This is a large suite facing south on the third floor, with two bedrooms, two living rooms and two bathrooms.
This modern apartment is very popular in the beach, especially for those who have drunk foreign ink, who are very interested in apartment houses and think it is a rather modern way of life:
The apartment is not as hustle and bustle as the Shikumen, so it will not be disturbed.
The room has a large built-in closet made of teak, and hot water is available in the kitchen and bathroom, gas and electric stove.
Even all the sanitary ware in the apartment are imported from England.
Also, the apartments have a higher floor and can enjoy modern urban landscapes.
This is the apartment where Mr. Xiao Cheng’s Golden House is located.
When I entered the hall, I saw a tall woman sitting on the sofa. Because the fire was set in the fireplace, the room was much warmer than outside. The woman took off her coat and only wore a cheongsam. Her slender calves were very casual, and her feet were shoes that were not too high heels.
The woman was reading quietly, and Zhang Ping led the male owner back. She raised her head and smiled slightly at Cheng Qianfan, "Here you come."
Cheng Qianfan couldn't help laughing. He pointed at the tall woman with short hair with her ears, "Old Zhao, oh, Lao Zhao, you are so arrogant."
Zhao Shuli blushed and argued, "Revolutionary work needs it, work needs it."
Zhang Ping held back her laughter and introduced, "Darling, this is my new friend recently, Ms. Kuang Xiaoqin."
"Hello, Ms. Kuang." Cheng Qianfan said seriously and stretched out his hand.
Zhao Shuli smiled bitterly and shook his head, shook hands with Cheng Qianfan.
After a simple chat and laugh, the few people quickly got to the point.
...
"Chen Mingchu is very cautious," said Zhao Shuli. "Although I have been making friends with him for a while, this person said he was a friend, but in fact he didn't trust anyone."
"What we want is not to believe in Chen Mingchu. As long as we can grasp this person's whereabouts," said Cheng Qianfan.
Dai Chunfeng ordered Qi Wu to come to Shanghai in person. In addition to announcing the upgrade and reorganization of the Special Information Group, he also issued a sanction order, ordering the Shanghai Special Information Department to cooperate with Shanghai to eliminate military traitors such as Chen Mingchu, Wang Yingmu, and He Xingjian.
Xiao Mian’s Shanghai Special Information Office is responsible for providing information, and Chen Gongshu’s Shanghai District is responsible for taking action.
The most important thing in this plan to fight traitors is to grasp the exact whereabouts of Chen Mingchu, Wang Yingmu and other traitors, and then they can crush these people who forget their ancestors into powder with thunder.
Cheng Qianfan ordered Zhao Shuli to try to grasp the whereabouts of Chen Mingchu and others.
In fact, the Chongqing Bureau Headquarters has issued a sanction order against the Special Information Department and the Shanghai District. The last time Sheng Shuyu came to Shanghai, his intention was to join forces with "Xiao Mian" to plan the sanction of the military traitors.
However, before Sheng Shuyu started to take action, he was targeted by No. 76, and he was almost arrested by the secret service headquarters. If Cheng Qianfan had not rescued him, Sheng Shuyu would have been more than just seriously injured Li Shanghai.
Comrade "Abacus" was ordered by Cheng Qianfan to enter No. 76. Inspector Zhao was narrow-minded and quite loyal, and he was quite popular within No. 76.
Regarding Chen Mingchu, Wang Yingmu, He Xingjian and other military traitors, whom to choose as the goal and breakthrough point, Cheng Qianfan once held a party branch meeting to discuss.
The first thing to discuss is whether to help the National Party, the Military Control Commission, and "Xiao Mian" a favor.
The conclusion is very direct. This is a busy task. Brothers fight against the wall and defend against insults outside. The war of resistance is the most important thing at present. Both public and private, they must help "Xiao Mian".
Then we will discuss who is the breakthrough.
Cheng Qianfan believed that He Xingjian could be a breakthrough. Although this person was also from the Lixing Society's secret service, because he had been in the military for a long time, this person was not as familiar with the secret service as Wang Yingmu and others, and perhaps he was the one who was better close to the few.
Lu Dazhang recognized Cheng Qianfan's choice more.
Compared with the veteran spy leader of Lixing Club such as Wang Yingmu, He Xingjian, the former deputy commander-in-chief of the Loyal and Righteous National Salvation Army, may have been better used as a breakthrough.
However, Lao Huang had different opinions. He believed that Chen Mingchu was a more suitable breakthrough. This person's status and qualifications in the Military Control Commission were under Wang Yingmu, He Xingjian and others. After surrendering to No. 76, Chen Mingchu was not actually more valued as he expected. Such frustrated people are actually more accessible.
Zhang Ping supports Lao Huang’s opinion, and her reasons are very direct:
Wang Yanmu was betrayed by Chen Mingchu.
Compared with Wang Yingmu, people like Chen Mingchu are more selfish, and selfish people are more greedy and closer.
Zhao Shuli gave his analysis and judgment based on his contact with these people:
Wang Yingmu is quiet and has a simple life. This person seems not very enthusiastic about seizing a higher position on No. 76, or is waiting for an opportunity, so it is not convenient for this person to get in touch.
He Xingjian did not actually appear at No. 76, Jisifeier Road. This man knew that his biggest foot was in the army, so he spent most of his time with his subordinates, and when he went in and out, the guards were almost inseparable from each other.
Compared with Wang Yingmu and He Xingjian, although Chen Mingchu was suspicious and afraid of death, Chen Mingchu was more eager for money and power. After joining No. 76, he was also quite active and actively offered suggestions for No. 76 to hunt down and suppress anti-Japanese forces.
Therefore, Zhao Shuli believed that Chen Mingchu was more suitable for closeness.
After careful consideration, Cheng Qianfan agreed with Zhao Shuli's choice. After all, Zhao Shuli knew all three of them better, and as the real executor, Zhao Shuli had the most say.
...
"It's very difficult." Zhao Shuli shook his head, "Chen Mingchu never takes the initiative to go to the appointment. Even if I am friends with him, Chen Mingchu is still elusive in front of me."
He said to Cheng Qianfan, "It's too difficult to grasp this person's whereabouts."
"And if I asked Chen Mingchu to go to a certain place and then the Military Control Commission took action, my suspicion would be impossible to wash away." Zhao Shuli said.
"This is natural." Cheng Qianfan nodded, "Although it is a cooperation between Guohong, the first thing we have to do is to protect ourselves."
He lit a cigarette, took a sip, and fell into thinking.
Zhao Shuli picked up the cigarette box that Cheng Qianfan placed on the table and took out a cigarette, but did not smoke it, but just took it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it.
He is now dressed as a man and is dressed as a woman, and Ms. Kuang only smokes women's cigarettes.
"Chen Mingchu himself, we have nothing to do for the time being." Zhang Ping thought for a while and said, "So, where are the people around Chen Mingchu?"
She looked at the two of them, "For example, if Chen Mingchu has a subordinate who is inseparable from him, if we can grasp this person's whereabouts, wouldn't it be like we have grasped Chen Mingchu's whereabouts?"
"Comrade 'harmonic' has this idea." Cheng Qianfan nodded and said, "There is no need to be limited to Chen Mingchu, Wang Yingmu, and even He Xingjian. We are not too eager to get in touch with the two of them, but we can try to find a breakthrough from the people around them."
Zhao Shuli suddenly moved slightly.
Zhang Ping and Cheng Qianfan both noticed Zhao Shuli's expressions and were both happy, but they did not disturb Zhao Shuli, who was thinking hard.
...
Cheng Qianfan walked into the inner room, and sat down on Zhang Ping's bed, then lay down on purpose, and even "accidentally" ash fell on the bed sheets.
Zhang Ping smiled and watched all this, she understood why Comrade ‘Faughan’ did this.
"I went out on the street the day before yesterday and met that person." Zhang Ping said.
"Ying Huaizhen?" Cheng Qianfan raised his eyebrows and asked.
Zhang Ping nodded, "I recognized her, but I don't know if this Miss Ying recognized me."
Cheng Qianfan smiled.
Ying Huaizhen naturally recognized Zhang Ping.
Ying Huaizhen was ordered by Xiao Mian to become the person around him, so he naturally paid special attention to Cheng Qianfan's "other women".
Cheng Qianfan stole Zhao Shuli's woman, which directly led to the "Xiao General Cheng" in the police station in the central district of the French Concession and Inspector Zhao turning against each other. This also made Zhang Ping, the woman involved, very eye-catching, and Ying Huaizhen naturally paid special attention to Zhang Ping.
"Ying Huaizhen is not simple, you have to be careful." Cheng Qianfan said.
Cheng Qianfan never dares to underestimate this alumnus who graduated from Xiongzhen Building, Hangzhou.
"Ala knows." Zhang Ping nodded.
She was particularly alert to Huaizhen, perhaps because of the woman's intuition. She thought that the woman seemed charming and tender, but in fact she was far more dangerous than what she looked like.
...
When Cheng Qianfan and Zhang Ping returned to the living room, they saw the smile in Zhao Shuli's eyes.
"It seems that there are gains." Cheng Qianfan said happily.
"Yes." Zhao Shuli nodded, "I remembered someone."
He looked at Cheng Qianfan and Zhang Ping, "Or it was a person I remembered that Chen Mingchu once mentioned to me."
"who?"
"Meng Ketu." Zhao Shuli said.
"I have an impression of this person." Cheng Qianfan nodded, "If I remember correctly, he is Wang Yingmu's person."
"Yes, Meng Ketu is Wang Yingmu's capable subordinate." Zhao Shuli nodded.
Cheng Qianfan nodded, and then he met the number.
Meng Ketu is an old agent of the Military Control Commission. In the 21st year of the Republic of China, the Military Control Commission Tianjin Station was established, and Wang Yingmu served as the leader of the operation team. At that time, there were eight people in the operation team, and Meng Ketu was one of them.
