"I really can't see Mu Tian?" Ji Ruoxi asked extremely disappointed.
Piqué pursed his lips and said with a half-smile: "Really. Forgive me for not being able to help. I really have to say goodbye." He cupped his hands and fists towards Ji Ruoxi and Ouyang Hui and was about to stand up.
A big hand pressed on his shoulder.
Pique turned around quickly and blurted out, "Third Young Master!"
"Brother Liu?" Ji Ruoxi called out next.
Too careless.
Piqué secretly thought that it was a good thing he was the third young master, otherwise he would have fallen into the trap of others. Urban originally occupied a favorable position and acted completely according to the textbook. But he was too careless.
Urban originally sat in the corner, with the motto: Never give your back to the enemy.
I just wanted to find out Urban's purpose for dating him and who was behind him. I was careless for a moment, or maybe I entered an environment I thought I was familiar with, relaxed my vigilance, and sat across from Urban without even thinking about it.
, facing away from the lobby of the cafe.
In a sense, I have already failed once.
Liu Qinghuai did not respond to his surprise and only nodded to Ji Ruoxi.
"Why are you here?" Ji Ruoxi seemed to be full of curiosity about Liu Qinghuai.
"My work unit is nearby. I'm working overtime, so come and have a cup of coffee to refresh myself." Liu Qinghuai said casually.
"Working overtime on weekends is very hard."
"Yes, it's quite hard." Seeing that Liu Qinghuai didn't notice her, Ouyang Hui answered the conversation to make her presence felt.
"No, I'm used to it." Liu Qinghuai's tone was perfunctory.
"Oh, Brother Liu must have something to do with Mr. Peake. We have finished chatting, so we won't disturb you and will leave first." Ji Ruoxi suddenly realized that she was redundant and said in an apologetic tone.
"Yeah, it's time for us to go back. We've been shopping all day." Ouyang Hui shook Ji Ruoxi's arm, "Let's go to my house for dinner. My mom is cooking Suzhou cuisine today, so go and try it. She's really good at it."
"That's good, I like to eat Yangchun noodles made by Aunt Wan." Ji Ruoxi replied.
Ouyang Hui said "Okay, okay" repeatedly. She pulled Ji Ruoxi to stand up, turned towards Pique and Liu Qinghuai, and walked away.
"Would you like to change a place?" Liu Qinghuai lowered his eyebrows and glanced at it, then asked in a low voice.
Pique moved and sat in Urban's original seat, shaking his head gently, "No need. Are you looking for me?"
"yes."
"What happened? Why don't you use channels?" Pique was angry at his mistake just now, but he took his anger out on Liu Qinghuai.
Liu Qinghuai was slightly startled, "I sent the message and was about to go to the agreed place. I didn't expect to meet you here."
"This is not in accordance with the procedure." Pique looked past Liu Qinghuai and rolled his eyes.
The figures of Ji Ruoxi and Ouyang Hui have already left the door on Aidoya Road.
"The procedure is not important, this matter is urgent." Liu Qinghuai's tone was a little anxious.
"No matter how urgent the matter is, we must have procedures in place. Otherwise our system will collapse."
Liu Qinghuai heard the bitterness in Peake's words and was slightly startled. But now it was time to ask for help, so he just said in his mind: Damn arrogant Americans! Then he smiled apologetically, "I'm sorry, I won't do anything.
That’s it.”
Pique waved his hand to show his generosity, "What's the matter?"
"Do you know Lin Xiao?" Liu Qinghuai asked.
"That president of North China Bank? Economist? What?" Peake asked continuously.
"According to reliable information, he is coming to Shanghai to serve as mayor of DaDao City."
"Really? Why hasn't any news come out about such a big event? It should be publicized by the Japanese. How come there isn't even any report in the pro-Japanese newspapers?"
"The information is solid. This person keeps a low profile, never accepts interviews from the media, and his whereabouts are secretive."
Piqué pondered, mentally evaluating Liu Qiuhuai's possible requests or suggestions.
"Secret Order No. 6, punish this person regardless of the consequences."
Piqué raised his eyes and looked at Liu Qinghuai, his eyes full of disbelief. "Reckless?" He thought to himself, there is such a stupid commander, giving such a stupid order. He knew about No. 6, this is the special service
The code name No. 6 assigned to each department in the Far East Theater was the number one figure in the Chinese Theater. This person's orders were very serious and must be implemented, especially for the various agencies stationed in Chongqing and Shanghai.
"He is the leader and can ignore the consequences. You are the executor, don't you think about it too? The cost, consequences, and collateral damage. None of these are within your scope of consideration?"
"We must carry out the order."
"You? Including Mr. Lu?"
"Of course, this order was given directly to him."
"That's interesting. Mr. Lu hasn't thought about this either?"
"Of course he has to consider it. However, you know, he is engaged in strategic intelligence analysis. Our action team is still not sound and does not have the power to carry out this operation at all."
"You came to me to ask me to help you, or to do something?"
"good."
"When will we arrive in Shanghai? Should we take the sea route or the land route? Which pier is the water route?" Pique asked.
Liu Qinghuai looked confused, "There is no specific news."
"You should always have a plan," Pique said with a sneer.
"Of course. We will receive the information in time before the target sets off. We just need to make foolproof preparations and have enough manpower and feasible plans to implement."
"You just said that you don't have enough manpower, so what are the feasible solutions?" Pique's question seemed intentional.
Liu Qinghuai heard the contempt in Pique's words, but he didn't care. Who told us to ask for help now?
"We have a bottom line." Liu Qinghuai's tone became serious.
Pique raised his eyes, twisted the corners of his mouth, and looked at Liu Qinghuai with an expression that he was willing to hear the details.
"Before taking office, ask him to disappear."
"When will you take office?"
"Two weeks later, there are still some key personnel who have not been confirmed, and the team is not complete."
"Then there's still time." Pique looked down at the coffee in front of him and sighed.
"Mr. Peake?" A waiter approached quietly and asked Peake respectfully in a low voice.
"yes."
"I have your phone number. It's a lady named Su. Do you want to pick it up?"
It must be Su Marie, Piqué judged. When he came out, he said he was here to meet friends at Cailemen Coffee, and he specifically said it was not the branch on Yuyuan Road.
Sumary is not only his Margaret in "La Traviata", but also his secretary and his comrade in the Eastern Operation. She usually plays the role of completing tasks that are inconvenient and impossible for male team members. She is also his
girlfriend.
Pique nodded to the waiter and said to Liu Qinghuai, "I have to answer this call."
Liu Qinghuai shook his shoulders.
The waiter bowed and left, going to the bar to get the phone.
"In this way, I will give you all the students from this cooperative institute to help you build an action team. However, I need to identify the infiltrator before that. He is very harmful, and I cannot leave this hidden danger to you.
You are so unethical. This group of students includes Mu Tian."
"Mutian? Is this the same Mutian you used to capture Eiichi Kuai?" Liu Qinghuai was greatly confused.
"Yes, he is helping me find the infiltrator. However, I don't like to hear what you say about using him. In fact, it was me who saved him. It was you and Mr. Lu who used him to stage a golden cicada's escape from its shell.
After all, you are not authentic."
Liu Qinghuai was speechless for a moment and could only stare at Pique bitterly.
"Let's not talk about whether it is authentic or not. If the intelligence comes in time, my people can intercept and kill the target before it enters Shanghai. This is the best and has a high success rate. If it is too late to intercept and kill, don't consider it at the station and dock. First of all, they
We will take strict precautions. If we miss a hit, it will be easy to alert the enemy, and it will be even more difficult to take action. Our focus should be on where the target will stay after arriving in Shanghai. I think it should be Hongkou in the Japanese-occupied area." Peake.
He kept talking without caring about Liu Qinghuai's reaction.
"I don't think so." Liu Qinghuai probably couldn't bear his arrogance anymore. I have also served as a reconnaissance company commander in the regular army. What's the point of showing off, and you are the only one who can analyze it? With this little ninety-nine in mind, he objected unceremoniously.
Opinion.
"What do you mean by not necessarily?" Pique asked back, hearing different opinions, and the tone was so disdainful, he was immediately incredulous.
"If it were me, I would choose the concession, the French Concession." Liu Qinghuai's voice was not loud, but he was firm.
Pique stared, speechless for a moment.
The waiter came over with the phone, and Pique scolded Liu Qinghuai and took the phone.
After the waiter left, he said to the phone, "Honey, tell me."
Sumary said eagerly on the phone that Johnson was looking for her. She said it was an urgent matter, but she didn't tell Johnson where Peake was. She said she would help and try to contact him. Johnson said that if he finds you, he will tell you immediately.
Go to the Wantoubang prison to find him.
Piqué put down the phone and said to Liu Qinghuai: "That's it. Let's mobilize your people. Determine the target's possible hiding place, covering the entire Shanghai. Even the Chinese community cannot give up."
After hearing what he said, Liu Qinghuai felt better.
"I have to go, please contact me at any time." Pique stood up and glanced towards the bar, looking for the waiter to get the phone back. Unexpectedly, his eyes suddenly went straight.
