As night fell, Li Jie was sitting alone at the hotel bar, drinking wine, thinking about how to reveal Gao Yuan's identity, when a sweet laugh came to his ears.
"It's a long night, wouldn't it be boring for you, sir, to drink wine alone?"
Li Jie turned around and saw her pouting her lips with a smile and looking at him charmingly. Her flower-like oval face was as crystal clear as jade, her cheongsam made her graceful and slender figure, and her flaming red lips looked particularly enchanting.
Is it her? "Bad Woman" Zhuang Xiaoman! One of the most popular characters in the original work, she appears to be a senior intelligence agent of the Wang Puppet Government's Secret Service, but her true identity is the "Flying Eagle", an agent of the Nationalist Government's Shanghai Station.
With his ability, he was able to maneuver among important Japanese military officials, wealthy businessmen, and senior officials of the Wang Puppet Government.
Zhuang Xiaoman chuckled when Li Jie didn't answer: "What? Don't you want to buy me a drink? This is not what a gentleman should do, are you right, Mr. Xiao?"
Li Jie smiled. Zhuang Xiaoman came just in time. Li Jie knew that the other party would never do anything meaningless. Since she pointed out her identity, she must have come prepared and stood up to pull him.
Use the stool next to you to make an invitation.
"The clouds think of the clothes, the flowers think of the face, the spring breeze blows on the threshold and the dew is thick. How can I not understand the charm when accompanied by a beautiful woman."
"please!"
Zhuang Xiaoman looked at Li Jie angrily: "Mr. Xiao is indeed a scholar, and he praises others so meaningfully. This is the first time Xiaoman has seen him."
"Xiaoman? Look at the sky at dawn and the clouds at dusk. Manqian has more words to say when she returns. What a good name!"
Zhuang Xiaoman picked up the cigarette on the table, with a flash of fire, took a puff and blew out a smoke ring, and said in a leisurely manner.
"This is the first time Xiaoman has heard of such an explanation. Mr. Xiao is indeed a world-famous scholar."
Li Jie knew that Zhuang Xiaoman was a member of the military commander. When he first met her, he planned to reveal some of the information obtained yesterday to her. Since the two sides were in different camps, it was inconvenient to reveal their identities directly, so he could only choose to reveal a few of the famous ones.
Give it to her.
"No, Xiao is not famous all over the world. Only people like Mr. Wan Yong and Mr. Chen Hanmo can be called great scholars. I benefited a lot from my exchange with them last night."
Zhuang Xiaoman glanced at Li Jie suspiciously. Although he intentionally led the topic to his banquet yesterday, it was too smooth.
The two people she mentioned casually were the ones she didn't expect. Wan Yong and Chen Hanmo. According to her understanding, they had published anti-Japanese speeches in newspapers a month ago. Unexpectedly, they had secretly defected to the Wang Puppet Government. Damn it, little one.
This damn girl Gu usually doesn't pay much attention to these things, but Gu has no impression of these two people being so famous.
"Haha, how can these two compare to you, Mr. Xiao? Mr. Xiao's name has long been spread throughout the East and the West. 'Being famous all over the world in one fell swoop' refers to people like you."
Li Jie shook his head: "My name is not worth mentioning. In terms of contribution, I am still far behind. I just wrote one book. Mr. Ji Ronghua's contribution to domestic education cannot be achieved by me writing one or two books."
Comparably, I often listened to his lectures when I was studying."
After saying this, he sighed and drank all the wine in the glass.
The Ji Ronghua mentioned by Li Jie was also a famous scholar at that time. When Zhuang Xiaoman heard this name, his heart trembled and he wanted to ask Li Jie if he had seen him at the banquet yesterday.
But after drinking, Li Jie changed the topic and did not continue the conversation. Zhuang Xiaoman could not ask further questions and could only agree.
After continuing to drink for a while, Zhuang Xiaoman pretended to be drunk and said in a sweet voice: "Mr. Xiao, you have a good capacity for drinking. Xiaoman is too drunk and has to go home. I will have a few drinks with you next time to make amends."
After saying that, he picked up the handbag on the table and walked out of the bar. He walked out of the hotel and hailed a rickshaw. After driving on the road for a while, Zhuang Xiaoman suddenly sobered up and was no longer drunk, and said to the rickshaw driver.
"To No. 28 Jufu Road!"
“Great!”
Jufu Road is located in the French Concession. Now Shanghai is under the jurisdiction of the Japanese. Only the concession still has a trace of pure land. The concessions of various countries are also the preferred hiding places for intelligence personnel, because the Japanese cannot conduct large-scale searches in the concession.
This address is one of the residences of Zhuang Xiaoman's partner "Lao Dao". Lao Dao will live at this address every single day. The news I heard today is really important. The three words spit out from Li Jie's mouth
Each name is more important than the last, especially the last mentioned Ji Ronghua. Zhuang Xiaoman needs to urgently confirm whether the other party has defected to the enemy. With Ji Ronghua's appeal, once it is clear that he has surrendered to the enemy, the consequences will be unimaginable.
"Boom! Boom, boom, boom! Boom! Boom"
The regular knocking on the door was the code that the two of them had agreed upon in advance. Lao Dao never lit the lights at night when he lived here. If the code was wrong, he would pretend that no one was there.
Lao Dao hid behind the door. After the knock on the door, he breathed a sigh of relief and put the pistol in his hand back to his waist.
"Why are you coming here so late? This is against the regulations!"
Faced with Lao Dao's question, Zhuang Xiaoman said coldly: "Why would I come if there was nothing wrong? If the matter is urgent, Boss Cheng must be notified immediately."
Lao Dao was shocked when he heard this. This partner has always been decisive and wise. The emergency she mentioned was definitely not a trivial matter. There must be something important.
"Flying Eagle, what happened?"
Zhuang Xiaoman sighed: "The well-known scholar Wan Yong and Chen Han committed treason and surrendered to the enemy. Ji Ronghua is suspected of treason and needs to be closely monitored!"
"What!"
Lao Dao lost his voice when he heard the news. Fortunately, he reacted instantly and covered his mouth with his hand without screaming. This news was really shocking. Wan Yong, Chen Hanmo last month, he
After following him for a while, he didn't see any intention of surrendering to the enemy, but Zhuang Xiaoman wouldn't make a mistake.
"Is this news true?"
Zhuang Xiaoman nodded: "It's most likely true. Let Shangfeng send people to monitor it for two days to find out. It's too late and I have to rush back. You should report this news to Boss Cheng as soon as possible."
After Zhuang Xiaoman left, Lao Dao did not dare to delay, so he hurried out and rushed to Boss Cheng's residence after staggering the time.
After Li Jie finished drinking and returned to his room, he felt a little more relaxed. With double insurance, the military commander would definitely be able to receive this information. The military commander had one branch in Shencheng and two branches. In the original drama, Gao Yuan belonged to one branch, and
Zhuang Xiaoman is on the other side, and the Blue Party will definitely receive the news of double insurance.
The time for the exchange meeting is getting closer and closer, and one party alone is unable to stop this false and exaggerated farce. Although today is a bit risky, after this experience, it is impossible for Zhuang Xiaoman's intelligence to have no clue about his identity.
Doubts, but everything is worth it to stop this farce.
