Espionage: I Have Photo Editing Software
Chapter 19 A Ghost Knocking on the Door at Midnight
Late at night, at the Peerless Elegance Photo Studio.
Wei Renming suddenly opened his eyes, his chest heaving violently as he gasped for breath.
He had another nightmare.
In his dream, he was imprisoned and tortured again, with no one to turn to for help.
He raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, preparing to get out of bed for a drink of water, but the next second, his movements froze.
There was a person standing at the head of the bed.
Upon seeing the person's face clearly, he was so frightened that his heart skipped a beat.
"Miss Lin?" Wei Renming swallowed.
Lin Yi stared intently at Wei Renming with icy eyes, her innocent demeanor completely gone.
"You seem afraid of me?"
"This... waking up to find someone standing next to your bed would scare anyone."
Wei Renming suppressed his panic and braced himself to deal with the situation.
The woman standing in front of him was a ruthless Japanese spy!
He knew perfectly well that his current situation was even more dangerous than being in prison.
"But the bed you're sleeping in doesn't belong to you." Lin Yi pulled out a gun and fiddled with it in her hand.
Wei Renming almost cursed.
It seems like he can't answer this question correctly no matter how he tries.
"I advise you not to try to fool me with your tricks."
Lin Yi pointed her gun at Wei Renming and said coldly, "Answer whatever I ask you. If you dare to tell a single lie, I'll kill you!"
"Yes, yes. I promise to tell you everything I know, without holding back."
The fear of death caused Wei Renming to break out in a cold sweat.
Why did the Secret Service release you?
coming.
This is an extremely important issue.
If he doesn't answer well, he'll lose his life.
Wei Renming tried his best to keep his voice calm:
"I don't know. About ten days ago, one afternoon, they opened the cell door, said I was innocent, and released me. What about you, when were you released?"
"Bang!" Lin Yi's arm jerked.
Wei Renming instinctively covered his head, then realized that the voice was coming from Lin Yi's mouth.
"Damn it, that woman's insane!"
Lin Yi revealed a slightly manic smile, "If you really don't understand, why would they entrust this photo studio to you?"
"I find it strange too!" Wei Renming protested. "They know I'm a photographer, so they inexplicably put me in charge of the photo studio. All the studio's profits have to go to them, and I only get a salary."
"Impossible! Even if I'm exposed, it doesn't mean they'll think you're innocent." Lin Yi believed that her plan to frame someone was flawless.
"Exposed? What do you mean? Could it be that you..." Wei Renming's eyes widened, looking surprised.
"Hehehe..." Lin Yi let out a piercing laugh. "That's right, I'm a Japanese spy. Now my dad, my brother, and my uncle have all been captured by them, and I'm all alone... What's the point of me living?"
As she spoke, she glared at Wei Renming with a vicious look and said angrily:
"It's all your fault! Why didn't you admit it? If you had, we would all be safe. Hah, you deserve to die!"
Depend on!
I've run into a lunatic!
Wei Renming said timidly, "I...I confess! They tortured me to extract a confession, how could I withstand it?"
"You admit it?" Lin Yi's gaze sharpened.
Wei Renming said:
"Yes! With a branding iron and a knife, how could I possibly withstand it? I gave up long ago!"
"No, no! If you admit it, they have no reason not to release my uncle!"
Lin Yi slapped her forehead, revealing a look of sudden realization.
"I understand! You have a problem!"
Wei Renming was startled. "I'm just an ordinary person who suffered an undeserved misfortune. What problem could I possibly have?"
"No! You're from the Special Service! You came to the photo studio that noon not to take pictures, but to scout the place! That's why they saw through my plan to frame you so easily!" The anger in Lin Yi's eyes was almost tangible.
Wei Renming quickly took off his shirt, pointed to the scars on his body, and said, "If I were really in cahoots with them, why would they arrest me and lock me up in jail? Look at all these fresh scars on my body, they were all left in jail."
Lin Yi's eyes showed a thoughtful expression, which then turned ugly.
If Wei Renming wasn't a member of the Special Service, then there's only one explanation left—Zhang Mozhi couldn't withstand the torture, confessed, and also implicated her.
That's why the Secret Service conducted a surprise inspection of her home.
"Could it be that they think I haven't been in Shanghai long enough to have any connection with the Japanese?" Wei Renming asked.
"Too short a time?" Lin Yi's expression changed, and she pressed, "How long have you been here?"
"It's only been a little over three months since I came to Shanghai from my hometown of Funing..." Wei Renming said truthfully.
"What?!" Lin Yi gritted her teeth, her eyes flashing with malice. "How could you be dressed so respectably?"
She realized something was wrong.
She had planned everything meticulously, but she hadn't anticipated that Wei Renming had only just arrived in Shanghai.
This experience greatly reduced the likelihood that he was a Japanese spy.
Even if the Secret Service found evidence at the US-India photo studio, they would still have doubts, which is why they searched her house...
"Ha! Because of such a small oversight, I lost everything! Damn it! You really deserve to die!"
Lin Yi stared at Wei Renming with a terrifying look, as if she would shoot him dead at any moment.
"No, don't kill me! I'm useful to you!"
"What use are you?" Lin Yi questioned.
"I... I can make money. Spare my life, and I'll give you all the money I earn every month." Wei Renming really didn't want to die.
"Heh, what use would I have for money?" Lin Yi sneered. "You have one last chance to speak. If you can't provide any valuable information, you'll be buried with my uncle!"
Wei Renming knows absolutely nothing!
Could it be that I am destined to die?
Suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind.
"Zhang Shuzhi? Yes, Zhang Shuzhi!"
"I've got it!" Wei Renming said urgently.
"explain!"
"I heard them say the other day that your uncle will be taken to Nanjing for trial. Judging by the time, it should be tomorrow. You can rescue him on the way!"
To save his own life, Wei Renming had no choice but to reveal this information.
He had made up his mind. As soon as it was light, he would tell Chen Zhiqiang to set a trap and capture Lin Yi!
"Really?" Lin Yi calmed down.
"Really! They've wrecked me, I absolutely hate them! Why should I cover for them?" Wei Renming said firmly.
Lin Yi scrutinized Wei Renming, a smirk playing on her lips:
"I'm very curious, why would they tell you such important information?"
As she spoke, she pointed to the scars on Wei Renming's body and said:
"Also, which hospital treated your injuries?"
"I..." Wei Renming didn't know how to answer.
"And you still say you're not from the Special Service?" Lin Yi shouted.
With no other rebuttal, Wei Renming had no choice but to tell the truth.
"I am now Chen Zhiqiang's informant!"
"An informant?"
"Yes! They think my photography skills are good and I should be able to make a name for myself in Shanghai."
If I could become a top photographer, I would have access to high-ranking officials and dignitaries, and then I could gather important intelligence for them!
But I only reluctantly agreed because I was forced to!
I wish they were dead.
How could I genuinely help them?
