Just when the situation in Chongqing was stabilizing, the spy war in Shanghai had reached its most brutal and fierce moment.

In downtown Shanghai, almost every day in the middle of the night, there will be gunshots in the urban area, and the agents of the Shanghai station are completely reckless, constantly launching attacks again and again against the officials of the puppet government, making the situation in the whole Shanghai is rumored and tense, this situation has lasted for several months, not to mention the Japanese puppet agents, even the losses suffered by the Shanghai station itself are incomparably huge.

Wang Hanmin's action team members have almost changed, the original team brought back from Wuhan has long been lost, Wu Huarong brought more than a dozen action team members from the headquarters, and all of them died in several assassinations against Wang Reclamation, that is, Luo Wuqing, the guard of the bureau, was seriously injured in an operation and almost died.

As for the lost operatives, most of them died on the spot, and the rest all fell into the hands of Agent 76 headquarters, and many of them finally survived the torture and surrendered to the puppet government, turning their guns on their former comrades.

At present, except for a few cadres and veteran members, the members of the Shanghai Intelligence Station's operational team are all novices transferred from the National Salvation Army operating in southern Jiangsu.

In a house in a civilian area, the room was disorganized, and Wang Hanmin, the head of the Shanghai Intelligence Station, was packing up some documents in his hand, when Guan Han, the director of the Intelligence Department, walked in quickly.

"Stationmaster, everything is almost packed up, and you can evacuate at any time."

"Withdraw immediately, don't delay!" Wang Hanmin nodded.

After speaking, he looked at the furnishings in the house with some regret, and said self-deprecatingly: "This house is good, but it's a pity that the butt hasn't sat down yet, and I'm going to run away again, but fortunately, many things haven't been unpacked, otherwise it will be even more troublesome." ”

During this period of time, the Shanghai intelligence station has almost changed places with one shot, not to mention the foothold of the operatives, even the intelligence station organs have been relocated several times, and everyone is exhausted, but Wang Hanmin does not dare to be careless, as long as there is a trace of exposure, he will immediately change the location, and fortunately because of his caution, so far the intelligence station organs are still safe, otherwise they would have been approached by No. 76.

The two of them packed up their belongings and walked out of the door together, and there were also several agency personnel in the yard loading luggage on the cart.

At this time, Zhang Yong, the head of the telecommunications section, came over with a rattan box in his hand, which was a new-style radio station.

He looked at Wang Hanmin and hurriedly asked, "Stationmaster!" Do you want to go now? ”

Wang Hanmin nodded and said: "Well, go immediately, this operation lost three more people, I don't know if I live or die, there is one person here who knows this location, we must evacuate immediately, everyone is too conspicuous to go together, you take the people from the telecommunications department to go first, the radio must be optimistic, I will arrive later!" ”

Zhang Yong nodded and took the order and left quickly with a few personnel.

Wang Hanmin and Guan Han also went out, locked the courtyard gate, and then walked in the other direction with a few guards.

Wang Hanmin asked in a low voice as he walked, "How is the location of the action team's transfer?" ”

Guan Han nodded and said: "It has been arranged, these places of settlement are what I have prepared before, there is no problem with safety, but I have no spare safe house in my hand, I have to find some spare as soon as possible, I will go around after I settle, if there is a suitable one, rent it first!" ”

Speaking of this, he looked at Wang Hanmin, hesitated for a moment, and said again: "Stationmaster, often walk by the river, how can there be no wet shoes, such a high-intensity agent battle, we can't make a mistake at all, if we continue to fight like this, sooner or later something will happen, and the loss is too great, and the new personnel are not effective, almost every time we shoot, we ... Can we take a break? ”

Today's intelligence station is in a difficult situation, all the personnel are tense from top to bottom, sleep with one eye open, and the continuous loss of personnel has also made the entire intelligence station demoralized, and has begun to have a war-weary mood.

Of course, Wang Hanmin knew this, and his subordinates were indeed unbearable to fight again, but how could he be willing to do so, he smiled bitterly and said, "Say it lightly, rest?" Now the bureau has given a death order, and the funds and personnel are all unrestricted support, in a word, it is to fight with your life, and you must fight to the end with the puppet government! No matter the casualties, no matter the cost! If we dare to slack off, then Wu Huarong and the others can solve us on the spot and directly take over the intelligence station. ”

Speaking of this, he sighed: "We have no way out, we can only fight." ”

In the Shanghai intelligence station, there was also Wu Huarong and his entourage, whose status was no less than that of Wang Hanmin, and they also received orders from the headquarters to not only participate in the entire assassination operation, but also to supervise Wang Hanmin's mission.

Guan Han also knows the current difficult situation of Wang Hanmin, Wang Hanmin is originally a cautious person, and he does not approve of fighting with the Japanese and the puppet government at all.

However, the intention of the headquarters is even more obvious, the establishment of a puppet government in Shanghai, the military strength is difficult to reach, so it can only be attacked by secret service means, so the bureau needs to make some moves in Shanghai to show the committee the efforts of the Military Unification Bureau, this is a political chess, and such extreme measures have to be adopted.

The two of them were depressed, and they didn't say anything all the way, and rushed to the transfer location.

In the afternoon of the same day, after arranging everything, Guan Han changed his outfit and dressed up as a businessman, and came to a real estate agency in the western street of the French Concession.

Housing leasing in Shanghai has always been a thriving business, and a large number of migrants are constantly pouring in, and more housing and housing are needed to resettle, so many real estate agencies have set up.

This housing agency, Guan Han is the first time to come, for the sake of safety, he only goes to each housing agency once, as long as the location is transferred, he will go to a new company to find a house, anyway, there are many such companies in the Shanghai concession, enough for him to choose.

Guan Han looked up at the signboard, then stepped forward and pushed the door in, only to see that there were already many people in a hall, some talking in low voices, and some carefully looking at the house signs on the walls.

There were a few agents interspersed, explaining something to customers from time to time, Guan Han did not go directly to the broker, but came to the wall, carefully looked at the house notice, and looked for it seriously.

After a while, his eyes lit up, and he soon found a house suitable for his requirements, located in a relatively remote area, and the area was large enough, so that the action team members could be placed in a centralized manner, and it also saved the personnel from being scattered and unmanageable, so that the safety was greatly guaranteed.

Guan Han is happy in his heart, this kind of house is usually difficult to find, he often has to spend a long time to find various real estate companies, sometimes he can't find one for several days, but today's luck is really good.

Guan Han immediately dragged a broker, pointed to a listing on the notice, and asked, "Little brother, is this house still in your hands?" ”

The real estate agent is a young man, speaking Shanghainese, and quickly nodded and replied: "Still in hand, this is just the day before yesterday, this boss, at a glance you have a vision, such a house is not easy to find on weekdays, now in the concession, such a large area of housing is not much, don't look at the location is a little biased, but used to open a small factory or workshop, is no more suitable, this little money will be earned back, I tell you, now do not rent, a day late will not be..."

This man of housing economy is articulate and eloquent, and soon boasts about the property, as if the customer does not rent his house, it is like losing money in the water in vain.

Guan Han didn't say much, directly interrupted him, and said: "Okay, I look good, but you have to let me see the house!" ”

The real estate agent saw that Guan Han did want to rent, and he was overjoyed, the area of this property is not small, the transaction amount will not be small, and his commission is also indispensable, he quickly nodded, said hello to the manager, and walked out of the hall with Guan Han.

When he went out, he beckoned to the waiting rickshaw and said, "This place is a little far away, near the sandy land on the west side of the concession, we will walk for a while." ”

Guan Han smiled and nodded, without saying much, the two of them got into two rickshaws, all the way to the west, and when they reached the ground, the two got out of the car.

Guan Han looked around, only to see that there were no large buildings around, they were all low tiled houses, and there were a lot fewer pedestrians on the road, most of them were coarse cloth and short clothes, obviously ordinary people, and he couldn't help nodding secretly, the location here was very suitable for him.

The agent took Guan Han for a distance, and soon came to the gate of a compound, and at this time, the gate suddenly opened, and two men in suits walked out quickly.

A middle-aged man's face was ugly, and as he walked, he kept scolding in his mouth, and his mouth was full of relish, obviously with a northern accent.

A young man next to him was also wearing a work suit, dressed very similar to the real estate agent next to Guan Han, and he was still holding a document bag in his hand, and the two of them seemed to be peers, and the young man kept persuading and pulled the middle-aged man out.

"Who are these people? Where else do you have to ask someone to rent a house? Why, can't we Tianjin people rent a house in Shanghai? I can't look down on this house! Ahh ”

The middle-aged man was annoyed, jumped to his feet and scolded a few words, and then left indignantly under the persuasion of the man on the side.

Guan Han looked at this scene and asked the real estate agent in a strange whisper, "Why, the landlord here still picks these when looking for tenants?" ”

The real estate agent was also confused, shrugged his shoulders and shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.

While they were suspicious outside, in a room in the compound, a man dressed in short clothes turned to a man next to him and asked, "Is this person really not?" This is the fourth tenant to come to the door, and the next one, I don't even know what excuse to evict someone! ”
