Huanlong Road, French Concession, Tao's house.

Tao Yuansheng's condition has improved a lot, he got up early this morning, moved around the yard, and had breakfast with his wife and children.

Only his wife knows that Tao Yuansheng is leaving today.

And he can only leave first, and his wife and five children continue to stay and act as a cover, otherwise, Tao Yuansheng will not be able to leave at all.

At about half past nine in the morning, Tao Yuansheng and his wife said goodbye silently, dressed neatly, and came out of the house.

"Minister Tao, where are you going?"

Zhang Guozhen, who was in charge of the Tao family's guards, greeted him and asked.

"A friend, ask me to go for tea." Tao Yuansheng didn't bring anything, and got into the car empty-handed.

"It seems that Minister Tao's illness is cured."

"Yes, I've been lying at home for four or five days, and it's time to go out to breathe, what's the matter, does Captain Zhang plan to go with me?" Tao Yuansheng asked.

"No, I won't go, I can't understand what you cultural people say." Zhang Guozhen smiled, Tao Yuansheng's wife and children were all at home, he was really not worried.

"Drive well and protect Minister Tao's safety!" Zhang Guozhen gave the driver a shout and got out of the way.

"Captain, do you want to send someone to follow?"

"What are you shooting, this old guy didn't bring anything, his wife and children are also at home, do you think he is the one who wants to run away?" Zhang Guozhen glanced at his subordinates and scolded.

After the subordinate was scolded, he naturally didn't dare to say more, and went to continue to stand guard and patrol without saying a word.

……

"Team Zhang, why haven't you seen Minister Tao today?" Since Lin Shiqun handed over Tao Yuansheng to Chen Miao to be responsible, of course Chen Miao also had to take this responsibility.

Yang Chen took an arrest team and was on standby at any time.

However, it was Wu Yunfu of the Guard Corps who guarded and monitored Tao Yuansheng, and the relationship between the Inspectorate and the Guard Corps was not good.

The quality of the guard corps is not high, and they are often arrested for disciplinary violations, and the inspectorate has always been iron-faced and selfless, but Wu Yunfu believes that Chen Miao deliberately can't get along with him, so in the forest department, the relationship between the inspectorate and the guard corps is the worst.

Lin Shiqun really wanted to ease the relationship between Wu Yunfu and Chen Miao, but Wu Yunfu agreed to it in person, and he didn't admit it afterwards.

If it weren't for Chen Miao's efforts to restrain the Inspector Brigade from clashing with the Guard Corps, I am afraid that the relationship between the two families would be even worse than it is now.

"Minister Tao went out for tea with a friend." Zhang Guozhen didn't like to see Yang Chen very much, a small role in the past, he actually jumped up so fast, he was about to be on an equal footing with him, why, isn't it because he followed a person?

"Where did you go for tea?" Yang Chen asked subconsciously.

"I don't know, I didn't ask."

"You didn't ask?" Yang Chen's face changed slightly, where did the person being monitored go, Zhang Guozhen was so negligent that he let him go without even asking.

"The driver and bodyguard are my people, is there any problem?" Zhang Guozhen snorted coldly, very dissatisfied with Yang Chen's tone and attitude towards this question.

"Just two people?"

"Yes, isn't it enough for two people to look at one." Zhang Guozhen said, "My two subordinates are both experienced elites, and they can't compare with those under you, and no one can look down on them." “

"Zhang Guozhen, what do you mean?" Yang Chen heard it, Zhang Guozhen was sarcastic about his previous failure to arrest him according to this.

"Vice Captain Yang, if it's okay, why should I go, don't come to hinder me from doing things." Zhang Guozhen yawned, he was addicted to smoking, and he wanted to go back and take a puff to lift his spirits.

"The surname is Zhang, let's see!" Yang Chen also knows that he has nothing to say to people like Zhang Guozhen, if he does it, this is the French Concession, and if he doesn't get it, it will provoke the intervention of the French arrest house, and no one will be pleased.

"Phew, what the hell ......"

Zhang Guozhen looked at Yang Chen's departing back and took a sip of disdain.

……

When Wu Tianlin found Chen Miao, he and Xiao Qi were eating at a restaurant on Xiafei Road, and after sending the "gentleman" to the Sixteen Pu Wharf.

Chen Miao and Xiao Qi walked around Nanshi and bought some small things for daily life, basically buying them when they saw anything useful.

I don't know if I don't buy it, but I don't know when I buy it, and I really don't know that there are a lot of things at home.

When passing by Ruifuxiang, Chen Miao ordered a new set of clothes for Xiao Qi, Lao Cai and herself, isn't it about to be the New Year.

I bought it all the way, and I missed the point of going home for dinner, so I had to go to the restaurant.

Parking on the side of the road, they found a restaurant that looked good, and ordered four or five dishes at random, which they hadn't eaten a few bites yet.

I saw Wu Tianlin and Yang Chen hurriedly coming up from the staircase and going straight to the two of them.

"How did you two find me?" Chen Miao was very surprised, in the big concession, Xiao Qi was not driving a new car at home, how did these two know that he was eating here?

"Third brother, did you and Xiao Qi go to Nanshi this morning?"

"Yes, Xiao Qi and I went to the City God Temple in Nanshi to buy something, what's wrong?" Chen Miao nodded.

"You let our Nanshi guard captain Wang Ji'an bump into him, so we only knew your whereabouts and found you."

"Wang Ji'an, didn't I meet him?" Chen Miao recalled that he hadn't seen Wang Ji'an today.

"You didn't see him, but he saw you, saying that you and Xiao Qi drove an old Citroen car, wandering around the City God Temple to buy things, probably because he was afraid that people would recognize him, so he didn't go up to greet you." Wu Tianlin explained.

"Oh, that's right, so how do you ......"

"Wang Ji'an thought that you were doing something, so he secretly sent someone to watch it, and called 'Lin' to remember, so we found you so smoothly."

After Chen Miao understood the ins and outs, he was a little secretly frightened, he was found out, but he didn't notice it, which was enough to make him vigilant.

In the future, whenever you go out, you really have to pay attention to the surroundings.

Maybe I neglected to buy something, so I relaxed.

"What's the matter, you can't wait for me to go back, and let you come here like this." Chen Miao asked, if it wasn't for something particularly important, Wu Tianlin and Yang Chen wouldn't come over together, you know, one of them was working as a supervisor, and the other was with a capture team, ready to arrest Tao Yuansheng at any time.

Now they are all out of their posts.

"Third brother, something is wrong, Gao Zongwu and Tao Yuansheng left home almost at the same time today, but now they are all gone."

"Missing, kidnapped?" Chen Miao had already guessed, but she still pretended to be surprised.

"It's hard to say, but now all the people who can be scattered on No. 76 have been scattered, and the stations, docks, and various checkpoints in and out of Shanghai have all moved." Wu Tianlin reported, "Minister Zhou personally instructed that people must be stopped, and they must not be allowed to take half a step out of Shanghai." ”

"It's a big deal now, these two people are the future members of the new government, Mr. Wang's ministers, if something happens, then who can take care of it!" Chen Miao said.

"Sit, will we be implicated?" Yang Chen asked cautiously.

"What do you say?"

"......" Yang Chen smiled stupidly, that smile was really more ugly than crying.

Although it is said that the guards of the Tao family are in charge of Zhang Guozhen of the First Action Brigade of the Guard Corps, and Tao's disappearance is mostly due to Zhang Guozhen's negligence and carelessness, he is also responsible for the real investigation.

Even Chen Miao strictly speaking, he must be held responsible, after all, Tao Yuansheng's side Lin Shi*** is responsible for him, Tao is missing, and as the person responsible, even during the holiday, he is also responsible.

"Don't worry, this matter has nothing to do with you if it is seriously investigated." Chen Miao said to Yang Chen, "I'll go to the director to ask for guilt." ”

"Sitting ......" Yang Chen was moved, and when Chen Miao said this, it was tantamount to stopping all the responsibility on himself.

"Alright, have you two eaten?"

"Not yet."

"Then add two pairs of dishes and chopsticks, and go back together after eating." Chen Miao smiled, beckoned the two to sit down, and asked the guy to take two pairs of dishes and chopsticks, and make two more dishes and send them over.

……

"Director, it was because I wasn't vigilant enough that I let Tao Yuansheng slip away from under my eyes and nose." After Chen Miao finished eating, he went back to No. 76 to find Lin Shiqun to ask for his guilt.

"You know all about this?" Lin Shiqun was surprised.

"It was Wu Tianlin who told me, although I asked for leave, but the director handed over Tao Yuansheng to me, and I have the responsibility to ensure his safety and nothing happens." Chen Miao nodded.

Lin Shiqun sighed: "This matter has nothing to do with you, I originally suggested that Mr. Zhou immediately take house arrest measures against Gao and Tao, but Mr. Zhou has a deep friendship with the two, and he refuses to give this order, if we do it without authorization, then something will happen, and we are the ones who are responsible." ”

"Director, Gao and Tao are the core members of the negotiation team, if they escape from Shanghai, it will inevitably have a huge impact on Mr. Wang's great cause of peace and national salvation, and I suggest that if the interception is unsuccessful, necessary remedial measures can be taken." Chen Miao said.

"You go back first, I'll think about it......" Lin Shiqun raised his eyes slightly and looked at Chen Miao, and said lightly.

"Yes."

From the conversation with Lin Shiqun, Chen Miao judged that he obviously didn't know whether Gao and Tao had left Shanghai, and through what channels they left Shanghai.

That is to say, the "Queen" this "rescue and retreat" operation was completed smoothly almost without alarming No. 76, this "Queen"'s planning and command ability is indeed extraordinary, it is really admirable, she may not be a key part of her plan, but after this incident, she should let down her guard and trust herself.

Sure enough, it was time to contact in the evening.

Chen Miao received a telegram from "Queen" asking him to meet with the Catholic Church in Fulu at half past nine tomorrow morning.

He burned the message.

but fell into deep thought.

Gao and Tao had obviously left Shanghai, otherwise, "Queen" would have sent an order to meet with him.

But his instincts told him it wasn't over yet.
