Kingsman Agent in Film and Television

If Zhang Anping needed to report to Old Dai, he didn't even need to explain.

He only needed to patch it up afterwards - and because only Old Dai knew the situation, there would not be an obvious hidden danger left.

But not anymore!

The Central Bureau of Investigation also knows about this!
The expansion of the scope of people who know the truth means that this matter has become a "knot". As long as the parties involved are not all dead, this "knot" may become a bomb at any time.

This also means that the preparations Zhang Anping had previously envisioned were not safe enough.

He must contact Lao Cen immediately to discuss how to deal with this matter.

After I sent a signal to meet Lao Cen over the phone, Lao Cen responded immediately and made an appointment to meet in the hotel box in the evening.

"Old Cen, don't keep taking all the responsibility on yourself when the time comes!"

Zhang Anping sighed secretly, he was not afraid of Lao Cen's criticism. Anyway, he was thick-skinned and could withstand any bombardment. But he was afraid that Lao Cen would take the responsibility on himself and be troubled by guilt for a long time.

[I really miss the days when Lao Zheng and I covered for each other and “tricked” Lao Cen…]

After confirming the meeting time with Lao Cen, Zhang Anping saw that it was still early, so he went back to the things on hand.

The trap set for Ono Masamori has been almost completed. Under Zhang Anping's deliberate guidance, Ono Masamori has arrested six people who were released on high bail. This behavior has caused some people to worry. The bail that Minglou could "knock" out yesterday was already pitifully small.

It is estimated that after two or three days of planning, Matsumuro Yoshitaka will take action against Ono Masamori.

[I hope Comrade Jiangnan can hold on for the last two or three days.]

Zhang Anping sighed slowly.

……

In the evening, Zhang Anping arrived at the hotel where he was going to meet Cen Anyan. After entering the private room, he found that Old Cen actually breathed a sigh of relief after seeing him!

It wasn't the kind of long sigh of relief after seeing that he was safe, but more like the kind of worry that he might do something bad?

Zhang Anping was amazed and said, "Old Cen, something is wrong with you!"

Old Cen's face turned red for the first time: "I'm really afraid of you...dressing up as a woman."

The last two words were spoken softly.

Zhang Anping suppressed his laughter: "Not really! How many times have you done this? Are you still not used to it?!"

"Today is different." Lao Cen said with a gentle look on his face that Zhang Anping had never seen before, which made Zhang Anping even more curious:
"How are they different? If you don't explain clearly, hehe..."

Zhang Anping pretended to be threatening.

Lao Cen didn't want to hide it from Zhang Anping, so he showed a shyness that Zhang Anping had never seen before, and then said:
"I'm going to meet your sister-in-law later."

what?
Ok?
Zhang Anping was surprised: "You are married?"

Although he called Cen Anyan Lao Cen, Lao Cen was not old. When he first met Lao Cen in 31, Lao Cen was still a delicate "calf" - Lao Cen was only 24 years old at that time!
Eight years have passed in a flash, and Lao Cen is only 32 years old.

In fact, Lao Cen looks pretty good, just a little bit worse than him, which is why Zhang Anping created a character for Lao Cen.

He was also thinking of waiting for the victory of the Anti-Japanese War to find a matchmaker for Lao Cen!
I didn't expect Lao Cen got married?!

"My husband and I went to the Soviet area during the first anti-encirclement and suppression campaign. Because I had connections in Shanghai, the organization later sent me to work in Shanghai."

Cen Anyan's simple explanation:

"Your sister-in-law stayed in the Soviet area. After the failure of the fifth anti-encirclement and suppression campaign, your sister-in-law did not follow the main force to move on the Long March because she was taking care of the wounded. That was when I lost contact with your sister-in-law."

Cen Anyan sighed and continued, "Comrade Jiangnan was arrested for carrying a huge amount of deposit certificates. Comrades from the Southern Jiangsu base were worried that there was something wrong, so they sent an investigation team to Shanghai to investigate. I also met your sister-in-law yesterday when I met with the comrades from the investigation team."

"Your sister-in-law told me that she later switched to underground work, but because she was exposed she had to evacuate and join the guerrillas. After the guerrillas were reorganized, she joined the First Detachment. Last year, she followed the First Detachment to the north to open up the Southern Jiangsu base."

Although Lao Cen said it calmly, Zhang Anping could imagine the risks involved - a female comrade, taking care of the wounded after the Long March, and then entering the cruel underground front, and later being exposed and evacuated, the risks involved can be imagined!

"Sister-in-law is as brave as any man!" Zhang Anping gave a thumbs up, but then he had to remind her: "Old Cen, your relationship with sister-in-law...cannot be disclosed now!"

Such a reminder is actually cruel for a couple who have lost contact for five years.

But that's what the underground front is like.

"I know." Lao Cen nodded seriously and explained: "The situation between your sister-in-law and me is only known by the superior leader of the investigation team! He also took care of Xiaoying and me and specifically asked Xiaoying to meet with me tonight."

This was why he breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Zhang Anping was not wearing women's clothes - when Zhang Anping was wearing women's clothes, the smell of perfume on her body was very strong, and he didn't want his lover, who had lost contact with him for five years, to smell this smell when they met next time.

Although his lover wouldn't say anything due to the nature of his job, he didn't want to!
"Our superiors are really considerate." Zhang Anping sighed, but then smiled bitterly in his heart. He was afraid that the following content would make Lao Cen lose the heart to be intimate with his lover.

Cen Anyan stopped the topic - the reason why he wanted to talk about private matters was because of the special nature of Zhang Anping's work behind enemy lines, and he didn't want such a comrade to think that he was hiding something from him.

Now that he had spoken, he got to the point:

"Anping, after confirming Comrade Jiangnan, the investigation team of Sunan believes that the most critical thing now is to obtain the location of the bearer deposit certificate from Comrade Jiangnan to avoid the most serious consequences. Do you have a way to let someone meet Comrade Jiangnan?"

Cen Anyan's words were cruel, but there was nothing that could be done about it. The superiors had to ensure the safety of the funds.

63 yen, equivalent to US dollars!

This is almost equivalent to the total amount of transfers Zhang Anping made during his stay in the United States!
Converted into legal tender, it would be over 2 million - it is true that legal tender is seriously depreciating now, but over 2 million is not a small sum after all!

Zhang Anping did not answer, but asked: "How many people know about this money?"

Cen An-yan didn't understand what he meant, but he still answered: "Only one person in the Shanghai underground party knew about it, and the five core comrades of the investigation team in the southern Jiangsu base area all knew about it."

Zhang Anping couldn't help but gasp and asked again:

"What about the Sunan base? How many people know about it?"

"I'm not sure, but I guess the comrades in the leadership team should all know about it. But they don't know the source. Anping, what's wrong?" Cen Anyan looked at Zhang Anping with a bad feeling in his heart.

Zhang Anping felt a toothache after hearing this.

At first, he thought he only needed to deal with Old Dai. He had learned that the Central Bureau of Investigation had intervened, which made things more difficult, but Zhang Anping didn't have a headache. But now he found that there were more people in the know.

That would be a big trouble!
Under the original circumstances, Zhang Anping could explain the origin of the money as Jiang Sian's money.

But it’s no longer possible now, because many people in the underground party and the New Fourth Army knew about it. Once it is leaked, it will be easy to match it with the money here - then the question is, since you said it was Jiang Sian’s money, why did it appear in the hands of the underground party?

Could it be that this money was given by Jiang Sian to the underground party?
Let's go a little deeper. Why did you, Zhang Anping, get the money given to the underground party from the underground party?

Once this bomb explodes, it will be enough to blow Zhang Anping to pieces!
(By the way, I hadn't thought of this before. I discovered this bug while writing, so I had to revise the article. The previous chapter was directly wasted. Woohoo... Please comfort me with monthly tickets.)
Of course, the scope of people who know about it is not large, and the possibility of leakage is not great, but what if it happens?
Zhang Anping's identity cannot withstand this eventuality.

Seeing that Zhang Anping looked strange, Lao Cen had to ask again:

"Anping, is there something wrong?"

Zhang Anping smiled bitterly and told the story:
From passing clues to Comrade "Jiangnan" through the channels of the Military Control Commission, to Comrade "Jiangnan" misunderstanding the identity of the Military Control Commission's spy, to the damn Lu Qiaoshan "running away with the money", and finally to the secret struggle between the Military Control Commission and the Central Control Commission that led to the imminent arrival of the Central Control Commission's investigation team, he told Lao Cen everything.

As Zhang Anping spoke, Lao Cen's face began to change from red to pale. When he learned that the Central Bureau of Investigation had taken Lu Qiaoshan away, his face turned pale.

When he learned that the Central Bureau of Investigation had sent an investigation team to Shanghai, Lao Cen's body began to shake involuntarily.

At first, he felt bad about this huge sum of money, because it meant that even if Zhang Anping finally got the money, it would be in the account of the Military Control Commission and would have no chance of reaching the underground party.

But in the end, he realized the seriousness of the problem and realized that this matter was equivalent to burying a mine next to Zhang Anping that could explode at any time. This result was even more difficult for him to accept.

He blamed himself so much that he was ashamed to face anyone and wanted to end it all!

His hands couldn't help but tremble, and he took great effort to say in a hoarse voice: "Anping, do you have any ideas to break the deadlock?"

Old Cen was totally at a loss at this point. He was experienced, but this incident hit his weak spot.

In Lao Cen's opinion, Zhang Anping's safety is more important than his own life. However, due to his own "negligence", Zhang Anping is in an extremely dangerous situation. He believes that Zhang Anping can handle the Central Investigation Team, but what if something goes wrong with the New Fourth Army or the Southern Jiangsu Investigation Team?

Once known by the Nationalist government, Zhang Anping's identity will definitely be exposed!

[I shouldn't have let Anping get involved! ]

Zhang Anping frowned in thought. The suffocating silence made Lao Cen unable to help but clench his fists. He hated himself.

"What if...what if Katyusha got the money?"

Zhang Anping expressed his sudden idea.

Cen Anyan forced himself to calm down and started to think along the lines of Zhang Anping.

Because of a leak, Dai Chunfeng knew the code name "Katyusha". The Shanghai District also had a mission, which was to find "Katyusha" who provided funds to the underground party.

It is known that "Katyusha" is an underground party, so what Zhang Anping did was to seize the funds from the underground party.

Following Zhang Anping's words, Cen Anyan said, "Then Comrade Jiangnan must be the one you instigated to rebel?"

Zhang Anping continued: "I persuaded Bian Jike to defect through a secret line. Bian Jike was sent to Shanghai by the Su Nan base. He obtained this bearer Japanese yen deposit certificate from Katyusha, but before he could give it to me, he was implicated in the Japanese capture and arrested."

Cen Anyan was delighted:
"And then what happened next? It makes sense! It all makes sense now!"

Zhang Anping frowned and said, "But if that's the case, Bian Ji will have to bear the infamy of a traitor."

"Anping!" Cen Anyan said in a deep voice:

"This is already the best possible outcome! I know this is unfair to Comrade Jiangnan, but we have no other choice!"

Then he said, "Comrade Jiangnan has rich experience in fighting behind enemy lines. It's a good opportunity for him to join the Military Control Commission. With him around, he can serve as a bridge between you and me. What do you think?"

Zhang Anping sighed. This was all that could be done.

Then he said, "Then we have to perfect Katyusha's identity. We have to prepare how Bian Ji contacted Katyusha and how he obtained this huge deposit certificate."

Cen Anyan thought for a moment and said, "How about arranging the handover process with Comrade Mingjing as the core?"

"We can 'cut off' the clues, but if the Military Control Commission re-investigates in the future, this clue will be useful after all. What do you think?"

Zhang Anping thought about it and agreed with Cen Anyan's statement - he had two firewalls, Mingjing and Zeng Moyi. Mingjing was the first firewall, which met all the conditions of "Katyusha" and could be used to attract attention at critical moments.

As a member of the Anti-Communist Committee, a staunch anti-communist and a big spy, his plan to target Katyusha would not arouse suspicion in any way.

Cen Anyan breathed a sigh of relief, the biggest trouble was solved.

But he couldn't help but think of this huge amount of money, and his heart ached terribly.

Cen Anyan sighed and said in a hoarse voice: "After all, this matter is my responsibility. I shouldn't have rashly handed over this deposit slip to Comrade Jiangnan under such a serious situation. I will review it to the organization and take all responsibilities. Anping, if...if I withdraw, I hope you will respect the new comrades..."

Zhang Anping interrupted Cen Anyan:

"Comrade Cen Anyan, I hope you understand one thing. I am the highest leader of the No. 2 Intelligence Group. I will explain to my superiors how to deal with this matter. Before there is a clear instruction from my superiors, I hope you will not maintain a negative attitude. Do you understand?"

Cen Anyan knew that Zhang Anping was taking the responsibility. He wanted to refuse, but before he could say anything, Zhang Anping said:

"Old Cen, there are two things that need to be resolved now."

"First, you must not tell the investigation team in Sunan about the deposit certificate for the time being. You can report to the investigation team after the Central Bureau of Investigation arrives and confirm to the investigation team that Bian Jike is a 'traitor'. Is that ok?"

"Ah."

"Secondly," Zhang Anping sighed, and then said, "This deposit receipt has attracted so much attention from the comrades in the Southern Jiangsu base. I guess the situation in the Southern Jiangsu base is not good. I will find a way to raise a batch of supplies for the comrades in the base. After confirming Bian Jike's identity as a 'traitor', you must ensure that the communication between me and the comrades in Southern Jiangsu is smooth, so that the comrades in Southern Jiangsu can take away the supplies."

Cen Anyan asked worriedly, "You probably don't have any funds available right now, right?"

"Don't worry, it will be here soon." Zhang Anping smiled mysteriously.

[You damned Central Bureau of Investigation ruined my plans at a critical moment. If I don’t give you a good beating this time, I will change my last name to An from now on! ]

An Zhangping swore fiercely in his heart. (End of this chapter)
