The Dragon Boat Festival was naturally not just for entertainment, but also to create opportunities for Zhou Weiguo to leave.
So many pairs of eyes were staring at Zhou Weiguo. Even if Zhou Weiguo had been trained in this area, there was no guarantee that he would not make mistakes, so Duanwu used a trick to defeat the Japanese and then break them up, so that Zhou Weiguo would have a chance to leave.
After leaving the hotel, Duanwu and Zhou Weiguo left separately.
The Dragon Boat Festival is the main surveillance target, and the little Japanese spies naturally cannot throw away the Dragon Boat Festival.
So four followed Dragon Boat Festival, while the other two followed Zhou Weiguo.
However, with Zhou Weiguo's skill, the two Japs still wanted to follow him, and they got rid of them after going around a few alleys.
Zhou Weiguo came to a gambling house. After entering, he squeezed through the crowd and came to the back door.
After entering from here, there is a courtyard. The courtyard is not very big. There are several sturdy men staring here with their arms folded.
One of them asked: "What do you do? Why do you come to this backyard?"
"Find someone, Wang Zhongxin!"
Zhou Weiguo replied, several people looked at each other, and one of them asked: "What do you call sir?"
"Zhou Weiguo."
Zhou Weiguo replied, and the strong man quickly smiled and said, "It turns out to be Mr. Zhou. Please come with me. Mr. Wang and others are still inside."
"kindness!"
Zhou Weiguo responded and followed the strong man deep into the backyard.
This casino is very large. In the front is a place where gamblers gamble, and in the backyard is an office of Shanghai Zhongtong.
Of course, this is not the only office of Zhongtong, but one of many.
The strong man led Zhou Weiguo further into the backyard. There were also guards here, and there were more guards than in the front yard. There were only four guards in front of the backyard, but there were more than a dozen here.
The strong man in the front yard led the way, but the dozen or so people did not stop him.
Zhou Weiguo entered the attic, and after turning two rooms to the left, he saw two opposite doors.
The strong man knocked on the door and said, "Stationmaster, Mr. Zhou is here."
"Well, let him in."
A middle-aged man's voice came from inside the house. The guard outside pushed the door open, and Zhou Weiguo walked in.
At this time, a person walked towards him, it was Wang Zhongxin. Wang Zhongxin said with a smile: "Captain Zhou, why did you come here? You can let us wait."
At this point, Wang Zhongxin introduced Zhou Weiguo: "Captain Zhou, this is the chief of the Shanghai Station of the Central Unification Committee - Chief Xu Bowen."
Zhou Weiguo followed Wang Zhongxin's gesture and saw a middle-aged man with a somewhat bookish look.
"Hello, stationmaster Xu!"
Zhou Weiguo shook hands with the other party politely.
At this time, Wang Zhongxin introduced another young woman: "This is Miss Cao Yingcao."
"Hello, Miss Cao!"
Zhou Weiguo shook hands with him. Of course, he didn't know the relationship between Cao Ying and his eldest brother Liu Yuan. What's more, he didn't know that the Xu Bowen in front of him was the traitor who almost sacrificed his head to the Japanese.
At this time, Wang Zhongxin continued to introduce: "This is Director Wang Hai of the Shanghai Office of Military Reunification. He is my family, hahaha!"
"Hello, Director Wang!"
Zhou Weiguo shook hands with Director Wang.
Afterwards, Wang Zhongxin introduced two military commanders, and then everyone took their seats.
At this time, Xu Bowen asked: "Captain Zhou, I heard from Staff Wang that you went to see the Dragon Boat Festival last night, so why did you arrive now? We people have been waiting here for you all night?"
Zhou Weiguo laughed and said: "What? Does Station Commander Xu suspect that I have surrendered to the enemy and treason? Hahaha!"
Xu Bowen laughed coldly and said: "Haha, it's a joke, it's a joke. Captain Zhou's father is Mr. Zhou Jixian, how could he surrender to the enemy and treason? But, I heard that you brought an underground party with you this time? The underground party is all-pervasive, and the best is the rhetoric, so Commander Zhou, please don’t go astray?”
Zhou Weiguo understood clearly that Xu Bowen was not worried about the Japanese at all, but was still keeping an eye on the underground party.
However, Zhou Weiguo had no interest in partisanship from beginning to end. He has only one enemy, and that is the Japanese.
So Zhou Weiguo said: "I have no interest in the affairs between these parties. And I don't need to report to you what I do. I now take orders directly from the special commissioner. I think everyone should know that the Dragon Boat Festival special commissioner is The person in charge of this operation and all of us are just cooperating with the special commissioner’s actions.”
"The Sword Comes"
Zhou Weiguo's words silenced everyone present. Because indeed, the identity of Dragon Boat Festival's special commissioner is indeed very bluffing.
However, these people are not all scared, and many of them are old spies who have been engaged in espionage activities for many years.
So when I heard Zhou Weiguo's words at this time, most of them went in through one ear and out through the other.
Wang Hai said at this time: "Having said that, there are not many special agents stationed in Shanghai by our army. Recently, we have been asked to increase our efforts to infiltrate Japanese agencies, so this time, we can only do our best. If If we fight the Japanese head-on, I'm afraid our military commander won't be able to do much."
Wang Hai's words made Zhou Weiguo frown slightly, because this was not the result he expected. He had told Duanwu before that there was no way the Central and Military Commanders could gather around a hundred people. But from what Wang Hai said, I'm afraid they would dispatch fifty people, not even ten, let alone half of the burden.
Of course, Zhou Weiguo would never have imagined that both the military commander and the central commander would receive orders that were both obedient and violative.
In other words, to cooperate with the Dragon Boat Festival Operation, this is the order of the Chairman. But in fact, neither Boss Dai nor Director Du thought about trying their best.
So Wang Hai made an excuse, saying that he had no one.
The same goes for Xu Bowen. Although he said that he could dispatch 20 people, he had to temporarily mobilize them. Emphasizing that it is a miracle that they can survive in Shanghai, we can't just do nothing and just protect Duanwu?
Zhou Weiguo became more and more angry as he listened, and sneered: "Comrades, please forgive me for saying something you don't like to hear. You are really not as good as the underground party. At least what I heard over there was the word "go all out". .
Moreover, it is an order issued by the chairman of the committee for you to cooperate, right? And you should also know what the identity of Dragon Boat Festival is.
Also, I am not negotiating with you. Each of your families will give me fifty people and let me command them. Otherwise, I will report it directly to the special commissioner and ask him to come to see you in person, hum! Farewell! "
After Zhou Weiguo finished speaking, he left a strange smile, then stood up and left.
"this?"
Director Wang said this awkwardly, but Zhou Weiguo had no intention of staying. Because he still wants to see Chen Yi.
At the same time, Xu Bowen signaled to Cao Ying: "Go and see off Captain Zhou. Why does he have such a bad temper?"
