Spy War 1929

Chapter 20

All the formalities were completed, and Chen Ledao officially became a member of the police force.Looking at the file in his hand, Chen Ledao smiled, he finally got his first job in this world.

Perhaps it was due to the habits of his previous life. Before he had a fixed job, he always had nothing in his heart. He always felt that there was a layer of separation from this world, and he was full of unreliability everywhere.

Now that he has secured a stable job, he feels that he has truly taken root in this world and has a real social relationship and identity.This feeling has also been there when I rented a house, but it is not as strong as it is now.Perhaps it is because people in the country have the plot to buy a house, and the rented house is never their own.

Although Chen Ledao's savings in the bank are enough for him to buy a luxury house in Shanghai, he has never acted.Before buying a house, he hopes to have a stable career.What's the use of buying a luxury house if you can't gain a firm foothold in Shanghai?

After all, even though he is full of abilities, he is still a rootless duckweed in this huge Shanghai Bund.Especially under the general background of the 30s, just a small wave can overturn him and leave him with nothing.He has been trying his best to integrate himself into this world, but the more he integrates, the more urgent he feels in his heart.

Thirty years are just around the corner, so how can the truly bloody era be so long?
After finishing all the troublesome things, Chen Ledao finally got his own work place in this building.There are not many official translators in the editorial team of the Political Department, except for him who just joined the job, and Xue Liangying who joined the job not long before him.

Before he came, Xue Liangying sat alone in an office, but now he obviously won't be treated like this.After Salley completed the entry procedures for him, Xue Liangying was the one who was leading him.The offices of the two are also together, which is better than other crowded offices.There are only two of them in the translation team, so the office is still empty.

"Old Xue, are we usually busy?" Chen Ledao asked Xue Liangying, sitting on a chair and looking up and down the office.

Although he now speaks English, French, Putonghua, and Chongqing dialect, this is his first time translating, and he really has no idea whether he can do it well.Although he didn't intend to be a good translator when he came here, he had to do his job well before doing other things.He might be good at translating a few lines of dialogue, but this allowed him to translate written official documents. He really didn't know if he had the ability.

Without real skills, even a time traveler would feel guilty.

"Hehe, our translation team can be said to be the most leisurely one in the writing team. There are very few documents that we really need to translate. I have been here for almost half a month, and what I do most is helping other people in our writing team Sort out some materials. There are not many people in the editing team, except for the two of us, the others are busy, and seeing that they are so busy, I will go to help." Xue Liangying held a book in his hand and read it with interest. .Looking at him like this, he is obviously quite proficient in this and has accumulated a lot of experience.

Chen Ledao nodded when he heard the words, and remembered what Saarley said to him before, "The Political Department handles various political cases, and is also responsible for supervising political workers from all walks of life in the concession."

"The editorial team is responsible for handling all kinds of intelligence. Does that include the intelligence of the underground workers of the Red Party?" Thinking about this in his heart, Chen Ledao couldn't help but frown.Although he is a historical idiot, he also knows that the situation of the Red Party has been very bad in the past two years, but he just doesn't know the attitude of the French Concession towards the Red Party.

The two sat in the office until noon, Chen Ledao was thinking about his own affairs, and didn't pay attention to the passage of time until Xue Liangying called him.

"What are you thinking? It's time for dinner." Xue Liangying patted him on the shoulder, and Chen Ledao came back to his senses.

"Let's go, I'm treating guests today, let's go out to eat, it's a welcome banquet for you." Xue Liangying greeted him.

"How can this be done? Of course I invited you today," Chen Ledao shook his head. Judging from what Saarley told him before, Xue Liangying is not a simple person, and Chen Ledao is very willing to make him his friend.

"Dong dong dong" while speaking, there was a sudden knock on the door.The office door was open, and the knock was evident to remind them.The two looked and saw the person coming, Chen Ledao frowned.

"Translator Xue, why are you still busy?" the person at the door said, before he noticed Chen Ledao who turned around.Seeing Chen Ledao, the man was obviously a little surprised, and the other party also recognized him.

"Mr. Chen, what are you doing?" When the words came to his lips, Inspector Ma changed his words again, "Do you know Translator Xue?"

The person standing at the door was Chief Inspector Ma whom he met when he went to the movies with Feng Chengcheng and Wang Yueqi that day. At the moment, Chief Inspector Ma was dressed in patrol clothes, standing at the door and looking at Chen Ledao in the room in surprise. He couldn't figure out how Chen Ledao could appear here.

Could it be that he and Xue Liangying are still friends?Such a thought flashed through Inspector Ma's heart.The previous view towards Chen Ledao has quietly changed a bit.If this is the case, then he might really have to take care of Chen Ledao.

"Oh, Inspector Ma Zhong," Xue Liangying couldn't help but patted his head when he saw the person coming, with an apologetic look on his face.

"Look at my memory, I forgot what I said about eating together. This is a new colleague from the translation team today, and I'm planning to go out with him." After saying this, Xue Liangying realized later I felt that I realized that the reaction of Inspector Ma just now seemed that the two knew each other.

"You guys? Know each other?" Xue Liangying looked at the two of them.He felt a little embarrassed for his mistake today. He had made an appointment with Chief Inspector Ma, but he asked Chen Ledao to go out with him just now. There was nothing more embarrassing than this.Fortunately, looking at the situation, Chen Ledao and Chief Detective Ma seem to know each other, so maybe there is some way to save this matter.

"Oh, I met Mr. Chen once before, but I didn't expect Mr. Chen to come to work with us, so we can be regarded as colleagues from now on!" Chief Inspector Ma said with a smile, suppressing the surprise in his heart.Chen Ledao actually became a member of the police department, which surprised him more than Chen Ledao being Xue Liangying's friend.

Inspector Ma is not Chen Ledao. Chen Ledao may not know what the political department means in the police department, but he knows it very well.

The Political Department has developed rapidly in the past two years. Not only has the staffing been expanded, but the rights have also been expanded.To put it bluntly, the Political Department is now a truly privileged department of the police force.As for the head of the political department, Sal Li, there is a faint tendency to become the third person in the police department, with power close to that of the deputy director of police affairs. He is truly famous in this police building.

Although Chief Inspector Ma bears the title of Chief Inspector, it sounds scary.But it was just the chief arrester of the Chinese in the central arresting room, and he was completely incomparable with Salleigh.

Not to mention him, but his immediate boss, Adolf Lorraine, is inferior to Yesarli in terms of authority.During this period of time, the Political Department expanded, and people from every department in the police force tried their best to get into the Political Department, but they didn't expect Chen Ledao to squeeze in.In his opinion, this is really unbelievable. He has nothing to do with skills, but he can't get into the police station, even if he is an interpreter who seems to have little power.

For a while, Chen Ledao's image in Chief Inspector Ma's heart became mysterious.Maybe it was too simple before, if Chen Ledao was just an ordinary person, how could he get so close to Feng Jingyao's daughter.Various thoughts flashed through Mr. Ma's mind quickly, and finally turned into a bright smile.

"Since we are all colleagues in the future, you don't have to be polite. I won't disturb the two Yaxing this time. But tonight, I will be the host of the third party, and the two translators are welcome." Chief Inspector Ma smiled. Said, Chen Ledao didn't know if it was an illusion, he always felt that today's old horse is slightly different from that day's old horse.

"Are you familiar with Inspector Ma?" Chen Ledao asked Xue Liangying after walking out of the building.

"Hehe, it's okay. Chief Inspector Ma is the Chinese chief patrol officer of the central arresting house. In this building, he is considered to have a relatively high position among the Chinese. The arresting house asked me for help two days ago, and they came and went. I just got to know each other." Xue Liangying said with a smile. "How do you know each other? I think he is very enthusiastic about you?" Xue Liangying turned to ask.

Chen Ledao shook his head, "We met once before. He knew my friend's father, so he said a few words that day, and he was not familiar."

Both of them spoke vaguely, and they both agreed tacitly without asking.It's just that Chen Ledao became more curious about Xue Liangying in his heart.Judging from these two contacts, Lao Ma doesn't seem like the kind of person who gets up early without benefit.Judging from his attitude towards Xue Liangying, this colleague seems to be quite unusual.

Just as Chen Ledao was thinking this way, he didn't know that Xue Liangying next to him had the same thoughts as him.First, he has an unusual relationship with Sal Li, and then he is very familiar with Inspector Ma.This new colleague seems to be quite interesting.

Chen Ledao is happy because the work is simple and easy, but on the other hand, Li Wangqi from the Meihua Theater is like an ant on a hot pot at the moment, jumping around in a hurry.

Mr. Feng's goods had an accident with him, and after searching for them for so many days, he still had no clue. He was so anxious that he almost bald his hair these two days.If he couldn't find the goods again, he didn't even dare to imagine how he would die.

"Damn it, they're all fucking bastards!!" Walking back and forth in the office, Li Wangqi was furious, her subordinates were useless, and Fang Yanru was also a whore who took money and did nothing.He made Xu Wenqiang the manager of Meihua.But the matter of asking Fang Yanru to intercede has not been settled yet.

If he waits any longer, his head will have to move.It's all unreliable crap.

"Dinglingling" Just as he was furious, the phone on the desk rang again.

Answer the phone. Hang up the phone.

Li Wangqi's complexion became even uglier. In the last three days, he treated her as Sherlock Holmes, and he was looking for a ghost in three days! !
"A Bing, A Bing!!"

"Where is A Bing, call him over quickly!!"

Inside the room, Li Wangqi slapped the table, her palm trembling, impotent and furious.
