Chapter 13: Meeting

At three o'clock in the middle of the night, the moon was dark and the wind was high.

A mansion on Yuyuan Road is pitch black, except for a dim door lamp hanging in front of the house.

A figure quickly crossed the wall and landed silently in the courtyard.

The car room is in the backyard, and the masked black shadow comes to the door along the wall a few times up and down, and after finding that the iron door is locked, he takes out his tools and opens the door gate of the car room three or two times.

After dodging in, he gently closed the iron door.

Soon, a faint flashlight flashed through the crack in the door.

……

In the evening, in a café on the ground floor of a luxury apartment on Petain Road, Pu Su, who was uncharacteristically sitting by the window, asked the waiter to buy a newspaper from the newsboy who was outside the hawker.

The apartment is named after Picardier, a large region in northern France, and is called I.S.S. Picardie Apartments.

The situation is no longer what it used to be for the special agents of the military command. Ever since Wang Mutian, the former head of the Shanghai Station of the Military Command Bureau, defected to the enemy and joined the Japanese puppets last year, he has suffered major blows one after another.

The head of the dignified Shanghai District Intelligence Station openly defected, and the internal losses of the military command can be imagined. It is also appropriate to use the frightened bird to describe the current military command Shanghai Intelligence Station.

This meeting was initiated by Gu Ji, and the place was also arranged by him.

In a bungalow opposite, Alyosha and her sniper were hiding behind the curtains, observing Pusu's position with a Zeiss Dialythan scope.

At the intersections on both sides of Petain Road, veteran patrolmen were assigned to check passing vehicles and people, and every passer-by was allowed to pass through the procedures of checking their documents and searching their bodies.

The arrangement on the bright side is to reassure Chen Gongshu, the current head of the Shanghai Station of the Military Command.

His predecessor, Wang Mutian, who was also known as the "Four King Kongs" under Boss Dai, was abducted by No. 76 in the concession in broad daylight. A series of dramatic changes followed, culminating in the apostasy.

Chen Gongshu, who has learned from the past, rarely shows up now, and his intelligence officers don't know where he is hiding.

This time Gu Ji asked for a meeting, and he thought he was taking a great risk.

The irony is that the current situation is one of mutual jealousy.

As far as Pu Su is concerned, he also has to guard against what preparations Chen Gongshu has on his side. In case something went wrong during the meeting, Chen Gongshu suddenly attacked, and he couldn't help but take precautions.

A veteran spy like Chen Gongshu has participated in a very high level of agent training.

After all, it is the backbone of the state-level intelligence department. The Nationalist Government has always attached importance to intelligence work, and even if the government is weak, it is really nothing to train a few well-trained spies.

And this Chen Gongshu is famous. is known as one of the "Four King Kongs" under the head of the military command spy boss Dai, and his ability can be seen.

He organized the assassination of Wang Wei and Wang Wei, the top traitors in Hanoi last year.

Although the killer on the mission hit the wrong target in a panic. But the whole operation, from planning to implementation, and then everyone retreated safely, it is enough to see that this person is not an ordinary person.

Pu Su was indeed a little self-aggrandized.

After returning from Moscow, he has been training a reserve agent force in the base area as an expert instructor.

Usually, the superior leaders are quite appreciative of his teaching achievements, and there are not a few students who worship him personally, and naturally some emotions that look down on the world have grown in their hearts.

Especially when he heard that Gu Zhengzhang, who had only been trained in the Cheka for only three months, had created a series of legends after returning to China, it made him feel a sense of pride that "I don't know how powerful I am if I change myself".

Fortunately, this emotion quickly aroused alarm after meeting Gu Ji and them, and they began to introspect.

Even Gu Zhengzhang, a traitor he disdained quite a lot, had actually experienced a hundred battles long before receiving Cheka training. His original foundation was very good, and he was originally accepted into the organization by the strange people on the rivers and lakes.

And he himself was just sent by the organization to study in another school as a scholar, and so far he has not really been brutally tested by the intelligence front.

Compared with Gu Ji, Alyosha, or Chen Gongshu, who is about to arrive, he can only be regarded as an intern at most.

What it means not to pass an internship, Pu Su knows very well.

……

The clock in the café pointed to six o'clock.

The white Russian waiter, who was wiping his cup behind the bar, nodded slightly towards Pu Su.

Soon, Gu Ji and a tall man pushed the door and walked in.

"I've been waiting for a long time, Brother Ziyan!"

"Brother Yunfei, you're welcome! I've just arrived a while ago. ”

Pu Su got up and said hello to Gu Ji.

The person behind Gu Ji didn't say a word, and his hand was copied in his coat pocket and looked gloomy.

"Brother Gongshu, please take a seat."

Under Gu Ji's beckoning, Chen Gongshu let go of the waiter who wanted to help him take off his coat, lifted the hem of his coat and sat on the sofa away from the window.

"Brother Gongshu, what should you drink?"

The waiter handed over the menu, and Gu Ji asked Chen Gongshu politely.

"Ceylon black tea with milk, big pot."

Chen Gongshu didn't look at the menu, and directly ordered the waiter.

"It's good, in fact, the espresso here tastes good. Then I'll have a cup of espresso. ”

Gu Ji handed the menu to the waiter and said.

"I've ordered a big pot, drink it with me, so as not to waste it. It is not easy to sleep peacefully when drinking coffee at night, and Brother Yunfei has to change this habit. ”

Chen Gongshu snorted and looked at Gu Ji with a look of concern.

"Okay, I'll taste your Ceylon black tea today."

"Drinking black tea is a habit of the British, and I don't want Brother Gongshu to have this Yaxing."

Seeing the waiter leave with the menu, Gu Ji said with a smile.

"Where did you come from, it's just that I haven't had a good appetite lately, and black tea and milk warm my stomach......"

The two began to greet each other affectionately, just like colleagues in a foreign company who went out to dinner together after work.

Pu Su saw this scene in his eyes, his face was silent, and his heart was turbulent.

"This is behind enemy lines, and this is the true epitome of the islands that are now is."

He couldn't help but have this thought.

No one feels safe here, no matter which side of the faction. A seemingly random order contains complex information.

Chen Gongshu must have been afraid of poisoning.

The place was arranged by him for Gu Ji, which shows that he has a lot of trust in Gu Ji. It's just that it's not enough to be completely trusted, so he doesn't dare order drinks and food.

Large pots of black tea are shared, at least don't worry about this aspect. This should also be a knee-jerk move as a veteran top agent.

If he was not mistaken, he would never have drunk the tea first. And I won't eat with them, and I should leave after talking.

At this time, the two ended their politeness, and Gu Ji began to introduce the two.

"That's a coincidence. Brother Ziyan and I are alumni, and Brother Gongshu is my classmate, so it is not a small fate for us to sit together today. ”

Although Chen Gongshu was admitted to Huangpu one period earlier than Gu Ji, he was regarded as a fourth-class student. It was only because of illness that he was postponed to the Whampoa Military Academy, and he studied in the fifth police department.

At that time, he entered the fifth phase of the Huangpu Military Academy from Guangdong, but he was not affected by the "Qing Party Movement", unlike Gu Ji in the Wuhan branch, and their batch of cadets were almost all hidden after graduation.

It's just that he joined the Lixing Club at the same time as Gu Ji, and they both joined around 1932. After that, Gu Ji was sent to Shanghai to patrol the house to lurk, and he entered the "Honggong Ancestral Hall" special training class in the same year.

"Honggong Ancestral Hall" is quite famous in the history of Nanjing. At the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, it was the residence of Hong Chengchou, and after Hong Chengchou's death, it was built as an ancestral hall. After the Northeast changed banners, Zhang Xueliang set up his office in Nanjing in a western-style house in the Honggong Ancestral Hall.

Later, he donated the bungalow to Daley as the office of the Secret Service.

The official name of the "Honggong Ancestral Hall" should be "Special Police Officer Training Course of the General Staff Headquarters". In the early summer of 1932, the training class of Honggong Temple officially opened. Principal Chang Kaishen attended the opening ceremony in person, and Daley accompanied him into the auditorium, while everyone else stopped outside the door.

This place is where Dai Li, the head of the military command, is where Boss Dai specializes in training super agents to assassinate traitors and Japanese. Chen Gongshu was selected in the first batch because of his outstanding talent, and since then his official fortune has been prosperous.

The reason why he is called one of Boss Dai's "Four King Kongs" is because he has planned and presided over too many assassination operations, according to rough statistics, no less than 100 times, and many of them are traitors.

Of course, many of these assassination attempts failed, but they also greatly deterred the arrogance of those traitors, and also increased his murderous reputation.

Before Wang Mutian's rebellion in Shanghai, Chen Gongshu had been active in the north. He served as the head of the Tianjin Station of the Military Command Bureau and the head of the North China Region, which can be described as an intelligence officer.

At the end of last year, he was ordered to be transferred to Shanghai by Boss Dai to take over this mess, which was a very reluctant drudgery for him.
