PNB Chapter 23 Assassination
Chapter 23 Assassination
If they were discovered by the Military Control Commission and the underground party without so many female spies, their "hiding leaves" plan might be ruined.
We had previously agreed with the Mei Agency to send two outstanding female spies for secret training each time. I didn't expect that they needed it so urgently this time and wanted so many people. It seems that there is a big plan.
"Our plan will not be exposed. If it is, it will be your fault!"
Hearing the words of the head of the headquarters, Song Eyun's scalp tightened.
"I have absolutely not been exposed, please rest assured, Section Chief!"
Song Eyun hung up the phone and thought about it carefully. She found that no one suspected her, but she didn't know that someone was watching her.
Luo Yining also told Lin Ruotang here.
"The Song Eyun you mentioned last time is indeed suspicious. I sent someone to track him down and found that his car had reached a secret base in the suburbs, where a number of Japanese military police were stationed."
She was very distressed when she said this.
"It seems that if we want to find out what's inside, we can only start with Song Eyun."
Luo Yining frowned. She didn't want to waste Lin Ruotang's chess piece, so she could only say:
"I will tell my superiors this news and wait for instructions from above."
Luo Yining left in a rickshaw and arrived at an apartment, where he met a man. The two talked for a few words and then Luo Yining walked away.
The three days passed quickly. The police cleared the pedestrians from the road. Several Japanese soldiers sat on a sidecar to lead the way, and several cars slowly drove up behind them.
Lin Ruotang joined in the fun and exchanged glances with Xie Wuwei from a distance in the crowd.
However, she had something to do today, so she picked up her bag and left.
It was August, and there was a cool breeze on the hot night.
The dinner began.
Men in tuxedos and suits, and women in cheongsams and dresses, wearing high heels, entered the hotel's banquet hall.
Many Japanese military police were already on guard around the area, and Xie Wuwei and his special forces team were hiding in the streets in plain clothes.
The police were also patrolling the area. Seeing this, Lin Ruotang felt nervous. Could the assassination really be successful?
Lin Ruotang was wearing a blue cheongsam with mid-length sleeves, and was completely inconspicuous among the crowd of beautiful women.
She stood in the corner holding the wine, and when she saw that no one was paying attention to her, she immediately rushed to the bathroom.
When he was walking on the corridor, he saw that there was no one around, so he immediately took out a piece of oil paper from under the flower pot.
This was a Browning pistol. The entrance to the banquet was strictly checked, so they asked someone to put the gun under a flower pot in advance.
All Lin Ruotang had to do was put the gun in the toilet tank and then open the valve of the toilet window.
After doing all this, Lin Ruotang looked calm and returned to her original position.
"Where did you go just now?"
Luo Yining also came over. She had just been chatting animatedly with several ladies, and when she turned around, she found that Lin Ruotang was missing.
Lin Ruotang put down his wine glass and said calmly:
"Going to the bathroom."
Luo Yining didn't notice anything unusual and gestured to Lin Ruotang to look in one direction.
Liu Yan was seen wearing a tight halter-neck evening dress with a smile on her face, following the wife of the traitor Shen He.
It’s just that Mrs. Shen didn’t seem to like Liu Yan and kept chatting with other people.
"Liu Yan and Mrs. Shen?"
Seeing Lin Ruotang was very surprised, Luo Yining smiled.
"Mrs. Shen's son is coming back from studying in Japan soon. He had previously informed Old Jin about this, but Shen He has always been a flatterer to the Japanese and has always been arrogant. Your uncle is resentful. Now Xie Wuwei is not bad either. Your uncle is not planning to take the relationship with the Shen family any further."
Lin Ruotang had a blank expression on her face. She was almost deceived by Jin Dayong's appearance. She really thought that he was an uncle who loved his niece, but she could use him, so he would naturally be nice to her.
I thought I had canceled the marriage between Jin Dayong and Shen He, but it seems that Jin Dayong is also quite dissatisfied with Shen He.
When Mrs. Shen saw Lin Ruotang, she immediately came over with a smile.
"Mrs. Jin, Miss Lin, we haven't seen her for a long time. We miss her card skills and want to see her style again."
Luo Yining took Mrs. Shen's hand and smiled.
"Mrs. Shen, you don't know that the last time she went back, she was scolded by Lao Jin. He said he would not allow her to go out to play cards no matter what."
Mrs. Shen smiled and thought to herself, Jin Dayong could still scold Lin Ruotang when he saw the money. He must have laughed so hard at home that his gums were hanging out.
"Miss Liu and Miss Lin should be colleagues. Miss Liu is very capable, working as an assistant in the Intelligence Department. Miss Lin also joined the Secret Service Bureau. Which department does she work in?"
Seeing Mrs. Shen say this, Liu Yan stared at Lin Ruotang fiercely with a sarcastic tone.
"Ms. Lin is lucky. She works in Director Jin's General Affairs Department. She's tired of reading newspapers every day."
Lin Ruotang also smiled slightly, looking harmless.
"Yeah, Assistant Liu is amazing. He's made friends with everyone in the bureau."
When Madam Shen heard this, her expression changed slightly, and she said to Lin Ruotang affectionately:
"The General Affairs Office is good. It's relaxing and free. I can also manage the family accounts by learning about accounting."
Mrs. Shen was unhappy when she heard that Shen He wanted to marry into the Jin or Liu family. She didn't like Lin Ruotang because she was too beautiful, but she disliked Liu Yan even more because it was obvious that she was not a content person.
Compared to Liu Yan, Lin Ruotang looks gentle and easy to control, while Liu Yan is obviously a person with a lot of thoughts but poor methods. She makes friends with people up and down as soon as she starts working, which shows that she has great ambitions.
Seeing that Mrs. Shen kept praising Lin Ruotang, Liu Yan's face became gloomy. Then Liu Feng saw Liu Yan like this and immediately pulled her away.
When Mrs. Shen saw Liu Yan leave, she immediately turned around and left, not wanting to say anything more to Lin Ruotang.
"Use it and throw it away, woman!"
Lin Ruotang muttered.
Luo Yining pulled her and walked towards the crowd.
"What are you mumbling about? I'll take you to meet some people."
After walking around, I saw a Japanese officer standing on the stage, speaking broken Chinese.
"This is a farewell banquet for our Japanese Colonel Jiro Kameda. After today, Colonel Kameda will return home. He fought for many years, won countless wars, and dedicated half his life to our Great Japanese Emperor. Let us applaud and welcome this hero!"
After the Japanese officer finished speaking, the door was pushed open, and soldiers on both sides made way. A man in Japanese military uniform appeared. He had a small mustache, limped, and his eyes were full of ferocity.
When Lin Ruotang heard the applause, his heart was in turmoil. The evil man who slaughtered his compatriots actually became a hero. What was hateful was that the people who applauded the loudest were also his compatriots.
It’s just that those people live in luxury and don’t regard the suffering people as their compatriots at all.
Lin Ruotang slowly stepped back and looked coldly at Shen He who was smiling apologetically in front of him. She gritted her teeth in anger, thinking, this damn traitor.
Jiro Kameda stood on the stage, his face flushed and medals on his chest. He introduced his medals one by one and talked about how many people he had killed.
The audience was silent when they heard that the Japanese had killed their own compatriots and were showing off about it. Some young people even got teary-eyed.
At this moment, Kameda Jiro raised his hands and shouted enthusiastically:
"Long live the Emperor of Japan!"
"Long live!"
Shen He was the first to raise his hand and cheer, and the others immediately reacted and cheered together.
"Long live!"
Suddenly the banquet hall was dark.
"Bang bang bang!"
Gunshots rang out in the darkness, as if coming from all directions.
"what--"
"Help--"
"Baga! Someone is trying to assassinate the colonel!"
Screams and shouts rang out, and everyone started running around.
To prevent any accidents, the captain of the Japanese military police raised his gun and fired several shots in the direction of the gunshots, but he did not expect that the crowd would become even more panicked.
Lin Ruotang was worried that Kameda Jiro was not dead yet, so she squeezed into the crowd and walked towards the stage with difficulty, like a fish swimming upstream.
