Chapter 702: The Scheme of Self-Inflicted Injury

The excitement of the Paramount Ballroom in the former public concession did not seem to have changed, and it was still a lively and luxurious place. The difference is that there are no foreigners in the venue, but more Japanese.

Business women should know that they would hate to lose their country, but what can they do? What can we do if we can still sing the flowers in the backyard without crossing the river? It is not easy for women in troubled times. Women who rely on their charm and beauty to socialize may seem to have abundant material resources, but it is not as easy as it seems. As the saying goes, one wrong step leads to a lifelong mistake. Dancing in the sea is a way of life. Dancers are also human beings. Who can I tell the pain in my heart to...

After chatting for a long time, Liang Zhongchun stepped forward and said, "Brother Acheng, what do you want to see me for today?"

"What you're saying is that based on our relationship, I can't have a drink with you, Director Liang Da, if you have nothing to do?" Looking at the disbelief in Liang Zhongchun's eyes, Minglou nodded and said, "I do have something I want to talk to you about. Ask around, don’t hide it from me.”

"Don't worry, we have been in contact for three years, and you still don't know who I am? Besides, although the Japanese are winning wars everywhere now, we are working for the Japanese. We still don't know what the Japanese are like now? They are strong on the outside and hard on the inside. , the decline is obvious. They went crazy again and bombed the American base. How many more years can the Japanese fight? They have been fighting for five years now. I don’t believe that the Japanese can last another five years. . If this battle is over, I will definitely have to settle the matter. Then won’t I have to rely on Commander Ming to help me? As far as I know, Minister Zhou is already secretly leaving a way out for himself. "

"What escape route?"

"Of course I'm secretly communicating with your country leader, building plank roads openly, and secretly crossing Chencang. You are from the military command, haven't your superiors told you? Given the position of Chief Ming here, he should not be at the same level in the military command. Low? You don’t know?”

Ignoring the messy idioms Liang Zhongchun used, Mingcheng frowned and said, "You mean he turned to Director Dai? How did you know?"

"Snakes have their own ways, rats have their own ways, so you don't have to worry about it." Liang Zhongchun's face was red after drinking, with his little tiger teeth exposed, and his face was unfathomable. He turned to say, "Okay, Ah Cheng Brother, tell me about your affairs. As long as I know, I will definitely keep it from you. If I can do it, I will definitely not refuse."

"Do you know what the special high school has done recently?"

"I haven't heard of any action. What are you talking about?"

He is now the director of the Intelligence Division of No. 76. The director of the operations division was later appointed by Li Shiqun, but the deputy director of the operations division is still his. Generally speaking, his power is much greater.

But also because of this, his situation is not so good. Because in his position, he has to make achievements. However, he still kept in touch with the military commanders like Minglou in private, and his contacts with the central commanders were still intact. The Red Party was fine, but he didn't dare to be too harsh. As he said, he felt that the Japanese would not last long, and if they left themselves a way out, they would not be able to offend the two parties. If there is no performance in his position, then he has no ability, and he will not be able to do it for a long time.

It was also in the past two years that he delegated power and let his subordinates do bad things, while he secretly sold favors behind the scenes. There are achievements, but no big results. I am pretty capable of sitting here until now. After all, it is not easy for a secret service like No. 76 to fish in the water, and Li Shiqun is still a mad dog and is very active in fighting with the two parties. He was very capable of dragging his feet from behind and not being killed or retreated.

That is to say, he was caught, could not survive the punishment and surrendered to the enemy. If he continued to work in Zhongtong, climbing up would not be a problem.

Of course he had to thank Wang Yan for helping Minglou while secretly saving him, otherwise he would have rotted into the mud long ago. The Japanese are not in the habit of collecting corpses from others. After shooting, they dig a hole and bury them directly. Unless too many people are afraid of the epidemic, they will have concentrated fever. This is because his status is relatively high, otherwise he would have dug the hole himself...

Mingcheng thought for a while and said in a low voice: "Think about it carefully if it has something to do with the Red Party."

"Chief Ming is the deputy director of the Special Task Force. He should be aware of any actions, right? And why is it related to the Red Party? Are you involved with the Red Party? What is going on? If you don't tell me a target, how can I know? What action?”

Liang Zhongchun asked a series of questions with a worried look on his face. He didn't like Mingcheng hiding it like this. After all, I have something to ask and I am still hiding it. This is a sign of distrust in him.

Mingcheng pretended to be embarrassed and hesitated for a while, then gritted his teeth, raised his head and took a sip of wine: "I'm telling you, you must keep it a secret."

"No, will you tell me?"

"Hey..." Mingcheng sighed and said, "My eldest sister has some dealings with the Red Party. Recently, I feel that the situation is not right. She may have been exposed, so she came to inquire about the information from you. We can have a response. Otherwise. When the Japanese come, we will be too passive. As you know, a lot of things have happened in the past two years, and we have been suspected many times. Otherwise, if something happens to Commander Ming, I will definitely be done with it. You're not much better. Without Chief Ming, if you want to make money with Wang Yan, it's all because of him."

When Mingcheng said this, Liang Zhongchun was stunned for a moment and thought about the relationship. He shook his head and smiled: "Your family is really powerful. The three brothers are military commanders, and the remaining eldest sister is also related to the Red Party. Tsk tsk..."

"Stop talking nonsense, time waits for no one, think quickly. I estimate it will be in the last one or two months, or even within a month."

"Let me think about it, let me think about it..."

Liang Zhongchun murmured, taking a sip of wine. After a while, he suddenly raised his head and met Mingcheng's probing and eager gaze, "Twenty days ago, my men arrested someone. However, he was not a member of the Red Party, but an activist. He worked in Hongyu Industrial. According to his explanation, that Hongyu Industrial was a company controlled by the Red Party. Later, the people from the Special High School took him under his wing. He left, and the files were taken away. As you know, my position is not secure. That little girl Wang Manchun has a Japanese backer, but I don’t.”

"Do you remember what it was called?"

"How long has it been? I just remember that your last name is... Lu?"

"Do you remember the characteristics of your appearance?"

"The talent was brought back, tied to a chair and whipped twice before being executed." Liang Zhongchun carefully recalled what he knew. "The man had a middle parted hair, a Chinese face, glasses, and was in his mid-twenties. Zai Hong In Yu Industry, he seems to be in charge of the warehouse. That's all I know. I think this is the most likely possibility. There is also a red man who is an editor of a newspaper, but he is very tough and doesn't say anything. He can't stand it. "Death penalty."

Mingcheng nodded and said: "Brother Liang, we are not outsiders, I will tell you first. The Japanese must be watching now, and they will definitely ask you what I am looking for you later, and you know best how to tell me. This time What happened is very unusual. If we don't do it well and I explain it to Commander Ming, then we will definitely not harm you. If you are caught, don't worry about your sister-in-law and child, we will definitely take care of you. good."

"Threatening me?" Liang Zhongchun looked at Mingcheng. For a moment, he smiled and touched Mingcheng's cup with his cup. "That's what I did. Isn't that why I contacted you at that time? I I don’t know if I can survive, but I have to let my wife and children live, and I have to leave a seed for our old Liang family. Don’t worry, I won’t betray you even if I betray Zhou Fuhai.”

He didn't say that he wouldn't betray others. After all, he had already betrayed someone once. He didn't believe it if he said he was strict and didn't betray others.

Mingcheng drank wine with him, went to find a dancer to dance, and had a great time. It was almost ten o'clock before returning to the Ming Mansion.

Neither Minglou nor Mingjing slept, so they just sat in the study. The siblings were thinking, wondering what went wrong. But they couldn't think about it, so they had to sit there. There was no other information, and it was already doomed when they thought carefully about it for the first time without success. They would not be able to think of anything for another hundred years. Especially when the incident happened to Ming Jing, she was not as rigorous as Ming Lou. She couldn't figure it out on her own, so how could Ming Lou help her figure it out.

Mingcheng's return broke the dead silence in the study. Smelling the pungent smell of tobacco, wine, and perfume that came with Mingcheng, Mingjing waved his hands unhappily: "Although it is for work, you have to pay attention. I really can't let it go." Don't worry. Just wait. I'll get you a glass of water when Axiang goes to bed."

"No, eldest sister, I'm not thirsty. Let's talk about business."

Mingcheng cleared his throat and said, "Brother, eldest sister, Liang Zhongchun told me that about twenty days ago, they captured a Red Party activist named Lu, who managed the warehouse of Hongyu Industrial. Twenty-five He is six years old, has a middle parted hair, a Chinese face, and wears glasses. Do you have any impressions?"

"I don't know." Ming Jing shook his head and said with a sigh, "But I know about Hongyu Industrial. Not only do I know about it, but it is also the company controlled behind the scenes. It does business with our family and Yonghua Industrial. Transfer Funding, transporting supplies to the Soviet area, etc., as far as I know, they are still part of our Shanghai Transportation Station. I met with them yesterday and found nothing unusual..."

Mingcheng swallowed and continued: "Liang Zhongchun said that this man was recruited after being whipped twice. He confessed that Hongyu Industrial is a red party industry..."

Hongyu Industrial is a part of the transportation station, which means that now it is not only a matter of the Ming family, but also a matter of the Red Party Shanghai Transportation Station. They have not heard any movement in twenty days, which shows that the Japanese have penetrated to an unknown extent.

He looked at the silent Minglou, "Brother, what should I do? Do you want me to contact the organization?"

Minglou shook his head and sighed: "We'll see if the man named Lu is still there tomorrow. If he is there, it means he was instigated to rebel. It also means that the Japanese dug up the eldest sister step by step from this man named Lu. "

"No, after knowing it yesterday, I observed it all day today and found nothing." Ming Jing said with certainty.

Minglou nodded: "Okay, eldest sister, you haven't had a good rest all day and night, so go to bed quickly. Now we don't know if there are people around you who have been incited to rebel. You must not expose your flaws, otherwise the Japanese will If you find out, then everything is over. You don’t have to worry, now we at least have a breakthrough, which is much better than the previous situation. "

Ming Jing took a deep breath and stood up: "I listen to you, I won't cause you any trouble at this time."

She also knew her own weight, and she couldn't handle this kind of thing.

After Mingjing left, Minglou and Mingcheng were left, analyzing various situations and preparing various responses. As the saying goes, one person is short-term, but two people are long-term. They have been doing this for many years...

The next day, Minglou sent Mingcheng to contact Uncle Li and asked Uncle Li to investigate the situation of the man surnamed Lu in Hongyu Industrial. At noon, Mingcheng received a reply that the man was still working in the company.

It was also at this time that Mingcheng received the organization's emergency contact code. After asking Minglou for instructions, he went to the contact on behalf of Minglou. The person who came told Mingcheng that the Suzhou underground party organization found two people who were turned against the party, who were related to the goods delivered half a month ago, and informed the Shanghai underground party organization to check the danger. At the same time, Mingcheng also told the contact comrades about Hongyu Industrial and asked them to be careful...

Four days later in the morning, the driver drove Wang Yan to the familiar Iwai Mansion again, went to the familiar teahouse again, and saw Iwai Eiichi and Kitagawa Kousuke, the skinny little devil again.

This time there was no extra nonsense. Wang Yan sat down, and Kitagawa Hirosuke poured tea for Wang Yan, and then went straight to the point: "Wang Sang, I wonder if you have told others what I said last time?"

Wang Yan paused to take the teacup, slowly raised his head to look at the Japanese, frowned and said: "What does Section Chief Kitagawa mean? Suspect me?"

"Of course not, Wang Sang, please don't misunderstand, it's just that there are some problems with our operations, and there are relatively few people who know the real situation, so it's just a normal inquiry."

Wang Yan sneered, looked at Iwai Eiichi who was drinking tea silently and pretending not to hear, he picked up the teacup and took a sip, and spoke with full posture: "You two know what kind of person Wang is, and he has always avoided such sensitive matters. It is to prevent today There is no way to explain such a situation. When I left, I called Minglou with the phone here, saying that I had something to do and could not keep the appointment. Instead, I found two of my subordinates to discuss some business matters. In the past few days, I have not met any of Minglou, Mingcheng and Mingjing, nor have I called them.

Oh, Minglou did call me and asked me to talk about something that we didn’t talk about last time. I think you should be clear about this. I think you are also more clear about my whereabouts and who I met, and you must have a grasp of the situation on Manli’s side. Now that something has happened, you come to ask me if I have leaked your information? Section Chief Kitagawa, I don’t feel your respect. "

Iwai Eiichi laughed and tried to smooth things over: "Wang Sang, don’t get excited. There is a problem The problem is that we should check our own people first. I know that Beichuan has only had a short time with you. Having said that, Beichuan-kun, you should be careful in the future and don't question our friends casually. It is a loss for all of us to hurt our friendship. "

"Wang Sang, I'm really sorry, I was too impatient."

Wang Yan waved his hand and frowned and asked, "Can Section Chief Beichuan tell me what the accident was?"

Kitagawa Hirosuke let out a long sigh of frustration: "Just three hours ago, Ming Jing was arrested by the No. 76 Operations Office because she had to go back to her hometown in Suzhou for something. Because military radio components were found in her convoy. The person at the checkpoint didn't know it was Ming Jing, so he directly detained everyone and sent them to No. 76 for detention. After I knew the situation, I immediately He wanted to arrest the Red Party members around Ming Jing, but he was too late. They had received the emergency retreat notice in advance and hid.

After that, Ming Lou ran into the prison and cursed Ming Jing. The frightened Ming Jing also confessed that she was not a real member of the Red Party, but just an active member of the Red Party. Then Ming Lou found me and said that Ming Jing had always been in control of the business. He didn't know what Ming Jing had done, but Ming Jing did not disrupt our actions. He just provided some financial and material support, hoping that Ming Jing could be forgiven for his sake. After finding me, he contacted Zhou Fuhai and came here to find Mr. Iwai. He even contacted Chen Gongbo, hoping to plead with Chairman Wang. "

Wang Yan nodded in understanding and instantly understood Ming Lou's intention.

This is a typical self-torture plan. Since Ming Jing has been exposed, then point it out directly. Use Ming Jing's arrest to break the current deadlock. Because they had to protect Pei Min, they didn't know about the situation in Suzhou and the people around Ming Jing. They couldn't start from the outside, so they could only act from the inside. Ming Jing was this opportunity.

Now that Ming Jing was exposed and arrested, the Red Party had a reason to decisively abandon Ming Jing and retreat. Regardless of whether Ming Jing confessed or not, they had to retreat. This was organizational discipline. With this opportunity, they could calmly deal with Ming Jing's problems and the problems in Suzhou.

Ming Jing was the helmsman of the Ming family's industry. The people at the checkpoint didn't know Ming Jing, but the others present must have known Ming Jing. This can also explain the rapid transmission of information, the decisiveness of the Red Party, and the decisive retreat, which minimized the Japanese from suspecting and pursuing in other directions.

The person who cooperated with No. 76 was Liang Zhongchun. But he was a member of the Operations Department, and the people in the Operations Department were arranged by Li Shiqun, so Li Shiqun was blamed.

But the matter obviously does not end here, this is just the beginning, because there are still spies who are "not exposed"...
