Chapter 728: Courage Reappears (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
After Ning Zhiheng returned to his residence from Junpei Uehara's official residence, he locked the door of the study and immediately took over the pen and paper.
Among today's guests are several intelligence officers under Junpei Uehara, whose images are very important and may be useful someday in the future.
He has a super strong memory, and he carefully recalls the faces in his mind, and slowly sketches them out in his pen.
Fortunately, these faces were all seen by him, and he didn't have to listen to other people's descriptions as before, and repeatedly revised them back and forth, so he wrote very quickly, until two o'clock in the morning to sketch out all four portraits, and the last one was the portrait of the Takasaki Shigeo Nakasa.
The reason why Ning Zhiheng wants to paint it is to repeat it, no matter how strong a person's memory is, after a period of time, it will gradually blur or even forget, after the pen is depicted, he will have a very clear image in his mind, and it is not easy to forget for a long time.
After the four portraits were finished, he memorized them all over again, then took a camera and took them down, and took off the film and put them away.
Finally, he lit a match, burned the four paintings, and watched them burn to ashes before they were cleaned up.
In the next few days, Junpei Uehara was busy with official business before the war and did not have time to accompany Ning Zhiheng, so Ning Zhiheng except for occasionally going to talk and chat with Junpei Uehara, the rest of the time was to tour around Wuhan City.
Wuhan is located in the east of the Jianghan Plain, the Yangtze River and its Han River traverse the center of the city, dividing the central urban area of Wuhan into three, forming a pattern of three towns of Wuhan across the river.
Ning Zhiheng only stayed in Wuhan for three months before, during which he had no time to visit the scenery because of the preparation of the second place and the tight time.
At the same time, I investigated the situation of the commercial market in Wuhan, Wuhan is an important town in central China, one of the metropolises of the Republic of China, especially Hankou Town, the economy is very prosperous, many foreign banks have opened branches in Hankou, the United States Citibank is one of them, and Miller, an intelligence peddler, once worked in this bank.
However, now because of the relationship between the Japanese, many businesses are barely able to make ends meet, and the whole market is not in a recession.
Ning Zhiheng took advantage of the tour to return to his former official residence and office, but unfortunately they were all gone.
At the same time, in another corner of Wuhan City, a young man wearing a police hat and a black police uniform was walking briskly down the street, and soon came to the door of a small Chinese medicine shop.
He glanced around from the corner of his eye, and when he saw that there was nothing unusual, he stepped inside.
There was also a customer in the Chinese medicine shop who was taking medicine, and the thin old man behind the counter saw the young man walking in, nodded slightly, and did not pause in his hands, and quickly took the medicine for the customer, and sent him out of the door, seeing that there was no one in the store, then he turned around and whispered to the young man: "Go and say later!" ”
The young policeman nodded, and the two men walked quickly into the back hall of the store, where they sat opposite each other.
The young policeman was the first to ask, "Uncle Quan, I saw the sign of meeting, what is the important matter of looking for me so urgently?" ”
This young policeman is Miao Yongyi, the head of the Wuhan Station of the Military Command Bureau, who has been lurking in Wuhan City.
At that time, Miao Yongyi was transferred to Wuhan Station, and when Wuhan was about to fall, all the members of Wuhan Station took off their military uniforms, forged files, changed their identities, and lurked on the spot.
Miao Yongyi, alias Zhang Xinli, was arranged by the Military Command Bureau to enter the police station as a small sergeant, and after the Japanese occupied Wuhan, they did not make more changes to the original police system, anyway, they also needed some Chinese to help them maintain the place, and Miao Yongyi successfully lurked.
And Uncle Quan is his contact with the underground party, Miao Yongyi because of his special identity, high level of secrecy, belongs to the intelligence officer directly managed by the headquarters, so he is directly led by Uncle Quan, who has a high status in the underground party organization in Wuhan.
Uncle Quan nodded and said, "There is indeed something important looking for you, did the police station arrest Chai Guoan, the owner of Chuwen Newspaper yesterday afternoon, as well as two editors-in-chief and four staff members?" ”
Miao Yongyi nodded and replied, "I know about this. ”
"Do you know why?"
Although Miao Yongyi is only a sergeant in the police station, because of his cheerful personality and love to make friends, he has a lot of energy in the police station, and many things can't be hidden from him.
"The reason for the incident is very simple, mainly because Chai Guoan, the owner of the newspaper, offended Ma Yaowu, the director of the Wuhan Police Bureau, and was made a black hand by the bureau."
It turns out that Miao Yongyi really knows the reason for this matter, the newspaper owner Chai Guoan is a wealthy businessman in Wuhan City, and he still has a lot of industries under his name, and Chuwen Newspaper is just one of them.
Chai Guoan's family is rich and cautious, and he has nothing to do with Ma Yaowu, but he didn't expect the problem to be his son.
Ma Yaowu married the third aunt, and the third aunt didn't know when she got along with Chai Guoan's son, and in the end the matter was exposed and was cuckolded, how could Ma Yaowu take a break.
As a result, Chai Guoan's son ignored it, and ran away directly with his third aunt, which stabbed the beecomb.
Ma Yaowu is the director of the police headquarters, not only is he powerful and powerful, but someone has a gun, so he immediately hit the door directly, Chai Guoan had no choice but to wipe his son's buttocks, lost a lot of money to Ma Yaowu, and promised to find the third aunt back and hand it over to Ma Yaowu to deal with, and finally prevaricated this matter.
But the aftermath of this matter is not over, Ma Yaowu got a lot of money, but the breath in his heart did not pass, plus the money was easy to come by, so he set his eyes on Chai Guoan, and came to blackmail several times, Chai Guoan was unbearable, and finally the two of them tore their faces and broke up unhappily.
Ma Yaowu wanted to deal with a businessman, and he didn't have too many means, so he immediately made all kinds of tricks, coerced and lured, coerced and coerced the typesetting and printing workers of the Chuwen Daily, and did tricks in the Chuwen Daily the next day, and published a front-page anti-Japanese article.
By the time the people in the newspaper found out, a lot of the newspapers had already been dispersed, and as a result, Ma Yaowu took the newspaper and reported it to the Wuhan Special High School in Japan, reporting that Chai Guoan's Chuwen Daily was propagating anti-Japanese remarks and was a hidden anti-Japanese element.
The Japanese controlled the city of Wuhan very strictly, especially the severe suppression of anti-Japanese public opinion among the people, after the occupation of Wuhan, many Chinese were killed for this reason, and now seeing that this problem has arisen again, the special high class quickly ordered Ma Yaowu to arrest the relevant people of Chuwen Daily.
So Ma Yaowu, who had been prepared a long time ago, directly led people to break into the Chuwen Newspaper and arrested Chai Guoan and the two editors-in-chief of the newspaper, as well as the four staff members who were working in the newspaper at that time.
Not only that, Ma Yaowu also sealed all the properties under Chai Guoan's name, and has begun to embezzle the property of the Chai family.
When Uncle Quan heard this, he couldn't help but slap his palms with both hands, and said with annoyance: "It turns out that this is the reason, this is really a disaster!" ”
Miao Yongyi looked at Uncle Quan in surprise and asked softly, "What, this matter has anything to do with us?" ”
Uncle Quan nodded, and said helplessly: "Chai Guoan has nothing to do with us, but Pei Wenrui, the editor-in-chief of Chuwen Daily, is our person, this time he was suddenly arrested, all the personnel on his work line are not safe, we urgently need to find out his situation, and rescue him as soon as possible." ”
Hearing Uncle Quan's narration, Miao Yongyi quickly realized that the editor-in-chief of the newspaper, Pei Wenrui, must not have a simple identity in the party, otherwise he would not have made a high-level like Uncle Quan so nervous.
"Uncle Quan, is Pei Wenrui's identity important?" Miao Yongyi asked.
Uncle Quan sighed and replied, "Very important! ”
He didn't explain much, in fact, Pei Wenrui's real identity is one of the members of the Standing Committee of the Wuhan Municipal Party Committee, this is the absolute high-level of the Wuhan underground party organization, and he knows too many secrets, and this time the problem is really very serious.
"This is a bit troublesome, this matter has informed the Japanese special high class, the Japanese have always regarded us Chinese as grass mustard, they are very likely to shoot everyone in order to kill a hundred people, they do this kind of thing."
Miao Yongyi's analysis is not alarmist, in fact, the attitude of the Central China Dispatch Army towards the Chinese has always been fierce and brutal, since the landing in Shanghai, countless tragedies have been created in Central China, the Nanjing Massacre is only one of them, after the occupation of Wuhan, it is also a killing and plundering, under the high pressure of the Japanese, the citizens live trembling.
Now that Pei Wenrui has been arrested, even if it does not endanger the underground party organization, the death of such a high-level under the guns of the Japanese is also a great loss to the entire organization.
Uncle Quan also said anxiously: "I'm worried about this, our organization doesn't have a strong relationship in Wuhan now, this is really troublesome!" ”
Originally, the underground party organization had been lurking in Wuhan for many years, and there were still some connections at the upper level, but unfortunately the battle of Wuhan began, and those powerful officials fled to Chongqing and the southwest, and the forces in Wuhan were reshuffled.
On the contrary, Miao Yongyi had some energy in the police station because of the arrangement of the Military Command Bureau, and Uncle Quan also asked Miao Yongyi to find out the real reason why Pei Wenrui was arrested.
Miao Yongyi pondered for a moment and said: "I have also fished people for others before, you can give it a try, but Ma Yaowu is very greedy, and the Japanese are involved, and Ma Yaowu and I can't talk, we have to find someone to handle it, Uncle Quan, this requires a lot of money!" ”
