The environment of the cellar is naturally not as good as the office of Lu Chengzhou.

Cold, hungry, and fearful of the future.

Everyone huddled together to keep warm.

Fortunately, the air in the cellar is not circulated, and the cold air outside cannot run in, otherwise someone will definitely be cold after a night.

When it was almost dawn, Ji Minggao finally came back.

He was carried back by two Japanese military policemen, who opened the cell door and threw him to the ground, and the Japanese military police left.

"Mr. Ji, are you okay?" Deng Zehua immediately walked over, helped Ji Minggao up, and asked with concern.

When he was holding Ji Minggao, Deng Zehua smelled a smell of blood.

"It's okay, I can't die." Ji Minggao said weakly.

Of course, Ji Minggao was not injured, he stayed in Miao Guangyuan's office all night, roasting the fire, drinking wine, and eating and drinking all night.

When he slept until almost dawn, Miao Guangyuan woke him up, tore his clothes, and sprinkled blood.

This blood is human blood, the Japanese got it, Tanaka grabbed a prisoner, cut a knife on the man's arm, took half a bowl of blood, and poured it all on Ji Minggao's body.

Deng Zehua thought about it all night last night, but the hunger and cold made his brain very clear.

There is only one question that worries Deng Zehua, is the North China Youth Association a real anti-Japanese organization?

From the moment he knew about such an organization, Deng Zehua firmly believed that this was an anti-Japanese organization.

However, this evening, Lu Chengzhou told him that the North China Youth Association might be a peripheral organization of the gendarmerie detachment.

This stunned Deng Zehua, and looking back on the process of joining the North China Youth Association, he became more and more suspicious.

The North China Youth Association is very high-profile, unlike ordinary anti-Japanese organizations, which are mainly hidden.

Not only can you openly read anti-Japanese books, but you can also openly discuss and shout anti-Japanese slogans.

Deng Zehua has always been immersed in this revolutionary atmosphere, he feels that this is the Anti-Japanese War, and the North China Youth Association is the anti-Japanese organization he has been looking for.

Last night, Deng Zehua was only suspicious.

But Ji Minggao opened his mouth just now, and he immediately affirmed his thoughts.

Ji Minggao had a faint smell of wine in his mouth, and Deng Zehua remembered that they didn't drink last night.

Deng Zehua was with Ji Minggao after getting off work yesterday, and the few of them ate pastries together.

At that time, it was Deng Zehua who paid the money, and he remembered it very clearly.

After dinner, he and Ji Minggao stayed together, and Ji Minggao didn't have a chance to drink at all.

In other words, the smell of wine in Ji Minggao's mouth came from after he was arrested in the gendarmerie detachment.

Under what circumstances can Ji Minggao drink wine?

Deng Zehua suddenly remembered Lu Chengzhou's words: What you see with your eyes and hear with your ears may not be true.

"Mr. Ji, are you injured?" Huang Guoping also walked over and said in surprise.

"It's okay, it's all skin trauma." Ji Minggao said disappreciatively.

When everyone heard Ji Minggao's voice, they all gathered around.

Only Deng Zehua silently retreated to the side.

"Rest assured, as long as we are united, the Japanese will not be able to help us." Ji Minggao's voice became louder and louder.

The main personnel of the North China Youth Association were arrested and sent to the military police detachment.

How to deal with the aftermath was the main issue he discussed with Miao Guangyuan last night.

Ji Minggao is the president of the North China Youth Association, and he certainly doesn't want the organization to disappear.

At present, the North China Youth Association is becoming more and more influential.

The destruction by the gendarmerie detachment was, of course, not conducive to the development of the North China Youth Association.

However, Ji Minggao believes that if the North China Youth Association can get out of the gendarmerie detachment safely, it can stimulate the anti-Japanese enthusiasm of other personnel.

Miao Guangyuan hoped that the North China Youth Association would normally be a genuine anti-Japanese organization.

Both ideologically and deedly, they must behave very anti-Japanese in order to attract real anti-Japanese elements.

The people arrested last night, except for Ji Minggao, all the others came with the anti-Japanese resistance.

Of course, there are also some frustrated literati among them, who can't find their value through normal channels, and can only prove their existence in this way.

The aftermath of the North China Youth Association, Nozaki personally discussed it with Miao Guangyuan and Ji Minggao.

The North China Youth Association must continue to exist, this is their consensus.

Nozaki also mentioned the problem of Deng Zehua, who is a subordinate of Lu Chengzhou, and his situation is different.

Lu Chengzhou's identity as the director of the intelligence room has never been known to the police force.

The rest of the North China Youth Association can be put back, but Deng Zehua can't.

The only condition for Deng Zehua to go back is that he must cooperate with the gendarmerie detachment and become a person like Ji Minggao.

Only in this way can Deng Zehua live.

Otherwise, Nozaki would rather execute Deng Zehua than cause trouble to Lu Chengzhou.

After all, he arranged the test of Lu Chengzhou's operation.

Lu Chengzhou has been well hidden in the police department for several years.

Lin Yi joined the gendarmerie detachment later than Lu Chengzhou, and his identity has been exposed.

If Lu Chengzhou's identity is revealed again, how will Nozaki give an account to the gendarmerie?

"Mr. Ji, can we still go out?" Huang Guoping hesitated for a moment and asked.

This problem is what they are most concerned about, they can only resist Japan when they go out, and they can only wait for death if they stay here.

They were locked up all night last night, and each of them had different thoughts.

Some have regretted joining the North China Youth Association, while others have become afraid of the Japanese.

Like Deng Zehua, who really came to resist Japan, after being arrested, there are not many who are still unswerving.

"Of course you can go out, the Japanese have no evidence, and the books we have in the agency, although they are anti-Japanese, have not taken action, and they can't do anything about us. You know, this is in the British Concession, not the territory of the Japanese. Ji Minggao said slowly.

"That's right, this is the British Concession, and the Japanese can't be too rampant." Huang Guoping immediately responded.

Ji Minggao's words really put them at ease.

Only Deng Zehua has been silent.

When he sees through the essence, he can easily expose Ji Minggao's lies.

The North China Youth Association is an organization set up by the military police detachment, and Ji Minggao is basically a Japanese spy.

Deng Zehua really hated himself, why didn't he have the ability to discern at all, so he was fooled so easily?

"Deng Zehua, come out!"

Someone at the door suddenly shouted, and when Deng Zehua heard it, he knew that the time had come for his fate.

It was already completely dark outside, however, in the cellar there was no idea at all.

Haigu in the early morning is particularly cold.

Deng Zehua tightened his clothes and followed the guards to the building in front.

Deng Zehua was taken to the intelligence room again, and it was Lu Chengzhou who met him.

"How's it going, have you figured it out?" Lu Chengzhou held a big meat bun in his hand, sat on the edge of the brazier and ate it, glanced at him, and asked.
