Chapter 1283 Enemies Meet on a Narrow Road
His main purpose in coming here was to transport Zhu Qisheng's wealth out of the country.
At present, it seems that as a side effect, we need to destroy the water ghost equipment of the Zhenxi Army, and then follow the clues to find the spies in the Zhenxi Army.
If left unchecked, it will cause even greater losses to your team in the future.
After a moment of contemplation, he finally spoke.
"I don't know when they'll go back. We need to hurry. We'll split up tonight. Jushan will stay here and deal with them. I'll go find Old Zhu's house, and Liangcai will stay close to Shang Keshen to see who he's entrusted with his goods."
On the way, he had already spoken with the two of them in secret, and Ye Liang realized that the contents of the package were of great importance.
They also knew how to track the package's whereabouts.
However, Lin Feng knew that Ye Liangcai's abilities were not yet the same as his own, and he could not project his consciousness outside his body. Therefore, this task would still be quite difficult.
Therefore, Lin Feng's plan is that as long as Ye Liangcai keeps an eye on the package's whereabouts, he will personally retrieve it.
Qiao Jushan's large size, while making him agile and quick, also made him easy to identify, so he had to stay at his residence to deal with emergencies.
The three of them huddled together, discussing the details of their operation, when suddenly there was a knock on the door.
Ye Liangcai jumped to the ground and quickly went over to open the door.
Why are you closing the door in broad daylight?
Sister Hu stepped into the room, her eyes darting around as she looked around.
Ye Liangcai smiled and said, "I'm tired from the journey and was just about to lie down and take a nap."
"Stop dozing off, the deputy chief镖头 (chief镖师) wants you to see the head of our bureau."
"Huh? Why do you want to see us?"
"It's all thanks to the deputy chief镖头 (bodyguard) and Young Master Pang praising your brother so much that the head of the General Bureau became very interested in you."
Sister Hu said smugly.
Ye Liangcai glanced outside the door.
"It's already this late, is our boss going to treat us brothers to a drink?"
Sister Hu rolled her eyes at him: "Dream on. The head of the General Administration must be so busy. He doesn't have time to invite you to drinks. Just seeing you is already a sign that he values us a lot."
Lin Feng then said, "There's no need for all three of us brothers to go. Lin Da alone can represent us."
Sister Hu glanced at Qiao Jushan, then at Lin Feng, and then turned to look at Ye Liangcai.
"Even now, I still can't tell which of you brothers is in charge."
Lin Feng and Ye Liangcai raised their hands together and pointed at Qiao Jushan.
"Of course it's my boss."
Sister Hu shook her head: "Lin Da is a real taciturn guy, he never says a word. Lin Er is quick on his feet and has a silver tongue, but he rarely makes decisions, so..."
Her gaze shifted to Lin Feng, and she grinned.
"You're the most cunning one. It seems like you're always the first to speak before the other two even move."
"You have a good eye."
Lin Feng shook his head and smiled.
He didn't deliberately hide this issue; they're all brothers, so it doesn't matter who's in charge, and he wouldn't let others suspect anything else.
Sister Hu smiled smugly, then looked at Lin Feng seriously.
"I have a question for you, answer honestly."
"That depends on the problem."
"Hmm, are the three of you brothers?"
Lin Feng scratched his head: "What do you think?"
"I think you're similar to Lin Er, except..."
She glanced at Qiao Jushan, who sat on the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), looking like a small mountain.
Lin Feng laughed and said, "Don't guess, we're closer than blood brothers, we've been through thick and thin together."
"That's right... Hey, let's hurry up and go, the boss is waiting."
Sister Hu finally remembered the important matter.
The head of the Kyoto branch of Hongsheng Escort Agency is named Pang Bohong, who is Pang Jisheng's brother. They look and have similar builds.
He only said a few words to Lin Feng and the other two briefly before waving them away.
However, tasks were assigned.
At 3:45 PM today, the three brothers went with them to the merchant's house to deliver the goods.
Plans can't keep up with changes, and Lin Feng couldn't find an excuse to get away from this situation, so he had to change his strategy and focus on keeping an eye on the goods first.
As soon as the hour of You (5-7 PM) arrived, Sister Hu came to call the three of them to set off.
Lin Feng noticed that all eight people from the Hongsheng Escort Agency in Jingnan Prefecture were still there, following behind him as they walked towards the gate.
Lin Feng also figured this out.
The Pang brothers attached great importance to this shipment, and the owner who entrusted the shipment to them probably also valued the delivery very much.
Therefore, all the escorts who came along had to be present when the goods were delivered; if any problems arose, no one could escape.
Of course, if there are no problems with the goods, their contribution will be significant, and the reward they receive will certainly be very generous.
A dozen or so people left the courtyard together and walked along the wide street.
After turning three corners, we arrived at a wider intersection.
A tall archway can be seen from afar, standing prominently in the middle of the street.
After walking another thirty or fifty feet, the group arrived at the archway.
Lin Feng frowned as he stared at the three large characters on the archway: Prime Minister's Residence.
I was a little lost in thought.
Wasn't Miao Changfeng the prime minister of the Taisho era?
Lin Feng thought to himself, "There are so many coincidences in this world. I've been wandering around for a long time, and I've bumped into an acquaintance here again."
However, he wasn't nervous. The Prime Minister was such a high-ranking official; how could he possibly let a mere镖头 (bodyguard) see him?
Even if Miao Changfeng walked right past him, he wouldn't even glance at him, the head镖师 (bodyguard/escort).
He only needed to be wary of Miao Changfeng's few guards and prevent them from discovering his whereabouts.
Miao Changfeng's deputy captain of the guards was killed by him, but there was still a captain of the guards, Miao Yong, who had dealt with him before and would definitely recognize him.
Moreover, many of Miao Changfeng's guards have seen his face before, so these guards are not easy to avoid.
They will definitely thoroughly investigate anyone entering the Prime Minister's residence and keep a close eye on everyone's movements.
Lin Feng was praying that everyone could pass the Prime Minister's residence and continue forward, finding another host family would be the best solution, and he would only have a false alarm.
But the more he muttered to himself, the less things went in the direction he expected.
Pang Bohong, the head of Hongsheng Escort Agency, was already standing in front of the Prime Minister's mansion's grand gate tower, refusing to move.
Lin Feng felt helpless; leaving now would certainly be unwise.
All of his plans depended on Hongsheng Escort Agency. If he left, all his previous efforts would probably be in vain.
He glanced at Ye Liangcai and Qiao Jushan, weighing the pros and cons in his mind.
If they can get away with it, that would be best. But once things are exposed, Miao Changfeng won't be able to keep the three of them.
Even with the high walls and thick walls of Kyoto, they could not confine the three of them.
Lin Feng followed the crowd into the Prime Minister's residence, making plans as he went.
Once your whereabouts are exposed, you can simply steal the water ghost's equipment and leave.
As for killing, he generally doesn't take the initiative.
The Prime Minister's residence was very large, which shows that Miao Changfeng was highly regarded by Zhao Zheng and the mansion bestowed upon him was very luxurious.
They continued forward until they reached the entrance of a tall hall, where they were stopped by seven or eight guards.
The next moment, only Pang Bohong, along with Pang Xiu and Shang Keshen, were allowed to continue forward, cross the high threshold, and enter the hall.
