Chen Miao was promoted to "major general".

This was the only one Lin Shiqun in the past in No. 76, and after Lin Shiqun was promoted to the Minister of Police, people were promoted to the rank of general one after another, and Chen Miao was not yet thirty years old.

Becoming a general before the age of 30 is not uncommon in the era of the Republic of China, but it is just rare.

Only after the establishment of the military rank system will it be much more difficult to actually confer the title of 'general', even if it is exceptional, it will be after the age of thirty.

Of course, the so-called "military rank" conferred by Wang's puppet government did not have much value to Chen Miao, and Chongqing gave him a lieutenant colonel.

Evening celebrations are indispensable.

Among these No. 76 directors in Shanghai, he and Fu Yewen were awarded major generals, and the rest were colonels, so he seemed to stand out from the crowd.

Chen Miao really didn't expect that Lin Shiqun would strongly recommend himself to the rank of "major general" in front of Zhou Fuhai, is this compensation for taking the initiative to let Wu Yunfu go, or does he have another plan?

This is unknown.

Chartered the Longqing Restaurant, except for the ones on duty from the Inspectorate and the General Police Department, all of them were called, and some of the friends of No. 76 were drunk, and the wine was drunk until more than ten o'clock in the evening.

I don't know how much alcohol I was poured into, and I don't even know how to get home.

Anyway, when he woke up the next day, he was already on the marching bed in his study.

Headache!

This is the after-effect of drunkenness.

got up and took a shower, shaved his beard, his mind finally cleared up a lot, and recalled in his mind that he was constantly persuaded by Tang Keming and others to drink last night, and he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.

These people are too capable of making trouble, and if they hadn't insisted on ending it earlier, these people wouldn't know how long it would have been.

"Little Seven."

"Hey, third brother."

"How much did I drink last night?" Chen Miao called Xiao Qi to him and asked.

"I don't know, I don't count, you drink too much wine, there are white wine, red wine, and beer......" Xiao Qi smiled.

"Forget it, it's all over, I'm like this, Xueqin hasn't seen it, right?"

"No, when I brought you back, Sister Xueqin had already fallen asleep." Xiao Qi pursed his lips and smiled.

"That's good, that's good......" Chen Miao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his drunken appearance was too damaging to his image.

"You followed me all the time last night, didn't you?"

"Hmm."

"I didn't say anything out of the ordinary, did I?"

"Nope."

"It's okay, you go down and take a look, is breakfast ready, I'm a little hungry." Chen Miao waved his hand and let Xiao Qi go down.

……

"Dong-A Daily" - "Chen Miao, Director of the No. 76 Inspectorate, Lin Shiqun's right-hand man!" ”

"News" - "No. 76, the second person, has finally surfaced. ”

"Shanghai Daily News" - "The closest friend of the Japanese Empire, Chen Miao, Executive Deputy Director of the Political Police General Administration of the Ministry of Police of the New Government"

Even its own "Daily News" put a photo of Chen Miao on the front page accepting the letter of appointment, accompanied by a bold black caption.

……

These newspapers report on themselves intensively, and in addition to chasing hot spots, there is obviously an unusual smell in them, which is like building momentum for themselves and secretly praising themselves.

Among them, there was a newspaper that surprised Chen Miao a little, it was "Ping Pao", which was run by Zhou Fuhai with his personal support, and was used to raise his flag and agitate propaganda.

"Ping Pao" actually published a commentator's article on it, which was full of praise for Chen Miao's performance in this celebration, and only mentioned a few words about the owner of No. 76, Lin Shiqun, the minister of the Ministry of Police.

There is obviously a suspicion of praising Chen Miao and secretly belittling Lin Shiqun.

Others express their opinions in the newspaper, this is freedom, but this article has very sinister intentions, in addition to disgusting Lin Shiqun, it also has the meaning of instigating discord.

This article was posted so quickly, and as soon as this event ended, the article was sent out the next day, obviously because it had been prepared for a long time.

He was sure that Lin Shiqun would definitely pay attention to the evaluation of the relevant activities in the relevant newspapers in Shanghai today, as well as the reports on him himself.

He will definitely see this report in the "Ping Pao", and he will also read the unusual taste from it.

Need an explanation?

Of course it does, although Lin Shiqun can see that Zhou Fuhai is playing to sow discord, he can't pretend that he didn't see it, he doesn't know, then he will take it as his own acquiescence.

If you change to a generous person, of course this is not needed, but Lin Shiqun is a generous person on the surface, but extremely narrow and selfish in his heart.

Therefore, after he saw this report, he thought for a while, then picked up the telephone on the table and dialed the Ye Mansion.

"Director, have you read today's newspaper?"

"Hehe, I'm reading, there are a few very good ones, especially the evaluation of you, which is quite high." Lin Shiqun's laughter came.

"Director, I don't know if you have a copy of the "Ping Pao" just published today, and on the first page there is a review article written by Editor-in-Chief Jin, titled "Tomorrow's Star of the Police Department"?"

"Well, I'm reading, it's very well written, Editor-in-Chief Jin has been the editorial director of "Central Daily", and his writing is first-class."

"Director, I think this article is a bit of an exaggeration, I can have today, that is all done under your care and guidance, director, if there is no trust and love from you, how can Sanshui have today's identity and status, this article does not mention your contribution to No. 76, but a lot of praise is piled up on me, there is a suspicion of misleading the public, I suggest sending a notice, asking Editor-in-Chief Jin to retract the manuscript, or, write another article to clarify?"

"Forget it, Sanshui, since it has been published in the newspaper, and then withdrawn, it is us bullying people, not to mention that people are saying good things to us, as for the inappropriateness of what you said, I don't think it's anything, the articles in the newspaper are exaggerated, this is their consistent style, as long as there is no deliberate slander, why should we hold on to a little mistake?" Lin Shiqun said with a smile.

"Since the director has said so, I will listen to the director." Chen Miao said.

"Sanshui, do you know Editor-in-Chief Jin?"

"I don't know, I've never seen it." Chen Miao said.

"Okay, I got it." After speaking, Lin Shiqun hung up the phone directly.

……

The editor-in-chief of Jin, named Jin Bai, is Zhou Fuhai's royal editor. With one of the pens, of course Chen Miao knows him, but people don't know him.

And this editor-in-chief Jin lives in Wanyi Fang, in the same alley as Chu Qingxuan's home.

Even if Jin Bai knew him, it would be impossible for him to tell Lin Shiqun that he knew him. With the pen stick, I am afraid that it will attract greater suspicion.

Chen Miao has always been cautious and tries his best to maintain his relationship with Lin Shiqun, only if Lin Shiqun trusts him enough, he can get what he wants in No. 76.

"Third brother, Miss Mingzhu asks to see you." Lu Wei came in and said goodbye.

"Please let her in." Chen Miao commanded.

"Sit." Chen Mingzhu walked in wearing a police summer uniform, with a short-sleeved shirt on top and a bell skirt below, which was simple and clear.

"When there are no outsiders, it's good to call the third brother, although I belong to different camps with your brother, but after all, we have worked together and cooperated, I promised him to take care of you, and I can't write two 'Chen' in one stroke, you call me the third brother is not an insult to you." Chen Miao said while flipping through the documents.

"Yes, third brother." After a series of events and blows, Chen Mingzhu has long learned to restrain his emotions and tell lies.

No matter what the case really thinks, my brother's current identity is at least not a traitor, which is undoubtedly something worth accepting for her, if he really is, then it is best, if he is not, then I am afraid that he is no longer in the world.

If everyone is dead, then everything is over, and if an "undercover hero" is used to cover his coffin, it is actually quite good.

At least the family doesn't have to be labeled as a "traitor's family".

And she, I'm afraid that she won't have a chance to break away from No. 76 for the time being, maybe she will use her actions to prove herself and wash away the injustice she has suffered.

"You know that the position of the deputy chief of the first section of the General Administration of the Political Police is very important, and I have arranged you to sit in this position, just in the hope that you can help me master the General Affairs Section, as for your section chief, he estimates that it will take some time before he arrives, and you must familiarize yourself with the situation of the General Affairs Section during this time, and select our people for various important positions, understand?" Chen Miao didn't need to hint, she directly told Chen Mingzhu what she wanted to do, others might go to the informant, but she wouldn't.

"I understand, it's up to me to decide?"

"You report it, and I'll approve it." Chen Miao nodded.

"That subordinate understood."

"The Inspectorate will definitely be downsized in the future, after all, some functions of the Secret Service Headquarters will also be merged into the Ministry of Police in the future, and the level will also be reduced, so you can consider removing some people from the General Affairs Section of the Inspectorate, such as those you were familiar with in the past." Chen Miao said.

"Yes, third brother."

"I heard that you have been getting closer to Chu Qingxuan's younger brother Chu Nanyang recently?" Chen Miao asked.

"I went to Sister Qingxuan's house once as a guest, and I met Chu Nanyang at her house, and after that, I found out that he actually worked in our inspectorate, so I had a few contacts." Chen Mingzhu said.

"Is he pursuing you?"

"I guess so."

"And do you have a crush on him?"

"Can I not answer this question?"

"You have to answer, because your position is critical now, and you must truthfully explain your emotional problems." Chen Miao shook her head.

"I guess, at least not disgusted." Chen Mingzhu thought for a moment and said.

"Since you don't dislike it, let's try to get along, the two of you are the same age, you should have a common topic." Chen Miao smiled slightly.

Chen Mingzhu's cheeks flushed for no reason, and he bowed his head and said, "If the third brother doesn't have anything else, I'll retire first." ”

"You haven't said anything about me?" Chen Miao asked with a smile.

"Huh?" Chen Mingzhu was stunned for a while, because Chen Miao suddenly asked such a question, she forgot the purpose of her coming.

"We have already overspent a lot of money on our budget this month, and if there is no money coming in, we may have to live with our belts in the next six months." Chen Mingzhu said.

Sure enough, an event spent a sea of money, and it was necessary to find a way to fill the hole.
