In the White Russian bakery next to the central prison house, Xu Huanshan, who was calm and secretly worried, did not wait to come to Tangcheng, but waited for An Xiaohu and Hu Cheng, who smelled of gunpowder smoke but pretended to be calm. An Xiaohu
Xu Huanshan saw with his own eyes the situation when the two were surrounded. If it were him, Xu Huanshan knew that there was absolutely no way he could escape the siege of those men in short clothes.
But An Xiaohu and An Xiaohu came back safe and sound, but Tang Cheng was nowhere to be seen. Xu Huanshan, who still had a hint of clarity in his heart, immediately left the bakery with An Xiaohu and An Xiaohu. Under Xu Huanshan's constant questions, An Xiaohu and An Xiaohu
He recounted the story of how the two of them were rescued, complementing each other twice. Knowing that An Xiaohu and the other two were not sure whether the masked man was also out of danger, Xu Huanshan's expression instantly solidified. Compared with the bill of lading,
Xu Huanshan believed that the value of Tangcheng was higher.
Recalling that An Xiaohu said that the masked man who rescued them rarely spoke to them during the whole process, Xu Huanshan's mood became heavier. Before this incident, Xu Huanshan might have thought that Tang Cheng did not agree with An Xiaohu.
People talk to better hide their identity, but after experiencing this incident, Xu Huanshan already had a clear understanding in his heart.
Maybe Tang Cheng will change the way and attitude of contact with underground party organizations in the future. After all, to rescue An Xiaohu and the other two, Tang Cheng is risking his life and being burned. An hour later, Xu Huanshan, who had been wavering, finally gave Tang Cheng
The person who answered the phone was not Tang Cheng or Zhou Hongzhuang, but Zhang Jianghe, whom Xu Huanshan had never met before.
There were continuous gun battles on the streets in the French Concession today, and large weapons such as handguns were used in the exchanges. The cook who went out to buy food had already reported this as news to Zhang Jianghe. Zhang Jianghe had just learned about it.
At that time, I did not associate Tang Cheng with this incident, especially when Tang Cheng left his residence, he did so under the pretext of going out for shopping. Moreover, throughout the day, things Tang Cheng purchased were sent to him by merchants one after another.
residence.
But when Tang Cheng, who was looking exhausted, returned to his residence, Zhang Jianghe discovered traces of blood on Tang Cheng's trousers from Tang Cheng, who was smelling of perfume. Zhang Jianghe planned to ask Tang Cheng after dinner, but he didn't expect it.
However, Xu Huanshan called during dinner. It was just a few ordinary conversations. Zhang Jianghe had already judged that the person calling on the other end of the phone was not an ordinary person.
Zhang Jianghe has always believed in his premonitions and judgments. After all, it was his astuteness and vigilance that allowed him to successfully lurk within the Kuomintang for so many years. With a preliminary judgment, Zhang Jianghe answered the phone on the phone.
Xu Huanshan on the other end conducted a quiet test. He had long known that there was an uncle who worked in the intelligence department next to Tangcheng. Xu Huanshan, who did not react at first, gradually became wary.
Xu Huanshan and Zhang Jianghe tested each other on the phone. Until Tang Cheng came down from upstairs, Zhang Jianghe could not identify who Xu Huanshan was on the other end of the phone, but he was already sure that the other party was
Friends are not enemies. "Mr. Xu, we may need to change the way we get along in the future." After receiving the call, Tang Cheng simply made things clear to Xu Huanshan on the phone after Zhang Jianghe left.
What happened today gave Tang Cheng a warning, especially when it might involve his family members. Tang Cheng had to be careful. Tang Cheng no longer planned to get involved in what Xu Huanshan said before, and it just so happened that Xu Huanshan
After making the call, Tang Cheng decided to explain the matter clearly to Xu Huanshan on the phone. "I'm afraid I can't help with the matter you mentioned before, because I have to return to Nanjing immediately, and my time no longer allows me to participate in your
That's what I said."
Xu Huanshan, who was on the other end of the phone, heard this and was secretly sad. At the same time, he understood in his heart that it should have happened during the day, which changed Tang Cheng's mentality. "Brother Tang, you are too outrageous to say this. What happened during the day,
Thank you very much for your help. As for the previous matter, I can find a way to solve it myself. Maybe in a few days, I will return to Nanjing. When I return to Nanjing, we will still have a chance to meet again!
"
Xu Huanshan called Tang Cheng at this time. The biggest purpose was to test Tang Cheng's attitude, so he mentioned in his words that he would meet again in Nanjing. How could Tang Cheng not hear the profound meaning in Xu Huanshan's words?
"Mr. Xu, it may not be possible to meet again in Nanjing. To tell you the truth, I am returning to Nanjing this time just to get a transfer order, and then I will go south to Chongqing soon. Therefore, the possibility of us meeting again in the future has been eliminated.
Very little."
Tang Cheng didn't even try to cover up at all on the phone. He made his plans clear to Xu Huanshan. Xu Huanshan on the other end of the phone couldn't help being speechless. What Tang Cheng just said should be regarded as indicating his attitude, that is
Xu Huanshan would never want to see that contact with him would be cut off in the future. Xu Huanshan, who finally found his way to Tangcheng and conducted a detailed investigation of Tangcheng, was very optimistic about the young man Tangcheng.
He never expected that just a sudden change would cause Tangcheng to suddenly change its attitude towards the underground party. Doesn't that mean that all his previous efforts were in vain! Xu Huanshan on the other end of the phone was upset.
Tang Cheng's mood here wasn't very good either, but compared to Xu Huanshan's loss, Tang Cheng felt more regret and self-reflection in his heart.
Tangcheng initially came into contact with the Nanjing underground party and secretly helped the other party. This was because Tangcheng, who came from later generations, grew up under the red flag, and the elders in the family taught him about the relationship between country and family from an early age. Coming to this place
In this era, Tang Cheng has a magical system that ordinary people do not have. Tang Cheng has always wanted to do something for this country that has gone through suffering. Tang Cheng, who has the memory of future generations, naturally knows who is the savior of the working people, so he secretly helps
Nanjing underground party organization.
Perhaps it was the constant smooth sailing that made Tangcheng feel a little elated. With the skills and items obtained from the system lottery, Tangcheng even sometimes felt that he was almost invincible. In this state, when he came to Shanghai
He began to have frequent contact with Xu Huanshan. Not only did he participate in helping the Shanghai underground party snatch medicines, but he also pretended to be smart and kept Zhou Hongzhuang, a peripheral member of the Shanghai underground party, by his side.
Tang Cheng kept Zhou Hongzhuang by his side so that Zhang Jianghe could have a channel and opportunity to contact his superiors. However, afterward, Tang Cheng found that his decision was a wrong move. Because Zhou Hongzhuang was not even considered a
She is a peripheral member of the Shanghai underground party, so she has no ability to contact the Shanghai underground party organization. At this time, Tang Cheng is also worried about the identity verification that the intelligence department may carry out on Zhou Hongzhuang.
After getting a timed gun and placing it next to him, Tang Cheng had to start secretly planning to give Zhou Hongzhuang a new identity, at least one that could pass the review of the Intelligence Department. At this time, Tang Cheng was still
He was just worried that Zhou Hongzhuang's identity would be exposed and would cause trouble, but he didn't realize that his connections with the underground party were becoming more and more intensive. He also didn't realize that it was difficult for him alone to defeat the intelligence agency and the special forces.
A state machine like Hi-Tech.
Yan Xishan, who once called himself the king of Shanxi, often said that he was dancing on three eggs in his life. He could not offend anyone because he had both sides, but in the end he still lost Shanxi. It was not until today in the French Concession that Tangcheng suddenly realized that he was
He was also dancing on three eggs. If he was not careful, not only would he be in trouble, but his family might also be implicated. On the way back to his residence, Tang Cheng had been thinking about this issue, and finally found that he was feeling a little dizzy during this time, and
It has reached the edge of danger.
Tangcheng's biggest concern in this era is that the family members who have been sent to Chongqing have caused so many things. Tangcheng is completely thinking about the family. Suddenly there is a danger that threatens the safety of the family. According to Tangcheng
Because of his temper, the dangerous signs must be eliminated immediately. "Mr. Xu, when we come to Chongqing in the future, we will still be friends!" When Tang Cheng said the last two words, he bit the pronunciation of the words heavily. Xu Huanshan also understood what Tang Cheng wanted.
the meaning to be expressed.
There is a difference between friends and comrades, and the difference is very big. In a sense, these two words in Tangcheng have cut off Xu Huanshan's opportunity to develop Tangcheng. Xu Huanshan on the other end of the phone was heartbroken when he heard this.
Lost, Tangcheng has clearly defined the relationship between the two of them. From now on, they are just friends rather than comrades. This has shown that Tangcheng has rejected the solicitation of the underground party.
After hanging up the phone, Tang Cheng secretly let out a sigh of relief. He had never known how to express his attitude to Xu Huanshan before, but now he realized that there was nothing to be embarrassed about. He finally expressed himself to Xu Huanshan, who represented the Nanjing underground party organization.
Tang Cheng, who felt relieved, immediately felt better and returned to his usual lightness at the dinner table. Zhang Jianghe also secretly breathed a sigh of relief as he watched.
In the next two days, Tang Cheng never left his residence. He was either hiding in the study room to discuss matters with Hans who came to visit him, or dealing with the tailor and shoemaker who came to his house, waiting for Hans to drive to see Tang Cheng off as agreed.
When the three of them went to the dock, the luggage carried by the three in Tangcheng had increased to four large suitcases each. "Hans, my friend, thank you for your help during this time. Don't forget, I'm with you."
As I said, if the current situation really comes to that point, and you come to Chongqing, I will definitely help you."
When bidding farewell at the dock, Tang Cheng opened his arms and gave Hans a bear hug, and then got on the boat without looking back. He waited until the boat left the dock and drove far away before Tang Cheng came out of the cabin to the deck and saw
As Shanghai gradually faded away, Tang Cheng felt filled with emotion. In Shanghai, he finally left his own footsteps and imprints. (To be continued)
