"Tell me about it? Why did you come to see me?" There were not many people in the teahouse. When Tang Cheng came in, he had already secretly observed everyone in the teahouse using his insight skills. After confirming that the tea guests in the teahouse are all ordinary people, Tang Cheng was so relaxed now that he could talk. "Let me tell you first. Although I have nothing to do right now, I can't just leave the city. If what you are talking about is too important, don't tell me. I'm afraid I won't be able to help."
Xu Huanshan mentioned the arrest at Chongqing Station as soon as they met. Tang Cheng was worried that what Xu Huanshan would say later would be related to the triple agent, so Tang Cheng took precautions and limited the content of the conversation in advance. Xu Huanshan was speechless when he heard this. Tang Cheng's meaning was very clear. How could Xu Huanshan not hear it? But he didn't want to waste the opportunity to meet Tang Cheng. After weighing it in his mind, he still whispered to Tang Cheng.
"Among the people arrested behind the military command, there is an insider involved in the secret development of the Chongqing underground party organization. He has a batch of medicines entrusted by the Chongqing underground party organization. We urgently need this batch of medicines!" Things have happened, and Xu Huanshan has no choice but to ask for help. Tang Cheng told the truth of the matter. Tang Cheng looked a little strange when he heard this. The medicines Xu Huanshan was talking about were actually some Chinese herbal medicines, and there were very few western medicines.
"Lao Xu, don't come to me for this matter, I really can't handle it!" Tangcheng naturally knew about the batch of medicines Xu Huanshan was talking about, because those batches of medicines had already been secretly transported into the military camp by Lao Fu and the others. . Nowadays, in the black market, the most sought-after items, besides tobacco, soil and arms, are all kinds of medicines. Even if Tang Cheng wants to get out the things that have been put into the warehouse, he still needs to give Lao Fu and the others a reasonable reason, not to mention that Tang Cheng doesn't want to get involved in this matter at all.
Tang Cheng's answer made Xu Huanshan's expression change. Only Xu Huanshan knew about the medicine. It was Xu Huanshan's decision to meet Tang Cheng secretly, but he didn't expect that Tang Cheng would reject it so simply. From the corner of his eyes, he noticed that Xu Huanshan's expression was ugly at this moment. Tang Cheng couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, and then lowered his voice and said softly, "This matter is very noisy, and it involves too many thoughtful people and forces. Now Even Chongqing Station is trying to stay out of the situation, and a small role like me doesn’t even have a chance to get involved.”
Tang Cheng's explanation sounded very cryptic, but Xu Huanshan was not a fool. He just thought about it for a moment and immediately understood what Tang Cheng meant. Really couldn't bear to see Xu Huanshan like this, Tang Cheng forgot about the decision he had made personally, and still told Xu Huanshan about the triple agent. "The person you are talking about is not simple. The news I got from Chongqing Station is that that person not only works for you, but also secretly works for the Japanese and the Central Government." Tang Cheng's words made Xu Huanshan unable to react for a moment. Tang Cheng I had to explain it carefully.
"The Chongqing Station found out that that person has always been an insider for the development of the Japanese. Later, he helped you with things. It was also because he was caught by the Central Government, so he gradually became a man between the three of you. A three-faced spy. In other words, what that person is best at is selling a piece of intelligence to all three of you, or exchanging information between you and the Central Government in exchange for the trust of you and the Central Government." Tangcheng Xu Huanshan would never have thought of what he was saying at this moment.
"How is this possible? Are you sure?" At this time, Xu Huanshan could hardly believe his ears. After Tang Cheng nodded affirmatively, Xu Huanshan almost jumped up from his seat on the spot. A person who secretly worked for the Japanese and the Central Government was actually developed into an outside agent by the Chongqing underground party organization. Moreover, the Chongqing underground party organization entrusted such an important matter as medicine to the other party. This is simply crazy. .
"Yes, when I heard the news, I couldn't believe it. Chongqing Station was also in a state of shock. But fortunately, that person couldn't survive the torture methods at Chongqing Station and died neatly in the torture room. Here, now we have the best of both worlds. Not only do you avoid being exposed, but even the Zhongtong side can be regarded as escaping!" There are some things that Tang Cheng can't explain clearly to Xu Huanshan. What he can do , just mixed some hints in the words, I just hope Xu Huanshan can understand what I mean.
Xu Huanshan didn't pay attention to what Tang Cheng said at this time. He was still secretly thinking about the three-agent agent. Tang Cheng suddenly brought him such breaking news. Xu Huanshan still hadn't fully digested the implications of the news. What a shock. "Let's forget about the medicines. I will be in Chongqing during this period. If I have anything to ask you, I will leave a message at Gaosheng Hotel." Xu Huanshan, who was anxious, left in a hurry, and Tangcheng sat around for a while. , just left the teahouse.
After leaving the teahouse, Tang Cheng did not return to the military camp immediately. Instead, he went alone to the courtyard that the search team first occupied in the city. Tang Cheng, who had so many things hidden in his heart, sometimes needed to be alone quietly. For a while. The small courtyard was kept very neatly, and it was obvious that the person responsible for taking care of the courtyard was very dedicated. Tang Cheng did not enter the house, but just sat down at the stone table in the courtyard. Listening to the voices of people passing by outside the courtyard and the sounds of children playing, Tang Cheng's restless heart gradually calmed down.
Tang Cheng has been keeping in touch with Xu Huanshan. Originally, he just wanted to help him as much as he could when he had the spare capacity and conditions. Tang Cheng, who retains the memories of later generations, has a natural affinity for people like Xu Huanshan and others. But as time went by, and Tang Cheng experienced more and more things, Tang Cheng suddenly found that his way of thinking became more and more in line with this era. To sum it up with a popular saying on the Internet in later generations, Tang Cheng has finally become the kind of person he once hated. In other words, Tang Cheng has now become a vested interest.
Now Tang Cheng is no longer a member of the proletariat. Although Tang Cheng has always said that he is just a small role, in the eyes of others, he is powerful and powerful, and he has the support of a big force like the military commander. Take the meeting with Xu Huanshan just now as an example. If it were in the past, if Xu Huanshan wanted to contact him, he might have called him directly, instead of sending a signal of the meeting in the newspaper first like now.
Tang Cheng knew that Xu Huanshan was wary of him. This may not have been Xu Huanshan's intention, but after Xu Huanshan left the teahouse just now, Tang Cheng, who stayed in the teahouse, was keenly aware that there were at least three unfamiliar faces outside the teahouse who immediately followed Xu Huanshan and left. Everyone is changing, including Xu Huanshan. With the expansion of the military command and the further expansion of power, he, who is inseparable from the military command, has finally become the target of Xu Huanshan and the others who are secretly wary of him.
Tang Chenghui chose to sit in the small courtyard because he discovered that Xu Huanshan actually arranged people outside the teahouse in advance. Maybe Xu Huanshan, who was in the teahouse, didn't know that there were their people outside the teahouse, or maybe those people outside the teahouse were just trying to ensure Xu Huanshan's safety while he was in Chongqing, but Tangcheng couldn't accept this. He thought that he had helped Xu Huanshan and the others a lot, and even took risks to rescue Xu Huanshan many times. The other party's unwarranted precautions made Tang Cheng feel a little cold.
Time passed little by little, and Tang Cheng disappeared after sitting alone in the small courtyard for a while. The stagnation in his chest gradually dissipated, and then he got up and left the small courtyard. It was almost time to get off work, and there were not many pedestrians on the street. After two severe crackdowns, Chongqing had fewer hooligans who did nothing but cause trouble. Many shady activities were really forced. Go underground.
Walking on the streets of Tangcheng, I am quite satisfied with the current Chongqing. If this mountain city could have more high-rise buildings and beautiful lights, it might look like a mountain city in later generations. When passing by a hot pot restaurant, the spicy aroma coming from the store made it impossible for Tangcheng to leave. After a brief struggle, Tang Cheng, who was dripping with saliva, quickly got into the store and picked a table in the corner.
The hot pot in this era was still the kind of copper hot pot placed directly on the table. It was not the popular mandarin duck hot pot in later generations, and the dishes were not as many as in later generations. But Tang Cheng looked at the fragrant red oil on the bottom of the pot, and I was still very satisfied. Unlike Shanghai and Nanjing, Chongqing sells Coca-Cola, and beer is not popular in Chongqing, so Tangcheng could only order a pot of herbal tea while enjoying the spicy food.
Hot pot is different from a formal meal. Eating hot pot is more of a time-killing enjoyment of life. If eating hot pot feels like eating a formal meal, then this person is definitely not a person who knows how to enjoy life. Tang Cheng occupied a table to himself and started to eat heartily. He was originally prepared to let himself go completely, but he did not expect that in a place like a hot pot restaurant, trouble would still come to his door.
"Captain Tang is so excited!" As soon as Tang Cheng poured a plate of mutton into the pot, a man with glasses suddenly sat down opposite him.
Tang Cheng just glanced sideways at the other party, but did not say anything to him. He just clutched his chopsticks and looked eagerly at the pot in front of him, as if waiting for the mutton in the red soup to boil. The man with glasses was able to keep his composure. Tang Cheng ignored him, but he could talk to himself. "Captain Tang, our director has admired Captain Tang's name for a long time. We are holding a banquet at Huixiang Tower in front of us. We hope Captain Tang can appreciate it!" The man with glasses kept his posture very low, but there was a faint hint of threat in his tone of voice. , which made Tang Cheng very unhappy.
