Warlord's House.
In the middle of the night, the coldness of early winter has quietly sneaked into the silence.
The phone by the bed rang, and the ringing was extremely rapid.
Like a sharp bayonet.
Immediately tore a hole in the peaceful and quiet air.
As the phone rang, Lu Huai quickly woke up.
It is his instinct to maintain a clear brain under any circumstances.
Hearing the sound of the phone, Ye Chu also opened his eyes.
Lu Huai answered the phone: "Who is it?"
There was a slightly anxious voice from an agent.
He opened his mouth: "Three young masters, something has happened."
Lu Huai's expression was gloomy: "What's the matter?"
Lu Huai recognized his voice. This agent came from the Shanghai Secret Service Main Station.
The agent said: "Station Master Su hasn't contacted the agent station for a day."
Lu Huai squeezed the receiver, his expression darker.
Ye Chu noticed Lu Huai's strangeness, but she did not hear the voice on the other end of the phone clearly.
The agent continued: "I went to Station Master Su's apartment tonight."
He paused, and then said: "In the home of Station Master Su, the furnishings are as usual."
This voice immediately struck the silent night.
It seemed that a heavy alarm was sounded in the deepening crisis.
After hearing these words, Lu Huai already knew the whereabouts of Poppy.
She must have been taken away by Dai Shinan.
Lu Huai thought for a moment and said, "From now on, this news will be blocked."
"We cannot let anyone know about the disappearance of Station Master Su."
"As long as there are suspicious people, get rid of them immediately."
The agent's voice tightened: "Yes, the third master."
They want to make sure that there can be no suspicious elements in the Shanghai spy station.
Even the smallest details can affect the implementation of the Mist Plan.
In this mission, only success is allowed, not failure.
Lu Huai hung up the phone. He knew very well that after Dai Shinan took the poppy, the Mist Project had already reached a crucial step.
Ye Chu asked: "Who called?"
Lu Huai looked at Ye Chu without hesitation: "The people at the secret service station can't reach Poppy."
Ye Chu's heart tightened, and what she was worried about finally happened.
She clenched her teeth and felt cold and worried.
Ye Chu had long understood what role Poppy played in the Mist Project.
Or in other words, they already knew from the moment the Mist Project began to execute.
Poppy's departure from Shanghai is only a matter of time.
Lu Huai held her hand and told the truth: "Poppy went to Hanyang."
Ye Chu gradually calmed down: "Dong Hongchang wants to see her, they think she has been successfully instigated."
They glanced at each other, there was one thing, and they didn't say anything at the same time.
What Lu Huai and Ye Chu are not sure yet is whether Dong Hongchang trusts the poppy
Can she return safely from her dangerous trip
They have a great understanding and will not express each other's worries.
Through what happened tonight, Lu Huai rearranged his thoughts.
Recently, there have been three things related to Dong Hongchang.
First, Mo Qinghan knew the truth and confessed Dong Hongchang's stronghold in Shanghai.
Those strongholds will be taken down immediately, and at the same time, it will destroy Dong Hongchang's hard work for many years, leaving him with no way out in Shanghai.
Second, Poppy went to Hanyang to meet Dong Hongchang, and she would find a way to rescue the real Dai Shinan.
As long as Poppy and the real Dai Shinan leave Hanyang safely, the fake Shinan will soon be exposed.
The chess pieces that Dong Hongchang has carefully cultivated for many years will be destroyed.
The third is that Ji Manqing is involved with someone in the Peking government.
Lu Huai will soon go to Peiping to find the truth and let Ji Manqing fall. Dong Hongchang will be unable to make any progress in Shanghai.
In these three moves, as long as one step is taken, it proves that the abolition of Dong Hongchang's chess game has begun.
The arrow is on the string and I have to send it.
In the traps everywhere, in the foggy chess game.
No one can stay out of it.
…
Dai Shinan and Poppy transferred from Jinzhou.
The two of them got on the train to Hanyang.
The sky was not bright, and the outline of the scene outside the car was hidden in the night.
The carriage was still swaying slightly, and the train ran over the dark rails and kept moving forward.
Poppy glanced at Dai Shinan who was sitting beside him.
Her voice was calm: "Sir, why are we going to Hanyang?"
When Dai Shinan heard Poppy speak, he turned to look at her.
Dai Shinan did not answer Poppy’s question, but instead asked her: "What do you think?"
In Dai Shinan's view, Poppy is the best agent in the secret service organization.
She is very smart, and her mind is deeply hidden.
In the face of any threat, Poppy will never show its cowardice.
And if such a person is on his side, it will naturally be a great help.
That is, this kind of person is even more difficult to control.
Facing Dai Shinan's temptation, Poppy's complexion remained as usual.
She said: "Since Officer Dai has changed his position, I want to know who that person is."
Poppy's words are full of loyalty to Dai Shinan.
After a moment of silence, Dai Shinan emphasized again: "Our destination is Hanyang."
Poppy frowned, as if she had never doubted this.
She also heard Dai Shinan mention it for the first time.
Poppy asked: "Dong Hongchang, Governor of the Three Provinces?"
Dai Shinan continued to test: "Poppy, do you regret it?"
Dai Shinan's eyes are complicated, and he has a full view of the subtle reaction of the poppy.
Poppy showed his loyalty: "From the time Officer Dai saved me, my life belongs to Officer Dai."
At the same time, Dai Shinan looked at Poppy in silence.
Dai Shinan seemed to want to see through Poppy's reaction to see her true thoughts.
It took a long time for Dai Shinan to take back his eyes from Poppy.
Dai Shinan stopped speaking, and the carriage fell into silence again.
They didn't say a word, but they stayed up all night.
In the same silent night, the train headed for Hanyang.
The way forward is uncertain, blocked by night.
It's like the darkness that is the most inevitable before dawn.
Even if the night is clear, what is waiting for the poppy is an unknown destiny.
The two of them arrived in Hanyang soon.
Dai Shinan took Poppy to a private house.
Poppy looked around quietly, observing the situation in the house.
Not only is the house guarded by heavy guards, but there are also many people outside the house.
Those people were hiding in the dark, observing the movement of the house.
She knew it in her heart, and she didn't show anything on her face.
Poppy walked to the outside of a room with the door slightly open.
Dai Shinan pushed the door in, followed by Poppy.
Dai Shinan looked at a man standing in the room, and he called out, "Gu Jun Dong."
Dong Hongchang responded, and then looked at Poppy.
Dong Hongchang's eyebrows are deep, his eyes are not contaminated with any emotions.
After a while, Dong Hongchang said: "You are a poppy."
Poppy's tone was respectful: "Yes, Governor Dong."
While observing Poppy’s behavior, Dong Hongchang asked: "Poppy, do you know what it means to be in Hanyang now?"
Dong Hongchang knew that Poppy was saved by the real Dai Shinan, so he was extremely loyal to Dai Shinan.
Moreover, the poppy was cultivated by Dai Shinan alone, and only under Dai Shinan's orders.
And this time Poppy came to Hanyang and chose to betray Lu Zongting because of Dai Shinan.
So, did Poppy see through the true identity of Dai Shinan
The opium poppy feeds Dong Hongchang's mind, she naturally understands Dong Hongchang's intentions.
Even though she stated her position, she came to Hanyang with Dai Shinan.
Dong Hongchang did not necessarily believe her at all.
Poppy did not look up at Dong Hongchang, but lowered his head slightly.
She said: "I will abandon the past and become an agent of Dong Junjun."
Poppy's tone was calm, but he appeared extremely sincere.
As soon as the voice fell, Dong Hongchang smiled suddenly.
Yes, even Lu Zongting never doubted Dai Shinan's authenticity.
How can Poppy be suspicious
Dai Shinan looked at Dong Hongchang's reaction, and then said: "General Dong, Poppy has done things for me for many years. She is the most loyal agent."
Poppy glanced at Dai Shinan, he was speaking for himself.
Although Dai Shinan and Dong Hongchang had colluded long ago and they are only doing a show now, she will still cooperate with him.
A little grateful appeared on the poppy's face, and soon disappeared.
However, she quickly concealed it.
Dong Hongchang smiled: "Poppy, I believe in your sincerity."
Poppy immediately responded: "It will definitely live up to the trust of Governor Dong."
Dong Hongchang raised his hand: "Don't be restrained, we have more plans in the future."
Poppy and Dong Hongchang sang and said: "I hope the plan can proceed smoothly."
Dong Hongchang nodded: "With you, I believe we will succeed soon."
In order to test whether Poppy is loyal, he asked Dai Shinan to give Poppy an order.
Let Poppy assassinate Lu Zongting.
And Poppy's performance made him very satisfied.
Poppy had never been in direct contact with Lu Zongting, Dai Shinan came forward when giving orders.
It is not surprising that Poppy would make such a decision.
However, Dong Hongchang will still take one step at a time, and will not relax his vigilance at any time.
Dong Hongchang turned his head to look at Dai Shinan: "She is your subordinate, I have arranged a place to live."
He turned his gaze on Poppy again: "Come over with you."
Dai Shinan nodded: "Yes."
After coming out of the house, Poppy followed Dai Shinan into the car.
The car drove forward immediately.
Dong Hongchang arranged an apartment for Poppy.
Dai Shinan delivered Poppy to the door, and after a few orders, he left.
As soon as Poppy walked into the apartment, someone came up.
The attitude of the servant is extremely respectful: "Miss Poppy, all your things are ready."
In order to prevent all accidents from happening, Dai Shinan took Poppy away when she was unprepared.
He hurriedly took the poppy away from Shanghai, severing all possible connections between the poppy and the outside world.
Poppy naturally left everything in Shanghai.
She came alone and went to the danger alone.
Although the subordinate's attitude is respectful, Poppy knows that these are all people who watch her.
Not only the person in front of him, but there are still many people in this apartment.
They seem to be arranging to take care of Poppy's daily life, but they also pay attention to her every move.
Poppy nodded towards the man and went back to his room.
The door is closed to isolate everything outside.
Poppy stayed in this apartment and couldn't send news to Shanghai at all.
No matter what she does, those outside will report to Dong Hongchang.
The purpose of her coming to Hanyang alone was to find Chief Dai's hiding place.
However, she is now struggling, unable to move a single inch.
In this Hanyang of the University of Nuovo, it is not easy for her to find Chief Dai with the power of one person.
What's more, it was even more difficult for her to be in such a situation.
Poppy couldn't guess where Dong Hongchang would hide Chief Dai
…
On this day, the guards at the Peace Hotel were much tighter, and Mo Qinghan knew that Lu Huai had already made preparations.
It seems that tonight is the time to destroy those strongholds.
Mo Qinghan thought for a while, went out and came to a place.
The car stopped and Mo Qinghan walked in.
After Lu Huai had secured the previous headquarters, Mo Qinghan moved the headquarters here.
A person saw Mo Qinghan and quickly greeted him: "Master."
Mo Qinghan looked at him, his eyes flashing sharply.
This person is a liaison officer, delivering information to each branch.
If something goes wrong at the head office, this person will immediately report a letter to the other strongholds.
The most important point is that he is Dong Hongchang's person.
Dong Hongchang placed someone next to him to watch him, and Mo Qinghan stayed still, just to prevent the snake from smashing the grass.
But the annihilation of the stronghold cannot be passed on to Dong Hongchang's ears, otherwise, Dong Hongchang will definitely be prepared.
Mo Qinghan felt cold in his heart, his expression unchanged.
Mo Qinghan glanced at the man and opened his mouth: "You come with me."
Mo Qinghan's eyebrows were gloomy the moment he turned around.
This person must die.
The man entered the room, stood in front of Mo Qinghan, and reported to him some things about the stronghold.
Mo Qinghan nodded, indicating that he could leave.
After a while, the man turned around and was about to leave.
Mo Qinghan stood up quietly, his eyes extremely cold.
The rope suddenly covered the man's neck, like a cold snake.
The man only felt a chill in his neck, and the cold breath spread.
The next second, the rope between the neck suddenly tightened.
Mo Qinghan looked indifferent, holding the rope in his hand, pulling it to both sides.
Tighten the rope little by little.
No mercy.
There was a sharp, piercing pain in the man's throat, one after another.
He struggled hard, but he had no power to fight back.
He looked up hard, wanting to ask for mercy: "Master..."
The broken words have not yet been spoken, and the pain in the neck is getting worse.
Mo Qinghan didn't even look at him, his hands grew stronger and the rope tightened.
The man only saw Mo Qinghan's sharp and cold jaw.
There was no sound in the room, it was extremely silent.
Only the silent silence spread.
As time passed, the man's eyes gradually dissipated, and the air in his chest dissipated.
He dropped his hand and suffocated to death.
Mo Qinghan let go, and the man was placed on the ground by him.
Then, he calmly looked at the corners of his clothes.
There is no fluctuation in his expression from beginning to end.
Mo Qinghan crossed the man on the ground and walked to the door.
He opened the door, locked it, and went straight away.
The room was cold, leaving only the dead air.
…
The sky was very dim, and the silent night fell.
The rain fell coldly and hit the ground mercilessly. The world is full of water vapor, lingering beside him, like a shadow.
Several cars stopped at the intersection.
Lu Huai was sitting in the car, with heavy rain on both sides.
Heavy rain fell on the black car, and dull noises were heard.
Lu Huai's gaze passed through the rain curtain, like a deep cold pool, with no end in sight.
In front is Mo Qinghan's main stronghold, his people have surrounded here, waiting for his instructions at any time.
At this moment, Lu Huai lowered his head and looked at the watch on his wrist.
The second hand moved slowly, and the air was extremely quiet.
He has sent people to surround the various strongholds, and when the time comes, he will do it together.
Lu Huai did not look away, still staring at the watch.
Time passed quietly, Lu Huai narrowed his eyes.
The voice fell heavily: "Do it."
Snow-white lightning flashed across the gloomy sky and pierced the condensed darkness.
It's like an early warning, a sudden killing!
Lu Huai's people rushed in, and the cold bullets whizzed in and hit the enemy.
They raised their guns and shot without hesitation.
The smoke spread heavily.
The smell of blood surged, and the cold water vapor could not conceal the heavy blood.
The gunshots sounded one after another, the night became darker, and the rain was extremely harsh.
The gunfire stopped, but the murderous air did not stop.
Some people died, while others were taken back for interrogation.
The air was filled with deathly silence.
Lu Huai stood long, watching silently, without any temperature in his eyes.
The bleak night breeze is blowing, and the windows are hunting.
Lu Huai's people search other rooms to see if there is any suspicious person.
One of his men walked up to Lu Huai and said, "San Shao, one room is locked."
Lu Huai's eyes sank and motioned for his subordinates to lead the way.
When he reached the room, Lu Huai stopped.
The door was closed tightly, like a cold shackle, and the situation inside was not yet known.
The subordinates looked serious, and stared at the door closely with their guns.
They slowed their breathing, their bodies tensed.
Lu Huai stared at this door with cold eyes.
Then, he raised his hand and gave instructions.
The next second, the door was kicked abruptly, and coldness came surging.
Lu Huai's men held the gun tightly, guarding against the murderous intent in the dark.
There was no one in the room.
The cold wind poured in, and the night filled.
Lu Huai's eyes fell on the ground, and there was a dead body lying on the ground.
Lu Huai frowned and stepped forward.
The man's face was pale, and he was no longer angry.
Lu Huai bent over and leaned over to take a closer look.
There was a very deep strangle mark between the man's neck.
Lu Huai straightened up and glanced around the room.
The room was locked up in order not to be aware of the corpse inside.
The person who could kill the head office quietly, but was not discovered by anyone here afterwards, and left safely.
Lu Huai had guessed that Mo Qinghan did this.
This person must have a special identity and would affect Mo Qinghan's plan, so Mo Qinghan killed him.
Lu Huai asked his men to deal with the corpse, then he turned around and walked out of the room slowly.
Suddenly there was a gust of wind, and the wind was strong, passing his side.
The corners of the clothes are floating, as if to blend into this dark night.
One of his men reported in a low voice: "San Shao, all strongholds have been wiped out."
The sound passed through the rain and cleared into Lu Huai's ears.
After a long while, Lu Huai let out a hum, his eyes fell into the dark night, his expression gloomy.
Mo Qinghan did not hide anything about the stronghold.
He really wanted to use his own hand to get rid of Dong Hongchang's influence.
Lu Huai can be sure that Mo Qinghan and Dong Hongchang are completely opposite.
This night, the rain was extremely heavy, and the humid and cold air covered the whole of Shanghai.
Above the pitch-black sky, there seemed to be a roar of thunder.
Lu Huai stood in the deep darkness, but his eyes were extremely clear.
In the previous life, Mo Qinghan was their enemy.
In this life, there is still cold hatred among them.
The hatred extends and seeps into everyone's heart.
The entanglement between them is very complicated.
Lu Huai's eyes were dark.
Those unpredictable dangers approached quietly with an unstoppable force.
This road is extremely long and extremely difficult.
But he will not let the people behind the scenes.
Lu Huai's eyes were filled with ink, his eyes were extremely firm, as usual.
He would help Mo Qinghan fulfill that wish.
Give Mo Ling a real justice.
Also bring their common enemy to justice.
The rain was getting worse, and Lu Huai walked into the silent night holding a black umbrella.
The cold rain outlines his back, tough and upright.
Lu Huai's figure faded away, gradually disappearing into the darkness.
