Chapter 541
Wu Sibao, the devil of the world, is dead, and the people of Huxi will celebrate for three days with gongs and drums and firecrackers!
This guy was a 鈥渃hild-calming鈥� figure in Huxi and even on the Shanghai Bund.
鈥淟et’s go and take a look.鈥�
鈥淢r. Cheng, shall we go to No. 76?鈥� Qin Chi asked with wide eyes.
“Well, we just sent a letter to the family, and the person died. We have to go and take a look,鈥� Cheng Mo said, 鈥淲e have to see for ourselves that the person is dead, so that we can rest assured!鈥�
鈥淎ren’t we being a bit petty?鈥�
鈥淲u Sibao and I have a grudge, and I’m more than happy that he’s dead. What petty? That doesn’t apply to me.鈥� Cheng Mo waved his hand and said, 鈥淕o downstairs and get the car, and just the two of us will go over there.鈥�
鈥淛ust the two of us…鈥�
“Don’t worry, we’re here to pay our condolences, not to cause trouble. What are you afraid of?鈥� Cheng Mo gave Qin Chi a reassuring look.
Qin Chi’s eyelid twitched. You are clearly enjoying the show and don’t care how big the trouble is.
But if Cheng Mo himself isn’t afraid, how can Qin Chi be afraid? At worst, he’ll risk his life to keep the company.
No. 76 did not have a special freezer.
After Wu Sibao’s body was transported back, it could only be placed in the auditorium, surrounded by ice to slow down the decomposition of the body.
The person who died did not feel any pain, but he was not satisfied with death.
The fatal wound was a shot to the right forehead, and the bullet was still inside the skull. To remove it, one would have to perform a craniotomy.
This was obviously unacceptable, especially to Wu Sibao’s wife, She Aizhen, who had already accepted the news and fainted from crying.
It was not that their relationship was deep, but the loss of Wu Sibao as a husband and pillar of support would make her life difficult from now on.
With Wu Sibao by her side, she was still the She Laosan who could call the shots on the Shanghai waterfront. Without Wu Sibao, she was nothing.
Ji Yunqing was dead, and besides her high status, Sister-in-Law Jinbao no longer cared about anything. She could no longer protect herself. She could also see Lin Shiqun’s cold-heartedness, and if Wu Sibao hadn’t been sent away by him, he would still be alive.
This person is too ruthless and not someone who can be trusted.
But my own value is nothing more than those unscrupulous tricks in the marketplace, which are not at all looked down upon in the eyes of the bigwigs.
Today it was Wu Siba who died, but who will it be tomorrow? The more people who die, the more people who come to pay their respects to Wu Siba’s remains. The agents from No. 76 all feel a sense of kinship, and who knows, could the next one to die be themselves?
Even with such tight security, someone was still able to kill him. Who would feel absolutely safe in the future?
People’s minds were in turmoil.
It could be said that the minds of many people in Unit 76 had started to waver.
Ding Mucun was also shocked when he saw Wu Sibao’s body. Although Peng Nian had hinted to him that if Wu Sibao left Shanghai, he would never be able to return,
Peng Nian was even more afraid to meet Wu Sibao’s unblinking eyes. He had contributed to Wu’s death.
Although he didn’t know if the person was killed by 鈥淐heng Mo鈥�, the person was lying in front of him, dead, which was true.
What kind of supernatural power did this Cheng Mo have that he could actually achieve this? It is said that the plan to send Wu Sibao away was specially arranged by Lin Shiqun, who deliberately let Lin Zhijiang get a person with a similar build to impersonate Wu Sibao on the train to Yuhang. The result was that the killer knew a secret that even Lin Shiqun didn’t know, and he even intercepted him precisely halfway.
Not only did he kill Wu Sibao, but he also took Yu Bailu with him. No. 76 lost two of its top men at once, especially since they were both under Lin Shiqun’s command.
Peng Nian glanced at Ding Mucun with a sad face and noticed that although he looked shocked, he was acting normal. He also went to visit She Aizhen in the rest room and ordered Lin Shiqun to solve the case of Wu Sibao and his entourage being killed. Then he left.
Lin Shiqun must be seething with anger after Wu Sibao’s death. He doesn’t want to go and touch his bad luck. If the case is not solved and the murderer is not caught, it’s not his fault.
From beginning to end, Lin Shiqun and Lin Zhijiang arranged how to send Wu Sibao away, and he knew nothing about it.
You quietly sent the person away, but the news leaked, and the person was killed before he left Shanghai. What does that have to do with me? If you’re so capable, you find the murderer yourself and take your revenge.
What about Wu Sibao’s funeral? This was also a difficult problem that Lin Shiqun faced.
It must be a big event.
But what specifications should it have? Not only should it consider the living, but also the dead in the future. It must be higher than the specifications for those who were assassinated before, such as He Tianfeng.
In particular, the people carrying the coffin, the scale of the Buddhist services, etc.
And who is going to pay for the funeral? If it’s a big deal, the cost can be quite high. There’s also the issue of the death benefit, all of which needs to be considered.
First, a 鈥渇uneral committee鈥� was set up, with Lin Shiqun himself as the team leader, which was a first in the history of No. 76.
In theory, Ding Mucun was the director, so he should have been the team leader. However, he didn’t want to fight for the title, and his relationship with Wu Sibao was not that good. Wu Sibao had spoken rudely to him both publicly and privately, and it was a good thing that he didn’t stop him.
Then there was a list of names, all of them under Lin Shiqun, and the Ding faction was completely excluded.
Since none of them were on the list, some people who had been thinking about coming to take a look simply decided not to come at all.
鈥淒irector, Chief Inspector Cheng Mo of the Chinese Section of the Special Branch of the Public Works Department is here.鈥�
鈥淲hy is he here?鈥� Lin Shiqun exclaimed in surprise when he heard the secretary’s report. The news of Wu Sibao’s death could not be kept secret, but it shouldn’t have spread so quickly. 鈥淒id he say why he was here?鈥�
“Yes, to offer his condolences to Captain Wu.鈥�
Damn it!
Lin Shiqun really wanted to scold someone and send them away, but that would have a negative impact. After all, the person wasn’t here to cause trouble.
No matter what, No. 76 should still show some hospitality.
鈥淥pen the door, welcome the guest, and ask Ye Wen to go to the door to greet him. Bring him directly to the reception room,鈥� Lin Shiqun instructed.
The Ye Wen he mentioned was Fu Ye Wen, the director of the confidential affairs department, and also his brother-in-law and a member of his own team.
鈥淵es.鈥�
At the door, Cheng Mo had been sitting in the car for ten minutes, and had not seen anyone else come out to greet him.
鈥漃resident Cheng, are we going to get the cold shoulder?鈥�
鈥漀o, even if they don’t let us in, they have to give us a reason. We’re not bad guests,鈥� Cheng Mo said. 鈥滲e patient, we came suddenly, we have to give them some time to get ready.鈥�
鈥淢r. Cheng, you have a great attitude.鈥�
鈥漈his is not a good attitude, but to remain calm in a crisis, not panic. Even if someone doesn’t let us in, it’s no big deal,鈥� Cheng Mo said.
As soon as the words fell, the door to No. 76 opened, and one person ran out, followed by two or three others, obviously to greet them.
