Genius Agent

Chapter 134 There are really good people

Su Yuncheng understood that Fu Jiu truly didn't know where Jiang Mushan had hidden the money, but he definitely knew something.

"Thank you, Captain Wu. I'll treat you to drinks another day," You Tiao said immediately upon seeing Fu Jiu.

"Captain Zhao, you're too kind. I'll treat you another day."

Captain Wu replied with a smile, "You Tiao knows how to get things done. He'll give Captain Wu five silver dollars, but Captain Wu won't accept them."

Captain Wu is shrewd; he knows exactly which money he can and cannot accept. Su Yuncheng wants the person, and their chief inspector's attitude towards Su Yuncheng is quite special.

You Tiao was someone Dylan personally recruited into the police station; it would be better to use this little bit of money to do someone a favor and leave him there.

Human relationships are priceless. Even small favors can play a big role in crucial moments. What are a few dollars?

You Tiao led Fu Jiu to a newly rented house. The house was small, but very clean.

"Mr. Su will be here shortly, please wait a moment."

"Mr. Su?"

Fu Jiu asked in confusion, "Being brought here doesn't mean I'm going to be secretly executed, otherwise there would be no need for such trouble."

"That's right, you'll find out in a moment."

Without saying much, You Tiao took out some medicine to treat Fu Jiu's wounds and re-bandaged them.

Lu Mingxuan had him tortured. Fu Jiu's wounds hadn't healed, so You Tiao was very careful, trying not to hurt him.

Just as Su Yuncheng finished tending to the wound, he walked in.

"Is it you?"

Fu Jiu recognized Su Yuncheng. Su Yuncheng had questioned him in the prison cell before, and at that time he realized that this young man was not ordinary.

"You're a real man, but unfortunately you've followed the wrong person. My name is Su Yuncheng. You can follow me from now on, or you can leave if you don't agree."

Su Yuncheng asked directly, and Fu Jiu seemed quite surprised: "You're willing to let me go?"

"It's not that I want to, you're a free person, I can't just tie you up with a rope and not let you go, can I?"

Su Yuncheng smiled and told Fu Jiu to leave. Where could he go?

He was a deserter to the Kuomintang, and would be arrested if he went back. Only the foreign concessions were relatively safe.

Aside from the foreign concessions, he could only go to Northeast China or abroad, but he had no money. Even if he did, it would be even more difficult to survive in a place where he knew no one.

"Thank you, but you're wrong. I didn't follow the wrong person; my superior has been very good to me."

Fu Jiu shook his head. He was blindly loyal to Jiang Mushan. No matter what Jiang Mushan did, he believed that this person was good to him.

As for the Kuomintang, he felt no sense of identification with them.

When he was bullied before, who spoke up for him?

In his mind, apart from Jiang Mushan, there wasn't a single good person among the Kuomintang army, whether soldiers or officers.

"He's nice to you because you're useful to him. He wants you to work for him. Let's not talk about him for now. Focus on recovering. If you need anything in the future, go to the Central Police Station and ask You Tiao for help."

"Fried dough sticks?" Fu Jiu was taken aback again.

"I am Youtiao (fried dough stick), my real name is Zhao Wu. Come find me if you need anything."

You Tiao walked over and said, and Fu Jiu replied softly, "Thank you."

Su Yuncheng sensed a hint of gratitude in his emotions; their actions had indeed earned Fu Jiu's approval.

However, Fu Jiu immediately said, "I know what you want, but I really don't know where the officer put the money."

"I understand, you really don't know, and I didn't ask you about it."

Su Yuncheng smiled. It was true that Fu Jiu didn't know where the money was, but he was sure he had some clues.

Even Lu Mingxuan's torture couldn't get him to talk, so Su Yuncheng wasn't in a hurry and would take his time.

Su Yuncheng would often come to see him or invite him to come over.

If Fu Jiu were to secretly investigate the whereabouts of the money, he would definitely not be able to hide it from Su Yuncheng. It would be best if Fu Jiu could find it, then Su Yuncheng would be the one to suffer the consequences.

This money doesn't belong to Fu Jiu, nor to Jiang Mushan. Even if it were stolen, Su Yuncheng wouldn't feel any guilt.

"Isn't this money your goal?"

Fu Jiu became even more curious. When Su Yuncheng appeared, he was convinced that the other party wanted to force him to reveal the whereabouts of the money.

"If we have the money, that would be great. But if we don't, and you're willing to stay, it's not a bad thing for me either."

Su Yuncheng smiled slightly. He was telling the truth. Fu Jiu didn't have the ability to sense other people's emotions, but he had a feeling that Su Yuncheng was not lying to him.

His fondness for Su Yuncheng increased once again.

This is Su Yuncheng's personal charm. He can accurately grasp the psychology of anyone he interacts with, at least ensuring that the other person doesn't dislike him.

Except for the enemy.

"Your money has all been taken. Here's some money for you. You Tiao will come to see you every day. Let's focus on healing your injuries first."

Fu Jiu not only had injuries from torture, but also a previous gunshot wound. Fortunately, the wound did not become infected, otherwise it would have been very troublesome.

After saying this, Su Yuncheng left, and Youtiao quickly followed suit.

Fu Jiu remained silent for a long time, staring at the silver dollars left behind by Su Yuncheng.

It wasn't much money, just ten silver dollars, but it would be enough for him to live on for a long time if he only ate.

This money was given to him for free.

Besides Jiang Mushan, there are truly other good people in this world.

"Brother Yuncheng, are you sure you don't need to keep an eye on him? What if he runs away?"

You Tiao caught up with Su Yuncheng and asked him what he meant by secretly keeping an eye on Fu Jiu to prevent him from escaping.

As for the police station, taking a few days off is fine; in his heart, Su Yuncheng's affairs will always be the most important.

"Don't worry, he won't run away."

Su Yuncheng chuckled and shook his head. During their conversation earlier, Su Yuncheng had carefully sensed Fu Jiu's emotions.

Fu Jiu had no intention of leaving, nor did he deceive them.

Su Yuncheng was confident that Fu Jiu wouldn't leave.

Time passed slowly, and inside the Special Higher Class, Sato wore a joyful expression.

Mizuno's intelligence team leader was removed from his post and remained at headquarters.

Sato was officially promoted to head of the intelligence group.

"Section Chief, I recommend Takumi Endo to be the deputy head of the intelligence group."

Sato stood in front of the section chief and said softly that Endo was his confidant and had previously been the team leader, and was qualified to be promoted to deputy team leader.

The team leader does not have the authority to appoint the deputy team leader; only the section chief can do so.

"I'll see how he performs, and then we'll talk about it later."

Saito shook his head slightly, while Sato was taken aback. What did the section chief mean by that?

He became the team leader, and Endo took over as the deputy team leader; this was the best outcome.

"You've just been promoted, so get some results soon. I'm waiting for your good news. Go back now."

Saito offered no explanation, simply waving Sato away.

"Please rest assured, Section Chief, I will definitely produce results as soon as possible."

Sato quickly lowered his head and carefully left the office. Saito glanced at him and shook his head slightly.

Sato was indeed his confidant, but even as a confidant, he couldn't be allowed to wield absolute power.

The intelligence team leader holds a high position and wields great power. If the deputy team leader is also Sato's man, and he achieves great success in the future, it will fuel Sato's ambition.

Saito will not allow, nor will he allow, such a situation to occur.

This is not about interpersonal relationships or professional skills; it's about politics.

That's how Saito saw it.

"Team leader, congratulations!"

The intelligence team was already waiting. Endo was the first to come and congratulate them. He knew that Sato had been promoted and that Sato would propose to the section chief that he take over as deputy section chief.

He's finally getting a promotion, though it's only as a deputy, but it's still a team leader position.

He's about to join the ranks of team leaders.
