Xu Chengyan did not go home directly after leaving the library, but came to Ji Yun's residence, knocked on the door, and Ji Yun was waiting for him inside.

There were some wine and dishes on the small table, two meat and three vegetables, and a braised fish that Xu Chengyan liked to eat the most, which was quite hearty, thinking that Ji Yun had prepared it on the way back, and the two of them didn't say much, they found a chair and sat down.

Picking up the porcelain bottle hardcover Fenjiu on the table, and checking it in his hand, Xu Chengyan smashed his mouth and said with a smile: "You are a ruin, and you are willing to use such a good wine." ”

Ji Yun was also full of smiles, put the wine glass in his hand in front of him, watched Xu Chengyan pour it for him, and raised the wine glass: "Come, this time I will be promoted and make a fortune, we can be regarded as all of us, celebrate it today!" ”

Since the commendation was announced last night, the two of them have been so busy that they haven't had time to celebrate.

Xu Chengyan smiled slightly, raised his wine glass and touched Ji Yun, and then raised his neck and drank it dry, only to feel a hot stream flowing down his throat, mixed with the rich aroma of wine, wrapping his stomach warmly, and his whole body was indescribably comfortable.

"Good, good wine!" Xu Chengyan exclaimed, since he sneaked into Taiyuan, he has rarely had such a good interest, and today he is indeed in a happy mood, and he only feels that the things in this cup are extraordinarily mellow.

Ji Yun also drank the wine in one gulp, shook his head again and again, and said with emotion: "Now I see, we are still here this time, in three months, we have raised the first level, Hengcheng They know, I don't know how to envy it!" ”

He completely forgot the complaint he was still complaining about a few days ago, as for what he said about Hengcheng, it was when they were in southern Jiangsu, the members of Xu Chengyan's intelligence team were all close comrades-in-arms who shared life and death.

Xu Chengyan also nodded slightly, and said softly: "Yes, I don't know how a few of them are now, I really miss them!" ”

"I don't know when we will be able to meet in the future, and honestly, you said that when we go up one more liter, how about applying to transfer them? Life and death brothers, everyone has a care when they are together. ”

Ji Yun's proposal made Xu Chengyan's heart move, but then he stopped thinking about it.

Compared with the ordinary army, the promotion within the Military Command Bureau is very difficult, from the military government to the bureau headquarters, the control of the rank of the agent is very strict, and it is impossible to promote to a higher level without real credit.

"You're right, but even if we are promoted to another level, we don't have the right to transfer personnel from southern Sunan.

Besides, Hengcheng and they have not undergone special training, and they are okay to fight, but the fighting environment here is complicated, and they can't adapt to it, so don't hurt them again. ”

Ji Yun stopped talking, although his team members were elite, they were wild after all, and it was okay to engage in military affairs, but it would not work any further.

He thought about it, so he shook his head and said: "That's right, their temperament is not as good as ours, they would rather be in the combat unit than be transferred to lurk behind enemy lines, by the way, I haven't asked you yet, how is the matter of applying for a job at the newspaper today, is it going well?" ”

"Of course it went well! You see! Xu Chengyan said proudly, took out the press card he had just arrived, put it on the table, and pushed it in front of Ji Yun.

Ji Yun picked up the press card, opened it, and carefully examined it, the card was beautifully printed, the font was clear, and at the top right of the home page, there was a half-length photo of Xu Chengyan, which was pressed very clearly with a concave and convex steel seal.

Gently checked the weight, and carefully touched the thickness of the paper, which is twice as thick as ordinary paper, both the material and the printing quality, are far beyond the ordinary citizens to handle the good citizen certificate, obviously after special customization, with the current printing level on the market, it is difficult to forge.

Ji Yun nodded and smiled: "It's really a good thing, with this press card, even if you go to the provincial office for a walk, there is no problem, and we will have more room for activities in the future!" ”

"Not only that, but there was another amazing discovery today!"

"And discoveries?"

Xu Chengyan immediately recounted what happened in the morning to Ji Yun, and finally said: "Although Takahashi said vaguely, I can hear from his words that my teacher Yoshino is only afraid that his identity is very unusual, if we can reconnect with him, with the help of his cover, it will definitely be of great help to our future work." ”

Ji Yun listened with great interest, and asked curiously, "Yoshinoemon?" That's what you said before, the Japanese teacher who taught you Japanese? Where is he now? ”

"I don't know, when we broke up before, I thought he had returned to China, but today Takahashi said that he also met Yoshino-sensei in Tianjin four years ago, and as for where he is now, Takahashi is willing to inquire for me, and there should be news soon."

"I didn't expect things to go so smoothly, as soon as you joined Xinmin Daily, you directly entered the Ministry of Current Affairs, in this case, I will also give it a try the day after tomorrow."

According to Ji Yun's idea, with his Japanese level, it is impossible to enter the Ministry of Current Affairs, but it is not a big problem to go to the Ministry of Social Affairs to be an ordinary reporter, at least he can mix up a press card, which is a good thing.

Xu Chengyan reminded: "After all, Xinmin Newspaper is a little different, they have an identity verification procedure, every Chinese who joins the newspaper must be reviewed by the Investigation Department of Xinmin Association, you have no problem with this, right?" ”

"No problem, you know my situation, there are still fathers and brothers at home, and they can't investigate anything."

Ji Yun's hometown of Quwo, Jinnan, Shanxi, is located in the north of Xia County and south of Linfen, but the situation is much better than that of Xia County.

After Xu Chengyan confirmed, he put his mind at ease, and when Ji Yun entered Xinmin Newspaper in the future, he could also take care of himself, the two of them were used to cooperating, and they were too far apart, and they were not adaptable.

The two of them ate and drank, talking and laughing for a long time, and finally Ji Yun put down the wine glass, and said: "Now that Lu Mingzhi has solved it, Deng Hui and Yan Gaoyi have absconded without a trace, Zhou Taiqing and the three traitors have also been arrested by Tegaoke, it is estimated that the end will not be better, and the traitors of the original Taiyuan Station will be almost cleaned up, you say, who is our next target?" ”

As soon as Xu Chengyan heard it, he knew that Ji Yun had tasted the sweetness, and he couldn't sit still, so he couldn't help but smile, and said comfortingly: "Don't worry, there are still six goals on the clear list given by the teacher, and when you finish applying, I will apply, and as for the next goal, let me think about it again." ”

According to the previous plan, after getting rid of Lu Mingzhi, he was ready to attack Zhou Taiqing and others, but the special high class started by himself, and it also saved Xu Chengyan and the others, and in this hurry, he didn't have time to think about the next target.

In the afternoon, in the editor-in-chief office of Xinmin Daily, the bright sunlight in spring shines into the room through the glass window, shining brightly, and a warm and warm atmosphere fills the room, which makes people very comfortable.

The editor-in-chief of the newspaper, Naohito Eguchi, sat opposite Tetsuo Takahashi, who was about the same age as Tetsuo Takahashi, but his hair was a little bald, and his appearance was ordinary, and he looked much older than Tetsuo Takahashi.

At this time, he put down the Xinmin Daily in his hand, pointed to the news page above, and said: "During this time, our news reports on current affairs have lagged behind, and at present, we have invested a lot in the construction of the urban area, and the progress is also very good. ”

Tetsuo Takahashi smiled when he heard this, unhurriedly took out a press release from his briefcase, handed it to Naohito Eguchi, and said with a smile: "Look at this manuscript." ”

Naohito Eguchi took it over and took a closer look, it was a manuscript reporting on the expansion of the urban area, the writing was very good, the language was concise, and the organization was clear, and he couldn't help but nod and praise: "This is your thoughtfulness, this is what you wrote personally?" It's really extraordinary! ”

Naohito Eguchi thought that it was a press release written by Tetsuo Takahashi himself, so he naturally praised it, but he also admitted in his heart that this manuscript was very well written, and he was the editor-in-chief of the Ministry of Current Affairs, and he had absolutely nothing to say in business.

But Tetsuo Takahashi smiled slightly, shook his head, and explained: "This is not what I wrote, but the writing of a Chinese journalist." ”

"Chinese journalists? The Ministry of Affairs? Naohito Eguchi was a little puzzled, there were not many reporters in the Ministry of Current Affairs, he probably knew about them, even if it was the chief reporter Kyosuke Watanabe, it was only because he was a person arranged by the special high school class, so he took the position of chief reporter, but the professional level was not high, and he would never write such a manuscript.

Tetsuo Takahashi no longer sold Guanzi, and said directly: "It is a reporter I just recruited today, named Xu Chengyan, who is a rare talent. ”

"Oh! You've never liked to praise people, what's wrong with you today? So much importance to a Chinese? Naohito Eguchi was immediately interested, and couldn't help but ask carefully.

So Tetsuo Takahashi narrated the situation of Xu Chengyan's application to Naohito Eguchi today, especially when he said the name "Yoshino Emon", Naohito Eguchi could no longer hide his surprised expression, and couldn't help asking: "He turned out to be Mr. Yoshino's student, is this true?" ”

"It should be true, he also asked me to inquire about his senior Yoshino and prepare for correspondence."

After receiving Naohito Eguchi's affirmative reply, Naohito Eguchi's eyes rolled, the thoughts in his mind flew around, and he couldn't help but be surprised: "I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it!" ”

Naohito Eguchi is also known to Yoshinoemon for a long time, but unlike Tetsuo Takahashi, he is much more well-informed.

As a Japanese expert on the study of China, Yoshino Emon has a good reputation in Japanese academic circles, and after a decades-long field trip a few years ago, he stayed in North China and participated in the preparatory affairs of the new government in North China, and was one of the senior advisers of the Japanese government to North China.

Although Yoshinoemon is a scholar-type talent and does not hold real power, because his influence is great enough and he has a very high position in the high-level in North China, it is not something that these people can hope for.

At this time, he quickly realized that this was a rare opportunity, maybe he could use this line to get in touch with that big man, and at this point, he and Tetsuo Takahashi both thought of going together.

Thinking of this, he nodded solemnly, his voice was slightly lowered, and he said quite mysteriously: "Takahashi-kun, you have done a very good job this time, you must take care of this Xu Chengyan."

Do you know? Not long ago, I heard the news that your senior Yoshino is a popular candidate for administrative counsel in the new government in North China, and if all goes well, he may be appointed in the near future. ”

"What, there is such a thing? Is the message true? Tetsuo Takahashi couldn't help but look at Naohito Eguchi in surprise.

"It was during a casual conversation with Advisor Nakamura that he occasionally mentioned and I didn't pay attention to at the time, but now it seems that it is good news for us."

Adviser Nakamura is the main person in charge of the Xinmin Association in Taiyuan, and this person is also a senior agent of the special high class, and he has a lot of energy in the intelligence community, and he is very well-informed.

"yes, that's great news!" Tetsuo Takahashi leaned back on the sofa, his fingers tapping lightly on the armrest, and his tone was soft and thoughtful.

The current puppet government in North China is a puppet government supported by the Japanese, and Wang Shulu and his ilk are just decorations, and the real power is controlled by the Japanese.

For this reason, the Japanese government has stationed a large number of personnel in the puppet government, including three advisers to the administration, the legal system, and the military, and the rest of the auxiliary officers are installed in various departments, firmly controlling the actual power of the puppet government.

It can be seen that the status of these three advisers is very high, and if Yoshinoemon can go one step further and be able to hold such a position, he will definitely be called a hot figure, which is enough to show that his position within the top level and his background are by no means simple.

"Senior Yoshino, I have been waiting for decades, and being able to take on this important task is also expected, and there will be no problem in the future, we have to be prepared!"
