Tao Huizong just lay on the bed, covering his face with the quilt, pretending to sleep.
Even if I have the urge to have a bowel movement, I have been holding it back.
It wasn't until the ship set sail with the sound of the whistle that he could feel the shaking of the ship's hull. Then he exposed his eyes from the bed, opened the curtains and looked outside. After confirming that the ship had set sail, he breathed a sigh of relief.
However, Tao Huizong still did not dare to act rashly and continued to sleep with his head covered.
About half an hour later, after confirming that there was nothing unusual and no Japanese warships were intercepting him on the river, he got out of bed and walked around.
Tao Huizong first found the staff and lied that he was traveling with friends and met on the boat to see the passenger list.
The staff refused at first, but after Tao Huizong tipped him, he got his wish.
However, looking at the densely packed passenger list, he couldn't help but feel dizzy. The most important thing was that he remembered that he didn't even know what alias Gao Qingwu used.
In another cabin, Gao Qingwu also bribed a crew member and obtained the passenger list, but in the end it was in vain because he did not know Tao Huizong's alias.
Here, Tao Huizong returned to the cabin feeling a little disappointed. At this moment, a man with an armband that said "permitted to sell" came over with a large bamboo food box in his hand.
"Sir, do you want some cakes?" the man said, "Shen Dacheng's Tiaotou cake."
Tao Huizong was hungry and bought a piece of Tiaotou cake.
He took a bite, then frowned, "You are not Shen Dacheng's Tiaotou Cake."
"Mr. Tao, just know it. Don't talk about it. It's better to have less to worry about when you are out." Ban Anqing said with a grin.
Tao Huizong was shocked and subconsciously wanted to run away.
"Mr. Que arranged for me to accompany him to protect him." Ban Anqing whispered quickly.
Tao Huizong took a deep look at the vendor and then breathed a sigh of relief.
"Mr. Tao should not go to the crew to inquire about Mr. Gao." Ban Anqing said, "This is too eye-catching."
He said to Tao Huizong, "When I sell things, if I see Mr. Gao, I will tell him your cabin."
"Thank you, little brother." Tao Huizong nodded. He felt much more at ease when he learned that Manager Que had arranged for his subordinates to escort him.
"What do you call your little brother?" he asked.
"A063." Ban Anqing pointed to the font size on his armband and said with a smile, "Also, during the entire voyage, you will be Mr. Qu Renhong Qu."
"Sir, do you want a newspaper?" he asked.
Tao Huizong nodded.
Ban Anqing put down the food box, took out a stack of newspapers from the cloth bag he was carrying, and handed a newspaper to Tao Huizong.
"I'm afraid." He took the newspaper money from Tao Huizong and said, he showed a grateful expression, said thank you, and walked away with the food box.
Ban Anqing didn't plan to show up this early, but Tao Huizong's behavior of inquiring about Gao Qingwu seemed to Ban Anqing to be too dangerous, so he had to show up in advance:
These two people were not professionals and had no ability to hide or escape. He felt that compared with the hidden dangers caused by showing up in advance, it would be safer for him to manage these two people.
In the evening, Tao Huizong was lying on the bed reading a newspaper. The huge newspaper just covered his cheek. Only at this moment did he understand the purpose of the little brother from the military commander who sold him the newspaper.
Tao Huizong couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it was indeed as if they were separated by mountains.
"Brother Tao."
Tao Huizong heard a familiar voice, picked up the newspaper, and saw Gao Qingwu. He was overjoyed.
Gao Qingwu was very happy to successfully find Tao Huizong according to the instructions of the military vendor.
"Brother Tao," he said.
"My current name is Qu Renhong, Qu Yuan's Qu, Song Renzong's Ren, and Hong Xiuquan's Hong." Tao Huizong said with a serious expression. He felt that Gao Qingwu was really weak and unprofessional at all.
Gao Qingwu was surprised. He looked at Tao Huizong with a bit of amazement.
What happened.
After not seeing each other for several hours, Tao Huizong is so capable?
"My current name is Luo Cunyou." Gao Qingwu said, "The Luo of King Luo Bin, the Cun of high aspirations, the You of Jiayou years."
Tao Huizong was stunned for a moment, then the two of them looked at each other, first let out a long sigh, and then both laughed.
…
No. 22, Xue Huali Road.
Office of the Deputy Chief Inspector of the Central Patrol Room.
"Where is Mr. Cheng?" Pete walked in and took a quick look. He didn't see Cheng Qianfan and couldn't help but ask.
"Report to Mr. Peter." Lu Jiufan saluted Peter and said, "Mr. Cheng went to take a bath in Yuchun Creek."
"He would actually enjoy it." Peter shook his head and returned to his office helplessly.
Lu Jiu looked at Peter's back with a sarcastic smile in his eyes. He guessed that Peter was going to have a tryst with his mistress again, and wanted to ask Brother Fan to help him cover up.
"It feels so comfortable." Cheng Qianfan scooped up a ladle of water and poured it on the red-hot iron plate not far away. Suddenly there was a mist. He took a bite of the crispy radish and sighed happily.
Lao Huang was soaking in the same soup pool, holding a bottle of rice wine in his hand. He would take a sip from time to time and click his tongue with pleasure, then pinch two fried peanuts with a look of satisfaction in his eyes.
"Did you see blood?" Lao Huang took a sip of wine and asked in a low voice.
"You have a good nose." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile.
"Need help?" Lao Huang asked.
"It was handled very cleanly," Cheng Qianfan said.
He understood what Lao Huang meant. Lao Huang was reminding him that if there was any danger and needed response, he should say hello to him in advance.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue! "Why hasn't the old road come yet?" Cheng Qianfan glanced at Gua Zhong and asked with a frown.
"Wait a moment." Lao Huang said.
They had made an appointment to go to the hot spring pool together, and there was no secret meeting to be held. Therefore, even if Lu Dazhang was late for a while, the warning would not be triggered.
Say Cao Cao, and Cao Cao will come.
Lu Dazhang's voice came from outside.
"I'm sorry, I have official business at the moment, so I'm late." Lu Dazhang apologized with a smile.
"Lao Lu, you are late, but you will have to punish yourself with three drinks." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile.
"You, Mr. Xiao Cheng, have spoken. How dare you disobey Lu?" Lu Dazhang said, picked up the tea cup, tilted his neck, drank it, and then poured two more cups at lightning speed. Drink hot tea.
"Hey, hey, hey, Lao Lu, you are cheating and cheating. You are punished with three drinks. Tea is nothing." Cheng Qianfan shouted dissatisfied.
"My throat is always uncomfortable. It's best not to drink. It's not like you don't know." Lu Dazhang complained. He glanced at the two of them angrily, "I'm treating you today."
"That's pretty much it."
"Excellent." Lao Huang also touched his hands and shouted, "Another piece of pork head and a plate of pickles."
The waiter outside heard the shouting and quickly brought the pork head and pickled cucumbers.
"Huh?" Lao Huang saw that the waiter also brought a plate of crispy radishes and a plate of preserved fruits.
"This was sent to me by the manager." The waiter said quickly, "Mr. Cheng hasn't come to take a bath for a few days. The manager said that he didn't treat me well. He also hopes that Mr. Cheng will come and give me some guidance."
"Old Zhao is a very particular person." Cheng Qianfan smiled and waved his hand, "Okay, I didn't call you, so don't bother me."
Lao Zhao is the manager of Yuchunxi.
The waiter quickly left.
…
The three of them ate fruits, side dishes, preserved fruits, sipped tea and drank wine, and chatted animatedly for a while.
Lao Huang quietly walked behind the door, listened attentively for a moment, and made sure no one was eavesdropping outside. Then he quietly came back.
Although even if someone is eavesdropping outside the door, considering the sound of the water flowing in the hot spring pool, the sizzling sound of water splashing on the iron plate, and the distance of the hot spring pool where the three of them are bathing from the door, even a person with extremely sensitive hearing It's hard to overhear anything, but what these three people do is just two words:
Just be cautious.
"Why are you late?" Cheng Qianfan asked Dazhang.
"Comrade Abacus asked me to meet," Lu Dazhang said.
Cheng Qianfan immediately looked serious. Comrade Zhao Li would not make an appointment here unless there was something special.
"Comrade Yi Jun of the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee asked Comrade Abacus to inquire about a piece of news." Lu Dazhang said. As he spoke, he looked at Cheng Qianfan with a smile.
"Isn't it because the provincial party committee wants to take advantage of the batch of weapons I bought for Liming Zuan?" Cheng Qianfan understood the meaning of Lu Dazhang's smile almost instantly and asked.
"That's right." Lu Dazhang nodded, "The organization has received information that the traitor Cheng Qianfan has transported a batch of weapons, ammunition, and medical supplies to Liming Companion of the Nanjing Reform Government's Appeasement Army."
He took a bite of crispy radish and continued, "The organization is considering robbing this batch of weapons and medical supplies."
"The Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee is quite well informed," Cheng Qianfan said with a chuckle.
He asked Lu Dazhang, "How many arms are there in the batch of arms they found?"
"According to reliable intelligence, there are five reinforced platoons of Type 38 rifles and Japanese-style Southern pistols, as well as grenades and some medical supplies," Lu Dazhang said.
"The news is quite accurate." Cheng Qianfan said in surprise.
From this alone, he concluded that there were secret intelligence channels within the enemy's organization.
"Is there something wrong with this batch of weapons and supplies?" Lu Dazhang frowned and asked, "Or is it a trap deliberately set by the enemy?"
After finishing speaking, he shook his head and chuckled:
Comrade "Huo Miao" is the owner of this batch of weapons and medical supplies. If this is a trap by the enemy, how could Comrade "Huo Miao" not know about it and not give a warning?
"The materials reported to Liming Compilation are indeed large, but they are actually attrition." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile.
Lu Dazhang understood almost instantly and nodded.
"Do you need me to convey this information to the comrades of the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee through Comrade Abacus?" Lu Dazhang thought, "Just say that the number of weapons and supplies is wrong and it is not worth taking action."
"No." Cheng Qianfan shook his head, "The actual quantity of this batch of weapons, ammunition, and medical supplies is an absolute secret and must not be leaked."
Lu Dazhang nodded, he understood what Comrade Huo Miao meant.
This information can be said to be directly related to the safety of Comrade Huo Miao.
"I entrusted the Japanese Military Police Headquarters to transport this batch of arms and medical supplies by railway, and they will be escorted by the Japanese army." Cheng Qianfan said, looking at Lu Dazhang with a serious expression, "Nothing can happen to this batch of goods, and the enemy escort force
It’s so powerful that you can’t even take action.”
"This is easy to handle." Lao Huang pinched a piece of pig head meat and put it in his mouth, chewing the meat slices and said, "Let's just say that the weapons and ammunition from 'Mr. Xiao Cheng' were transported in the same train as the important supplies of the Japanese army. There may be Japanese troops along the way.
Armored train patrol protection.”
He handed a crispy radish to Lu Dazhang, "Let them retreat in spite of the difficulties."
"It's not enough." Lu Dazhang shook his head and asked the two of them, "Why don't you tell the Jiangsu Provincial Committee again and say that we also suspect that this may be a trap created by Cheng Qianfan and the Japanese, and its purpose is to ambush
We, the New Fourth Army, will cooperate with the Japanese army in their raids on Jiangnan East Road."
"This is good." Cheng Qianfan opened a bottle of Coca-Cola, drank half the bottle, burped comfortably, and said happily, "It's just that Cheng Qianfan was still making nonsense to the Japanese, saying that he would definitely attract the New Fourth Army guerrillas.
The team is stupid enough to die."
"Can."
"I agree."
Lu Dazhang and Lao Huang looked at each other and nodded.
"Be careful not to invite your comrades to rape you." Then, Lu Dazhang said with some worry.
"Don't be afraid." Cheng Qianfan lit a cigarette, took a puff, blew out the smoke ring, and said calmly, "Comrades have long wanted to get rid of me and then hurry up, and there is no shortage of this."
Lu Dazhang and Lao Huang both laughed when they heard this. They didn't say any words of comfort, and they didn't need to.
"In addition, you can tell the Provincial Party Committee through Comrade Abacus that Comrade Abacus found out that Cheng Qianfan was repairing the plank road in secret and secretly building a warehouse. He also prepared a batch of supplies to be transported to Zhenjiang through Jiujiu Trading's transportation line." Cheng Qianfan said.
"What supplies?" Lu Dazhang asked immediately.
"What supplies are the team lacking?" Cheng Qianfan asked, and then he added, "A large number of weapons and ammunition are definitely not enough."
"Cotton cloth." Lu Dazhang thought for a while and said, "Salt, gauze, disinfectant alcohol and the like."
"Cotton..." Cheng Qianfan was silent. The Chinese New Year was about to come, and it had been cold for some time. Spring was just around the corner, but the team had not solved the cotton problem yet.
Cheng Qianfan felt sour when he thought of the soldiers wearing single clothes and even going hungry, fighting in the ice and snow against the Japanese invaders who were armed to the teeth.
"Leave it to me to handle whatever you need." He nodded vigorously.
He originally wanted to say, "Leave everything to me to resolve," but the words came to his lips as "Resolve it as appropriate."
When things came to a close, his first consideration almost subconsciously was his own hidden safety.
Cheng Qianfan sighed in his heart, Cheng Qianfan, you are really a cold-blooded animal.
"One more thing." Cheng Qianfan looked at Lu Dazhang and Lao Huang and said, "The tripartite talks between the three traitors Wang Chuhai, Liang Hongzhi, and Wang Keming will be held soon. I will try my best to accompany Chu Mingyu."
He told the two of them, "If the trip goes smoothly, during the period when I am not in Shanghai, Comrade 'Piano' will temporarily serve as the acting secretary of the French Concession Special Party Branch. If there are urgent matters that need to be reported to the headquarters, he can do so through Comrade 'Piano' After agreeing, Comrade 'Harmonium' will send a report to the headquarters."
