Chapter 270 Suspicion of All Parties(1/2)
After Uncle Li left the tea shop, Zhang Jin quietly followed him.
As an old underground gangster, Uncle Li is very experienced in disguise and lurking. When walking on the street, he would stop and look around from time to time, or pretend to look at the things on the stalls, or watch the slowly passing tram, expressing
All very natural.
With these natural movements, he had already used his peripheral vision to take in the surrounding situation, and any suspicious place could not be hidden from his wise eyes.
However, no matter how careful Uncle Li was, he could not detect that Zhang Jin was following him, because apart from following him for two streets at the beginning, Zhang Jin did not appear in his sight after that.
Uncle Li's vigilance and intuition are very strong, but Zhang Jin is not bad in this regard. After discovering that Uncle Li may be aware of his tracking, he put a partner mark on Uncle Li, with a range of one kilometer.
He can know the precise location of the other person, so even if he and Uncle Li are not on the same street, he will never be lost.
After following a few streets and passing through most of the concession, Zhang Jin walked out from the corner and looked thoughtfully at the gate of Jiren University diagonally opposite, where Uncle Li entered.
In the original plot, when Uncle Li bought the masthead, he said that he was just a poor teacher, but he did not say where he taught. After adding dlc, he may become a teacher at Jiren University.
But it is also possible that Uncle Li came to Jiren University to investigate Fang Min!
Zhang Jin was not surprised at all that Fang Min would be exposed, because he had constant latent contact with Dr. Su, and Fang Min was not too wary of Dr. Su, so it was normal for him to be lied to.
Uncle Li stayed at Jiren University all afternoon. After Zhang Jin followed him, he found that he was indeed teaching here, teaching Chinese and history. And he felt that there must be an underground party to support Uncle Li, otherwise he would be an old lurker.
It's impossible to be so arrogant as to keep important intelligence documents with you all the time.
However, the other party did not go to Jiren Library. It seems that there is no intersection with Fang Hanzhou and Sun Zhengqing.
There is no horizontal connection between Shanghai’s underground party intelligence groups. I just don’t know if there will be the genius poet “No. 2” Dong Wangcheng in addition to the economist “Cobra” Minglou.
After school in the evening, Zhang Jin followed Uncle Li to his residence and wrote down the street and house number.
After finishing tracking Uncle Li, Zhang Jin came to Fang's house and praised Fang Min.
The next day, Sunday, Dr. Su saw the code left by Uncle Li at the agreed point, and returned home to tell Cheng Jinyun that tonight's operation was cancelled.
Ming family, study room.
"Brother, something happened."
Minglou, who was reading a book on the sofa, looked up at Mingcheng, who was in a hurry, and said calmly: "Close the door first."
Mingcheng calmed down a bit and turned around to close the door.
"Why are you so anxious?" Minglou asked.
Mingcheng replied: "I just received news from Uncle Li, saying that they have obtained detailed information about the third theater."
"This is great. What's there to be nervous about?"
"But Uncle Li's previous plan was to take action tonight. Since there was no action, where did they get the information?" Mingcheng looked serious, "I wonder if Zhang Jin gave it to them?"
Minglou pondered: "If this is the information Zhang Jin provided to Uncle Li, then it means that he is really one of our own. Think about it, our line is controlled by him from top to bottom. If he
The Japanese and puppet spies must have taken advantage of us a long time ago. Even if they are worried about the face of the Ming family and the new government and cannot touch us, they will still send people to monitor us, and Uncle Li and the others will definitely suffer."
"Perhaps they are planning to play the long game and catch the big fish?"
"What other big fish can we catch? Aren't we the biggest fish on Shanghai Beach? Could it be that their Japanese and puppet spies can reach out to the border area?" Minglou said disapprovingly.
Mingcheng nodded in agreement and said, "Can our previous suspicion of Zhang Jin be eliminated?"
"Basically it can be ruled out."
"Do you want Mingtai to notify you of the cancellation of the action plan?"
"No, the order is revised too frequently, which will definitely aggravate his suspicion. This time is an assessment of him. Sneaking into the Japanese consulate to steal confidential information is not an easy task. Courage, planning and details must be in place.
Okay, if he wants to continue on this road, he can’t do it without a little more training, and there’s only so much we can do to help him now.”
"Okay. Fortunately, Zhang Jin's last action was very covert and did not cause the consulate to increase its vigilance at all. Otherwise, Mingtai's action tonight would be even more difficult." Mingcheng said thankfully.
"Even if Zhang Jin's actions caused the consulate to become more vigilant, this is not a bad thing. The ability to adapt to changes when performing tasks is also a very important indicator of strength. Not all plans can succeed, and plans can never keep up with changes. Mingtai
If he cannot overcome these problems, he is not worthy of being a good agent, so we should arrange for him to leave as soon as possible," Minglou said.
Mingcheng exclaimed: "Brother, you are really strict!"
"Those in our profession are all dancing on the edge of a knife. If we are not strict and cautious, we will not only harm ourselves, but also our colleagues."
"Okay, whatever you say makes sense." Mingcheng said.
Minglou corrected: "It's not that whatever I say is reasonable, it's that I say whatever makes sense. I never say those unreasonable things, right?"
"Yes, yes, please take your time and be reasonable. I will go back to the room to tidy up. In the afternoon, I will go to the Army Hospital to visit Secretary Li. By the way, I have put today's newspapers on the coffee table in the living room for you."
After Mingcheng finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the study door.
"I didn't know how to bring it in, and asked me to run around." Minglou said to him, put down the book, got up and walked towards the living room.
"The eldest sister asked me to put it in the living room. She said she wanted to see it too. If you have any objections, go to the eldest sister and tell her."
Minglou: "..."
As night fell, a celebration meeting to celebrate the victories on the North China battlefield was grandly held at the Japanese Consulate!
Pro-Japanese celebrities from all walks of life in Shanghai were invited to the scene, chatting, laughing, and drinking.
Mingtai disguised himself as a naval officer and successfully sneaked into the venue, waiting for the opportunity to act.
At the same time, at the Wusongkou Wharf warehouse, Guo Qiyun and Yu Manli were ordered to perform a smuggling ferry mission.
When Zhang Jin arrived, he saw Guo Qiyun carrying out inventory and handover in a familiar way, while Yu Manli was leaning on the guardrail of the pier, lost in thought.
"What are you thinking about? If an enemy comes, you may die several times!"
Yu Manli came back to her senses and said in surprise: "Zhang Jin? Why are you here?"
"I'm here to see Guo Qiyun." Zhang Jin looked at her puzzled expression, "Is it strange? It's not a secret that military commanders smuggle for profit. I know it, so it's not strange either!"
"You knew it a long time ago, so why didn't you tell Mingtai?" Yu Manli couldn't help but said.
"Telling him will not change these things, and may also dampen his ardent enthusiasm for serving the country."
"You are lying to him!"
"What about you, are you going to tell him?" Zhang Jin asked.
"I will tell him." Yu Manli looked very serious.
"Then when are you going to tell him?"
"..." Yu Manli hesitated.
Zhang Jin glanced at Guo Qiyun, who had completed the handover not far away, and said, "If you haven't decided when to tell him, you might as well wait and I will tell you when the most appropriate time is."
"You? Aren't you going to tell Mingtai?" Yu Manli was dubious.
"It's not that I don't plan to tell him, but I don't plan to tell him now. I just hope that you will all be well. Now is not the right time." Zhang Jin patted her shoulder and walked towards Guo Qiyun.
The military smuggling incident can be regarded as a key point in the original plot that completely broke out in Mingtai, and was one of the important driving forces for him to switch from military control to the underground party.
Because Zhang Jin intervened in the contact between Mingtai and Cheng Jinyun, Mingtai had very little contact with the underground party and had no vague yearning for the underground party. Once the smuggling incident broke out, Mingtai was disgusted with the military commander and had no one to accept.
If he organizes with enthusiasm to serve the country, the consequences may be very serious!
After unraveling the connection between Cheng Jinyun and Cheng Jinyun who made Mingtai fall into the arms of the underground party step by step in the plot, Zhang Jin had to find another way out for him, otherwise Mingtai who stayed in the military command would explode sooner or later!
It will not only injure yourself, but also injure others around you.
In fact, even without Cheng Jinyun, it is not difficult to turn Mingtai into an underground party. After all, his biological father, Uncle Li, is an underground party, his eldest brother Minglou is an underground party, Mingcheng is an underground party, and his eldest sister is a red capitalist.
He is really a child of the party!
"Zhang Jin?!"
"Guo Qiyun!"
When the two met, one was confused and the other smiled.
"Did Yu Manli tell you?" Guo Qiyun glanced at Yu Manli.
"Does she still need to tell me this kind of thing?"
"You didn't tell Mingtai about this, right?"
"not yet."
"You'd better not tell him."
Faced with Guo Qiyun's reminder, Zhang Jin just smiled noncommittally and said, "Then it depends on whether your answer, Adjutant Guo, satisfies me."
"What do you want to know?" Guo Qiyun asked with a frown.
Zhang Jin said: "I know that the military commander is doing business with No. 76. The person in charge of No. 76 is probably Liang Zhongchun, an old spy who rebelled with Chief Li from the military commander."
"You already know, what else do you want me to say? I'm just responsible for the ferry work in Area A, and I don't know anything about the rest."
"Adjutant Guo is too humble. Principal Wang was a famous poisonous bee in Shanghai back then. Chief of the Intelligence Section of the Military Command Shanghai Station, how could you not know the entire smuggling route after working with Principal Wang for many years?" Zhang Jin said directly.
Expose him.
Guo Qiyun was silent for a moment and asked: "Why are you asking these things?"
Zhang Jin said: "Don't worry, I will not betray the military commander, nor will I destroy the smuggling route."
