1627 Rise of the South China Sea

Chapter 3181
Zhu Zhongyun felt that he had never been so useless in his life.

At this time, he was blindfolded by a black cloth, his hands and feet were bound by strong leather belts, and he was fixed on the iron chair under him.And this cold iron chair seemed to be fixed on the ground, no matter how hard he shook it, it still remained motionless.

In addition, a cloth ball was stuffed in his mouth, and he couldn't spit it out, so he could only whine.He used this method to prevent the vicious gangsters from biting their tongues and committing suicide before, but he never thought that he would become a victim of this method one day.

Zhu Zhongyun didn't even know where he was at this time, he was blindfolded after he missed and was captured, and was carried on a carriage and transported here.

He can only rely on his body's perception of the outside world to judge that he is still in Hangzhou City.The space it's in is stuffy and damp, it should be underground.

The only thing Zhu Zhongyun could be sure of was that the other party did not intend to execute him immediately.For some reason, they also need to keep themselves alive.

When he was surrounded, he really had the will to die. The Haihan soldiers who were able to carry out the task of arresting him did not give him a chance to go all out. As soon as they met him, they threw out several specially made fishing nets, and he and his men were tightly bound. Cover them, and then they were brought down by random sticks and tied up one by one.

There are various indications that the opponent's round-up operation was prepared, and they deliberately waited until that time before arresting people.

The firearm failure that Zhu Zhongyun encountered during his attack was probably not accidental, and the other teams probably would encounter the same situation.The plan to assassinate the Haihan executive committee has very little hope of success.

Zhu Zhongyun didn't dare to expect too much, he only hoped that the other teams who were lurking in the city as backups would notice something was wrong as soon as possible, and flee Hangzhou in advance, bringing back the news of the failure, so that the court could prepare for the possible consequences .

Zhu Zhongyun didn't wait too long when he heard footsteps approaching from far and near, and there were more than one person.

Immediately, the black cloth that blindfolded his eyes was removed. He squinted his eyes to adapt to the environment, and saw four Haihan people standing in front of him. One of them was an old man with white beard and hair, and the other two looked quite old. Only a young man in his twenties stood on the far side.

Zhu Zhongyun noticed that except for the young man, the other three had short hair, and their clothes were also different from ordinary people's. It was a kind of collared blouse with a straight gray material and several seams on the chest and waist. Conspicuous pockets, this is the attire of a high-ranking Haihan official.

The young man's clothes were no different from Ming's, but he appeared in this place, compared with the people around him, he seemed a bit out of place.

There are also several strong men standing around, apparently they are the subordinates of these four people.

One of them said, "Zhu Zhongyun, this is the dungeon of the Hangzhou Prison. It used to be managed by the Hangzhou government, but now it is shared by the city defense army and the police station. It is specially used to temporarily detain serious offenders."

"When you enter this place, don't even think about escaping. We don't intend to kill you, and you don't want to seek death. If you ask me anything, you should answer honestly, and don't make yourself uncomfortable."

After the man finished speaking, he made a gesture, and someone beside him stepped forward and took out the cloth stuffed in Zhu Zhongyun's mouth.

Someone else brought two chairs over, and the two Haihan officials sat down five feet away from Zhu Zhongyun.

Zhu Zhongyun probably knew that he was unlucky when he fell into this situation, so he was very calm, and he took the initiative to ask, "Have you asked me about your identities?"

The person who spoke before replied: "I am Ji Yuanqing, the head of the Military Intelligence Bureau of the East China Sea Region, and next to me is Mr. Gong Shiqiu from the Haihan Security Department. And these two are Li Qingyang and Li Qingyang from the Special Liaison Office of the East China Sea Region. Your Excellency, Master Zhu Zi'an Zhu."

Zhu Zhongyun smiled bitterly and said: "I have admired and admired you for a long time! After losing to several hands, Zhu is not wronged."

Among these four people, apart from the young Zhu Zi'an, Zhu Zhongyun, who is a Jin Yiwei, has naturally heard of the names of the other three.

Gong Shishi has been the number one thug in Haihan Security Department for many years, and the number of guards in the Daming factory has already been over a hundred in his hands.To Daming's peers, he is like an evil star.

Ji Yuanqing has been in charge of the Military Intelligence Bureau of the East China Sea Region for many years. He is one of the main opponents of the Daming Factory Guard in Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Since Zhu Zhongyun came to Hangzhou, he certainly knows who he is going to fight with.

As for Li Qingyang, he was a dangerous person who was recorded in Jin Yiwei's files.

Thirty years ago, Li Qingyang sneaked into Sanya, which was not well-known at the time, as a hundred households of Jinyiwei. However, he was captured by a mistake and joined Haihan. Spies from all walks of life.

Although Li Qingyang has now retired from the Ministry of Security and transferred to the Special Liaison Office, Zhu Zhongyun dare not underestimate this unremarkable old man.

As for the young official surnamed Zhu, Zhu Zhongyun vaguely felt that he had heard of this name somewhere, but he couldn't remember the source for a while.

Of course, if he really remembered Zhu Zian's identity, he would probably be surprised again.Because Zhu Zian, like Li Qingyang, also left Daming and came to Haihan to develop, but he was born in Shandong De Palace, a real son of the clan and royal blood, and his status was much higher than Li Qingyang.

Zhu Zhongyun knew a thing or two about the special liaison office.This yamen is not an espionage department, but is responsible for negotiating with Daming about various special matters that are inconvenient for the foreign department or have insufficient authority, such as civil disputes, transnational cases, trade conflicts, and so on.

And Haihan let the special liaison office participate in the trial, this arrangement is very intriguing.For a moment, Zhu Zhongyun wasn't sure whether it was related to the function of the special liaison office, or whether it was to invite the experienced Li Qingyang to come forward.

Then it was time for questions, and Gong Shiqi asked first.

One is who planned and who instigated this assassination operation, the other is whether Zhu Zhongyun has other accomplices hiding in Hangzhou, and the third is the source of these rifles used by Zhu Zhongyun and others.

Zhu Zhongyun knew that he couldn't escape, so he naturally took care of everything, saying that this matter was planned and implemented by himself, and it was not appointed by the imperial court, and he had no other accomplices.

As for the source of the rifle, Zhu Zhongyun said that he had never met the seller, and the money and goods transactions were all done remotely, so there was no more information to confess.

Gong Shiqi's question had already set a trap. If Zhu Zhongyun didn't tell the truth, he would be exposed immediately. Of course, such a perfunctory answer would not pass the test.

Gong Shiqi shook his head and said, "The teams you brought to Hangzhou were all captured by us. The speed of your subordinates' confession is much faster than yours!"

"Look, I've given you the chance to tell the truth, but you obviously don't cherish it, so you can't blame me."

Gong Shiqi beckoned and said: "Bring up the torture tools! You are so stubborn, you must be prepared to suffer, so give it a try and see how hard your bones can be!"
