After Peng Feng read the newspaper report, he remained silent for a long time.
Xia Boyan looked at his expression and said, "What's wrong? Are you moved?"
Peng Feng picked up the cigarette lighter on the table and said slowly: "I'm not moved, but shocked. Just for a radio station, he looted an entire Japanese trading company and killed everyone without leaving a trace. It's really What a cruel person!"
Xia Boyan was surprised: "How do you know he killed everyone?"
Peng Feng pointed at the newspaper and said: "It was only yesterday that someone reported the crime, and everyone in the trading company disappeared, the money was wiped out, and even the safe was taken away by this kid. He will still keep these Japanese People make seeds?”
Having said this, Peng Feng raised his head, looked at Xia Boyan and continued: "I just don't understand. How can a person who looks gentle and quiet and is so young be so ruthless in killing people? Don't you think so? You know, when he went to wipe out the bandit dens two years ago, he must have been seventeen or eighteen years old. When he came back with the seized property, he was surprised to see not a single bandit alive. There were dozens of people there. .”
When Xia Boyan heard this, his face became serious. He thought for a while and said, "Have you seen or heard of him killing innocent people indiscriminately?"
"That's not true. Those bandits are murderous villains. You can tell at a glance that they have done a lot of harming things. Since these Japanese have hidden radio stations, I'm afraid they are not good birds, but... but this method is not good. A little too harsh."
Xia Boyan suddenly said: "This matter ends here. Only the two of us know that he did it. Don't tell anyone."
"Then... superior..."
"Don't say it for now. The current situation is complicated. Just in case, let's just say it was bought on the black market. The medicine we got through Fuyuan Store is also said to be bought on the black market. This line can only be used by you. We both know."
Peng Feng hesitated and said: "In case the superiors investigate..."
Xia Boyan said categorically: "When the superiors want to investigate, there may be no need to hide it, but I can't say it now. I will bear the responsibility."
Peng Feng said unhappily: "Look at what you said, don't I even have this little responsibility? We all bear the responsibility together."
Xia Boyan didn't argue with him. He knew Peng Feng's personality after working together for many years.
He continued to explain: "I have only handed over part of the US dollars he gave me in the past two years. Most of them are used to purchase medicines, just to prevent too many people from knowing and doing bad things."
Peng Feng knew that Xia Boyan had some words that were difficult to say. In recent years, the struggle situation has become more and more cruel. Many underground organizations have been cracked by the enemy and many comrades have been arrested. The biggest reason is that traitors betrayed them. There are always people who are not strong-willed enough, and there are always people who are against them. The victory of the revolution caused turmoil.
He nodded silently and said, "I know."
"No, you don't know the importance of this matter yet." Xia Boyan said.
Looking at Peng Feng who looked at him in surprise, Xia Boyan said: "You are a fan of the authorities. With that person's care, everything will go smoothly as soon as you take action. If you want money, others will give you money. If you want medicine, others will give you medicine. Even if you want medicine, you will be given money." The radio station is willing to take risks to get it for you, so you will think that it all comes too easily, but you don’t think about it carefully, let alone think about it from the perspective of the overall situation.”
"But have you ever thought about what our current work would be like without his help? Let's not talk about whether you and Xiao Zhao could have escaped from the bandits on the road. At least the department has kept in touch with the superiors. The two-year-old radio station is long gone, and there are still so many funds and medicines, not to mention the many conveniences it has given us overtly and covertly."
Peng Feng was startled and started thinking along Xia Boyan's train of thought. Unknowingly, he broke into a cold sweat. If...if he hadn't met this little wolf cub, how could his work have gone so smoothly? Looking back on when I first came here, I was very cautious and walked on thin ice. Wherever I went, I was followed by eyes. I had to think carefully before doing anything, for fear of exposing any flaws and arousing suspicion.
What now? I walk on the road with confidence and confidence. I come and go at the provincial party headquarters at will. Even the police station has to treat me a little less. As long as I am not a serious criminal, it is no big deal to pick off anyone casually. If the organization is short of money, you can borrow it yourself, or you can return it without taking it. Now that there is a shortage of radio stations, people will risk it for you. They are also afraid that you don't know Japanese, so they write you a Chinese manual.
Most people are not so kind to their own fathers. Are you his father? When I just thought of this, I couldn't help but be shocked, and quickly changed my mind. If this little wolf bastard knew that I had this idea, I'm afraid he wouldn't beat me to death.
Then why is he being kind to himself? In fact, he is being kind to the organization. The signs of his attachment to the organization are clear. He only regrets that he is still stupid and self-righteous.
Now the organization is developing so smoothly in Shanxi. In fact, it is not how well I do my work, but this little wolf unknowingly contributes money and efforts, and also puts up a protective umbrella made of steel over his head. This situation today.
Are people like this important to the organization? Do you want to be strictly protected?
Xia Boyan knew that Peng Feng was a smart man, but he was just a fan of the authorities. Now that he thought about it clearly, he would naturally understand the importance of this person.
He said to Peng Feng: "In the future, you cannot call him by name. You must give him a code name."
"Code name? But he's not one of ours yet?"
"Can't people who are not ours have a code name? From now on, we will call him Sheep Head?"
"This...why is it called a sheep head?"
"Didn't you call me a fat sheep? Fat sheep doesn't sound good. I think it's okay to call me a sheep head, hehe! A sheep head has horns, which sounds mighty and domineering."
Why is the sheep head so powerful and domineering? Isn't a tiger's head and a lion's head more powerful? That's not what you're talking about. What a sheep head. If this kid finds out, he will beat me to death, do you know? He is such a ruthless person!
Xia Boyan waved his hand, and the code name was settled. He chuckled and said, "We are the only two who know it, and it won't reach other people's ears. Are you still afraid that he will settle the score with you?"
At this time, Xiao Zheng's surprised voice was heard outside: "We have been contacted."
…
Zhou Wen didn't know that he had another nickname called Sheep Head. He was already in the Marshal's office and gave a detailed report to the Marshal on Harada Keita's confession.
In Taiyuan, Japan's spy agency was about to be targeted. Of course, Zhou Wen had to come to ask for instructions from the commander. After all, the Urban Management Division was actually established with the commander's full support, so he had to show respect.
Another reason is that there is no need to hide the robbery of Songmu Trading Company. Don't underestimate the police station at this time. Someone might show up and investigate him. After all, if a crime is committed at home, there are always clues to follow.
