Chapter 1192 Return to Zhoushan

Han Zhengshan has been working in the public sector for so many years and has seen many dangerous scenes, but he has never encountered the strange situation that he was kidnapped during the investigation of a case, and the person who kidnapped him was one of the victims of the case.

situation. What’s even more strange is that the main reason for kidnapping him is that they don’t want him to continue to pursue the truth of the case. This is simply unbelievable to Han Zhengshan. If his hands and feet were not shackled, he really wanted to jump up.

Slap the guy in front of you to see if he is possessed by ghosts and would actually take such an inappropriate approach.

However, Lin Nan knew very well that with Han Zhengshan's status, it was difficult for him to have enough political sensitivity to view the impact of the fire on both the Ming Dynasty and Han Dynasty. He was even convinced that if Han Zhengshan's boss knew about this situation, he would also

They will also try to prevent the investigation from continuing. The so-called truth of the case cannot save the face of the Zhejiang government. It will only reignite disputes in the situation that has finally calmed down. This kind of development is definitely not what Zhejiang senior officials want to see.

status.

From an objective point of view, Han Zhengshan is not a bad person, but he is indeed a stumbling block that must be cleared up as soon as possible. Lin Nan does not want to kill him, but he will never tolerate his continued presence in Hangzhou. On the contrary, Han Zhengshan

After Han Zhengshan gets to Zhoushan, he can take the opportunity to say something nice to the commander-in-chief and see if he can be sent to other overseas colonies far away from the Ming Dynasty to serve. But if Han Zhengshan still refuses to give in and wants to commit suicide, then

There really was no way anyone could save him.

Seeing that most of the night had passed, Lin Nan and Pan Yan were a little tired, so they lay down on the table and closed their eyes for a while. When they fell asleep, some of their men came in and woke them up, saying that it was already past the fifth watch.

Already.

"Pack up and get ready to go!" Lin Nan woke up and immediately gave the order: "Clean the house, don't miss anything!"

A thought suddenly flashed through Pan Yan's mind, and he suggested: "Brother Lin, why not leave one or two of that woman's things here."

"Why is this..." Lin Nan reacted halfway through the question: "You mean to create the illusion that they elope? But the credibility is a bit low, isn't it? A government official gave up his career and eloped with a prostitute? He

It’s not like he can’t pay the ransom money, so who would believe that he would secretly abduct a prostitute?”

"People will only believe the facts they want to believe." Pan Yan has a different view: "If someone wants to find a seemingly reasonable reason for their disappearance, it will definitely be more credible than if they were both kidnapped.

many."

Lin Nan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Brother Pan is right. If you don't leave any clues, it will make people think in a bad direction."

Lin Nan immediately called one of his men in and asked him to collect all the valuable gold, silver and soft goods in the house, and then select a few pieces of seasonal clothing and pack them away together. This way, when latecomers check this place, it should be easy for them to

The impression that "Han Zhengshan left on his own initiative" would not associate his disappearance with the kidnapping.

The carriage Lin Nan came in was parked outside the gate of the courtyard. His men had already taken the packhorse out and harnessed it. Then they carried Han Zhengshan and Cui'e, who could not move, into the carriage, and roughly covered them with two quilts.

Just stay and that's it.

Pan Yan looked a little nervous and said, "What if I encounter an interrogation when I leave the city?"

Lin Nan was very confident about this: "No, the Ming army defending the city at Wangjiangmen will automatically ignore our existence. The hundreds of taels of silver every month are not given in vain."

Most of Haihan's people and property entering and exiting Hangzhou came in and out through Wangjiang Gate in the east of the city, so they paid a lot of "filial piety" to the Ming army defending the city every month. To collect money and do things, Haihan naturally went in and out of Wangjiang Gate.

You will enjoy the exemption from inspection, and you only need to say hello to the Ming army defending the city.

Lin Nan's confidence was quickly verified. When the group quickly arrived at Wangjiangmen, Lin Nan sent his men to greet the Ming army. Then when it was their turn, the Ming soldiers on the roadside

Jun directly waved them to pass quickly without any intention of stopping the carriage to take a look. Han Zhengshan and Cui'e in the carriage were both conscious and knew that they would not be able to escape after leaving the city, but they did not

There was no way to make any noise, because in addition to their mouths being gagged and their hands and feet cuffed, they also had two cold blades placed on their necks, so they didn't dare to make any movement at all.

After Lin Nan and his team left the city, they divided into two groups. One group escorted the two unlucky men straight to Tongsheng Pier, while the other group went to look for Gu Hui. Originally, they didn't know where Gu Hui lived, but it was still yesterday.

The result of Han Zhengshan's late trial was that when he was investigating the fire case, Han Zhengshan had visited Gu Hui's home, but little did he know that he would help Haihan arrest Gu Hui in the future.

Gu Hui can go to a place like Bichun Garden to be free and happy, and naturally there is no one else at home. The environment where he lives is relatively complicated. Almost all the migrant workers on the dock live here, and the large shanty houses are their residences. Lin Nan

After leading the team to search for a while, they found the small courtyard where Gu Hui lived.

It gets dark late in the winter, and there hasn't been much business at Tongsheng Pier recently, so Gu Hui is still asleep in the house at this time. Lin Nan didn't intend to knock on the door, so he asked his men to climb over the wall and opened the door, and then several people touched it

He went to the door, confirmed that there was someone in the house, inserted a sharp knife into the crack of the door and lifted the door bolt. A group of people swarmed in and pinned Gu Hui, who had just woken up, to the bed, unable to move.

"Gu Hui, your matter has been exposed, come with us!" Lin Nan, who had already changed into official clothes, did not give Gu Hui a chance to argue. He motioned to his subordinates to shackle his hands and feet, and then directly raised the issue.

Bed.

Before Gu Hui could open his mouth to call for help, someone had already stuffed a ball of rag into his mouth, and he was immediately speechless. Two strong men, one on the left and one on the right, clamped his arms and immediately

Dragging him out. Gu Hui struggled desperately in fear. When Lin Nan saw this, he ordered two more men to join in, grabbing his legs. The four of them lifted him up and left without stopping.

Occasionally, migrant workers who got up early in this shantytown encountered this scene, and were shouted back by a deep and powerful "Yamen is doing business, and those who have nothing to do with it should stay away."

This place is already outside the city of Hangzhou, so Lin Nan doesn't have to worry about doing things, and just resorts to violent means to kidnap people. There is no official security agency in this place, because it is not far from the city of Hangzhou, so the nearest inspection department outside the city

They were several miles away, but it was a dark place under the lamp. The group of people carried Gu Hui out of the migrant workers' area, but they did not encounter any obstacles.

There will be at least one or two ships belonging to the Haihan Security Department parked on the shore at Tongsheng Wharf all year round in case of emergency. These ships will not show off as Haihan, but as foreign merchants.

As a cover, Pan Yan and another team escorted the two prisoners to the dock smoothly and boarded one of the sailboats. The two prisoners were taken to the bottom cabin and hidden in the mezzanine of the cabin specially designed to hold prisoners. In this way, even if

Even if someone boarded the ship, it would be difficult to find out that there were "private goods" on board. Pan Yan didn't wait long on the deck when he saw Lin Nan's team rushing over from a distance.

"Fortunately, I lived up to my command and caught the man without much trouble." Lin Nan gasped for air, and as he spoke, he motioned to his men to get Gu Hui into the cabin.

"The three of us are in place, let's set off back to Zhoushan!" Pan Yan thought about how his trip to Hangzhou was really hasty. He only spent two nights in Hangzhou city, and he didn't have time to see many local scenic spots and historic sites.

Look, I still have some regrets in my heart. But the night yesterday was really exciting, which makes up for it to a certain extent.

After such a big thing happened, Lin Nan naturally had to go back with the ship and report the unexpected situation to his superiors. However, his people did not need to evacuate Hangzhou. Most of them would return to the city and continue to lurk. The government would treat these few people.

How to respond to the individual's disappearance, and whether anyone will quietly continue the investigation of the fire case, these will be the goals they continue to pay attention to. If this matter cannot be eliminated, then the Ministry of Security may have to organize several similar events in the future.

action.

Since the fire incident had just passed and the aftermath had only subsided in the past few days, there were not many passenger ships and people on the pier. Standing on the ship, you could still see the ruins of the burned warehouse in the distance. The sky had just dawned.

The ship then left Tongsheng Pier and headed downstream along the Qiantang River.

The voyage from Tongsheng Pier to Zhoushan Dinghai Port is about 200 nautical miles. With the speed of this lucky ship, it takes about two days. However, it would be a waste of resources to go back with an empty ship, so we docked in Shaoxing on the first day.

While spending the night at a dock in Linshan Town, Lin Nan also organized a trip to the shore to purchase a batch of Shaoxing rice wine, fermented bean curd, Rizhu tea and other local specialties, and transported them back to Dinghai Port. These items are generally not resold.

After being shipped back to Hainan, most of them will become limited edition products specially provided by the chief. In order to make up for Pan Yan's unexpectedly interrupted vacation, Lin Nan specially ordered a banquet from a restaurant in the town and sent it to the ship to celebrate this operation.

be able to end successfully.

However, the three people imprisoned in the mezzanine of the cabin were not so comfortable. In order to make the mezzanine more concealed, the width of the mezzanine was less than two feet. The three people were wrapped in quilts and thrown in. They were almost stuck and unable to move. Every half day

They were taken out to give them water and food, went to the toilet, and then were put back in. The mezzanine where they were staying was almost at the bottom of the cabin. It was very bumpy and the air was stuffy. Once the ship was covered, there was no trace of air at all.

Light, being confined in this environment for a long time is really a great torture.

When preparing to set off the next day, the sea conditions were not very good, so the ship stayed in Shaoxing Prefecture for another half day, waiting for the weather to improve before setting off. By the time they returned to Dinghai Port, nearly the time they had set out had passed.

Three days.

Although he had not left Dinghai Port for a long time, Pan Yan had a sense of security in returning to his home territory. He himself also found it a bit funny. Although he was a citizen of the Ming Dynasty, he was not as good as staying in Hangzhou.

Returning to Zhoushan Zizi, this difference should not have appeared to him. Seeing the huge warships that did not belong to the Ming Dynasty parked in the harbor, Pan Yan felt a different kind of pride, as if he was already in the Haihan camp.

But he also knows that after the spring starts in two months, the Haihan fleet will go north again. By then, he will have to return to Pi Island to serve Dongjiang Town. By then, his relationship with Haihan will be at best

Allies will no longer be as distant as they are now.

The sudden return of Lin Nan and his group did not have time to notify the Dinghai Port Management Committee in advance. After the ship docked, someone hurried to notify Shi Diwen, who was in charge of local administrative and security affairs. It happened that Wang Tom was also discussing with him

After receiving the news, they rushed to the dock together to hear Lin Nan's face-to-face report as soon as possible.

The three prisoners were also carried off the ship. However, due to being held in the mezzanine of the ship for too long, the three prisoners' physical condition became very weak. Only Han Zhengshan could barely stand up and looked around with blank eyes.

situation.

Of course, the first thing Han Zhengshan noticed was the armed fleet docked neatly at the dock. Looking at the red and blue flags hanging on the bows and masts, Han Zhengshan also realized that this was probably the Zhoushan Island occupied by the Haihan people in the East China Sea.

A few days ago, when the Haihan army came to the city, the government not only deployed all the troops in the city to defend the city, but even the policemen in the yamen went up to the city wall with single swords and water and fire sticks. At that time, Han Zhengshan was also lucky enough to watch from a distance from the crenellations of the city wall.

He went to the Haihan Fleet operating on the Qiantang River. But the situation he saw at that time was not at the same level as the visual impact brought by the close viewing now. There was a ship ten feet away from where he stood.

Here you can clearly see the densely packed gun windows on the side of the huge Haihan battleship. It is no wonder that the navies of all the capitals in Hangzhou Bay collapsed at the first touch and were unable to stop the action of the Haihan battleship.

Haihan's military camp was built not far from the pier. On the pier, you could hear the uniform slogans coming from the troops during drills. Han Zhengshan's face turned pale because he knew that since he had been taken to Zhoushan, he was probably really

There was no chance of survival. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but glared at Cui'e who was still slumped on the ground next to him. If this woman hadn't been so talkative and nosy, saying that there was something behind the fire, how could he have ended up like this?

situation.

When Han Zhengshan was thinking wildly, he heard Gu Hui suddenly shout: "Boss Lin, help me!"

Linde was standing behind Wang Tom and Shi Diwen, but at this time he looked downcast and submissive, not like a bossy wealthy businessman at all. Although he heard Gu Hui's shout, he only looked at him sideways.

I glanced over and had no intention of answering.
