Cheng Qianfan knew that according to organizational discipline, he should not follow Wang Jun and the other two.
However, he received news from He Guan that there had been consecutive shootings in the French Concession, especially the incident in which he, as a patrol officer, was ambushed in front of his home. All these events had aroused the anger of the senior officials of the French Concession authorities.
Ferguson, the police chief of the French Concession, was very dissatisfied with the security situation in the French Concession.
He ordered patrols to strengthen key investigations in their respective jurisdictions.
In particular, the intensity of nighttime inspections has been temporarily increased.
He was worried that Wang Jun and his two men would encounter night patrols, so he protected them along the way.
As sleeper agent 'Flame', he made the mistake of stalking his comrades.
However, as Chen Zhou of the Special Kosovo Red Team, the Special Kosovo personnel themselves have the task of protecting the safety of important leading comrades.
Cheng Qianfan was once ordered to secretly protect the municipal and provincial committees, as well as important comrades and democrats passing through Shanghai.
This time he 'escorted' the comrades of the Municipal Party Committee along the way. Broadly speaking, it did not violate discipline.
Compared to a lurker, his status as a member of Special Branch gives him the greatest degree of freedom.
It is precisely because of the special nature of the work of members of Special Kosovo that the comrades of Special Kosovo have extremely strong revolutionary will. Kuomintang agents rarely capture comrades of Special Kosovo alive...
…
In addition, the most important point is that he is currently out of contact with the organization. In this case, he joined the Kuomintang Secret Service and will go to Hangzhou for training. He needs to express his position to the organization in advance.
That's right, he joined the Secret Service in accordance with Comrade 'Zhulin''s arrangements during his lifetime.
However, in the increasingly complex struggle situation, especially with the sacrifice of Comrade "Zhulin", some things are difficult to explain clearly.
He does not want to be misunderstood and doubted by the organization.
Joining the Secret Service was Teko's work arrangement. He could only wait for Teko to wake him up, and could only report the matter to the leader of Teko.
This is related to the confidentiality of his hidden identity. Cheng Qianfan must strictly abide by discipline and cannot reveal any information about this matter to the Shanghai Municipal Committee.
However, this time he warned the organization and took the initiative to provide intelligence to the organization. This is the basic principle of a red warrior and the inner manifestation of his always being loyal to the revolution and the organization.
This is a matter of principle about loyalty and political attitude.
As for the intelligence and information that could be revealed, he now tried every means to contact the organization and report to the organization in a timely manner.
What cannot be said is strict compliance with organizational disciplines.
Just like he didn't report on the situation of getting rid of the traitor Lao Mo this time.
There was no report on the fact that the Baicao Herb Shop on Xiafei Road and the Huichang Teahouse in Chenghuang Temple were Rite strongholds.
Without him, this information is related to the death of Lao Mo and is Teko's mission.
He can consider reporting, but he cannot report today. There is a certain chance that people will associate 'Huo Miao' with 'Chen Zhou'.
Even when reporting information, there are certain considerations on how to report it.
…
"Lao Peng, what do you think about what Comrade Xinghuo said about patrolling Liu Bo, who is suspected of being a Japanese special agent?" Wang Jun asked.
Comrade Spark?
Peng and Ou smiled, and at the end of the letter, they signed it as "Xing Huo".
spark?
Is this the code name of this insider comrade?
Peng and Ou were not sure. For insider comrades who kept a high degree of confidentiality, their code names were also top secrets.
Except for their direct leadership comrades, they will not reveal their code names to anyone else.
Therefore, it is very likely that this is the code name that the insider comrade temporarily gave himself.
A spark, a spark, a spark can start a prairie fire. Peng and Ou like this code name.
"I will arrange for someone to investigate the background of this patrol." Peng Yuou said in a deep voice. He didn't believe that a person could hide without leaving any trace. There are always some clues that can be used to peek into something.
The reason why an agent hides well is because he has never been suspected. Once he is suspected, any blind spots in him will be infinitely magnified.
…
"What happened to Comrade Kang Erniu? He is also a proven veteran comrade. How could he still make such a low-level mistake!" Peng Yuou asked angrily.
"Comrade Kang Erniu has made a sincere review. He promised to strictly reflect on himself and will not make similar mistakes again." Wang Jun said quickly.
"In the short term, Kang Erniu must stay hidden and not appear in public." Peng Yuou ordered.
"I will notify him." Wang Jun agreed with this arrangement. It is difficult to ensure that the details that Comrade Xinghuo can notice will not be noticed by other interested people. The decision to temporarily reduce Kang Erniu's public appearances is prudent and correct.
"Comrade Wang Jun." Peng Yu'ou asked with a serious expression, "Do you think Comrade Liao's sacrifice had anything to do with Zhuang Ze?"
Wang Jun was stunned, "Lao Peng, why do you have this suspicion?"
"I forgot that you don't know anything about Comrade Lao Liao. Let's put it this way. Lao Liao is an old comrade of the Anti-Japanese League. After he arrived in Shanghai from outside the customs, he was assigned a special job and had very little contact with the local party organization. "
"I understand." Wang Jun thought for a moment and understood what Peng Yuou meant.
For comrades who have very little contact with the local party organizations in Shanghai and are from outside the customs, the possibility of being exposed due to the involvement of the local party organizations is extremely low. The most likely reason is that they are exposed due to reasons outside the customs.
Zhuang Ze participated in the Anti-League.
This person was arrested recently and turned traitor.
Lao Liao was also exposed and sacrificed recently.
This is too much of a coincidence.
Underground work doesn’t believe in coincidences.
"If this is really the case, this Zhuang Ze is really shameful, hateful, and deserves to be killed!" Wang Jun said bitterly.
"This matter will come to light." Peng and Ou looked sad. It was so sad that Lao Liao and his family all sacrificed their lives for the revolution.
At the same time, Peng Yuou also had a trace of confusion in his heart. If Comrade "Xinghuo" was hidden within the Kuomintang Party Affairs Investigation Office as he judged, he should have a certain chance of knowing about Zhuang Ze's rebellion and Lao Liao's sacrifice. There is no relationship between them.
Why wasn't it mentioned in the intelligence?
However, the Party Affairs Investigation Office also has its own division of labor and does its own thing. It is possible that Comrade Xinghuo does not know more inside information.
It's a pity that this comrade and the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee are not on the same line. Due to strict organizational disciplines, even as a senior official of the Municipal Party Committee, he has no right to know more.
However, facing such outstanding comrades, Peng and Ou could not help but fall in love with talents.
…
Cheng Qianfan's smoking addiction broke out.
He didn't smoke, he just held a cigarette and played with it in his hand.
This was not the three-fort cigarette he was used to smoking in the patrol room, but the Golden Brand cigarette, which was also a popular cigarette in Shanghai.
When taking action, Cheng Qianfan will be extra careful and do everything possible to separate himself from the identity of patrolling Cheng Qianfan.
He was thinking about whether there was any connection between Lao Liao's sacrifice and the traitor Zhu Yuan.
When it was confirmed that Zhu Yuan was a traitor, this thought lingered.
The two things were so close that he couldn't help but suspect.
He knew that it would be difficult to find out with his own strength, so on the letter to Wang Jun, he wrote Zhu Yuan's rebellion and Lao Liao's sacrifice next to each other.
He believed that the wisdom of the leaders of the municipal party committee would definitely be able to relate to this. The power of the organization was powerful. If he could not find out personally, the organization could definitely find out.
He did not write his speculations about these two things in the letter, also to avoid exposing the identity of the letter-writer as our party's senior agent 'Huo Miao'.
Only Huo Miao knows the identity and background of his traffic officer Lao Liao, and is most likely to connect the two things.
Trust comrades.
Doubt everything.
Be careful with everything.
This is the ultimate creed for an inside agent to successfully hide and survive.
…
The door opened, and Wang Jun and Wang Jun quietly went out into the rainy night.
Cheng Qianfan threw the cigarette he was playing with directly into his mouth, chewed it and swallowed it into his stomach. He would not leave any traces.
After the footsteps of the two people faded away, he followed quietly.
Escort these two people all the way back to their residence.
Cheng Qianfan breathed a sigh of relief. The trip back and forth went smoothly and he didn't encounter any night inspections. It seemed that the night rain made the patrol officers lazy.
On the way back from Wang Jun's residence, Cheng Qianfan saw a drunk Annan patrolman from a distance, going crazy with alcohol in the rainy night, staggering towards him.
To be precise, I heard this person speaking Annan dialect and howling like ghosts and wolves. Only a black shadow could be seen in the rainy night.
He immediately avoided it and took a detour through another road without meeting this person.
That night, Cheng Qianfan slept more peacefully than ever before.
…
The next morning, Cheng Qianfan got up very early, opened the curtains, and saw the long-lost sunshine.
I bought Liu Ada’s Chaos and was half full after eating it.
Washed my face again.
Facing the mirror of the wardrobe, the young and handsome man began to dress up.
Wearing a green cloth coat, fur-soled cloth shoes, and a pair of plain glasses.
He once went to dance at National Tongji University dressed like this. A female student described this in the school magazine:
At today's dance, I met a strange male classmate by chance. The ordinary green cloth coat put on him gave him a sublime feeling. The classmate's brows were deep and beautiful... Unfortunately, I couldn't be his dance partner...
He took off the black and white plaid scarf hanging in the corner and put it around his neck casually.
Opening the door, the hustle and bustle of the streets came to my face...
Today is a special day and he has something extremely important to do.
