spy sea tide life

Go down the stone steps of Luojia Lane and you will see a small river in less than 200 meters.

The creek is not wide, and there is a stone arch bridge over it. There are several vendors under the bridge, busy doing food business.

It was evening and the sky was getting slightly dark. Many people were eating at the food stalls, and it looked quite lively.

The stall that does the best business is the one selling dandan noodles. The stall owner looks to be in his forties, with a white cloth wrapped around his head and wearing blue cloth trousers and a jacket. He is busy standing in front of the stall.

It is called a stall, but in fact it is just a shoulder pole. On one pole is a stove with a soup pot on it, and in the other pole is noodles, pre-beaten meat sauce, and various seasonings. You can smell the aroma from a long distance away.

Cao Youguang, Yang Denghuan and Ah Qi were sitting around a small square table with three small stools under their butts, three bowls of steaming dandan noodles in front of them, and a plate of braised pork. There was no sense of incongruity at all.

"The noodles here are good. I often bring Ah Qi here to eat, so we chose No. 31 Luojia Lane as our base." Cao Youguang said while eating noodles.

"You mean Dandan noodles came first, and then Luojia Lane came into being, is that right?" Yang Deng said with a laugh.

"You can say that. If it weren't for this bowl of dandan noodles, who would have known that there was such a big yard upstairs!" Cao Youguang said with a smile.

"I think it's not good for us to be called "Waiyi" all the time. We should have our own code names." Ah Qi suddenly said from the side.

"What Lao Qi said is right. Having a code name will make it easier for us to call each other and it will also enhance confidentiality. This is a good suggestion, and I second it." Yang Denghuan said seriously.

"Who is the Seventh Brother? You are the Seventh Brother!" Ah Qi said dissatisfiedly.

"I'm not the seventh, I'm the sixth." Yang Deng said with a smile.

Cao Youguang ignored the bickering between Lao Qi and Lao Liu and nodded slowly. He thought that Ah Qi's suggestion was good. If they had a code name, it would keep the secret, keep it mysterious, and help spread the name of the group. It would kill three birds with one stone, which was really a good thing.

Thinking of this, Cao Youguang said excitedly: "This is great! This is great! Why don't we decide on a name today? From now on, we will use this name in a unified manner!"

When Yang Denghuan heard Cao Youguang's agreement, he excitedly said loudly, "I have it, I have it!"

"What do you have?" Cao Youguang glanced at Yang Denghuan and said.

"Our code name! This code name is so loud! It feels so cool to say it out loud!" Yang Denghuan said proudly.

"Tell me, what's the code name?" Cao Youguang asked excitedly.

I have to say, although Yang Denghuan is not usually serious, but once he is serious, he can hit the nail on the head!
"I think our code name can be..." Yang Denghuan, who had been speaking in a low voice, suddenly raised his voice and said, "Dan Dan Noodles!"

When the stall owner heard Yang Denghuan shout out the words "Dan Dan Noodles", he didn't know what he wanted, so he quickly came over and asked with a smile, "What else do you want?"

"We don't want fools." Yang Denghuan shook his head seriously and sent the stall owner away.

Cao Youguang kicked Yang Denghuan hard from below, but Yang Denghuan was prepared and dodged it by raising his leg.

"What nonsense! Why is it called 'Dan Dan Noodles'? Why not call it 'Red Oil Wonton'?" Cao Youguang said unhappily.

"It's not impossible..."

Before Yang Denghuan finished speaking, Cao Youguang raised his chopsticks and pretended to hit him.

"No, listen to me! Didn't you say that 'Dandan Noodles' came first and Luojia Lane came later? So it's better to call it 'Dandan Noodles'! The meat sauce is the most expensive in 'Dandan Noodles'. You are the boss, so why not give it the code name 'Meat Sauce', I'll give it the code name 'Green Vegetables', and Ah Qi will give it the code name... 'Bean Sauce'! What do you think..." Yang Deng said with a smile.

"What do you think? I'll beat you up, what do you say?" Cao Youguang raised his chopsticks fiercely.

"I think it would be better if we could codename it 'Luojia Lane'. What do you think?" Ah Qi suddenly said from the side.

"This..." Cao Youguang stopped his chopsticks in mid-air, thought for a moment, and shook his head, saying, "It doesn't seem right. This will expose our position!"

At this point, Cao Youguang frowned and said, "I think it's better to do this. Luojia Lane won't work, but we can use the house number 'No. 31' as our 'code name'."

"That's right. As the team leader, you don't tell us anything but make us talk nonsense. You even beat us up if we don't tell the truth. Are you the kind of person like you?" Yang Denghuan said aggrievedly.

Cao Youguang made up his mind, waved his arm vigorously, nodded and said, "It's settled. Our code name is 'No. 31'. We can use this to replace the real name of our group."

Yang Denghuan laughed, turned around and grabbed Ah Qi by the collar. He was also stunned, and said in disbelief: "Hey, how did you catch him?"

"What are you doing!" Ah Qi said with a red face.

"I'm number 31. Would you like to go with me?" Yang Denghuan said viciously.

Just as Ah Qi was about to speak, Yang Denghuan interrupted him and said, "Hurry up and tell me 'Where are you going?' I said, 'You'll know when you get there' and then I sneered, and that was it."

Ah Qi chuckled and pushed Yang Denghuan's hand away. He glanced at him and said, "Can you behave yourself?"

"You kid, this is a very serious matter, but you have made it unserious." Cao Youguang said unhappily.

"31 or not, we have to finish this case first. Otherwise, if the boss is unhappy, our No. 31 might be disbanded just after it was established. That would be a bit bad!" Yang Denghuan said lightly on the side.

In fact, Yang Denghuan's words were quite frivolous, but Cao Youguang was a little stunned, and said slowly: "Yes, so our first shot must be fired!"

"Yes! Let's talk about the case! If No. 31 wants to be No. 31, he has to solve the case! Capture Shadow! Protect the warehouse of No. 0! Time is running out, brothers! It's urgent..."

Yang Denghuan wanted to say more, but Ah Qi glanced at the helpless Cao Youguang, nudged Yang Denghuan with his elbow and said, "Are you done yet?"

Cao Youguang looked very humble. He just smiled and said, "Deng Huan, what do you think about this?"

"These are my lyrics, and I am the detective... Lao Cao, what do you think about this?" Yang Deng asked with a smile.

"I..." Cao Youguang was stunned.

"What I mean is, who do you think is the key among these suspects?" Yang Denghuan stopped joking this time and asked seriously.

"Jiang Xianmin." Cao Youguang answered without hesitation.

Ever since leaving the Correctional Service, Cao Youguang has actually been thinking about this issue.

Huang Tao didn't look like an undercover agent at all, and from Cao Youguang's point of view, there seemed to be no lies in what he said.

Especially when Huang Tao saw Su Na's appearance, Cao Youguang gave up his suspicion of him.

Huang Tao's attitude when he met Su Na was too calm. If he was not deliberately pretending, Huang Tao probably did not know Su Na.

If a person suddenly sees his relatives in a foreign country, his first reaction will inevitably be shock!
But Huang Tao did not have this reaction. And Cao Youguang saw Huang Tao's expression at that time very clearly. It was not that he did not look at Su Na, but after looking at her, his expression was natural. This meant that Huang Tao should not have seen Su Na before.

In this case, the possibility that Huang Tao is a "shadow" is greatly reduced.

In addition to Huang Tao, there are two other people who are currently suspected and may be the "shadow".

One of them was Jiang Xianmin, a handyman in the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs. Cao Youguang believed that this person was the most suspicious.

It is not unreasonable to think so. According to Huang Tao's narration, whether Huang Tao was in the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs or was forced to leave the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs, this person's shadow was everywhere!

There may be some coincidences here, but they are definitely not all coincidences!
People like Cao Youguang don’t believe in coincidences at all!

There must be a controlling hand behind all the coincidences!
Another suspect cannot be ignored.

The person who informed the mountain goods store, now it seems that the man in the gray windbreaker who came and went mysteriously, is most likely the messenger.

If the man in the grey windbreaker is the informant, even if he is not the "shadow", he is still related to the Japanese spy!
In just one day, so many clues were captured, which made Cao Youguang excited and full of energy. He always wanted to go to the street to find a Japanese spy for a life-and-death battle.

Therefore, Cao Youguang slurped the noodles even faster, and looked at Yang Denghuan more eagerly, even more than Ah Qi.

"Don't look at me like that, I'm serious." Yang Denghuan said without raising his head, which actually made Ah Qi blush inexplicably.

"No, I've already said it. What do you think? Just give me a definite answer!" Cao Youguang said somewhat dissatisfiedly.

"Everything can only be confirmed after we get new clues, but what we need to prepare for now is the press conference of Suna and Wang Dazui tomorrow." Yang Denghuan put down his chopsticks and said.

"Aren't you going to not attend their press conference?" Cao Youguang asked in surprise.

"I said I wouldn't participate, but I didn't say I wouldn't take part," Yang Denghuan said confidently.

"Is there any difference if you don't participate...if you don't get involved?" Cao Youguang asked.

"Is it the same?" Yang Denghuan asked back.

"What exactly do you mean? Say it quickly, and let's go home and sleep. You've been on the boat for several days, aren't you tired?" Ah Qi said, nudging Yang Denghuan with his elbow again.

"Yes, yes, yes, go home and sleep quickly! Don't say anything to him." Yang Denghuan said with a smile. Ah Qi blushed when he heard it, but didn't say anything.

"Then tell me quickly!" Cao Youguang urged.

"Tomorrow, there will most likely be problems at Su Na and Wang Dazui's press conference." Yang Denghuan said lightly.

"I've considered it and taken precautions." Cao Youguang nodded and said nonchalantly.

"Not thorough! That's just routine precaution!" Yang Denghuan said.

Cao Youguang was startled, put down his chopsticks and looked at Yang Denghuan.

"Boss, give me a bowl of wonton with red oil!" Ah Qi suddenly shouted to the stall owner, speaking fluent Shancheng dialect.

"Aren't you from Shanghai? Shouldn't you order vegetable and meat wontons? Why do you want wontons?" Yang Denghuan glanced at Ah Qi and smiled.

"I'm fine with anything, you guys are too nagging, be careful or the immortal will jump up!" Ah Qi said unhappily.

"Look how anxious you make others! If you have something to say, say it quickly. If you have to fart, fart quickly! Everyone is in a hurry to go home!" Cao Youguang said.

"Okay! Don't interrupt me when I'm talking later!" Yang Denghuan said as he slammed his chopsticks on the table.

"No problem! Hurry up! Tell me if you have any ideas, and I'll take over!" Cao Youguang also stopped and said.

“We Chinese have a saying…”

As soon as Yang Denghuan said this, Cao Youguang immediately became dissatisfied and said quickly: "What do you mean by you Chinese..."

"You said you wouldn't interrupt me! What does that mean?" Yang Denghuan was very dissatisfied.

"Nonsense! If I don't interrupt you, you will treat me as a Japanese!" Cao Youguang said with his eyes wide open.

Yang Denghuan laughed and pointed at Cao Youguang and said, "You're still quibbling over words. Aren't they all the same?"

"Nonsense, how can it be the same! When you say 'we', it includes you and Ah Qi, what about me?" Cao Youguang said relentlessly.

"See! You understand this very well! Why do you have to squeeze in between us?" Yang Denghuan said jokingly.

"We were having a good chat, but in a moment you've lost your composure! You won't even let me finish a bowl of wonton!" Ah Qi glanced at the two men and said unhappily.

"We, we Chinese are not good enough!" Yang Deng changed his words with a smile.

"I find that you are becoming more and more unruly! After all, I am your superior! Do you find it fun to interrupt me every day?" Cao Youguang muttered.

"We Chinese have a saying, 'The first vinegar is not sour, the second vinegar is strong', so the first time is very important! Many people attach importance to the first time! From this point of view, there is a high possibility of danger when Suna and Wang Dazui hold their first press conference tomorrow! I am worried that the press conference will not go well and turn into a memorial service, then we will be doomed!" Yang Denghuan said carelessly.

Cao Youguang nodded repeatedly, then frowned and said, "No, our enemy is the Japanese!"

"Yes! Those who can come here to work as spies must be experts on China! When it comes to Chinese culture, they may be much better than ordinary Chinese people!" Yang Denghuan said.

"That makes sense! That makes sense! It seems that our preparations for tomorrow are still not sufficient!" Cao Youguang said with a frown.

"Let's split into two groups." Yang Denghuan picked up a pair of chopsticks and gestured on the table, saying, "Old Chen will take charge of the inside of the venue, and Ah Qi and I will be in charge of the outside of the venue. Give them a double alert. If any Japanese spies show up, we will make sure they never come back!"

After Yang Denghuan finished speaking, he threw the chopsticks on the table.

Cao Youguang hesitated a little, and Yang Deng laughed and said, "There are probably people from their side at the dock today, so tomorrow's press conference is the best time for them to take action!"

At this point, Yang Denghuan smiled calmly and continued, "Only one day later, the traitor was beheaded and killed in public, which serves as a warning to other people who want to surrender. This is such a great thing! I don't believe the Japanese spy will give up this opportunity!"

Cao Youguang looked at Ah Qi, who nodded slowly.

"That's fine! But it's enough for Ah Qi to be in charge of the sidelines..."

Before Cao Youguang could finish, Yang Denghuan said quickly: "That's why I asked to participate! How can I be absent from such a great achievement!" (End of this chapter)
