Love in the Courtyard: Starting with Engineers

Chapter 24: The Japanese Spy is Caught

Soon, several dishes were placed on the table: fried peanuts, scrambled eggs, fried pork cracklings, a large bowl of cabbage soup, and several steamed buns made from a mixture of wheat and pork.

Looking at the dishes, Li Yu said to Zhang Yulan, "What a lavish meal today!"

Li Jianshe, who had just put down his chopsticks, pursed his lips and said, "Yeah, it's all thanks to you! Otherwise, where would we get to eat so well?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yulan retorted unhappily, "I feed you three meals a day, and you're still complaining? If you keep complaining, go cook for yourself tomorrow!"

Li Jianshe quickly clasped his hands in a gesture of respect and said, "Oh, that's not what I meant at all! I was just joking with Xiaoyu!"

Li Yu found it quite amusing to watch Li Jianshe and Zhang Yulan bickering. Seeing Li Yu grinning, Li Jianshe quickly said, "You little rascal, secretly laughing to yourself!"

The meal ended with Li Jianshe and Zhang Yulan showering Li Yu with concern and constant reminders. After finishing their meal, Li Yu, Li Jianshe, and Zhang Yulan sat for a while before preparing to return to their dormitory at the steel rolling mill.

Seeing that Li Yu insisted on leaving, Li Jianshe and his wife didn't try to stop him too much, since they figured they'd have plenty of time later.

As Li Yu pushed his bicycle out of Li Jianshe's house, he sensed several people watching him, the same group that had followed him when he left the steel mill. [Ding! 200 malicious emotion points collected from Oda Saburo, 200 from Meichuan Kuzi, 200 from Meichuan Yifu, and 200 from Meiyou Bangzi]

Upon seeing four Japanese spies, Li Yu decided to test them out first.

Li Yu, accompanied by four Japanese spies, wandered around Beijing. When they came to a sparsely populated alley, Li Yu slipped in and pushed his bicycle inside.

About twenty meters behind, four figures followed at a distance.

"The target has turned into the alley," one of them said in a low voice in Japanese.

"Great opportunity, rush in and capture them alive."

"This person is a technical talent that the higher-ups need; we absolutely cannot allow him to be shot," Saburo Oda said to the others in a low voice.

Li Yu walked deeper into the alley and saw a mottled blue brick wall blocking his way. He stopped and picked up a piece of wood from the corner of the wall.

Li Yu weighed it in his hand and found it quite easy to handle. At that moment, four people quickly approached and surrounded him in a semi-circle.

Li Yu looked at Oda Saburo standing in the middle with a broad smile and said, "Long time no see, Deputy Section Chief Wang!"

"Hello, Engineer Li. I think we should get to know each other again. I am Saburo Oda, belonging to the Third Section of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Imperial Japanese Empire."

"I think we should be friends, not enemies, don't you think? Li-san," Oda Saburo said to Li Yu with a smile.

Li Yu weighed the wooden stick in his hand and pointed it at Oda Saburo, saying, "You little devils, you really haven't given up your evil intentions. It seems you haven't been hurt enough. Today, my uncle will collect some interest on behalf of our predecessors."

"I'll go to you Japanese people myself when I have the chance, and get it back with interest!"

After saying that, Li Yu's eyes sharpened, and the wooden stick in his hand flew out of his hand and flew towards Oda Saburo's face, who was standing directly opposite him.

Seeing the wooden stick growing larger and larger in his pupils, Oda Saburo felt a gust of wind rush towards him and was then smashed to the ground, unable to react.

Immediately afterward, Li Yu flashed in front of the other three people, took half a step forward with his left foot, and used a powerful Iron Mountain Lean to knock one of them away. The guy who was knocked away was slammed into the wall and then bounced back to the ground.

At the same time, Li Yu dodged two daggers by sidestepping, grabbed the two men's hands with one hand and twisted them. With a "crack" sound, the two men fell forward in pain. At this moment, Li Yu used both elbows to knock the two men flying backward.

From the moment Li Yu made his move until the four people fell to the ground, only a few seconds passed. Li Yu then picked up the fallen bicycle.

Then they tied each of the four unconscious people up with strips of cloth torn from their own clothes.

Thinking about it, Li Yu decided to pull out the poisonous fangs they had hidden in their mouths. Since he wasn't sure which ones were poisonous, he simply pulled them all out.

After finishing his work, Li Yu clapped his hands and planned to wake up Oda Saburo and ask him if it was related to the death of the original owner's parents.

A few minutes later, Oda Saburo finally woke up using Li Yu's "special" method. As soon as he opened his eyes, before he could even look at the person squatting in front of him, he smelled a pungent, fishy odor that rushed into his nostrils.

Seeing that Oda Saburo, whose face was covered in urine, had woken up, Li Yu quickly stuffed a red bean bun into Oda Saburo's blood-filled mouth.

Fortunately, the honest red bean bun melts in his mouth, otherwise I don't know how I would have fed it to him.

"What is your purpose in coming to the steel mill? What is your purpose in following me today? Do you have any other accomplices? And is my parents' accident related to you?" Li Yu asked. Although his voice was not loud, it sounded like thunder to Oda Saburo.

He was about to make up a story when he unexpectedly blurted out the whole situation.

According to Saburo Oda's confession, his purpose in coming to the steel mill was to sabotage the development of China's heavy industry and slow down China's industrialization process. He was following Li Yu with the intention of taking Li Yu and his technology back to Japan.

All he knew about in Beijing was the three people he had brought with him that day; he couldn't contact his superiors.

He orchestrated the deaths of Li Yu's parents because they witnessed him bribing Sun Zhiduan, the head of the security department.

Suddenly, it became noisy outside. It turned out that some nearby residents heard fighting sounds coming from the alley and went to the police station to report it.

A group of armed police officers approached the group. The leader, a middle-aged man with a stern face and broad eyes, looked at Li Yu and shouted, "Hands on your head, squat down and don't move!"

Li Yu paused for a moment, then quickly explained, "These people are all Japanese spies." The middle-aged policeman immediately asked seriously, "Are you sure these are all Japanese spies?"

Seeing that they didn't believe him, Li Yu handed over the information he had just recorded. The policeman glanced at it and put it away without intending to return it to Li Yu.

Immediately afterwards, several police officers brought Li Yu to the police station. Just as they were entering the station, Li Yu suddenly went over and slapped each of the Japanese spies, actually feeding them red bean buns.

After beating Li Yu, tears streaming down his face, he said, "Father! Mother! I've finally avenged you!" The middle-aged policeman patted Li Yu on the shoulder and led several Japanese spies towards the interrogation room.

The other police officers were surprised to find that this young man, who could subdue four Japanese spies with his bare hands, was also a sentimental person who could cry at the drop of a hat.

During the interrogation by the middle-aged police officer, it was surprising to find that these people were unusually cooperative, answering all questions and even providing detailed information about their families in Tokyo.

"This is too strange." Zhao Tiezhu, a middle-aged policeman and the director of Hongxing Police Station, walked out of the interrogation room and looked at the transcript in his hand. He simply couldn't believe that this was actually a Japanese spy.

At the same time, Zhao Tiezhu couldn't help but marvel at Li Yu's ruthlessness, as he actually pulled out all of Li Yu's teeth.
