"Old Ma, who do you say this Lu Yuan is? Why did Shanghai make such a reply? Not only do we have to ensure the safety of this Lu Yuan, but we must also unconditionally provide all the information he wants, could it be that this Lu Yuan was sent by Yan'an? After getting the reply from Shanghai, Wang Qingnian discussed with Ma Baocheng, the shopkeeper of Hutchison, because Ma Baocheng had met Lu Yuan, so Wang Qingnian wanted to know Ma Baocheng's opinion on Lu Yuan.

"Sent by Yan'an, won't you? I don't think the man is too young, and he looks like he's about 20 years old. Wang Qinnian's words immediately made Ma Baocheng shake his head, and he would think of Lu Yuan's appearance, Ma Baocheng continued. I don't think that person was sent from Yan'an, judging by his demeanor and demeanor when he speaks, it is more appropriate to say that he is a child of a family. ”

Ma Baocheng's words also made Wang Qingnian confused, he knew that Ma Baocheng had always looked at people very accurately, but he couldn't believe that the person who was endorsed by the Shanghai underground party organization would be just an ordinary child of a family. Wang Qingnian, who did not dare to slack off, sent a telegram to the Shanghai underground party again, and Xu Huanshan, who received the telegram, did not be vague this time, but he did not reveal Lu Yuan's true identity to Wang Qingnian, he just said that Lu Yuan was a friend of the Shanghai underground party, a friend who could be trusted unconditionally.

Xu Huanshan's second reply made Wang Qingnian and the others even more confused, but the two did not continue to ask, but prepared for another meeting with Lu Yuan. Wang Qingnian, who was old and scheming, didn't know that when Ma Baocheng came to him from the secret passage, he was no longer secretive. Because at the interface not far from Hutchison, Lu Yuan, who had already opened the full-view map, was sitting in the coffee shop on the corner, and Lu Yuan already knew about Wang Qingnian's existence at this moment.

After drinking the coffee in the cup with a leisurely face, Lu Yuan walked out of the coffee shop and walked towards Wang Qingnian's pharmacy along the way he came, he was already a little eager to see what the person in charge of the hidden contact point looked like. When Lu Yuan, dressed in a suit, walked into the pharmacy, several people, including the boss Wang Qingnian, didn't believe that this young man was here to buy medicine, because most of the young people dressed like this in the concession were used to going to Western doctors to see a doctor and get medicine.

"Sir, is it a disease or a medicine?" The young man in the medicine still greeted him with a smile on his face, but Lu Yuan did not speak, but looked left and right at the layout of the pharmacy first. Compared with the Hutchison next door, the area of this pharmacy is even smaller, Lu Yuan secretly took a deep breath, and secretly said in his heart that this Chinese medicine tastes very good. Lu Yuan, who was questioned again by the young man in the pharmacy, grinned, and then walked in front of Wang Qingnian, "Shopkeeper, I'll go next door to buy a 20-year-old Pu'er, and they say you have it here?" ”

The two patients waiting in the pharmacy were confused when they heard Lu Yuan's words, but to Wang Qingnian's ears, they were no less than a heavy hammer hitting his chest, and in an instant, Wang Qingnian could not breathe normally. 20 years of Pu'er, the code word to be used when going to the next door and the Hutchison connection, but how could this young man come to his side and say this secret word. Wang Qingnian suddenly looked up at Lu Yuan, and finally remembered what Ma Baocheng had said in his mind, isn't the young man who is in front of him at this moment looking like a child of a family.

Wang Qingnian, who already had a plan in his heart, quickly sent the two patients away, and then told the young man that he would no longer admit patients today, and then let Lu Yuan into the medicine in the backyard. "Who the hell are you? Don't you know that I'm not the place to use connectors? Wang Qingnian casually opened a drawer and took out a pack of cigarettes, but when Lu Yuan reached out to take the cigarettes handed by Wang Qingnian, he suddenly found that the drawer that was opened by Wang Qingnian just now had been so open, and Wang Qingnian didn't want to close the drawer at all.

If it weren't for the fact that Lu Yuan had already confirmed Wang Qingnian's hidden identity with a full-view map, maybe when Wang Qingnian secretly looked at the pistol in the drawer, he would have turned his face and asked for the other party's life. "My name is Lu Yuan, Xu Huanshan from Shanghai told me Hutchison, and I found it myself here." Lu Yuan confessed his name to the other party, and when Wang Qingnian looked at the drawer again, Lu Yuan had no choice but to open his hands to the other party, "You can rest assured, I am not your enemy, on the contrary, I think we should be able to become a cooperative relationship." ”

"Cooperation?" Lu Yuan's words made Wang Qingnian's eyes shrink uncontrollably, and then he reached out and took out a pistol from the drawer and pointed it at Lu Yuan, and at the same time asked Lu Yuan sharply. "Who the hell are you? Military commander or Wang puppet? You'd better be honest, my guy isn't a vegetarian. Wang Qingnian's scolding made Lu Yuan cry and laugh, could it be that he didn't look at the yellow calendar when he went out today, and he would be pointed at a gun by such an old man.

"As I said just now, I was introduced by Xu Huanshan in Shanghai, and I am not a military commander or a hypocrisy. If you have to tell me what my so-called identity is, then you should think of me as an overseas Chinese, a Chinese who specializes in killing Japanese people after returning to China. Being pointed at by Wang Qingnian with a pistol, Lu Yuan finally hid the smile on his face, and there was a hint of impatience in his tone.

Wang Qingnian, who was holding the pistol, was stunned for a moment, and only after a while did he slowly put down the Browning pistol in his hand, but the vigilance in his eyes did not dissipate much at all. Wang Qingnian put down the pistol he raised, and the coldness on Lu Yuan's face also dissipated a little, and then asked, "Don't you want me to sit down?" It would be even better if you could give me another cup of tea, isn't it Hutchison next door, his family specializes in selling tea. Lu Yuan's anti-guest made Wang Qingnian cry and laugh, and after signaling Lu Yuan to sit down, Wang Qingnian personally made tea for Lu Yuan.

"We have sent a telegram to the Shanghai underground party, and the other party has also responded, just now that is just a necessary precautionary measure, after all, it is Hutchison next door who is responsible for daily contact with you." After the two sat down, Wang Qingnian explained to Lu Yuan, and the latter, who had already picked up the teacup, immediately expressed his expression, which could understand Wang Qingnian's caution just now. "But what I wonder is, how did you know me? Even if you had been spying on Hutchison, I am afraid you would not have seen anyone in Hutchison come to me. ”

Wang Qingnian wanted to figure out how he was discovered by Lu Yuan, but Lu Yuan didn't explain, but immediately changed the topic. "I don't know much about your underground party, and I don't want to know more about you, I just need you to provide me with all the information related to the Japanese army. According to the rules of cooperation with Xu Huanshan and them when I was in Shanghai, if the information you provide is useful, I will always pay you with weapons and ammunition or the materials you need, and you must make sure that my identity is not leaked. ”

Lu Yuan was in Shanghai at the time, and it was with weapons, ammunition and various materials that he got involved with Xu Huanshan, but Wang Qingnian was not very interested in what he said. "Our contact point is secret, and at the same time, it is also outside the underground party organization in Tianjin, and we don't need the weapons, ammunition and materials you mentioned. In a sense, we're just a secret point of contact that has been silent for a long time, and only those with a higher level of contact code can access us. ”

As soon as Wang Qingnian said this, Lu Yuan understood a little, but he did not give up and continued to tempt Wang Qingnian, "The weapons and ammunition I am talking about are not as simple as a few pistols, what if there are dozens or hundreds of standard rifles?" Or what about heavy firepower weapons such as Japanese mortars or light and heavy machine guns? Maybe I can get the medicine, but if it's what you want and I can get it, I'll have it. ”

Lu Yuan's boasting made Wang Qingnian more and more confused, and at this moment, he couldn't see through Lu Yuan's identity, but the guard in his eyes had faded a lot. "I will be staying in Tianjin in the near future, and I need information on the Japanese army's transportation of supplies from the dock back to the mainland, and I also need information on the Japanese garrison in Tianjin. Believe me, you just need to have this information ready and give it to me, and soon you will hear the good news. Lu Yuan put the teacup in his hand on the table, then got up and left, leaving only Wang Qingnian still in the courtyard.

Wang Qingnian, who had been echoing Lu Yuan's words in his head, didn't come back to his senses for a while, and when he came back to his senses, he found that Lu Yuan had already left, and there was only an empty teacup left on the table in front of him. "Lao Wang, do you think this Lu Yuan can do it? The Japanese army we have collected here is not old or young, should we all hand it over to him? Ma Baocheng, who was called to help, asked Wang Qingnian in an urn, in the secret room where the two people were, and the wooden lattices on the three walls were all the Japanese military intelligence they had collected in recent years.

"Since this Lu Yuan is a person who is willing to come forward to endorse the Shanghai side, then he should not be our enemy, and from my contact with him, I can see that this person is not bad. If what he said is true, it will not be in vain to hand over our information to him. Wang Qingnian's answer was yes, but Ma Baocheng didn't hear it, and Wang Qingnian also had doubts in his heart.

Lu Yuan, who had successfully connected with the secret contact point, was in a good mood, and walked around the concession for a while, and then returned to the hostel with some snacks he bought on the side of the road, while Hogg and Schuchmann had already returned. When asked by the two of them what to do, Lu Yuan just replied and turned around, but the pleasure in his tone was unconcealable.
