Tang Cheng asked Zhou Hongxiang to be optimistic about Zhang Jianghe, and the latter naturally knew what Tang Cheng was worried about, so he just snorted twice uncharacteristically, and stayed at home with peace of mind. Tang Cheng went out early in the morning and went to Joseph's leather goods store first, "I'm going to leave Nanjing and go south to Chongqing soon, that little Jewish girl, what are you and Hans going to do?" Could it be true that Yao and I took her to Chongqing together? If that's the case, you may not see each other for a long time. ”

Tang Cheng would come to Joseph once in a while, so Joseph was not surprised by Tang Cheng's arrival early in the morning, but when he heard Tang Cheng say that he was leaving Nanjing, Joseph's face couldn't help but show a trace of surprise. "Are you really going to Chongqing?" Joseph looked at Tang Cheng's face without blinking, at first when he heard Tang Cheng say that he was leaving Nanjing, Joseph thought that Tang Cheng was joking with himself, this would look at Tang Cheng's expression, it didn't look like a fake.

Tang Cheng took out a cigarette and lit one and smoked it, puffing the cigarette in his mouth at Joseph, who was looking at him, Tang Cheng said indifferently. "I'm most annoyed by you guys who think you're smart, I told you a long time ago that I'm leaving Nanjing for Chongqing. But look at you, I guess you've always thought I was tempting you or joking, right? Can't you just be sincere? Or do I look like a liar? ”

Tang Cheng's words made Joseph embarrassed, but the expression of shame was only fleeting on Joseph's face, and Joseph's expression instantly returned to its previous state. "Will the Intelligence Service let you go? Don't they know what you're capable of counterintelligence? If I were the head of the intelligence department, I would never let you leave Nanjing! Joseph's words sounded like he was fighting for Tang Cheng, but he was actually testing Tang Cheng, and he still didn't believe that Tang Cheng really wanted to leave Nanjing.

"The power of bullshit!" When Tang Cheng heard this, he immediately squinted at Joseph, "Don't put a top hat on me, there are many talents in the intelligence department, and there are even a lot of people like me." Besides, my father has lost his life for the intelligence department, I am the only seedling of my family, and the intelligence department can't forcibly recruit me, so call me the Tang family cut off from now on! Tang Cheng's words made Joseph suddenly remember, the young man in front of him became a descendant of martyrs last year, and the intelligence department must not forcibly recruit Tang Cheng to join them.

"Then what did you do in Chongqing? You still have family to take care of! Although Joseph knew that Tang Cheng looked young, he was a little fox who was used to taking one step and looking at three steps. But this sentence, he still asked, if Alice is handed over to Tang Cheng to take care of temporarily, Joseph must know what Tang Cheng does for a living after he goes to Chongqing. At the same time, he also suspected that Tang Cheng mentioned Alice just now in order to take the opportunity to extort a sum of money from himself.

There is a saying that the eyes move at will, and Joseph's eyes at this moment made Tang Cheng immediately frown and said, "Old Covenant, you can do it!" Don't look at me with that strange look! After Joseph leaned back and disguised his thoughts under the pretense of smoking, Tang Cheng continued. When I went to Chongqing, I naturally continued to do my old job! The sheriff's salary and a small business should be able to support my family and myself, and the price of goods in Chongqing should be much lower than in Nanjing. ”

After Joseph's expression regained his composure and he raised his eyes to look at him again, Tang Cheng finally said that Zhang Jianghe was also transferred to Chongqing. "This time I was not only transferred to Chongqing, my uncle, who was the captain Zhang Jianghe you met last time, will also be transferred to Chongqing this time to serve as the deputy station chief of the Chongqing substation. You say, I have such a backer, is it still a problem to support my family? ”

Joseph's expression had frozen, and it was only now that he finally understood that he dared Tang Cheng to come to him early in the morning, not to extort bamboo and fight the autumn wind, this thing was simply here to show off with himself! Joseph naturally knew Zhang Jianghe, and he had also met Zhang Jianghe once, and he even knew the relationship between Tang Cheng and Zhang Jianghe. If Zhang Jianghe was transferred to Chongqing together and served as the deputy head of the Chongqing Station of the Intelligence Department, wouldn't Tang Cheng be able to walk sideways in Chongqing!

Tang Cheng, who was smoking, seemed to appreciate Joseph's sluggish appearance at the moment, and only after Joseph finally came back to his senses did Tang Cheng continue. "I came to you early in the morning to ask you, do you want to go to Chongqing with us? I have thought about it carefully, that little Jewish girl, you had better take care of yourself, you put her here with me, it is really a lot of inconvenience, I believe that the way here, you should also understand. ”

"I was transferred to Chongqing to continue to be a police chief, and my uncle was also promoted to be the deputy station chief there. You may not have a lot of wealth, but it should be more than enough to support yourself and that little Jewish girl, and Hans naturally has no choice in a place like Shanghai, so can't a small character like you make a choice for yourself? ”

Tang Cheng said that Joseph was a small character, which didn't sound polite, but Joseph didn't say anything to refute it, because Tang Cheng wasn't wrong. In fact, Joseph had to come to China earlier than Hans, and the German intelligence services thought that Nanjing was the capital of China, and although the embassy was located in Nanjing, it was better to have an external intelligence system in private. Under this premise, Joseph was sent to Nanjing and lurked under the identity of a businessman.

However, after a while, the German intelligence services suddenly discovered that it seemed that the intelligence market in Shanghai was more active, so Hans was sent to China and was based in Shanghai, and Joseph, who was not valued, gradually fell to the point of no one's attention. As early as two years ago, the German intelligence services no longer issued funds to Joseph for his activities, and the original two assistants were also transferred to Shanghai to assist Hans.

"Don, do you have to base your happiness on my pain?" Joseph replied to the other party with a sentence that Tang Cheng often said here, but he did not refute what Tang Cheng had just said, because he knew that Tang Cheng had not said anything wrong. Joseph's words, coupled with his resentful expression at the moment, made Tang Cheng finally unable to hold back and grinned.

"Old Covenant, I really treat you as a friend, that's why I gave you the idea just now. You should have heard what I told Hans last time. Hans has been back in Shanghai for a few days, and I am sure that there must be a connection between you, and Hans should also investigate some clues about the situation on the Japanese side. Do you think that once the Japanese make a move, will Nanjing, as the national capital, still be safe? Tang Cheng gradually lowered his voice, and his expression was slightly distorted.

Tang Cheng knew that war would definitely break out, and he also knew that Nanjing would fall sooner or later, because with the current combat strength and weapon configuration of the national army, it would definitely not be able to hold Nanjing, and besides, they would have to go through three months of Shanghai before they could garrison Nanjing. But Tang Cheng couldn't tell more people about this, because even if he said it, I am afraid that no one would believe it, but would put a big hat on Tang Cheng, and then not only Tang Cheng would be in trouble, but even his family would be implicated.

This kind of ambivalence has plagued Tang Cheng for a long time, especially after learning yesterday that Zhang Jianghe had been ordered to go south to Chongqing, Tang Cheng didn't close his eyes all night. After thinking about it all night, Tang Cheng couldn't find a solution, and came to Joseph early in the morning because he wanted to avoid Zhou Hongxiang and Zhang Jianghe. Knowing that many people would die in Nanjing City, but there was no way to solve it, this ambivalence made Tang Cheng a little shameless to face Zhou Hongxiang and Zhang Jianghe.

Tang Cheng didn't know whether Joseph could get the latest movements of the Japanese from Hans, but what he said just now was not to fool Joseph, he did want Joseph to go to live in Chongqing with him. Chongqing will have great changes in the future, and Zhang Jiang and this deputy stationmaster may not be able to continue to be prosperous, so Tang Cheng still needs to take precautions and find another backer for himself and his family in advance. Although Joseph was almost reduced to an outcast, he was still a member of the German intelligence service after all, and Tang Cheng felt that this was a good backer.

Joseph didn't give an answer on the spot, and Tang Cheng was slightly disappointed in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face. "Old Testament, I'm going to meet some people somewhere else today, so I can't stay with you for long. I'll give you a day to think about it, and I'll be on the phone until it gets dark and hope you make the right choice. Tang Cheng gave Joseph the opportunity and time to choose, and got up and left the leather shop.

Seeing Tang Cheng leave, Joseph's heart was very heavy, selfishness is human nature, and Joseph is naturally no exception. What Tang Cheng said just now made Joseph, who had been able to get by, begin to examine himself, and he vaguely felt that Tang Cheng must have known something. Now recalling Tang Cheng's expression when he mentioned that Nanjing would be in danger just now, Joseph's expression became more and more serious, and he finally began to face Tang Cheng's suggestion just now.

Tang Cheng, who was slightly disappointed in his heart, left the leather goods store and did not go home, but first found a place to make a phone call, and then drove straight to the bank. Half an hour later, when Tang Cheng walked out of the bank, he already had a black suitcase in his hand, which contained two pistols and some bullets, as well as some dollars and oceans, which Tang Cheng had deposited in the safe on the third day of his return from Shanghai to Nanjing.

Tang Cheng prepared these things just to prepare for a rainy day, but now that he has obtained the order to go to Chongqing, these arrangements in advance are useless. Tang Cheng came to this bank to take out the suitcase, planning to hand over the suitcase to Xu Huanshan, even if it was a gift to Xu Huanshan before he left Nanjing.
