French Concession, Mingde Bookstore, Xiafei Road.

Just after six o'clock, the closing sign hung on the doorknob.

One wore a felt hat, a canvas bag, and a one-piece suit, and his body was quite clean, looking like a tram driver or a miner.

Knock Knock......

The man came to the door, looked around, and found nothing abnormal, then reached out and knocked on the door of the bookstore a few times.

After a while, there was a sound from inside, but the light was not turned on, and then, the door was opened through a crack inside, and a pair of eyes were hidden in the room, and the faces of the people who came could be seen clearly, and they whispered: "Come in." ”

The person who came turned his head sideways again, looked around vigilantly behind him, and then reached out and gently pushed the door open, and he went in in a flash.

The door of the bookstore closed quickly and silently, and in less than half a minute, everything returned to its original state.

In a small room, under the dim yellow light, the man took off his felt hat, revealing a face with thick eyebrows and big eyes, although he had made up, he could vaguely recognize that this person was Mu Zongfang.

"Why are you here?"

The person who spoke was about forty years old, wore a shirt and a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and was polite and had the temperament of a scholar.

This person's name is Chen Jue, the nephew of the second "C", and the head of the Shanghai District of Zhongtong.

"Zo, our plan is progressing." Mu Zongfang sat down and reported.

"Oh, has White Snake found out where Professor Lan's house is?"

"Almost, tonight, White Snake was invited to Professor Lan's house as a guest, she will find a way to further contact Professor Lan, as for where Professor Lan lives, it depends on her ability." Mu Zongfang said.

"Wang Pseudo can't wait to control the finance of the occupied area, the issuance of currency is an indispensable step, Professor Lan is a well-known engraving plate making expert, if Wang Pseudo wants to print his own currency, a talent like Professor Lan is indispensable, if we want to sabotage their plan, or delay the process of their currency issuance, then the only way is to rescue Professor Lan's family."

"Excuse me, they won't let the Japanese design and make currency masters for them?"

"Professor Lan was recommended to Zhou Fuhai by the Japanese." Chen Jue said, "Professor Lan was deceived back to Japan by the Japanese from the United States, and as a result, he was used by Wang Pseudo, and now he can only do things for them, and is designing and engraving currency masters for Wang Pseudo." ”

"This news should be known to the military commander for the first time, why would the above hand over this task to our central commander?" Mu Zongfang was puzzled.

"Because they can't do it, so they gave it to us to give it a try, who let us have such a trump card as the White Snake in our hands?" Chen smiled meaningfully.

"But the White Snake sent a message, let's be careful of that Chen Sanshui, he used the method of medical parole to get her out of prison, I'm afraid that the purpose is not pure, he probably wants to use him against us." Mu Zongfang said.

"This is inevitable, otherwise he would be so kind to protect the White Snake?" Chen Jue sneered, "However, it's not certain who will use whom, he wants to use the White Snake to catch us, why can't we take advantage of this opportunity to let the White Snake get close to Professor Lan, and then rescue people in one fell swoop?" ”

"That white snake ......" Mu Zongfang's heart moved, and he asked with some depression.

"The White Snake was introduced to Professor Lan by Chen Sanshui, if the White Snake has a problem, he himself can't escape the involvement, so once something happens and he is involved, what do you think he will do?"

"In order to protect himself, he will definitely prove the innocence of the White Snake."

"That's right, Professor Lan is only one person by White Snake's side, and the leaker can be White Snake or someone else." Chen Jue said.

"I understand, what about Chu Nanyang?"

"What do you think of Chu Nanyang?"

"He is a good seedling, but his temper is a little stubborn, and he is a little stubborn, but his feelings for his sister White Snake are very deep, and this can be used." Mu Zongfang said, "By the way, he recently fell in love with a woman named Chen Mingzhu, who is the sister of Chen Mingchu, the undercover agent of the military commander lurking in No. 76, it is said that Chen Mingchu exposed his identity and has a close relationship with her sister. ”

"Chen Mingzhu, I know, after Chen Mingchu's case, she was also placed under house arrest, she should have been screened and released?" Chen Jue was surprised.

"Well, not only was he released, but he was also appointed as the deputy chief of the General Affairs Section of the Political Police General Administration of the Ministry of Police, which is quite a hot position of real power, it is said that Chen Mingchu has a very poor relationship with Chen Sanshui on the surface, but in fact, they are sympathetic to each other in private, and the relationship is by no means ordinary, Chen Mingchu has no news since he returned to the military command, and at this time Chen Mingzhu was released and entrusted with a heavy responsibility, I am afraid that there is also an article here." Mu Zongfang analyzed.

"Of course, during this time, I was also studying this Chen Sanshui, and I found that this person is the most difficult to deal with in No. 76, one day, once he takes charge of No. 76, I'm afraid that all of us will be in trouble." Chen Juedao.

"Zoza, it can't be so serious, right?" Mu Zongfang opened his mouth wide.

"Chen Sanshui is the director of the No. 76 Supervision Department, he is different from others, he is an internal department, we also have such a department within ourselves, these people are people who specialize in investigating themselves, what is our attitude towards these people?" Chen Jue asked.

"Naturally, I stayed away." Mu Zongfang showed a look of disgust, no matter what kind of institution, the person who was embarrassed and investigated himself was unpopular.

"Yes, just stay away, but in No. 76, although not everyone likes him, the director of the Inspectorate, a large part of the people have a very good relationship with him, for example, Tang Keming of the Intelligence Department, Fu Yewen of the Confidential Department, as well as the General Affairs Office, and the Military Unification Department, isn't it strange that these departments are not afraid of the trouble of the Inspectorate to find them?"

Mu Zongfang nodded.

"Of course he is looking for trouble, and he has no mercy when he finds trouble, but why can he still make the people in these departments hate him?" Chen Jue said, "This is the cleverness and horror of this person's means, he either doesn't do it, and if he does it, he will convince the other party, and, first of all, he does it himself, and others naturally have nothing to say, so the inspectorate is the most decent and the most effective department in No. 76, and they are internal, if they are used to deal with us, you can imagine what the situation will be?" ”

After listening to this, Mu Zongfang shuddered a little.

It's a bit unbelievable that he's a villain, but it's a bit of an uprightness, is this a fact, or is it just an appearance?

But even the appearance is scary enough.

"As far as I know, the military commanders have planned to assassinate him at least three times, and each time they have failed, and some of them have even been stillborn." Chen Jue said, "This person has no shortcomings, it's not good. Sex, don't smoke a lot, don't like to dance, those people like to go to entertainment places, he will go unless he has to socialize, he will go, every day after work is the first time to go home, it's just a turtle, so you have nowhere to eat. ”

"If you want to kill him, you can't do it at all."

"It's not easy to kill him, which of those people in the military command doesn't want to kill him, but they are not alive and kicking?" Chen Jue said, "Don't think about these unrealistic things first, our task is to rescue and transfer Professor Lan's family out of Shanghai, as long as we can complete this task, we can file their prestige in front of the military commander." ”

"I see, district."

"Tell White Snake that her task is to find out where Professor Lan's family lives and their living habits, and try to do everything in detail." Chen Jue commanded.

"Understood."

"Also, when we meet in the future, don't come directly to the bookstore, give me a call in advance, and I will tell you the time and place of meeting on the phone." Chen Jue said.

"Yes."

……

No. 1136-12, Lane 1136, Yuyuan Road, Professor Lan's apartment, a dinner is quite harmonious, although Chen Miao is an agent, but his knowledge is not bad, and he is self-taught in many aspects.

You know, he was locked up here, and apart from working day and night, he could hardly find anyone with a common language.

Although Chen Miao is a spy, he knows how to carve seals, and it seems that his level is not low, which is a little incredible, Lan Yuhai is like meeting a bosom friend, and when he eats, he discusses it with Chen Miao.

As for seal carving, Chu Qingxuan can be said to know nothing, she didn't even have a chance to interject, so she could only quietly accompany Haruko Honma to say this.

They have something to say, for example, the art of flower arrangement, and the tea ceremony......

Only Lan Dong's little heart was greatly hurt, and none of the four adults seemed to pay attention to him and ignored him.

If it weren't for the fact that the dishes on the table were already cold, Lan Yuhai really wanted to keep discussing with Chen Miao.

After the meal, Lan Yuhai realized that he had taken care of discussing seal carving with Chen Miao this night, and forgot about the guest protagonist invited today, and hurriedly apologized to Chu Qingxuan, and said that he had prepared a thank you gift for Chu Qingxuan.

A bloodstone seal!

This is the work carved by the "ghost hand" Lan Yuhai himself, with the logo of Lan Yuhai on it, and if it is sold outside, it will cost thousands of yuan.

Not to mention, the bloodstone collection that Lan Yuhai took out was all in excellent condition, and this one, it can be used as an heirloom.

"Thank you, Professor Lan." This gift is quite precious to Chu Qingxuan, no matter how many people want to ask for it, they can't ask for it, and they got one very easily, and it is estimated that their father will be very happy to take it back, but this seal is his own name, and he can only collect it by himself.

"Director Chen, you also have a copy."

"Do I have it too?" Chen Miao was surprised.

"Of course, thanks to Director Chen's care, Lan should express his gratitude." Lan Yuhai took a small blue box and handed it to Chen Miao and said, "Director Chen smiled. ”

Chen Miao opened the box and saw that it was not a seal, but a peace buckle made of mutton fat white jade, took it out and put it in his hand, and rubbed it: "The best Hetian mutton fat white jade." ”

Lan Yuhai smiled slightly and nodded.

Chen Miao solemnly put it away and said, "In this way, Chen is disrespectful." ”

He already understood Lan Yuhai's intention of giving him this peace buckle, so naturally he didn't refuse, but accepted it directly.
