Chapter 73
On November 11, Cui Zhengyao, under the pseudonym Wang Baozhen, checked into Xinya Hotel, North Sichuan Road, Shanghai.The hotel has just opened, nine floors, very close to the Bund and Nanjing Road, within walking distance, convenient transportation, quiet amidst the hustle and bustle.Hua Kezhi's wife, Yin Pengjie (Wang Yaqiao's daughter-in-law, secretly joined the Communist Party of China through Chen Yuzhi's introduction in December 15) and Gu Zifeng also lived in it according to prior arrangements.Since the assassination incident happened, Chen Yuzhi often came to see Yin Pengjie, passed on information, and sent food and drinks. Sometimes it was too late and it was inconvenient to travel, so he borrowed her on the sofa outside.

At 3 pm the next day, after receiving the secret notice, Zhang Yuhua quietly walked into Cui Zhengyao's room, and the two greeted and encouraged each other.Cui Zhengyao said: "Jiu Ye is very concerned about everyone's safety. He wants everyone to temporarily reduce going out or contacting each other, so as to avoid the limelight of being arrested by the spies." She gave Zhang Yuhua all the 1000 yuan and asked him to try to distribute it.Zhang Yuhua took the money, took out 200 yuan, handed it to Cui Zhengyao, and said, "You also need funds... You should return to Hong Kong immediately and tell Lord Jiu that we are always at your disposal and will never be afraid!"

After exiting Xinya Hotel, Zhang Yuhua walked towards Nanjing Road, got into Xianshi Company, and then entered Wing On Company after coming out. After going out the back door, he took a taxi and circled the Bund twice. After finding no sign of stalking, he returned to the hotel in peace. Mengyuan Hotel on Hubei Road.

In the evening, Chen Wangzhi sent a bag of fruit to Yin Pengjie, and said with a disturbed expression: "As far as I know, He Poguang, Li Huaicheng and others have been arrested by the enemy. The innocent people Fu Yaodong, Zheng Shaocheng and others have also been taken away by them. Dai Li is like a mad dog, who bites anyone he sees. You are also the key target of their hunt, so be careful."

Yin Pengjie said: "Don't be afraid. If you were afraid, you wouldn't fight with them!"

Chen Yuzhi nodded, and said, "I still have something urgent to do. I have to go out. I will stay with you tonight. If I don't come back before 12 o'clock at night, you will leave immediately. Don't delay."

At night, Zhang Yuhua was not yet asleep. Hearing the noise of cars downstairs, he turned over and got out of bed. He saw a police car parked at the gate of Mengyuan Hotel, and many black figures rushed into the building with guns.He hurriedly opened the window, jumped from the third floor to the dark place, and accidentally stepped on a brick with his right foot. A sharp pain ran from his foot to his head like an electric current. ...

And Yin Pengjie was also restless, the hour hand had passed 12 o'clock, and Chen Yuzhi hadn't come back yet.What happened to him?To go or not to go?How to do?The night is cold and the people are quiet. Where can a woman rest?She walked back and forth countless times in the room without lights, from the inside to the outside.It wasn't until 3 o'clock in the morning that she finally made up her mind, turned on the floor lamp, opened half of the curtains in the inner room, and sent the pre-agreed danger signal to the companions who might come to the door; at this time, she was worried that knocking on Cui Zhengyao and Gu Zifeng's room would cause alarm Neighbors are dangerous, so she walked out of Xinya Hotel alone with a small package...

What Yin Pengjie didn't expect was that Gu Zifeng was not in the hotel, but in the detention center. At 15:1 p.m. on the [-]th, he went to the North Station to pick up He Poguang as agreed in advance. However, the train arrived several times, but He Poguang was nowhere to be seen. He looked at his watch from time to time, shook his head and sighed, looking flustered. At night, he couldn't stand the torture, so he first confessed Zhang Yuhua's residence; the next morning, he confessed the residences of Yin Pengjie and Cui Zhengyao.The secret agent got the report and immediately drove to the Xinya Hotel, where only Cui Zhengyao was caught.Dai Li was overjoyed and interrogated himself. "He used all kinds of tortures on this woman, and even ordered someone to beat her pussy with a rattan cane and prick her nipples with small needles to extract a confession." (Shen Zui: "The Dai Li I Know") Didn't tell the truth.Later, in order not to be tortured or humiliated, when she was interrogated again, she shouted: "Fengming, I'm here!" She hit the wall and died.

After Zhang Yuhua was arrested, she was sent to Nanjing Central Hospital, where she lived in room 205.Under Dai Li's coercion and lure, he confessed that Wang Yaqiao ordered the establishment of the Chenguang Society, and that Sun Fengming's assassination of Chiang Kai-shek failed to assassinate Wang Jingwei. He also confessed: "Wang Yaqiao is from Anhui, nicknamed the old nine; At the North Station, the secretary of Song Song and one of his entourage guards, Yu Likui also participated in the assassination."

Hearing that the first target of Sun Fengming's assassination was Chiang Kai-shek, Dai Li broke out in a cold sweat.Immediately, he ordered the secret agents lurking in Hong Kong to bribe the Hong Kong Police Force at any cost, and join hands with them to arrest Wang Yaqiao, Zheng Baozhen, Yu Likui and other important criminals.
