After the two people sat down, Fan Keqin asked: "How is it? Have you contacted me?"
Hua Zhang nodded with a smile and said: "We have made contact. In addition, I went back to the bureau and explained the situation to the bureau chief. After all, you are right. A normal report is still needed. Otherwise Afterwards, it seemed that we were guilty. The bureau chief agreed happily. Then he personally and secretly dispatched Captain Wang Zhanyuan of the Field Service Corps to lead a team of field agents to Changchun. They were responsible for investigating the State Council Building of the Puppet Manchukuo. Captain Wang and I also agreed There are several ways to contact you.”
Speaking of this, Hua Zhang first told Fan Keqin how to contact him. Then he continued: "Brother, the response from the Red Party was very fast. I secretly contacted the director of their office, Mu Enmin, and I told him what kind of information I wanted to obtain in the Northeast. He said he would contact me. Superior. Then we agreed on a code and method of contact. Unexpectedly, I got a reply the next night. They would ask the agents in the Northeast to inquire about the situation as much as possible. If there is definite information, they will It was placed in the form of a mailbox in the Tianjin Baozi shop on Daoli Street. There was a depression in the middle of the toilet ceiling beam."
Fan Keqin nodded and said: "Yes, I understand. It seems that we will try the famous Tianjin steamed buns in the future."
Hua Zhang paused and said with a slight worry: "Brother, the efficiency of the Red Party is much higher than that of the national government. One is from the south, the other is from the north. I only waited a day for a reply."
Fan Keqin nodded and said: "Well, yes. Their efficiency is definitely much higher than that of the national government. This is due to their beliefs and crisis awareness. They are prepared for danger in times of peace. However, replying to you is one thing. After agreeing, , the information is transmitted to the north, and specific tasks are assigned. It takes a little longer, and you can't tell. However, judging from the time, before you came, there must be underground parties operating in the north that have accepted the tasks. Maybe, while you are on the road, someone will already be inquiring about this matter."
Hua Zhang nodded and said, "Yes, that's right." Then he looked at Fan Keqin and said, "Then I'll go to the bun shop on Daoli Street tomorrow. Maybe the information has been obtained."
Fan Keqin said: "That's fine, but let me go. You've been working too hard this way. Have a good rest before we talk. In addition, I haven't been idle these days. I found two places where I can enter the Songjiang cargo station." .”
With that said, Fan Keqin stood up and walked to the bookshelf and took out a few pieces of paper written in the book. He returned to sit down again, and one of the pictures he drew was one of them. According to this simple diagram he drew, he explained the situation to Hua Zhang, and finally said: "These are the situations I have investigated these days. All the information that I think is more important is written on it. When you rest at home tomorrow , you can take a look.”
"Actually, I'm not very tired." Hua Zhang said, "I've been sitting all the way, but I'm just a little tired. I'll have a good sleep tonight, and I'll stay with you tomorrow."
Fan Keqin smiled and said: "It's up to you. It's still early today. I don't think we should wait until that day to eat Tianjin steamed buns. You wait at home and read what I wrote. I'll go out and take a look. Is there any information in the dead mailbox? Bring the buns back by the way and let’s eat them together tonight.”
Hua Zhang nodded and suddenly smiled: "Well, brother, it's best to bring some jealousy back."
"No problem." Fan Keqin replied, stood up and put on his clothes again. Walked out of the room. When we got downstairs, we called a taxi and arrived at Daoli Street in a short time.
It is said that the Tianjin Baozi here existed before the invasion of the Japs. It is also a time-honored restaurant and very famous. Therefore, when Fan Keqin came, although he did not catch up with the meal, there were many people inside. At least 70% of the diners will be seated.
Fan Keqin came to a table, ordered two side dishes, a pot of old wine, and three drawers of the most famous steamed buns, and told the waiter to take two of them away. Then he asked where the toilet was, and he wanted to go to a toilet first.
Following the waiter's instructions, Fan Keqin walked through the canteen on the first floor, turned and entered the toilet. By the way, this is an old restaurant. The toilet inside is also old-fashioned. However, this is a hotel after all, and the old-fashioned toilet is inside the room, so the smell is quite strong. In addition, the business was in good condition and relatively profitable, so the toilet was later renovated and turned into a flush toilet and a sink.
However, the overall layout is still old-fashioned. After entering, Fan Keqin began to wash his hands constantly and moved away a boy who was peeing. He quickly came to the middle position, looked up, and saw a large beam on it. Fan Keqin jumped hard, held the beam with both hands, and then touched it with one hand... Huh? There really is something.
Fan Keqin quickly took out the paper inside, dropped it to the ground at the same time, and then quickly glanced at the paper. Although it was continuously folded into small pieces, he could still tell that this was the most common kind of letter paper. And there should be two stacked on top of each other.
Putting it in his arms, Fan Keqin washed his hands again to wash away the dust on the beam, then left the bathroom and started eating and drinking.
In fact, Fan Keqin really didn't expect that the Red Party could spread the news so quickly. When he just took down the information, although he didn't look at it carefully, he still took a look and felt it with his hand. Judging from the dust on it, this information was actually placed on the beam for a short period of time. It took three days at most.
If you calculate it this way, the time is indeed very short. After Hua Zhang returned, he contacted the other party immediately. Then it took some time to come back. But information always travels faster than people. Just like what I told Hua Zhang before, maybe the other party had just given the task when she was on the way. But as long as a task is given, such as a radio station, the radio waves will be quickly transmitted to the Northeast in the air.
Therefore, the red agent who actually took over the task must have been nearly a week faster than Hua Zhang. If the information contained specific information, Fan Keqin could reasonably infer that the red agent performing the mission was probably working in a department closely connected with Songjiang Cargo Terminal.
Fan Keqin thought carefully while eating. If it is really what I inferred, if I complete the sabotage mission, will it bring danger to the other party? You know, the Japs and the Puppet Manchukuo will definitely launch an investigation afterwards. If they suspect an internal leak, the red agent who provided the information may really be suspected.
