Ma Xiaoguang left the Central Propaganda Department with a belly full of questions and a head full of question marks.
This matter is very delicate. If you send a message quietly to a few patriots, you can tell whether you believe it or not. You might be exposed in the future. Although you have nothing to expose, in the end, it will definitely be found out. Then, Before joining the Anti-Japanese War, I went to Tiger Bridge - not what I wanted.
Reporting to Director Dai and Lao Xu, it would be even more impossible for me to do such a thing. It would be a thankless task, and I would not be able to do it if I had to give birth to a son in the future. In the end, the Chairman of the Left and Right Committee was lucky enough to be safe and sound, but it was a pity that the great traitor Wang Zhaoming was not killed.
Pretending not to know, lying down and letting the situation develop is the most hopeless solution, but when I think of the inhumane persecution that these patriots will suffer after being caught, my mouth feels bitter for no reason, and my heart aches...
It has been more than half a year since he traveled to the Republic of China. Ma Xiaoguang has been going smoothly. This time, he really felt at a loss. Moreover, he could only keep this matter in his heart, and neither Miss Liu nor Fatty could discuss it.
I returned to the newspaper office with my heart full of worries. When the witness was presented to me, the editor-in-chief of Lian Lian Shi still had a dead look on his face. He just nodded. Ma Xiaoguang was not in the mood to say more to him and went back to his work station.
Now I can only take one step at a time. I still have a month to collect more information, think of ways to deal with it, and see if I can make a slight change on the original historical trajectory and try to save a few patriots.
Back at No. 65 Hubei Road, MISS Liu Ye was just coming back with a lot of documents, along with Xiao Lu and Lao Liu.
"So much?" Boss Ma looked at this large amount of information, his scalp was numb and he had a headache.
"Not only from the Secret Service, but also from foreign banks. Business is getting better and better now." Lao Liu answered for MISS Liu.
"Hard work, hard work!" Boss Ma said apologetically. During this period of time, he has been wandering around. Although he is not as idle as before the special training, he has not dealt with specific matters seriously. Many trivial things are burdened on MISS Liu (Wu Qiuyi) There seems to be something wrong with this little woman.
"Thank you for your hard work. I'll cook tonight and let's try something new..." Boss Ma said proactively.
"The relationship is good, cook more dishes and add more meat!" This was not Wu Qiuyi's voice, but it was Lao Li and the fat man who opened the door and came in. The one who spoke was naturally the big-mouthed Lao Li.
"I'm going to do some work. Call me for dinner." Wu Qiuyi became embarrassed, her cheeks were slightly red, and she hurried upstairs. Female agents are said to have good psychological qualities. For some reason, this little girl has been blushing recently. Could it be Qiu Huhu? so good?
There are many people, so naturally we can cook more dishes. For dinner, Chief Ma personally cooks Sichuan cuisine, including twice-cooked pork, fish-flavored shredded pork, boiled pork slices, mapo tofu, watercress fish...all are authentic Bashu home-cooked dishes. This move surprised everyone. At this time of year, the regional distinctions between tastes are still very clear, unlike in later generations. Jinling, located in the south of the Yangtze River, can actually eat such authentic Sichuan cuisine. Everyone is hooked. Even MISS Liu eats more for the first time. I ordered a small bowl of rice, while several other foodies ate it up, even the soup mixed with the rice.
After the meal, Miss Liu went upstairs to handle official duties, Xiao Lu washed the dishes, and a few slackers drank tea, smoked and bragged in the living room.
"Hiccup... Boss, your skills can match those of Fatty." Lao Li burped and praised.
"Absolutely, so-so." Boss Ma said with rare humility.
"Not bad, but the taste is a bit spicy. I guess that place will be uncomfortable tomorrow." Lao Liu said with some worry while recalling
"No, not authentic Sichuan food, and you didn't eat hot pot." The fat man also ate to his heart's content. It was rare that he didn't talk about gossip and only talked about the food, and he also explained to Boss Ma.
"Have all the training personnel been withdrawn? Have the personnel been arranged?" Commander Ma brought the topic back to business and asked Lao Li first.
"We have all been withdrawn, and arrangements have been made according to the commander's request, but this time the enemy is a bit cunning..." Lao Li still answered seriously when talking about work.
"It's okay, just follow the rules, avoid exposure first, safety first." Commander Ma warned.
"Fat man, after you finish interrogating Oda Renji, put on a disguise in two days, and then go and keep an eye on Qixia Temple..." Chief Ma then ordered the fat man.
"Pretending to be a monk?" the fat man asked in confusion.
"Being a monk is your old profession. I have found a relationship with the head boy to get you to work as the back cook of Qianfo Zhai. This has a bright future. This vegetarian restaurant is more expensive than Ma Xiangxing..." Ma The chief ordered.
"Old Liu, let's make some business arrangements. We'll be busy in the next half month." After Chief Ma finished talking about Fatty's work, he quickly turned to Old Liu before Fatty could talk to him. He was afraid that Fatty would ask about what happened behind Su Zhai. It would be bad to bring out Li Mengyun's affairs - it does not comply with the principle of confidentiality.
After chatting with his brothers for a while and asking them to let themselves go, Chief Ma made a pot of Tieguanyin and carried him upstairs to the study.
In the study room, Wu Qiuyi was immersed in her work, but she was a female agent, not a female clerk. When she heard the noise behind her, she turned around instinctively. When she saw it, it was Chief Ma. She looked at the teapot and tea set that Chief Ma was holding, and her face was a little faint for no reason. red.
"Ahem, Sichuan food is a bit greasy. It would be better to drink some green tea after a meal. And drinking green tea in autumn... This tea is neither cold nor hot and can eliminate residual heat in the body." Chief Ma put down the tea set and poured a cup for Wu Qiuyi.
"Good tea, mellow and sweet..." Wu Qiuyi praised as she took a sip of the tea in her cup.
"Thank you for your hard work during this time. You know that since I was discharged from the hospital... I have a headache when I read the text." Chief Ma sincerely thanked Wu Qiuyi for his hard work.
"It doesn't matter, you are the commander now, some dangerous things cannot be done like before..." Wu Qiuyi seemed to be in a state at this time, and instead persuaded Commander Ma.
Just like many ordinary women, Wu Qiuyi sat down and repeatedly told Commander Ma to take care of his personal safety and never take risks again. If he had any good intentions, everyone - ah no, A bunch of brothers are counting on this old man to make a fortune.
Commander Ma listened attentively with a pious look on his face, without any trace of impatience, as if he was back in his childhood when he came home from school and his mother was beside him nagging...
I don’t know how much time passed, but Wu Qiuyi’s mouth felt a little dry as she spoke. Chief Ma immediately picked up the teapot and refilled her tea.
Looking at the teapot in his hand, Chief Ma suddenly remembered a famous saying by a master named Gu: "Men are like teapots, and women are like teacups. It is natural that a teapot should be paired with several teacups, and a teacup should be paired with several teacups. A teapot is a no-no."
As soon as Commander Ma saw the teapot and several teacups, he thought of Master Gu's famous sayings. As a person who has escaped from vulgar taste, a flash of inspiration immediately occurred to him - how to help several patriots deal with the aftermath of assassinating traitors, he already had an idea in his mind. To care.
The next day, the brothers all accepted the assignment and went about their work. Ma Xiaoguang also continued working at the magazine.
Not long after I got to work today, I saw Editor Shi rushing to the main office and saying, "Xiao Ma, pack up and go to the Ministry of Education. There are students petitioning. You and Lan Muxi go there..."
Lan Muxi is a journalist who has just arrived, so he is usually the one who does this kind of unlucky job.
Why? Because there is no oil or water in it. Editor-in-Chief Shi personally led the team when interviewing industrialists, movie stars, etc. There were red envelopes available for them. This kind of dangerous job of interviewing student petitioners, of course, was the turn of two newcomers, him and Ma Xiaoguang.
The Ministry of Education of the National Government is located at No. 51 Chengxian Street. It is far or near from the newspaper office. It takes nearly 40 minutes to walk. However, after discussing with reporter Lan, the two decided to walk there. The newspaper office's funds are tight and many advances are needed. It's hard to reimburse. It's hard for these two grown men to squeeze into a rickshaw. They can only use the No. 11 bus. It's not a good job anyway.
The two of them walked slowly for nearly an hour before reaching the entrance of the Ministry of Education. They saw that the entrance was completely dark. Judging from the situation, there were probably hundreds of people.
The students are all wearing the uniforms of their respective schools. Most of them are boys, and occasionally there are a few girls who are also wearing simple and clean school uniforms. This is not like in the dramas of later generations where all the female college students are dressed up to show off their curves like Mr. Huang. Bilu.
The students still followed the rules and held a sit-in in front of the education department with banners. Most of the content of the banners was "Stop the civil war, unite with the outside world, unite to resist Japan, and regain lost ground..."
The policemen only maintained order with batons, and there were no tense scenes with live ammunition or tense situations yet.
Seeing this situation, Ma Xiaoguang breathed a sigh of relief, but Reporter Lan was a little disappointed and said: "There's no fight?"
"Why do we have to fight?" As a newcomer, Ma Xiaoguang had to ask, otherwise he would be able to show that his seniors were capable.
"If we don't start a fight, we won't have anything to write about. We will just sit quietly and petition every day..." Reporter Lan said angrily.
"If we get started and you take a few more photos, then I'll come up with a title - A fight broke out on Chengxian Street, and the troublemaking students shed blood... This will ensure that the newspaper will sell better the next day." Reporter Lan forwarded Said with eyeballs.
But at this moment, a thin official wearing a navy blue Chinese tunic suit came out of the gate with his head peeping out, holding a tin speaker in his hand.
After making sure that the students were not impulsive and that their personal safety was not in danger, the official stood at the gate, picked up the loudspeaker and said loudly: "Students, thank you for your hard work. Brother, I am Bai Weilie, the chief of the clerical section of the General Affairs Section of the Department of Higher Education... …General Manager Wang and the government are aware of everyone’s wishes. You should go back first and the government will give you a reply…”
"It's like this every time. We don't have any special demands. We just want to stop the civil war... unite to resist Japan..." A leading young student stood up and said impassionedly.
"Students, you are still young. As the saying goes, you must first settle down the domestic situation before fighting against the outside world..." Chief Bai was very familiar with such official articles, so he immediately started with a paragraph.
Students have heard this kind of cliche a lot since the September 18th Incident, and some of them have memorized it. Before Chief Bai Gu finished speaking, another tall and muscular boy with a short haircut and a northern accent stood up and said: "We are working in vain again. After all that, we have to pick up a gun and fight with the little devil... Let us see the chairman of the committee and give us an explanation today!"
"Yes, we can't listen to their deception anymore!" A student shouted from below. The crowd started to get noisy and the crowd started to move.
Seeing this situation, Reporter Lan became more energetic and said quickly: "Xiao Ma, quickly find a higher position and take some panoramic shots. I will record it..."
Ma Xiaoguang originally thought that he was in the way, so he just slipped away. As for students' petitions, such things are common nowadays, and he was just a soybean when he came to interview.
Seeing that the students were getting more and more excited and the situation started to get out of control, Chief Bai started to sweat on his forehead and could not go back - Shangfeng pushed himself out to jack up the cylinder. As soon as he ran away, he had a scapegoat, and he immediately became a temporary work.
Chief Bai was talking with a tin trumpet and his mouth was dry. The buzzing below was getting louder and louder. Some of his words started to be a little extreme, and the situation started to get a little out of control. However, everyone remained calm and restrained and did not take action.
At this time, a stone flew out of nowhere and hit Bai Gangzhang's forehead without any bias. Immediately, a big bag bulged up. Then another shoe flew out of nowhere and also hit it squarely. On Bai Guchang's face - the national soldiers were not so accurate in throwing grenades. In an instant, Bai Guchang's eyes flashed with stars and he fell down immediately.
When the police officers maintaining order saw this, some joined hands to form a human wall, and some held batons and prepared to rush into the crowd to look for the attackers.
At this time, someone could only be heard shouting: "Oh no, I'll kill someone..."
Another voice shouted: "The police are beating someone, run away..."
The students who were originally quite restrained and orderly began to become a little chaotic. At this time, several stones hit the police in front of the education department, and some rotten vegetable leaves, rotten eggs, etc. began to fly everywhere...
With a bang, the scene immediately became chaotic!
"Students, don't make a mess, we are here to petition!" The young student who was leading the group was shouting, but the loud voice was quickly drowned out.
"Don't be impulsive..." The voice was a bit shrill, but it was the voice of a female student.
However, because there were too many people, a few rational people could not stop the collective unconsciousness of most people. The scene became increasingly chaotic, with flying stones, rotten eggs and shoes everywhere, and the muffled sound of police batons hitting people everywhere. and screams, as well as sharp police whistles and car sirens in the distance.
Ma Xiaoguang took a few photos casually, just to do some errands, and secretly ran to the corner opposite the Ministry of Education gate and slipped away quietly. As for Reporter Lan - a dead Taoist friend but not a poor Taoist, now he is a newcomer Xiao Ma, and he is not Commander Ma is a wise and powerful man. If he really wants to fight ten of them one by one to rescue him, then he will be looking for trouble himself.
Turning around a back alley, he immediately took a shortcut and started running, only to see two students, a boy and a girl, flashing in and running away with Ma Xiaoguang.
