Espionage: I can read memory information

Chapter 16 Confirming Identity

The next day, Baoshan Street.

Baoshan Street is located in the slums of Jinling, where the buildings are all low-rise houses.

There weren't many people on the street at that time.

Sun Mazi and Zhao Dali were standing in a small alley, with Du Yang beside them.

He still had some bruises on his face, and he kept his head down, not daring to look at Sun Mazi and the other man.

Today is the 10th, the day Li Tan and Du Yang will meet.

At that moment, a man in a black suit walked towards them, carrying a leather suitcase in his hand.

As he left, he looked around.

He soon arrived at his destination, but Du Yang was not the only one in the alley.

The man paused for a moment after seeing Sun Mazi next to Du Yang, then turned to leave.

As soon as he turned around, several burly men appeared in front of him, staring at him menacingly.

Looking at these people, Li Tan knew that his scheme had been exposed, so he resigned himself to his fate, turned around, and went inside.

Upon seeing this, Sun Mazi smiled and said, "You must be Dr. Li. It's truly a pleasure to meet you in person. I've heard so much about you."

Li Tan's expression was indifferent, his gaze fixed on Du Yang.

Du Yang felt a little guilty under Li Tan's gaze and quickly lowered his head.

"You can have everything later, but the price cannot be low, otherwise we will all perish and you will get nothing."

Li Tan said, clutching his suitcase tightly with both hands.

Upon hearing this, Sun Mazi laughed and said, "No wonder you're a doctor, your mind works so fast."

"I'll pay you the black market price. But from now on, you can only have things from me. If I find out you've sold them to someone else, I guarantee you won't live to see the next day."

"Okay," Li Tan agreed, "but I have one more condition."

Sun Mazi was furious upon hearing this. If Shen Yi hadn't told him not to touch Li Tan, he would have slapped him across the face long ago.

"Don't push your luck; you have no right to negotiate with me!"

"If you promise me, I'll give you the medicine for free this time!" Li Tan said.

"Oh?"

Sun Mazi looked at Li Tan with some curiosity, "Then tell me."

Li Tan pointed at Du Yang, "I want his life."

Upon hearing this, Du Yang abruptly raised his head. "Cousin...cousin, you're my own cousin! Please spare me, I'm willing to be your slave!"

However, Li Tan did not respond to him, but stared straight at Sun Mazi.

Sun Mazi laughed, "Hahaha, good!"

"Are you planning to do it yourself, or should I help you?"

Du Yang looked at Li Tan with eyes filled with fear. "Cousin, I really know I was wrong. Please forgive me, please forgive me!"

As he spoke, he knelt on the ground, then crawled toward Li Tan and grabbed his leg.

Sun Mazi winked at Zhao Dali, who immediately stepped forward and restrained Du Yang.

Seeing this, Li Tan took out a scalpel and slowly approached Du Yang.

"No...don't."

Du Yang stared at the scalpel in Li Tan's hand and shook his head frantically.

In the end, Li Tan's scalpel stopped at Du Yang's neck, but he didn't make the cut.

But Du Yang had already fainted from fright.

"You guys handle this for me, okay?"

As Li Tan put down his suitcase, he said, "The time and place for future transactions will remain the same."

After saying that, he didn't linger and turned to leave.

A short while later, Shen Yi emerged from an alley across the street.

He had witnessed everything that had just happened and had gained a basic understanding of Li Tan.

Intelligent and rational, but not ruthless enough.

If it were him, he definitely would have made that cut.

However, Li Tan is just an ordinary person, so it's already quite impressive that he could do this.

Shen Yi then walked up to Sun Mazi and picked up the suitcase from the ground.

"Young Master, what should we do with him?"

Sun Mazi pointed at Du Yang and said.

"This area is quite good, let's clean it up a bit," Shen Yi said.

He certainly couldn't spare Du Yang's life, and this area was a slum in Jinling, where the death of one person wouldn't even cause a ripple.

"yes!"

. . . . . .

Shen Yi put the suitcase in the car, but he didn't drive away immediately. Instead, he drove towards the nearby dock.

Knowing that the transaction would take place on Baoshan Street, he left some gifts in his car on the way, intending to visit Tang Long, the leader of the Anqing Gang.

The Anqing Gang is a local criminal gang in Nanjing that controls several docks in the city.

Many of Shen Jiuling's business goods were unloaded from the docks controlled by the Anqing Gang, so the two were quite familiar with each other, and Shen Yi naturally had to pay him a visit.

This is all about connections.

Before the car even reached the dock, Shen Yi stepped on the brakes and slowly reversed the car into the alleyway beside him.

Because he had just seen a familiar figure—Cuilan.

Shen Yi got out of the car and began to observe from the wall.

At this moment, Cuilan was standing not far from the dock talking to a man. Judging from the man's clothes, he should be a dock worker.

However, due to the distance, Shen Yi could not hear the conversation between the two.

A short while later, Cuilan said goodbye to the man and left, and Shen Yi then drove the car out again.

As he drove, he pondered Cuilan's purpose in coming here.

After the Black Crow Group incident, he felt that Cuilan should be a member of the Red Party.

However, there is no evidence yet to prove whether Song Yu is a member of the Communist Party. If Cui Lan is, then Song Yu is most likely a member of the Communist Party as well.

Song Yu's identity provided excellent cover for the Red Party.

That makes sense.

However, Shen Yi's current identity is very special, and the relationship between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party is extremely tense.

If he is suspected of being involved with anything related to the Communist Party, even Shen Jiuling would have difficulty protecting him.

However, if Song Yu and Cui Lan are both members of the Red Party, then from any perspective, he must do everything in his power to prevent them from being exposed.

Therefore, he needed to find out why Cuilan came here and whether it would expose her identity.

However, this kind of thing cannot be done openly.

He had already arrived at the dock and parked the car. The man had just walked over there as well.

Shen Yi got out of the car and smiled at the man, "Brother, I'd like to ask where Chief Tang Long is right now?"

As he spoke, he took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket, then handed one to the man.

The man initially wanted to shake his head and say he didn't know, but he stopped when he saw the Old Knife brand cigarettes that Shen Yi had taken out.

The man took the cigarette but didn't smoke it; instead, he held it to his ear.

He wouldn't be willing to smoke such good cigarettes right now.

He then pointed to a small house on the dock, "Chief Tang is right there."

Thanks.

Shen Yi smiled at the man, then took the gift from the car and walked over there.

A slight smile played on his lips, for he had just witnessed the man's memories.

The memory he saw this time was a fragment, which happened to be the scene of his conversation with Cuilan just now.

Although it was only a few words, Shen Yi had already confirmed Cui Lan's identity.

She is a member of the Red Party.
