Chapter 2654 Capital ([-])

The two assistants, Xiao Wei, were whispering together. Although they were also naturalized civilian cadres, they were not "lingao cadres", but recruited from Jiangnan and Guangdong, and they were somewhat "not firm in their will."Although they did not doubt the strength of the Senate, they were somewhat shaken in the current crisis.To be honest, they didn't quite believe that Wu Kaidi could come up with a suitable solution, but the idea of ​​running away had disappeared without a trace under Liao Sanniang's sharp eyes.Right now, it's mostly a "resignation to fate" mood.

A group of people had their own thoughts, but Wu Kaidi came back.Xiao Xiangli hurriedly asked: "How is it? What is the charter of Team Leader Qi?"

Wu Kai said: "He came to inform us that tomorrow he will come to detain the witnesses and ask us to prepare the witnesses. I can't run away, and I must go to the court tomorrow..."

Xiao Xiangli said anxiously: "You are the backbone of Delong now, what should we do if you are detained?" As they spoke, the two assistants showed panic.

"No problem." Wu Kai sat down and took a sip of tea, "Boss Qi said that ten people will be detained in total, as long as there are ten people in the classroom tomorrow. Just remember that during the interrogation It’s available whenever you call.”

As he spoke, he took out a list, and the first one on it was Wu Kaidi. Next, besides He Xiang, the two assistants and several of Li Delong's backbones and servants who often worked for Ning Yun were listed. on it.

Xiao Xiangli said: "That's what I said, but what if it's fishing, and trick us all to catch them all..."

Wei Xiangli shook his head and said, "Why bother to catch them all in one go? The Yamen of Shuntian Mansion can take us all away now—is it possible that you can escape?"

"That's right," Wu Kai said, "Qi Touer doesn't need to lie to us, he's sold our great friendship."

With this friendship, Wu Kaidi has some confidence in asking the government to "seize" the next matter.In fact, he had negotiated the price with Team Leader Qi just now, a total of 80 taels of "hard work", plus 30 taels of "substitute" fees for ten people.The relevant witnesses are all handled by Team Leader Qi.

This is very face-saving, especially being able to use a double, which can be regarded as a great help.Wu Kai knew that if there was no acquiescence from Liu Tuiguan or even Zhongfu Yin in this case, it would be impossible for Team Leader Qi to release this friendship.

Everyone discussed some countermeasures again, especially how to answer after going to court tomorrow.Wu Kaidi's suggestion is to tell the truth, except for matters involving Australians, other things can be said.

"...We actually know very little about this matter, so Liu Tuiguan and the others can say whatever they ask. As long as it doesn't involve the Senate, there is no need to deliberately conceal it."

Xiao Xiangli said anxiously: "This... will not be punished in court?"

Wu Kai smiled wryly and said: "Don't worry, I will take care of the head of the Qi team, even if you are sentenced, you will not suffer! It's just that this matter must be resolved as soon as possible, or the emperor will get interested and ask Dongchang Jinyiwei 'Ask carefully', entering the prison of the Zhenfu Division, it is really impossible for a god..."

These words made Xiao Xiangli's face turn pale, and even Wei Xiangli and others showed uneasy expressions.Li Rufeng gave Wu Kaidi a dissatisfied look, thinking that you are so boring to scare people!Immediately coughed and said: "We just need to find out the matter as soon as possible. Everyone should do what they should do, don't think wildly."

After saying that, everyone dispersed.Li Rufeng, Liao Sanniang and Wu Kaidi did not leave, there is one more important thing to do right now: rescue the darts.

Elder Leng's kidnapping is a certainty, and it is wishful thinking to expect the government to save him, and only Delong can rely on himself.

"This matter, I propose to ask the headquarters for help," Wu Kai said, "It is related to the elders, and we must not be neglected."

"I have no objection to asking the headquarters for help, but even if the headquarters can send someone, it will take ten days to arrive. We can't wait so long." Li Rufeng said, "It's better to ask for help than to ask yourself. We should find someone as soon as possible."

Wu Kaidi only felt that there was a mess in front of him, and he couldn't see the clue at all.Now he is a bit confused, so he can only nod his head in agreement.

Liao Sanniang pondered for a while, and said, "Mr. Wu, can all the people who serve Mr. Leng be called for interrogation?"

"This is easy. He Xiang and Yan Hong are both in the inner house, but his servants and guards who used to be close to him were all killed..."

"Except for the two of them, you should draw up a list of all the people who can get close to serving Mr. Leng, and we will check them one by one." Liao Sanniang said, "I'm afraid there is an inner ghost assisting in this matter."

Wu Kaidi was startled, and stammered: "You mean..."

"What I said is what I mean. Delong may have an inner ghost." Liao Sanniang actually suspected this at the scene of the crime.To accurately ambush Master Leng on the official road, it is impossible to do so without prior information.And if he wanted to lure Master Leng out of the city, he might be assisted by an inner ghost.

The most suspected inner ghost is naturally the people around Ning Yun.

"Miss He should..."

"There's nothing wrong with it," Liao Sanniang interrupted Wu Kaidi, "In my opinion, she's the most suspicious."

Li Rufeng also has the same opinion.Immediately, the three people called He Xiang and other people close to the inner house to interrogate them one by one, focusing on asking whether there was any abnormality in the condensation cloud in the past few days.

This inquiry turned out to be a clue.

It's not who is most suspected, but He Xiang's staff who are able to serve him personally have reported that Mr. Leng has been preoccupied these past few days. He hesitated for a long time when writing the report last week, put down the pen and wrote Burned again.He Xiang, who was waiting to be translated into a code, was very surprised, because most of these weekly reports were routine, even if there was important news that needed to be reported, he would not hesitate to write the report.

"...do you know what he's writing about?"

"I don't know," He Xiang shook his head, "Originally our rule is that when the superior is writing a telegram, we can't ask too much, and we only translate the telegram after writing."

"Since when did he have something on his mind? Are there any remains of the burnt manuscript?"

"No, according to the rules, we have to clean it up." He Xiang also knew that the chief's indecision might be related to his disappearance, so he tried his best to recall, "I have something on my mind that started last Saturday. I don't know what happened. I don't know. Originally, Yan Hong was asked to attend the bed that night, but she told her not to do so at night."

"and then?"

"Then they called me over." He Xiang said, "I thought..." She blushed suddenly as she spoke, "Bring me a telegram and tell me to translate it into a telegram and send it out immediately... ..."

"Did you see any fragments of words on the telegram?" Li Rufeng asked.

"I didn't even have time to open it, so he took it back and burned it in front of me." He Xiang said that she was very surprised at that time, and such a thing had never happened before—the handling of the telegram manuscript was always handled by her. In charge, Elder Leng has never burned the draft by himself.

"...By the way, although I didn't see the text of the telegram, the label on the outer skin is Chidian."

"Chidian" is the highest level in the telegraph official document system of the Senate, requiring the communication personnel to deliver the telegram to the recipient as quickly as possible.

The three of them looked at each other. Obviously, the contents of this telegram were not trivial.However, since it is so anxious, why burn it again?

In the next few days, Ning Yun could not extricate herself from the cycle of writing and burning telegrams.If so, until the night before the disappearance.

"...What happened to him the night before?"

"It's nothing different, but I feel that people have become very excited, and even called the two guards and the servants for a meeting..."

"Are there any minutes of the meeting?" Wu Kaidi asked.

"No." He Xiang shook his head, "I'm not even allowed in during the meeting. It seems to be preparing for something important."

All the participants except Mr. Leng himself had turned into icy corpses, and they couldn't say anything.Li Rufeng suddenly thought of a terrible reality. Like him, these two guards were each issued with two revolvers.The firepower is very impressive.

If they were armed, the enemy would have easily killed the two guards if they set up an ambush on the official road. Moreover, from the scene, there was no trace of the two guards shooting, there were no bullet casings at the scene, and there was no gunpowder on their fingers and sleeves. Mark of……

Li Rufeng felt more and more that the burden on his body was heavy.He took a deep breath and asked, "Do you know what Elder Leng and they brought when they set off?"

"I don't know about this. He never told me about his going out." He Xiang said, "But as long as you check the going out records, it will be there."

Wu Kaidi immediately took out the record of going out, and the items carried by Ning Ningyun on the day he went out were impressively registered in the register. Not only the two guards were carrying revolvers, but even the servant and the coachman were equipped with weapons.Obviously, he was prepared to go.

Since it was foreseeable that the meeting would be dangerous, why didn't he inform He Liansheng?The three looked at each other.

Liao Sanniang said: "It would be great if I knew what Mr. Leng saw to be worried."

"In my opinion, nine out of ten it's a letter." Wu Kaidi pondered, "Master Leng seldom goes out, and he doesn't meet outsiders casually. Let's check the letter register."

After checking, a total of 26 letters were sent to Ning Yun's study on Friday.Because the sender and other relevant information were listed in the registration account, they quickly found suspicious letters, and two letters were marked as "no sender".

"These two anonymous letters were sent from the outlet of Delong Bank." Li Rufeng frowned, "I want to ask the buddy, who sent it..."

"Is the letter still there?" Liao Sanniang asked.

"It's not in the archive." He Xiang shook his head, "There's no archive number on it, and there's no handover date—Master Leng didn't hand over the letter."

Needless to say, the letter had either been destroyed or he had hidden it away.
