After reading the official documents, Zuo Zhong found that there was nothing special, just that the bald man kept preaching the nonsense that one must first pacify the interior before fighting against the outside world, and there were various intelligence preparations for military operations in the southwest.
The Secret Service also received relevant tasks. Bald Head asked the Secret Service to cooperate with the Secret Service Headquarters to clean up the underground party's underground organization in Jinling and arrest the troublemaking students.
Zuo Zhong checked the time. It was an order conveyed in the past two days. He probably hadn't had time to take action yet. He glanced at it and threw the document aside.
Dai Chunfeng didn't tell him about this just now, and he didn't seem to want to get involved in it. The Secret Service cooperated with his secret service headquarters. Damn, that's probably what Dai Chunfeng thought.
Just as he was thinking about it, Zuo Zhong's phone rang. He asked if it was Wang Aofu from the secret service headquarters. He offended Xu Enzeng. Is this guy still alive?
"Is this Section Chief Zuo? Long time no see. I heard you just came back from a mission?"
"This is confidential. What can I do for Deputy Section Chief Wang?"
"It's like this. We have a big operation against the underground party and we need your cooperation. May I ask about this?"
Zuo Zhong didn't want to talk nonsense with him: "Deputy Section Chief Wang, our Secret Service won't take credit from you. We are all a family. I still have official business to deal with here. Let's talk again when we have the chance."
After hanging up the phone, Zuo Zhong thought about what Wang Aofu meant by a big operation. The arrest of a few underground party members was not a big operation.
The Secret Service headquarters is full of literati and gangsters, and they are indeed amateurs in terms of their ability to act. This can be seen from the arrest of Chen Jianzhong. It seems that they are very aware of their combat effectiveness.
Therefore, the number of arrests in this operation should be large, and it is very important, so the Secret Service Headquarters will contact the Secret Service to act together. Wang Aofu wants the Secret Service to have a hard time.
But the discipline of the underground party is very strict, and all contacts are through one line. How does the secret service headquarters know about so many underground parties, unless there are traitors?
The situation was a bit serious. Zuo Zhong waited patiently until he got off work. He Yijun asked him to go see a civilized play, but he declined with an excuse.
When he got home, Zuo Zhong checked the mark first. There was nothing wrong with the incense ashes behind the door and the hair in the cracks of the desk drawer. It was true that no one came in during the time he left.
When the contact time came, Zuo Zhong edited a text message on his mobile phone and told the underground party about his speculation, hoping that they would be more vigilant.
Zhang Anren is a little irritable these days, because Qiu Chan has disappeared since the last contact. Now the situation between the enemy and ourselves is so complicated, and he wonders if something happened to Qiu Chan.
However, every time the contact time came, he would still wait for Qiu Chan's communication. After so many days, the green communication light finally turned on today, and Zhang Anren was heartbroken.
The operator quickly handed the secret message to Zhang Anren, who used a codebook to decipher the message: The secret service headquarters will launch a large-scale arrest in the near future. There are many arrest targets. If someone is suspected of rebelling, please be vigilant.
What, Zhang Anren broke into a cold sweat, and the secret service headquarters was preparing for a large-scale manhunt? But why would Qiu Chan use words like doubt.
Intelligence personnel must not say such vague things, because every piece of information is directly related to the safety of the party and comrades.
Qiu Chan has been able to fight in the enemy's heart for so long, so he should understand this truth. Perhaps he may have discovered some clues but was unable to confirm them, so he took the risk to report them?
But what does it mean to have many arrest targets? Does the enemy know the identities of many comrades? But the underground party has a single line of contact and is never allowed to ask each other about their identities. This is an ironclad discipline.
Many people, many people?
After thinking for a long time, Zhang Anren only thought of one possibility, that is, a meeting, but the current struggle situation is not optimistic. The underground party rarely holds collective meetings. Even if there are meetings, confidentiality measures are very strict and will not be easily leaked.
Unless the target of the secret service headquarters is the location of the Jinling Municipal Committee of the underground party, there are only a lot of staff and security personnel there.
Is the purpose of the secret service headquarters really the municipal party committee? Zhang Anren couldn't sit still, so he wrote down a secret message and asked the operator to send it to Qiu Chan immediately.
"Buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz buzz". I called back and left clicked to open the text message.
"Liberate and wait for contact."
Could the matter be so serious? Zuo Zhong's face was heavy. He must have realized some big problem before letting himself lurk temporarily.
In Jishi Pharmacy, Zhang Anren ordered the operator: "Take the radio to a safe place immediately. You are not allowed to contact anyone without my order. You must stay in Jinling and wait for an opportunity to contact Qiu Chan."
What Zhang Anren can do now is to protect Qiu Chan for the party. This operator is an old underground party member and came from Shanghai, so he is trustworthy.
Knowing the seriousness of the matter, the telegraph operator packed up his equipment and left immediately. Zhang Anren closed the pharmacy and called a rickshaw. He was going to find Jinling Underground Party Secretary Shi Ning.
After a set of anti-tracking actions, it was already night by the time Zhang Anren arrived at Shi Ning's house. Shi Ning was surprised to see him and was also very angry at the same time.
"Comrade Anren, why do you violate discipline? Don't you know how dangerous this is?"
Zhang Anren didn't have time to explain, so he asked directly: "Secretary Shi, is there anything going on with the municipal party committee recently?"
Shi Ning was a little confused: "Everything is normal, Lao Zhang, did something happen?"
"I got information that the secret service headquarters may have learned the address of the municipal committee!"
Zhang Anren trusted Shi Ning. His whole family was killed by the reactionaries. No one hated the corrupt rule of the Guo Party more than him, so he told the information, but did not mention Qiu Chan. This matter was top secret.
"What! This is impossible!" Shi Ning was shocked.
The reason why Shi Ning didn't believe it was simple, because those who knew the address of the municipal party committee were all experienced comrades. He didn't believe that there would be anyone betraying the organization and comrades.
"This information is very reliable, you must think about it carefully!" Zhang Anren did not explain too much and looked at Shi Ning seriously. This old comrade knew his temper very well.
Sure enough, Shi Ning saw Zhang Anren's determined look and slowly began to think.
The Jinling Municipal Committee just changed its address this year. There are 19 staff members and 5 security personnel. In addition, there are 7 committee members who know the address.
"Is there any newcomer? It shouldn't be the problem with the old comrades." Zhang Anren deduced.
Shi Ning seemed to have thought of something, but he looked like he couldn't believe it. Although this person was new, he was older than him and held an important position.
"Secretary Shi, did you think of something?" Zhang Anren was anxious. How long had it been?
Shi Ning said uncertainly: "A new member came recently and Lao Wang was transferred. I was planning to announce it to everyone at the next meeting."
Zhang Anren looked ugly: "Does he know your cover identity and address, or the time of the next party committee meeting?"
Shi Ning shook his head: "He doesn't know my identity. Because you are responsible for intelligence work, the organization allows you to contact me in critical moments. The specific time of the meeting is notified at short notice. You know it, Lao Zhang."
Zhang Anren breathed a sigh of relief. The other party only knew the address of the Jinling Municipal Committee and did not know Shi Ning's identity and address. Otherwise, the situation would have been serious. Fortunately, Qiu Chan's information came in time.
"Secretary Shi, how has this person behaved since he came to Jinling? Has he ever lost contact?" Zhang Anren continued to ask. He had to eliminate every doubt.
Shi Ning closed his eyes and recalled for a while, then affirmed: "No, everything is normal, that's why I didn't think it could be him."
Zhang Anren thought for a while and asked, "When was the last time you met him."
If that person had become a traitor before meeting Shi Ning, Shi Ning would have been arrested long ago, so it is only possible that after the two met, the other person became a traitor somehow.
Shi Ning said with certainty: "It was almost five days from the 27th of last month to today, and he went on a special mission after that."
Zhang Anren was a little embarrassed. He knew that the other party's mission must be confidential, and according to discipline, he was not allowed to ask.
Fortunately, Shi Ning took the initiative to introduce: "It's not an important task, just to purchase some books. Schools in the southwest are in great need of teaching materials."
"Then when do you agree to meet, and how do you contact him?"
"Tomorrow, at the municipal party committee, we will agree on the time and place for the next meeting every time we meet."
Zhang Anren felt that the problem might lie in this. The other party became a traitor after being arrested. The secret service headquarters decided to arrest Shi Ning and other municipal party committee staff tomorrow.
As for why he was arrested and why he was considered a traitor, it is unknown.
Zhang Anren felt that this traitor was too abominable, and he suggested: "Lao Shi, the problem now is to withdraw the comrades of the municipal party committee, otherwise the losses will be too great."
Shi Ning agreed: "It's good to know where the problem is. The municipal party committee has already prepared the evacuation channel, which can be used now. You go back quickly and leave the rest of the work to me."
Zhang Anren left in a hurry. Shi Ning put on his clothes and hat and left home. He walked a long way and got into a rickshaw and gave an address.
When they arrived, it was an old yard. When the neighbors saw Shi Ning, they greeted him one after another, but they called Lao Zhang. This was the evacuation safety point set up by Shi Ning.
Shi Ning entered the yard, closed the door, and moved the firewood away from the kitchen. A hole suddenly appeared, and Shi Ning got in without hesitation.
After a long tunnel, Shi Ning appeared in the warehouse of a newspaper office. This newspaper office is the seat of the Jinling Municipal Party Committee. Everyone used their identities as workers and editors to live in the newspaper office, and people came and went inconspicuously.
When the security personnel noticed that the secretary suddenly came out of the emergency exit, they immediately knew something was wrong. They quickly took out a Zirada and rushed to the gate to guard the situation.
"Inform everyone to destroy the documents immediately, prepare for emergency evacuation, and evacuate to various safe points according to the pre-planned plan. You must be quick!"
"yes!"
Under Shi Ning's command, the municipal party committee staff burned the documents in an orderly manner, crushed the ashes, packed up their personal belongings, and got into the hole one by one.
When they arrived at the evacuation point, Shi Ning went out and walked around and found that everything was normal. Then he ordered everyone to disperse and evacuate, and he locked the door and left calmly.
On the way back, Shi Ning wiped the sweat from his head. It seemed that he would pay more attention to safety and security in the future. This time he was in danger, which was the result of his trusting the traitor.
If Zhang Anren had not learned this information in time, the Jinling Underground Party and Municipal Committee would probably have been wiped out. No one can afford this consequence.
In the secret service headquarters, Xu Enzeng asked Wang Aofu: "Is there any problem with tomorrow's operation?"
Wang Aofu patted his chest and assured: "Director, although the bastards in the Secret Service are unwilling to help, I have found the elite soldiers of the 23rd Division. I dare to guarantee with my head that there will be no problem."
