371: Chapter 371 Contents of the Letter

"Mayor Zuo, if I told you there were no personal conflicts involved, I doubt you'd agree. But you don't need to bring this up again, because Gong Kaiming has already been arrested by me," Niu Xingwang said.

"What? This... Mayor Gong is a government official. What you've done doesn't follow the rules," Left Wen Shan said, surprised.

"Whether it follows the rules or not is not for you to say, do you understand what I mean?" Niu Xingwang stared straight at him.

This was his warning to Left Wen Shan: don't meddle in affairs you shouldn't. Whether it followed the rules or not had nothing to do with his Suiyang Anbu.

"Understood, understood!" Left Wen Shan dared not utter a sound.

"Mayor Zuo, when Gong Kaiming came to see you, besides asking you to find him a place, was there anything else?" Niu Xingwang asked.

"This..." Left Wen Shan hesitated slightly.

Niu Xingwang noticed this slight hesitation.

"Mayor Zuo, you must understand, paper cannot wrap fire. Even if you don't say it now, I believe it will eventually come out, and then the situation will be much more awkward than it is now," Niu Xingwang threatened.

He knew that Left Wen Shan would most likely not dare to gamble.

Within the foreseeable future, he couldn't leave the Huatong Chamber of Commerce, but there was also the risk of the secret being exposed.

Niu Xingwang was actually just bluffing; he didn't know if Gong Kaiming had said anything else.

Left Wen Shan also knew that he could choose not to speak about this matter, and there would be no problem in the short term. However, Gong Kaiming had asked him to hand over that letter, and there was no telling whether the Military Political Department would keep his secret. Once the matter of that letter came out, it was highly likely that Left Wen Shan would follow in Gong Kaiming's footsteps.

"Yes! He also gave me a letter. And he told me that if something happened to him, I should hand it over to the Military Political Department on his behalf," Left Wen Shan finally chose to reveal the matter.

"Oh? Where is the letter?" Niu Xingwang grew interested.

He really wanted to know what message Gong Kaiming could bring to the Military Political Department.

"I'll get it for you." Left Wen Shan immediately walked towards the office desk.

He pulled open a drawer, took a letter from a document bag, and then handed it to Niu Xingwang.

Niu Xingwang looked at the envelope; it was sealed and showed no signs of having been opened.

He glanced at Left Wen Shan, then decisively tore open the envelope, took out the letter, and began to read it.

"Hiss~"

Niu Xingwang was drenched in sweat after reading the letter.

Left Wen Shan deliberately stood far away, indicating that he had no desire to know what was written inside.

This letter was addressed to Liu Feiying and mentioned several key points:

1. The Huatong Chamber of Commerce had mastered the method of manufacturing Antigen Serum a long time ago and had injected all mercenaries of the Mercenary Guild.

Niu Xingwang had told him this; at the time, he needed to rely on this to gain a foothold in Meilin. He had also been confident that Gong Kaiming wouldn't be foolish enough to make this secret public.

2. Behind the Huatong Chamber of Commerce was a mysterious organization. According to his investigation, this mysterious organization was in Binjiang, and its location was in Binjiang Park in the West City Development Zone.

Logically, Gong Kaiming shouldn't have known this, which greatly shocked Niu Xingwang.

3. The leader of this mysterious organization was a young man in his early twenties named Oriental Chen.

When Oriental Chen's name appeared clearly on the paper, Niu Xingwang felt his head buzzing. If these things were exposed, Binjiang would be in danger!

"Have you read this letter?" Niu Xingwang asked very seriously.

"No, after he gave it to me, I put it away immediately," Left Wen Shan quickly clarified.

"Very good! Mayor Zuo, I have other matters, so I'll be leaving now. I will definitely repay you greatly in the future!" Niu Xingwang breathed a sigh of relief and bid farewell.

"Oh, oh. All right! Chairman Niu, please take your time." Left Wen Shan quickly bowed and made a welcoming gesture.

Niu Xingwang nodded, then hurriedly left the office.

After Niu Xingwang left, Left Wen Shan straightened his back and remained lost in thought.

...

Inside the main underground base in Binjiang.

"Mr. Dongfang, something bad has happened, please look at this!" Niu Xingwang rushed to find Oriental Chen in a panic.

Oriental Chen took the letter and began to read it.

"This is nothing, Brother Niu, why are you so nervous?" Oriental Chen said with a smile.

"This is nothing? If people knew of your existence, the existence of this base, do you know how serious the consequences would be?" Niu Xingwang's words even carried a hint of reproach.

Oriental Chen wasn't annoyed and made a gesture for him to sit down.

"Brother Niu, what if they know? Can they eat me?" Oriental Chen continued to smile.

"Be serious! At a time like this, you're still grinning! Don't you know that your safety concerns the future and fate of tens of thousands of Chamber of Commerce and Guild employees! Is this a game?" Niu Xingwang now sounded like a parent.

"All right, Brother Niu! You're exaggerating! To be frank, this matter was due to my oversight at the time. After the Settlement was established in Binjiang, some people in the base wanted to leave, and I believed that a forced melon wouldn't be sweet, so I let them go," Oriental Chen said.

"How many people left?" Niu Xingwang asked.

"Four," Oriental Chen replied.
