Chapter 582 Settling in the Concession
Verify.

In fact, once you have made this inference, verification becomes extremely simple.

According to Li Qun's business in Shanghai for so many years, it is easy to verify this issue, and he can even verify it secretly.

There is no need to go through anyone or ask any questions.

This reasoning can be verified.

It only took three days for Li Qun to verify this reasoning, and Nie Hong's ability was undoubtedly recognized.

After all, there is no problem with Nie Hong's investigation ideas. According to the clues he investigated, you can indeed use your reasoning ability to reach such a conclusion.

It's difficult, but not impossible.

So Li Qun is very optimistic about Nie Hong now.

Both the organization and the military commander believed that there was no problem in telling Li Qun the news. After all, it was not a so-called secret.

But for Li Qun, getting this news has a different meaning.

Because Li Qun could learn about the Japanese attitude towards him and the attitude of the puppet government from this incident.

We can even learn about Wan Liang's situation and the level of Japanese support for Wan Liang through this incident.

This allows Li Qun to prepare in advance.

All in all, this matter may be useless to other people, but it is different for Li Qun.

Therefore, Li Qun is very sure of Nie Hong's investigative ability. If another person were to investigate this matter, he might not have such an effect.

Even if you react later, it may be too late.

Li Qun is about to start making his own preparations here.

Nie Hong naturally became Li Qun's confidant, not that Li Qun was deceived, but that Nie Hong performed very well.

Because for Li Qun, it is not just the matter of arresting anti-Japanese elements. He faces many things.

There are even many things that go far beyond arresting anti-Japanese elements, so it is very valuable for Nie Hong to help Li Qun complete those things.

A person of value is certainly worthy of being trusted.

Even Li Qun was not unprepared for Nie Hong, but felt in his heart that if the other party was an undercover agent, Nie Hong would definitely do his best if he was asked to carry out orders that had nothing to do with the anti-Japanese elements.

Wouldn't that be valuable too?

Li Qun's mind is not simple, so Nie Hong seems to have become the opponent's confidant now, but he will not be careless at all.

Nie Hong would be careful enough when dealing with people like Li Qun. He could not really trust the other party's attitude just because of his performance and so-called favor.

There can be no such thing as sincerity between them.

Therefore, Nie Hong is now relying on Li Qun's momentum and trust to become a popular figure in the secret service headquarters. He will take advantage of this opportunity to gain a foothold in the secret service headquarters. After all, he will need to obtain intelligence in the future.

If everyone thinks that he is at the top of his game, Nie Hong will be able to obtain more information.

Therefore, this matter is also very important to Nie Hong and is also ongoing.

But he wasn't worried about Li Qun knowing about this matter. Even if Li Qun knew about it, what would happen?
Isn't it normal for Nie Hong to want to improve his status?
When people go to higher places, water flows to lower places. This is not human nature.

You can't just let Nie Hong work without giving him any benefits.

The benefits obviously include status.

Regarding Nie Hong's behavior, Wan Liang was scolding him. He felt that Wan Liang had betrayed him, otherwise he would have had an extra general in his hands.

Wan Liang scolded him, but Ding Yingzhuo was quite envious.

After all, both of them were traitors. At least in everyone's eyes, Ding Yingzhuo was also a traitor.

But one person can do so well.

Ding Yingzhuo has never been able to find opportunities here, and he has no hope of getting ahead.

Ding Yingzhuo didn't know Nie Hong's identity, and even wanted to learn from Nie Hong, but he just said that Wan Liang didn't even arrange tasks for him.

It's not that Ding Yingzhuo can't complete it. You don't give him a task. How do you ask Ding Yingzhuo to complete it?

No chance.

Song Shutang in the concession did not know about this, but suddenly one day, the Japanese army entered the concession.

Occupied the Central District, Western District and French Concession of the Chinese Communist Concession.

Just so suddenly, people from the concession authorities in these places also took the initiative to cooperate and leave.

As if they all knew what was going on.

Song Shutang looked at the mess outside, while Mei Mu said from the side: "It seems everything is true."

"But it was sudden."

"I don't know what exactly happened."

"Should know soon."

Sure enough, by the evening of that day, Song Shutang and Mei Mu Zhizi received news that the international situation had changed.

The Pacific War began.

No wonder so.

Song Shutang said to Mei Mu Zhizi: "People in the patrol room, please don't move yet."

Why do you say the people in the patrol room should not move yet?
That's because Song Shutang couldn't let Li Qun know that the concession area knew about this matter in advance, otherwise you would have no way to explain why you didn't report it to the other party.

Secondly, you also did not report it to Wan Liang, so this matter cannot be exposed.

So Song Shutang had to wait.

He could not proceed to the next step until Wan Liang gave him an order, or when Mei's agency gave him an order saying that the concession area could be retained and then expanded.

Fortunately, the previous contact with the patrol officers in the patrol room was just to tell them that I wanted to establish cooperation with them.

Mei Mu Zhizi is very experienced in dealing with this kind of thing.

Song Shutang had called Wan Liang today to report on the situation in the concession. Wan Liang himself was a little surprised.

There was chaos in the concession for several days in a row, because when people from the concession authority left, someone had to come in and take over the security work.

Mei's agency also ordered that the concession area of ​​the secret service headquarters be retained, and then strengthen its strength to be responsible for the intelligence work here.

Directly change to partition.

After receiving this order, Li Qun didn't understand the Japanese's intention, which was to weaken their own power through such things.

Secondly, this coincides with his previous speculation. The Japanese intend to directly activate the concession zoning, but is it for Song Shutang?

At first glance, it was like sending benefits to Wan Liang.

After all, Song Shutang is Wan Liang's man.

Indeed, Wan Liang was a little ecstatic after hearing the news.

Wan Liang immediately called Song Shutang and asked him to start replenishing manpower immediately, and there was no need to hide in the divisions, and they could be listed immediately.

In fact, you said that Song Shutang and the others should change their office space now. After all, they no longer need to hide around.

The second is that after their personnel increase, these places are indeed not enough.

But now there are many institutions moving in, and everyone is choosing a location, but the zoning here is slow.

After all, the order from Mei Agency was issued a little late.

Song Shutang asked Wan Liang on the phone whether he wanted to choose a new place. Wan Liang told him to replenish manpower first and wait for the arrangement of the Japanese to change the place. After receiving the order, Song Shutang said to Mei Mu Zhizi: "It's time to start."

"it is good."

Mei Muzhizi had been waiting for Wan Liang's order, and then began to contact the previous patrol.

These patrol officers now understand the situation, so the job is not difficult.

And you don't have to worry about their food and accommodation now, they have a place to live here.

Therefore, it only took five days for Song Shutang to complete the expansion and add forty-two patrols.

When Song Shutang reported the news to Wan Liang, he felt good.

Now you really need to be fast or you won't be able to keep up with everyone else.

Wan Liang immediately asked Song Shutang to arrange for these people to start intelligence investigation work. After all, there were many anti-Japanese elements hiding in the concession before, and it was inconvenient for them to investigate.

Now that the Japanese troops have settled in the concession, there is nothing difficult for them to investigate. They must take this opportunity to find all the anti-Japanese elements.

Then Song Shutang will arrange for people from different areas to take charge when they go out.

Cao Xinrong and Yan Feng are also very motivated. Although they are not from Song Shutang, Yan Feng already is.

Cao Xinrong also has a strong sense of belonging now.

The second thing is that they also realize that the situation in the future of the division will be different, so there will be a lot of hope.

They were not big shots in the secret service headquarters before.

But what about partitions?
Not to mention Song Shutang and Mei Mu, Cao Xinrong and Yan Feng, their current status in the division is very high.

To put it bluntly, even if Li Qun and Wan Liang asked them to go back to the secret service headquarters, they might not be willing.

After all, the feeling of being in the subdivision cannot be given by the secret service headquarters.

And it looks like the partitions can be expanded, so the more people they manage, the more prestigious they will be in the future.

Therefore, Cao Xinrong and Yan Feng are very enthusiastic about their work here. They have already led the members of the division and the patrol officers who have just joined to launch a rigorous search in the original concession.

Song Shutang did not do it himself.

Instead, he rested in the zone with Meimu Zhizi.

Mei Muzhizi looked at the situation outside and said, "It seems to have stabilized."

"Everyone is used to the wars these days."

"I just wonder if all the people from the anti-Japanese organization have evacuated?"

"What do you think?" Song Shutang asked.

Mei Muzhizi said: "Although this news is confidential, we know, and we have also found that many people in the organization know that the anti-Japanese lurkers are also pervasive. Maybe they also received the news in advance, so they arranged the evacuation of the personnel ”

"They can even learn from the international situation." Song Shutang said.

"So it shouldn't be easy to find people now."

"Our goal now is not to find people, but to expand ourselves. I am going to go back to the secret service headquarters and apply for a change of office."

This is indeed not an office space. It was okay at first, but later it was no longer enough after the enrollment was expanded, so they found another place.

Now it is even more insufficient, so we need to move to another place where everyone can gather together. It will also be easier to work in the future.

"I'll go with you." Mei Mu said.

"Alright."

The two left the subdivision and returned to the secret service headquarters, and Song Shutang went to see Wan Liang.

Wan Liang smiled happily when he saw Song Shutang. After all, everything now was good news to him.

"Congratulations." Wan Liang said.

"It's all thanks to the director. If the director hadn't given me this opportunity, I wouldn't have been treated like this now, and I should be very happy." Song Shutang said with a smile.

What he means is to tell Wan Liang that no matter how big the partition becomes, he will always obey your orders.

So congratulations are also congratulations to you.

This was what Wan Liang wanted to hear. Seeing Song Shutang say it, Wan Liang smiled with satisfaction.

At the same time, Wan Liang said: "I heard that your work is going well."

I heard that the two words are also "beating". Tell Song Shutang that I have spies in the division. Don't forget it.

Of course Song Shutang would not forget it, so he pretended not to have heard what Wan Liang said.

He just said: "It's all the fault of the director's leadership."

"Are you coming back today?"

"My subordinates feel that the current office space is already a little stretched and there is no convenience at all. The future work will be difficult to carry out." Song Shutang expressed his appeal.

It was said before that the Japanese would make arrangements, but after waiting for so many days, there was no Japanese arrangement. Song Shutang was anxious to ask. This is understandable.

Wan Liang was also anxious.

After all, what happened here in Song Shutang was his business.

He also felt that the Japanese's order was not to preserve the partition, but to help him weaken Li Qun.

So Wan Liang said: "I'll call and ask."

Of course, Wan Liang's call was directly to Masato Kuji, and Masato Kuji actually did it on purpose.

He chose Song Shutang in advance, but he didn't want to arrange it directly, as it seemed that his purpose here was too obvious.

So he needs Wan Liang to take the initiative here.

Therefore, during the phone call, Masato Kuji said that office space in the original concession is now scarce.

After all, many people need it.

Wan Liang expressed the importance of their secret service headquarters and that no one could doubtfully replace him in intelligence work.

In the end, Jiu Si Zhengcai said that for Wan Liang's sake, he would help coordinate.

He also hinted to the other party that keeping the partition was to help Wan Liang, which made Wan Liang express his gratitude on the phone.

When Song Shutang heard this, he pretended not to hear it, otherwise Wan Liang would be extremely uncomfortable if he knew the truth.

After hanging up the phone, Wan Liang said: "Major Kuji Masato said he would help. Just go back and wait for the news."

"Thank you, Director. If it wasn't the Director, I don't know how long it would have been."

"It should."

After leaving Wan Liang, Song Shutang should actually go see Li Qun. After all, such a big thing happened.

It's just that with Mei Mu Zhizi following him today, Song Shutang definitely didn't have time to meet Li Qun, so he left directly from the agent headquarters.

Li Qun also knew that Song Shutang was back, and he even knew the situation in the concession, but he was not in a hurry.

After all, it’s hard to say who will win.

The more Wan Liang trusts Song Shutang, the more Li Qun thinks this is a good thing.

How to use it in the future.

This is one of Li Qun's trump cards, and he will definitely not show it to others easily. The moment it is unsheathed, the victory will be decided.
