Accompanied by his wife Feng Man, Dong Zhengguo acted like a loving couple, sitting on a seat at the back of the cafe. The two of them were eating small cakes and drinking coffee.
Dong Zhengguo's eyes lit up when he saw the black and white plaid scarf around the neck of the man who came in through the door.
According to the agreement, Cheng Xuyuan came to meet Wan Sanliang with a black and white plaid scarf around his neck.
This plaid scarf is not a token of recognition. Wan Sanliang knew Cheng Xuyuan.
The plaid scarf is a safety prop. If you wear a black and white plaid scarf around your neck, it means that the journey is smooth and there is nothing abnormal. If there is no plaid scarf around your neck and the scarf is put away, it means that something is wrong. This is a notification.
Wan Sanliang, who was waiting in the cafe, retreated.
"Xiao Man, try this, it's so sweet." Dong Zhengguo pushed the cake to his wife Feng Man with doting love on his face.
When he raised his head, he looked at Wan Sanliang.
Then he saw Wan Sanliang shake his head.
Dong Zhengguo's heart sank and he was puzzled. However, he quickly made a gesture to signal to his men to be calm and obey his orders and not to act blindly.
…
Seeing the person coming, Wan Sanliang frowned slightly.
However, he still folded the book he was reading and placed it on the corner of the table.
When the visitor saw the title of the book, his eyes lit up and he came over.
"Mr. Wan, please wait for a while." The visitor cupped his fists and apologized to Wan Sanliang.
"Why are you late?" Wan Sanliang said with a frown.
After Chen Gongshu came to Shanghai, in order to avoid exposure to the greatest extent and to eliminate the previous shortcomings, he had a new set of secret codes for joint contacts.
This conversation between the two is a new code. According to common sense, if the friend who is late apologizes, the one who came first will naturally smile and say he doesn't mind.
Wan Sanliang frowned and asked, this is another secret code after the black and white plaid scarf.
"Sorry, I'm really sorry." The visitor said with a smile, "I was busy very late last night, and I was totally out of energy."
Only then did Wan Sanliang calm down. He snapped his fingers and said, "Bring this gentleman a cup of coffee juice."
This is also code word screening.
"Captain Wan," the man whispered, "Traffic officer Xing Bengen of No. 3 Traffic Station."
"Where's Secretary Cheng?" Wan Sanliang asked with a frown, "Secretary Cheng was unable to come because of something unexpected. He asked me to come see Captain Wan and convey the order."
"What order?"
"The boss ordered to punish Geng Jiaji from the patrol house of Xiafei in the French Concession, and asked Captain Wan to try to get a photo of Geng Jiaji," Xing Bengen said.
"I'll try my best." Wan Sanliang nodded and said.
"It's not about trying our best, it's about necessity." Xing Bengen said with a serious expression, "Boss Dai gave a death order. Geng Jiaji must die."
"Okay." Wan Sanliang nodded heavily, "Leave it to me."
"I got the photo, please call me." Xing Bengen pushed a note to Wan Sanliang, "Just tell me that my seventh uncle has passed away. Do you want to send some money?"
At this time, the waiter brought the coffee.
The two sipped coffee and chatted and laughed for about half a quarter of an hour before Xing Bengen said goodbye and left.
As soon as Xing Bengen left, Dong Zhengguo came over and sat down with a gloomy expression, "Why don't you give the signal and take action?"
"This person is not Cheng Xuyuan." Wan Sanliang shook his head, "He is just a traffic officer."
With that said, he handed the note in his hand to Dong Zhengguo, "Please check this phone number."
…
No. 76, Jisfield Road.
"Brother Wan, do you think Cheng Xuyuan really has something to do and can't come?" Li Cuiqun looked at Wan Sanliang, "Or is he not showing up out of caution? Or maybe he smelled something?"
"It's hard to say." Wan Sanliang frowned, but after thinking about it for a moment, he said, "I shouldn't smell anything."
As he spoke, he looked at Li Cuiqun.
Li Cuiqun understood what Wan Sanliang meant and looked at Hu Sishui.
"Director, we were very careful in the whole process of inviting Brother Wan to come here, and we also paid special attention to confidentiality." Hu Sishui said, "The possibility of leaks is very small."
"In any case, the fact that they want to attack Geng Jiaji and ask you for photos shows that they trust you." Li Cuiqun thought about it and said, "At least at this stage, they don't have any clear suspicion of you."
"But be quick." Wan Sanliang thought for a while and said, "Cut the knot with a quick sword, but change will happen later."
Li Cuiqun nodded, turned to Hu Sishui and said, "Sishui, go get a photo of Geng Jiaji."
"Understood." Hu Sishui nodded.
If the director wants a photo, he can get one. If he really doesn't have one, then just drag Geng Jiaji to take a photo. As long as he doesn't tell this guy the purpose of the photo, Geng Jiaji will be willing to have more contact with him.
…
After the time difference when he first returned from Nanjing, Cheng Qianfan finally called Chongqing again and reported to Dai Chunfeng that he had suffered two consecutive assassinations in recent days:
Senior Mingjian, there are a lot of strange things in it. In the case of the assassination on the pier, if someone dared to die, according to the interrogation, his confession was that Wan Haiyang, the captain of the Sixth Detachment of the Shanghai District Operation Brigade of the Military Command, ordered Cheng Qianfan to be eradicated; in another matter, Cheng Qianfan was killed.
The gunman's arrest confessed that he carried out the assassination on Zhang Xiaolin's order; it is difficult to judge whether it is true or false.
Chongqing.
No. 19, Luojiawan.
People were in a hurry.
Dai Chunfeng's face was solemn. He put the telegram on the table, leaned back on the chair, and rubbed his temples with his right hand, "Qi Wu, I remember that the Shanghai District Action Brigade does not have a sixth detachment."
"Indeed, no." Qi Wu nodded and frowned as he said, "However, District Chief Chen is on the front line, so if there is a temporary expansion, it is not impossible."
"What are they doing?" Dai Chunfeng said angrily, his head hurting. "I have already ordered that people like Cheng Qianfan who have considerable influence in the French Concession must not do anything without orders."
"Call Chen Gongshu to ask about Cheng Qianfan's assassination at the dock and to inquire about the Sixth Division of the Action Brigade and Captain Wan Haiyang." He said in a deep voice.
"Will this expose Cheng Qianfan's identity?" Qi Wu said thoughtfully.
"It doesn't matter." A smile appeared on the corner of Dai Chunfeng's mouth, "That kid should have considered this a long time ago. Didn't you see that it has been a long time since the assassination? Why did you just call to report today?"
"It's obvious to you, Chief," Qi Wu said sincerely.
Qi Wu was about to leave to send the report, but Dai Chunfeng called him again, "Qi Wu."
"Seat."
"Call Di Ming from the Second District and ask the Second District to pay close attention to whether there is any unusual turmoil." Dai Chunfeng said in a deep voice. He did not think that Chen Gongshu would create a sixth detachment of the Action Brigade out of thin air. This was not just a matter of trusting Chen Gongshu.
, because he supports the various princes, including Shanghai District, in recruiting troops on the front line. Therefore, if Chen Gongshu really sets up a fifth or sixth team of the action brigade, there is no need to hide it, and he should take the initiative to report it.
Please give me credit.
According to what Cheng Qianfan reported in the telegram, the gunman was decisive and brave when he committed the assassination, and could be described as "dare to die." Although the arrested gunman was tortured and could not speak, his performance was still good, and his confession was even more trustworthy.
Therefore, Cheng Qianfan used the words "I am almost convinced that what he said is true and he is an operator of the Sixth Detachment of the Action Brigade".
Such strange things made Dai Chunfeng alert. He was worried that it was a new trick played by the enemy.
In this situation, it was inconvenient for Cheng Qianfan, one of the parties involved, to get too involved, so he ordered Shanghai District 2 to pay close attention to the relevant developments.
Yes, in Shanghai, in addition to Xiao Mian's Shanghai Special Agents Group and Chen Gongshu's Shanghai District, there is also a mysterious Shanghai Second District.
The Shanghai Second District was established because Wang Tiemu, Chen Mingchu, and He Xingjian rebelled and surrendered to the enemy. These three people were very familiar with the important personnel situations and working methods of the Shanghai District.
In order to prevent the work in the Shanghai District from being affected, and to learn from the lessons of this incident and the previous arrest of Zheng Weilong, Dai Chunfeng chose Xiang Diming, who had nothing to do with the military, police and other aspects of Shanghai, to establish a separate military command
Shanghai District 2.
This Shanghai District 2 is only responsible for gathering intelligence and not engaging in operations.
Not only that, Xiang Diming himself is a graduate of Peking University. He once served as a major general counselor of the National Revolutionary Army East Road Headquarters, a member of the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee of the Kuomintang Party, and the Director of the Ministry of Education. He is actually more and more influential within the Kuomintang Party.
It is unattractive and unattractive, especially in the process of establishing Shanghai District 2. Except for the district secretary and radio station personnel who were assigned by the Chongqing Bureau Headquarters, when Xiang Diming selected other personnel, he did not rely on the established military command at all.
He has connections, but uses his classmates from Peking University and his connections in the former Ministry of Education system to carry out his work.
According to what Dai Chunfeng and Qi Wu talked about in private, Chen Gongshu, the head of Shanghai District, and the junior student with great magical powers, these two people still don’t know that there is a military unified second district in Shanghai. This alone is enough to explain
Xiang Diming’s success in Shanghai District 2:
For military commanders, the most successful thing is not to be able to hide it from the enemy, but to be really powerful if you can hide it from your own people!
…
A Western-style apartment at the corner of Shanzhong Road and Haig Road in the French Concession.
This is one of the two secret strongholds of the Shanghai District Headquarters.
Cheng Xuyuan came here after a long journey.
Chen Gongshu handed him a secret message he had just received.
"This?" Cheng Xuyuan finished reading and was stunned, "Operation Brigade Sixth Division, Captain Wan Haiyang?"
He looked at Chen Gongshu and said in shock, "When did we have such an operational organization?"
Chen Gongshu also frowned and scratched his head, "Not only did such a sixth action team appear out of thin air, but the previous assassination of Cheng Qianfan at Mailan Pier was also done by this sixth team."
As he spoke, Chen Gong had a cold look on his face and snorted coldly, "If you let me know who is pretending to be our military commander to cause chaos, I will never let him go."
Yes, in Chen Gongshu's opinion, the other party is pretending to be a military commander to cause rebellion!
Although Cheng Qianfan is close to the Japanese and can be said to be a quasi-traitor and can be killed, the bureau chief repeatedly ordered not to take action against important people in the French Concession Patrol Room, including Cheng Qianfan, Shangguan Wu, etc. This group of people are now taking action against Cheng Qianfan, and
They are pretending to be in the name of Shanghai District. This is causing trouble and causing chaos, which will seriously affect the safety of Shanghai District.
Apart from anything else, Cheng Qianfan cherished his life very much. If he really believed that it was the Sixth Squadron of the Military Command Shanghai District who took action against him, with his viciousness and vengeful temperament, he would definitely retaliate against the Military Command Shanghai District.
In fact, Cheng Qianfan's revenge may have been secretly launched. According to the information obtained by Chen Gongshu, Cheng Qianfan's close subordinate Li Hao has been in frequent contact with people in the world recently, and it seems that he has made some big move.
Thinking of this, Chen Gongshu was alarmed, "Secretary, I'm worried that Cheng Qianfan will misunderstand and take retaliatory actions against us, so we have to guard against this."
As he spoke, he expressed his guess.
"If this is really the case, Cheng Qianfan is being cunning. He did not use his apparent power, but asked Li Hao to recruit those people in the world. This is very covert and cunning." Cheng Xuyuan was also shocked.
The two immediately reached a consensus and strictly ordered all ministries to be more careful and guard against retaliation from Cheng Qianfan.
…
"Section 1, this Wan Haiyang and Team 6..." Cheng Xuyuan thought over and over again and said with a frown.
"But what did you find?" Chen Gongshu saw Cheng Xuyuan's hesitant attitude.
"Brothers Wan Sanliang of the Fourth Operation Brigade..." Cheng Xuyuan said carefully, "I don't know whether this group of people chose such a name intentionally or unintentionally."
Chen Gongshu glanced at Cheng Xuyuan and laughed, "My secretary, I don't want to make random guesses."
He shook his head and said with a smile, "This is just a coincidence. Wan Sanliang is loyal to the party and the country and would not do something like this behind our backs."
He handed a cigarette to Cheng Xuyuan, "To put it another way, if Wan Sanliang is really messing around, how could he take a name like Wan Haiyang?"
"Besides, one Operations Team Four is not enough for Wan Sanliang. He, Wan Sanliang, is not a fool. He has to violate family laws and secretly create an Action Team Six?" Chen Gongshu smiled and bent over. He felt that although Cheng Xuyuan
He is very vigilant, but he is obviously a little nervous.
Cheng Xuyuan touched his nose, and after hearing what Chen Gongshu said, he also felt that his sudden idea just now was a bit too ridiculous.
"Then how to reply to Boss Dai about this matter?" Cheng Xuyuan said thoughtfully.
"Let's just say that our department conducted a self-examination and found that there was no such thing as the Sixth Squadron and Wan Haiyang. It was suspected that the anti-Japanese elements were civilian anti-Japanese elements acting in the name of our military commander..." At this point, Chen Gongshu suddenly frowned and asked Cheng Xuyuan, "What do you want from Shanghai?"
The person who wants to kill Cheng Qianfan is like a crucian carp crossing the river, but there are not many people who have the ability to cultivate people who dare to kill him, and the most likely one among them is Zhang Xiaolin."
He pondered and said, "This boss Zhang wants to kill Cheng Qianfan, and no one in Shanghai knows it."
"What the district leader is saying is that he suspects that this group of people are actually Zhang Xiaolin's people, and that they deliberately used my name as Shanghai District to attack Cheng Qianfan?" Cheng Xuyuan said thoughtfully.
"It's not impossible." Chen Gongshu nodded and said, "Add this sentence to say that we speculate that Cheng Qianfan's enemies, such as Zhang Xiaolin and other forces, may be responsible for the secret investigation."
"That's the best." Cheng Xuyuan nodded, expressing recognition and support.
…
Two days later.
Cheng Qianfan went to Japan's Shanghai Military Police Headquarters to attend a banquet invitation from Atsushi Kawada.
Here, Cheng Xuyuan received a report from Xing Bengen, the traffic officer directly under the district headquarters, and Wan Sanliang, the captain of the Fourth Operation Brigade, called and sent a signal:
The photos have been obtained.
