Agents of the Republic of China

Outside the ward of the Army Hospital of the Japanese Garrison in Shanghai, Yazawa Shinichi and Yuan Jianfeng had already seen Cheng Hai'an's attending doctor, and learned from him that Cheng Hai'an's trauma was not serious, but his head was thrown out of the car. After receiving the impact, it is not yet possible to know the extent of the injury, but what is certain is that there must be a concussion. Now it depends on how his condition is after waking up, and then determine the extent of his injury.

Yazawa Shinichi let out a breath of foul air, took off his general cap, put it under his armpits, and took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat from his forehead. It is undoubtedly great news for him that Cheng Hai saved his life by chance, as long as he can pry him open His mouth, the information that followed from Tokyo was in his pocket.

Yazawa Shinichi sat down on the bench in the corridor, kept kneading his sore knees, and said complacently to Yuan Jianfeng: "Yuan Sang, do you know? The Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department has sent an urgent call to confirm Nakanishi Kou, a high-level executive of the Manchurian Railway, has a major suspicion. He suspects that he is Ozaki Hidemi’s partner. As soon as I got the news, I sent someone to secretly control him. Unfortunately, I haven’t waited for anyone to contact him. But in his I've made a big discovery at home!"

Yuan Jianfeng showed a respectful expression on his face, stood up straight, and forced himself to pretend to be interested.

Yazawa Shinichi said with a grin: "As we all know, Isao Nakanishi is an atheist, but I found a Bible in his home, and there are traces of frequent browsing, and we only found one kind of newspaper in his home—— "Shanghai Daily", and coincidentally, these newspapers all have notices with the same signature. From this, I wondered if this might be a way for him to communicate with the outside world. I handed over both the Bible and the newspaper to The telecommunications department of the gendarmerie quickly deciphered the secret, and it turned out that Zhongxigong used the Bible as the source code to deliver news through newspaper notices."

"Really?" The impatience in Yuan Jianfeng's heart was instantly wiped away, but he did not expect Yazawa Shinichi to find the enemy's password so carefully. "We can make good use of Yazawa's discovery!"

Yazawa Shinichi waved his hand triumphantly, "I've thought of this a long time ago. I've already published an announcement in the newspaper with their secret code, and now I'll see if the fish will take the bait!"

Yuan Jianfeng gave a thumbs up, "Master is brilliant!"

The two laughed heartily.

"I also have a small discovery. If we follow through the investigation, we may find something." Yuan Jianfeng saw that Yazawa was in a good mood, so he opened his mouth cautiously. "The woman who committed suicide in the entrepreneurial building last time, I found a piece of music score in her hiding place, do you remember?"

Yazawa Shinichi thought for a moment, then nodded.

"I found a professional to compare, and found that this is actually a fragment of a piano score. Isn't it a strange thing that a woman who has not seen the sun is secretly learning to play the piano?"

Yazawa Shinichi raised his mouth in an arc, and gestured for Yuan Jianfeng to continue talking. "We can boldly guess that this sheet music must have been given to her by someone who is close to the woman, or someone who is very concerned about the woman, plus the box of matches from Huizhong Hotel...".

Yazawa Shinichi stood up, "That proves that this woman's contact person may be hidden in Huizhong Hotel, and may have something to do with this sheet music."

Yuan Jianfeng gave a thumbs up again, "Thank you, Master!"

……

For the past two days, Lin Xiaotang has been staying in the Jewish ghetto on Huoshan Road, for no other reason than racking his brains to figure out how to find out the information Cheng Haian hid in the Huizhong Hotel.

During the period, Lin Xiaotang had sent someone to investigate the situation there, but the result was not optimistic. A large number of spies from No. 76 and the Gendarmerie had been mixed in. Lin Xiaotang didn't know how they got the information, but one thing was certain, they had already set up Set a trap and wait for the prey to take the bait.

And the time agreed to meet with "Zhongxigong" is this afternoon.

To go or not to go, that is the question.

An Yiming suddenly invited Lin Xiaotang upstairs, and told him bluntly that he was not planning to go to Zhongxi Gong's appointment, and asked Lin Xiaotang to arrange for him and Huanyan to leave Shanghai.

Lin Xiaotang was very surprised, but in just two days, An Yiming suddenly changed his mind.

"I figured it out. It's meaningless to stay in Shanghai at this time. I can't be too selfish. Besides, Huanyan has paid so much for me, and I should get something in return." He said, looking at the windowsill with his chin resting on his face The happy face outside the window revealed a gentle smile.

Lin Xiaotang let out a long breath, "It's good if you can figure it out. Leave the matter of Shanghai to me and Mr. Tachibana. We will try our best to find information. I have already arranged the boat, and we can set off tonight. You don't need to bring anything. Luggage, all expenses will be arranged by someone."

An Yiming nodded gratefully.

During lunch, the owner of the coffee shop brought some Jewish hummus and pita bread. An Yiming seemed to be in high spirits, and found a bottle of red wine for the first time, insisting on having a drink with Lin Xiaotang.

An Yiming and Huanyan chatted all morning. Huanyan burst into tears when he heard the news that An Yiming had agreed to leave. The promise of the shopkeeper, at this point, is worth a drink to celebrate.

Huanyan swept away the gloom and sadness of the past few days, and returned to her former cheerful and lively state. She clamored to cook two dishes.

After watching her go downstairs, the smile on An Yiming's face gradually disappeared, leaving only him and Lin Xiaotang in the room.

"Mr. Lin, Huanyan is entrusted to you!"

Lin Xiaotang, who was tasting the red wine, was stunned by one sentence, "What do you mean?"

"I can't leave, my responsibilities and missions make it impossible for me to leave!" Bloodshot slowly crawled up An Yiming's eyeballs, his voice was full of pain. "Please send Huanyan away, she has experienced too much sorrow, I can't let her accompany me to face the dead end!"

Lin Xiaotang jumped up against the table, but before he stood up, he felt his body go limp, and he fell on the chair weakly. He looked at the red wine on the table, "Did you tamper with the wine?"

An Yiming nodded, "That's right, I knew you would stop me, so I made this move!"

"Do you know that you will hurt Huanyan even more!" Lin Xiaotang began to feel that his tongue was a little numb, and even his whole body had a tendency to be unable to command.

An Yiming drank the coffee in front of him, took out a palm mine from his pocket, held it in his hand, pointed the gun at Lin Xiaotang from under the table, "After so much, I already know that you are a reliable friend, But some things still need to be done by myself. These are related to my beliefs and missions, and no one can replace them. Do you know? In fact, that day, Cheng Haiyang had already told me in advance where the information was hidden. The moment was just a reminder to me that it was so chaotic at the time, and he knew of my existence in advance, so he could only choose to believe me."

Lin Xiaotang was speechless, and even the things in front of him began to blur, so he could only sit quietly and listen to what An Yiming had to say.

"I will go to the appointment, even if it is a trap. Then I will coax the enemy to go to the Huizhong Hotel, Cheng Haian prepared a smoke screen there just in case, and I will give them the false information. Really I trouble you to take it out. This encounter is a dead end, I can no longer let the victim sacrifice, now I can only go through this round! As for Huanyan, time is the best medicine for healing, she will continue from before slowly come out of the pain."

After finishing speaking, An Yiming was about to stand up, but strangely, like Lin Xiaotang, his body went limp, and he fell back into his seat, "What's going on?" His face was full of surprise.

Someone came in, locked the door, and walked slowly to the table.

Lin Xiaotang looked at it with difficulty, and stood beside An Yiming with a happy face, two lines of clear tears slowly flowing down his fair cheeks.

An Yiming wanted to raise his hand, but couldn't, and the pistol fell to the floor. "Huanyan, what did you do?"

Huanyan looked at him infatuatedly, "You asked me what I did? Then what do you want to do?"

She showed a small glass bottle in her hand, "Don't forget, we are colleagues, and I know you far better than you know me, Yoshiaki, you change so fast, I can't believe it , Fortunately, I knew you had this medicine, do you want to charm us all, and then leave without saying goodbye?"

Lin Xiaotang's mind is very clear, but he just can't speak, he can only open his eyes hard, watching every move of the two of them.

An Yiming seemed to realize what Huanyan wanted to do next, tears streaming down his face, and he kept shaking his head hard.

Huanyan walked up to him, slowly moved her body close to his arms, wrapping her hands around his neck. "When Cheng Haiyang communicated with you with lip language, I could see it clearly. So, you know it, and I know it now. I know you too well. You will go to this game, whether it is life or death. , you won’t change your mind. I was thinking of persuading you again, but I really don’t have time. Once the Japanese come and raid the city, we will implicate many people. Besides, if you wait any longer, you will will leave me."

Huanyan stroked An Yiming's cheek lightly with her hand, her originally gentle tone gradually became solemn. "So, I thought about it carefully, and decided that I should go to this bureau instead of you, and win the opportunity for you to get the information. If you die, I can't bear this pain anyway. I want to be selfish. This time, don't argue with me."

Huanyan kissed An Yiming's face lightly, and left his embrace, "This time, I'll be the chess piece for death, okay?"

Huan Yan turned to Lin Xiaotang, "Mr. Lin, thank you for taking care of me all the time, please send him out of Shanghai safely, please!"

Huan Yan bowed deeply to Lin Xiaotang, turned around and walked out of the room.
