0565 Can't wait
When Feng Chen and Mo Sanqiang were discussing how to place the members of the action team, Zhao Shouyi also came back from outside.
"Teacher Zhao, you came back just in time, and I have something to discuss with you." Feng Chen got up and greeted Zhao Shouyi.
"I also have something to report to you, today I went to the Deren Bookstore on Lafeide Road, and found that on that street, there are a lot of unrelated miscellaneous people, I analyze, it may be that the spies of No. 76 are eyeing Wang Tianmu's military command in Shanghai." Zhao Shouyi came to Feng Chen and sat down and said.
"What I will discuss with you is this matter, tomorrow you and Sanqiang will find someone to move the Deren Bookstore to Hankou Road, and arrange it to the façade of our tunnel exit, and the bookstore will still be in charge of you, and let Sanqiang send you another team member to act as a buddy in the bookstore."
Feng Chen thought that tomorrow night, if he wanted to meet Chen Baohua in the bookstore, he had to rush before seven o'clock tomorrow night, and he must set up the Deren bookstore.
"What is that storefront on Saffy Road for?" Zhao Shouyi asked.
"The façade was converted into a pharmacy, and Sanqiang still arranged for a team member who understands Chinese medicine to act as the shopkeeper there, and the bookstore will be moved tomorrow, and after the move, the pharmacy will be opened." Feng Chen replied.
"Okay, then we'll do it early tomorrow morning." Zhao Shouyi agreed.
While the three of them were chatting, Zheng Shuyuan walked out of the telecommunications room with a telegram in her hand.
"Comrade Feng Chen, call from Yan'an."
"Read!"
"According to reliable information, Xu Zulong, the head of the Nanchang Station of the Military Command, carried a copy of the Japanese 11th Division's plan to attack Changsha, Hunan, and infiltrated Shanghai and disappeared.
Zheng Shuyuan finished reading the content of the telegram and handed the telegram to Feng Chen.
"Xu Zulong has been killed by agents of No. 76." Feng Chen took the telegram and said.
"Xu Zulong was killed? Who did this to you? Mo Sanqiang looked at Feng Chen in surprise and asked.
"A mysterious killer in No. 76 did it, according to eyewitnesses, after the killer killed Xu Zulong, he infiltrated the No. 76 headquarters and hid under the response of agent No. 76." Feng Chen replied.
"Didn't the Japanese army's plan to attack Changsha also fall into the hands of No. 76?" Mo Sanqiang asked.
"The plan may not have fallen into their hands yet, I am asking Chen Mo of the Shanghai Intelligence Group of the Military Command to find out, and there are already clues."
Feng Chen analyzed that Xu Zulong must have hidden the plan documents in Lin Huaibu's house.
"So what do we do?" Mo Sanqiang asked.
"Sanqiang, after moving the bookstore over tomorrow, you will personally take someone to secretly investigate, what is the origin of the mysterious killer who killed Xu Zulong on Nanjing Road, if possible, kill him!"
Feng Chen believes that the mysterious killer is a great threat to the underground organization in Shanghai.
"Okay, I'll arrange for someone to check tomorrow." Mo Sanqiang agreed.
"Then it's agreed that everyone will rest early."
After the matter was discussed, Feng Chen got up and walked towards his bedroom on the second floor.
Here at No. 23 Xingfu Lane, in addition to arranging rooms for several other comrades who knew about this location, Feng Chen also arranged a bedroom on the second floor to facilitate resting here.
……
At No. 7 Dongtiyu Road, Wang Jingwei, Zhou Fohai, Mei Siping, and Gao Zongwu were in a small conference room, discussing tomorrow's trip to Japan.
Kenji Dohihara has already contacted the Japanese cabinet and military department, and tomorrow morning, Kenji Dohihara will personally escort Wang Jingwei and his entourage to Tokyo, Japan, for negotiations.
In order to establish a new Nationalist Government as soon as possible, Wang Jingwei could not wait to decide to visit Japan and prepared to exchange views with Duke Fumima Konoe and Prime Minister Hiranuma.
These people gathered late at night, looking forward to going to Japan tomorrow, but also feeling deep anxiety.
"President Wang, since we arrived in Shanghai from Hanoi, I have noticed that the attitude of the Japanese people has changed greatly, and it seems that the formation of a new government will not go very smoothly." Zhou Fohai said worriedly.
"We must adhere to the principle, and in this negotiation, we must make the Japanese side make a commitment, and after the new government is formed, the Japanese side will withdraw its troops beyond the Great Wall within three years." Wang Jingwei is still dreaming of peace.
"The Japanese don't mention the withdrawal of troops at all now, I'm afraid they won't agree to this, besides, the promise to withdraw troops was proposed by Fumima Konoe when he was prime minister, but he has stepped down now." Mei Siping, who was sitting next to Zhou Fohai, said.
"If you don't agree to withdraw the troops, we won't talk to them!" Gao Zongwu's attitude was very clear.
"Alas, now we are in a dilemma!" Wang Jingwei sighed.
"Chairman Wang, we can only take one step at a time now, and we must make full use of the contradictions between the Japanese cabinet and the military department to achieve our goal." Zhou Fohai persuaded Wang Jingwei.
"That's all it can be." Wang Jingwei said helplessly.
"Chairman Wang should not have allowed the Japanese to come to Shanghai in the first place, but now that we live in the sphere of influence of the Japanese and are safe and protected by them, where can we still have the initiative?" Gao Zongwu was pessimistic.
"The new government that will be formed in the future will be as long as it is not like Manchukuo." Mei Siping said.
"Humph! Not like Manchukuo? I'm afraid that in the future it will not even be as good as Manchukuo. Gao Zongwu snorted coldly.
"Zongwu, don't be too pessimistic, after all, our China is rich in land and resources, and the Japanese are delicious and indigestible, in fact, they are also anxious for peace, and now the front is too long, and the materials in Japan are already scarce, and if they continue to fight, it will be very unfavorable to them, so I think there is still a talk about the withdrawal of troops."
Wang Jingwei cheered Gao Zongwu up, he was afraid that Gao Zongwu's pessimistic thoughts would affect everyone.
"Chairman Wang, it's not too early, let's rest early, and we will discuss some details on the ship tomorrow." Seeing that the discussion could not come to a reason, Zhou Fohai took out his pocket watch and looked at it, and persuaded Wang Jingwei to rest.
Several people got up with a heavy heart and left the conference room.
"Chairman Wang, I am afraid that I will stay for a while when I go to Japan this time, and I will want to go to my brother's house in the French Concession to say goodbye to him, and I will rush over early tomorrow morning." Gao Zongwu asked Wang Jingwei to say.
"Okay, then you go and say hello to the dog first, they don't agree, I'm afraid you won't be able to get out." Wang Jingwei waved his hand and said.
"What is the matter, we are not their prisoners, why restrict our freedom?!" Gao Zongwu lost his temper and took a step to leave.
When Gao Zongwu came to the gate, sure enough, two Japanese military policemen on duty, under the pretext of safety, stopped Gao Zongwu from going out, and Gao Zongwu argued with the two Japanese military policemen at the gate.
The noise alarmed the dog who was upstairs and had not yet slept, and he hurried downstairs to the gate.
"Mr. Gao, it's so late, where are you going? It's not very safe outside. "Inu Yangjian greeted Gao Zongwu politely, and the personal relationship between the two of them is still very good.
"Inu-kun, are you putting us under house arrest?" Gao Zongwu asked the dog very angrily.
"Where, where, we are mainly concerned about your safety, the activities of the military commanders in the concession have been rampant recently, I am afraid that you will ...... if you go out alone like this" Inu Yangjian reminded Gao Zongwu.
"You don't have to worry about this, you let them open the door." Gao Zongwu insisted on leaving.
"Okay, since Mr. Gao is leaving, I'll send you personally." Inu Yangjian was going to drive his own car and personally send Gao Zongwu to the French Concession.
"Inu-kun, thank you for your kindness, don't bother." Gao Zongwu rejected the kindness of the dog Yangjian.
"Open the door and let Mr. Gao out." Ken Inukai commanded two Japanese military policemen.
The door opened, and Gao Zongwu waved his hand with the dog Yangjian, turned around, and took a big stride, hurriedly disappearing into the night under the dim street lights.
Inu Yangjian stood outside the gate of No. 7 East Sports Road, looking at Gao Zongwu's distant back, thoughtful, until he couldn't see Gao Zongwu anymore, Inu Yangjian shook his head, turned around and walked back into the courtyard, and the two gendarmes closed the gate again.
Gao Zongwu turned a street, looked ahead, and found that not far ahead, a small black car was parked under a big tree on the side of the street, he glanced left and right, and hurriedly walked towards the car.
