Cold snap!

The news was like a cold wave, spreading through the capital. From near evening, some people who witnessed the attack first spread the news by word of mouth.

The Prime Minister was assassinated!

What, again?

The first reaction of almost everyone is the same. This is the third time. The first time was in Lianyungang, the second time was in Shanghai, and now, it is in Beijing again.

Could it be that...

While people were passing this on, they instinctively thought that he was the one behind the scenes!

It's Yuan Shikai!

Considering the undercurrents surging under the appearance of harmony between the government and the court, it seems that it is really possible, but is it really Yuan Shikai?

No, it couldn't be Yuan Shikai. Yuan Shikai would not be stupid enough to take action in the capital, on his territory.

"I didn't do it!"

Yuan Shikai's first reaction was to defend himself loudly, but in Jurentang, no one except Lei Zhenchun, the director of the Military and Political Law Enforcement Department, could hear his defense.

"How is it? Zhiyuan, how is Zhiyuan's situation now?"

"Back to the President, except for a few injured guards, the Prime Minister was not injured. However, his schedule did not change afterwards. He has now taken a bus to Tianjin to attend the completion ceremony of the Beijing-Tianjin Highway!"

Lei Zhenchun didn't take it seriously for the president's previous defense. Anyone could guess that it wasn't the president, but everyone would guess that this Li Zhiyuan... seriously...

…

"Go to Tianjin, completion ceremony..."

Yuan Shikai murmured on his lips, but in the end he said a little weakly.

"Quick, prepare the car immediately. We are also going to Tianjin to attend the completion ceremony!"

Yuan Shikai, who had been living deep in Zhongnanhai for fear of being assassinated, knew that this time, no matter what, he had to go out and see Li Zicheng. No matter what, he had to use his actions to prove it.

His innocence.

"President, now..."

Lei Zhenchun couldn't help but be stunned, but he didn't expect that the president would come up with such an idea. Why is the president going to Tianjin now? To prove his innocence?

Can……

"President, let's..."

But before he finished speaking, Lei Zhenchun saw dissatisfaction on the president's face. It was obvious that the president had made up his mind.

"Damn guy."

Thinking about Li Zhiyuan's assassination, thinking that not only did he survive, but he might even become president...

"He's so fucking lucky!"

Good luck!

When Lei Zhenchun thought so in his mind, in an inconspicuous building in the inner city, in the conference room of the Secret Service Bureau of the Ministry of Finance, an emergency meeting was held. After listening to the report of his subordinates, Li Siqin

He looked at everyone coldly and then said.

"Okay, now can any of you tell me who planned this!"

His tone was gentle, as usual, but at this time, anyone could hear that Li Siqin's attitude was extremely cold.

"Seat,"

Fang Tianyang from the Intelligence Department quickly explained,

"In the past period of time, the Intelligence Section has been paying attention to the safety of the constitutional representatives, and..."

"No, my Section Chief Fang, you must know that this is your dereliction of duty! No! It is dereliction of duty!"

After the stern accusation, the entire conference room immediately fell into silence, and the air became tense. Maybe outsiders didn't know what the Prime Minister meant to the Director, but they knew very well that the Director had always regarded himself as the Li family member.

people, and now his master was attacked. As a result, as the intelligence chief, he did not receive any intelligence. How could this not make him angry? After receiving the intelligence, they were already prepared to be approved, but they did not

What I thought was that the director's words would be so serious...

"I just remember what you said before, Chief Fang,"

Li Siqin continued to say coldly,

"You told me that in Beijing and Tianjin, even if a fly flies over, he will report to you, hum..."

At this time, his sneer sounded even more harsh in the silent conference room. With the director's laughter, everyone turned their eyes from Fang Tianyang's face to the conference table.

At this time, Fang Tianyang's face turned pale, and his hands were shaking slightly as he packed the documents into the folder. He didn't know how to explain it.

"Then... now tell me, it was that fly that did this!"

Li Siqin still asked reluctantly.

Fang Tianyang sat there silently, but his gray face and the sweat on his forehead gave away everything.

Finally, after a moment of silence, Fang Tianyang slowly stood up, and all the eyes of the audience turned to him.

"Sir, I regret to report to you that this - this is my dereliction of duty. It was my dereliction of duty that led to this incident... Please, please forgive me."

After that, he bowed to Li Siqin and then left the venue. At this time, the atmosphere in the conference room became even colder.

After leaving the conference room in despair, Fang Tianyang cast a glance at the colleagues around him. Whether it was sympathy or confusion, Fang Tianyang did not notice it. Finally, after walking through a long corridor, in the office area of ​​the Intelligence Department,

He saw Wang Mu, the deputy section chief.

"Section Chief..."

Fang Tianyang smiled sadly, patted his shoulder, and said.

"My safe passwords are 3, 26, and 17. Okay, I'll look at yours later..."

After saying that, he walked into the office, completely ignoring Wang Mu's strange look. After entering the office, he picked up a pen and wrote first a short message, and then another.

"Boss, I bear the unshirkable responsibility for this mistake. If the Prime Minister had an accident, it would be...fortunate to God's blessing. However, how can we cover up the crime of dereliction of duty..."

After writing this letter, Fang Tianyang opened the drawer of his desk, and a black Type III police pistol was placed in it. He took out the pistol, and a sad smile appeared on his face. The Secret Service will never accept any negligence.

"well……"

With a long sigh, he loaded the gun, turned on the safety, put the gun against his temple, and pulled the trigger.

"...for now..."

Bang... through the door, a faint gunshot was heard. Everyone was stunned when they heard the gunshot, including Li Siqin, and Wang Mu, who was reporting, was listening.

When the gun went off, he trembled all over, and he vaguely guessed that the section chief had done what he thought was the right thing.

Minutes later, a secretary came in.

"Chief Fang of the Bureau's Intelligence Section committed suicide in his office!"

committed suicide!

A bloody suicide note was placed on the conference table, but Li Siqin didn't even look at it. Everyone in the conference stared at it and sat there in silence.

"die,"

It was only then that Li Siqin's voice became slightly calmer.

"Can death solve the problem? If something happens to the Prime Minister, all of us will die! Wang Mu, now you will take over as the head of the Intelligence Section!"

"Yes! Bureau seat!"

Without any hesitation, Wang Mu continued to report, mentioning all the information he currently had.

"From the current point of view, we have reason to suspect that the so-called assassination of the constitutional representatives should be false information sent by the Revolutionary Party. Their purpose is to interfere with our intelligence work and create opportunities for the assassination of the Prime Minister!"

Finally, Wang Mu added.

"According to the intelligence obtained by the target, he used a submachine gun in the assassination. Submachine guns are strictly controlled weapons by the military, so it is not ruled out that the assassins have military backgrounds. Otherwise, it would be difficult for them to obtain such weapons. And in

There has never been a loss of submachine guns on the black market, so my suggestion is that we should start with weapons.”…

"In terms of weapons."

Nodding and taking Wang Mu's words, Li Siqin said,

"We will collude with the Military and Law Enforcement Department to determine the source of the other party's weapons. The most important thing now is to avoid similar incidents from happening again. Now the news about this matter in Beijing has spread throughout the country.

Newspapers will report this incident soon, so we must communicate well with the press. At the same time, the police stations in Beijing and Tianjin, the Central Police Headquarters, and the internal affairs team will all be dispatched. They will be on the streets without exception.

Check all suspects."

While he was speaking, Wang Muhe, like other attendees, was busy jotting down key points.

Li Siqin continued to talk.

"I don't trust the police very much, so in order to solve this case as soon as possible, I asked the Operations Division,"

He turned his attention to the person in charge of the operations department.

"Check the strongholds of the Revolutionary Party and local people that we have already grasped one by one. Are you clear?"
