Suspicious hiding place, ambush location, and whether there are any suspicious vehicles parked nearby, including bicycles. Pedestrians passed by the Heritage Bookstore. When the latter entered the Heritage Bookstore, were there any suspicious people checking the windows and shops opposite? Have those people who came out of the Heritage Bookstore been decorated? These are the basis for judging whether Heritage Bookstore is still safe.
However, after observing for a long time, Fan Keqin did not find any problems. Seeing that it was the appointed time, I went downstairs and walked out of the corridor. Then he saw the corridor across the street where Huazhang was, and the beautiful girl also walked out. She slightly arranged her handbag with her hands. Great, it's also a safe sign.
After the girl walked about fifty meters, Fan Keqin stepped out of the corridor and continued to follow her on this side of the road. After walking another thirty meters, I glanced at Huazhang across the street, looked out the window of the Heritage Bookstore, and walked in.
The area of the Heritage Bookstore is not too small. After entering, there is a storefront of about 100 meters, with rows of bookshelves filled with various books. On the right side of the entrance, against the wall, is the checkout counter.
At this time, there was a forty-seven or eight-year-old man wearing glasses and a long coat sitting behind the counter reading a book.
Hua Zhang walked in and took a look at him, then looked at the situation inside the store and saw that there was no one in the bookstore at this time. So he came to the counter and asked: "Boss, is there a copy of "The Importance of Being Earnest" written by Oscar #Wander and published in 2010?"
Hearing the three key words of publication year, author's name, and book title, the boss immediately paid attention to it, but on the surface he seemed to be recalling it and said: "Wang Del's in 10 years... doesn't seem to be there, but I remember it was about 20 years ago. It’s in the British drama category in the third row, why don’t you go and see it?”
"Okay. Thank you." Hua Zhang replied and ignored the shopkeeper. Instead, I went to the bookshelf in the third row, searched for it, and finally found a copy of "The Importance of Being Earnest" published in 2020.
After taking the book out and placing it on the counter, Hua Zhang said: "Boss, this is from the 20th year. Is it different from the 10th year I want?"
"I really don't know about this." The boss behind the counter heard Hua Zhang say this and already knew the other party's identity. So when answering, he looked at the window opposite, scanned it, and after finding no dangerous situation, said, "How about I go to the warehouse to look for it for you?"
"Okay." Hua Zhang said, "It would be best to have it delivered to your door."
"No problem." The boss wearing glasses replied. He had already walked around from behind the counter and walked to the door of the store. He reached out and took a sign that read: "Temporary outing for business." and hung it directly outside the door. . Then he closed the door and reached inside to lock it.
Turning around and looking at Hua Zhang, he waved his hand inside and said, "Please come inside and talk." As he spoke, he walked inside first. We arrived at the very back of the store, at a small table where book buyers could rest and select books.
After the two people sat down, the shop owner wearing glasses said: "Who are you?"
"Here from the headquarters." Hua Zhang answered simply and said: "I would like to ask if something happened locally some time ago, that is, recently? What I am talking about is that it has something to do with the police security bureau of the puppet government here. Yeah, what happened?"
After hearing this, the shop owner wearing glasses nodded directly and said: "The Police Security Bureau is the special agency of the Wang Puppet here. It looks like the military of the puppet government and the urban defense department combined with the police system. In fact, The one who opposes us locally is mainly this organization. It is a bit similar to the original No. 76 in Shanghai. It is just more inclined to local counter-intelligence. It does not have any external business. "
After explaining a few words, the boss wearing glasses added: "Four days ago, the local police station was suddenly dispatched. Not long after, there was a fierce exchange of fire in Tanshui District in the south of the city. Many people were killed. , and many people were arrested by them. But they were not from our Security Bureau.
It doesn't look like it belongs to the military command, because the local military command intelligence operations have been cooperating well with us, but there is no news. So...it's not from the Central Unification Party, it may be the anti-Japanese forces of the underground party of the Red Party. Of course, there is also a very small possibility that they are some private, small anti-Japanese organizations. It is also because of this that we did not inquire in depth. "
By the way, now whether it is the military command or the Security Bureau, many people actually know that although the Red Party has reached an alliance with the outside world, the gunpoint is unanimous. However, their sense of identification with the Red Party must be quite small. He was even mentally labeled as a future enemy. Therefore, if something happens to the Red Party, they sometimes will not conduct in-depth investigations or help, but will just watch.
But Hua Zhang was different after all. She was an underground party lurking deep in the Security Bureau. When she heard that her organization might have been attacked, she naturally paid attention to it. But she was indeed a genius spy. She didn't show any emotion when she heard the news, so she could do whatever she wanted.
Anyway, this time it was Fan Keqin who sent her here to inquire about the information. She could inquire directly and openly without any suspicion. So he said: "We don't know any details? Can we not be sure which anti-Japanese force was attacked by the Police Security Bureau?"
The boss wearing glasses shook his head and said: "I really don't know about this, but it is definitely more likely that it is the Central Unification and the Red Party. If you want to know, I can ask the branch... The information will be fed back tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. return."
Hua Zhang thought for a while and said: "Okay, you can help me find out. In addition, it is best if the information is more detailed."
"Okay." The boss wearing glasses said, "I will contact the branch immediately after you leave."
Hua Zhang thought for a moment again and then asked: "Have you heard any news recently about Wang Puppet officials coming to the local area from Nanjing?"
The boss wearing glasses frowned when he heard this and said: "We are not sure who the person from Nanjing is. To be honest, we are also investigating. But... who it is, we may not be able to find out in the short term. After all, we have to go through the headquarters and then compare with the Nanjing branch."
Hua Zhang said "Yeah." "So, there is indeed such a person coming from Nanjing, the puppet capital of Wang Puppet."
"Yes." The boss wearing glasses nodded and said: "We basically have surveillance on various local departments. A week ago..."
