Spy Wars: I can get rewards by being a bully!

Chapter 709 Death of Wu Yushuai

By the end of June, it seemed as if summer had officially arrived. In order to avoid the scorching heat, many people had to get up early and work so that they could have a short rest at noon.

There are more roads on the street.

Compared with winter, these poor people suffered from heatstroke because the weather was too hot. If a kind-hearted person found them, took them to a cool and shady place, scraped their skin, and gave them some water, they might still be able to survive. But if they were left lying there for an hour or two, even a god would not be able to save them.

Lin Ze had no choice but to issue orders to all the joint defense teams, requiring them to do their best to treat any personnel they found fallen on the road during patrol. All related expenses incurred during treatment would be borne by the person being treated, and it didn't matter if they couldn't pay back the money, as they would be sent directly to the construction site to work.

In the future, this would be an asshole act that would make the entire Internet indignant.

But now, this is the Bodhisattva who saves people from suffering!

As a result, an unexpected phenomenon occurred: people often deliberately walked to the side of the joint defense team or the door of the patrol room, and then fell to the ground with a cry. After others were busy for a long time, they "woke up slowly" and asked sincerely: "Can I go to work now?"

This made Lin Ze smile bitterly, and he could only add another clause: Anyone who is in good health but deliberately disrupts order will be expelled after being struck ten times with the stick.

Early in the morning, the kitchen of Lin Mansion prepared the cold noodles.

When the weather gets hot, I don’t feel like eating even if I stay in an air-conditioned room. Although Uncle Lin has a good appetite, he will feel uncomfortable if he eats too much at noon.

Then you can only eat more in the morning to maintain your strength.

A white porcelain bowl as big as a washbasin was filled with noodles, and there were all kinds of toppings on the table.

There are diced mushrooms and meat, braised eggplant, tomato and egg, stir-fried meat with garlic sprouts, and stir-fried meat with chili peppers. In short, anything that can be associated with noodles will be prepared in the kitchen without any hesitation.

Lin Ze is an avid noodle lover. He scoops up a small bowl of noodles every time, with different toppings. This time he really enjoys it.

There are two types that he particularly likes. One is made by mashing green peppers and fresh garlic, adding vinegar and salt, stirring evenly, pouring it on the noodles, and then adding two drops of sesame oil.

The combination of the aroma of wheat, aged vinegar, chili pepper and garlic, coupled with the chewy and smooth texture, is simply amazing.

Another way to cook it is to mash garlic and boiled eggs together, which is also a delicious dish.

As for whether eating garlic will have a smell, Mr. Lin doesn’t care about that. Anyway, no one dares to say it.

While they were eating, Niu Saner came over with documents to report.

"There was nothing unusual in Tianjin yesterday. You asked us to focus on whether there were any unusual people entering the stations and checkpoints. We have increased our efforts to check and have not found any suspicious people for the time being."

Lin Ze judged that since the accountant of the fruit shop was not the real Abacus, but they still said that they could get intelligence from the Military Control Commission, then either the real Abacus was in the south and was contacting through telegrams or other means, or the Abacus would send someone or even come in person.

"In Jinling, Wang Jingwei appointed......"

"For the mountain city..."

"In the red zone..."

After telling the domestic intelligence, Master Lin just ate three bowls.

"De Gaulle speaks in London, vows to continue resistance."

"The art students made a public inspection of Paris yesterday, and the newspapers said they were warmly received."

I was eating and reading when suddenly the phone rang.

Lin Ze was enjoying his meal and motioned Niu Saner to take it.

Niu Saner picked up the phone, hummed a few times, turned around and said sadly: "Sir, Wu Yushuai has passed away."

Lin Ze was shocked. Is the person still dead?

"What exactly happened?"

"He injured his teeth while eating. After being treated by a Japanese doctor, he died early this morning. The Japanese said it was caused by sepsis."

Lin Ze slapped the table.

Damn it, even though it’s a year later than the original timeline, it’s still the same reason!

We didn’t know before whether it was the Japanese who did it, but now we can be sure of it!

Wu Yushuai’s death caused a sensation in North China and even the whole of China.

Even the front-line headquarters sent people to express condolences hypocritically. There were even rumors that even the old Japanese devil Okamura would go to pay his respects in person.

Wang Jingwei personally sent a telegram of condolence to Nanjing: "I was shocked to learn that General Wu passed away before fulfilling his long-cherished wish of saving the country through peace. I mourn deeply and hereby express my condolences."

Not to be outdone, the Yamashiro side held a memorial service.

Lin Ze felt uncomfortable. If viewed from different standpoints, Wu Yushuai certainly had many flaws. Some said he was warmongering, others said he suppressed workers. But if viewed from the perspective of national integrity, Wu Yushuai was trapped in Peiping and Tianjin and could not go south. While a number of Beiyang veterans became traitors, he, who had the highest status and the most experience, always adhered to the righteousness and even used the opportunity of a press conference to embarrass the Japanese.

Some people also advised him to go to the concession, but he was unwilling to go even to the concession because the concession was also a place of shame!

Now that he is dead, various forces are showing off, all trying to prove that they are the so-called "orthodox". But how many of them truly respect and mourn him?

Especially the mountain city, they probably breathed a sigh of relief.

At the beginning, Boss Dai wanted to send someone to kill Wu Yushuai in advance to prevent future troubles.

Since all the celebrities from Tianjin and Beijing went to pay their respects, it was not surprising that Lin Ze went there.

The next day, Lin Ze set off for Peking. That day was the day of Wu Yushuai's funeral, but he was troubled about buying a coffin.

There is a woodworking factory in Peking called Wan Yixiang. This factory specializes in making coffins.

They have good craftsmanship and high-quality wood, and are the first choice of wealthy families in Peking.

Wan Yixiang has a treasure in his store, a large coffin made of old golden nanmu wood. There is only this one in the whole of Beiping and even in North China. Not to mention the craftsmanship, the wood itself is impossible to find anymore.

The eldest son of the Wu family wanted to use this coffin to bury his father, but when he asked the price, it turned out to be ten thousand dollars.

Ten thousand dollars is neither too much nor too little, but it is really difficult for the Wu family to take it out all at once. After all, a grand funeral costs a lot, and there are still many things to do later.

The old men who came to help were very concerned about other things, but no one was willing to help with this matter.

Everyone has selfish desires, and many people are eyeing this coffin. Who doesn't want to have the best coffin after a hundred years?

The eldest son of the Wu family looked very sad and had no choice but to choose another coffin.

At this time, Lin Ze touched Gao Shengping next to him.

Lao Gao understood what he meant and stepped out from the crowd, "Uncle Wu, everyone, although I am a junior, I respect Master Yu Shuai. I never had the opportunity to ask for his advice in the past, but now I have an unwelcome request, and I hope Uncle Wu will agree to it."

Wu Daoshi looked at Gao Shengping and said, "Director, please speak."

"I want to buy this coffin to bury the Jade Marshal, but this is a big deal, so I need your approval."

Wu Daoshi was so grateful that tears came down, and he cried, "Director, my Wu family is grateful!"

When the owner of the woodworking factory saw this, he quickly came out and said, "Marshal Yu is worthy of the name, and Director General Yi is righteous. Our woodworking factory is willing to sell it at cost price, and only charges 7,500 yuan!"

For businessmen, Marshal Yu is very famous, but that is of no use. He is just a general who has resigned, and he is dead.

But Gao Shengping is different, he is the chief of the Beijing Police Department, we need to curry favor with him!
