"Since someone has kindness to us, it is right to repay the favor. Leave this matter to me. Don't get involved too deeply. Besides, you don't have convenient conditions." Lu Ming protected Sheng Muyi in his own way.

Although Lu Ming has been helping the Communist Party, he really doesn't want his family and people around him to do this, because it's too dangerous, and if he doesn't do it well, he will be jailed or even shot.

Of course Sheng Muyi has a protective umbrella, but it also depends on how deep she is involved. If it is too deep, the protective umbrella may lose its effect.

Lu Ming briefly talked about Hou Liang's situation. In fact, he also heard what Dai Li said, so he didn't know the specific situation.

"I'll keep an eye on this matter, and I'll tell you immediately if there's any situation, you don't do anything, just wait for my news." Lu Ming was afraid that Sheng Muyi would act without permission and cause disaster.

"Okay, then I'll listen to you, but you have to use your strength." Sheng Muyi clenched her fists and said, shaking her arms up and down.

Although Sheng Muyi inquired about some situations from Yuan Ziyuan in the past two days, Yuan Ziyuan was only a financial person and had no access to the core secrets of the Fuxing Society, so the information he provided was basically worthless.

Huang Yanning knew the secret, but he hadn't seen anyone for a while. When he asked Yuan Ziyuan, he said that it was Dai Li who didn't let the task force go home, and Huang Yanning was staying at the station for a while.

Only then did Sheng Muyi realize the seriousness of the matter, and it seemed that she could only ask Lu Ming for help.

The next morning, Zhang Ziyang formally reported to the bureau and decided to file a case to investigate Ning Xiner's disappearance.

The procedures for Lu Ming at the Fuxingshe Shanghai station were even simpler. He filed a case as soon as he wanted to, and he didn't need to do paper work at all.

An Gonggen has mobilized all his informants in Shanghai to take action, as well as his insiders in Japan, to find out if people from the Manchurian Railway kidnapped Ning Xiner.

Zhang Ziyang came to Lu Ming's apartment at noon, the two simply had lunch at Badawan Restaurant, and immediately started to act.

Although the Japanese are the most suspicious in this case, other possibilities cannot be ignored, so Lu Ming and Zhang Ziyang decided to visit the big bosses in Shanghai one by one.

Throughout the afternoon, they visited Du Yuesheng, Gu Zhuxuan and others, but they did not get any useful clues, but both of them agreed that they would try their best to help find clues.

What Du Yuesheng said was very clear, if someone dared to break ground on the head of the Shanghai Gang, it was not a matter of the Cao Gang, but a matter of face for all the gangs.

There are dozens of gang organizations in Shanghai, large and small. Although there are often conflicts of interest among them, they are consistent externally.

From the gang's point of view, the most well-informed person in Shanghai is Du Yuesheng, whose disciples are all over Shanghai, and Gu Zhuxuan, who controls all the rickshaw pullers and taxi drivers in Shanghai.

News is often flowing, and these talents are the real eyes and ears of a city.

After running for half a day, although I didn't get any clear clues, I did everything that should be done. I worshiped every god in every temple. As for which temple will be effective, it's hard to say.

At noon the next day, Lu Ming met Qian Tian at a Japanese restaurant in the International Settlement.

He told the story, and then asked Qian Tian if he had heard anything.

Qian Tian shook his head, he didn't know about this at all, and he didn't know who Ning Xiner was.

However, he promised to inquire after he went back. According to Lu Ming's introduction, he also believed that the suspicion of the manchuria special work case was relatively high.

"I heard that Muto was promoted to general, is there such a thing?" Lu Ming asked with a smile.

"You also know? Muto's official fortune is prosperous. In just a few years, he is like riding a rocket. But you may not know that he first joined the army and was sent to the United States to study by the military department. So did I. I just found out about this situation, otherwise he would not have been promoted so quickly." Qian Tian introduced.

"Oh, he has been trained by the Japanese military for a long time. No wonder he seldom communicates with people in the United States." Only then did Lu Ming realize that the Muto he met in the United States was actually not an ordinary student.

"Why is the Japanese military so keen on fighting? Because it allows them to get promoted quickly and make a fortune, but who would think about the life and death of thousands of ordinary people? The war was all triggered by these madmen." Qian Tian said angrily.

Lu Ming smiled wryly and drank a glass of Japanese beer.

Qian Tian's words may be reasonable for the Japanese military, but Lu Ming does not think that the origin of the war is just some people wanting to get promoted and get rich.

In Lu Ming's view, the reasons for the war are complex, and the most fundamental reason is the leader's desire for territory and wealth.

This is also the basic point of view of Lu Ming's American teacher Frank, who comprehensively inspected human wars.

"Yesterday, I heard the consul mutter something, saying that people from Mantie attacked you?" Qian Tian asked.

"Indeed, it happened the day before yesterday. They wanted to capture me alive, but I fooled them." Lu Ming sneered.

"This morning, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Nanjing government submitted a protest to the Japanese embassy. The ambassador asked our consul to consult with the Manchurian Railway Shanghai office. Guess what they answered? They said it was just a misunderstanding."

"Haha, you answered so easily, why didn't you explain the misunderstanding?" Lu Ming raised his eyebrows.

"Yes, they answered so easily. Our consulate is powerless, so we have to report the truth to the ambassador, and then ask the foreign minister to communicate with the highest level of the Manchuria Railway. It is estimated that it will be nothing. Now the military is in charge of politics, and the government is more and more restrained. The more powerless I am, I don't know what will happen in the future." Qian Tian worried.

"You Japanese rulers should carefully read the history of China's Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms period. At that time, China established many military regimes, and they fought against each other all year round. As a result, the country almost perished." Lu Ming said earnestly.

"We Japan also has a similar historical period, but human beings are the most stupid, and never know how to learn lessons from history." Qian Tian couldn't help but sighed.

After breaking up with Qian Tian, ​​Lu Ming went to see An Gonggen and took him to the Shanghai Army General Hospital.

As soon as the two arrived at the entrance of the hospital, agents from the Fuxing Society greeted them.

"Mr. Lu, why did you come to the hospital? Do you want to see a doctor?"

"No, I came to see how the Communist Party rescued him. How is it now? Are you awake?" Lu Ming asked.

"Oh, it looks like he's still unconscious," the agent said.

"Brothers are guarding here day and night, it's hard enough." Lu Ming laughed.

He saw no less than ten agents of the Renaissance Society scattered around, but none of them showed up.

"Is there any way? Isn't this to prevent the underground party from robbing people? The station master Weng issued a death order. Whoever lets the Communists escape will be shot to death." The agent smiled wryly.

"Okay, find a place to rest, be smart, don't just stand there, I'll go up and take a look." Lu Ming laughed and went into the hospital.

"Yes, sir, go slowly." The agent retreated to hide near the gate.

"These guys are really dedicated. Does a person who has been tortured to the last breath by them need to go to war?" An Gonggen sneered.

"Maybe they think they are very clever, thinking that the underground party organization will come to rescue their comrades. They are fishing." Lu Ming laughed.

"If the people of the Communist Party were as stupid as they thought, they would have been extinct long ago. Why did they let them mobilize so many people?" An Gonggen sneered.

The two came to the intensive care ward on the third floor. There were two special agents sitting outside the ward reading newspapers. When they saw someone coming, they immediately put their hands on the gun handles in their waists. After they saw that it was Lu Ming and An Gong. Root, then he took his hand back.

"Hello, Commander Lu, and Captain An." The two stood at attention.

Lu Ming looked at Hou Liang who was lying on the bed through the glass on the door, and he really didn't move.

"I want to go in and take a look, you guys open the door." Lu Ming said.

"But..." one agent hesitated.

"But what? Did the station master Weng order no one to go in?" Lu Ming asked sternly.

"Yes, Mr. Lu, Mr. Weng indeed ordered so." The agent said.

"Then do you think I'm included in anyone mentioned by Station Master Weng?" Lu Ming looked at the two agents with stern eyes.

"Not included, absolutely not included." The two agents waved their hands again and again.

"Officer Lu, you are a general. According to your official position, you are still above the station master." One of the agents added.

The two agents trembled all over. They will never forget the painful lesson of Lu Ming suspending their wages for two months in a fit of anger. It was the darkest period since the establishment of Fuxingshe Shanghai Station.

They all know that it's okay to offend anyone in the Fuxingshe, but you can't offend the God of Wealth.
