At this time, in Tang Chongxin's office, Tang Chongxin was holding his forehead with his forehand, pacing back and forth, Kang Junru's life and death were unpredictable, and those account books, the list was still a mystery, and the identification of Kang Junru's true identity had also fallen into a bottleneck. “

"Alas, Kang Junru, Kang Junru, I'm really helpless against you, helpless." Tang Chongxin sighed heavily.

At this moment, the guard walked in with a letter in his hand: "Report to the commander, there is someone outside who asked me to hand over this letter to you." “

Tang Chongxin hurriedly opened the letter, looked at it, and hurriedly said to the guards: "Please." ”

Song Zeyan was the secretary of Minister Zhou, the powerful figure in the Nanjing government that was being prepared, and since the Japanese side intended to support the Nanjing puppet government, it went around recruiting all kinds of social talents, or directly recruiting officials of all sizes in the Chongqing government, in order to compete with the Chongqing government.

The Songhu Garrison Command received a notice of the westward withdrawal of the army shortly after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Tang Chongxin was worried about the westward retreat, first, after the headquarters withdrew westward, the personnel will be greatly adjusted, and it is really hard to say whether he can keep this position at that time; Second, his family members are all in Shanghai and Nanjing, especially the eighty-year-old mother, who is even more difficult to leave her homeland, saying that even if she dies, she will die in her own family and be buried in the ancestral grave, and Tang Chongxin is a filial son, and he does not want to leave his old mother alone in his hometown in Nanjing, so he has been in a dilemma about this matter.

Just as he was hesitating, the minister Zhou extended an olive branch to him, saying that he had reserved a position in the Nanjing government, both in terms of official position and salary higher than now, and offered to take care of his old mother in Nanjing for him "in good faith."

Tang Chongxin knew that Minister Zhou wanted to use his old mother as a hostage to blackmail him, and at the same time used high-ranking officials to entrap him, and after weighing it again, he promised Minister Zhou that when the Songhu Garrison Headquarters withdrew westward, he would lead some officials to surrender to the Nanjing government, and Secretary Song became the liaison between him and Minister Zhou.

At this time, Song Zeyan, who was dressed in a long robe and a top hat, quietly followed behind the guards, and before entering Tang Chongxin's office, he deliberately lowered the brim of his hat, looked around for a while, and made sure that there was no one around, so he quickly flashed into Tang Chongxin's office.

After entering Tang Chongxin's office, Song Zeyan took off his top hat, Tang Chongxin hurriedly stepped forward to greet him, held Song Zeyan's hand with both hands, and asked softly, "Brother Zeyan, why are you here today?" Didn't you say that you and I meet every Saturday at the Yuxi Tea Room? Do you know that if you come to my headquarters so rashly, if others know that I have an unclear relationship with you, then I will go to court-martial. ”

"If it weren't for Minister Zhou's order, I would have to come to you and meet you, I wouldn't have taken this risk to hang out at your headquarters!" Song Zeyan shrugged helplessly.

"Oh? So, you're coming to me today to have something important to look for me? ”

"Yes, I won't say more nonsense, let me ask you, is Kang Junru in your hands now?" Song Zeyan asked straight to the point.

"You're looking for him?" Tang Chongxin was a little puzzled.

"Yes, this is the person named by Minister Zhou, the newspaper said that he had a car accident, I immediately went to the hospital to investigate, the doctor refused to say at first, after I revealed my identity, he told me that in fact, Kang Junru only suffered a little skin injury, not in the way, has been picked up by you. But the newspaper said that he was seriously injured and his life and death were unpredictable, I guess this must be your brother Tang's handiwork! He should still be in your hands now, right? ”

Tang Chongxin knew that he couldn't hide it from Song Zeyan, so he nodded: "Don't hide it, Brother Zeyan, this person is indeed in my hands now, and we have been paying attention to him for a long time." This person has a very deep background, and I am afraid of causing unnecessary trouble, so I published this news in the newspaper, so that those bigwigs will not call me every day and ask for someone. What's the matter, Minister Zhou asked Kang Junru by name? ”

"Yes, he is a rare business wizard, I have approached him before, but this person seems to have no interest in officialdom, so he has to give up, but now that he is in trouble, he may change his original mind. Minister Zhou is really eager for this Kang Junru, saying that if he can work for the Nanjing government, it will make the Chongqing government economically sluggish. Song Zeyan confessed to Tang Chongxin the importance of Kang Junru to the Nanjing government.

Tang Chongxin frowned: "Brother Zeyan, in fact, we have been paying attention to this Kang Junru for a long time, and we suspect that he is likely to be the person in charge of the Shanghai underground party organization of the Communist Party of China. ”

"Oh? Are you sure? Is there any evidence? When Song Zeyan heard this, a vigilant look flashed in his eyes.

Tang Chongxin shook his head: "There is no ironclad evidence yet, and the evidence we found has been refuted by him one by one, so we haven't got very strong evidence so far." ”

"Since there is no evidence, it is just a suspicion, what about you, all the grass and trees, it seems that everyone is suspected of the Communist Party, this has become your occupational disease, alas, it really responds to a saying in the market: who in the world does not understand the Communist Party, in fact, what if it is a real Communist Party? Minister Zhou used to be one of the founders and early leaders of the Communist Party, but later, he did not break away from the Communist Party and became a close confidant of Lao Chiang, but now he has become a minister of the Nanjing government. "Song Zeyan doesn't care too much about Kang Junru's identity, whether it's Chongqing or Yan'an, as long as it can be used by me, it doesn't matter which political party or faction he is, the hero doesn't ask where he comes from.

"That's just as well." Kang Junru sneered: "Indeed, this Kang Junru still has a very unique vision in finance and business. ”

For Kang Junru to be an economic talent, Tang Chongxin does not deny this.

"Where is he now? Or I'll talk to him right now. Song Zeyan couldn't wait to meet Kang Junru.

"This, Brother Zeyan, it's really unfortunate that you're here." Tang Chongxin looked embarrassed: "I'll tell you the truth, he just came out of the torture room not long ago, and he may not have woken up yet!" ”

"You mean, you tortured him?" When Song Zeyan heard this, he looked at Tang Chongxin in astonishment.

"I didn't know in advance that he was the person named by Minister Zhou, if I knew, I would definitely take care of the people below to show mercy to his subordinates." Tang Chongxin spread his hands and looked at Song Zeyan helplessly.

"Alas, Commander Tang, you...... You're really, okay, no more nonsense, you can take me to see him. Song Zeyan cast a dissatisfied look at Tang Chongxin.

"Okay, he's in the infirmary right now, I'll take you to see him now!" Tang Chongxin nodded again and again.

Tang Chongxin personally took Song Zeyan to the infirmary to visit Kang Junru.

Shangguan Qian saw Tang Chongxin walk into the infirmary with a stranger, and he was a little strange.

"Doctor Shangguan, how is Kang Junru doing now?" Tang Chongxin asked.

"Oh, Commander Tang, he's still unconscious!"

"Is his life in danger?" Song Zeyan hurriedly asked.
