At 10 o'clock in the evening, the people had already fallen asleep after working hard all day, and a family in a small alley not far from Lao Zhang's rental house was lighting up an oil lamp.
A quirky little girl of 17 or 18 years old was holding a book and drawing on a piece of paper. Next to him stood a powerful man in his 30s with sharp eyes. not to be trifled.
The little girl's name is Lin Jiashuang. She is 18 years old this year. Her mother died young and her father was beaten to death by the Japanese for no reason the winter before last. Her father was an ordinary casting factory worker. He was killed just because he wanted the Japanese boss to raise his salary slightly. He was labeled as anti-Japanese and died extremely unjustly.
The man is 28 years old this year. He was named Zhang Jiu because he is the ninth in the family. Although his name is very rustic, Zhang Jiu trained his body with the Yibei martial arts master at the age of 4. His master passed away at the age of 15. Since his parents are gone, he began to work in the army. Because he was uneducated and illiterate, he never had the chance to get promoted.
However, he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and his marksmanship has made him highly valued by Shangfeng commanders. He once killed an opponent's heavy machine gunner in a trench from 160 meters away.
After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Zhang Jiu followed the army to resist the Japanese invaders. Unfortunately, the gap in combat power between the two sides was too great, and the team was broken up. He planned to go home and live with his newly married wife.
But as soon as he returned to the village, he received bad news. The Japanese led the puppet army to clear out the countryside. Less than 20 people from more than 60 households in the village survived. His wife also died under the bayonet of the Japanese.
Zhang Jiu hated the Japanese and traitors deeply and vowed to avenge his wife and fellow villagers.
After arriving in Shanghai, he had been living in a shantytown to make a living. Until a month ago, he secretly stabbed a lone puppet soldier to death on Zhabei South Road. Lin Jiashuang saw him and took him home.
Lin Jiashuang is young, but she is not stupid. Her father's tragic death made her full of hatred for the Japanese. She has no power to take revenge. She has the brains and Zhang Jiu has the strength. They are the "best partners" .
"Xiao Shuang, we don't have much money, how about I go to the pier to carry the bag?" Zhang Jiu said while looking at Lin Jiashuang who was drawing on a piece of paper.
"Brother Ninth, you don't have to worry about food and clothing. I have found a way to make money. Now our next target has been determined. Yu Dazui, deputy director of the South Street Branch of the Puppet Police Station, huh, this thief defected to the Japanese and killed the people. We have to pay for it. Revenge for the innocent people who died." Lin Jiashuang slapped the table hard.
…
After Liu Changchuan finished breakfast and reported to the Special High School Course, he left with Hashimoto Shi. The banquet held by Agent No. 76 headquarters was at noon.
He was going to take Hashimoto to see the situation in advance. He represented Masago Yoshimoto at the banquet, but the Special High School also had its own responsibilities. During the banquet, he had to monitor traitors, big and small, and cooperate with the gendarmerie to maintain order.
Therefore, Liu Changchuan and Hashimoto Shi are not only representatives of the super high school, but also have the obligation to review the participants, including Japanese from the mainland, and Japanese soldiers are no exception.
"Liu Sang, I want to have a big meal at this banquet." Hashimoto sat in the car and waved his arms excitedly.
"What a foodie. We are here as representatives of the special higher education courses, not to cook." Liu Changchuan felt contempt for Hashimoto in his heart. This guy can't do anything but eat.
"Welcome Brother Liu." As soon as Liu Changchuan arrived at the Siping Hotel, he saw Wen Feng'an trotting over and opening the car door.
"Brother Wen, your Fourth Brigade is also here to maintain public order?" Liu Changchuan got out of the car and punched Wen Fengan.
"Well, the director is very concerned about this banquet. We are here to cooperate with the security team." Wen Fengan put his arm around Liu Changchuan's shoulders and walked into the hotel.
"Hey, isn't this girl Meijuan? She's getting more and more beautiful after a month."
As soon as Liu Changchuan entered the hotel, he saw Chen Meijuan in a silk dress talking to a mature and dignified woman in her 30s.
"Humph..." Chen Meijuan turned her head and said nothing.
She hated Liu Changchuan very much and would never forget the humiliation Liu Changchuan had done to her in the torture room of the Extraordinary High School!
"Who is this?" Liu Changchuan glanced at the dignified and beautiful woman.
"Let me introduce to you, this is Team Leader Fang Lina Fang of our Secret Electrical Room No. 76."
"Team Leader Fang, this is Brother Liu from the Special Higher Education Course." Wen Fengan introduced the two parties.
Fang Lina said to Liu Changchuan with a smile on her lips: "It turns out to be little brother Liu, you have offended our beautiful lady No. 76 so much."
"Hey, I'm sorry. I can't help it. It was my duty at that time. I believe Meijuan will forgive me in the future." Liu Changchuan looked at Chen Meijuan with "affectionate" expression.
Shameless, Fang Lina and Wen Fengan cursed inwardly. But Chen Meijuan ignored Liu Changchuan at all and walked directly to the side.
"Hey, isn't this Zhang Zilu?" Liu Changchuan asked Wen Fengan in surprise when he saw Zhang Zilu coming towards him.
"Oh, he joined our No. 76." Wen Feng'an explained.
"Hmph, he's not an undercover agent placed by the military commander on your No. 76, is he?" Liu Changchuan snorted coldly.
"Ah...?" Wen Feng'an didn't dare to reply randomly.
"Brother Liu, don't worry, our No. 76 will never allow military commanders to sneak in." At this time, Li Qun walked over from the side, followed by Wu Bao, the captain of the guard brigade.
"Hello, Director Li." Liu Changchuan quickly bowed and saluted.
"Brother Liu doesn't believe Zhang Zilu?" Li Qun asked softly, waving his hand to Wen Fengan and others to leave.
Liu Changchuan rolled his eyes and replied with a wry smile: "Director Li also knows how much damage "Squirrel" has caused. I don't believe anyone who is involved with "Squirrel".
"Hahaha...Brother Liu is right." Li Qun replied with a smile.
But he felt disgusted in his heart. He didn't blame Liu Changchuan for talking too much, but Zhang Zilu was indeed deeply involved with the "Squirrel". Although all the evidence showed that Zhang Zilu was forced by the "Squirrel", he also screened Zhang Zilu for several rounds. , but there is still a thorn in my heart, feeling that Zhang Zilu is not a reliable person.
Liu Changchuan didn't know what Li Qun was thinking. He just used his "scanning eye" to scan Zhang Zilu, and it showed that he was still a member of the military commander. Damn it, Zhang Zilu was so courageous. He was involved with Squirrel and he dared to go to No. 76 Undercover, I admire you.
People came one after another at noon. The first big shot to arrive was Huang Gengshu, the pseudo-vice mayor who had a good relationship with Li Qun. Then the leader of the pseudo-corps and the police chief arrived one after another.
Liu Changchuan unexpectedly met his old acquaintance, Teacher An Guoping. Could this guy be working as a translator again to earn pocket money?
"Teacher An, you're here too." Liu Changchuan took a few steps forward and said hello.
"Oh, it's Dachuan. Are you also going to be the translator?" An Guoping patted Liu Changchuan on the shoulder and seemed very happy.
Liu Changchuan coughed lightly and didn't reply. He didn't want An Guoping to know that he was working in the Special High School. If the news spread back to the alley, it would be very troublesome.
"I came with the police chief." Liu Changchuan lied without blinking.
