Shang Qingyuan filled Wu Tongguang's wine glass with wine, and said in a low voice, "Okay, it's time for me to retire." We probably won't see each other again. Of course, when we meet again, it may be in the prison of your military commandery. ”

Wu Tongguang picked up the wine glass, dried all the wine in the glass with a "slippery", and said with a smile, "Mr. Shang said that he was laughing." How can the prison of the military commander trap a big fish like you? ”

Shang Qingyuan laughed a few times and slowly stood up. He picked up the top hat on the table and put it on his head, and said in a loud voice, "Little rabbit, I owe you this drink!" The next time you see me, don't mention this stubble! Then he said to the guy in the restaurant, "Man, I just paid for your wine and the rest of the money for it is for him!" "It's like walking to the door.

Wu Tongguang grabbed Shang Qingyuan's arm, and also put on a bold appearance of a Northeast man, and said loudly, "You are the one who is the east, and you will leave a guest here." What kind of person is this called a drink? Don't play tricks, stay and drink two pots with me, or you won't be able to leave. ”

The guests at the surrounding tables, seeing him arguing loudly, all stopped making noise and looked at them in unison. Seeing this, Shang Qingyuan could only sit back in his seat, and said helplessly, "I'm afraid of you, I'll accompany you again." And when he had finished speaking, he filled his cup with wine.

When the other guests saw that they were all right, they continued to drink and chat.

Shang Qingyuan looked around casually, and then said in a low voice, "You're not afraid that I'll hurt you?" ”

Wu Tongguang smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "Of course I'm afraid!" But you've already bothered me. ”

After that, the two drank wine by themselves, and there was no verbal communication, and the atmosphere seemed a little awkward.

Wu Tongguang drank another glass of wine, and he was already a little drunk at this time. With the strength of the wine, Wu Tongguang said something that was enough to change the trajectory of his life: "Mr. Shang, I want to join you." ”

"Huh?" Shang Qingyuan's face was stunned, he couldn't believe his ears, but he really heard it very clearly.

Wu Tongguang nodded heavily at him again.

Shang Qingyuan said in a low voice, "Don't talk about it here. Then he raised his voice and shouted at the guy in the restaurant, "Another pot of wine." ”

After that, Shang Qingyuan's conversation box was opened, and Wu Tongguang and the two were like long-known friends, talking about everything, talking about everything. Wu Tongguang also cooperated, and the two talked about national affairs from the parents. Others thought it was just ordinary friends catching up with each other. Only they know that this is a cover-up. However, the depth of the acting skills is really admirable.

The wine has passed three rounds, and the dishes have passed five flavors. Two pots of sorghum rice wine have long been drunk. At this time, the other guests of the restaurant left one after another. When the restaurant guy urged them to leave for the third time on the grounds that the restaurant was closing. After the two settled the account, they helped each other and left.

After walking out of the restaurant, two rickshaws waiting in front of the restaurant immediately greeted them. Wu Tongguang immediately understood that this must also be Shang Qingyuan's person. So the monk Qingyuan, who was very calm, got on the rickshaw.

The rickshaw stopped after less than a quarter of an hour, and Shang Qingyuan and Wu Tongguang got out of the car together. Wu Tongguang raised his eyes and looked around at a patch of weeds, and only a few big trees could be seen scattered a hundred steps away.

At this time, Shang Qingyuan walked to Wu Tongguang's side, but his eyes looked into the distance, and said, "Do you want to join the Communist Party?" ”

Wu Tongguang turned his head sideways to look at Shang Qingyuan and nodded slightly.

Shang Qingyuan smiled and asked, "Why?" Is it because of Miss Wu? ”

Wu Tongguang took out a cigarette and lit it, took a puff, and said slowly, "It's not all, but I can't say why." Anyway, since that night, I want to join you, and I think that what I do with you is called a career. ”

Shang Qingyuan smiled "heh, heh" and said, "What we want is a comrade with firm political beliefs, not a momentary whim." ”

Wu Tongguang flicked the cigarette ash at his fingertips and asked Shang Qingyuan, "Then what did you join the Communist Party for?" ”

"For the sake of faith. Because I believe that the Communist Party of China will lead the people of the whole country to complete national independence and realize communism. After speaking, Shang Qingyuan looked up at the sky, his face full of longing.

After hearing Shang Qingyuan say "faith", Wu Tongguang's heart sank suddenly: Yes, that's the word. Wu Tongguang has never been able to think of an accurate word to describe his original intention of joining the Communist Party.

In the days when he used to work as an errand for the Japanese and served in the United Front Army after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, he heard and even witnessed too many intrigues between the Kuomintang. Many people have fallen victim to political struggles without knowing it.

Wu Tongguang felt that he had a passion for serving the country but had nowhere to sway it, which can be seen from the fact that Wu Tongguang risked his body to help Lin Xiaotian, who had only one side. He felt that only by joining the Communist Party could he do something vigorous.

Wu Tongguang threw the burned cigarette on the ground and ran it over with his foot a few times. said firmly at Shang Qingyuan, "I also believe in it." ”

Shang Qingyuan hesitated for a moment, he was thinking that if he could develop a comrade of his own in Nanjing Station, then Nanjing Station would not be monolithic in the future. And this is also a task assigned by the superiors some time ago. Wu Tongguang held the position of secretary, although the official rank is not high, but it is very likely to have access to core secrets. It would be best if he could be developed.

Shang Qingyuan looked at Wu Tongguang and just wanted to say something, but Wu Tongguang directly interrupted Shang Qingyuan's words and said, "I know, you want to test me!" I accept. ”

Shang Qingyuan exhaled slowly, leaned into Wu Tongguang's ear and whispered a few words. Shang Qingyuan raised his head and continued, "What information do you want to transmit, this line is fine." I will go to the pharmacy every day. ”

Wu Tongguang nodded thoughtfully. A gust of autumn wind blew, and Wu Tongguang couldn't help but shiver. So he said, "Understood." It's cold, it's nothing, let's disperse first! ”

Shang Qingyuan did feel a chill, tightened his clothes, and said, "Okay, let's go back." Rest early. I won't send you away, to keep you safe. I will arrange for these comrades who have met you today to work in other cities, and we will have one-line contact in the future. ”

Wu Tongguang nodded to show his agreement with Shang Qingyuan's arrangement.

Just as Wu Tongguang turned to leave, Shang Qingyuan patted him on the shoulder and said, "Be careful, don't force it!" ”

Wu Tongguang smiled and nodded, and said, "Don't worry!" I will be careful, and I would like to see the day when all of China will be reunified. With that, he turned and left.

Shang Qingyuan stood still, looking up at the scattered stars in the sky. The task of inserting the inside line was completed effortlessly. What he should have had in his heart was joy, but now it was replaced by a lot of guilt. He didn't know if he would harm Wu Tongguang by doing so. But at this point, he had no choice.
