"Shopkeeper, is there a snow lotus?" At nine o'clock in the evening, Feng Chen appeared on time at Yikang Pharmacy on Luban Road. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"I'm sorry! The snow lotus is gone, and we still have Ganoderma lucidum here. About thirty years old, the shopkeeper of the pharmacy with a pair of myopic glasses raised his head and looked Feng Chen up and down with a pair of sharp eyes behind the lenses and replied.

"Could you please take a look at the Chinese medicine on my recipe, do you have them in the pharmacy?" Feng Chen took out the prescription and handed it to the shopkeeper.

After taking the prescription, the shopkeeper looked at it carefully, raised his head and said, "Please come with me to the back to get it." ”

Passing through the patio in the backyard of the pharmacy, in front of the door of a side room, the shopkeeper stopped and said: "Comrade Feng Chen, Chief Wu Hao is already waiting for you inside, you go in, I'll go to the front to guard." ”

Pushing open the door and stepping into the room, Wu Hao, the No. 1 chief, was sitting in front of the square table, smiling, looking at Feng Chen with a warm gaze, Feng Chen turned around and closed the door gently, only then did he press his excitement and stepped forward and said, "Hello chief!" I'm Feng Chen. ”

"Comrade Feng Chen, please sit down and speak." Wu Hao got up, stretched out his right hand and shook Feng Chen's hand tightly.

Feng Chen sat down on the stool next to Wu Hao, calmed down his mood, and looked at the gentle and elegant chief in front of him, who he had admired for a long time, Feng Chen was excited and respectful, and quietly waited for the order.

"Comrade Feng Chen, I know all about your situation, and I have a special top-secret task entrusted to you when I see you alone today." Wu Hao paused when he said this, and looked at Feng Chen with a blazing gaze.

"Please rest assured, chief, I promise to complete the task!" Feng Chen straightened his chest and said.

Wu Hao nodded, his expression was serious, his wise and profound eyes stared at Feng Chen fixedly, and then said: "This task is very arduous, it is a long-term task, you must be fully mentally prepared!" ”

"I will, Chief!" Feng Chen replied as he looked at Wu Hao with a firm gaze.

"As you know, this year has been an eventful year for our party, since Gu Shunzhang's defection in April, the party's intelligence organization in Shanghai has been completely destroyed, and most of the organs have been transferred to the Central Soviet District, and I will also leave Shanghai for the Central Soviet Region in the near future."

"The chief is leaving?" Feng Chen looked at Wu Hao in surprise and asked.

"Yes, after I leave, our party's intelligence network in Shanghai cannot be broken, but can only be strengthened, and your task is to serve as an independent intelligence point and directly collect all kinds of major strategic intelligence for the party Central Committee." Wu Hao looked at Feng Chen and gave the task.

"Then Comrade An Zhida's line is still used?"

"Yes! In addition to the normal use of Comrade Zhida's line, you can directly contact the central authorities for particularly important information, your call code is "cuttlefish", and the central call code is "Dahai", which is a special communication line that only I have in my hands, and should not be easily activated under normal circumstances. Wu Hao instructed.

"What if I don't have a radio station at the moment?" Feng Chen asked.

"At present, when you need to make emergency contact, you can use the radio station of the Soviet Far East Intelligence Bureau, which is the code word when you contact Sorge, the head of the Soviet Far East Intelligence Service in Shanghai, please keep it in mind." As he spoke, Wu Hao took out a note from his jacket pocket and handed it to Feng Chen.

Feng Chen took the note, looked at it repeatedly, kept it in mind, and then crumpled it into a paper ball, stuffed it into his mouth and swallowed it into his stomach.

"After I arrive in the Central Soviet District, I will send you a right-hand man as soon as possible to assist you, and your most important job at present is to find a way to break into the Central Investigation Department of the Kuomintang as soon as possible, gain their trust, and at the same time protect yourself."

"Then what is my relationship with Sorge of the Soviet Far Eastern Intelligence Service?"

"Equal relationship, not subordinate to each other! The code word given to you can be connected at any time, only the members of Sorge's Ramza intelligence team in the Far Eastern Intelligence Agency know this joint codeword, if Sorge has an accident, the code word will be invalidated immediately. ”

"Chief, the Consul General of the Japanese Consulate in Shanghai, Ruichi Hiraoka, is my teacher, how should I use this relationship? Yesterday, he invited me to connect him with colleagues in Shanghai's cultural circles, but I didn't agree to him. ”

"Let me tell you two words, Comrade Feng Chen, fighting on the hidden front, full of crises everywhere, you must first learn to protect yourself, only by living well, can you better work for the party and better fight the enemy! When encountering danger, you must always keep in mind that the interests of the party are above all else! ”

"Chief, I see!"

"Comrade Cuttlefish, our conversation today is an absolute secret, I hope you will do your job brilliantly! When you return to the sea, I will personally celebrate you. Wu Hao got up and shook Feng Chen's hands tightly again.

Leaving Yikang Pharmacy, Feng Chen did not go home, left Luban Road, and walked along Xiafei Road towards the Huangpu River.

At night, by the Huangpu River, the autumn breeze blows on the face, with a hint of coolness.

Not far away, on the lock stone of the main entrance of the three arched doors of the HSBC building, the heads of the three gods symbolizing wealth, wisdom and luck seem to be looking down on the passers-by by the Huangpu River under the light of neon lights flashing brightly and darkly.

Feng Chen sat down on a bench by the river, looking at the boats shuttling on the Huangpu River at night, thinking about the code name given to him by Comrade Wu Hao, the No. 1 leader.

"Cuttlefish!"

In the vast East China Sea, there is such a creature, it swims like a fish, but it does not belong to fish, people are used to call it "cuttlefish", more people call it "squid".

Legend has it that after Qin Shi Huang unified the six kingdoms, he toured south to the seashore and was fascinated by the beauty of the Yellow Sea.

For a long time, the bag is moistened by the sea, gets the essence of heaven and earth, becomes a little elf, haunts in the sea, encounters a strong enemy, and spews out "ink" from the ink sac, creating a barrier, confusing the enemy, and then taking the opportunity to escape, acting as fast as a thief, so the descendants also call the cuttlefish "squid".

It seems that Comrade Wu Hao hopes that he can become an elf on the hidden front like a cuttlefish in the sea!

Will you be able to accomplish this difficult task on your own?!

"Smack! Syllable! Syllable! ”

The piercing sound of gunfire came from the direction of Xia Fei Road, Feng Chen woke up from his contemplation, came back to his senses, immediately stood up from the bench, turned around and looked towards the place where the gun rang out, only to see three people carrying pistols and running quickly towards the river.

The three of them jumped and ran past Feng Chen, and immediately disappeared into the darkness in the direction of the Huangpu River wharf.

Faintly, Feng Chen relied on his intuition to feel that one of the three people who ran past seemed to be the shopkeeper of Yikang Pharmacy.

"It's not good, Yikang Pharmacy may be exposed!" In an instant, Feng Chen broke out in a cold sweat and walked towards Xia Fei Road quickly.

"Stop! What for? ”

Seven or eight black-clothed people rushed from the direction of Xia Fei Road, each carrying a pistol in their hands, and the first one was a short man with a capable appearance, pointing the gun in his hand at Feng Chen and asked.

Feng Chen stopped and looked at the man, his heart shocked.

"Gu Shunzhang! Isn't this traitor in Nanjing? How did you get to Shanghai? Feng Chen had a series of questions in his heart, mixed with worries about Comrade Wu Hao.

"Did you see the three people who just ran past? In what direction did they flee? Gu Shunzhang pointed at Feng Chen with the gun in his hand, looked Feng Chen up and down with a sly gaze and asked.

"Chief Gu, Chief Gu, listen to me." Liu Shaokui, the chief inspector of the patrol room detective unit, followed by several patrolmen, ran to Gu Shunzhang in a panic, widened his eyes, looked at Feng Chen who was standing opposite, and then whispered something in Gu Shunzhang's ear.

"What? And what about the Japanese?! Gu Shunzhang squinted at Feng Chen, who had a calm face, and said loudly.

"Mr. Feng, aren't you at the Great Japanese Consulate, why are you here?" Liu Shaokui took two steps in front of Feng Chen and asked.

"Do you know Chief Gu? The man of the year in Shanghai, Chief Gu is now flying Huang Tengda, and he almost caught a big fish today, but it's a pity! Pity! Without waiting for Feng Chen to answer, Liu Shaokui chattered endlessly with a flattering tone to Gu Shunzhang.

"Less nonsense! Get out of the way, I'm going to take this guy back and interrogate him. Gu Shunzhang stepped forward and pushed Liu Shaokui aside with his hand holding the gun.

Listening to Liu Shaokui's words, Feng Chen's heart was much calmer, it seemed that after he left Yikang Pharmacy, Comrade Wu Hao had been safely transferred.
