Chapter 5 Departing and Coming

After Zuo Chong returned to the dormitory, he immediately surrounded a circle of people to inquire about him.

"Could it be that your family has helped you, and you were the first to be interviewed? What did the new principal and the special commissioner say to you?" Xing Hanliang was full of curiosity.

"It's nothing, I just asked a few questions, don't worry, there will be news soon." After Zuo Zhong finished speaking, he put the book Chen Gongshu gave him in the cabinet.

Seeing that Zuo Zhong was unwilling to speak, everyone didn't force it. Some people even secretly rejoiced. Since even Zuo Zhong can be called to talk, then they are better than Zuo Zhong. Don't they have a great chance.

Chen Gongshu, who returned to the office, stood respectfully in front of Dai Chunfeng: "Reporting officer, Zuo Zhong didn't say much after returning."

"I see, you go down, remember to seize the time and deal with that matter properly with Shen Mo." Dai Chunfeng didn't even raise his head, Zuo Zhong is a smart person, how could he make such a big deal out of it.

In fact, as Zuo Zhong said, the police academy began to select the first batch of trainees for the No. [-] training class, especially the top-ranked students in professional courses and mobile skills, and they were almost wiped out.

These selected people are also tight-lipped. Anyone who asks will say that it is an ordinary training class, which is related to the future, and no one dares to publicize it.

But the most astonishing thing is that Zuo Zhong, who was in the same period as them, was appointed as the action instructor of the training class. upset.

Then some people left and some stayed. Among them, Ban Jun went to the anti-smuggling department under the General Taxation Department, and Xing Hanliang went to the Central Police Department of the Police Department of the Ministry of the Interior.

Zuo Zhong lamented that the real person does not show his face. The anti-smuggling police under the anti-smuggling department was established just last year to manage all sea and land anti-smuggling in the territory of the Republic of China.

The Department of Police is also a good place for students to go in. It is an institution that manages people. Some students joked that in the future, their credits and promotions will depend on Xing Hanliang.

Naturally, Zuo Zhong wouldn't be jealous that the two friends had a good place to go. The Secret Service would become more and more well-known as time went on. It was ridiculous for an intelligence agency to be so famous, but one could also see its power.

Before leaving, the three of them said their goodbyes in the tavern outside the Police Academy. After two years of friendship as classmates, the separation now made the three of them a little depressed.

Seeing this, Ban Jun raised his glass as the eldest brother and said, "It's a good thing that our brothers now have somewhere to go. Besides, we're not far away. We'll just get together again when the time comes. Come on, cheers."

Zuo Zhong and Xing Hanliang were in a better mood after hearing this, and the three of them raised their glasses and drank it all in one gulp. Everyone talked about their expectations for the future, and the atmosphere improved a lot.

When he got drunk, Xing Hanliang asked Ban Jun: "Old Ban, where do you have such a strong connection that you can go to the anti-smuggling department? Even if I have a distant uncle who is the director of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, I can't go to such a good place."

Ban Jun laughed, patted the table and said: "Where did I come from, my old chief knew the situation in my family, so he helped to say a few words."

Oh, Zuo Zhong and Xing Hanliang suddenly realized that the army always pays more attention to human relations and friendship than other places. The old class is from the army, and it is normal to have a few old officers who are doing well.

The three of them drank to the top of the tree on the moon, and staggered back to the dormitory. When Zuo Zhong woke up the next day, they found that Lao Ban and Xing Hanliang had left.

It seems that what Lao Ban said was free and easy, but in fact he also felt reluctance in his heart. Zuo Zhong was lying on the bed bored, looking up at the roof.

Action instructors are not easy to do, not to mention those students who know the basics, those mid-level military and police cadres, and the university's favorites, who are fuel-efficient lamps.

If you want to subdue them, the best way is to show your hands to suppress them, but Zuo Zhong knows that showing your hands is equivalent to letting go, so troubled!

As for the sign-in system, there hasn't been any movement these days, so I'm afraid it's hopeless. It seems that we can only start with the new idea. The new idea, Zuo Zhong thought deeply.

In the days that followed, Zuo Zhong held the book in his hand all day long, gesticulating and scribbling. Others saw him and didn't know what he was doing, they just thought he was overjoyed.

In addition, Zuo Zhong had to accompany Chen Gongshu to perfect the plan to imitate the Japanese town, and the two of them even gave the project an unrelated name, the "canned food" project.

Zuo Zhong proposed to set up an experimental camp in the mountains of Hui Province first, and give priority to the training of intelligence personnel targeting Japan. This is a top priority and the effect will be quick.

The two agreed on the location, Hui Province met Zuo Zhong's previous requirements, and it was not far from Jinling, which was convenient for the Secret Service to supervise the plan.

However, Zuo Zhong and Chen Gongshu had different opinions on the selection of instructors. Zuo Zhong believed that the family of businessmen or small intellectuals should be selected, while Chen Gongshu believed that they should be selected from the families of military and political cadres of the Guo Party.

After discussing several times, Chen Gongshu still insisted: "Be careful, the first thing in intelligence work is to ask for loyalty, and the selection of instructors is of great importance. Businessmen forget their righteousness when they see profits, and small intellectuals have narrow vision. It is not the best choice."

Zuo Zhong shook his head: "Brother Gong Shu, if you think so, do the Japanese think so too? What if there are Japanese intelligence personnel among the officials' children studying in Japan? Let them participate, wouldn't it be telling the plan directly?" the Japanese."

Chen Gongshu deliberately retorted, how could the relatives of the party-state cadres be Japanese agents, but think about it carefully, if he is a Japanese intelligence officer, such people are really worth wooing.

Zuo Zhong finally said: "And in the canning plan, those instructors will live in the base for several years. Do you think the relatives of those party and government officials will be willing?"

He was too clear about the virtues of those people, so Chen Gongshu decided to listen to Zuo Zhong's suggestion, if the instructors ran out by then, then the Secret Service would be a real joke.

The plan was completed stumbling, and Zuo Zhong discovered that Chen Gongshu was worthy of being a famous figure in history. He was very thoughtful and capable in organizational structure, personnel allocation and other work.

As time passed, students from several special training classes arrived. Some of these people were recruited, and some were deceived. In short, the source is very complicated.

Dai Chunfeng specially attended the opening ceremony, and the students below knew the nature of their future work. Dai Chunfeng also said that the promotion would be fast, the salary was enough, and the chicken soup and milk were enough.

After the ceremony, Dai Chunfeng specially called Zuo Zhong to tell him: "Be careful, I have already seen the canned food plan, and there is an insecure point in it. The family members of the instructors will move out together, which can stabilize people's hearts and control them."

Zuo Zhong said respectfully: "The student is negligent, but it is the teacher who sees farther."

He thought that the loophole he had deliberately left had been discovered, otherwise how would he show Shangfeng's foresight? Chen Gongshu, who was on the side, convinced him.

"After the special training class, your principal Wang Gupan will be in charge of managing it. After the special training class is over, if you enter the headquarters, I will personally confer titles on you. You must work hard." Dai Chunfeng took Chen Gongshu back to Jinling after finishing speaking.

Only then did Zuo Zhong completely relax. In front of this old fox, he couldn't relax for a moment.

But after the special training class officially started, Zuo Zhong felt a lot of pressure again, especially after the students in the same class leaked his details, the students chatted and slept in his class.

The other instructors didn't bother to care about it. Only the principal, Wang Gupan, knew that Dai Chunfeng valued Zuo Zhong, and he stared at the students several times in class, which ensured the basic teaching order.

Zuo Zhong saw it but didn't panic. He had just started special training, and the teaching content was all knowledge from books, and it wasn't time for him to show off his skills.

Moreover, the so-called action skills in the textbooks of the special training class are a bit ridiculous, at least unrealistic. The students love to learn and do not learn, and it will not affect the real action in the future.

As for the intelligence expert that Dai Chunfeng mentioned, Zuo Zhong also saw it, and he was indeed a formidable person.

This person came quietly, and after a brief look at the progress of the teaching, it was decided that he would be the one to give lectures on special agent theory, secret carrying, chemical communication, poison, anesthesia and other courses.

Zuo Zhong listened to his class. This person is really good at teaching. He is good at combining boring theoretical lectures with vivid examples, so that the trainees can understand them well.

For example, when he talked about the theory of secret agents, he started with the story of visiting the thatched cottage three times in "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms", explaining why Zhuge Liang didn't meet until Liu Bei's third visit, and explained the relationship between the various links of intelligence collection, research and judgment, and application.

A "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" from his mouth became an image textbook of the theory of agents, and the students learned the basic theories of agents without knowing it.

The more Zuo Zhong studied, the more he felt the depth of the intelligence profession. He took some difficult questions and tried to ask that person, and that person was willing to help, and he always gave perfect answers.

You really can't underestimate the people in the world, Zuo Zhong thinks that this person is thoughtful and has a big picture, even in the modern society, he will definitely become a hero in the business world.

It was only later that Zuo Zhong found out that this person was Yu Xingle, and he was the head of the East China District of the Secret Service.

Yu Xingle also often praised Zuo Zhong's whimsical ideas, and the two got along well, so Yu Xingle told Zuo Zhong about his background, and Zuo Zhong was shocked after hearing it.

Yu Xingle went to France to study chemistry and mechanics in his early years. After returning to China, he served as an instructor at a military academy. In 1927, he was sent by the underground party to Sun Yat-sen University to study intelligence operations and secret security work. He returned to China to serve as the Secretary of the Iron Legion.

Zuo Zhong felt that if he had a firm belief and kept going all the way, he would definitely be a character who could be included in the textbook, and he might even be evaluated by a certain family.

But in the special period of the past few years, Yu Xingle did a very dishonorable thing - secretly took the army's gold as a deserter.

Zuo Zhong was a little speechless, this is really a loss of watermelon to pick up sesame seeds, but between the lines, Yu Xingle revealed regret for this matter.

Of course, this matter has nothing to do with Zuo Zhong. With a professional spy like Yu Xingle as a teacher, he put all his energy into his studies.
