However, before departure, Zuo Zhong had one important thing to do, which was to meet Zhu Jiahua, the old principal of the Hangzhou Police School. On their trip to Shanghai, they had other tasks besides changing trains, which was to escort the old principal.
Zhu Jiahua was entrusted by the Military Commission to go to Shanghai to meet the German General Seeckt. Zuo Zhong and the action team accompanied him to protect his safety. As for the return trip, the East China District of the Secret Service was responsible. Zuo Zhong and the others continued to Zhejiang to perform their tasks.
Regardless of whether it was a nominal master-disciple relationship or for the smooth progress of the mission, Zuo Zhong had to meet with Zhu Jiahua, such as to discuss the date of departure, the number and background of the entourage, and the itinerary to Shanghai, etc.
Before, Zuo Zhong thought that if Dai Chunfeng was finished, he would join Zhu Jiahua. He didn't expect to have a chance to meet him so soon. After studying the old man's resume and hobbies, Zuo Zhong bought some special gifts, hoping that he would not be kicked out. come out.
Jinling Chibi Road is a short alley where Zhu Jiahua’s home is located.
Early that morning, Zuo Zhong's car stopped at the entrance of Chibi Road. He walked to door No. 17 with a few thick books and rang the doorbell. A servant opened the door and saw Zuo Zhong, who was a little confused.
"Sir, who are you looking for?"
"My name is Zuo Zhong. I used to be a student at the police academy. I'm here to see you today. Please let me know."
The servant looked at the well-dressed Zuo Zhong, who did not look like an ordinary person, so he closed the courtyard door and went to report. Zuo Zhong was not in a hurry. He observed the passers-by nearby and found that there were many Europeans. Thinking about the nearby embassy, I feel relieved.
It's just that Zhu Jiahua lives in a place like this, which is not conducive to security work and keeping his whereabouts secret. If he sets off from here, the news will spread to half of Jinling in less than half an hour.
It seems that he has to persuade the old gentleman to cooperate with his actions. I hope that President Zhu will listen to his advice. However, since he can become a professor of the Geology Department of Peking University, he should respect the professional opinions of professionals.
At this time, Zhu Jiahua was reading in his study. This had been his habit for many years. He had been doing this during the revolution in the previous dynasty. Even on the battlefield in Wuchang, he still kept reading. In the words of Marshal Huang, we need more educated youth to build a new country. .
When he heard the servant say that Zuo Zhong was here to see him, he thought about the chairman's instructions on the phone, and smiled and asked the servant to welcome Zuo Zhong to the dining room, just in time to see what his student was like.
Although Zhu Jiahua is a doctor who studied in Germany, he still has the way of thinking of a Chinese literati in his heart. He pays attention to seeing things from the small to the big. He prefers to use some small tests to test the younger generations. For example, he used this trick against Fu Sisheng back then.
Fu Sisheng was once a student of Zhu Jiahua, but they were almost the same age. When he was invited to the dining room by Zhu Jiahua, he not only did not wait for the host, but wiped away the food on the dining table, and finally left.
The matter was rumored to be a joke for a while, and Zhu Jiahua also knew the character of Mr. Fu. He was a real celebrity in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. Later, Fu Sisheng became a famous cannon in the Republic of China, and there was nothing he dared not complain about.
Zhu Jiahua finished reading the book on hand, walked out of the study in a hurry, straightened his clothes and walked towards the dining room. But before he got there, he saw a man standing at the door of the dining room in the distance. He nodded slightly. It seemed that he respected his teacher. Taoist people.
Zuo Zhong stood outside the dining room and felt helpless. Dai Chunfeng liked to play this trick, and so did Principal Zhu. Couldn't these big men who were role models be more creative? It was hurting his legs and waist.
"Ahem." Zhu Jiahua came closer and coughed twice: "You must have a heavy left hand. You haven't had a meal since you came so early. Come in and have some breakfast with me."
After finishing speaking, without waiting for Zuo Zhong's consent, he walked into the dining room and sat down. Several servants brought in the meals that had been prepared, including yellow and orange millet porridge, pickled cucumbers from Guangling, and hot steamed buns. Mouthwatering.
Zuo Zhong walked quickly to the dining table, asked the servant serving the meal to leave, and personally served Zhu Jiahua a bowl of millet porridge, and served pickles and steamed buns on a small plate. After doing all this, he sat down at the bottom of the table.
Zhu Jiahua didn't say anything or stop him. He calmly picked up the millet porridge and took a big sip. Then he picked up the pickled cucumber and took a small bite. However, the steamed buns on the table didn't move at all. He didn't know why.
Zuo Zhong was not polite. He followed Zhu Jiahua's example and drank porridge and vegetables. However, he did not miss the steamed buns. He destroyed a steamed bun in just a few mouthfuls. In the meantime, he helped Zhu Jiahua fill another bowl of millet porridge and added some pickles. .
There was only the sound of two people eating in the dining room, and the servants had already left. Zuo Zhong knew that this was the rule of a wealthy family. It seemed that Principal Zhu had a Western education for his body and a Chinese education for his bones. He was very much like his grandfather at home.
Zhu Jiahua put down the bowl and chopsticks and wiped the hot sweat on his head with a towel. Seeing this, Zuo Zhong quickly drank a few sips until there was no grain in the bowl. Then he sat up respectfully and waited for the old gentleman's instructions.
"Zuo Zhong, you are good, very good." Zhu Jiahua suddenly laughed and pointed at Zuo Zhong and said.
Zuo Zhong stood up immediately: "Student Zuo Zhong has met the principal. Thank you very much for the hospitality."
Zhu Jiahua nodded and motioned for him to sit down: "Okay, this time you are here not only to see me, an old man, but also about the arrangements of the Shanghai team? Don't worry, your secret service is an expert, and I will follow your arrangements."
After sitting down, Zuo Zhong breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you for the principal's understanding. Students don't dare to arrange the principal's schedule. They only serve the principal from the perspective of safety and confidentiality. After all, General Sekter's visit to China is somewhat sensitive."
Zhu Jiahua said in surprise: "What do you know? This matter is highly confidential. Did Dai Chunfeng tell this proud disciple of yours? This is not like his style. I will ask him if I have the chance."
Zuo Zhong quickly denied: "General Seeckt became the central figure in the reorganization of the German Army after World War I. He also served as the commander-in-chief of the Wehrmacht and is known as the father of the Wehrmacht. Such a figure will surely attract much attention when he comes to the Far East."
In fact, after receiving the order, Zuo Zhong found information and learned about General Sekt. Bald Tou invited this man to come to China this time. In addition to considering the regularization and modernization of the army, he may have other thoughts, so he must obtain Zhu Jiahua's appreciation and trust, thereby obtaining more intelligence.
Zhu Jiahua sighed: "I regret a little. I shouldn't have listened to Mr. Chen at that time and gave the police academy to Dai Chunfeng, so that he could get a smart and capable student in vain."
Being able to see these things from a small thing made Zhu Jiahua very satisfied with Zuo Zhong's political sensitivity. He always advocated working with one's head down and looking up to see the situation. Zuo Zhong possessed these two points.
Suddenly his heart moved, and he said: "Zuo Zhong, are you willing to go somewhere and I will personally greet Mr. Xiao Chen? My old face is still a bit thin in the military committee. I guarantee that you will be a colonel within four or five years." "
Zuo Zhong looked like he was crying with gratitude: "Thank you principal for your kindness. You are the student's mentor. You should not refuse if prompted, but Director Dai is also the student's guide..."
Zhu Jiahua was silent for a few seconds, then stood up and left the table. Just when Zuo Zhong felt that the old man was about to get angry, Zhu Jiahua said coldly: "Come to the study with me, and don't waste the servants' time. This is not what a gentleman would do."
Zuo Zhong's heart returned to his stomach. The old gentleman was a particular person and could consider his servants, so he could understand his difficulties, although his tone was a bit cold and scary.
The two of them arrived in the study room one after another. Zuo Zhong respectfully presented the gift he had brought: "Principal, I know that you studied engineering in Germany. Here are some of the latest European and American academic works. Please take a look."
It was quite difficult to obtain these treatises. The number of such books published was small, and the publishing house did not pay attention to the Chinese market. Zuo Zhong searched many bookstores but could not find them. It was Ling Sanping who helped find a few copies from Shanghai.
At the mention of this, Zhu Jiahua became interested. He happily accepted the gift, put on his glasses and read it carefully. He even forgot that Zuo Zhong was still standing there. He read for more than an hour before he stopped and reluctantly closed the page.
After waiting for Zuo Zhong for so long, Zhu Jiahua's anger was almost gone. He was really thinking about Zuo Zhong. In his opinion, Dai Chunfeng's secret service would not end well, so he wanted Zuo Zhong to jump out of the quagmire. How could he know that Zuo Zhong Zhong didn't appreciate it.
Zhu Jiahua's tone softened slightly: "Shenzhu, since you don't want to go somewhere, forget it. If you have any difficulties in the future, you can come to me. After all, you are my student, and you have to leave three points of leeway in doing things. You Do you understand?"
Hearing Zhu Jiahua say his name, Zuo Zhong understood that this old gentleman was not a light-hearted person. It seemed that the other party knew his information and resume very well, so he wanted to draw him under the leadership of the Chen brothers and him. Bar.
The Secret Service has indeed become famous recently and has arrested many Japanese spies and party members. These people have three relatives and four friends. Once the role of the Secret Service is gone, will they attack them in groups? Yes, history shows this.
Zuo Zhong bowed: "Thank you sir for your teaching. The student will definitely remember this sentence and won't embarrass you."
Zhu Jiahua accepted this gift from him. This was the right thing to do. The meaning of his words just now was very clear. If the ship of the Secret Service sank, he would protect Zuo Zhong from being affected. This promise was not light.
Seeing that Zuo Zhong understood what he meant, Zhu Jiahua became even more kind: "Okay, you can call me husband from now on. That guy Dai Chunfeng will not be so domineering. You are only allowed to call him teacher, and you are not allowed to call me husband."
Zuo Chong smiled. They were both their senior teachers, so there were many things they could only say.
Zhu Jiahua's smile faded and he got down to business: "Welcoming General Sekter is of great military importance. I just said that I will follow your arrangements and the general's safety must be guaranteed."
"yes!"
Next, Zuo Zhong believed that he asked about General Sekter's entourage, the time of the ship's arrival in port, and his eating and living habits. The change of identity from assassin to protector made him understand that he must have the most detailed intelligence.
