At six o'clock in the morning, the city that had been silent all night was recovering bit by bit.
Fuji Noodle House is a famous noodle shop in Canglang District. Its Sha Cha Noodles are very authentic. They boil the alkaline water and oil noodles in a boiler, with pig heart, pork liver, pork loin, fresh squid and other accessories, and then add a few spoonfuls of them.
With the piping hot soup, a bowl of authentic sand tea noodles is ready.
Sha Cha Noodles are popular in southern Fujian, Taiwan and Southeast Asia. Its preparation seems simple, but the simplicity shows the real skill of the Chinese. Wanting to make a bowl of Sha Cha Noodles is not as simple as it seems.
After Lin Weidong parked his car in a nearby alley, he dragged his slightly tired body and walked slowly towards Fuji Noodle House.
This noodle shop is located in Canglang District, and his family lives in Xiacheng District. He rarely comes here to eat noodles. Every time he comes here, it is to communicate with his superiors.
His superior, Lao Dao, especially likes to eat noodles, especially Sha Cha noodles. According to Lao Dao, the Sha Cha noodles at Fuji Noodle House are very well made and have the taste of his hometown.
As Lin Weidong walked, he secretly observed the flow of people around him. Soon, he found Lao Da in the crowd.
I saw Lao Dao sitting in the northeast corner outside the noodle shop. There were two bowls of noodles on the table. One bowl of noodles was for him to eat, and the other steaming bowl was obviously prepared for Lin Weidong.
Although Lao Dao is young, he is very experienced. The position he chose was just right to observe every move around the noodle shop.
There is an alley behind him. Once he notices anything unusual, he can retreat immediately.
Canglang District is an old city, and Fuji Noodle House is located in the center of the old city. The surrounding environment is very complex, with various lanes and alleys scattered throughout.
Once people dive into the alley, there are not twenty or thirty people there, and it is impossible to block all the exits, making it easy to escape.
On the other side of Jinbei Van, Duan Yingjiu immediately noticed something was wrong when he heard the report that Lin Weidong went to eat noodles.
Why did Lin Weidong drive ten minutes to Fu Ji Noodle House to eat noodles?
If he just wanted to eat noodles, there were several noodle restaurants in the place he passed just now, so there was no need to go all the way to Fu Ji.
Moreover, his family lives in Xiacheng District, and it will be time for the taxi to take over in a while. He should rush back instead of going to Fuji Noodle House in the opposite direction.
"Is there anything special about this noodle shop?"
Duan Yingjiu asked her colleagues around her with confusion. She usually didn't pay much attention to what she ate.
Upon hearing this, Lao Wu quickly replied: "Fuji Noodle House has been open for more than 20 years. Its Shacha noodles are very authentic. Many people come from across the city to eat noodles there."
Duan Yingjiu nodded thoughtfully, and then turned on the intercom.
"Lao Zhou, check the hummingbird's usual preferences, pay special attention to whether he likes to eat noodles!"
"yes!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Lao Zhou's reply came over the intercom. He and Xiao Wei were on standby and had time to check.
However, not long after Lao Zhou started the car, another command came from the intercom.
"Old Zhou, where are you now?"
Lao Zhou was driving, and he glanced at Xiao Wei next to him, indicating that he would reply.
Xiao Wei picked up the walkie-talkie and replied immediately.
"Team Leader Duan, we have just set off."
"No need to go, Hummingbird is not here to eat noodles, he is here to meet up. Now, you should turn around immediately and go to the intersection of Anming Road. Be ready at any time!"
"yes!"
Hearing that Hummingbird was chatting with someone, Xiao Wei's spirit was suddenly shaken, and most of the sleepiness in his mind disappeared instantly.
Come to life!
In the Jinbei van, Duan Yingjiu was holding a high-resolution telescope and observing Lin Weidong's every move.
After observing for a while, she keenly realized that these two people definitely knew each other!
As soon as Lin Weidong sat down, he naturally ate the bowl of noodles that had been placed on the table. The two of them were exchanging words while eating.
Lao Dao huffed and drank more than half of the bowl of noodles in one breath, then raised his head and looked at Lin Weidong opposite.
"Dongzi, please stop taking orders in the past few days. Your phone is on standby 24 hours a day, waiting for my instructions at any time."
"Okay, I understand."
Lin Weidong nodded dullly.
"By the way, this is last year's funding, which was just approved by the higher authorities."
Lao Zhen wiped his mouth and took out a bulging document bag from the bag on the side.
"Has it been approved?"
Lin Weidong's eyes lit up when he heard the word 'funding'. For overseas hidden spies like them, many of the expenses were paid in advance by themselves.
Then, the headquarters will reimburse them uniformly every year.
Reimbursement is once a year, the cycle is long, the expenditure items are complicated, and the approval speed of the headquarters is very slow, but it is not very strict.
Therefore, the annual reimbursement is also one of the few opportunities for low-level lurkers to make money.
In the 1990s, the GDP of Bay Area was 170 billion U.S. dollars, while the GDP of mainland China was only 387.8 billion US dollars. The GDP of Bay Area in a corner was about 40% of that of mainland China.
At that time, the reputation of the Four Asian Tigers was resounding throughout the world.
Around two thousand years ago, although the economy of Wanwan was not as good as that of the 1990s, it had a solid foundation accumulated in the past and its total economic volume was still very high.
The total economic volume is high, and the government's tax revenue is naturally high. They treat these spies lurking outside fairly well.
It’s not like more than ten years later, when the authorities would withhold every bit of funding they approved.
"Just approved."
The old man made up a lie without a blushing face. In fact, this money was approved at the beginning of the year.
He never gave it to Lin Weidong, nor did he want to use the money for money. He just borrowed it for a period of time and used the funds to make a quick buck.
The profit from this quick money was considerable. In just three months, he earned more than 30 percentage points.
Generally speaking, the higher the return, the greater the risk, but Lao Dao is not worried about risk. He is not an ordinary citizen. Those people who want to blackmail anyone's money will not dare to blackmail his money.
After all, the gun in his hand is not a decoration.
At the same time, on the other side, Duan Yingjiu was having a fierce ideological struggle in his heart.
Do you want to capture the hummingbird and the person who comes in contact with the hummingbird?
The terrain conditions here are complex, and without advance control, the arrest operation may not be successful with just a dozen of them.
Let go?
Continue to play the long game to catch big fish?
However, this case faces the same problem.
Not enough manpower!
And they don't know whether the other side has deployed observation posts.
If they rashly choose to follow the person who is connecting with Hummingbird, their whereabouts will be easily exposed if an observation post is placed in the other party's sight.
After hesitating for a moment, Duan Yingjiu decided to arrest him!
Ten birds in the forest are worse than one in the hand!
Of course, before the operation started, she had to make a brief report to her superiors.
