"Captain Tang, please sit down!" Although Qin Zhong only has the rank of captain, he seems to have a good demeanor. Especially in front of Tang Cheng, he, an outsider, is like a master. Tang Cheng, who was feeling depressed, did not show his bad mood on his face. He just cursed secretly in his heart and followed Qin Zhong's instructions and sat down on the single sofa expressionlessly. Qin Zhong deliberately behaved like a master, and his original intention was to anger Tang Cheng, but he did not expect that Tang Cheng did not react.

Tang Cheng's silent response made Qin Zhong suddenly remember what his superior had deliberately reminded him when he left the military headquarters. Now it seemed that what his superior said was true. This young-looking Tang Cheng was indeed difficult to deal with. In terms of age, Qin Zhong is much older than Tang Cheng, but Qin Zhong is only a clerk at the military command headquarters, while Tang Cheng, who is younger than him, has already taken charge of an action team with nearly a hundred people and established a distinguished position. Military exploits.

"Captain Tang, how old is Qin? Why don't you call me Brother Tang?" Tang Cheng's calm demeanor was a bit difficult to deal with in Qin Zhong's opinion, so he immediately rolled his eyes and planned to use it on Tang Cheng. Soft approach. Changing the title first was only Qin Zhong's first step. If Tang Cheng's expression relaxed, Qin Zhong would use the banner of military command to probe Tang Cheng's attitude. Qin Zhong took it for granted, but he ignored that Tang Cheng's father was originally a military commander, and he was also a martyr.

Qin Zhong felt that by calling Tang Cheng his brother, he was lowering his status, but Tang Cheng still had the same cold expression on his face. "Sir Qin, if you have something to say, you might as well say it! When I received the notice, I was leading my brothers to investigate suspicious targets in the city!" Tang Cheng's words made Qin Zhong's eyes gleam. He could hear what Tang Cheng said. He was quite polite, but actually he was mocking himself.

Qin Zhong, with anger igniting in his heart, tried his best to control his emotions. The masseter muscles beating from time to time on his cheeks showed Qin Zhong's mood at the moment. After taking a deep breath, Qin Zhong suppressed the anger in his heart and slowly squeezed out a smile on his face to look at Tang Cheng. "Brother Tang, I came to Chongqing on orders from the bureau to investigate the arrest of the Butterfly Group some time ago. The report submitted by the Chongqing Station to the headquarters said that the arrest of the Butterfly Group was mainly due to your search team, Brother Tang. effect…"

"Sir Qin, I still said what I just said. If you have something to say, you might as well say it directly." It was impolite to interrupt someone, especially Qin Zhong was a member of the investigation team sent to Chongqing by the military command headquarters, but Tang Cheng didn't care. "I don't know what Butterfly Team you just mentioned. Catching Japanese and puppet spies is a matter for your military commander, so you should ask the Chongqing Station about this matter you mentioned. As for the search team you mentioned, actually It's just that some local veteran police officers and I formed a loose civil organization to make a living, but it can't be praised by you, Chief Qin."

Tang Cheng actually didn't want to offend this Chief Qin, but when he came, he acted like a master, and he, the master, became a guest. How could this make Tang Cheng not feel angry? What's more, Bai Zhanshan, a veteran military commander, didn't dare to criticize himself. Why did the military commander in front of him test himself with guns and sticks in his words. Tang Cheng was annoyed and naturally lost his good looks towards Qin Zhong. Qin Zhong didn't have the guts to do anything to him anyway.

Tang Cheng was confident and fearless, Qin Zhong was as heartbroken as if he had eaten a dead fly, but the situation was indeed as Tang Cheng expected. Qin Zhong could only get angry in his heart, but he did not dare to do anything to Tang Cheng. "Brother Tang is joking. Qin came to Chongqing under the order of the bureau, and definitely not to target Brother Tang." After continuous testing to no avail, Qin Zhong, who could not help but feel a little impatient, had no choice but to read the official document on the table. From the bag, I took out the merit report message received by the military command headquarters and the case files just retrieved from the Chongqing Station.

"Brother Tang, this is the report message sent by the Chongqing Station to the Military Command Headquarters. It clearly states that the arrest of the Butterfly Group was mainly due to the assistance of the search team. This is the confession I just obtained from the Chongqing Station There are also detailed records in the file. Most of the members of the Butterfly Team were arrested by your search team." Qin Zhong placed the documents and messages taken out of the briefcase on the table in front of Tang Cheng, with a look on his face. Unconsciously, he showed an expression that he had everything under control.

Tang Cheng didn't even look at the things on the table. He just took out cigarettes from his pocket, lit one and started smoking. "Sir Qin, these are your military commander's case handling documents. In other words, these are your military commander's confidential documents on the table. You may think this is nothing, but it is better for me, an outsider, not to be too self-conscious. , I still have it." Tang Cheng's excuse for declining was so good that Mr. Qin was speechless.

Halfway through smoking a cigarette, Tang Cheng broke the calm in the conference room and said, "Sir Qin, I really still have things to do. If you don't have anything to do here, I will leave!" He reached for the cigarette ashes on the table. After putting out the cigarette butt in the vat, Tang Cheng made a show of getting up and leaving. How could Qin Zhong just let Tang Cheng leave like this? When he saw Tang Cheng getting up, he reached out to stop him and said urgently.

"Brother Tang, you're here, why don't we have a chat! If you think there's anything I can't do, just say it, we are all young people, everything is easy to talk about!" Qin Zhong's face His expression changed instantly. The previous arrogance was gone, only warmth and closeness remained. Tang Cheng was secretly surprised. The other party's changing tone and expression made Tang Cheng feel that something must have happened at the military command headquarters.

Tang Cheng would have guessed well. The Military Command Headquarters did have many disputes during the meeting because of the merit report at Chongqing Station. Originally, according to the merit report message from Chongqing Station, the Military Reunification Headquarters decided to report the merits directly to Chongqing Station. However, some senior officials at the Military Reunification Headquarters felt that Chongqing Station was falsely reporting military merits. After a dispute, the Military Reunification Headquarters decided An investigation team was sent to Chongqing to find out.

It is precisely for this reason that as soon as Qin Zhong arrived in Chongqing, he couldn't wait to focus on Tangcheng and the search team. In Qin Zhong's view, compared with the Chongqing Station, which is full of military colleagues, Tangcheng and the search team are relatively better at finding a breakthrough. But Qin Zhong didn't expect that Tang Cheng looked young, but he was not easy to deal with. At least until now when the two met, Qin Zhong had not taken advantage of Tang Cheng.

Since he couldn't take it by force, only the soft ones were left. Qin Zhong was confident that he could put aside his identity and have a hard time with Tang Cheng. After Qin Zhong stopped him like this, Tang Cheng didn't want to break up now, so he had to sit down again. He also wanted to know what Qin Zhong was here for. The two sat down again. Qin Zhong's voice was much warmer, but his words clearly indicated that he was sent to Chongqing by the military command headquarters. When Tang Cheng heard this, he just rolled his eyes silently in his heart.

"Sir Qin, when I first formed the search team, there was still chaos in Chongqing. My uncle had just been transferred to Chongqing and was not very familiar with the specific situation. The search team was formed just to help him collect information on the streets as quickly as possible. The situation. Later, your military command headquarters said that the search team can be stationed under Chongqing Station. In their free time, they can also help Chongqing Station collect and capture Japanese and puppet spies lurking in Chongqing City."

While talking, Tang Cheng took out a small notebook from his pocket and took out a neatly folded message from the middle of one page. "Sir Qin, this is the original message sent by your military command headquarters to Chongqing Station that day. I have been keeping this message carefully because I am worried that your military command headquarters will forget about it as time goes by." Tang Cheng said, He opened the folded message and handed it to Qin Zhong.

"As the old saying goes, cats follow their own paths, and mice follow their own paths! Our search team naturally has our own way of doing things. Our methods of doing things may not be acceptable to you, but I can assure you, Our search team absolutely has a bottom line when doing things, and we will not violate the regulations of your military command." Tang Cheng once again put on a tit-for-tat face, hoping to anger Qin Zhong. Like Qin Zhong, he wanted to take advantage of the other party. Find flaws in your body.

"If you have done investigations at the Chongqing Station, you should know that our search team is only responsible for inquiring about news and related situations. As for the specific arrest, we will work together with the Chongqing Station, and during the operation, our search team will be more Most of them are engaged in peripheral security work." Yu Haiguang got half of the butterfly team's credit in vain, and Zhang Jianghe gave the second credit to Yu Haiguang, so Tang Cheng was not worried that Yu Haiguang would betray himself to Qin Zhong.

After all, Qin Zhong had stayed at the military command headquarters for a long time. Although he was considered a direct descendant of the military command, he basically had a dark eye on the specific affairs of the sub-station below. He carefully read the relevant files compiled by the Chongqing Station, but he vaguely felt that the search team commanded by Tang Cheng was not simple, but if he was asked to tell what was not simple, he couldn't tell. If I were to use a common saying to describe Mr. Qin, it would be a bottle that is less than half a bottle!

Tang Cheng felt that Qin Zhong was just a fool who talked a lot but had no real skills at all. If Zhang Jianghe had not given instructions in advance, Tang Cheng would not want to deal with this guy at all. Although Qin Zhong was a few years older than Tang Cheng, in the final analysis, he still had a arrogant and arrogant temper. He finally became angry when Tang Cheng changed the subject one after another. "Captain Tang, please correct your attitude. I am talking to you on behalf of the military command headquarters!" After getting angry, Qin Zhong stopped calling him Brother Tang. Tang Cheng also sat up straight after hearing this, his eyes were cold and he looked at Qin Zhong blankly, putting on a face that said whatever you want.
