Cao Lei looked at the jade pendant and said, "Yeah, I heard that bald priest said that this is called an exchange of tokens. Anyway, he and I are in a fake marriage, and this token doesn't count. It's annoying to me just looking at it."
"That"
Yan Xiaoqing wanted to pawn the jade pendant, but she couldn't. She wanted to return it to Cao Lei, but she couldn't find a reason.
Seeing Yan Xiaoqing holding the jade pendant swaying unsteadily and hesitating to speak, Cao Lei pretended to be disgusted and said, "Take it! Don't you like Xiao Linzi? Even if you can't get his person, you still want to get something from her. . We parted this time and I don’t know if we can meet again in the future. It’s just a thought of leaving something behind. When you meet someone you like again, you can use this jade pendant in exchange for my bracelet."
"That money, when you paid for the car just now, I saw that your wallet was already empty." Yan Xiaoqing said.
"Money is a small issue. I am not a young lady after all. The jewelry on my body will be enough for us to spend for a while. Besides, we are the Eighth Route Army and have no need for jewelry or anything like that." Cao Lei said cheerfully.
Yu Qiuyan also came over at this time and took out two oceans and some French currency from her pocket, "This is all my belongings. I originally had a few dollars in the cabinet, but it's a pity that we left in a hurry and didn't have any money." take!"
"I only have a few cents left!" Yan Xiaoqing said and wanted to touch the money.
"No need! You keep this money for yourself first. Everyone of us must carry some money with us now, otherwise it will be difficult if we are left alone! Haven't you heard that a penny can stump a hero?"
Yu Qiuyan blinked, stared at Cao Lei for a while, and said, "Cao Lei, you just said you wanted to pawn jewelry, but where do you have any jewelry now? Didn't you give your only bracelet to Xiao Linzi? ?"
"There's more!" Cao Lei said, unbuttoning all the buttons on her clothes, revealing her red bellyband, "Who has a knife, scissors, etc."
"I have!"
Yan Xiaoqing handed over a dagger.
Taking the dagger, Cao Lei made a slit in her bellyband and poured out two rings.
He took the ring in his hand and rubbed it, "Pawning one should be enough for the three of us to travel."
Two rings, one emerald and one ruby, both beautiful.
I, Yu Qiuyan, took one and played with it carefully for a while before returning it to Cao Lei, "It's so beautiful!"
"I don't like this kind of sparkling jewelry. It's not restrained at all and does not suit our status as an intelligence agent."
"I asked you why you never change your bellyband. It turns out there is a mystery in it." Yan Xiaoqing said.
Cao Lei scratched her head and said sheepishly, "I didn't mean to hide it from you. I was saying that I had some replacements, but my bellybands are all the same color."
"Okay, I get it! Now we should discuss what to do next." Yan Xiaoqing said.
"Everyone should move separately. Let's walk around first, check the terrain, and then see if there are any markers that can be connected."
"If you find out, don't rush to contact us first. We can discuss it after everyone comes back." Yan Xiaoqing added.
"Okay, then let's go separate ways. It's about five o'clock now. Let's meet back on time at five o'clock."
In this way, the girls in the reporting group were temporarily separated.
This was the first time they acted alone since escaping from the listening station. Although they were all a little scared and nervous, no one showed their feelings. They just looked at each other at the door of the inn and went their separate ways.
In a teahouse not far from the inn, three people were sitting around a table by the window facing the street.
They are Shen Fang, Lin Dong, and Lu Feng.
Different from the beggar's dress yesterday, Lu Feng was disguised as a strong man today, wearing a mandarin jacket with cut sleeves, revealing his strong muscles, and he looked like a bodyguard.
Lin Dong and Shen Fang also changed their clothes and looked like a pair of siblings.
"Brother Feng, did you see any flaws?" Lin Dong asked after seeing the girls separated.
"You think I'm a god, you can tell it just by looking at me."
"Then shall we follow?" Lin Dong continued to ask.
"No, just let the local comrades do this! This place is no better than Xiangshan. Both the terrain and the culture are very complicated. It will be very troublesome for us to follow rashly." Lu Feng took a sip of tea and said.
After drinking the tea, Lu Feng stared at Lin Dong for a while and asked, "Xiao Linzi, you know there is a traitor among us!"
"Guess!" Lin Dong didn't tell the truth.
"Fake! Your expression betrays you!" Lu Feng said, still staring at Lin Dong.
"Really, I really guessed it!" Lin Dong continued to lie, but his eyes were slightly evasive.
"You can't lie to me. I've been doing intelligence work for more than ten years. If you say you're not lying, I can still tell." Lu Feng said with a serious expression.
"Yes." Lin Dong turned his eyes and began to look at Lu Feng. "When I was approaching the safe house, a comrade sent me a message via telegram, telling me that there was a mole and the operation was terminated!"
"You didn't lie this time!" Lu Feng said.
Lin Dong sighed inwardly, feeling that he still couldn't hide this from his old comrades.
Seeing that Lu Feng was no longer staring at him, Lin Dong quickly poured Lu Feng a cup of tea, "I thought it was you, Brother Lu, at first, but Sister Fang said you don't know how to send a report."
Lu Feng nodded, "Absolutely not. I really can't remember those long and short secret messages! However, you don't have a telegraph machine to receive telegrams."
Hearing this, Shen Fang smiled, then knocked on the table a few times in a very subtle way, and said, "I just sent a message to Xiao Linzi."
Lu Feng didn't notice Shen Fang's movements at first.
However, his memory is still very good, and he still discovered the obscure movements on Shen Fang's fingers during the playback of the scenes in his mind.
Lu Feng looked at Shen Fang and asked tentatively, "You were just tapping your fingers on the table to send a message?"
Shen Fang and Lin Dong nodded in unison.
"It's so secretive!" Lu Feng sighed and took a sip of tea. "It seems that I have to learn how to send reports, otherwise I may miss a lot of important information."
After finishing speaking, he looked at Lin Dong and asked, "What message did Xiaofang send you just now?"
"This...this" Lin Dong hesitated and couldn't say it, because the message Shen Fang just sent him was: Lu Feng is a fool.
"Tell me, I must not have said it nicely." Lu Feng asked.
"Well, I'm a little anxious to pee!" Lin Dong stood up as he said this, preparing to escape by peeing.
But just as he was about to leave, he felt a strong hand pressing him down, "Say? Your sister Fang said it! Just translate it truthfully. I promise not to take my anger out on you."
"Lu Feng is an idiot!" Lin Dong translated in a low voice when he saw that he couldn't escape. (End of chapter)
