Chapter 88: 84 Spy
"Hanxiang Building, Yu Lan?!"
Luo Kezhao’s eyes widened in shock, his body freezing in place as a fine layer of cold sweat formed on his forehead.
Luo Peiyun glanced at his son with an expression that was pregnant with meaning.
"Yu Lan?"
Fang Zhixing’s brows slightly furrowed, and he suddenly shuddered.
If he remembered correctly, the artist that Luo Kezhao had favored last night was named Yu Lan, quite a beauty with natural peachy cheeks and a face that was easy on the eyes.
Luo Qianqian turned her head and cast a surprised look at Luo Kezhao, exclaiming, "Isn’t Yu Lan the performer you fancied? You even wanted to buy her freedom, keep her, and take her as a concubine!"
Luo Kezhao’s mouth went dry; shaking his head, he said, "It can’t be her, she absolutely can’t be a spy. She’s so sweet and compliant, how could she possibly be colluding with the rebels?"
Luo Peiyun asked indifferently, hands behind his back, "What if she were a spy?"
"This..."
Luo Kezhao’s adam’s apple bobbed, his face flushed, and he shook uncontrollably.
He dared not think further.
But Luo Peiyun was relentless, asking, "Before the last time the military pay was robbed, did you mention the transportation route of the silver to Yu Lan?"
"Ah?!!"
Luo Kezhao stepped back in shock as if his tail had been trodden on, his mouth agape but unable to utter a word.
Luo Peiyun continued, "The last time I went to Songlin Temple to offer incense, did you mention it to her?"
Luo Kezhao’s expression changed drastically; he fell to his knees with a thud, his forehead touching the ground, sweating profusely.
Luo Peiyun sighed, taking his time to withdraw a document from his sleeve and threw it in front of Luo Kezhao. "See for yourself."
Shaking hands, Luo Kezhao opened the document. Upon seeing its contents, he was struck as if by lightning, completely dumbfounded.
Fang Zhixing sneaked a few glances and was greatly shocked.
The document recorded Yu Lan’s activities over the past few days, along with the people she had been in contact with.
Yu Lan had a wide social circle, not only captivating Luo Kezhao, but she, and the arrest officer Dong Xianhe, also had a liaison.
Dong Xianhe was of the Dong Family, a subordinate of Ding Zhigang!
The man appeared to be completely under Yu Lan’s control, at her beck and call, an absolute lapdog.
Moreover, Dong Xianhe was a bigmouth, boasting about his power and high standing in the County Government, talking about secrets without reservation.
From Luo Kezhao and Dong Xianhe, Yu Lan could almost obtain any information she wanted.
"Bitch, this bitch!"
Luo Kezhao exploded with rage, his face contorted with ferocity, his teeth clenched so hard they might break.
He was not only deceived by Yu Lan but had been cuckolded!
Upon seeing this, Luo Qianqian laughed mockingly, "No way, you got played by a whore, when this gets out, you will have lost all our Luo Family’s face."
Luo Kezhao turned pale, loudly declaring, "Father, I will capture Yu Lan immediately to atone for my sins."
Luo Peiyun responded coolly, "By the time you come to your senses, it will be too late. By my calculations, Yu Lan should already have been captured."
Luo Kezhao gasped in shock, incredulously asking, "Father, you knew there was something wrong with Yu Lan all along?"
Luo Peiyun nodded, "Before, because I couldn’t be entirely sure she was a spy, I didn’t want to startle the snakes."
Luo Kezhao suddenly realized what had happened, and his spirits deflated, his face showing defeat.
Ding Zhigang’s mind reeled, his eyes spinning rapidly as he blurted, "Sir, besides Yu Lan, there must be other spies working with her."
Luo Peiyun sneered, "None of them will escape."
At those words!
Ding Zhigang involuntarily drew in a breath of cold air, bowing his head deeply, his face filled with immense awe.
Quite the turn!
So all along, everything was under Luo Peiyun’s control.
They had been busy for nothing.
At this moment, Fang Zhixing subtly bowed his head, eyes on his nose and nose on his heart.
At Songlin Temple, he had surmised there were spies within the Government Office.
Luo Peiyun apparently had thought the same and had started a secret investigation without sound.
Since Fang Zhixing arrived at the Government Office, he had actually been under Luo Peiyun’s constant surveillance.
Now it seemed that Luo Peiyun’s close monitoring of him was perhaps due to a lack of complete trust and to catch spies.
Fang Zhixing was one of the rebels’ targets, and the spies would certainly make a move on him.
Therefore, by monitoring Fang Zhixing, they could uncover any clues.
And today was the day to close the net!
Fang Zhixing was curious about the spy hidden within the Government Office, who could it be?
He didn’t have to wait long before three people were arrested and thrown into the dungeon.
One adult and two teenagers, about ten years old each.
"It’s you?!"
Upon recognizing the three people, Ding Zhigang exclaimed in shock and disbelief.
Fang Zhixing carefully observed the three, feeling a sense of familiarity, although he was sure he had never met them before.
"Who are they?" he asked.
Ding Zhigang, with his tongue tied, replied, "On the street next to the Government Office, there’s a breakfast stall, and they are the owner and his two sons. They’ve been running that stall in that place for over twenty years."
"It’s them, no wonder they looked familiar to me."
Fang Zhixing came to a realization, recalling the stall located at the corner, where looking up from it, one could see the gate of the County Government.
Ding Zhigang personally went to interrogate them.
The owner’s name was Xu Dali, known as Old Xu among neighbors and residents, an honest and simple man with a good reputation.
Ding Zhigang had sometimes gone to his stall for breakfast, and, in fact, many Government Officials had frequented it; he was an old acquaintance.
"Old Xu, what is going on?"
Ding Zhigang didn’t come on strong, nor was there a need.
