Feng Zhitai wasn't angry when Shen Yi refused. Instead, he smiled and said, "There's no need to be in such a hurry to refuse. I'm going back to Beiping in a couple of days. You can give me your answer then."
Without waiting for Shen Yi to say anything more, he went straight upstairs.
Seeing Feng Zhitai leave, Ji Feng smiled and patted Shen Yi on the shoulder, saying, "There aren't many people who can be personally invited by the division commander. Team Leader Shen, you must seize this opportunity."
Shen Yi smiled helplessly, chatted with Ji Feng for a while, and then prepared to leave.
Before leaving, he found Fu Cong and said, "I'll have to trouble Team Leader Fu to continue protecting Commander Feng's safety here."
"Team Leader Shen, you're too kind. It's my duty," Fu Cong said.
He then continued, "Please rest assured, Team Leader Shen, I will not tell anyone else in the department about what just happened."
He really didn't want to offend Shen Yi anymore. Last time, he was assigned the most dangerous job by Shen Yi because he reported on someone, which resulted in the deaths of several brothers in the second group.
Now that Shen Yi has made a great contribution, his status in the Action Section will definitely rise. If I offend him again, it will be difficult for me to get along in the Action Section in the future.
Shen Yi was somewhat helpless upon hearing this. It seemed that Fu Cong also found the position of regimental commander very tempting, and he probably would have agreed if it were him.
"Thank you, Team Leader Fu, but what I just said is the truth. I still think it's better to stay in the Special Service Department."
He cupped his hands in a respectful gesture and then left.
Two days later.
The interrogations of all the rats are almost over, and in the past two days, Zhao Lijun has been leading the Special Service to search houses everywhere.
And of course, the money was divided among everyone.
Zhao Lijun generously shared some with the intelligence department and personally delivered it to Zhang Yuan.
However, there were only a few of them; most of them were used to show off to the intelligence department.
Enraged, Zhang Yuan swept everything off the table after Zhao Lijun left. Shen Yi happened to be passing by at that time and heard the commotion in the office, thinking to himself that Zhao Lijun was truly cunning.
Shen Yi also benefited greatly from this; it could be said that he was the one who received the most benefits besides Zhao Lijun.
The others didn't complain much. Most people believed in the principle of "more work, more pay," and besides, if it weren't for Shen Yi, how could they have earned so much?
However, Shen Yi also took out some and distributed it to his men, telling them to relax when they had nothing to do and go out for a good meal.
. . . . . .
The investigation has been quite tiring during this period.
Of course, in addition to money, some of the antiques and other valuables in the officials' homes were also confiscated.
Lin Jiang had already taken the list and handed it to Shen Yi.
"Brother Shen, look at these things—"
Shen Yi's eyelids twitched as he looked at the items on the list.
These KMT officials are so rich! They're living a really comfortable life.
"Brother Lin, I understand. I'll go see the section chief when I get back," Shen Yi said with a smile.
Seeing this, Lin Jiang laughed, then sighed and said, "Brother Shen, I really have no way to deal with Nanzao Yunzi. She won't say anything."
"I've already used all the medicine you gave me last time. Do you see any other options?"
Shen Yi frowned upon hearing this. Nanzo Yunzi must still have a lot of things in her possession, but there was nothing he could do if he couldn't get them out through interrogation.
He's been checking on her from time to time these past few days, but he hasn't gotten any useful information from her.
"Let's report to the section chief when we get back and see how he handles it," Shen Yi said.
Lin Jiang nodded; that was the only option now.
He then moved closer to Shen Yi and whispered, "Brother Shen, you're close to the section chief, have you heard how the higher-ups are planning to reward you this time?"
Shen Yi laughed upon hearing this. Lin Jiang wasn't asking how he would be rewarded, but rather what kind of reward he, Lin Jiang, would receive this time.
Shen Yi is the deputy leader of Group One. The next step up is the leader position, but the Action Section does not have the resources to expand.
An action team needs about two hundred people. Where would the Special Service find so many people to allocate during this time? Other agencies are also short-staffed.
But only one deputy section chief is needed, and the position is currently vacant.
Shen Yi knew about the competition among the three group leaders for the position of deputy section chief ever since he arrived at the Special Service Department.
"Brother Lin, this section chief really didn't mention this to me," Shen Yi said with a smile.
"However, judging from the merits of the three action team leaders, Brother Lin, you are definitely the best candidate for deputy section chief."
Lin Jiang felt a little empty inside after hearing Shen Yi's first sentence, but the subsequent turn of events excited him.
That's right, he has made the most contributions among the three team leaders, so he has the best chance!
"Then I'll take your kind words, Brother Shen," Lin Jiang said with a smile.
"Brother Lin, don't forget your younger brother when you get promoted to deputy section chief!"
"Haha, how could that be? I could forget anyone but you, Brother Shen!"
The two chatted about the future for a while before Lin Jiang left.
Shen Yi glanced at his watch. Today was the day Feng Zhitai was leaving, and he had promised to see him off.
So he got up and left the office.
Just as I stepped out of the office, I saw Pan Qiwu walking this way. After seeing me, he quickly jogged over.
"Team Leader Shen, the section chief is waiting for you downstairs."
Shen Yi was puzzled upon hearing this, and followed Pan Qiwu downstairs.
When he arrived in the courtyard, he saw Dai Chunfeng sitting in the car, so he quickly ran over to him.
"Senior!"
"Okay, come on up."
"yes!"
Shen Yi opened the car door and sat in the back seat, while Pan Qiwu sat in the driver's seat and slowly started the car.
"Today is the day Commander Feng leaves Beijing. Come with me to see him off," Dai Chunfeng said.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yi immediately realized that Dai Chunfeng probably already knew about Feng Zhitai's recruitment of him.
It probably wasn't Fu Cong who said it; he wouldn't have agreed to it and then gone back on his word. It was probably someone else.
"Chief, Commander Feng sent his men to see him off a couple of days ago, and he also said he wanted his men to go back to Beiping with him and make me a regimental commander."
"Oh? Commander? Feng Zhitai is really willing to spend money." Dai Chunfeng laughed.
Although he was smiling, Shen Yi knew that Dai Chunfeng must be very angry.
They even poached people from his secret service; how could he not be angry?
Upon seeing this, Shen Yi immediately said passionately, "Chief! I never intended to agree to Commander Feng's request, so I did not report this matter to you. Please punish me, Chief."
"From the day I joined the Special Service, I never considered going anywhere else. I was born a member of the Special Service, and I will die a member of the Special Service!"
Dai Chunfeng was very satisfied to hear this. Although the person who reported it said that Shen Yi refused on the spot, he was still a little worried.
After all, he was a regimental commander.
That's why he said that on purpose just now.
"Haha, Wenyuan, there's no need for that. Even if you agree, I won't punish you," Dai Chunfeng said.
Upon hearing this, Shen Yi continued, "Uncle, even if he makes me the deputy division commander, I won't agree. Going to Beiping is not as comfortable as staying in Jinling with you. Besides, you know I've been pampered since I was a child, and I definitely won't be able to stand it in Beiping."
"Haha, you're such a chatterbox," Dai Chunfeng laughed.
Seeing this, Shen Yi knew that he had dispelled Dai Chunfeng's suspicions, so he offered a few more compliments before finally bringing up the matter of Nanzo Yunzi.
Dai Chunfeng frowned upon hearing this. "Hmph, Nanzo Yunzi has only been back for a few days, and my office phone has been ringing off the hook. Everyone wants her dead!"
Shen Yi understood immediately. Too many high-ranking officials frequented the Tangshan Sanatorium, and each of them might have had contact with Nanzo Yunzi, but how could they all be arrested?
Without evidence, even Principal Jiang cannot take action.
Those who called Dai Chunfeng might genuinely be connected to Nanzo Yunzi, or they might do so because of other people, or they might be afraid of being falsely accused by Nanzo Yunzi, so it's impossible for them to just arrest someone randomly.
Dai Chunfeng has been somewhat troubled by this for the past few days, and said, "Let's interrogate them for another two days while the principal hasn't given any instructions yet."
"yes!"
