wind in the dark night

Chapter 184: Serial Set ([-])
Night falls.

Every house lights up.

"Officer, I have night blindness. I can't see people clearly at night. Even if Jin Zhe appears, I may not be able to recognize him... How about I come back tomorrow?"

Shopkeeper Liu said with a smile.

Qi Yue said: "There are lights on the street and lights at the entrance of the building. Why can't I see clearly?"

"It looks like a lot of effort... Also, when I came out, I didn't expect it to be so late. I wanted to call and tell my family so that they wouldn't worry about it."

"Do you have a phone at home?"

"I don't have one at home. I can call the cafe next door and let me know. They often eat at my place and we have a pretty good relationship..."

"Is he Jin Zhe?"

Qi Yue pointed to a man on the street.

Shopkeeper Liu looked at it for a while and said firmly: "No. Jin Zhe is shorter and thinner than him."

Qi Yue said calmly: "It seems that your night blindness is not that serious."

Shopkeeper Liu said nonchalantly: "It's good to have street lights. You can see everything... Officer, I'll make a call. It won't take a few minutes."

"No. What if Jin Zhe shows up while you're on the phone?"

"How can it be such a coincidence?"

"As a citizen of Manchukuo, it is only natural for me to cooperate with the investigation. If you continue to push back, I will doubt that you are intentionally helping the rebels!"

Shopkeeper Liu was startled and said quickly: "How can I have the courage..."

"If you don't have the guts, just say less!"

Qi Yue opened the door and got out of the car and walked towards the Parkson Hotel.

At this time, in Room 11 of Yimin Apartment, Zhang Yuying put the hot food on the table, then returned to the kitchen to get the dishes and chopsticks, apparently preparing for dinner.

Room 9 on the other side had the lights on, and you could vaguely see it through the gauze curtains. There was a figure moving in front of the window. It was obvious that Su Ya was at home at the moment.

……

"Did Jin Zhe show up?"

Ning Zhiyuan asked Qi Yue.

Qi Yue said: "Not yet."

Ning Zhiyuan glanced at his watch: "It's already past seven o'clock, no wonder I'm hungry...Xiao Liu, go buy some food, preferably steamed buns and dumplings. Oh, buy me a pack of cigarettes, Lao Ba Duo ."

Xiao Liu agreed, put on his coat and left.

Qi Yue took the telescope and looked at it for a while, and then said: "Brother Yuan, after you finish eating, you can go back and rest early. I'll keep an eye on it."

"I'm here, you go back."

"That's okay, I'm still here."

"Stop arguing, it's the same wherever I am."

"All right……"

Ning Zhiyuan thought for a while: "I'm going to ask Su Ya. She and Jin Zhe are neighbors, so she can know something about the situation. You wait until I come back before leaving."

"You and sister-in-law can chat for a while, I'm not in a hurry."

Everything is in Qi Yue's plan.

This is a normal thing. Su Ya and Jin Zhe live in the same building. Ning Zhiyuan will most likely want to find Su Ya to understand the situation.

……

10 minute later.

Room 9, Yimin Apartment.

Ning Zhiyuan knocked on the door.

No one in the house answered.

Ning Zhiyuan felt puzzled, the lights were on at home, how could there be no one there?

"Su Ya, open the door, it's me."

Ning Zhiyuan knocked a few times, guessing in his heart that Su Ya was actually at home, but she deliberately didn't open the door because she was at odds with him.

This time, the door of Room 9 did not open. The door of Room 8 next door opened. A woman held her child and looked at Ning Zhiyuan: "Please, please knock on the door softly. The child was just coaxed to sleep and woken up again." !”

Ning Zhiyuan said apologetically: "I'm sorry."

"Little grinder, I've already taken a nap, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep until midnight, ugh..."

The woman complained and reached back to close the door.

"Hey, let me ask, is Su Ya at home?"

"Who are you, Sister Su?"

"Um, family."

"She's home."

"sure?"

"I just met Sister Su in the bathroom. We went upstairs together. She was wearing pajamas and didn't look like she was going out. She must be at home."

"Why don't you open the door at home..."

Ning Zhiyuan frowned.

The woman said: "Sister Su has a gramophone at home. She may be listening to records. I didn't hear the knock on the door. Try again... Hey, knock a little softer."

"Ok."

Ning Zhiyuan continued to knock on the door.

The door opened, and Su Ya, wearing pajamas, stood in the door, combing her messy hair: "Why are you here again? Didn't you say you were going back to Corey?"

"I have something to ask you."

"...what's the matter?"

A flash of panic flashed in Su Ya's eyes.

"Go in and talk."

Ning Zhiyuan made a move to enter.

Su Ya quickly stopped: "Just say it here."

"Official matters, can we talk here?"

Ning Zhiyuan stepped into the house.

"I'm tired. I want to go to bed early. Say anything quickly."

Su Ya urged from behind.

Except for Su Ya, there is no one else at home.

Ning Zhiyuan looked around, slowly sat on the chair, and then said: "I've been knocking on the door for a long time. You are at home, why don't you open the door?"

"I just fell asleep and didn't hear anything." Su Ya explained.

"How much do you know about the situation in Room 11?"

"Room 11? What's wrong?"

"Yesterday morning, a man named Jin Zhe rented Room 11..."

Ning Zhiyuan suddenly stopped and his eyes fell on the ashtray on the coffee table. There was a cigarette butt in the ashtray. He asked Su Ya: "Have you learned how to smoke?"

Su Ya forced a smile: "When I feel depressed, I smoke one occasionally..."

After all, Ning Zhiyuan was an agent. He noticed his wife's uneasiness, and since the two were separated, he couldn't help but become suspicious.

He stood up and walked to the closet.

This is the only place where someone can hide.

Su Ya forced herself to calm down: "You haven't eaten yet, and I haven't eaten either. A new dumpling restaurant has opened nearby. How about we go and try it?"

"Don't be in a hurry to eat. Let's take a look at your new clothes first!"

Ning Zhiyuan suddenly opened the cabinet door.

In the big closet, my cousin was wearing only a pair of underwear. His own clothes and leather shoes were piled randomly at his feet, with a panicked look on his face.

Seeing this scene, Ning Zhiyuan's mind went blank.

My cousin hurriedly said: "Zhiyuan, don't get me wrong. I stopped by to see Xiaoya. Then, my clothes accidentally got dirty, so I asked her to help wash them. I was afraid that you would misunderstand, so I hid... ah!"

Ning Zhiyuan punched him.

My cousin suddenly started bleeding from his nose and mouth.

The closet space is small and there is no place to hide.

"You treat me like an idiot!"

Ning Zhiyuan made another subtle move.

The cousin screamed.

Su Ya rushed up, stood between the two of them, pushed Ning Zhiyuan hard, turned around in her busy schedule and asked with concern: "Cousin, are you okay?"

Seeing his wife protecting the adulterer, Ning Zhiyuan became even more angry and cursed: "Shameless! Despicable!"

Su Ya didn't panic anymore and said coldly: "Yes, I am shameless and despicable! Ning Zhiyuan, now that things have happened, there is nothing more to say. Let's get a divorce!"

A crisp sound.

Ning Zhiyuan raised his hand and slapped him.

Su Ya screamed, covered her face and said tremblingly: "You, you dare to hit me?"

The two have been married for many years. Although they quarreled and bickered constantly, they never had a fight. Moreover, Ning Zhiyuan was always humble to his wife in front of others and behind others.

Su Ya was suddenly beaten today, and it was hard for Su Ya to accept it for a while.

Ning Zhiyuan's face was livid, and he said angrily: "Hitting you is a light thing. I'm not just beating you, I'm going to kill you two bitches today!"

He reached for the fruit knife on the coffee table.

The cousin crawled out from the closet, hugged Ning Zhiyuan's arm, and said repeatedly: "Zhiyuan Zhiyuan, calm down, calm down, it's all my fault, I shouldn't have come today, no, I am explain……"

"Shut your stinky mouth!"

Ning Zhiyuan threw his cousin away.

He was just trying to resolve his hatred. He fought with his hands and knocked down the wardrobe. As Su Ya screamed, the wardrobe knocked his cousin to the ground.

"Ning Zhiyuan, please stop making trouble!"

Su Ya burst into tears.

Ning Zhiyuan said angrily: "Am I making trouble? Are you still justified in stealing from a man?"

"I don't care. Just kill me. Don't you have a gun? Shoot! Your special agents are all cold-blooded animals. You can kill whoever you want. Just kill!"

Su Ya yelled at the top of her lungs.

Ning Zhiyuan slowly calmed down.

Su Ya's shouting could be heard by the neighbors. If Jin Zhe and Zhang Yuying were rebels and heard that there were people from the Secret Service, they would definitely be more vigilant and would not take any further action in a short period of time.

It's a matter of not telling a single character. Rather than keeping a long-term surveillance, it's better to simply arrest them. Once the punishment is imposed, most of them will confess.

He stepped to the window, opened the gauze curtain with a clatter, waved in the direction of the surveillance point, and then said to his cousin: "Put on your clothes!"

My cousin shook his head and got dressed.

Ning Zhiyuan asked: "When did you do it?"

The cousin glanced at Su Ya and said hesitantly: "It didn't take long, today is the first time..."

Ning Zhiyuan picked up the fruit knife and put it on his cousin's neck: "Tell the truth!"

My cousin immediately said: "Half a year ago."

Ning Zhiyuan shuddered, turned to look at Su Ya, and said in a solemn voice, "Why?"

Su Ya remained silent and didn't speak.

Ning Zhi was inexplicably sad and angry: "Su Ya, ask yourself, have I not been good enough to you all these years you've been married to me? Why do you treat me like this? Huh? You tell me and I'll understand until I die!"

Su Ya still didn't speak.

Tuk Tuk!

There was a knock on the door outside.

Ning Zhiyuan stopped asking, calmed down, opened the door and walked out, saying to Qi Yue who was waiting outside the door: "They have noticed something, arrest him!"

"I'm going to call someone."

"Need not."

Ning Zhiyuan took out his pistol and loaded the bullet with a click: "With our two skills, we can't subdue a big cake seller?"

Qi Yue smiled and said, "That's right."

The two came to the door of Room 11.

Qi Yue reached out and knocked on the door.

No one answered.

Qi Yue said through the door: "Sister Zhang, I know you are at home. Please open the door. I am Jin Zhe's friend. He asked me to come. It is urgent."

After a while, the door creaked and opened a crack. Before Zhang Yuying could see the person clearly, the hard barrel of a gun was already pressed against her head.

……

In Room 9, my cousin grimaced in pain and asked Su Ya: "Yes, Xiaoya, he is so good to you, why are you still with me? Ouch...it hurts me so much, Ning Zhiyuan, that bastard, was so cruel that his ribs were probably broken!"

"He's so fast, faster than the postman..."

Su Ya murmured.
