After the death of the previous emperor, the Empress Dowager became arrogant

Chapter 201

Need my help?

Yoko nodded. She didn't have any reliable people at her disposal. Apart from Jiang Man, she couldn't find anyone else suitable to do this.

I need your people to help me deal with He Wensu. He is in the hospital now. I will arrange the rest.

Jiang Man understood that something must have gone wrong with the plan from the past few days, otherwise Qi Jun would not have come to see her in the middle of the night.

Let me guess, the bigger this action is, the better?

Yes, and you have to do it quickly, I'm afraid something might happen if we're late. After this, I'll secretly send you out of the city.

Understood.

But we don't necessarily have to do this ourselves. Based on what He Wensu did, he has already offended a lot of people.

Yoko understood what Jiang Man meant. What He Wensu did after he defected to his new master had indeed caused dissatisfaction and anger among many people.

As long as the news that he is seriously injured in the hospital is released, someone will take advantage of the hospital's lax defenses to take action. Regardless of whether it is successful or not, for Yoko, the benefits outweigh the disadvantages.

It's not that I hadn't thought of this before, but Yoko didn't have much contact with the people and didn't understand their internal grievances, so I didn't know where to start.

If he could get Jiang Man's help and then act as a link, not only could he ensure the absolute safety of Jiang Man and the others, but he could also completely clear himself of suspicion. Perhaps he could also completely gain He Wensu's trust. This would indeed be a good idea.

Then I'll leave this matter to you.

That way, you don't have to participate in the later actions.

I suggest you leave the city as soon as possible to avoid a city-wide search and martial law at the checkpoints, which would make it difficult to escape.

I will draw up the plan as soon as possible and put it in the previously agreed-upon dead mailbox. If nothing unexpected happens, it will be implemented within about three days.

As for the rescue list you gave me, I will do my best.

I'm leaving now. I don't know when we'll see each other next time. Take care.

The same to you.

Jiang Man watched Yoko leave, with a slight smile on her lips. "Old Li, Old Li, as you said, putting aside her identity and position, she is indeed a person worth making friends with."

After Yoko returned home, she worked out the overall action plan overnight, confirmed it several times, and put it in the mailbox in the early morning of the next day.

Jiang Man also successfully obtained the plan in the evening of the next day.

She didn't have much time left, so she found an iron basin to burn the plan in her hand to remove all traces, then hurriedly took the suitcase she had already packed, locked the door and left.

Jiang Man acted quickly. It only took a few hours from spreading the news to alerting the top leaders of the Military Control Commission.

The first person to receive the news of the operation was Jiang Man’s immediate superior, who was also in Shencheng.

The party sent him an order overnight, ordering him to eliminate the traitor He Wensu.

Jiang Man has been exposed, so this task falls on the shoulders of the first team.

What Yoko didn't expect was that the leader of the first group, Liao Pei, had an old grudge against He Wensu. It was said that many of his brothers were betrayed and sacrificed by He Wensu.

Public hatred and personal grudges are mixed together. I believe that in this operation he will not let the traitor He Wensu go easily.

Sure enough, on the day of the operation, several men in white coats came to the hospital to check out the situation. They looked solemn, and their hands on their waists were always tense.

Yoko, who was hiding in the corner of the toilet waiting for her chance, could tell their identities at a glance.

It was Liao Pei's people who started to take action.

Yoko took a quick look and could see almost all the doctors, nurses, patients, accompanying family members, etc. There were about ten people in total.

It was noon at this time, and there were many people coming and going in the hospital. The members of the operation team never thought that someone would attack in broad daylight, so they did not care too much about He Wensu's personal safety.

With Yoko's help, it was easy to avoid their sight.

Seeing that the time was almost right, Yoko pretended to have just come out of the bathroom, walked to the front and said she wanted to get something she had stored.

Before he could finish, several voices were heard from the direction of He Wensu's ward.

Yoko quickly took out the pistol from her waist and ran towards the ward. When several team members on guard duty heard the gunshots, they quickly put down their lunch boxes, drew their guns and rushed in.

The people in the hospital were suddenly in chaos. Yoko finally squeezed in and saw He Wensu running left and right in the crowd, causing heavy casualties wherever he passed.

Yoko's face was heavy, the situation had become more serious than expected. Liao Pei had obviously no scruples about revenge, and they had to get this scourge away from the crowd as soon as possible.

He held the gun tightly in his right hand and pushed forward against the wall. When he got close, he grabbed He Wensu's hand and dragged him into the room next to him.

He Wensu was about to struggle, but when he turned around and saw that it was Yoko, he immediately grabbed her arm tightly.

Fortunately you came, otherwise I would probably die here today.

Yoko put her ear against the door, listening carefully to the noise outside, but He Wensu kept pulling her arm and shaking it from time to time, which made her annoyed and she subconsciously frowned and scolded him.

Shut up! Let go!

He Wensu was stunned by Yoko's behavior. He stood there in a daze, as if he had never seen her so fierce before, and let go of her hand in a daze.

You hide here, I'll go out and check the situation. The rescuers will be here soon, remember don't run around!

Without waiting for his response, Yoko quickly opened the door and slipped out.

The next morning, almost all the newspapers on the street were reporting on the case, and the city-wide manhunt caused considerable panic.

Many prestigious scholars took this opportunity to publicize the various evil deeds and influences committed by Muto Takaya and others since the occupation.

All sectors of society followed suit and collectively put pressure on certain forces.

During this period, Kawai Shihei, who was used as a punching bag by Muto Takaya, also had a hard time.

This happened right under his nose, and more than half a month has passed, but there has been no progress at all.

If he is held accountable, he will not be able to escape.

Several team members who were on the mission that day were tortured to the point of almost losing half their lives by him.

However, Yoko knew nothing about this.

When Ning Xiaoru came to see her, she was fiddling with a few pots of flowers and plants by the window.

My dear aunt, you are still injured, why did you get out of bed?

I'm almost well now, so it's not a bad idea to come down and walk around.

Also.

But then again, why did you save that unlucky guy? He was recovering from his injuries when an assassination attempt occurred, and you were also injured and hospitalized.

Given the situation at that time, we couldn’t just ignore it, right?

Ning Xiaoru seemed to remember something, took out a piece of newspaper from her bag and handed it to Yoko.

Look, a little kid at the door just gave it to me and said he would give it to you. Can you see what it is?

Yoko opened the newspaper and turned to the folded side. There was a line of small words printed on the upper right corner: The ancestral home has been resold, don’t worry if you go abroad - it’s kept by your cousin.

It was a letter from home. She left in a hurry and didn't see me, so she asked someone to put it in the newspaper.

It seems that Jiang Man has successfully left Shanghai, and the distant cousin whose identity was replaced has also gone abroad to study as agreed.

Next, it was time for her mission.
