Ma Xiaoguang stood up and asked Yoshioka Noritake sincerely: "I wonder where I can go to get information?"
"Guangfu Road, Zhabei...go and find out the defenses of the 88th Division of the National Army in that area, and also go to a dead mailbox to get some information..."
Yoshioka Noritake lowered his voice and said mysteriously.
"This... well, please rest assured, Director Yoshioka, I will do my best..."
Ma Xiaoguang hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and agreed to Yoshioka Noritake's request.
"Yo Xi, he is indeed the intelligence agent for the development of 'Weaver Girl'... The location of the dead mailbox is in the hole in the wall behind a house at No. 151 Guangfu Road..."
"After getting the information, send it to the nearby contact point as soon as possible. That contact point is a grocery store called "Hongda"..."
Noritake Yoshioka introduced his mission to Ma Xiaoguang in detail.
Ma Xiaoguang silently wrote it down in his heart and recited it several times.
"Here is one hundred yen, which is a reward for your investigation... We will not treat anyone who is loyal to the empire badly, no matter who they are."
Noritake Yoshioka took out an envelope from his desk drawer and gently pushed it to Ma Xiaoguang.
He took the envelope unceremoniously and pinched the thickness in a serious manner - to confirm that Noritake Yoshioka was not talking nonsense.
Ma Xiaoguang solemnly put the envelope away.
After standing up and solemnly saying goodbye to Noritake Yoshioka, Ma Xiaoguang left the "Intelligence Joint Reconnaissance Station".
It was already midnight.
However, the sound of gunfire and explosions still came from the direction of Hongkou and Zhabei from time to time, which made people feel nervous from time to time.
Even though it is a concession, there are not many pedestrians on the street.
In the past, some places were still bustling at this time - in the words of some people, the nightlife had just begun.
No matter what happens now, it seems that we have to hurry up. The military situation is changing rapidly.
Ma Xiaoguang confirmed the direction, gritted his teeth, and walked towards Zhabei...
It's actually not that far from Nanjing Road to Guangfu Road, only about an hour's walk.
But this is wartime, and both warring parties must be guarded at every intersection. Even if I can pass the level based on my character, there is no guarantee that I will be hit by stray bullets...
Guns and cannonballs don't have eyes, and they won't go around Commander Ma just because he has pig's feet or is handsome.
Therefore, Ma Xiaoguang was not going to cross the bridge to Zhabei, but was going to find a place to swim across the Suzhou River from the West Suzhou Road opposite Guangfu Road.
The Suzhou River is only about fifty meters wide in the urban area, so swimming across it is not a problem at all.
And since it is summer, the water temperature is not bad.
Having made up his mind, Ma Xiaoguang looked for the main road and walked slowly for an hour, arriving at the riverside of West Suzhou Road.
On both sides of the river, there were only a few lights swaying in the dark night, as if they would be extinguished immediately if a gust of wind blew over.
Ma Xiaoguang squatted down carefully on the river bank and observed the surrounding situation - no one was following or following him, and Ma Xiaoguang felt a little relieved.
He took off his coat, pants, shoes and socks, put them in his press bag, and then found an oilcloth to wrap them up.
I picked up the oilcloth when I passed by a house just now.
Since you have made up your mind to swim, you naturally need to make some preparations.
Putting the bag wrapped in oilcloth on his head, Ma Xiaoguang tentatively entered the water.
Fortunately, although the water temperature is a bit cold, it is just right to cool down - this damn weather is so hot that it makes people panic.
In less than ten minutes, Ma Xiaoguang swam to the other side of the river, carefully observed the surrounding situation, and then carefully landed on the shore.
I found a secluded place to change out of my damp clothes, and put on the dry clothes, pants, shoes and socks in my bag.
After putting it on, I feel fine.
It just feels a little empty...
There is nothing we can do about it. Who would bring a change of clothes with them when they go out?
After packing up, Ma Xiaoguang rushed to No. 150 Guangfu Road.
Yes, you read that right, it’s No. 150.
Because Ma Xiaoguang no longer dared to go to No. 151 because he felt a dangerous atmosphere nearby.
After finding a hidden place to hide, Ma Xiaoguang carefully observed the situation on the road to recovery.
During the war, this was the Chinese border, so there should have been even fewer pedestrians on the street.
There was a beggar sleeping opposite No. 151 where he was going!
When I looked closer, I saw there was a late-night snack seller at the corner of the street...
This is what I saw. There might be an ambush in some house where I can't see it!
Judging from the way they acted, Ma Xiaoguang easily recognized those people from the Shanghai Municipality of the Military Intelligence Department.
My identity is the traitor agent codename "Cowherd" of Neon's "Joint Intelligence Investigation Agency". There is no way I can just go in like that!
If that were to happen, the task would not be completed, and neither side would be able to complete it!
The problem is that if you go back like this without obtaining information, you will make the "Investigation Station" group of people suspicious, and then the efforts of the lurking senior will be in vain.
Recalling the orders he received at the "Joint Intelligence Investigation Station", Ma Xiaoguang had already greeted all the female relatives in Yoshioka Noritake's family!
This is a "double trap". This is not to obtain intelligence, but to really die!
Temporarily giving up the strategy of forcefully breaking in, Ma Xiaoguang left the Guangfu Road.
Walking to Hengtong Road, he saw a public phone booth on the street, and Ma Xiaoguang walked in.
I tried it, but the phone line was still open, which made me feel a little relieved.
I dialed a number, the phone rang three times, and someone answered the phone!
"Master, are you okay with cutting?"
The person who answered the phone was actually a fat man.
"You are at home?"
Ma Xiaoguang wondered.
"It's late at night and the war is chaotic. Where else can I go if I'm not at home?"
The fat man spat on the other end of the phone.
"Okay, I won't bother you anymore. Let's talk about it when we meet."
After Ma Xiaoguang said that, he felt much more at ease and gently hung up the phone.
Half an hour later.
Ma Xiaoguang arrived at a private house on Xinmin Road.
After observing the surrounding situation and confirming that there was nothing abnormal inside, Ma Xiaoguang climbed in through the back window.
"Master, there's no need to be so talkative, right? It's like being a thief. This is the safe house you personally selected."
The fat man sat in the living room, lit a candle, and asked with a joking look on his face.
"In extraordinary times, you must be cautious...Fortunately you are here!"
Ma Xiaoguang sat down on the chair in the living room, took out the Hard Gate from his pocket and started lighting it.
While smoking a cigarette, he briefly told the fat man what he could about what had just happened at the "Intelligence Joint Reconnaissance Station" and the tasks he had received.
"It seems that the Japanese are quite cautious. No wonder they just delivered the information to Quail, and someone told me to go to Puji Hospital immediately..."
As soon as I came out of the hospital, I saw someone walking on my front and back legs with me. I estimate that you will contact me, so as promised, I will wait for you here. By the way, I got this for you..."
While reporting the situation, the fat man handed Ma Xiaoguang a hospital inspection report.
Ma Xiaoguang didn't look at it, but when he looked at it, his face turned green!
