Xu Dalong said: "Brother Wang, you don't hesitate to offend your colleagues in the Guo Army for my brother. I don't know how to repay this friendship. Since you treat me as a brother, shouldn't I be a filial brother to my brother?" Please accept this small kindness."
Seeing Xu Dalong's sincerity, the general smiled and said: "Okay then. If you treat me as your eldest brother, then I won't be polite." After saying that, he took the 10,000 ocean bill of exchange.
After the banquet, Xu Dalong said goodbye to General Wang, saying that he would return to the Mawu Mountain base soon. When passing by Zhongtiao Mountain, he would say hello to General Fu on behalf of Brother Wang.
General Wang was very happy and repeatedly said that if Xu Dalong needed help with anything in Guofu, just contact him and he would do his best.
General Wang really felt that Xu Dalong was a good friend worth dating. He took off his gun, which was a customized Browning pistol. The handle of the pistol was made of silver and looked very exquisite.
He gave the gun to Xu Dalong. Xu Dalong was very happy and expressed his gratitude to General Wang again.
General Wang was a little reluctant to leave Xu Dalong. When parting, he not only shook hands with him, but also hugged him.
Xu Dalong came to the office of the Chongqing underground party's anti-Japanese armed forces.
Staff Officer Gao has reported to the head of the underground party. He highly praised Xu Dalong's outstanding performance in the military academy.
The person in charge of the office was very happy after hearing the report. After meeting Xu Dalong, he fully affirmed him.
He said: "Xu Dalong, your performance in the military academy this time is very good, and you have maintained the reputation of the underground party's anti-Japanese armed forces. The director of education of the military academy called the office to express his gratitude, and thanked the office for recommending such an outstanding person to them. talents, saying that your lectures on guerrilla tactics have improved the teaching level of the military academy, and I suggest that the underground party’s anti-Japanese armed forces commend you.”
The person in charge of the office said that he would report Xu Dalong's performance to his superiors and apply for awards for Xu Dalong.
Xu Dalong said goodbye to the person in charge of the office and Staff Officer Gao, and left the office.
But he did not return directly to the Mawu Mountain base. Instead, he called Yang Xinwu and checked into a hotel arranged for him by Yang Xinwu.
Xu Dalong will stay in Chongqing temporarily, he has other things to do.
Although Lin Xueying was at home, she always missed Xu Dalong.
When Xu Dalong went to the military academy, Lin Xueying secretly asked someone to inquire about Xu Dalong's situation in the military academy. At the beginning, when she learned that Xu Dalong was being made things difficult for him at the military academy, she was very worried about him. She wanted to accompany Xu Dalong right away.
However, due to her somewhat embarrassing status, she restrained her impulse and just secretly prayed that Xu Dalong could get through the difficulties smoothly.
When Lin Xueying heard from her friends that Xu Dalong had performed well in the military academy, she was very excited and shared the good news with her parents.
Lin Hanmin and his wife both felt that Xu Dalong was an extraordinary talent and wanted to meet him.
Lin Xueying had been estimating the itinerary of Xu Dalong and others. She learned that Xu Dalong had left the military academy and knew that Xu Dalong would return to Chongqing soon, so she had been looking forward to Xu Dalong's call.
The phone in Lin Xueying's room was connected to the phone at home. Every time the phone rang, she couldn't wait to answer it. As a result, the calls were always for her father or mother, which disappointed her again and again.
That afternoon, the phone rang again.
Lin Xueying immediately answered the phone again, and what came over the phone was the familiar voice she had been waiting for.
Xu Dalong said: "Is this the Lin Mansion? Please, I want to talk to Miss Lin to answer the phone."
Lin Xueying said quickly: "Brother Dalong, I am Xueying. Where are you now?"
Xu Dalong said: "Xueying, I'm at the hotel now. How about this, you wait at home, and I'll pick you up right now."
Lin Xueying was very happy. After putting down the phone, she hurriedly dressed up in front of the mirror. She even put on a dress that she was most satisfied with. Then she came to the gate of her courtyard and waited for Xu Dalong to come over.
Soon after, a black Volvo sedan drove over, driven by Xu Dalong, and the sedan was provided to him by Yang Xinwu.
He saw Lin Xueying standing by the gate and stopped the car.
He didn't get out of the car, but stuck his head out of the car window and said, "Xueying, come on up."
Lin Xueying was very happy and trotted all the way. The heels of her high heels hit the ground, making a crisp and cheerful tapping sound.
After Lin Xueying got in the car, she sat directly in the passenger seat.
Xu Dalong looked at Lin Xueying. This was the first time he saw Lin Xueying in casual clothes.
Lin Xueying went to the barber shop to get a perm. Her hair was bent into small waves, making her look slightly playful. She was wearing a light blue dress, which highlighted her fair skin. Wearing a pair of white high heels on her feet, she looks slim, elegant and generous.
Xu Dalong praised sincerely: "Xueying, you are so beautiful!"
Lin Xueying was very happy to be praised by Xu Dalong. She asked with a pun: "Brother Dalong, do you like it?"
Xu Dalong nodded and said, "I like it."
In fact, Lin Xueying really wanted to know whether Xu Dalong liked her outfit or the person she was. She really wanted to ask further, but she was a reserved girl and was afraid of hearing answers she didn't want to hear, so she didn't continue. Asked further.
She said: "Brother Dalong, there are many delicious foods in Chongqing. I will take you to taste them."
Xu Dalong smiled and said: "We thought of going together. You are the landlord here, so I will listen to your arrangements."
Lin Xueying said angrily: "What kind of landlord? It's such an ugly thing to say."
Xu Dalong smiled and said: "I haven't gone to school, but I just heard that as a local, entertaining guests from outside is called doing your best to be a landlord. If you want to entertain me, what are you other than a landlord?"
Lin Xueying sighed and said, "You know how to lie and say that you have never read a book. With your knowledge, even if ten doctors are tied together, you are no match for you."
The two of them were chatting and laughing, and then came to the Sichuan and Chongqing Hotel, which was very famous in Chongqing at this time. Xu Dalong was wearing a fitted suit, and Lin Xueying took Xu Dalong's arm and walked into the hotel.
They went up to the second floor and sat at a table by the window. Lin Xueying was already familiar with Xu Dalong's taste, so she ordered some of his favorite dishes and a bottle of expensive red wine. The two chatted happily.
Lin Xueying said: "Brother Dalong, my parents heard about your deeds and admire you very much. They knew that you had arrived in Chongqing and invited you to be a guest at home."
At this point, Lin Xueying was worried that Xu Dalong would reject her, so she said coquettishly: "Brother Dalong, I have promised my parents that I will definitely invite you. You can't make me lose face."
Unexpectedly, Xu Dalong was very happy and agreed immediately. He said: "Well, I was just thinking about paying a visit to your father and your lord. After dinner, you can accompany me to choose some gifts."
Lin Xueying smiled and said: "There is no need for gifts, just go and leave. My parents don't care about this."
Xu Dalong said: "That won't work. It would be outrageous to go empty-handed to meet the elders."
Lin Xueying said: "Okay then. I will accompany you after dinner."
She said she wanted to entertain Xu Dalong, and she did just that. After finishing her meal, she called the waiter and asked for the bill.
The waiter asked her to wait a moment. He wanted to go back to the counter to look at Lin Xueying's purchase receipts.
Lin Xueying accidentally saw a piece of thread stuck to Xu Dalong's shoulder. This thread was probably from the driver's seat cover of the car, so she reached out to take it off for Xu Dalong.
At this moment, Xu Dalong suddenly reached out and pushed her away.
Lin Xueying was caught off guard and almost fell off her seat.
Just when she was in shock, she heard a gunshot, and a bullet hit the spot where her body was just now.
It turned out that Xu Dalong saw the waiter walking towards them. He noticed that this was not the same waiter who went to see the bill just now, but a different person.
Xu Dalong couldn't help but pay more attention to him. He suddenly found that this man's expression seemed a little nervous. Not only that, his posture holding the tray was a little stiff, so he couldn't help but become more vigilant.
Just when Lin Xueying reached out to pick off the thread for him, the waiter had already pulled out the pistol from under the plate.
Xu Dalong hurriedly pushed Lin Xueying away, and at the same time he ducked back, thus avoiding the shot fired by the waiter.
The waiter saw that one shot missed Xu Dalong and wanted to continue shooting at him.
Xu Dalong's reaction was extremely fast. At the moment when he had just dodged, he had already grabbed the plate on the table and hit the waiter directly on the wrist, knocking off his pistol.
When the waiter saw how powerful Xu Dalong was, he didn't dare to fight, so he turned around and ran away.
Xu Dalong jumped up and chased after him. Lin Xueying followed closely and chased after him.
The waiter was very skilled. He ran to the stairs on the second floor, sat on the handrail of the stairs, and slid down.
Xu Dalong was even more agile. He jumped several times in succession. Finally, he simply jumped down the stairs and continued to chase after the waiter.
Lin Xueying was also chasing after her, but she was wearing a dress and high-heeled leather shoes today, which was really inconvenient. When she ran to the door of the hotel, she saw that Xu Dalong and the others had already run far away.
Lin Xueying was very anxious. When she was thinking about how to help Xu Dalong, she saw several patrol policemen appearing on the street.
She hurriedly took out her ID and said: "I am from the military command department. There are Japanese spies in front of me. The person in the suit is one of my own. The waiter in the hotel is dressed as a Japanese spy. You hurry up and chase me."
When the patrol officer heard this, he whistled to call the police and chased after him with his gun in hand.
The waiter was extremely agile, but he was obviously no match for Xu Dalong. If there weren't so many people on the street, Xu Dalong would have caught him long ago.
Xu Dalong chased for half a street and was about to catch the waiter.
At this moment, the waiter reached out and grabbed an old man on the roadside, and pushed Xu Dalong hard. Xu Dalong had to hold the old man first, and then chased the waiter, which suddenly opened a certain gap.
"The Sword Comes"
But the patrolmen were also chasing after him, and the sound of their whistles alerted the other patrolmen, who also ran in this direction.
The original patrolman ran and shouted: "Catch the guy in front dressed as a waiter, he is a Japanese spy."
The newly joined patrol officers understood and began to outflank the waiter.
The waiter saw someone blocking the way in front of him, so he turned to a side alley.
Xu Dalong and others chased in. It seemed that the waiter was not familiar with the terrain here. He did not expect that this was a dead end. He had no choice but to jump up and grab the wall in front of him, trying to climb over.
Xu Dalong was a little far away from him at this time, so he had to fire a shot.
The bullet struck the waiter in the hip and he fell to the ground.
Xu Dalong and others were about to go up and catch someone alive and interrogate the waiter's origins. Unexpectedly, the waiter grabbed the tie on his chest and stuffed it into his mouth.
Oops! Xu Dalong's heart skipped a beat, realizing that something bad was going to happen.
Sure enough, the waiter fell to the ground, twitched a few times, and then stopped moving. It was obvious that he had committed suicide by taking poison.
Patrol officers followed and asked what was going on.
They asked about Xu Dalong's identity. Xu Dalong didn't bring any identification, and he couldn't explain it for a while.
The patrol officers were about to take Xu Dalong and the waiter who fell to the ground back to the police station for questioning.
At this moment, Lin Xueying came over in a rickshaw. She showed her ID to the patrol officers and asked them to cooperate.
When the patrol police saw that it was someone from the military command, they couldn't afford to offend him, so they agreed to cooperate.
Xu Dalong personally searched the waiter, but found no useful clues on him.
After thinking for a while, he asked the patrolman to take off the leather shoes on the waiter's feet. As expected, the waiter's big toe was deformed, which was caused by wearing clogs for a long time.
Now he was absolutely sure that the waiter was a spy for the Japanese army.
Xu Dalong couldn't find any more useful clues, so he asked the patrolmen to carry the waiter's body away.
Lin Xueying was thinking about why this situation suddenly occurred on the way here.
She quickly figured out that the Japanese spies must be targeting Xu Dalong. Now Xu Dalong is a famous anti-Japanese general. The Japanese army hates him deeply and must get rid of him quickly. Xu Dalong made a lot of noise in the military academy and could not hide his whereabouts. The Japanese spies may have been targeting him for a long time. They just pretended to be a waiter and assassinated Xu Dalong.
The more Lin Xueying thought about it, the more scared she became. She said anxiously: "Brother Dalong, you can't stay in Chongqing anymore. Return to the base quickly."
Xu Dalong shook his head and said: "The little devil dared to assassinate me and almost caused you to be injured. I will not let them go. I will not leave until I find out the black hand behind the assassin."
Lin Xueying knew Xu Dalong well and knew that once he made up his mind, he would stick to it.
She no longer tried to dissuade Xu Dalong and accompanied Xu Dalong back to the hotel where he was staying.
When Monk Wei heard that Xu Dalong was in danger, he immediately became anxious.
He said: "Captain, before leaving, Commissioner Zheng told me to protect you. I will go wherever you go from now on, and you will never be allowed to act alone again."
Xu Dalong knew that Monk Wei was sincere. He smiled and said, "Monk, don't be so nervous. Isn't this good for me?"
Lin Xueying said: "Brother Dalong, Chongqing is the place where Japanese spies are most rampant. They did not succeed in the assassination this time, and they will never give up. I want to go to the military command headquarters and ask them to help investigate this matter."
Xu Dalong did not object to Lin Xueying's opinion. He had always wanted to help Lin Xueying get rid of her identity as a military commander, and was looking for opportunities to establish contact with important figures in the military commander's field to help Lin Xueying solve the problem of her identity as a military commander. Without the approval of the military commander, Lin Xueying would not be able to get rid of the military commander.
Once the military commander issued a kill order, even though she was by Xu Dalong's side, she would inevitably live in fear.
He said: "Okay, Xueying, just go and contact them."
The head of the underground party's Chongqing office heard that Xu Dalong had not left Chongqing, so he sent senior staff officer to call him over.
The person in charge said: "Xu Dalong, why don't you leave Chongqing quickly? You must know that you are the main person in charge of the Mawushan base area and have a heavy responsibility on your shoulders. Espionage activities are rampant in Chongqing. If anything happens to you, the underground party will A heavy loss. You return to the base as soon as possible. If you delay any longer, it will be considered a serious violation of discipline. I will report it to the headquarters and severely criticize you."
Xu Dalong heard it. Although the person in charge's tone was very stern, he was full of care for him.
He said gratefully: "Chief, I know I was wrong. However, we cannot let the Japanese spies go. We have to stay here for a while to find out who is behind the assassination."
The person in charge said: "The office will do its best to capture Japanese spies. You are not good at this aspect and are unfamiliar with the place here, so you won't be able to play a big role. You'd better return to the base area quickly."
Xu Dalong said confidently: "Chief, please don't worry. Give me a week. If I can't catch the Japanese spy, I will return to the base immediately."
Seeing Xu Dalong's confident look, the person in charge asked curiously: "Do you already have a clue?"
Xu Dalong said: "I don't dare to guarantee it now. Within a week, I will definitely give you a definite answer."
Lin Xueying came to the Military Command Headquarters. Although she was only a low-level officer in the Taiyuan working group, she had a high-ranking general father, so the officials in the Military Command Headquarters still gave her a lot of face.
Not only that, Xu Dalong was famous, and he came to Chongqing this time because he was invited by Guo Jun. If something happened to him in Chongqing, the military command would not be able to explain it to his superiors.
Therefore, after Lin Xueying reported the whole story of Xu Dalong's assassination, the military command arranged for the Counterintelligence Division to organize a special team, headed by You Yukun, deputy director of the Counterintelligence Division, to assist Xu Dalong and Lin Xueying in solving the case.
