Chapter 6: Joints

After a thunderstorm, I woke up in the morning and felt less stuffy.

Not long after coming out of Tingxue Building, Chen Miao found out that she was a fart. There was a small tail behind him, and he wasn't sure where the other party came from, so he could only pretend that he didn't see it.

Wandering the streets aimlessly.

Following the fragrance, I entered an alley, where a breakfast shop set up an oil pot at the door, frying oil cakes, and the fragrance of green onions attracted the people nearby.

There is also a wonton stall on the side, and the cooked small wontons are rolled in the soup pot, scooped up, sprinkled with sesame seeds and coriander, and drizzled with a little sesame oil, which is called a drooling one.

Chen Miao felt a rumbling in her abdomen, although she ate some at Liang Xueqin's place last night, it was almost digested by now, and if she didn't sacrifice to the Five Organs Temple, it would have rebelled.

I bought two oil cakes, and sat down at the table set up next to the wonton stand: "Boss, let's have a bowl of wontons." ”

"Okay, sir, wait a minute."

After a while, a bowl of fragrant sesame oil wontons was served: "Sir, you use it slowly." ”

"Purr ......"

A steaming bowl of wontons entered his stomach, and the feeling of hunger in his stomach quickly disappeared, and he stood up with satisfaction and pressed a dime under the bowl.

Walking through the narrow alley and passing by a newspaper kiosk, Chen Miao stopped, he turned his head slightly, he knew that the tail had been following him all along.

"Here's a newspaper for today."

"What newspaper do you want?" The owner of the newsstand asked.

"Whatever, as long as it's today's newspaper." Chen Miao took out a cigarette and lit it.

The newsstand owner randomly pulled out a random piece of newspaper from a pile of newspapers that still exuded the fragrance of ink and handed it to Chen Miao, Chen Miao took it, threw a copper plate to the other party, and then the newspaper was clamped under his arm, and continued to walk forward.

In the morning, tea house, drinking tea, listening to books.

At noon, go down to the restaurant, and after being full of wine and food, take a bath in the free pool......

Leisurely like a small open.

……

On the road of the embassy, Yimin Bookstore.

Chen Miao made an appointment with Lao Fan to meet here this afternoon.

The time of the appointment was four o'clock, but it was already past four o'clock, Lao Fan still didn't see Chen Miao appear, he was a little anxious, such a joint, if the person did not appear after the agreed time, according to the discipline requirements of underground work, he needed to leave immediately.

Lao Fan knows Chen Miao very well, he looks like a fool on the surface, he looks unreliable, but in fact, he is very serious in his bones, and he is an extremely punctual person.

If he didn't show up in time, he would probably be in trouble, and in his current situation, if he was targeted by the special high school of the gendarmerie and the agents of No. 76, it would be a very dangerous thing.

No anomalies were found, and Fan decided to take a risk and wait five minutes.

Five minutes later, Chen Miao still didn't show up, Lao Fan knew that he couldn't wait, he had to leave immediately, chose his book, walked to the counter, and prepared to pay the bill and leave.

"Sir, can you give me this copy of Mr. Liang Qichao's "Academic History of China in the Past Three Hundred Years"?" Lao Fan just took the money out of his pocket, and a familiar voice came from behind him.

"I'm sorry, I saw this book first." Lao Fan didn't know about Chen Miao's lateness, so he politely refused, put down the money, took the book and walked out.

"Sir, I'm here today to buy this book from you, can you cut your love?" Chen Miao knew that she was late, and she had to find someone to talk to Lao Fan.

"I can tell you, I've already bought this book, and if you rob it, I'll call it a patrol!" Lao Fan has also known Chen Miao for many years, how can he not understand that in public, they must not know anyone, so as not to expose their identities.

"How about I triple the price?"

"Three?"

"Not enough, sir, don't be too greedy, this book wouldn't be worth the price if I wasn't in a hurry, I think other bookstores in Shanghai should still have stock." Chen Miao snorted dissatisfied.

"Can you really triple the price?" Lao Fan's eyes rolled, quite moved, acting, can't you really come.

Chen Miao took out a few banknotes from his pocket and threw them on the counter with a "snap", which startled the bookstore owner, thinking that the two of them did not agree on a word, and this was going to do something.

"Two gentlemen, if you have something to say......

"Boss, borrow a place for you to talk." Chen Miao put away the banknotes and turned her face to threaten Lao Fan, "If you don't sell books, if you don't sell them, if you don't sell them, I'll leave?" ”

"Since this gentleman is a book lover, then let's discuss, let's discuss, please two of you, I'll make a pot of tea for the two of you." Lao Fan's face is shrewd and sleek, this Chen Miao can't be provoked at a glance, and Lao Fan looks like he should be a cultural person, and this cultural person is also a dead person, and he is not easy to speak.

The two went to a secluded corner of the bookstore, sat down, and the boss made them a pot of tea.

"You're late!" Lao Fan lowered his voice and said seriously.

"No way, when I came out this morning, I had a little tail behind me, and I had been following me for a long time, and I finally got rid of it." Chen Miao explained in a low voice.

"I was discovered by the agents of 76, why didn't they arrest you?" Lao Fan was surprised.

"It's not clear, maybe they want to put a long line to catch a big fish, but they haven't done it for the time being, Comrade Fan, what do your superiors say about my suggestion?" Chen Miao shook her head.

"The superiors think that this is too dangerous, and since your identity as a military commander has been exposed, it is recommended that you evacuate Shanghai immediately." Lao Fan said solemnly.

"If I withdraw now, all these years of hard work will be in vain!" Chen Miao objected without hesitation.

"It's not in vain, even if you change a position within the military command, you can still do things for the party and make contributions, you are an old party member, don't you understand this truth?"

"Or continue to be silent?"

"This ......"

"Silence, silence, what else can I do except silence, all these years, I haven't done anything, just wait, Comrade Fan, I don't want to spend time like this, now is an excellent opportunity, if we can successfully enter No. 76, then we can keep abreast of Wang Pseudo's movements, which is helpful to the overall situation of resistance against Japan." Chen Miao became emotional.

"Comrade Chen Miao, have you thought about it, if you are undercover No. 76, what will happen to your relationship with the military commander, once the military commander finds out that you have betrayed, you know the means by which they eliminated the traitor." Lao Fan said solemnly.

Chen Miao said: "I will find a way to let the military commander also send me to enter No. 76 as an undercover agent, so that I can infiltrate No. 76 as a military commander, and the problem will be solved?" ”

"You said lightly, how did you get the military commander to send you undercover No. 76?" Lao Fan sneered and asked, "Do you think that the military command was opened by your family, who are you Dai Yunong?" ”

"The military command of the Shanghai District was attacked by the Japanese secret service and No. 76 one after another, the intelligence of the two sides is not equal, if you continue the previous means of struggle, I am afraid that you will be eaten to death in the next struggle, this is not what the boss Dai in Chongqing wants, so he will definitely change his strategy, and the simplest and most effective way is to send an undercover agent to break into No. 76." Chen Miao said, "I know that the military command has always had this kind of plan. ”

"Even if Dai Yunong wants to send an undercover agent to break into No. 76, will he definitely choose you?" Old Fan retorted.

"He wouldn't necessarily choose me, but if I offered to be this undercover agent, he would have considered it." Chen Miao analyzed.

"You are crazy, volunteering to be an undercover agent, Dai Yunong is so suspicious and fickle, can he believe you?" Lao Fan expressed serious doubts, he knew Chen Miao's ability, the question is, can he be favored by Dai Yunong?

"It's man-made." Chen Miao said.

"What if Dai Yunong doesn't choose you?" Lao Fan asked rhetorically.

"Then you can rest assured, I can still figure out seven or eight points of his style and methods." Chen Miao said, "The situation of the military commander in Shanghai is so difficult, with internal and external troubles, he needs merit to keep his position in front of the old man." ”

"You are playing with fire, Comrade Chen Miao, don't forget your identity!"

"Did your superiors give me a specific task this time?" Chen Miao asked rhetorically.

Lao Fan's face darkened and he didn't answer.

"Since my superiors didn't give me a task, then I'll follow my own plan." Chen Miao smiled and said.

"What are you laughing at, you are still laughing, don't give me a hippie smiley ......"

"Comrade Fan, don't worry, if you have something to say, we are grasshoppers tied to a rope, besides, don't you think this is a good opportunity now?" Chen Miao said step by step, "If you miss it, it will be difficult to find such an opportunity in the future." ”

"Are you going to use the bitter meat trick, or do you just want to submit your name?" Lao Fan's face softened slightly, and his tone changed.

"I'm taking the initiative to surrender now, and they don't believe it, I want to wait for them to catch me first." Chen Miao said.

"I know your temper, once you decide, the nine cows can't pull it back." Lao Fan snorted, "Tell you, I lied to you just now, and the superior agreed to your suggestion in principle, but you have to think of all the details you can think of, and also, it is to improvise, if you find the danger of exposure, withdraw immediately." ”

"Really, Lao Fan, you didn't lie to me?" Chen Miao was overjoyed.

"I told my superiors that my superiors agreed to give you such a chance, otherwise, you will evacuate me immediately." Old Fan glanced at Chen Miao.

"Thank you, Comrade Fan, but I know, you must not have told your superiors that I proposed this idea of entering No. 76, right?" Chen Miao smiled and said.

"If I say you suggested, do you think your superiors would agree?"

"That's just as well." Chen Miao did not refute this, "Next, I estimate that this No. 76 should target my social relations, Chen Mingchu has been working with me for two years, and he knows me too well." ”

"Who do you think he's most likely to start with?" Lao Fan couldn't help but say.

"Hey......" Chen Miao was silent, he couldn't answer this question, because he didn't know the answer, but he knew it very well.

Of course, Lao Fan also knows.

"I'll do everything I can to keep her safe." Chen Miao stood up, her eyes were a little red, "I have to go back, I'm taking a bath in the free pool......

"You don't want this book?"
