Zuo Shaoqing stood outside, looking at the scene in the room, a fear gradually rose in his heart.

She saw Lieutenant Colonel McCann standing up quietly, walking to Mace with a stern face, and whispering to him.Mace nodded visibly.Both of them turned their heads and looked at Ruan Qibo who was sitting on the sofa.

At this time, a small door behind Ruan Qibo opened with a sound, and a man in black came out and stood behind Ruan Qibo.After the man glanced at Lieutenant Colonel McCann and Mace, he drew a pistol from his arms and aimed it at the back of Ruan Qibo's head.

Zuo Shaoqing was so frightened that he almost cried out.She couldn't see the camera's viewfinder clearly, she just kept pressing the shutter and scrolling the film.Then, she heard a gunshot from inside the house.Ruan Qibo fell headfirst on the floor, struggling to twist his body.Zuo Shaoqing was completely stunned.After she pressed the shutter, the film could no longer be rewound.She knew that the film had run out.

The sound of gunfire alarmed the city hall building.Zuo Shaoqing heard a commotion and running in the distance.When she turned her head again, the man in black in the room had disappeared, leaving Lieutenant Colonel McCann and Mace squatting beside Ruan Qibo. [

The commotion in the building grew louder.Zuo Shaoqing suddenly realized the danger, it was extremely dangerous.Someone must have heard the gunshots and came running here, the police or the gendarme.She must leave immediately.She turned around and ran towards the edge of the terrace. She jumped over the railing and jumped off the high terrace.She landed on a patch of grass.

She looked around carefully, no one was around.She checked her belongings to make sure nothing was missing.She stood up, quickly arranged her clothes, and then ran towards the parking lot through the darkness.She'd be better off in Lieutenant Colonel McCann's car now.Now only Lieutenant Colonel McCann's car is the safest.

Zuo Shaoqing walked through rows of cars and finally found Lieutenant Colonel McCann's car.She opened the door, sat in the car, and looked outside cautiously.

She was almost cold all over now, and her hands were trembling.Unprepared, she sees a murder.She couldn't believe what she saw, the killer actually shot Ruan Qibo in front of Lieutenant Colonel McCann and Mace.

This Ruan Qibo was specially told by Lao Huang to pay more attention to her.Ruan Qibo seems to have a good impression of both China and the Soviet Union.Lieutenant Colonel McCann muttered that the Soviets were looking for trouble, or making trouble.Captain Aben found three suspicious people who were indeed Chinese, and one of them wanted to kill her.What scares her the most is that Lao Huang has lost contact with her superiors for a month.

All these situations made Zuo Shaoqing feel confused and suspicious, and there seemed to be some huge conspiracy or trick hidden behind it.Is there any special relationship between these circumstances, or even any relationship to her.She has no idea now.

Only a few minutes after Zuo Shaoqing sat in Lieutenant Colonel McCann's car, the entire city government was in chaos.At first some people were running back and forth, shouting.Later many gendarmes came in the yard.Then, all the guests in the hall were driven out.People yelled and ran outside, toward their cars.Cars in the parking lot drove away one after another.Now, the car Zuo Shaoqing was staying in appeared.

A gendarme came up and looked into the car, gun still in hand.

Zuo Shaoqing was dressed in white, very conspicuous in the dark car.She had no choice but to take the initiative to get out of the car.She said, "Excuse me, what happened?"

The military police approached the car cautiously and asked, "Who are you?"

Zuo Shaoqing said: "I'm from the Military Advisory Group, and I came with Mr. McCann. But Mr. McCann hasn't come out yet. Please go find Mr. McCann and ask him to come out as soon as possible."

The gendarme watched her carefully, finally nodded, and walked back.

About 10 minutes later, Lieutenant Colonel McCann finally returned to the car.He also brought Zuo Shaoqing's pistol.

"How are you?" he asked, nervous and uneasy in his voice.

"Sir, I'm fine. What's going on here?"

"What did you see?" Lieutenant Colonel McCann continued to ask.

"I was in the lobby. I didn't know anyone, so I could only drink a little wine in the lobby. Then, for some reason, there was chaos in the lobby. Someone shouted, telling the guests to leave quickly. I came out. "

"What did you hear?" Lieutenant Colonel McCann was still asking.

This is a bit difficult to answer.Zuo Shaoqing was not sure if he could hear the gunfire upstairs in the hall.She said: "I didn't hear anything but the music. To be honest, I didn't pay attention."[

Lieutenant Colonel McCann started the car, turned the steering wheel and drove outside.He was silent for a while before he said: "Something happened inside. Secretary-General Ruan Qibo was assassinated."

"Who did it and why?" Zuo Shaoqing tried hard to control his voice, trying to show a little surprise.

"I don't know yet," Lieutenant Colonel McCann said. "Don't ask anything. Maybe we'll find out after dawn. I'll take you back. I'll send a car to pick you up tomorrow morning, and we can talk."

"Yes, sir." Zuo Shaoqing thought about meeting Mays at noon tomorrow, and wondered if he could make it on time.

It was past two o'clock in the morning when Zuo Shaoqing returned to the dormitory.When she waved goodbye to Lieutenant Colonel McCann, she felt very stiff all over, as if someone had driven a stake into her body.

At this time, her dormitory was extremely silent.There seemed to be invisible objects trembling in the shadows where the light could not reach, and the wind outside flapped the curtains.

Zuo Shaoqing put one hand in his handbag, holding the handle of the gun tightly.Her super senses scanned every corner of the room like a radar. After 2 minutes, her nerves gradually relaxed.She believed that, at least for now, there was no killer lurking in her room.

She took off her coat and examined it carefully under the light.There might be some dust on its snow-white fabric, but she was relieved that there was no blood.She put the clothes and the empty handbag into the cardboard box.Maybe, she thought, she should take the clothes to the laundromat and return them to Colonel McCann.

She went into the small bathroom.She believed that she must have sweated a lot when she was most nervous, but she didn't realize it.Now, she feels sticky and tired all over her body.

She took off her underwear and stood naked in front of a bright mirror.The dagger on her thigh made her feel shocking, and the gun on her ankle was even more unusually heavy.

She took off the gun and dagger and put them on a shelf beside her.She turns on the shower.When the hot water finally poured down from her head, she felt the muscles all over her body stiff and painful like cement.In the brain and in the bones, there is a chill that is difficult to get rid of.

She turned out to be the assassination target.But she couldn't figure out why.Fear and doubt swirled and howled in her heart like the wind.She scrubbed her body with a long bath towel, and her fair skin gradually turned red.After half an hour, she felt better.

She dried herself with a towel.The first thing was to stick the Walther pistol in the condyle of the ankle and the dagger in the thigh.After such a night, she dared not leave these two things even for a moment.

She wrapped herself in a towel and walked out of the bathroom.

As she lay down on the bed, she began to carefully sort out what happened today.

Where did the man lying in the trash can come from?Only by knowing this can she know where the danger comes from.She vaguely felt that he seemed to be from Taiwan.He said, "I see that's right, it's here." He spoke Chinese, with a slight Taiwanese accent.

God!That means Ye Gongjin is going to attack her!

Thinking of this, many past events flowed into her mind like water.

The end of summer in [-] was a turning point for Ye Gongjin and Zuo Shaoqing.They heard the news almost at the same time that Mao Renfeng, the director of the Intelligence Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense, was ill, and it seemed that he was still very ill.

Before that, Ye Gongjin and Zuo Shaoqing were two people who were suppressed by Mao Renfeng and left idle.

They took Yu Zhidao's transport plane back to Taipei.It didn't take long before he was deprived of his military rank and position, locked in a simple and damp detention center, and accepted severe scrutiny.The charge is abandoning the team, leaving without authorization, and violating military orders.

They all feel hopeful.It is easy for Director Mao to deal with them, or even shoot them. [

But fortunately, above the Ministry of National Defense Intelligence Agency, even above the Ministry of National Defense, there is still a Mr. Jing Guo who remembers them and takes care of them.This is not because Mr. Jing Guo is merciful, but because he hates Mao Renfeng deeply.What Mao Renfeng wanted to do must be the last thing he wanted to do.Director Mao struggled several times, but finally he couldn't beat President Jiang who was behind Mr. Jing Guo.

Half a year later, Ye Gongjin and Zuo Shaoqing were released from the detention center.Ye Gongjin got a job as a member of the National Security Council, while Zuo Shaoqing got a job as a researcher at the Intelligence Research Institute under the Intelligence Agency of the Ministry of National Defense.However, they don't have any jobs other than each having a clean desk.

They are two people with the same disease.They always stay together when they are free.But they stayed together not because of sympathy.What Ye Gongjin was concerned about was the recording hidden in Zuo Shaoqing's hands. That recording was a conversation between Metz and Ye Gongjin at the International Union Club.What Zuo Shaoqing cared about was the whereabouts of her younger sister, You Shaoqing.

There is often a question between them that will never be answered, "Shaoqing, where do you hide the recording?" "Gongjin, where is my sister?" Then they stare at each other for a long time with mutual distrust.

Their situation made them cherish each other and sympathize with each other, which made them change the names of each other.But the doubts in their hearts made them keep each other vigilant.

Such days are difficult.Ye Gongjin lost all his power.In addition to thinking about her sister, Zuo Shaoqing also lost contact with the organization.With her sensitivity, she believed that there were comrades in the Ministry of Defense, and even in the intelligence agency.But she dared not contact anyone, fearing that it would bring disaster to them.This kind of loneliness that has been cut off from the organization seems to be watching the mouse of time nibbling at her heart bit by bit.She is helpless.

During this period of time, Ye Gongjin did something Zuo Shaoqing didn't think of, learning Jinghu.

Ye Gongjin has the rank of major general and was allocated a house in a military dependents' village on the outskirts of Taipei.It is an old house left by the Japanese, with two rooms inside and outside, and a small amount of furniture.The house has a kitchen and bathroom.

It was even worse for Zuo Shaoqing, who was only allocated one "overcoming difficulties room".The so-called "overcoming difficulties housing" means "temporary housing for overcoming difficulties".There are millions of officers and soldiers who have retreated to Taiwan from the mainland, and even dragged their families with them, which requires a lot of housing.All the rentable houses in Taipei have been rented out by military officers.If you want to get a "overcoming difficulties" room in the military dependents' village, you also need to have a special relationship.
