Meng Shaoyuan stayed at the International Hotel that night in the suite where Shang Qianyi lived.
Anyway, Mr. Gong had to treat guests at noon, so he was too lazy to go back.
One of the nice things about being a secret agent is that you always have a constant excuse to stay out at night.
I slept until almost ten o'clock before getting up.
I looked around and saw that the guests would not arrive for more than an hour.
"You can have something to eat at noon." Meng Shaoyuan ordered after getting dressed.
"Yeah." Shang Qianyi helped him sort it out: "I want to go out for a walk. It's rare to come to Shanghai, so I have to bring something back."
"Okay." Meng Shaoyuan nodded: "I will ask someone to drive you and protect your safety. Shanghai is not as good as Chongqing. If people know that you are my woman, Meng Shaoyuan, it will be dangerous."
"Well, don't worry, I will protect myself."
"I'm going out first."
Meng Shaoyuan left the room, found Manager Ge, and specifically told him to pay attention to safety today. He also asked about the situation of the Soviet people.
"Old Maozi is quite peaceful, but he drinks too much." Manager Ge said with a smile: "If I keep drinking like this, they will drink up all my wine."
"Drink all, and I'll give you double the money." Meng Shaoyuan also laughed: "As long as they can stay here peacefully, let them drink as much as they want!"
…
Before 11 o'clock, Zhou Weilong and Cheng Yiming both arrived.
This time, the three military giants in Shanghai jointly achieved great success. They not only successfully protected Mr. Gong's safety, but also killed a Japanese ace agent.
When the report arrives at Dai Li's place, everyone will have a contribution.
So even if there were many disagreements before, everyone is smiling when they meet now.
"Brother Meng, you worked hard all night last night. Thank you for your hard work." Zhou Weilong said with a radiant face: "You are able to get rid of Kota Tahara this time. Brother, you have done a great job."
"District Chief Zhou is too polite." Meng Shaoyuan knew very well the principle of carrying people in a sedan chair: "Everyone deserves credit."
"That is the glory of our Shanghai." Cheng Yiming also said: "The War of Resistance Against Japan has entered a critical moment, and our work in Shanghai has been excellent. The frontal battlefield of the War of Resistance is also a kind of assistance."
The three people complimented each other there for a while, and then Mr. Gong walked in.
"Mr. Gong."
"Mr. Gong."
The three fans quickly stood up.
"Ah, please sit down, please sit down."
Mr. Gong smiled broadly: "Today is a small celebration banquet. I'm treating you. I'm just short of money. Don't dislike it."
These three giants are used to eating good food in Shanghai, and they don't care what they eat. Their purpose is nothing more than trying to get closer to Mr. Gong.
"Director Meng, I think we want to go to the bar today?" Mr. Gong said as soon as he sat down.
"Okay, I'll get it."
Meng Shaoyuan got up and went out to get two bottles of wine.
After several wine glasses were filled, Mr. Gong raised his glass and said some beautiful words.
Then the conversation changed:
"This time, you all have done a great job, and Director Meng also found Tahara Kouta's residence in Shanghai as soon as possible. I will go there in the afternoon, hoping to find something. As for me, I still say the same thing, We must sincerely unite with each other. You all here are important members of the military command and shoulder heavy responsibilities. Shanghai still relies on you to take charge of the overall situation."
"Yes, Inspector, unite sincerely and work together to deal with the outside world."
"To do a good job against the enemy, we must first clean up the inside." Mr. Gong continued: "We have planted many spies among the Japanese. I, don't get me wrong, I am an inspector and I am here to inspect the work. , instead of directing the work, there is no need for the spies you sent out to report to me, that is a top secret that only you know."
pretty!
Meng Shaoyuan and three other people had this idea in their minds at the same time.
Each department has sent out a large number of spies. Once Mr. Gong asks for these lists, will he give them or not?
If you don’t give it, you will offend the inspector.
Come on, who will be held responsible if something happens in the future?
For example, Tian Qi and Miao Chengfang sent out by Meng Shaoyuan were both classified as top secret.
Fortunately, Mr. Gong has now dispelled their concerns.
This Mr. Gong is thoughtful, well-planned, and extremely considerate.
Dai Li sent him to Shanghai as a party man.
"When I say spies, I don't mean the spies we send out." Mr. Gong's tone gradually became serious: "We can send spies to the Japanese, and the Japanese can also send spies to us. Many incidents in the past It has been proven that a large number of Japanese spies are active around us, so I issue a secret order from Director Dai!"
Meng Shaoyuan and the other three stood up immediately.
Mr. Gong's eyes swept over them one by one: "Immediately investigate the Shanghai Navy Commander, focusing especially on those with stained history, those who have been captured, and those whose whereabouts during a certain period cannot be proved in detail. You will do the specific work yourself. As for the investigation, I am only supervising him as the representative of Director Dai."
"yes!"
"When you find suspicious persons, don't jump to conclusions easily." Mr. Gong explained in particular: "Frontline work is not easy. Everyone is doing it with their heads in their hands. Once a wrong conclusion is made, the intelligence officer's career will be ruined. destroyed."
"yes!"
"Please sit down, everyone, please sit down." Mr. Gong asked them to sit down again: "I am also a front-line intelligence officer, and I know that this line of work is not easy. It involves a lot, in addition to career prospects, political life, and more practical Yes, it is a matter of their personal treatment. If they are fired or even have family law enforced because of this, what will they do in the future?
Therefore, my idea is that some small stains can be ignored as invisible. Some are specious. Look at the seriousness of the problem and give them as many opportunities as possible. If you can save something, try to save as many as possible. As for Mr. Dai, I went to talk to him and I believe he can understand. "
Meng Shaoyuan admired Mr. Gong in his heart.
Only those who have truly been front-line intelligence agents can say these words and put themselves in the shoes of those little people.
Zhou Weilong and Cheng Yiming also had the same idea...
…
I had a great time drinking this meal and drank it for more than three hours.
During this period, Mr. Gong had a heart-to-heart talk with them and told them everything he knew. He also bluntly stated that so far, he has discovered some problems in Shanghai based on his observations, and he has always been able to get to the bottom of the problem.
Sometimes when he saw that the atmosphere was a little tense, he would change the subject and talk to them about interesting things about Hong Kong and Macau.
Everything is under control.
Anyway, Meng Shaoyuan felt that if he were allowed to be the inspector, he would never do a better job than Mr. Gong.
After drinking, he got up and saw Mr. Gong out.
Mr. Gong also insisted on paying the bill himself.
Meng Shaoyuan accompanied Mr. Gong.
As soon as she walked to the gate, she saw Shang Qianyi coming back with the driver.
There were big and small bags in my hands and I bought a lot of things.
Meng Shaoyuan had already explained it, so Shang Qianyi glanced at Meng Shaoyuan and just pretended that she didn't know him, and didn't say hello.
very good.
This is how your own woman should be.
After sending Mr. Gong into the car, he repeatedly told the agents to ensure Mr. Gong's safety, and then sent Zhou Weilong and Cheng Yiming away before turning back.
Feeling a little tired, I checked the time and decided to go back to Shang Qianyi's room to rest for a while...
…
This night, I slept very comfortably, but I was woken up by the sound of the phone.
"Boss Meng, from the outside, Mr. James is here."
When Manager Ge said the secret code on the phone, Meng Shaoyuan immediately knew it was a call from a secret line:
"Got it, come in."
It turned out to be Mr. Gong calling:
"Director Meng, are you busy?"
"I'm not busy, Mr. Gong, what orders do you have?"
Mr. Gong's tone sounded very serious: "I found very important information from Tahara Kouta. A big moth was discovered within the Shanghai Navy Command!"
Meng Shaoyuan was shocked. He didn't dare to ask more questions on the phone: "Mr. Gong, what do you need me to do?"
"Listen." Mr. Gong said word by word: "From now on, only you and I know the conversation. At 7 o'clock, you go to my residence in Shiqiao by yourself. Don't let anyone know, especially It’s Zhou Weilong and Cheng Yiming.”
Meng Shaoyuan was shocked, something went wrong with Zhou Weilong and Cheng Yiming?
However, he was not allowed to think carefully, and Mr. Gong added: "This is a top secret and an order. It is related to the fate of the navy commander. If there is any leakage, we will deal with it according to family law."
"Yes, Mr. Gong, 7 o'clock in the evening, Shiqiao Lane, I will arrive on time."
"I'll put the key under the flower pot at the door. You knock on the door three times, then take the key and come in."
"yes!"
The phone was hung up.
The problem is serious!
Meng Shaoyuan held the phone in his hand and put it down after a long time.
Zhou Weilong and Cheng Yiming? Who among them had the problem?
Or is there something wrong with one of their cronies?
If there is a problem at the top, it will definitely be a big deal within the military.
"What's the matter, Master?" Shang Qianyi walked in.
"I'm going out in the evening, so you should eat alone." Meng Shaoyuan was a little absent-minded.
"Um."
The waiting time was like a year for Meng Shaoyuan.
Look at the time, it's just 5 o'clock.
"Where are the clothes? I'm going out for a walk. I may not come here at night." Meng Shaoyuan wanted to go out and relax.
Shang Qianyi hurriedly brought him clothes. While helping him put them on, she asked casually: "Why are you having dinner with a Japanese today?"
"Japanese?" Meng Shaoyuan felt confused: "Which Japanese?"
"Is he the person who was with you when I came in?"
who?
The person with you?
Mr. Gong?
Meng Shaoyuan stared at Shang Qianyi: "You said, at noon, when you came in, the person with me was Japanese?"
His gaze made Shang Qianyi a little scared:
"Yes, even though it has been so many years, I will not admit it. We have been trained since childhood to remember the appearance of a guest after seeing him. This person should be called Mr. Yanagawa, but I don't know the specific name. ”
