Wu Sibao ordering the assassination of Peng Nian.

Ding Moqun would not agree if he was let off without any clear reason.

There is another problem, that is, how to prevent the police from knowing what happened inside No. 76. If the police knew about the case, it would be troublesome.

This case is being investigated by the Political Section of the Municipal Police Station. The young leader of the Chinese group is not an easy person to deal with.

The other party seemed to have some grudge against Wu Sibao, and this case involved Wu Sibao. Once he knew about it, would he let go of this opportunity?

The news must be kept secret.

To block the news, we must narrow the scope of the insider...

Lin Shiqun was the most urgent one, and Ding Moqun would not stop the order to block the news out of consideration for the interests of No. 76.

If the Municipal Police Station gets involved, it will be troublesome.

"Old Ding, you have a problem with me. This is our internal problem, but we can't let outsiders laugh at us." Lin Shiqun and Ding Moqun sent Zhou Fuhai away together, and when they came back, he said to Ding Moqun seriously.

"You want to keep this matter secret from the outside world and not let them know that Chen Manli's case is related to us, right?" Ding Moqun asked.

"Yes." Lin Shiqun said, "If the police knew that Chen Manli was killed by mistake and Wu Sibao was the mastermind, they would definitely issue a warrant. Then, Sibao would not be able to enter and leave the concession freely!"

"Deputy Director Lin, do you think Wu Sibao can still stay in Shanghai?" Ding Moqun sneered.

"Old Ding, what do you mean?"

"There is no wall that is impenetrable. Wu Sibao suddenly disappeared. Do you think others would not know about it?" Ding Moqun said.

"Then, Lao Ding, can you let him go?"

"If I let him go, how can I face Lao Peng? If Wu Sibao attacks his own people like this and nothing is done about it, not only I but you too will lose the support of the people!" Ding Moqun sneered.

"Old Ding, what do you think we should do?"

"Wu Sibao has made such a big mistake. He is no longer fit to be the chief of the Guard Corps. He must be taken down!" Ding Moqun said. His purpose is to chop off one of your arms. How could he let it go if he got the chance?

"Then, Lao Ding, if you take over the big boss, who will take his place?"

"Lin Zhijiang is good. It would be a good idea to have him take over Wu Sibao's position." Ding Mocun said. Anyway, he really didn't have anyone suitable for this position. "Also, Ding Xisan can be his deputy."

Lin Shiqun narrowed his eyes slightly. He understood Ding Mocun's intention. Lin Zhijiang was his man, and he recommended Lin Zhijiang to be the captain of the guard corps. This was not surprising at all. But Ding Xisan was He Tianfeng's man, and He Tianfeng was Ding Mocun's man. After He Tianfeng was assassinated, Ding Xisan, as He's deputy, was naturally won over by Ding Mocun.

In terms of operations, Ding Mocun has few people he can use, one of whom is Pan Xing, who is Xia Zhongming's subordinate.

"Okay, I agree." Lin Shiqun gritted his teeth and agreed, "Then how do you arrange the big head?"

"Jinling or Yuhang, let him choose one." Ding Mocun said, "What do you think?"

This means transferring Wu Sibao away from him!

Old Ding is becoming more and more proficient in using this trick. First it was Ma Xiaotian, and then it was Wu Sibao. Old Ding, you are really cruel.

However, you yourself are not often in Shanghai, so what if all his close associates are transferred away?
