Zhou Sen went back and changed his clothes to attend Ando Shenghou's reception banquet (which was actually a shock banquet). Naturally, he couldn't wear a police uniform because it was too informal.
He was not the protagonist tonight, so naturally he couldn't dress in a way that would overwhelm him, so he chose a half-worn coat.
Ando Shenghou's identity is somewhat sensitive. The senior officials of the Kwantung Army naturally attach great importance to his safe return, but it is not appropriate to celebrate wildly. After all, this matter is indeed not suitable for widespread publicity.
But if something happens to one of these people, it will really have an impact on everyone's future, especially Lieutenant General Ogisu Tatehei, the commander of the Sixth Army on the Hylar front.
The banquet in the evening was as low-key as possible. Those who could be invited to attend were the top brass of the Japanese army in Bingcheng and a senior staff officer from the Kwantung Army Staff Department named Tsuji Masanobu.
Zhou Sen, who was at the main table, was not qualified to sit at the main table. Of course, he did not expect to sit there and be watched by a group of "devils". It would be too embarrassing.
There was someone he knew at his table, Satoshi Yamamoto from Agent Hart, and Ono, Saburo Shibuya's adjutant.
He and Yamamoto Satoshi had a big feud, so naturally they ignored each other. They were both offended anyway. It was impossible to expect him to change his view of him.
As for the other people, he didn't know many of them, but after Ono's introduction, they seemed familiar to them.
When we meet in the future, at least we won’t not know who the other person is.
Halfway through the meal, Ando Morihou personally came over to toast Zhou Sen and Anna, which felt a bit flattering.
And he also saw a strong sense of jealousy in Yamamoto Toshi's eyes.
In his opinion, this credit should belong to the dead Sato, but it was a pity that Sato was killed by a tiger.
An outstanding soldier of the empire who had studied special operations in Germany died tragically before he could make any achievements.
What a pity.
Yamamoto Toshi attributed all this to Zhou Sen. If he hadn't won the competition, how could such a tragedy have happened?
The hatred shown by Yamamoto Toshi made Zhou Sen secretly vigilant. This guy's unconcealed hostility might lead to conflicts with him in the future.
It's not a problem to have such an enemy staring at you. You have to find a way to solve this hidden danger.
It seems that Front serves as a consultant to Agent Hart...
Kawai Sadayoshi, the head of the Military Police Special High School Section, was not familiar to him before, but he had only heard of his name. He was a lunatic who was obsessed with arresting anti-Japanese elements.
This guy seemed to be very interested in Zhou Sen. He clinked glasses with Zhou Sen twice at the table and even verbally invited him to be a guest in the extra-high school class.
Zhou Sen naturally agreed. Whether he would go and when he would go was another matter.
The dinner was almost over after an hour, and Zhou Sen would definitely not participate in any programs after that.
There is a "beautiful lady" like Bai Yulan in the family who needs comfort. How can he put those vulgar fans in his eyes?
Get in the car and go straight home.
…
Pao Tui Street, "福" Ji grocery store.
"Comrade Poporov, Zhou Sen is back, the train last night." Jiang Rou sat in front of Poporov.
"We have received relevant information. His current identity is a top-secret intelligence agent of the Communist International. He is an important chess piece for us to penetrate into the Japanese special forces. Your mission has changed. There is no need to test him anymore. And this contact point can no longer be used. I will notify you of the new contact point," Poporov said.
"Should I reveal my identity to him?" Jiang Rou was silent for a while, and then asked hopefully.
"No need for now," Poporov said.
"Okay, I understand." Jiang Rou nodded with some disappointment, stood up quickly, and left.
…
Not long after Jiang Rou left, Poporov also quickly left the "Fu" Ji grocery store. He went around several roads and made sure there was no tail behind him before entering a hotel and got into a black car through the back door. car.
Yaojing Street, Consulate General of the Soviet Union in Ice City, Office of Deputy Consul General Salman.
Poporov knocked on the door and came quickly.
"The new leader of the 'Coming to Europe' team has arrived in Ice City." Poporov reported immediately after seeing Arman.
"Is it him?" Salman asked.
"yes."
"It seems that we failed to connect with him here. On the contrary, General Pishkov got in touch with him after we got there. This is something worth celebrating for us." Salman He said with a slight smile.
"Then how should the next work be carried out, and in what direction should the work of the 'Coming to Europe' group be carried out?"
"The 'Lai Europe' team is a secret strategic intelligence team in Ice City and even Manchuria. Its mission is to provide strategic intelligence that can determine and influence the international political situation and the direction of the war at critical moments. He usually lies dormant, collecting and analyzing Intelligence will not be easily contacted by us, but every time it is sent out, it is important and key intelligence, with greater autonomy. We generally do not issue specific tasks, but now it is different from the past. We now have secret contacts and negotiations with Japan. We need to find out the real situation inside them..." Salman said.
"But, he just came back, can he have access to this core information?"
"He may not be sure, but he is not the only one in the 'Come to Europe' group. He is a person who has passed the test of General Pishkov. Do we still need to teach him this?" Salman said with a smile.
"I understand, do you need some contact?"
"Of course, we almost met at the beginning of the year, but missed it due to various reasons. We can't miss it this time." Salman nodded.
"Inform Lao Qiang that this time, I need his help."
"Okay." Poporov nodded.
…
After sending Anna home, Zhou Sen returned directly to Ningxiang Hall. For him, Ningxiang Hall is his home now.
He obviously didn't want to live in the house he used to live in anymore, so he majestically entered Bai Yulan's small building. This would be an unmarried woman from a good family.
"One Sword Dominates"
I'm afraid I won't agree to anything.
However, Bai Yulan had already been married once, and now she and Zhou Sen were already confirmed, and they had even received a marriage certificate issued by the government.
Legally, they were a serious couple. There was nothing wrong with living together. It was just missing a ceremony.
Both of them have no elders. If there is a wedding, there will definitely be no problem on Bai Yulan's side, but there will be some trouble on Zhou Sen's side.
It's not that it can't be done, but once it is done, Shibuya Saburo and others must be invited to participate. This Bai Yulan has never interacted with the Japanese before, not to mention that Lao Ma's death in the past had a great relationship with the Japanese, Bai Yulan just doesn't He likes the Japanese, but the reason why Su Wenqing doesn't like him is because he colludes with the Japanese.
And Zhou Sen didn't want to hold a wedding, which would make Bai Yulan troublesome and unhappy. In addition, he himself didn't want to see a Japanese appear at his wedding and be the guest of honor. Then Saburo Shibuya would mention something to embarrass him. What should he do if he is asked to be a "witness" for example?
This will be a stain in the future.
He happily took a hot bath, put on the new bathrobe that Bai Yulan bought for him, and walked into Bai Yulan's boudoir with his slippers on. No, it should be regarded as a room for two people now.
Although the relationship has been established, living together and sleeping in the same bed still requires adjustment and adaptation.
"Yu Lan, I brought you some gifts. I was too busy last night to take care of them." Zhou Sen chuckled, opened his suitcase, took out a Russian matryoshka doll, and handed it to the woman lying on the bed. Bai Yulan said while flipping through the idle book.
"This thing is also sold in Bingcheng. There are many in Qiulin Department Store." Bai Yulan laughed, took it apart, and started playing with each one.
"That's different. Mine is absolutely authentic!" Zhou Sen said, "Moreover, this is specially made by me. Do you think this man and woman look like you and me?"
"What about the two children, a boy and a girl?" Bai Yulan asked with a smile.
"You are so smart, how can you not understand?" Zhou Sen chuckled and paused, "Of course this is our child. You just want to give me two children, preferably a boy and a girl. I want to name them all. Okay, the boy’s name will be Zhou Lan, the girl’s name will be Zhou Yu, and I’ll take your last name again.”
"What if I can't give birth?" Bai Yulan's cheeks turned red and she lowered her head shyly and asked.
"No, we are all still young and have no health problems. How could we not be able to give birth?" Zhou Sen sat up, put his arms around Bai Yulan's waist, and said with an expression, "Yu Lan, marry me, let me You have been wronged."
"Actually, Yu Lan is lucky to meet you."
"Then do we still need to thank the person who was the matchmaker for us?" Zhou Sen chuckled, and his fingers began to become dishonest.
Bai Yulan reached out and pressed the restless hand: "Xiao Sen, we have a long time ahead, okay?"
"Okay, but you have to help me..."
"You are really bad. Where did you learn these tricks?" Bai Yulan's earlobes instantly turned red like blood jade.
"Then will you help or not?"
"Just this once..." Bai Yulan bit her teeth lightly and hummed.
…
When he woke up in the morning, Zhou Sen opened his eyes and saw Bai Yulan sleeping soundly on his chest, feeling extremely satisfied.
From now on, I will be a man with a family and a career. I have to think twice before I act. I have to change my impatience when I was young.
He must shoulder the responsibility of being the head of the family, fulfill his rights as a husband, and be a good father in the future.
Although the real good days have not yet come, he feels that he is the happiest now. He will fight to the death against anyone who wants to destroy or take away his happy life.
"Xiaosen, don't leave me..." Bai Yulan muttered in her dream, as if she had dreamed of something bad.
Zhou Sen couldn't help but feel tense, and his arms tightened.
"嘤咛" sound.
Bai Yulan opened her eyes and looked up, and met Zhou Sen's eyes, which were open. Her hair fell down, and Zhou Sen reached out to push the black hair away from his eyes.
"Yu Lan, believe me, I will never leave you. We can grow old together." Zhou Sen said seriously and solemnly.
Bai Yulan was stunned for a moment, then a trace of mist rose in her eyes, and she took the initiative to kiss Zhou Sen's lips.
"Yu Lan, you are playing with fire!"
"I want to have a son, now!"
"This is what you said..."
