Qi Yue got out of the car and walked across the road.
The emperor's motorcade stopped on the east side of the road.
Qi Yue's car was parked on the west side of the road.
Gao Bin stood beside the car and watched from a distance.
At this time, all the accompanying guards had gotten off the car.
Pay attention to the movements around you.
"What's up?"
The captain of the guard stopped Qi Yue.
Even the police cannot approach the emperor casually.
Qi Yue said: "There is something wrong with the manhole cover under His Majesty's car."
The captain of the guard asked: "What's wrong?"
Qi Yue explained: "The manhole cover collapsed in half and I forgot to replace it before. In order to avoid accidents, it is best to ask the driver to drive forward."
If the manhole cover fails to bear the load and the wheel falls off, the driver will be in danger.
The captain of the guard did not dare to neglect, and quickly came to the Cadillac, bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the people from the Secret Service Department said that the manhole cover under the car collapsed. To prevent an accident, please leave as soon as possible."
"knew."
Emperor Kant motioned to the driver to drive.
The driver said: "Your Majesty, if you want to visit Marubei Co., Ltd., it is most convenient to get off the bus here."
Emperor Kant nodded: "If you didn't remind me, I almost forgot."
The president of Maruben Co., Ltd., leading a group of senior managers, has been waiting at the door for a long time. It is a great honor to welcome the emperor to visit.
The captain of the guard could not say anything more.
After the emperor got out of the car, the driver did the same thing when moving the car.
Moreover, the appearance of the manhole cover is intact and there is no sign of collapse.
Gao Kejian had no choice. He just had doubts and did not dare to interfere too much with the emperor's schedule without conclusive evidence.
If you make a mistake, you will be passive.
The driver got out of the car, walked to the rear door, and opened the door for Emperor Kant.
He had to pass through the manhole cover to get from the cab to the rear door. His walking posture was very strange, with his right leg raised very high, as if he would fall down heavily.
The question is, is it necessary to use so much force when walking on a manhole cover? No one would walk hard on a manhole cover, unless it is a naughty child.
Qi Yue was very close to the manhole cover, and he smelled a familiar smell - it was stinky vine!
Stinky vine is a plant that grows in the south.
Why is there stinky vine here?
Qi Yue suddenly woke up. The smell of vines came from underground, and someone was hiding underground!
If the guess is correct, it is most likely Wang Chunlin, the owner of Xiaoxiang Garden, who has the motive to assassinate Emperor Kant!
I can think of this thanks to the example of Erluzi, who escaped from the sewer.
There are security guards all over the Central Street, and snipers are hidden at the commanding heights. Even if you have a chance to sneak in, you may be killed by random gunfire before you even take out your gun.
What methods can be used to ensure success?
Using bombs is the first choice!
Wang Chunlin, or his men, should be hiding in the manhole at this moment, just waiting for a signal from the ground to detonate the bomb immediately!
I guess I was worried about being discovered by the police dog, so I carried the stink vine with me.
People are hiding at the bottom of the well and cannot confirm the situation on the ground.
For the assassination operation to be successful, two prerequisites must be met - the emperor's special car is parked on the manhole cover, and someone gives the code to detonate the bomb.
Who can park this Cadillac on a manhole cover?
Who has the chance to send the signal first?
Without a doubt, only this driver!
Qi Yue was so close that he blew up Emperor Kant and became a burial victim himself.
These thoughts are only in my mind for a moment.
There is no room for him to think too much now.
Qi Yue blocked the driver: "Wait a minute!"
The driver was stunned: "What are you doing?"
Qi Yue stared into his eyes: "The manhole cover has collapsed, be careful of falling."
"It's okay, I'll be careful."
The driver forced his foot to step on the manhole cover.
Qi Yue had no choice but to knock down the driver.
In the eyes of outsiders, the two of them each took a step forward, as if they accidentally bumped into each other.
Emperor Kande frowned: "Why is this Wang Xutao so clumsy..."
Wang Xutao is the driver's name.
The captain of the guard opened the car door: "Your Majesty, please get out of the car and be careful where you step."
Surrounded by officials, Emperor Kant walked towards Maruno Co., Ltd.
Gao Kejian knew that Qi Yue was not a careless person. How could he collide with the driver on such an important occasion.
He winked at Liu Wenlong.
Qi Yue quickly stood up and touched the pistol at his waist with one hand. The driver Wang Xutao also stood up and brushed the dust on his pants.
Qi Yue shouted in a low voice: "Don't move!"
He knew very well that it was impossible for the driver to get away with it. There were as many as eighty agents at the scene. These people didn't have sand in their eyes. They would notice any abnormality at the slightest sign of trouble.
Among them was the head of the secret service, Deputy Director of the National Police Agency Junichiro Shibuya, who was sitting in the car at the moment, looking at the two of them thoughtfully.
"Police officer, I am His Majesty the Emperor's official driver, you have no right to order me!"
Wang Xutao said pretending to be dissatisfied.
Qi Yue said coldly: "I warn you, if you dare to move, you will be responsible for the consequences!"
Liu Wenlong whispered a few words to the captain of the guard.
The captain of the guard glanced at Wang Xutao in surprise, and then waved to another driver: "The manhole cover has collapsed. Go and move His Majesty's special car. Oh, Lao Wang suddenly feels unwell and can't drive."
Soon, the Cadillac car changed its parking space.
Qi Yue ordered: "Come on two people, open the manhole cover, and everyone step back!"
Gao Kejian asked in a low voice: "Are you sure there is a problem?"
Qi Yue hesitated and said: "If there is no problem, will His Majesty the Emperor blame us?"
Gao Kejian smiled: "At most, it's just a reprimand, not a blame. Speaking of which, we are also thinking about the safety of His Majesty the Emperor."
Qi Yue said: "I suspect there are explosives under the well..."
Gao Kejian immediately ordered: "What are you waiting for? Open the manhole cover and check it out!"
The agent found an iron hook and opened the cast-iron manhole cover. The well was empty, with a few black stains remaining on the walls, like mud at the bottom of the well.
After hearing the report, Gao Kejian stepped forward and leaned over to look at it for a while.
"Someone was hiding at the bottom of the well, just waiting for a signal from the ground, and then detonating the bomb. When he found out what had happened, he hurriedly defused the bomb and fled. He came up from the ladder. The mud is evidence! Chief Gao, please order the arrest of the driver and send
People blocked the outlet of the sewer pipe and arrested the rebels who planned to murder the emperor!"
Junichiro Shibuya said from the side.
Gao Kejian thought for a while: "Chief Shibuya, if this matter becomes a big deal, it will not be conducive to social stability. Moreover, if it alarms His Majesty the Emperor, it will definitely affect the next trip. I suggest that the news be blocked and the investigation should be conducted secretly.
!”
Shibuya Junichiro nodded: "That's fine..."
Gao Kejian ordered: "Captain Liu, you personally lead the team and must bring the rebels to justice!"
Liu Wenlong agreed and hurried away with the people.
Underground pipelines extend in all directions, with at least dozens of exits. It is not an easy task to catch the person at the bottom of the well. Fortunately, it is a martial law period and soldiers are everywhere on duty, so the difficulty can be relatively reduced.
When Emperor Kant came out of Marubo Co., Ltd., the head guard did not tell him the truth. He only said that suspicious people were found nearby and it would be best to leave first.
Wang Xutao was taken away for investigation, but he was also excused on the grounds of sudden illness.
Emperor Kant didn't know how to get to the bottom of everything.
As for the itinerary, it was naturally Junichiro Shibuya who had the final say. As the deputy director of the National Police Agency, he was fully responsible for the security work during Emperor Kant's inspection of Binjiang.
Ten minutes later.
Emperor Kant's motorcade leaves Central Street.
The people from the Secret Service Department stayed behind to continue searching for clues.
Gao Kejian mobilized a team of soldiers, bringing flashlights and other practical tools. Led by a warrant officer, they went down the ladder to the bottom of the well to search for traces of the rebels.
Daping asked from the side: "Section Chief, do you want to search the area?"
Gao Kejian looked around: "It's not necessary. The Central Street is so strictly inspected. It's impossible for the rebels to choose the exit here."
Qi Yue said: "I think the exit is at least fifty meters away."
Gao Kejian nodded: "Yes. Theoretically, the exit may be further away. I heard that the underground pipelines on Central Street have been connected to the Fujiadian area..."
Junichiro Shibuya came closer and looked at the collar badge on Qi Yue's shoulder: "Lieutenant, what's your name?"
Qi Yue stood at attention and saluted: "Report to the deputy director, Qi Yue of the Secret Service Section."
Junichiro Shibuya asked: "Just now, how did you discover the doubt?"
Qi Yue said: "The suspicion was discovered by Section Chief Gao. He was just following orders."
"Section Chief Gao is indeed extraordinary. May I ask you, what are the doubts?"
Junichiro Shibuya turned and asked Gao Kejian.
Gao Kejian said: "Commissioner, please take a look. The stains on the manhole cover are suspicious points."
Shibuya Junichiro looked at it carefully for a while: "It looks like the mud at the bottom of a well. It has been dried by the sun and the color is lighter. Section Chief Gao has a good eye."
"Yes, it is indeed mud..."
Gao Kejian suddenly closed his mouth mid-sentence.
The appearance of mud at the bottom of the well cover indicates that people hiding in the well have come up.
The question is, why did he come up?
Looking at it this way, the exit might really be nearby.
As for why the person hiding at the bottom of the well came up, and how to ensure that he was not discovered, the truth will come to light only if the person is caught.
"So, you should still search the area."
Junichiro Shibuya also thought of this.
Gao Kejian called a police lieutenant to add: "Take someone immediately and check all the nearby manholes to see if there are any traces of being opened!"
"yes!"
The police lieutenant hurried away with his replacement.
Junichiro Shibuya said: "Lieutenant Qi, I'm still curious. You planned to check the well but didn't get permission. How did you find the abnormality?"
Qi Yue explained the reason.
But he did not fail to mention the smelly vine.
"Calm down and decisive, the Secret Service Department is indeed full of talents!"
Junichiro Shibuya showed admiration.
Qi Yue said respectfully: "You are very grateful. I only did my due duty in my humble position."
Junichiro Shibuya said: "Some people do well in fulfilling their responsibilities, and some do not do well."
He paused briefly and continued: "If it had been someone else, this result might not have happened. What happened today is thanks to your efforts to turn the tide, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous. The Manchu Empire will not treat loyal and brave people badly, and I will personally take credit for you!"
"
"Thank you, Deputy Director!"
Qi Yue saluted with a raised hand.
Junichiro Shibuya gave some words of encouragement.
Then left in a car.
…
The police lieutenant returned with his men.
The manhole was inspected and no abnormalities were found.
Gao Kejian said: "It seems that the exit should still be on the periphery..."
At this time, a lieutenant came over and said respectfully: "Section Chief Gao, I have just received an order from the top to lift the martial law on Central Street."
Gao Kejian said: "Tell your superiors that the National Police Agency is searching for a suspect and the martial law cannot be lifted. It will take at least another hour or so."
The lieutenant gave a military salute, turned around and left.
The military and police conduct special joint operations, and all parties must be informed of the lifting of martial law.
Qi Yue said: "Section chief, I will take people around."
Gao Kejian nodded: "Go."
Qi Yue called Jiang Bin, Zhao Zhenhai and Daping to search along the road.
On the way, Jiang Bin said to Qi Yue: "Look at this, you are going to be promoted again."
"How can I see it?"
Qi Yue looked around while driving.
Jiang Bin said: "There is no greater achievement than rescuing the driver. As the deputy director has said, it is to turn the tide and so on."
Qi Yue smiled and said: "You said, if you are promoted too quickly, you will be hated by others?"
Zhao Zhenhai said from the side: "How could it be possible? Everyone is happy for you."
Daping also said: "Really, Officer Qi, you are very popular. Some people will hate you if others get promoted. If you get promoted, everyone will be happy for you."
Jiang Bin said: "Daping, don't talk nonsense. The Special Intelligence Section is united as one. Whoever gets promoted will be hated? If the section chief hears this, I will have to put you in solitary confinement!"
Daping quickly said: "I'm just making an analogy, using an analogy."
"For example, if you don't know how to hit something round, don't hit it randomly..."
Jiang Bin sighed inwardly.
He was somewhat agitated.
I had the opportunity to see Emperor Kant shattered to pieces.
It happened that Qi Yue discovered it.
The intelligence agents under Qiu Weihan avoid horizontal connections. The advantage of this is that even if a certain line is exposed, other people will not be implicated.
So far, Jiang Bin does not know Qi Yue's identity. He has never even met Qiu Weihan. If there is any situation, he will contact Qiu Weihan through the online line.
Jiang Bin has a lot on his mind and is very confident in his language skills. He plans to find an opportunity to instigate Qi Yue. Looking at it today, it is impossible.
This is a determined traitor!
We have been with each other for a long time and understand each other very well.
Jiang Bin knows that Qi Yue will be a hidden danger. The stronger the opponent's ability, the greater the danger he faces. This is obvious.
Therefore, Jiang Bin came up with an idea: find an opportunity to kill Qi Yue!
As for the friendship between the two, in the face of national justice, it can only become a fleeting thing. With Jiang Bin's ability, it will always be easier to plot against someone who is unprepared for him.
You must find a suitable opportunity for this kind of thing.
Jiang Bin thought to himself that this was just his own whim. It was not certain whether he would find an opportunity, and there was no need to report this matter to his superiors.
Besides, Qi Yue is not a big shot.
Only when you assassinate a big shot, you must report to your superiors for instructions.
