Chapter 161 Confrontation
Seeing that he was the only one talking nonsense, Jiangkou Jianyi stopped pretending and looked at Xiao Cui and said, "Shopkeeper Cui, when I invited you to my house for a chat, you said you never go out and only listen to your boss! But it's been such a long time since I saw your boss. You can't let me wait forever!"
As he spoke, he looked at Xu Le and the others and continued, "I once again sincerely invite you to attend the dance tonight and be my dance partner. Please don't refuse, Shopkeeper Cui!"
Xu Le still didn't say anything, and looked at Jiangkou Jianyi with a smile.
He had previously planned how to get rid of Kenichi Eguchi, but this change has made the plan scrapped.
He now wants to see what tricks the Lu family and the Japanese are going to play!
Seeing Xu Le nod, Xiao Cui said, "Major Jiangkou, what a coincidence, my boss is the person next to you. But I'm sorry to disappoint you, my boss won't let me go!"
After confirming who the boss was, Jiangkou Jianyi took out a box-type pistol, wiped the gun, and walked to Xu Le and said, "So this is the boss. I heard from Cui that you don't agree with her being my dance partner! Maybe you didn't hear clearly, I'll ask you again, do you agree?"
This is a naked threat, a tactic often used by the Japanese to use force to coerce people.
Xu Le remained calm, hugged Xiao Cui in his arms and said, "It's good enough that I don't curse your ancestors for eighteen generations. Do you think I would agree?"
"idiot!"
This scene immediately angered Jiangkou Jianyi. She thought Xu Le was Xiao Cui's relative, so she wanted to intimidate Xu Le.
However, seeing this scene, everyone knew that Xiao Cui was Xu Le's woman, but Xiao Cui had never said it before, which made him feel that he was being played.
He immediately pointed his gun at Xu Le, and the other 20 or so Japanese soldiers also raised their Type rifles and aimed them at the rest of the people in the store.
Xu Le was naturally not someone to be trifled with. Xu Da, Jiu Ba and others also pulled out their pistols and pointed them at Jiangkou Jianyi.
Seeing this, Jiangkou Jianyi was furious again: "Baga, you are guerrillas, arrest them all!"
Xu Le smiled slightly: "Oh? Why do you say I am a guerrilla? Why do you arrest me?"
The Japanese naturally had no evidence, but the guerrillas had a very strong ability to infiltrate and were lurking in various places. In order to wipe out the guerrillas' hiding people, they arrested and interrogated anyone with a gun as a guerrilla.
"I am a soldier of the Empire. You dare to point a gun at me. Just based on this fact, I can arrest you and interrogate you strictly. I am not afraid that you will not confess! Come on, arrest them all!"
But Xu Le would not give in, nor was he afraid that the matter would get out of hand. Or rather, he knew that the matter would not get out of hand, and someone would come forward to mediate.
And even if a fight really broke out, Xu Shiyi and others hiding upstairs could kill all the Japanese in an instant.
Then she would lead Xiao Cui away from Fenyang. At worst, she would send people to set up a new intelligence station. Anyway, the purpose of his visit this time was to deal with Jiangkou Jianyi.
Just when the two sides were in a stalemate and could open fire at any time, a group of people rushed in.
"Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings."
Xiao Cui leaned over to Xu Le's ear and said, "This person is Lu Ningyi, and the person next to him is Lu Yanhao!"
Jiangkou Jianyi still held the gun and said, "So it's President Lu, what do you mean by misunderstanding?"
Lu Ningyi first looked at Xu Le, then explained: "Major Jiangkou, as the chairman of the maintenance association, I naturally need some of my own strength, otherwise how can I complete the tasks you have assigned me!"
"You mean, this Ruyi Restaurant is your subordinate?"
"Yes, I asked Shopkeeper Cui to take over this place in order to collect intelligence and make it easier for me to do things! Otherwise, I wouldn't have protected them before. As for these guns, I prepared them for them. You also know how cunning the guerrillas are. I have to let them have the ability to protect themselves!"
Jiangkou Jianyi asked with a hint of doubt: "Is it really like this?"
Lu Ningyi came to Xiao Cui and said, "Captain Jiangkou doesn't trust me? How about we go to the colonel and talk it out?"
"No need. Since this is President Lu's man, then this is just a misunderstanding. In that case, I am sorry for disturbing you."
After saying this, Kenichi Eguchi led his men away. He believed that if the matter was reported to the colonel, it would be left unresolved and he might even be blamed.
What Lu Ningyi said was also true, which also explained why Lu's Trading Company had been helping Ruyi Restaurant.
.....
After a while, seeing that there were no outsiders in the room, Lu Ningyi looked at Xu Le and said, "I guess this must be the boss. It's really better to meet him in person than to hear about him. He is indeed a handsome man!"
Xu Le waved his hand, signaling the ambushing Eleven and others to retreat, and then said sternly: "I recognize that he is a handsome man, but I don't know when President Lu has heard of me? What's the saying that hearing about me is not as good as meeting me in person?"
Lu Ningyi twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Isn't this just a polite remark? How can I continue if you are so serious about it?"
It was only later that he realized Xu Le's waving hand, so he looked around and immediately a cold sweat broke out on his back.
This is a ruthless person. It turns out he had ambushed people long ago.
Now he felt a little regretful. He regretted arranging someone to secretly pass the news of Xu Le's arrival to Jiangkou Jianyi!
Without waiting for Lu Ningyi to speak, Xu Le turned and walked towards the inner hall.
"Come with me!"
Lu Ningyi hesitated for a moment, then took Lu Yanhao and followed, asking the others to wait outside!
......
In the living room, before Lu Ningyi sat down on the chair, Xu Le's voice came over.
"What does President Lu want?"
Lu Ningyi sat down on the chair unhurriedly and asked with confusion: "I don't understand what you are saying!"
Xu Le: "Only Master Ling and Daughter Ling knew that I came to Ruyi Restaurant. Jiangkou Jianyi came at such a coincidence. It's hard to think that this has something to do with President Lu."
Lu Ningyi was stunned: Only my son knows about this? I didn't tell you about this. If I had told you, I would definitely not dare to do this.
But now that things have come to this, there is nothing to hide. Moreover, when he knew that there were people lying in ambush in secret, he believed that if he did not tell the truth, he would not be able to leave this door.
He gave Lu Yanhao a look of disappointment, then confessed, "Yes, I was the one who spread the news to Jiangkou Jianyi!"
"reason?"
"I believe you know something about me. Whether it's because I'm a Tang citizen or because of my wife's murder, the Japanese and I are sworn enemies. I will avenge myself sooner or later!
I had been secretly accumulating strength until the appearance of Shopkeeper Cui, which gave me a glimmer of hope.
But Shopkeeper Cui only said that Ruyi Tower was the property of the 176th Master. How could I dare to bet my entire fortune on this one-sided statement? That’s why I took this opportunity to test your methods!”
At this point, he shook his head slightly and said, "I just didn't expect that you would act so arrogantly and dare to fight the devils in broad daylight. But it makes me believe in your strength!"
"What do you want? What can you give me?" Xu Le interrupted Lu Ningyi. He really didn't want to waste his breath.
Lu Ningyi's mouth twitched again, and he couldn't even express his emotions.
"I want you to help me kill the military police commander, Miyazaki Longjing. He thought I didn't know that he deliberately ordered the murder of my wife in order to intimidate me. As for repayment, my Lu family will fully assist your work in Fenyang, Xiaoyi, Jiexiu and Pingyao."
