An Yi wandered around the street under the pretense of shopping, which actually led her to find Hou Liang's residence.

In fact, the hotel where Hou Liang lives is not difficult to find, because Hou Liang still needs to go to the hospital for treatment frequently, so the place where he lives must be not far from the hospital, and there is still some peace of mind.

After Hou Liang was tortured, he was treated in the Army General Hospital. This is an important clue.

Relying on this clue, An Yi found the White Swan Hotel where Hou Liang lived within a day.

The White Swan Hotel is only two streets away from the Army General Hospital. After noon, An Yi squatted in the teahouse opposite the White Swan Hotel drinking tea, monitoring the movement on the opposite side.

In the afternoon, she saw Hou Liang, supported by two agents from the Fuxing Society, walking out of the door and getting into a car parked at the door, accompanied by only two agents.

An Yi sat without moving. Two hours later, she saw the car come back and parked at the door of the hotel.Hou Liang got out of the car and walked into the hotel with the support of two agents.

An Yi came out of the teahouse and casually walked across the two streets, like a woman who had nothing to do and was wandering the streets.

An Yi walked into the White Swan Hotel and asked if there was any availability at the counter. She wanted to book a room.

The female staff at the counter looked at her in surprise, thinking that she didn't seem like someone who came to stay.

An Yi said that people from her hometown would come to the Army General Hospital for treatment, and she was afraid that they would not be able to book a room when they arrived, so she came to see it first.

The female employee let down her vigilance and told her that there are many vacant rooms, so there is no need to rush to book in advance, guests can come to open rooms at any time.

An Yi felt strange, how could hotels and inns refuse guests' requests for advance reservations?If you book a room, you can get some handling fee in advance. If the customer cancels the reservation, the handling fee will not be refunded.

"Can't you book a room in advance here?" she asked.

"Of course, but... we don't recommend customers to do this." The female employee said and looked at a corner of the hall.

An Yi followed her gaze, and saw a man in a white shirt and sunglasses sitting on the sofa in the hall reading a newspaper, she immediately understood.

"My family members have leg problems and can't go upstairs. Can you guarantee a vacant room on the first floor, or I'll book one right now." An Yi said.

Out of the corner of An Yi's eyes, she kept staring at the man sitting on the sofa. Sure enough, she heard that she was going to book a room on the first floor. The man raised his head and wanted to stand up, but then he thought for a while, and then continued to look down at the newspaper.

The female employee looked in the direction of the man in some panic, and couldn't help but said in a panic: "There are no... vacant rooms on the first and first floors, and they are all full."

An Yi asked again if there would be any guests checking out in the next few days, and the female employee quickly shook her head, her expression was hardly a denial, but a rejection.

An Yi deliberately asked the female staff for help, saying that her family members had leg problems and could not go upstairs, so they could only live on the first floor.

Suddenly, a little boy ran out from a room on the first floor, yelling for ice cream, a young woman behind him was chasing him, telling him not to run around, and then another man in a white shirt followed Come out with a gloomy expression on his face.

When they walked over, An Yi saw that the man's back was bulging, and there was obviously a pistol inside.

An Yi saw the room the little boy ran out of, which should be Room 104.

Then she saw Hou Liang again. He was sitting in a wheelchair, being pushed by a man, and another man was watching the surroundings for vigilance. Both men were wearing white shirts, black trousers and black leather shoes of the same color. wear sunglasses.

An Yi didn't continue to ask, because if she asked again, there would be a problem, so she smiled apologetically, and walked out leisurely.

When she passed by Hou Liang who was sitting in a wheelchair, she obviously felt a kind of tension, which was not emanating from her body, but emanating from those two men.

Out of the corner of her eye, she caught sight of both men reaching out to touch their lower backs, and then stopped.

Hou Liang, who was sitting in a wheelchair, also looked at An Yi, but An Yi was wearing a straw hat and sunglasses, so he couldn't see An Yi's face clearly.

An Yi also had an impulse in an instant. At this moment, she only needed to take out the pistol in her handbag to kill Hou Liang with one shot, because Hou Liang's head was within reach.

But An Yi resisted the temptation, she knew that even if she succeeded, she would be shot and killed by two agents.

Although An Yi's movements were slow and her posture was elegant, she didn't stop. She walked past Hou Liang, and the tension disappeared.

An Yi didn't go to the teahouse opposite to drink tea anymore, she walked two streets, then got into a rickshaw and went home.

"You mean Hou Liang has four agents from the Fuxing Society?" Mr. Dong asked after listening to An Yi's narration.

"I only saw four. It's hard to say if there are any other spies." An Yi said, sipping herbal tea.

"Don't worry about this matter. I'll check the situation tomorrow." Mr. Dong said.

"No, this task is mine, you can't interfere." An Yi said decisively.

"Today you have been exposed to the spies of the Fuxing Agency. You cannot continue to monitor tomorrow, or the spies will become suspicious." Mr. Dong said the common sense of underground work.

If a woman showed up at that hotel for two days in a row, the secret agents would definitely be on the alert, and they might come forward to question her and even search her belongings.

That might be a bad thing, because there was a pistol in An Yi's handbag, and if he was found out, he would be arrested on the spot.

"Don't monitor tomorrow. Hou Liang's condition should need to be treated in the hospital for a long time. He won't leave that hotel in the short term. It won't be too late to find a suitable opportunity." An Yi said.

Back at her old job, something in An Yi revived, and she appeared shrewd and capable again, with a heroic demeanor.

Mr. Dong noticed the changes in An Yi, and he was also very happy, and he didn't want to see An Yi getting depressed day by day.

After sending the telegram to Frank, Lu Ming went to find Sheng Youde again.

It is not he who maintains a close relationship with Britain, but Sheng Youde.

Sheng Youde has a certain influence on the British government, and can even speak to the British royal family.Lu Ming didn't know why Sheng Youde had friendship with the British upper class, he only knew that Sheng Youde was a very good friend with Sir Rothschild of England.

"Do you know why I don't care about this matter?" Sheng Youde said slowly after pouring Lu Ming a glass of whiskey.

Lu Ming looked at Sheng Youde. After a few years, Sheng Youde seemed to be younger, and his every move revealed the aura of a business tycoon.

It seems that since Lu Ming can remember, Sheng Youde has exuded this kind of aura. After more than ten years, the only changes are the increase of wrinkles on Sheng Youde's face and the change of hair color.

The biggest change in the past two years was the period after Sheng Muyi's disappearance. At that time, Sheng Youde was physically and mentally exhausted, like a decaying old man.

After Sheng Di had an accident, the January [-]th incident broke out. Although Sheng Youde was very angry, his mental strength did not weaken, and he even accumulated some energy because of his anger.

For a while, Sheng Youde recharged his energy, his whole body seemed to have been filtered, and his energy and spirit appeared completely new.

However, in the matter of Ning Xin'er's kidnapping, Sheng Youde did not work hard, Lu Ming had already seen it, but there was nothing he could do.

Lu Ming hurried back to Shanghai from Nanjing, and was ambushed by Manchurian agents on the way, all of which seemed to have been expected by Sheng Youde.

During this period of time, Lu Ming visited Sheng Youde in Lingering Garden three times, expressing his concern about Ning Xiner's kidnapping.

Obviously, Lu Ming thought that the Japanese were making waves. If Sheng Youde followed his usual attitude towards Japan, he would definitely ask carefully, and might also help Lu Ming make suggestions.

However, Sheng Youde just laughed it off, neither showing indignation nor making any claims.

Lu Ming knew that Sheng Youde had never been interested in gang organizations, and had no relationship with the Cao Gang. Sheng Youde had helped the Cao Gang overcome the difficulties of smuggling arms, and it was also because of him and Mingzhu.

Now that Lu Ming has made such a big commotion, is Sheng Youde still indifferent?

Lu Ming was not sure, but he was very puzzled. Why did Sheng Youde, who has always supported him, keep silent on this issue?

Maybe Sheng Youde thinks that the heat is not enough, so he continues to sit firmly on the Diaoyutai?

No way, the fire is already imminent, why is it still not ready?I have to ask him for an explanation today, and I can't delay like this any longer.

Lu Ming shouted in his heart.He had to rely on Sheng Youde's power to solve this problem thoroughly.
