Naomi Ueno smiled coquettishly on the other end of the phone and said, "Hey, are you so polite? Are you going to do everything I tell you?"
Xie Xuan glanced at Li Junshi and said casually: "As long as it's business, I will definitely obey your orders."
If Li Junshi wasn't here, he would definitely be very presumptuous. After all, Ueno Naomi couldn't do anything to him over the phone.
Ueno Naomi said: "Last time I went to Suzhou with you, this time I want to go to Northern Jiangsu, you have to accompany me."
Xie Xuan hesitated and said: "Go to Northern Jiangsu? Is it...safe there?"
Naomi Ueno said angrily: "There are Nationalist and New Fourth Army troops everywhere. It's definitely not safe. If you don't have the guts, I'll go alone."
Xie Xuan said with a smile: "I'll go, if I can accompany Miss Shangmei on a business trip, not to mention going to Northern Jiangsu, even if I go through fire and water, I won't even frown."
Ueno Naomi said: "Okay, let's set out together tomorrow morning. I will come find you tonight."
"Ueno Naomi wants you to go to Northern Jiangsu?"
After Xie Xuan hung up the phone, Li Junshi asked.
Xie Xuan said: "Yes, I don't know what she is going to do. I can only risk my life to accompany the gentleman."
In fact, he really knew Ueno Naomi's intention of going to Northern Jiangsu.
Didn't Shancheng ask him to assist the 8th Jiangsu Security Brigade in surrendering to the enemy? He sent someone to contact Ueno Naomi in the name of the Eighth Brigade.
This woman has always wanted to do something great. With such a big achievement, she is naturally very interested.
But she didn't expect that she would call Xie Xuan.
The Eighth Brigade is stationed in Dongtai County, northeast of Taizhou and Yancheng, a coastal area.
As early as October last year, our party established the Dongtai County Anti-Japanese Democratic Government in Dongtai County.
In addition to the Eighth Kuomintang Security Brigade, which belongs to the activity area of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, Xie Xuan and Ueno Naomi are considered "Japanese puppets". Once they fall into the hands of the anti-Japanese organization, they will end badly.
Li Junshi said: "Since Ueno Naomi asked you to go, it's hard to refuse. You can bring more manpower when the time comes. It doesn't matter whether the thing can be done or not. The main thing is safety."
"Thank you for your concern, Minister."
In the evening, when Xie Xuan arrived home, Naomi Ueno was already waiting at the door. As expected, she came to see Xie Xuan.
Ueno Naomi also changed her hairstyle today. Her original wavy hair was cut and straightened, and her clothes were also changed into a school uniform with a blue top and black skirt.
She was also carrying a cloth bag, holding the cloth rope on the bag with both hands, and looked at Xie Xuan who got out of the car with a smile:
"Brother Xuan, I'm here to find you. Can you let me see how powerful you are?"
Xie Xuan asked: "It's not convenient to show my greatness. Have you eaten?"
Naomi Ueno immediately pretended to be pitiful, pouted and said, "I haven't eaten yet, but my stomach is already growling with hunger."
Xie Xuan said: "Let's go, I will take you to eat something delicious."
He really didn't dare to take Naomi Ueno home. The man lurking in the enemy camp must protect his innocence.
Xie Xuan took Ye Shangmei to Hongkou to eat Japanese food, and then sent her to Xinya Hotel.
Naomi Ueno didn't want to go in, so she took Xie Xuan's arm and said, "This time when we go to Northern Jiangsu, we are no longer brothers and sisters, we are husband and wife. You are my husband, and I am your gentle, kind, lovely and charming wife."
"Isn't that bad?"
"What's wrong? This will give you a reason to stand up when others bully me."
"If you were my sister, I would still stand up for you."
"That won't work. I'm afraid of being alone at night. I won't be able to sleep all night. Are you so cruel?"
Xie Xuan felt that his forehead was covered with dense beads of sweat: "I can keep vigil for you at night."
He felt that he was in danger during this trip to Northern Jiangsu.
On the way back, Xie Xuan first went to the military commander's death mailbox and issued orders to the personnel at Shenpu Station Three.
Later, he met Gong Bing again.
Xie Xuan said: "Tomorrow I will go to Dongtai County in northern Jiangsu, and together with Ueno Naomi, prepare to instigate Hua Zhongyang of the 8th Security Brigade of Jiangsu Province. This is an order from Yamashiro so that Hua Zhongyang's troops can reasonably fight against the Communist Party."
When Gong Bing heard this, he frowned: "Hua Zhongyang Department?"
Xie Xuan said: "If our party has someone in Hua Zhongyang, they can take the opportunity to pull out the troops. After all, he wants to be a traitor. At this time, he is justified. Of course, he can also take the opportunity to break into the puppet army, endure the humiliation and bear the burden, and contribute to the future Qingxiang and anti-Japanese Make a greater contribution.”
"I'll report to my superiors right away. Are you going to lead the radio station this time?"
Xie Xuan shook his head: "My radio station must be kept by Ueno Naomi, so it is difficult to have the opportunity to send a report. Of course, if the situation is urgent, you can also send a report."
When Naomi Ueno was in Suzhou, she was very wary of him. If she were to know that Xie Xuan could send reports skillfully, it would definitely aggravate her suspicion.
Gong Bing muttered: "Tomorrow morning, we will meet again. When the time comes, I will tell you Dongtai's contact information."
Xie Xuan said: "This time, I need more than three dead mailboxes, more than two liaison officers, and at least one contact point. In addition, the radio station's password book will not be changed, and the same one from last time will be used."
Time was urgent. He had already memorized the last codebook and had only used it once. If he wanted to change the codebook again, he would need time to remember it.
Tomorrow he will set off with Ueno Naomi, and he must not reveal any flaws.
After all, remembering an irregular codebook is not an easy task.
"I will convey your request, but I won't be able to reply until tomorrow whether my superiors will agree to it."
Early the next morning, Xie Xuan met with Gong Bing again and obtained the locations of three dead mailboxes in Dongtai County, as well as the passwords of two liaison officers and the password of a contact point.
Later, Xie Xuancai drove to the Xinya Hotel to pick up Ueno Naomi.
This time when he went to Northern Jiangsu, Xie Xuan also changed his clothes specially. He had always been wearing suits before, but today he changed into a Chinese tunic suit, which was still half-worn but not new.
The original leather shoes were replaced with cloth shoes.
Naomi Ueno smiled and said: "Why are you driving? Are we going to drive to Northern Jiangsu? With your license plate, people will know that you are a spy."
"We have to go to the bus station, right? Can we walk?"
Ueno Naomi said: "You drive your car home first and put it away. We will take a rickshaw to the bus station."
In the morning, a couple came to the Shenpu long-distance bus station. The man was in a Chinese tunic suit and the woman was in a school uniform. It was Xie Xuan and Ueno Naomi.
They bought long-distance bus tickets to Yancheng. After getting on the bus, they sat next to each other.
After the car set off, Naomi Ueno looked out the window from time to time, her eyes full of longing and joy.
After Ueno Naomi got tired of watching, he rested his head on Xie Xuan's shoulder and said softly: "It would be great if there was no war. Then I will definitely marry you and give you a lot of sons."
"If it hadn't been for the war, we probably wouldn't have known each other."
"Yeah, so I have this war to thank."
