Both double rooms and single rooms were considered the most high-end rooms in Shanghai baths at that time, so they were also called special rooms. It is not only equipped with water heating, but also has a high-end sofa, a Western-style single bed, and an imported basin.

The so-called foreign basin is a ceramic bathtub, which was not able to be produced in China at that time, thanks to foreign imports, so it is also called a foreign basin. And the small pond refers to the ocean basin.

Although the price of a single or double room is more than 20 times more expensive than the large pool outside, Zhang Chaoyang and Xiao Ding, as senior staff members of the Shanghai office of the Anti-Smoking Supervision Department, are nothing to the two of them.

So Chatou beckoned a running hall and led Zhang Chaoyang and Xiao Ding to the double room upstairs.

After entering the double room, the running hall was like a trick, sending wooden slippers, hot tea and hot towels to the two people, and sending a few snacks such as raw pears, green radish, green olives, lotus heart soup, etc., and then quickly turned on the hot water faucet, put water in the two basins, and said to Zhang Chaoyang and Xiaoding: "Boss Zhang, Boss Ding, you take a bath first, and after soaking, press the bell, and I will arrange for the master to come over immediately." ”

After finishing speaking, Runtang bowed, and then reached out to take out the leather shoes that Zhang Chaoyang and Xiaoding had taken off.

Like other baths in Shanghai at that time, Xizhongtian Bath also had services such as back polishing, back beating, foot cutting, massage, and shoe shine. Special rooms such as double rooms and single rooms include all services by default.

Zhang Chaoyang felt that if the Intelligence Department wanted to connect with him, most of them would have to make a fuss about these candidates for the masters of back massage. But how to connect with himself while being in the same room as Xiao Ding is something that the intelligence department needs to consider. Since he can't think of any good solution in this regard, it is better to simply enjoy it as an ordinary bath.

After relaxing his mind, Zhang Chaoyang reclined on the single sofa bed with a smile, took a piece of green radish and stuffed it into his mouth, and muttered: "Well, it's delicious!" Xiaoding, try it, there is a lot of green radish juice today, and the taste is sweet! ”

"I'm not thirsty right now, wait a minute!" Xiao Ding sat opposite Zhang Chaoyang, looked at the green radish strip in his hand vigilantly, shook his head and said.

Zhang Chaoyang knew that Xiao Ding was worried that these snacks were drugged, so he didn't bother to pay attention to him, reached out and picked up another piece of raw pear strips, chewed it, chewed it, swallowed it, and shouted delicious in his mouth.

In this way, Zhang Chaoyang ate more than half of the raw pears, green radishes and green olives on the three plates, drank a small half pot of lotus heart soup, and saw that the hot water in the basin was almost full, so he wiped his mouth with a wet towel with satisfaction, stood up and walked to the basin to turn off the faucet, stretched out his hand to test the water temperature, and called out "just right" in his mouth, then took off his clothes and hung them on the hanger next to him, half lying in the basin, closed his eyes, and the old god was soaking in the bath.

Xiao Ding saw that Zhang Chaoyang didn't have any abnormal reaction at this time, and finally let down his guard, brought the raw pears and green radishes to the side of the basin, then took off his clothes, stepped into the basin, and took a bath while chewing the raw pear slices and green radish strips on the plate.

After Zhang Chaoyang soaked for about ten minutes, he reached out and pressed the bell next to him.

Soon, there was a knock at the door, and then with a bang, I saw a shirtless old man in big pants walking in with a toolbox. He was in his early fifties, stout and had a long beard, but he limped between walks, and his left foot was lame.

Zhang Chaoyang couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this old man, isn't this the famous "Tie Guan Li" in the Shanghai bathing industry?

Tie Guan Li was born in Yangzhou and is the master of 20 baths in Shanghai, including Xizhongtian Bathhouse, and has nearly 200 masters who pound their backs and feet. He turned out to be just a massage master of a low-grade bath, because he cured Du Yuexiao's waist disease by chance and became famous, not only won Du Yuexiao's reward of a thousand oceans, but also rowed 20 baths to him, making him the master of these 20 baths, managing nearly 200 masters who beat their backs and feet, and were nicknamed "Tie Guan Li".

After Tie Guan Li became famous, he did not give up his old profession, and often went to the bath of his private hall from time to time to personally beat the back massage for the guests, so the business of his private 20 baths was also extremely hot, and almost all the guests were proud to be able to let Tie Guan Li massage for himself once.

Zhang Chaoyang didn't expect that today he came to the bath to connect with the people from the Intelligence Department, and he was able to bump into Tie Guan Li who came over to beat his back and massage him.

After Tie Guan Li entered the door, his eyes swept between Zhang Chaoyang and Xiao Ding, and then asked angrily, "Which boss rang the bell just now?" ”

"Master Kidnapping, it's me!" Zhang Chaoyang hurriedly stood up from the basin and said to Tie Guan Li: "I didn't expect that I was so lucky that I would be able to meet Master Gui to come to the middle of the stream." Kidnapper, you're tired! ”

"Hehe, that's what I'm doing, what's there to worry about? On the contrary, I have to thank the boss for taking care of my business! Tie Guan Li said as he asked Zhang Chaoyang, "What is the boss's surname?" ”

"Don't dare, exempt your surname and set up an early chapter!" Zhang Chaoyang replied.

Tie Guan Li took a pen and wrote the word "chapter" on the number plate, and then spread a big towel on the bath bed, let Zhang Chaoyang lie on his stomach, and began to rub Zhang Chaoyang's back.

Xiao Ding watched from the side, his eyes were hot. Among these old bathers in Shanghai, who is not proud of being able to let Tie Guan Li massage for himself? That's the most satisfying massage master of the emperor Du Yuexiao on the beach!

Take the Shanghai Office of the Anti-Smoking Supervision Department as an example, Xiao Fang of the Anti-Smuggling Department was fortunate to enjoy a Tie Guan Li's massage service in the Anle Bath, which almost became his most glorious capital, every time the office party drank Xiao Fang was able to brag for a long time, and even the director of the office scolded Xiao Fang for having shit luck!

But he didn't want them to be so lucky today, Zhang Chaoyang rang the bell casually, and he was able to call Tie Guan Li to come over to serve in person.

Suddenly, Xiao Ding didn't even care about eating raw pear slices and green radish strips, lying in the basin, looking up at Tie Guan Li, "Master Gui, do you have any guests behind you?" After you finish doing it for Xiaozhang, can you help me do it? ”

"I don't know about that!" Tie Guan Li rubbed Zhang Chaoyang's back and said, "You ring the bell and call the people running over to see if there is a queue behind." ”

Xiao Ding often comes to the Xizhong Sky Bath to take a bath, and naturally knows the rules of the Xizhong Sky Bath, pressing the bell once is to call the master in, and pressing the bell twice is to call the running hall to come in. So he hurriedly rang the bell twice.

Soon, Runtang came in from outside, "Boss, what are your orders?" ”

"Run," Xiao Ding said, "I want to wait for Master Kidnapper to finish helping my colleague do it, and then make it for me." Let me ask you, are there any guests in the back of him? ”

The person who ran the hall laughed and said, "Boss Ding, your bell is really timely, and the kidnapper has just arrived, and the other guests who are taking a bath don't know yet." If you are a few minutes late, the other guests will know that they are numbered here, and it will be difficult for you to arrange it for you at that time! ”

Xiao Ding was overjoyed, immediately stood up, took out a piece of fiat currency from his pocket and threw it to the rantang, and said, "Then hurry up and arrange it for me, and this piece of fiat currency will reward you!"

"Boss Shetding!" Ran Tang took the fiat currency, and then said to Tie Guan Li, "Master Gui, please finish it for Boss Zhang, and also make it for Boss Ding." ”

"Okay, I got it!" Tie Guan Li nodded, but his hands did not stop, and with a slight lift of his hands, he turned Zhang Chaoyang over from the bath bed and began to rub Zhang Chaoyang's front.

With a smile on his face, he retreated.

After wiping the front, Tie Guan Li patted Zhang Chaoyang's shoulder, motioned him to go to the basin to wash off the dirt on his body, then dried his body with a towel, lay down on the single sofa bed, and began to massage.

I don't know what magic Tie Guan Li's hand has, with his massage, the bones of Zhang Chaoyang's body made a "popping" sound, as if firecrackers were constantly exploding. At the same time, Zhang Chaoyang's mouth made a sound of "mmmmmmmm

Half an hour later, Zhang Chaoyang's massage finally ended. Tie Guan Li took a bucket of hot water for him to soak his feet, and then took advantage of this time to come over to rub Xiao Ding's back and massage.

When Tie Guan Li rubbed his back, Xiao Ding didn't have any special feelings, he only felt that Tie Guan Li's technique was powerful and soft, even if it was better than that of other back rubbing masters, but it was too good to be limited.

But when he finished washing the dirt off his body and lay on the bed to let Tie Guan Li massage, the feeling was completely different. Tie Guan Li just took his hand and gently took it on his spine, and he suddenly felt a thrill all over his body, and a tingling sensation rushed from the tail vertebrae to the top of his head, and the whole person seemed to faint comfortably.

"Uh-huh......" He let out a long moan from his mouth, as if he had returned to his youth.

Then, Tie Guan Li's big hand danced on his body, and the bones of his body suddenly exploded, and a tingling sensation rushed straight to the top of his head, and suddenly he was like Zhang Chaoyang, "Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Tie Guan Li listened to Xiao Ding's moaning sound of "mmmmmmmm

Tie Guan Li smiled at Zhang Chaoyang and said, "Boss Zhang, Boss Ding's snoring is too noisy, why don't you go to the No. 6 room next door to avoid it?" ”

Only then did Zhang Chaoyang determine that Tie Guan Li was indeed sent by the Intelligence Department to pick him up. It's just that I didn't expect Tie Guan Li's massage technique to be so ingenious that he could make Xiao Ding fall asleep on the spot.

At the moment, he didn't say much, wrapped in a large bath towel, and came to the No. 6 room next door.

In room No. 6, Lin Jiangbei sat there in a bathrobe. Seeing Zhang Chaoyang push the door in, he stood up with a smile and said to Zhang Chaoyang: "Boss Zhang, my surname is Cheng, entrusted by Boss Long, I came to see you!" ”

While speaking, Lin Jiangbei dipped his hand in the water and drew a symbol on the table that only Zhang Chaoyang could understand.

Zhang Chaoyang heard the words "Boss Long", and saw the special symbol on the table, and confirmed that the current Mr. "Cheng" was really a joint person sent by the Intelligence Department, and he was also very surprised in his heart, and stretched out his hand to shake Lin Jiangbei tightly, "Mr. Cheng, I finally waited for you~!" ”

Lin Jiangbei shook Zhang Chaoyang with one hand, erased the special symbol on the table with the other hand, and said to Zhang Chaoyang: "Boss Zhang, time is very tight, let's make a long story short, where are the evidence materials you collected currently placed?" ”

"The evidence is stored in the secret compartment of my residence," Mr. Zhang said, "but now that the Shanghai office has a strict body search system for all those who leave the office, I can't take them out at all." ”

Before Lin Jiangbei came to see Zhang Chaoyang, he had already formulated several sets of response plans for Zhang Chaoyang to store the evidence in different places, and Zhang Chaoyang left the evidence materials in the office, which was also in his estimation.

"You can't take it out of the office, so do you have a chance to remake these materials into photographs?" Lin Jiangbei asked.

Lin Jiangbei said as he put a pocket watch in front of Zhang Chaoyang.

"What is this?" Zhang Chaoyang looked at Lin Jiangbei suspiciously.

"This is a TICKA pocket watch camera made in the UK." Lin Jiangbei said, "The film inside can take 35 photos at a time. You take it back, take a picture of the material you have in your hand, and then when the post office clerk comes over to deliver the letter to you, you take the opportunity to give him this pocket watch camera and bring it out. ”

"And a small camera like this?" Zhang Chaoyang picked up the pocket watch in front of him in disbelief and flipped through it in his hand.

Lin Jiangbei couldn't help laughing, Zhang Chaoyang was a member of the periphery of the intelligence station who became a monk halfway, unlike himself, who was an agent from a professional class who had undergone special spy training, and it was normal not to know that there was such an advanced spy camera in the world. In fact, this pocket watch spy camera was produced by the British Holden Company in 30 years, and the pocket watch camera in Lin Jiangbei's hand was produced by the Holden Company in 1914, 22 years ago.

"Yes, there are actually two such small cameras, one is made in the United Kingdom and the other is made in the United States, both of which were produced more than 30 years ago." Lin Jiangbei said, while taking the pocket watch camera from Zhang Chaoyang's hand, and carefully explained the use of this pocket watch camera for him.

"This is the shutter, the speed is only one gear, it is done by the force of a compression spring, just press her, you can dial the shutter stop to a fixed position, so that the window is completely open......"

The use of this pocket watch camera is very simple, Lin Jiangbei demonstrated it to Zhang Chaoyang twice, and he completely mastered it.

"That's it!" Zhang Chaoyang took this pocket watch camera and said excitedly, "I'll secretly retake all the materials when I go back tonight." I'll be able to hand it over to him tomorrow when the stack priest passes! ”

"Well, this matter can't be delayed, and the more it drags on, the easier it is to change." Lin Jiangbei nodded and said, "But you must also pay attention to your own safety, and only when you are sure that there is no problem can you take out the materials for remake." ”

"I know that." Zhang Chaoyang nodded and said, "My room is quite safe, at least for now, they won't rush into my room casually!" ”

"That's good!" Lin Jiangbei patted Zhang Chaoyang's shoulder, "Go back, your colleague is probably about to wake up!" ”

Zhang Chaoyang returned to the next door, Xiao Ding was still lying on the bed and falling asleep, and Tie Guan Li pushed his back unhurriedly. Seeing him come in, Tie Guan Li snorted at him and stretched out his hand to point at the barrel.

Zhang Chaoyang nodded, stuffed the pocket watch camera into the inner pocket of the clothes on the hanger, and then sat back on the bed and put his feet into the barrel.

Tie Guan Li smiled, stretched out his hand and rubbed Xiao Ding's big vertebral point twice, then pulled a small stool, connected the lamp, sat opposite Zhang Chaoyang, opened the toolbox and took out a knife to give Zhang Chaoyang a pedicure, Zhang Chaoyang leaned back, leaned against the wall and closed his eyes to rest.

After only a minute or two, Xiao Ding's snoring stopped abruptly, "Oops, why did I fall asleep?" ”

Xiao Ding turned over and jumped off the bed, looked at Zhang Chaoyang who was resting with his eyes closed, and then asked Tie Guan Li: "Master Gui, after I fell asleep just now, he didn't go out, right?" ”

"Nope!" Tie Guan Li concentrated on trimming Zhang Chaoyang's toenails, and he didn't look at Xiao Ding, "You didn't fall asleep for long, and he fell asleep too!" ”
