"You look like you've never suffered a loss before!" How could Tang Cheng be threatened by a little gangster in his own place? He then crossed his legs and smiled at the man. The man who was deliberately provoked by Tang Cheng was about to react, but was interrupted by Bai Zhanshan's slight cough, but Tang Cheng continued to laugh as if he hadn't seen Bai Zhanshan. "If a person like you doesn't know how to keep a low profile, I'm sure you won't survive a month in Shanghai. By the way, your skills are really not that good. I just used five points of force."
Hearing Tang Cheng say that he had only used five points of strength just now, everyone present, including Bai Zhanshan, took a deep breath. With just five points of strength, he can punch an adult several meters away. There is really no one with such skill. "Okay, don't keep talking more and more. Your Uncle Bai is not an outsider, so don't act like this on purpose." Zhang Jianghe, who had been paying attention to Bai Zhanshan, spoke up at the right time, and Tang Cheng finally restrained himself a little.
"Uncle Bai, you haven't said the purpose of coming here yet. Anyway, there are no outsiders present, so just say it directly!" Tang Cheng quietly looked at Zhang Jianghe and understood what Zhang Jianghe meant, and then brought the topic back to the subject. Before, just looking at Zhang Jianghe's expression at this moment, it seemed that he had some unspeakable meaning.
Bai Zhanshan was speechless for a long time, and then he finally expressed his intention under Zhang Jianghe's questioning. "Originally, I didn't want to trouble you about this matter, but this Yuan Cheng is an old man from Shanghai Station. He knows almost everyone in Shanghai Station. Yuan Cheng has also met all the people I brought from Nanjing. , I'm afraid that the truth will be revealed." Bai Zhanshan explained for a while, and then Tangcheng finally figured out Bai Zhanshan's purpose of coming tonight. I bet there was another traitor in Shanghai Station.
"Yuan Cheng was originally in the general affairs department, but later he was transferred to the archives department for unknown reasons." Bai Zhanshan looked a little flustered at the moment, and his words were a little confusing. "I'm afraid now. Yuan Cheng guards those files every day. If he takes any confidential files out of the archives, it will be troublesome. By then, even if my head is cut off, it won't be enough for the director to relieve his anger. of."
Bai Zhanshan's worry is not unnecessary, because both Tang Cheng and Zhang Jianghe know the temperament of the Nanjing director. If Yuan Cheng really takes the Shanghai Station's confidential files and hands them over to the Japanese, Bai Zhanshan's necklace will The head may really not be saved. "Xiaowu, you really want to help Uncle Bai this time!" Bai Zhanshan looked at Tang Cheng eagerly. Seeing that Tang Cheng was hesitant, Bai Zhanshan took out a wooden box and handed it to Tang Cheng. city.
"It's a small gadget. It's a little bit of Uncle Bai's affection. Don't refuse it to me!" The wooden box Bai Zhanshan handed over was very delicate. At first glance, it was no ordinary gadget. When Tang Cheng arrived, he did not avoid the people brought by Bai Zhanshan, and opened the wooden box in his hand in front of Zhang Jianghe. Inside the box was an emerald bracelet. Even if Tang Cheng didn't know much about this kind of thing, he could tell that this emerald-green bracelet was a valuable thing.
"Uncle Bai, this thing is too valuable. I don't dare to ask for it." Tang Cheng secretly glanced at Zhang Jianghe from the corner of his eye. When he saw Zhang Jianghe wink at him in a very subtle way, he closed the door with a smile. The box was handed back to Bai Zhanshan. It's just that Tang Cheng said it very cleverly. He just said that he didn't dare to ask for it, but he didn't directly say that he couldn't ask for it. Bai Zhanshan gritted his teeth secretly when he saw this, and had to take out a similar wooden box from another pocket. When he opened the box, he found a jade bracelet of the same style, which was obviously a pair of the one just now.
"Xiao Wu, Uncle Bai won't lie to you. I got these jade bracelets from a tobacco dealer. It is said that they came out of the palace in the past. I also asked someone to look at them. They should be good stuff. After the New Year, you will be 19. In our hometown, at your age, you are old enough to marry and have children. This pair of bracelets, even if I am an elder, I will give them to your wife as a meeting gift in advance." Bai Zhanshan showed With an attitude of not wanting it, Tang Cheng half-pushed and half-heartedly reached out to take the two boxes.
Bai Zhanshan was famous for being unable to get in or out at the Nanjing headquarters of the Intelligence Agency. Even Zhang Jianghe felt that he was lucky to be able to get these valuable jade bracelets from Bai Zhanshan. After brutally killing Bai Zhanshan, Tang Cheng secretly held back his laughter and then turned the topic back to Yuan Cheng's matter. "Uncle Bai, as for what you just said, I think you can't hide it from Nanjing. You should know that person's temper better than me. You are not afraid of doing something wrong, but you are afraid of that person knowing that you are hiding it from him. , if someone with intentions exposes the truth in the future, I’m afraid it won’t be a good place for you!”
Tang Cheng didn't agree to Bai Zhanshan in a hurry. Instead, he pretended to be worried about the other party and warned Bai Zhanshan. Bai Zhanshan became even more panicked when he heard this. Just as Tang Cheng said just now, the director of Nanjing is a man who can't get rid of the sand in his eyes. If he did something wrong, the worst possible outcome would be to be scolded or demoted, but if someone knew that he was hiding something from him, the outcome would definitely not be good.
"Old Bai, what Xiao Wu said is quite right. I think you are just too clever. You may have forgotten our family rules, right?" Seeing Bai Zhanshan's face getting paler, Zhang Jianghe also intervened at the right time. "If I were you, I'd better send a telegram first and report to that person. Now that the matter has come out, just find a way to make up for it. It's not a good idea to hide it, not to mention that person is always shrewd!"
Zhang Jianghe deliberately emphasized the pronunciation of the word shrewdness. Bai Zhanshan immediately understood what Zhang Jianghe meant. A trace of struggle flashed in his eyes. After coming back to his senses, Bai Zhanshan thanked Zhang Jianghe. "Old Zhang, thank you for reminding me. I really... lost my mind this time. Shanghai Station is basically a broken sieve now. I suppressed the news to prevent it from getting out because I was afraid that Yuan Cheng would still be like this. I'm really afraid of the traitor."
Bai Zhanshan's military rank was promoted to major after he was transferred to the Intelligence Division. According to the regulations of the Intelligence Division, those with the rank of major can compete for the position of Operations Section Chief. The Shanghai Station is the largest among the branches of the Intelligence Division, and it is also the one with the most funds allocated. Among other things, the deputy chief of the Shanghai Station must have the rank of lieutenant colonel. Bai Zhanshan is an official fan who is determined to climb up. This time he is lucky enough to succeed Zhang Jianghe and become the special correspondent of the headquarters stationed in Shanghai. This allows Bai Zhanshan to see the opportunity to climb up again.
With the help of Tangcheng, the assassination of Kenichi Yamamoto has been successfully concluded. But just when Bai Zhanshan fantasizes about staying in Shanghai and becoming the deputy director of Shanghai Station, a traitor appears again in Shanghai Station. How can this not make daydreaming happen? Bai Zhanshan was flustered. In order to keep his chance of moving up, he chose to suppress the matter while seeking help from Tang Cheng. After Tang Cheng and Zhang Jianghe reminded him one after another, Bai Zhanshan finally realized the importance of the problem, because some things simply couldn't be suppressed.
"Uncle Bai, don't think what I said is harsh. This Shanghai Station is not as easy to control as you thought." Seeing that Bai Zhanshan had come to his senses, Tang Cheng lowered his voice and continued. "The most powerful force in Shanghai is not the Intelligence Service, but the Qing Gang. Look at the concession police station. There is no Chinese patrol officer who does not have a Qing Gang background. In Shanghai, if you offend the Intelligence Service or the Japanese, you can hide in the concession at worst. But If you offend the Qing Gang, even if you enter the concession, you will still be unable to escape in the end."
Tang Cheng said Qing Gang, but the index finger of his right hand dipped in tea and lightly wrote two words on the table. Seeing this, Bai Zhanshan suddenly raised his head and looked at Tang Cheng. "Uncle Bai, this is just my speculation. It's up to you whether you believe it or not. I can't guarantee anything." When he was in Nanjing, Tang Cheng still felt that Bai Zhanshan was a figure, but now he looked at Bai Zhanshan at a loss. , Tang Cheng discovered that Bai Zhanshan was actually a man with high ambitions and low abilities.
The two words Tang Cheng wrote with tea on the table were actually very simple, they were the two words Qinggang. Almost everything in Shanghai, big or small, is closely related to the Qing Gang. Even many people in the Shanghai Station of the Intelligence Department have some connection with the Qing Gang. Yuan Cheng's disappearance for no reason does not necessarily mean he has become a traitor. The most important thing now is to find Yuan Cheng first. If you want to find someone in Shanghai, the Qinggang is the best choice. Tang Cheng wrote the word Qinggang on the table to remind Bai Zhanshan that he can seek help from the Qinggang.
Moreover, Tang Cheng also had a suspicion in his mind that Shanghai Station was monolithic from top to bottom. This statement had already been rumored in the Nanjing headquarters when Zhang Jianghe came to Shanghai. Tang Cheng thought that this Yuan Cheng might be the cause of trouble deliberately caused by those in Shanghai Station who did not want to see Bai Zhanshan's superiority. There might be a shadow of the Qing Gang behind this incident. "Uncle Bai, you still need to send someone to find out about Yuan Cheng's whereabouts. As long as you find his specific location, I will take care of the rest."
Tang Cheng originally didn't want to get involved in this matter, but when he saw Zhang Jianghe winking at him, and Bai Zhanshan had already brought out a bunch of jade bracelets, Tang Cheng followed the trend and made a gesture of being willing to help. "This Bai Zhanshan is getting more and more back. He panics about such a trivial matter, and it seems that nothing can be done." Watching Bai Zhanshan and others leave, Zhang Jianghe's face was full of disdain.
When Tang Cheng heard this, he just curled his lips secretly, but didn't say anything. He just said to himself that if you don't like Bai Zhanshan, why did you agree to help yourself? Could it be that I feel uncomfortable watching myself idle? The way an adult thinks is really speechless!
