C516 Russia's Prison in Mai Shun
I stood next to Lee and didn't say anything.
"Yi, under the current circumstances, there are some things that I cannot step out of the window for. Or rather, I cannot step out." After a while, Lee said.
I looked at Lee in silence. Lee's words verified my previous thoughts.
"Some things, some times, are blocked and cannot be communicated." Lee said again.
Listening to Lee's words, looking at Lee's old face, I pondered.
Could it be that Lee's few words just now hinted at something?
Lee stopped talking and stared at the sea. He seemed to have started to concentrate on fishing.
I don't believe that Lee can calmly fish at this moment, nor do I believe that Lee can do nothing to this matter. As for what he is thinking, or trying to think of a solution, I know nothing about it.
At this moment, I didn't want to care who Qiu Tong came for, nor did I care about the mystery behind this. I just wanted to save Qiu Tong. As for the other people and matters, I didn't want to care about them, nor did I care.
Continuing to ponder over Lee's words, a person suddenly flashed through my mind.
I started to leave. Lee sat there motionlessly, as if I had never been by his side.
The man I was thinking of now was the Emperor.
They would never tell me anything. Even if I used a trick on Cao Lee, she might not tell me the truth. After all, this is a matter of great interest to her, and she has not fainted to that extent. What if I lost my virginity and couldn't get the truth out of it?
As for the Emperor, this omnipotent and omnipotent Emperor, perhaps he would know of some situation.
After leaving Lee, I immediately sent a short message to the emperor: "The goods have arrived. Are you free to look at the goods?"
Then, the emperor called: "Bro, what is it?"
I said, "Is it convenient to see you? "Interview!"
The Emperor said, "Alright, I was with the General and Boss Bai and his brother-in-law last night. I still haven't woken up, but your little brother must have something important to call me over. I'll get up right now. "Where shall we meet?"
I thought for a moment. "Let's meet at the entrance of Lvshun Day Russian Prison."
"Why did he choose such a terrifying place to meet up with me?" The Emperor said.
"It's safe here, we won't meet any acquaintances." "No," I said.
"Alright, then I'll go directly over after I get up. It'll take about two hours to reach the Lvshun." The Emperor said.
"I will be waiting for you in the prison in two hours!"
"Alright, I won't leave until I see you again!" The Emperor yawned and hung up.
I immediately drove along the main road by the sea and turned into the middle road of Lvshun, heading straight towards the old location of the Russian Prison in Lvshun.
After buying my ticket, I wandered around for a while. Afterwards, I headed straight for a small house in the back. It was the hanging room of the Russian Prison back then. There were very few tourists around. It was covered with weeds and was very quiet.
I went in and stood in front of the gallows, looking at the grim gallows, and suddenly I was back to the terrible white years of the last century.
Not long after, I received a call from the Emperor: "I'm here. Where are you?"
"Hanging Room!" "No," I said.
The Emperor hung up the phone, and I went out. A moment later, I saw the Emperor appear and walk towards me.
Walking in front of me, the Emperor looked at his surroundings and smiled: "Brother, meeting in such a sinister and terrifying place, only you can think of anything."
I didn't laugh. I walked to a nearby stone bench and sat down. The Emperor also came over and sat down. "Why are you looking for me?"
I lit a cigarette, took a few puffs, and said, "You should know."
"I don't know!"
"You should know!"
"I really don't know!"
Seeing that the Emperor didn't seem to be lying, I threw away the cigarette butt and stood up to look at the Emperor. "Qiu Tong was taken away by the anti-graft team this morning. Did you really not know that?"
"Ah —" The Emperor looked at me in surprise. "Why?"
"You're asking me? I wanted to ask you something. " I stared into the Emperor's rat eyes.
"I really don't know about that." The Emperor stood up and looked at me. "What exactly is going on? I played mahjong with General Bai Laosan and his brother-in-law last night and only left this morning. "
I saw that the Emperor didn't seem to be acting for me, so I was a little skeptical. Thus, I told the Emperor about Boss Ping and Qiu Tong being taken away by someone who was going against their greed.
After the Emperor heard this, he pondered for a long time. After a while, he said, "This matter, I actually did not notice in the slightest. It's strange. According to my previous understanding, that Ping should have been caused by Sun Dongkai, and he had always wanted to take this opportunity to take down the chairman of the Media Group. I knew a little about this matter previously, but I couldn't figure out why Qiu Tong was also involved,.
I looked at the Emperor without speaking.
The Emperor looked at me and continued, "I can tell you one thing, until now, Sun Dongkai and Cao Lee still do not know about the relationship between Qiu Tong and Lee Shun. Bai Laosan and General have been deliberately hiding this from him, so Sun Dongkai and Cao Lee don't even know about Lee Shun. They had never mentioned Lee Shun's name. "I've heard about the conflict between Sun Dongkai and the chairman. However, both the general and I are not interested in this matter and have not participated in it. Could it be that …"
"Could it be what?" "No," I said.
"Could it be that Sun Dongkai and Cao Lee hid it from me, General, and Bai Laosan?" The Emperor said, "Cao Lee is out of jealousy among women, out of the need to fight for power, she has always coveted Qiu Tong's position. If this matter really had something to do with Bai Laosan, then Bai Laosan was out of need of Lee Shun, taking advantage of Qiu Tong to attack Lee Shun. Also, Bai Laosan had always been drooling over Qiu Tong.
Of course, these are all my guesses, and I don't have any evidence to prove this right now. Perhaps, this matter between Boss Ping and Qiu Tong has nothing to do with them, or perhaps there's a problem with some other aspect and it was reported by someone else who has nothing to do with us. "
"I have good reason to suspect that Sun Dongkai is involved, and Cao Lee is involved!" "No," I said.
The Emperor looked at me and said nothing.
I blurted out a sentence, "I'm surprised that the famous Emperor, who knows everything, doesn't know anything about this matter. I can't believe it!"
Half of what I said was skepticism and the other half was provocation.
The Emperor smiled wryly, "I am not as powerful as you think!"
"Will Wu De really not know about this?"
The Emperor didn't say anything. He took out his phone and said to me, "Don't talk!"
The Emperor then dialed a number and soon it was connected.
The Emperor then pressed the hands-free button.
"What is it?" Wu De's voice came over the phone.
"General, I just heard something and want to report it to you!" the Emperor said carefully.
"Speak!"
"Today, Qiu Tong was taken away by someone from the anti-greed department, and at the same time, the CEO of the Media Group advertising company. She was the person who was always very close to the Hsinghai Chairman."
"Oh." Wu De's voice was filled with surprise: "Qiu Tong was taken away by the anti-graft team? What was going on? He had a birthday party on the mainland last night, and I went over and offered her a drink. "
"I guess you probably don't know about this, so I'll report it to you!" The Emperor said.
"There's something fishy about this. At such a critical juncture, it's worth pondering over." Wu De pondered for a while and said: "I need to analyze this matter properly. Then, you should start to act immediately and find out who is the mastermind behind this through your channels. "Why did Qiu Tong go in?"
"Good …"
"This has to be done in secret, don't alert the enemy. The more detailed the information, the better!" Wu De said again.
"Hay," the Emperor said respectfully.
Wu De then hung up the phone.
The Emperor turned off his cell phone, looked at me, and made a face that meant he wasn't lying. He wasn't the only one who didn't know, Wu De didn't know either.
I nodded.
The Emperor looked at me and blinked. "You called me here, is …"
"I want you to do me a favor!" "No," I said.
"What kind of help?" The Emperor said.
"What Wu De wants you to do is to ask for your help!" I said, "Help me find out what exactly happened and who was the mastermind behind it. Why did the Anti-Corruption Bureau take Qiu Tong away? What is the mystery behind it?"
The Emperor took a deep breath. "This matter is quite difficult."
"No matter how difficult it is, it won't be difficult for your emperor!" "No," I said.
The Emperor smiled, "I will do my best!"
"You have to do this, otherwise, how will you explain it to Wu De?" I said, "I'm sure you have a way!"
The Emperor looked at me. "Anything else?"
"No more!"
"How did you come to me about this?"
"Because I trust you!"
"Is your trust in me to be discounted?"
"When the time comes, I will trust you!"
The Emperor smiled. "Thank you for your trust. For you to trust me once, I suddenly feel very touched!"
"I hope I can continue to trust you in the future!"
"Hopefully." After saying that, the Emperor nodded at me, looked around, then turned and left.
After the Emperor left, I sat there pondering for a long time. Wu De actually didn't know about this matter, which was indeed out of my expectations.
I left the old Russo-Japanese prison and drove around the military port for an entire afternoon. I didn't return until the evening.
I drove absent-mindedly, thinking about how Qiu Tong was being questioned in the Anti-Corruption Agency, and my heart tightened.
Unknowingly, I deviated from the main road and walked along a small path by the sea. As I walked along, I realized that this path was the same remote path where I met the Emperor and Dong Xue.
It was late afternoon and there were no people or cars on the road. The sea was on one side and the mountains on the other. It was very quiet.2
I kept my speed at medium speed and drove past the place where I met the Emperor and Dong Xue. I casually turned my head to look at the sea, and saw that the Emperor and Dong Xue were still standing on the same reef by the sea. The two of them were still standing there like the last time, as if they were talking about something.
I was stunned. Could it be that the Emperor was using Dong Xue to inquire about this news? Or was this one of the channels he wanted to find out?
I don't want the Emperor and Dong Xue to see me. That's not good, the Emperor will think I'm following him.
I hit the gas, didn't slow down, and drove away.
As I continued to head downtown, I received a call from Yun Yun: "Brother, I've brought Snowy over to my place, along with my nanny and auntie."
I was just considering this issue when something happened to Qiu Tong. Mrs Lee might go and pick up Snowy. Once Snowy was taken away by her, it would be difficult for her to come back. And now the clouds are doing it, right into my heart.
"Very good, take good care of Snowy!" "No," I said.
