Chapter 395 The Information Is Disclosed.
Kato looks at Yi Yunrui. He finds Yi Yunrui’s eyes very sharp as if he can look through his soul. He feels a little scared.
That is weird.
Generally speaking, the legal society and the illegal society are enemies to each other. Kato has dealt with a lot of police. He has lived through battles of bullets. He doesn’t know why he has an urge to give in when facing Yi Yunrui!
Yi Yunrui comes to negotiate with him. But Yi Yunrui sounds so powerfully decisive…
Anyway, the case was arranged by the army. He has to keep some s.p.a.ce for himself. At least, he has to make sure that his boss Yagi will be safe.
“All right. I can free Long Shaojie, under one condition.”
Yi Yunrui freezes his eyes, “Go on.”
“You come to take his place as my hostage!”
Hearing this, Yi Yunrui narrows his eyes, “OK.”
“Put all your weapons on the ground. Take off your army uniform.”
“I don’t take any weapon with me.” Yi Yunrui says in a deep voice, “And, I will not take off my army uniform, unless I am dead.”
Kato feels shocked to find Yi Yunrui respond with such a tough att.i.tude.
Can the army uniform be so important to him that he can even give up his life for it?
It looks that Yi Yunrui will not give in at all. Kato thinks for a while and he himself feels shocked by his decision. He says, “OK. You are not going to take it off. Come here.”
It is far more advantageous for him to kidnap Yi Yunrui than to kidnap the little boy. In addition, Yi Yunrui is a very important person for the army. Kato finds no loss at the exchange.
Yi Yunrui moves. He looks straightly at Kato when going to him step by step.
“Stop!” When Yi Yunrui is about five steps away from him, Kato says, “Turn around.”
Yi Yunrui stops and turns around.
“Long Shaojie, you are lucky. Leave here within ten seconds. Or, I will shoot you!” Kato pushes Long Shaojie away.
Long Shaojie staggers and falls to the ground. He neglects the pain and gets up to run away from the warehouse at once.
At the time, Kato rushes to Yi Yunrui. He holds Yi Yunrui’s neck with his left hand and points the gun with his right hand on Yi Yunrui’s head, “Tell me within one minute. When can Yagi be sent back to j.a.pan?”
“There is some procedure work. It will be done within a week.”
A week? Kato feels shocked.
“That is too late. Three days. If not, you will starve in this warehouse!” Kato presses his hand more tightly on Yi Yunrui’s neck!
Yi Yunrui feels he can hardly breathe. He frowns. But he doesn’t speak anything. Someone else who suffers this pain may faint.
Kato feels surprised that Yi Yunrui looks calmly indifferent to the pain. He presses him more forcefully, trying to force him to faint.
Then, he finds that Yi Yunrui loosens his hands while his tall body seems to get a little shorter.
He is a human being. How can he totally neglect pain?
Kato is thinking of drawing Yi Yunrui aside and tying him up when he suddenly finds that the trigger of his gun gets stuck. He turns to look and sees Yi Yunrui putting a finger on the trigger to prevent him from pressing it!
Kato feels shocked. He wants to press Yi Yunrui again on his neck. But he feels his ribs painful suddenly. Yi Yunrui hits him forcefully with his elbow. Kato groans and can’t help bending his body.
Kato loosens his hand on Yi Yunrui’s neck. Yi Yunrui grabs his hand while his body turns backwards. Kato’s hand is drawn to his own back.
Kato feels painful. Unconsciously, he kneels on the ground. But he tries hard to stand up at once. At the time, Yi Yunrui kicks him forcefully at the back of his knee. Kato kneels to the ground again.
Yi Yunrui turns his hand which has been on the trigger. He pinches Kato between his thumb and index finger forcefully. Kato groans and loosens his hand. The gun falls onto the ground. The gun is kicked far away by Yi Yunrui at once.
Kato’s hands are controlled by Yi Yunrui on his back. Yi Yunrui gives more force and Kato is totally pressed on the ground.
“Hum!” Kato groans and struggles to fight back, “Let me go…Ah!”
He has not finished his words when he suddenly feels his neck painful. Yi Yunrui strikes him with his hand. Kato rolls his eyes and faints. He collapses onto the ground.
“Commander.” At the time, Zhang Hai comes in with a sniper rifle pointing at Kato’s head, “Commander, what should we do now?”
“Take him back to the military region. Deal with him accordingly.”
“Yes, Sir.”
“Wait. Where is Long Shaojie?”
“He has just got in the car and is going home.”
At the time, Yi Yunrui’s phone trembles. He takes out his phone and finds that it is Commander Xie.
“Rui, how is it going on there?”
“It is done. I am coming back now.”
“Oh.” Commander Xie hesitates for a while and says, “Rui, it…Well. We may talk about it after you come back.”
Yi Yunrui feels surprised. Commander Xie seldom swallows back his words. He asks, “Commander Xie, what’s wrong?”
“You may come back first. You will know then.”
Then, Commander Xie hangs up the phone.
Yi Yunrui thinks for a while. He turns to Zhang Hai, “Let’s go.”
“Yes, Sir.”
Kato is taken to another army vehicle. Yi Yunrui sits inside Knight XV. He glances at the time. It is over six in the evening. He wonders whether his wife has got home.
He really misses his wife. Yi Yunrui takes out his phone and calls Xia Ning.
“Darling.” Xia Ning sounds nervous, “About the kidnap of Long Shaojie, whom did you tell except me?”
Yi Yunrui feels very confused to hear his wife’s question, “I told you only.”
Xia Ning hesitates for a while, “Did any other people know this case?”
“It is confidential. No one else knew.”
Xia Ning turns silent for a while!
Yi Yunrui realizes that something is wrong. He asks, “Ning, what happens?”
“I…I…” Xia Ning sounds as if she is going to cry, “Darling, sorry. I really didn’t tell anyone else. But I don’t know how the media learned about the case…Darling, I didn’t tell anyone…”
Yi Yunrui feels his heart tightened, “The media learned about the case? When did they know?”
“Hum. Just now. It is being reported now.”
Yi Yunrui frowns. He thinks for a while and says, “All right. I see. I will take care of it. Ning, don’t worry. I trust you. Wait for me to come home.”
“Hum.”
Yi Yunrui hangs up the phone. He is lost in meditation.
Someone gave away the information?
Who did it?
Fang Youqi? It is unlikely. Fang Youqi is tricky. He wouldn’t tell other people that he has made a mistake. It can’t be Ning. Commander Xie didn’t have any motivations to do so. Then, who can it be?
The car goes ahead. When they get to C Military Region, Zhang Hai says, “Commander, there are many reporters in front of the military region. What do you think happened?”
Yi Yunrui lifts his head. He looks at the crowd of reporters ahead very confusedly, “I don’t know. Go back to the military region. Be careful to drive.”
Zhang Hai Responds and slows down the car.
The reporters see a car approaching. They all hold out their microphones and ask questions, though they don’t know whether the man inside the car can hear them.
“Commander, do you have any comments on the case that Long Shaojie has been kidnapped by Yamaguchi-gumi?”
“Commander, why did the army take the boss of Xuanwu Team of Yamaguchi-gumi? Is it about any secret plans?”
…
The reporters throw their questions at him. Yi Yunrui feels very confused.
How could they know that the boss of the Genbu Team was taken by Fang Youqi to the military region?
There must be an internal traitor. But who can it be?
There are a lot of reporters ahead. Zhang Hai drives very carefully. In the end, the guards stop the reporters and the car is able to go into the military region.
Once he gets off the car, Yi Yunrui goes directly to the headquarters.
All the high-ranking officials are in the headquarters. Commander Xie sees Yi Yunrui. He asks at once, “Have you seen the reporters at the gate?”
Yi Yunrui nods, “Yes.”
“Ah…” Commander Xie shakes his head, “It has become a little complicated. I wonder who disclosed the news.”
“Commander, it is my fault. Please punish me!” Yi Yunrui responds directly.
Commander Xie feels surprised, “What do you mean? It is your fault? What did you do?”
“I violated the regulation and told my wife about the case of Yagi and Long Shaojie. I am wrong. Please punish me.”
Hearing this, Commander Xie widens his eyes. After a while, he waves his hand, “I see. I trust your wife. Now, Long Shaojie has come back. Let’s deal with the media first.”
Yi Yunrui nods, “I will follow your orders.”
Commander Xie knocks at the desk. He thinks for a while and suddenly brightens his eyes. He turns to Yi Yunrui, “Commander Yi, you have to take the responsibility for violating the regulation. You will be recorded with a serious demerit. There is no evidence to prove that you are the main reason for the media issue, but the whole event is caused by you. You will be given two days to get rid of it on your own.”
“Yes, Sir!”
In the media building of World Era Weekly.
Xia Ning stares at the TV which is reporting the news. She clenches her fists tightly.
How was the information disclosed?
She has never told anyone…
Xia Ning purses her lips. She tries carefully to recall what happened when Yi Yunrui called her.
Someone knocks at the door.
Jing Shu opens the door and comes in, “Sister Xia, it is almost seven. Why haven’t you gone home? Are you busy doing anything? Can I help you?”
Jing Shu…
Suddenly, Xia Ning remembers something. She widens her eyes!
When Yi Yunrui talked with her on the phone, Jing Shu came in!
Wait. Could Jing Shu hear the conversation between Yi Yunrui and Xia Ning and then…
Xia Ning looks straightly at Jing Shu, thinking a lot of things.
She really wants to believe that Jing Shu is innocent. However, she remembers Su Xueli, who did something behind her. If Yi Yunrui hadn’t come in time, she would have lost her life.
She can’t trust Jing Shu just by looking at her appearance.
Ever since she met Jing Shu for the second time, everything the girl did seemed to be planned in advance. She shouldn’t be suspicious of the people she uses. Those she doesn’t believe shouldn’t be used at all. But everything seems to be against Jing Shu. It is totally obvious!
Especially the hair on the car…
Jing Shu finds that Xia Ning looks at her with some complicated expressions. She feels very confused. She checks herself over but doesn’t find anything wrong. She asks, “Sister Xia, why do you look at me in this way?”
