Code Name: Flame

Chapter 16 Rescue
When the group returned to the hotel, Gu Minghua saw that Chen Jia's eyes were filled with admiration, and kept asking him, "Who is General Patton? Do you know Wang Yaqiao?"

"Sister, don't shake it, your arm is broken by you. I bluffed them, do you still take it seriously?"

"Oh, you are amazing, I thought everything you said was true..."

Chen Jia ignored him, watching Du Jia treating Luo Tongsheng's wound, it should be all skin trauma, no big problem.

"How did you fight them?"

Luo Tongsheng faltered and said: "I~~I won a little money in their game..."

Understood, if you are a cheating friend, you deserve to be beaten.In this way, it seems that my side is the unreasonable side.But if I don't help my relatives, what if I beat them?Do you really think I'm afraid of them?Let's go back to Nanjing early after going to the bank tomorrow.

Chen Jia was not afraid of the Green Gang, but of trouble.How many members does the Green Gang have in Shanghai?There are at most 50 people, ranging from the head of state, Dai Li, the chief of the secret service, Yang Hu, the chief of the Shanghai police station, down to the driver pulling the rickshaw, and the excrement trucker emptying the toilet.
Bull 76, right?You can't do anything without the Green Gang.

Japanese cattle, right?They couldn't stay in Shanghai without the Youth Gang.

Communist bull, right?Without the Green Gang, they would not be able to buy supplies at all, and they would not be able to transport them out if they bought them.

"Then how will you mess around in Shanghai in the future? Today's level is over, what about tomorrow?"

Luo Tongsheng didn't speak, but just lowered his head.

Du Jia packed up the gauze and the potion, and seeing Luo Tongsheng's unlovable look, she asked distressedly, "Brother, why don't you leave Shanghai, you can also go to Nanjing."

Luo Tongsheng lowered his head and said nothing, but from his reaction, he knew that he was unwilling to leave Shanghai.

Du Jia's eyes for help scanned the crowd, and finally fell on Chen Jia.Chen Jia waved his hands quickly, which meant that he had nothing to do.

It's useless to force a person to do something he doesn't want to.

"Why don't you go to work at my house and be a sailor on a ship, at least the income is good." Zhan Hao's family has a big business, so it shouldn't be a problem to give him a job.

Luo Tongsheng raised his head, his face was more than half swollen, and he looked a little scary, "What about my wife and children? I'm leaving, and those people won't let them go."

"It's okay, let your wife and children live in our staff dormitory, which is full of our people, and those hooligans dare not come in to make trouble."

Luo Tongsheng hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded and said: "Then thank you, young master, for your kindness, I will never forget it."

After such a toss, everyone no longer had the nature to go out to play, so they asked the hotel owner to borrow two sets of mahjong, and played mahjong in the hotel.

Chen Jia didn't know how to play, so she simply went to take a shower, and then lay down under the covers to read and memorize words.What if you can't sleep?read a book!What if you are bored?read a book.Books are the best medicine for insomnia.

After sleeping until dusk, the sound of mahjong next door kept coming and going, and the voices of several people were clearly audible.Alas, this ear is too sensitive and suffers.

Get up and get dressed, wash up and go to watch for a while, no desire to eat out, mahjong addiction, how can it be so easy to end.

Chen Jia and King Qiu Bingyi, who was watching the battle, went outside to buy food and came back. Everyone ate in a hurry and started fighting again.

The sound of mahjong clattering didn't end until midnight. Listening to their discussion, it seemed that Luo Tongsheng won the most.It seems that this guy, a natural gambler, even a mahjong master like Li Shan, failed miserably.

There was nothing to say all night, everyone got up early the next day, and today they traveled together on the Huangpu River.At this time, there is really nothing to see on both sides of the Huangpu River. Pudong is still a piece of farmland, and there are a few shipyards here and there.Apart from a few tall buildings, the Puxi Bund is just a garden, which is really meaningless.

Chen Jia rushed to the bank early in the morning, perhaps because he had rested for three consecutive days, so the bank has not opened yet, and there are already more than a dozen people waiting.

When the door opened at 08:30, everyone poured into the hall, and Chen Jia rushed to the front with quick legs.Two thousand bills bought gold and stored it in a safe with the previous gold.

It was past nine o'clock after finishing the formalities, and the sun was shining brightly, bringing warmth to the winter day.The flow of people on the street is obviously much less than during the holidays, and most of the people coming and going are working people.

After crossing two roads, I saw the place where I had coffee with Wang Wei last time.Chen Jia's heart moved, and she walked in involuntarily.

Because it was too early, there was no one in the cafe, only two shop assistants were busy wiping the tables and chairs, and a foreigner at the bar was also doing cleaning work.

"Is there any coffee and bread now?"

"Yes, we just opened the door, so it takes a little longer, 10 minutes is okay?" The foreigner is a white man in his 40s, with an unshaven beard, a red nose, and sapphire-like eyes that look unique.

"Okay, thank you."

After thanking Chen Jia, he found a seat by the window and sat down, which was actually the seat they sat that time.

Looking at the hurried passers-by outside the window, I can't help but wonder what Wang Wei is doing at the moment?Her father was a well-known calligrapher and painter in Chengli, Suzhou. She was educated by her father since she was a child, so she wrote good calligraphy.

It is said that the mother is a well-known gentry in Chengli, Suzhou, and her ancestors once produced the number one scholar, so she can be regarded as a respectable family in Suzhou.

With such a domineering family background, this woman has become a money fanatic, eating Chen Jia's and using Chen Jia's, trying her best to cheat Chen Jia's.

After entering the military academy, she doesn't spend money on food and clothing, and her monthly salary of ten yuan is far from enough. This chick is still stingy.How was this family educated?There are flaws!

After drinking the coffee, he put down the money and was about to get up and leave, but when he looked up, he saw a familiar figure from behind.What if the walking posture and hair can be recognized wrong, and the moon white cheongsam is added?What about the small bag in your hand?
Didn't she go back to Suzhou?Why are you in Shanghai again?
Chen Jia followed without stopping, keeping a distance of about 50 meters, and followed at a leisurely pace.After walking not far, she entered a building.

Chen Jia ran over quickly, just in time to see her back entering the building.Shanghai Peicheng Girls High School, a very famous middle school in Shanghai.Chen Jia often passes by at work, so he is quite familiar with him.

Chen Jia was full of suspicion, but she didn't dare to stop at the school gate. She just walked forward naturally, then crossed the road, and found a shoe-shining stall diagonally opposite the school gate.

After polishing the shoes, half an hour passed, and no one came out.Thoughts turned around, and secretly screamed that it was not good.There are three gates in this school, maybe she left through another gate.

It's definitely not possible to change places now, so just keep guarding. If she doesn't show up in an hour, it means she has left long ago.

After another four or ten minutes, many students and teachers came in and out, but there was no sign of Yuebai cheongsam.

When he returned to the hotel, the others hadn't come back. Chen Jia sat for a while, always disturbed by a feeling of uneasiness, and the back of the moon-white cheongsam was always shaking in front of his eyes.

No, I have to find her.She doesn't have a place to live in Shanghai. According to her stinginess, she won't stay in a hotel, so she can only rely on a friend's house.

She doesn't have many friends, Mrs. Yao counts as one, and Liu Jiamu's mother counts as one.No, Liu Jiamu's mother's house is too small, it's inconvenient for her to live there, so only Mrs. Yao's house is left.

Thinking of this, he couldn't sit still any longer, left a note in a hurry and handed it to the front desk of the hotel, and called a rickshaw to Mrs. Yao's house.

After crossing the Waibaidu Bridge and the racetrack, we went south to Mrs. Yao's house.

It's still early, and Wang Wei probably won't come to Mrs. Yao's house so early.I found a bookstore diagonally across the road. Looking out from the window of the bookstore, I happened to see the gate of Yao’s house through the alley, and I could clearly see the movement on the second floor of Yao’s house.

Take a book at random, move a stool, and sit in front of the window, and you are ready to fight a protracted battle.

Bookstores at this time can read books in them, and books can be bought or borrowed.Of course, all the books that can be borrowed are used books.

Chen Jia lowered his head to read the book, but was slightly taken aback, because the name of the book was "New Interpretation of Sun Tzu" and the author's name was Jiang Baili.

Speaking of Jiang Baili, he is very famous, and he can be said to be the top military expert in the Republic of China.Just look at his students, the head of state, Tang Shengzhi, Xue Yue, Bai Chongxi, Chen Cheng, Zhang Zizhong, Chen Mingshu, all of them were figures who stirred up the situation during the Republic of China.

His Theory of National Defense stated that Japan must invade China, and also pointed out the way to win.That is to exchange space for time, use the First World War in Shanghai to weaken the momentum of Japan's offensive, stick to the second line in Hunan, and fight a protracted war.

As it turned out, his predictions were right on target.The trend of history evolves according to his calculations. From this point of view, there is no other person except him.
