Chapter 11: Initiative
Chen Miao knows that the person who can be regarded as his weakness, Liang Xueqin is counted as one, Xiao Qi is also counted as one, as for Lao Fan, that is his comrade, a different concept.
Chen Mingchu knows some of his relationship with Liang Xueqin, and he knows a little about his internal staff, including Zheng Jiayuan.
He didn't intend to hide the relationship on purpose.
He and Liang Xueqin have a relationship, on the one hand, they have similar interests and are difficult to find, and on the other hand, he also needs to use this relationship to cover up some things.
Most of the early members of the military command were from gangs, and they were only formalized later in training, but the bad rules and bad habits of the gangs were inevitably left behind.
In particular, some middle- and high-ranking members of the military command are eating, drinking, prostituting, gambling, and smoking a lot of cigarettes, and they are all full of five poisons.
The reason why No. 76 was able to pull some people off the horse so quickly was that in addition to the lack of faith and determination of these people, there was also the fact that they couldn't resist the temptation of beauty and money. Confuse.
If you behave too well with these people, I'm afraid that no one will be willing to get close to you.
But if you're like them, it's different, at least they'll agree that you're the same kind of person they are, and they're willing to share some of their secrets with you.
This is human nature, and it is also reality, lurking silence does not mean doing nothing, this is a technical job.
Chen Miao is not good. Lustful people, plus he is also bound by organizational discipline, so he can't do things that are out of line.
Therefore, he must maintain this relationship with Liang Xueqin and continue to disguise himself, but he must also keep a certain distance.
Chen Mingchu is greedy for money, loves power, and Cao Lijun has some contradictions, he wanted to rely on Wang Tianheng, go further, but was suppressed by Cao Lijun, resentful, and later Wang Tianheng was driven away by Boss Dai, Cao Lijun hated him for taking refuge in Wang Tianheng, gave him small shoes, and had a hard time for a while, and also looked for him to drink and complain.
Therefore, Cao Lijun has not had a good life in Shanghai for a day, and Chen Mingchu is not a broad-minded person, if he is lured by No. 76. It's no surprise that he pulled into the water.
Chen Mingchu was originally a very utilitarian person.
The news brought by Wu Xin said that mentioning that Chen Mingchu and Ding Mohan conspired to attack Liang Xueqin really caught his weakness, but this also shows that there are sources in the Shanghai District of the Military Command in No. 76.
There is also what Wu Xin did not say, that is, Chen Mingchu used Liang Xueqin to threaten himself, so this is an opportunity to break into No. 76 without a trace.
Before the movie was finished, Chen Miao came out of the movie theater, called a rickshaw, and returned directly to the Oriental Hotel.
……
No. 71 Maiyang Road, very close to Chen Miao's rented house.
This is an alternate office location for Zheng Jiayuan, the district headquarters of No. 2 Aitang New Village in the French Concession has been exposed, and all the internal staff of the organs have been withdrawn in time to temporarily work in this place.
Coming down from the alley, Wu Xin paid for the car, walked into the dark area without street lights, walked about thirty meters, and stopped in front of a door.
This is a shikumen-style house, and the house number is not clear, but it is a pair of brown copper rings on the dark red door.
After looking around vigilantly, Wu Xin reached out and pulled up the door knocker and gently slammed the door a few times.
I didn't hear any movement inside, so I saw a gap open in the door, Wu Xin walked quickly, and got into the door, and the door quickly closed.
"Well, what did he say?" The lights were lit upstairs.
"I was very reluctant and resisted the task, but finally agreed." Wu Xin sat down, put down the bag in his hand and said.
"This is normal, he just escaped from that Chen Mingchu, undercover is very dangerous, anyone will hesitate." Zheng Jiayuan poured Wu Xin a glass of water, "Come, drink saliva." ”
"I mentioned Liang Xueqin, he has a lot of mood swings."
"Well, this piano boss is both beautiful and artistic, and he is clean and self-conscious, he can get her favor, how many men can't ask for it, sometimes, I admire this kid, and I don't know how he did it." Zheng Jiayuan stood up and said.
"I told him the news that Chen Mingchu might have done something to Liang Xueqin."
"What did he say?" Zheng Jiayuan's tone was filled with a hint of curiosity.
"Didn't say anything." Wu Xin said, "But I can feel the anger and uneasiness in his heart at that moment, it seems that Liang Xueqin is his weakness." ”
"It seems that we still need to get to know this Liang Xueqin thoroughly." Zheng Jiayuan said solemnly.
"You don't believe him?" Wu Xin asked in surprise.
"The struggle behind enemy lines is so cruel that I don't believe anyone."
……
Night falls.
Chen Mingchu carried a suitcase and hurried through the square all the way into the Gao Yang Building, where Zhuang Ying, the secretary on duty in Ding Mohan's office, stepped forward to stop the person.
"Secretary Zhuang, I have an urgent matter to see Director Ding, please let me know."
"Section Chief Chen, wait a minute." Secretary Zhuang Ying got up very formulaic and nodded slightly.
After Zhuang Ying went in for a while, she came out and explained: "Section Chief Chen, please wait a minute, Director Ding has just come back from a party outside and is taking a bath, and it is expected that you will be able to go in five minutes." ”
"Okay." Chen Mingchu nodded, took out a handkerchief and wiped the sweat beads on his forehead, picked up the box, walked to the sofa on the other side and sat down.
When the five minutes came, Zhuang Ying got up on time to open the door and let Chen Mingchu in.
Chen Mingchu walked out of the office with a suitcase and saw Ding Mohan wearing a nightgown and slippers, just coming out of the bathroom.
"Section Chief Chen, is there anything wrong with this late hour?" Ding Mohan wiped the glasses in his hand with the corner of his nightgown, and asked after putting them on.
"Director Ding, we've found the cipher machine." Chen Mingchu said excitedly.
"Oh?"
Chen Mingchu hurriedly put the suitcase in his hand on the coffee table, opened it, and revealed a machine similar to a typewriter inside, and explained proudly: "Director Ding, come and see, Chen Miao is really smart, he actually played a game for us under the lamp, he thought we couldn't think of it, hehe......"
"That's what you found out from his office at the Jockey Club?" Ding Mohan asked.
"That's right, Director Ding, don't look at it as a typewriter, in fact, the mystery is in it." Chen Mingchu stretched out his hand and gently pressed it on the back, only to hear two soft sounds of "da-da", then took off the cover behind him, pointed to the complex structure inside, and explained, "Director Ding, look, this is a cipher machine, if you are not a knowledgeable person, you will really treat it as a typewriter, and it has all the functions of the typewriter." ”
"Then with it, will it be possible to decipher the confidential telegram sent by Chongqing to the Shanghai District of the Military Command?" Ding Mohan asked.
"It's not okay, there are people who can use him." Chen Mingchu said.
"Who's going to use it?"
"As far as I know, only Chen Miao can use it in the Shanghai District of the Military Command." Chen Mingchu said.
A hint of surprise flashed in Ding Mohan's eyes and said, "So, if we want to use this thing, we have to get this person?" ”
"This information has a timeliness, once the military command knows that this cipher machine has fallen into our hands, it will inevitably change the encryption program, although we have a cipher machine, but there is no encryption program, it will still be very difficult to decipher it." "But it takes time to change the encryption program, and we can grab that time." ”
"That is to say, before the military commander changes the encryption formula for cipher communication, find Chen Miao and decipher more cipher codes in Chongqing?" Ding Mohan is also an old worker, how can he not understand the truth here.
"It's just a time difference, and when the military dominates the chaos in Shanghai, we can start." Chen Mingchu nodded.
"So, we can't wait any longer, we have to do it right away." Ding Mohan understood what Chen Mingchu meant, after all, Liang Xueqin is a famous female artist in Shanghai, if this moves, the impact of public opinion will not be small.
"Tomorrow in Huiquan Building, Guangyu Society's mid-year book performance, Liang Xueqin won the 'Queen of Commenting' for three consecutive years, is a popular candidate for this year's summit, will inevitably perform on stage, and when the time comes, after Liang Xueqin's performance, quietly invite people back to No. 76, what do you think?" Chen Mingchu proposed.
"Yes, but you can't bump into Boss Qin." Ding Mohan thought about it for a moment and nodded.
"The subordinates understand, so let's arrange it."
……
Early in the morning, Chen Miao got up, changed into a cyan robe, borrowed an oil-paper umbrella from the guys at the hotel, and went directly to Tingxue Building.
He knew that Liang Xueqin would not open this mouth with him, so he planned to send it to the door himself.
Since Chen Mingchu wants to attack Liang Xueqin, then he wants to let Liang Xueqin in his sight, he knows very well that the gang at No. 76 can do everything.
The mid-year conference book is very important for the artists who evaluate the ball, which is not only about learning skills, but also about honor and livelihood.
For ordinary audiences, this is also an auditory feast, and it is also a pleasure to be able to listen to the competition of all the "ringing files" on the same stage in one day.
Therefore, the book tickets for this Huiquan Building were sold out early, and the price was 30% higher than usual, especially the location close to the performance stage required bidding.
"Third brother, why are you ......" Lao Cai, who opened the door, was a little surprised when he saw Chen Miao, he had never seen Chen Miao come to listen to Xuelou early in the morning.
Not to mention that today is such an important day.
"Lao Cai, is Xueqin up?"
"Get up, get up, I'll give you a go!" Lao Cai let Chen Miao into the back door, and then trotted all the way to the attic.
"Lao Cai, what are you running, where is the fire?" Qiao'er was about to go upstairs with a basin of water, and almost collided with the oncoming Lao Cai.
"Miss Qiao, the third brother is here."
"Third brother is here......" Qiao'er's eyes lit up when she heard this, she had already seen Chen Miao slowly coming behind Lao Cai, and greeted her with water.
"Qiao'er, I'm here." Chen Miao smiled slightly.
"Third brother, I know that you will not disappoint our Sister Xueqin."
"You can't let Qiao'er down, can you?" Chen Miao smiled.
"Yes!"
……
In the attic, Liang Xueqin didn't get up long ago, she was dressing up, today's conference book is very important to her, whether she can keep the honor of "Queen of Commenting", today's performance accounts for a lot of points.
"Why are you here, Qiao'er is really, I told her not to tell you." Liang Xueqin complained a little about Qiao'er's mouth.
"If Qiao'er doesn't say it, will I know?" Chen Miao said, "You have helped me so much, I should help you once." ”
"But your ...... hurt"
"Your medicine is very effective, besides, it hurts the left shoulder, and it won't get in the way." Chen Miao explained.
"It's going to get you in trouble."
"Maybe this is more of an opportunity for me?" Chen Miao smiled, "Didn't you always wish I could perform on the same stage with you once?" ”
"I'm afraid ......"
"What are you afraid of, with me, no one can snatch away your title of 'Pingdan' queen." Chen Miao laughed.
"Actually, what 'Pingdan' queen is not so important to me, if I always dominate this position and don't give others a chance, then I will be hated." Liang Xueqin said faintly.
"I'm here, you're not going to drive me away, are you?" Chen Miao coughed playfully and asked with a smile.
"Third brother, can you comb my hair for me?" Liang Xueqin picked up a wooden comb on the dresser and handed it over gently, looking at Chen Miao with watery eyes.
Chen Miao was stunned for a moment, and stretched out her hand to take it: "It is an honor for the third brother to be able to comb Xueqin's hair." ”
