Chapter 3 Tasks
Shiny leather shoes stepped on the stained jacquard carpet and walked silently.
Pu Su walked to the door of his room and looked at the empty corridor on the left and right, and immediately glued two colorless silk threads on the door frame and the crack of the door.
The seemingly plain silk thread is actually made of a variety of special materials, which the Soviet counterparts called "spider silk".
When he went out, he glued the "spider silk" to the door frame. Whenever a curious intruder tries to break down the door, he is greeted by a German grenade hanging behind the door.
After making sure that no one had touched the room, he turned and went downstairs, picked up the telephone on the account desk at the corner of the stairs and dialed a number.
"Hello?"
A woman's voice came from the earpiece.
"It's Hongxiang Department Store."
Pu Su asked in Shanghainese.
"No, you're wrong."
"But I copied this number from a newspaper."
Then Pu Su called out a random number.
"The last two numbers are incorrect. We are 66. ”
The other party hung up the phone.
Pu Su put down the earpiece and made sure that no one was watching before going back upstairs.
So far so good.
The 66 reported by the other party on the phone proved that everything was going well. If 44 is said over there, it means that he must evacuate immediately.
After returning to the room and carefully inspecting the windowsill and window, Pu Su took off his coat and fell heavily on the bed.
……
In Bai Mantong's clinic before, he waited for the contact person Gu Ji.
Gu Ji also studied industrial engineering at the University of Lyon for two years in his early years, and the two are considered alumni.
At that time, Gu Ji did not agree with the concept of the Comintern, and wanted to return to China to serve the Nationalist Government. This is also very normal for a child from a family like his.
Unexpectedly, Gu Ji, who came from the family of a high-ranking government official, also gave up industry to save the country after returning to China, and soon switched to Huangpu and became a student of the fifth phase of Huangpu.
After entering the school, he also went to Wuhan to join the Northern Expedition. It's just that after the Qing Party Movement, most of the students in this period have not been reused after graduation.
Gu Ji, who returned to his home in Nanjing, joined the predecessor of the Blue Coat Society, Lixing Society, after a period of time. After that, he was sent to Shanghai by the military commander and infiltrated the patrol room of the French Concession as a detective.
It is worth mentioning that Pu Su, a capable senior, has repeatedly solved major cases not long after arriving in Shanghai.
The newcomer Gu Ji not only handled several major cases in the French Concession, but also eliminated the White Russian gangsters who had been entrenched in the French Concession for many years. He also used the armed forces of the Anglo-American public concession to exterminate the Japanese Black Dragon Society's spy nest stationed in Hongkou, Shanghai, in one fell swoop-[Inoue Mansion].
What is especially important is that Gu Ji followed the clues of a homicide case and solved a shocking case.
At that time, Japanese spies smuggled a train of poison gas tankers from Moscow to Shanghai, and at the last moment, Gu Ji and our underground party organization jointly destroyed it. In addition, a batch of gold was accidentally seized, which was then transported to the Soviet area by our underground organization in batches, thus increasing and enriching the economic power of our base area.
In a series of operations, Gu Ji himself was shot and wounded many times, and he showed his extraordinary courage and fearlessness in several operations. (For the specific plot, see "Lonely Island")
In recognition of his unfair concession policy, the French government not only promoted him to his position, but also awarded him a French medal of honor.
It is also one of the most famous in the world and represents the highest honour that the French government can bestow.
Later, Pu Su, a senior, was naturally reused by the French Concession Board of Directors. Now he has become the chief inspector of the public board of directors, and all the inspectors in the concession are under his control. Not only are French uniforms issued, but French patrols can also be deployed.
The position of chief inspector is not only in China where no one can compete with him, but even the French have to buy it.
And during this period, Gu Ji, who was deeply desperate for the Nationalist government, secretly joined the underground party of the Chinese Communist Party. This famous police star in the French Concession of Shanghai has actually been a double agent for a long time.
With the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, the situation became increasingly severe, Nanjing had already fallen, and the Pacific War was about to break out. The military commander of the Nationalist Government recently secretly ordered Gu Ji to return to Chongqing to take over other important tasks.
Recently, there have been a series of latent military intelligence personnel who have lost contact, and the military commander judged that it was the handiwork of No. 76. Since it has lost its value to continue to lurk in the French Concession, it was decided to recall Gu Ji back to Chongqing.
After receiving Gu Ji's report, the intelligence department at my higher level also approved Gu Ji's transfer to Chongqing, considering that the whole country is mainly anti-Japanese and that Gu Ji's transfer to Chongqing can give full play to his own value in the anti-Japanese front.
It's just that at present, Wang's puppet regime uses spy organizations to implement brutal and high-handed rule in its jurisdiction, and bloodily hunts down and kills anti-Japanese patriots. Actively cooperated with the Japanese military to lure the Chongqing Nationalist Government to surrender in a vain attempt to disintegrate the anti-Japanese national united front.
In particular, the headquarters of the Wang puppet secret service established in Shanghai, No. 76, which is called "the headquarters of the special agents of the special committee of the Central Executive Committee of the Kuomintang," was the most harmful to our anti-Japanese work.
At that time, Japanese spies (special high classes) were useless in Shanghai, so Kenji Dohihara, the head of the Japanese secret service, thought of creating a spy organization like the Central Committee and the Military Command - No. 76.
The members of this secret service included both renegade agents of the Kuomintang (traitors to the Central Committee and the military command) and some hooligans from the Youth Gang. It was this organ, which seemed to be gathered by a rabble, that repeatedly inflicted heavy losses on the Shanghai, Nanjing, and Tianjin stations of the Kuomintang Central and Military Commands.
On weekdays, the spies of No. 76 actively acted as the minions of the Japanese invaders, not only killing anti-Japanese patriots, but also assassinating and plotting rebellion against four types of targets.
The first were the Communists and progressives; the second is the spies of the Kuomintang Central and Military Commands, and the third is the administrative personnel in the concession, such as the inspector in the patrol room; The fourth category is the financial practitioners of the national government in the concessions.
In view of the fact that the madness of No. 76 has caused great harm to our anti-Japanese people. After the study of the superiors, it was decided that before Gu Ji left Shanghai, he would introduce Pu Su to the military commander. Assist Pu Su to join the military intelligence organization and infiltrate No. 76 with a cover identity.
Once this plan succeeded, Pu Su became a de facto three-sided agent. At the same time, he has the triple identity of the underground party of the Communist Party of China, the intelligence officer of the military command, and the pseudo-spy of Wang.
And on the surface, it is a chess piece appointed by the military commander to play No. 76, which is very useful.
After meeting Gu Ji, a senior who had known him in France, Pu Su found that he had a very clear idea. Gu Ji has already made preparations, and three days later, he will be arranged to meet with the person in charge of the Shanghai Station of the Military Command.
National disaster is at the head! The Shanghai Station of the Military Command, which is located on an isolated island in the occupied area, is also looking for talents.
This afternoon, a military intelligence station in the concession has just been cracked, and the spies of No. 76 have gone directly to arrest people. Gu Ji delayed the joint precisely because he needed to deal with the aftermath and was late for a while.
Introduced as a hero who seems to have a promising future in the military command, in Gu Ji's opinion, it is not a big problem to arrange for Pu Su to join the military command at this time. He already has an idea of how to do it.
It's just that he didn't shy away from it, and openly and honestly said to the junior who he hadn't seen for many years: "It's not a small risk to succeed in No. 76", and let him prepare for the worst.
Next, Pu Su and the senior discussed the details of the whole plan in detail, and put forward many ideas and suggestions of their own. It wasn't until the end that everything was properly dealt with, and the two of them came to an end.
Tomorrow at noon, Ren Liansheng, a subordinate who has won Gu Ji's trust and the head of the knife-faced jujube core, will bring Pu Su's new concession identity. At the same time, after Gu Ji left Shanghai, Ren Liansheng would also cooperate with Pu Su's needs and actions at any time.
With him, the inspector of the Political Department, things will be much easier.
And Bai Mantong's clinic will be his transportation station here in the future.
This clinic is very important, and a large number of medicines in short supply have been transported to the border area by water from here through the relationship between this clinic and Gu Ji.
When we met in the evening, Pu Su could see at a glance that the relationship between Dr. Bai and his senior should be unusual. Using the clinic as a traffic stop, he felt that there was no problem with his alertness assessment.
It's just that in a few days, I'm going to ask Inspector Ren to help buy some parts, and he's going to assemble a radio station and put it in the clinic in case of emergency.
As for the secret traffic station assigned to him by the organization, it is a different line. He can only be contacted by a single line, and there can be no entanglement between the two sides.
So far, Dr. Bai and Ren Liansheng are not even members of the organization. can only be regarded as a progressive patriot who was influenced by Gu Ji and sympathized with the revolution.
Gu Ji has not developed them to join the organization, and there should be his considerations.
