Chapter 38: Metamorphosis
Seeing Dai Li's puzzled gaze, Lu Chengzhou knew the reason, he hurriedly took off his braces in public, straightened his waist, and saluted Dai Li with a standard military salute.
"Looks like you're ready to graduate from your makeup class." Dai Li saw the changes before and after Lu Chengzhou, and his face showed appreciation.
Lu Chengzhou went to the SWAT team, and he actually disguised himself, and he was so realistic, he almost deceived himself.
Mao Shanyan, who was next to him, saw the changes in Lu Chengzhou, and his eyes also showed a strange look.
When he was in Xiongzhenlou, he despised Lu Chengzhou.
Lu Chengzhou looked a little obscene, and there was a ruffian on his body, which he didn't like very much.
However, after Lu Chengzhou took out the braces, his temperament also changed.
"I wanted to change my image a little bit during the training, but I didn't want to cause trouble to the group in the future." Lu Chengzhou said sincerely.
"I originally wanted to bring you to Hangzhou, but I was worried about those two Japanese spies. In the future, if you are in the SWAT class, report directly to Mao Shanyan if there is any situation. Dai Li said.
"Yes." Lu Chengzhou said.
"You have studied at the Haigu Police Training Institute for two years, and you have already joined the work, so you can't be trained in the SWAT squad for too long. Which of the courses of the SWAT class can be compressed? When Dai Li said the back, he looked at Mao Shanyan.
"At present, the special police class offers courses such as special agent technology, intelligence operations, scientific reconnaissance methods, foreign languages, political training, outlines of domestic and foreign political parties, pistol shooting, automobile science, car driving, photography, forgery, and arrest methods, as well as group meetings and commemorative weeks, with a total of 780 hours of class time for all courses." Mao Shanyan said slowly.
Dai Li told him that Lu Chengzhou only had one month, and hoped that he could arrange a separate class schedule for Lu Chengzhou.
"Your foreign language should be good, right?" Dai Li asked for Lu Chengzhou.
"I have no problem speaking and writing English and Japanese, and I can speak a few words in German." Lu Chengzhou said.
"We offer elective courses in English, Russian, German, Japanese and other foreign languages, with a total of 78 hours." Mao Shanyan said immediately.
"Okay, remove the foreign language elective." Dai Li said.
"Report to Mr. Dai, my pistol shooting results in the police training institute are excellent, ten rapid fire can be above 90 rings, in addition, grappling combat is also okay." Lu Chengzhou said.
"The training sessions for each of these two are 78 hours each." Mao Shanyan said immediately.
"Your achievements in the police training institute can only be recognized if we pass the assessment." Dai Li smiled, Lu Chengzhou was already half an agent, and the others needed half a year of training, and he could finish it in a month.
"You can take the assessment at any time." Lu Chengzhou said confidently.
"Okay, you arrange a place, go now." Dai Li likes Lu Chengzhou's confident energy.
Mao Shanyan quickly went to arrange it, but the first thing he arranged was the foreign language assessment.
Lu Chengzhou, who wears braces, has a somewhat distorted pronunciation, but in general, it is much stronger than that of the students in the SWAT class.
Lu Chengzhou was in the British Concession, he could talk directly with the British, and he could communicate with Kawasaki Hiroshi in Japanese, and he had no problem with the instructors of the police academy.
The next pistol shooting, Lu Chengzhou didn't brag, ten rapid fires, a total score of ninety-two rings, this result is already quite good.
As for grappling and grappling, Mao Shanyan arranged for him to fight with Jin Timing, an instructor in the SWAT squad.
Jin Timing is not tall, his eyes are like electricity, and his movements are very agile.
In the face of such a professional instructor, Lu Chengzhou felt a lot of pressure.
However, he still held out for a few minutes before he was defeated.
"This classmate has good skills." After the instructor waited, he said to Dai Li.
As an instructor, his pressure is actually no less than that of Lu Chengzhou. If he loses in front of Dai Li and Mao Shanyan, a hairy young man, Geng Huo, he will lose face.
"Although your grappling performance is good, what Instructor Jin is best at is forgery, and you have to learn from Instructor Jin with an open mind." Dai Li admonished.
"In the future, please ask Instructor Jin for more advice." Lu Chengzhou said sincerely.
"Well said, well said." Jin Timing smiled.
Dai Li and Mao Shanyan personally accompanied him, which shows that the identity of this new student is not simple.
Lu Chengzhou, alias Geng Huo, studied in the special police class of Xiongzhenlou for a month.
This month, Lu Chengzhou has lived a very fulfilling life.
All the instructors know that "Geng Huo" is only a temporary training, and they must not only seize the time to catch up with the learning progress of the current special police class, but also graduate earlier than their current classmates.
Lu Chengzhou was in the SWAT class, not only using a pseudonym, but also wearing makeup, whether it was his face, the tone of his speech, or his movements, which were different from usual.
Although he participated in the SWAT class, it was difficult to guess his identity after graduation.
In a month, Lu Chengzhou learned to drive a car and also learned simple repairs.
At the same time, he had a deeper understanding of the Three People's Principles, in other words, his theoretical level was strengthened.
In this month, Lu Chengzhou should have learned the best in agent technology, intelligence operations, and scientific reconnaissance methods.
Lu Chengzhou has practiced, or rather, he is practicing, and the theories he has learned can be used immediately.
Lu Chengzhou felt that if he hadn't been lucky in Haigu before, his true identity might have been exposed.
Originally, he was still a little puzzled by the fact that he kept Yan Hairong as a military commander, but now he realizes that this is not only to protect himself, but also to pass on false information to the Japanese through Yan Hairong.
Even, Yan Hairong can become his substitute ghost at a critical moment.
A month is not a long time, but Lu Chengzhou has completed the transformation from a junior agent to a senior undercover agent in the SWAT team.
He not only summed up his previous experience, but also applied what he had learned.
After Lu Chengzhou met Dai Li on the first day, Mao Shanyan gave him a task afterwards to record the words and deeds of other students in the SWAT class.
Lu Chengzhou didn't know if anyone else had recorded his actions, but he guessed that there should be.
This month, Lu Chengzhou and his classmates have neither maintained a very close relationship nor are they particularly estranged.
On the contrary, he got very close to Mao Shanyan, or rather, Mao Shanyan appreciated him very much.
Lu Chengzhou is very strange, is it because of his special task? Or did Dai Li attach special importance to him?
Until one time, Lu Chengzhou accidentally learned that the reason why Mao Shanyan valued him was because of his name.
Mao Shanyan is very superstitious, and he lacks fire in the five elements, so he deliberately used the name "Mao Shanyan".
And Lu Chengzhou's pseudonym is "Geng Huo", Mao Shanyan feels that being close to Lu Chengzhou can also make up for his fire.
"Geng Huo, the instructors have reported that your results are very good, and I will prepare a comprehensive assessment for you separately in two days." Mao Shanyan said while looking at the materials recorded by Lu Chengzhou.
"Listen to Mr. Mao's arrangement." Lu Chengzhou said respectfully.
