Chapter 22: The Carriage and the Horse

A week later

"The commissioner's injuries are recovering well!" Cao Zhongxian smiled and walked into the liaison station.

He also carried some fruit in his hand as a condolence gift for the patient.

When the commissioner saw Cao Zhongxian coming, he also smiled and nodded, "Thanks to the help of the comrades of the underground party, otherwise I am afraid that my life will be confessed to this beach......

As time passed, the Commissioner's injuries gradually improved, and although he was still relatively weak, he was able to move around.

"Lu Gang, let's pack up and get ready to go......" the commissioner explained.

Hearing the commissioner's words, Cao Zhongxian was obviously a little surprised, and couldn't help but persuade: "Commissioner, your injury is just a little better, let's take care of it again......"

But at this time, the commissioner shook his head, "No...... We have been delayed in Shanghai for too long, and besides, our post is in the Zhejiang-Jiangxi guerrilla zone and not here, and we have already caused too much trouble to the underground party comrades here, and our tasks have been delayed for too long......"

The commissioner's demeanor was still very weak, but his tone was very resolute, and Cao Zhongxian couldn't help but be silent for a while when he heard the commissioner's words, he understood in his heart the anxious mood of a soldier who couldn't return to his post, although he was still a little worried in his heart, but then nodded.

He understood the commissioner's insistence, and if he did not return to his post in Shanghai, the commissioner would probably not be able to settle down and recuperate from his injuries.

Fortunately, the operation had already been done, and the next things such as recuperation and other stitches removal could be completed even under the conditions of the guerrilla zone, since this was the commissioner's insistence, there was no reason for him to stop it, and his injuries were recovering well.

"I understand what the commissioner meant, and I will contact my superiors so that the comrades in the guerrilla zone are ready to respond."

"Mr. Xie Cao, I just don't know when the next meeting will be." The commissioner sighed.

The fact that he had been closed these days had also made him feel more about life, but he felt that this experience would also make him stronger.

Cao Zhongxian smiled when he heard this, "I hope that when that day comes, the invaders have been driven out of China by us." ”

The commissioner also laughed and said nothing when he heard this, this is the wish of each of them, and they also hope that day will come as soon as possible.

Without further ado, Cao Zhongxian did not delay any longer, and immediately left the liaison station to help the two arrange a transportation line to send them out of Shanghai, and let them wait at the street tomorrow, and Zhu Laoba would pick them up at that time.

After learning about the commissioner's decision, Lu Gang was not idle, and began to pack up his things, since the commissioner had made a decision, it was better to speed up the action than to delay time here, and strive to set off quickly.

But just as he was packing his things, Lu Gang suddenly remembered something, and hurriedly took out a watch from a drawer and sent it to the commissioner, "Commissioner, this is what I saw on the side of the operating table after the last operation, I put it away at that time, thinking that it was probably the doctor's personal belongings that came to the operation, so as not to find it when they came to look for it, now that we are leaving, I'm afraid I have to trouble you to ask Mr. Cao to hand ......it over."

Hearing Lu Gang's words, the commissioner took the watch and glanced at it, and couldn't help but nodded, "I have to return it to someone quickly, they saved my life, this little thing must be taken care of, and we will bring it over to the comrades who came to pick us up when we set off." Let him hand it over to Mr. Cao on his behalf. ”

After that, he put it in his pocket, and then packed up his things with Lu Gang......

……

Although this place in Shanghai is more developed than other places, there are also some freight companies that use trucks as commercial transportation, but the car is not a popular product in this era, and most ordinary businesses will still choose to travel by land if the goods are to be taken by land, after all, the cost of transportation is also to be considered.

In an inconspicuous carriage and horse shop, the shopkeeper was concentrating on the accounts, as if because of the recent bad business, he couldn't help frowning, and not only that, although it was daytime, there was also a sign in front of his door that was closed.

But just then, there was a knock at his door.

"Knock...... Boom...... Knock ......"

"Who?!!" The shopkeeper closed the ledger and asked outside the door.

At this time, I heard a younger voice outside the door, "It's me who is in charge!! Xiaohu !! ”

Hearing this voice, the shopkeeper was relieved a lot, and said as he walked towards the door: "Didn't you give you a day off to come back tomorrow afternoon?" How did you come back again? ”

The young man known as Xiaohu outside the door smiled and said, "Hey...... I...... I left my money bag in the store......"

But just as the young man's voice fell, the shopkeeper suddenly stopped his hand to open the door, and his eyes suddenly showed a vigilant look.

He understands this guy Xiaohu, and he has always been very meticulous in doing things, how could he make the mistake of leaving the money bag in the store?

And the store has been closed for a long time, and he forgot to take it for so long before he thought of it?!!

However, the shopkeeper still replied, "Really? Then you have to be careful, you have to take care of things like money bags, if you lose it, it's hard to find it, don't you say? ”

The shopkeeper immediately walked to the counter as he spoke, ignoring the response from outside, and then took out a gun hidden under the counter and held it in his hand, and at the same time quickly took out a notebook of carriage and horse arrangement records, tore off the latest page of it and threw it into the brazier where the fire was roasting on the side, and then ran to the backyard.

But at this moment, a cold voice sounded in his backyard, "Where are you going?" ”

Wang Sen was standing alone in the backyard at this time, raising his pistol and aiming it at the shopkeeper, while showing a playful smile of the day.

The shopkeeper immediately wanted to shoot back, but at this time, the front door was also rushed open, and it was suddenly chaotic, and Wang Sen slowly approached his side, raised his hand and signaled: "Don't move, your gun is definitely not as fast as mine......"

A desperate expression appeared on the shopkeeper's face, and the gun in his hand slipped off......

In this situation where there is no room for resistance, if you want to live, you can only cooperate obediently, thinking of this, the shopkeeper immediately squatted down with his head in his hands, and at this moment, his buddy Xiaohu also walked in with the others......
