Chapter 772 Chen Kehai's Inauguration Ceremony

"Comrade Xiaolin, don't be angry, have some tea!" Li Lixing poured a cup of tea for Lin Hao, and then comforted him:

"You have to understand them. They are all working for the new government and are eager to achieve results. It is inevitable that their methods are a bit extreme!"

Lin Hao took a sip of tea, then said seriously:

"For the director's sake, I won't bother with them, but you shouldn't be too indulgent towards them. You still need to take care of them!"

Originally, Lin Hao didn't want to pay attention to Fang Li and his men, especially Chen Bin, who had a perverted hobby of interrogating prisoners.

The interrogation of the captured Red Party members became even more severe, and since Fang Li became the director of the Second Department, eight or nine people have been beaten to death.

This made it too late for Lin Hao to rescue them, so Lin Hao could only ask Li Lixing to warn them.

Li Lixing nodded and agreed: "Okay, I'll talk about them later!"

"Knock knock knock~!" At this time, there was a knock on the door outside.

"Come in!" said Li Lixing.

Fang Li brought Chen Kehai into the office. Seeing Lin Hao was there, he nodded and said, "Director Lin is here too!"

"Hey, Director Fang is here with the newcomers!" Then Lin Hao stood up and said:
"I just happened to have something to do at home, so I won't bother you any more!"

Fang Li changed his usual indifference and said enthusiastically:

"Director Lin, there's no need to avoid me. I came here to report to the director and to thank you for the clues you provided. Otherwise, we wouldn't have found Director Lai's son so quickly!"

Lin Hao glanced at Li Lixing, and Li Lixing gestured for him to sit down.

Fang Li smiled, then took out a box of tea, placed it in front of Li Lixing and said:
"Director, I know you like tea, so I specially prepared Pu'er for you!"

Li Lixing nodded and ignored him. Instead, he calmly took a sip of tea and then looked towards Fang Li.

Fang Li immediately introduced:
"Director, this is what I told you about. My brother Chen Kehai, who I grew up with, was able to find Secretary Lai's son thanks to Kehai!"

"Hello, Director Li!" Chen Kehai said calmly.

Li Lixing looked Chen Kehai up and down, wondering what he was thinking.

But he soon said to Fang Li: "You two have tried and killed another Red Party member. You know about this, right?"

Fang Li said with an embarrassed look:
"I'm really sorry, Director. I rescued Secretary Lai's son yesterday and reunited with my childhood friend. I drank a few more glasses. I was careless. I will give you a satisfactory explanation later!"

However, Li Lixing heard this and said coldly:

"Don't apologize to me. It's useless to say that. Director Lin always cleans up your mess and takes the blame. Director Lin came to me early this morning just for this matter!"

Li Lixing's intention to provoke was too obvious. Lin Hao knew this very well, so he immediately followed up:
"In fact, whether it's the interrogation of the Red Party or the Military Control Commission, it's normal to kill a few people. I don't think it matters!"

"I came to see the director today, not to complain or anything, but Director Fang's subordinates killed people without getting any intelligence. They do this every time, which makes me feel passive!"

"Sometimes I even have an illusion in my mind. I wonder if they are so eager to kill the Red Party for some other purpose!"

"After all, this is what the Red Party's anti-espionage team should do!" After saying that, Lin Hao calmly took a sip of tea.

Fang Li's classmate Chen Bin is indeed not a good guy. He works hard for his daily life and the pseudo-government, so Lin Hao deliberately puts pressure on him!

Sure enough, as soon as Lin Hao finished speaking, Li Lixing paused in drinking tea, then looked at Fang Li thoughtfully. Chen Kehai also looked at this childhood friend. It was obvious that this possibility was indeed not small.

If your comrade can't hold on and is about to betray you, you can just get rid of him and still keep a good reputation.

"It's not impossible!" everyone thought to themselves.

Li Lixing solemnly warned:

"Director Fang, you should be prepared for the worst. You really need to take this matter to heart!"

Fang Li immediately assured Li Lixing:
"Don't worry, Director. I will do a thorough self-examination when I return to prevent the Red Party from taking advantage of me!"

Then he said to Lin Hao: "I'm sorry, Director Lin, I will definitely teach them a lesson when I go back, and ask them to restrain themselves and try not to cause you any trouble!"

"Easy to say, easy to say!"

Seeing this, Li Lixing also laughed and said, "That's right, it's better to talk it out!"

As he said this, he finally had time to look at Chen Kehai. At this time, he became interested in the relationship between Fang Li and Chen Kehai.

So Li Lixing said with a fake smile: "Are you Chen Kehai?"

"Yes, Director Li!" Chen Kehai nodded in response.

Upon seeing this, Fang Li quickly introduced enthusiastically:

"Director, we were able to successfully rescue Director Lai's nephew yesterday thanks to the information provided by Ke Hai!"

"Hmm~! There should be more than that!" Li Lixing smiled and continued:
"I heard that you were in the casino yesterday. If it weren't for Brother Chen's help, you wouldn't have gotten away with it so easily!"

"Haha, Director Li is still wise and powerful. You are very observant and nothing can be hidden from you!"

After flattering him for a while, he found that Li Lixing was drinking tea leisurely and did not mention the matter of recruiting Chen Kehai, so he took the initiative to say:

"Director Li, Ke Hai~!"

"Brother Chen!" Before Fang Li could finish his words, he ignored Fang Li's words and went around Fang Li and said directly to Chen Kehai:

"I just said, I wonder if you are interested in joining our Agent 76 headquarters and serving the new government?"

"We at No. 76 need young people like you who are full of vigor and vitality!"

Chen Kehai and Fang Li looked at each other and realized something was wrong. Besides, it was their first time at No. 76 and they couldn’t just agree to someone’s request. That would be too obvious!
So Chen Kehai said indifferently: "Not interested, thank you Director Li!"

After saying this, he glanced at Fang Li, then turned and left the office.

Fang Li was anxious when he saw this, and quickly said to Li Lixing: "Director, please wait a moment!"

As he said that, he went after Chen Kehai, trying to persuade him to come back.

Li Lixing raised his eyebrows, thinking that because of their deep brotherly love, Chen Kehai would agree to join No. 76.

After all, I have never seen Fang Li so enthusiastic towards anyone before, and he even brought people with him.

That's why he thought of bypassing Fang Li and recruiting Chen Kehai alone, and he also wanted to sow discord between them.

But I didn’t expect that Chen Kehai refused without even thinking about it. That’s interesting.

Instead, Li Lixing became more interested in the relationship between Fang Li and Chen Kehai!

Seeing this scene, Lin Hao smiled and said, "Youth is full of vigor!"

Hearing this, Li Lixing also smiled and said, "Who hasn't been young before? Isn't it the same for everyone?"

Looking at the two people talking outside, Lin Hao said to Li Lixing with a smile: "Looking at the situation, I will definitely persuade you to come back!" Li Lixing looked outside when he heard that, and faintly heard the sound of two people talking.

"Are you crazy? Who are you giving the cold shoulder to?" Fang Li pulled Chen Kehai and said angrily in a low voice.

"Is this the new job you found for me?" Chen Kehai said disdainfully.

Fang Li was speechless, and patiently advised: "Ke Hai, I know you don't want to join No. 76, but~!"

Before Fang Li could finish his words, Chen Kehai interrupted him with a wave of his hand:
"I am used to the ways of the world now, and my heart is at ease everywhere. If I cared about your current status, I would not have saved you in the casino."

Then Chen Kehai sighed and said, "It's just that I'm bound by the rules and I don't live freely. Let's just forget it!"

Fang Li quickly pulled Fang Li who wanted to leave, and then whispered:

"You saw how they made things difficult for me the moment I came in!"

"I have suffered so much injustice in No. 76 in the past two years. I don't have any capable subordinates. You just heard how many Red Party members Chen Bin has killed. He is so stupid that even the director suspects him!"

"I'm really in a mess now. I really need your help. Times have changed, and we are brothers after all!"

Then he looked at Chen Kehai intently, his eyes full of expectation. Seeing this, Chen Kehai sighed, which was considered as his agreement.

Lin Hao, who had just finished watching the show, stood up and said, "Director, I'll go back first if I have nothing else to do!"

"Oh, right!" As Lin Hao stood up, Li Lixing seemed to have thought of something and stopped Lin Hao and reminded him:
"The day after tomorrow is the day when Mayor Ma will take office. I have something to do and can't go. Don't forget to attend!"

"If you're not going, it wouldn't be appropriate for us to go!" Lin Hao simply sat back and whispered:

"Director, this newly appointed Mayor Ma, could it be that he is not in the same group with us?"

Li Lixing said calmly: "What do you mean by different groups? We are all working for the new government!"

"I understand!" Lin Hao said with a smile.

After Lin Hao left, Fang Li took Chen Kehai to Li Lixing and said with a little embarrassment:

"Director Li, a small incident. We didn't communicate well before. He told me a long time ago that he really wanted to join our No. 76!"

Li Lixing said with a smile on his face:

"Recruiting talents is a top priority for us. We do not force or coerce them. We only follow the principle of voluntariness."

Then he looked at Chen Kehai and said:
"Although this is the first time I've met Brother Chen, I feel like I'm particularly compatible with you, and you were brought here by Brother Fang, so let's do this for now, you should follow Fang Li in the Second Division, okay!"

Fang Li quickly said: "Thank you Director Li for your help!"

Chen Kehai glanced at Fang Li, then said to Li Lixing: "Thank you, Director Li!"

"Okay, then you take Ke Hai to familiarize yourself with it first!"

"Okay, thank you Director Li!" Fang Li said and prepared to take Chen Kehai away.

At this time, Li Lixing reminded again: "Also, you all have to attend Mayor Ma's inauguration banquet!"

"Ok!"

Fang Li and Chen Kehai then left the office. On the way, Chen Kehai asked curiously:

"Fang Li, did Director Lin have a problem with you just now?"

Thinking of the news from Luo Bing last night, Fang Li shook his head and said:

"I can't say we are hostile. The one who is against me is Xing Hanzhu from the First Division. Director Lin is a centrist and will not help either of us!"

Then he hooked Chen Kehai's neck and pulled him towards the interrogation room, saying:
"Okay, I'll sort out the twists and turns in No. 76 later. The key now is to boost your performance and get promoted as soon as possible!"

Then the two of them came to the interrogation room. Looking at the dead Red Party members hanging in the air, Fang Li's face became gloomy.

"Director Fang!" someone in the interrogation room shouted.

"That guy is still alive, right?" Fang Li pointed at the Red Party member on the electric chair and asked, "Did the interrogation reveal anything?"

"Oh, he's not dead!" Then the subordinate continued, "He didn't sleep all night and still didn't say anything!"

"Iron teeth and copper jaws!" Fang Li said with narrowed eyes.

When Chen Kehai saw interrogation room No. 76 for the first time, he was shocked by the countless torture instruments.

Especially the comrade on the electric chair, his face was calm, but his heart was filled with anxiety.

At this time, Chen Bin came hurriedly, glanced at Chen Kehai, and then came to Fang Li. Knowing that he had judged someone to death again, he explained:
"He was yesterday~!"

"Pa~!" Fang Li slapped Chen Bin in the face with his backhand, and then shouted loudly: "Call Director Fang!"

"Yes, Director Fang!" Chen Bin replied with his head down.

Fang Li pointed at the dead Red Party member and yelled at Chen Bin:
"How many times have I told you to be gentle, be gentle when you do it? How can we try you if you kill him?"

Chen Bin quickly explained: "I really didn't expect that he would be so vulnerable to being beaten!"

Fang Li slapped Chen Bin in the face again:

"How dare you say that? One or two is fine, but in just three months, how many Reds have you killed? Ah!"

Chen Bin lowered his head and dared not speak, as if he was ready to be beaten and scolded by Fang Li.

"I originally thought that you were a medical student and knew how to deal with it, but how did you do it?"

"Do you know that some people say that you are part of the Red Party's anti-traitor team, specializing in eliminating those Red Party members who are about to surrender!"

Chen Bin's face changed drastically when he heard this, and he quickly explained: "Director Fang, I'm not~!"

However, Fang Li reached out to stop Chen Bin, and then continued:

"I know you're not a member of the Red Party, and I don't care what you think. If you kill someone during the interrogation next time, I will treat you as a member of the Red Party's anti-traitor team!"

Having said that, he no longer paid attention to Chen Bin, picked up the fire tongs, blew on the red-hot Luo Tie, and then stuck it directly on the dead Red Party member.

Then the interrogation room was filled with the smell of burning human flesh. At this time, Fang Li picked up the branding iron and said to the last Red Party member:
"You saw it clearly, didn't you? You saw the whole process of this man's death. If you have a chance to get out, report the details of how he died to your superiors!"

Finally, Fang Li came up to him and asked in a deep voice: "I'll ask you one last time, will you tell me, or won't you tell me?"

Although there was fear in the eyes of this Red Party member, he finally calmed down, looked directly into Fang Li's murderous gaze, but gritted his teeth and said nothing.

Fang Li sighed upon seeing this. He hated people like the Red Party the most. They were stubborn and unyielding!
"Okay, I understand!" Fang Li took out his pistol and loaded it while saying, "The best way to do good deeds is to help others achieve their goals!"

Fang Li handed the gun to Chen Kehai and said, "Since he won't talk, why don't you give him a ride!"
