After sending Lao Hou away, Lao Wu lay in bed and suffered insomnia, and he thought about it for a long time before falling asleep.

Lao Hou gave Lao Wu a task and left, it was already deep. There were no pedestrians on the street for a long time, and he had to hurry towards Shamao Street.

As a result, when he was still a street away from Shamao Street, he was suddenly blocked by several people who came out of the darkness.

Lao Hou was shocked, and looked at the people who blocked his way, only to see that these people were wearing loose satin clothes, looking like traitors. Lao Hou asked calmly, "Who are you?" What's in my way? ”

One of these traitors, led by them, asked coldly: "We are from the Stone Town Branch of the Secret Service Headquarters, you are still wandering the streets so late, we are very interested in you, please come back with us." ”

Lao Hou pretended to be very angry and said, "You have to have some reason to arrest me, right?" Isn't it possible to walk on this street at night? I haven't heard of a curfew in Stone Town! Could it be that the new order issued by Taijun Murakami is for you to carry out? ”

The traitor spy led by the traitor couldn't help but be a little cautious when he heard Lao Hou's words, and directly brought out Murakami Shaosa, who was currently acting as the director of the Stone Town Branch of the Secret Service Headquarters. Although Section Chief Yin conveyed Murakami's order to let them conduct inspections in Stone Town every night in groups, he was afraid that he would catch the wrong person and cause an oolong incident, and he would suffer a dumb loss at that time.

So he put away the cold expression on his face just now, replaced it with another kind face and asked, "May I ask if Mr. knows Murakami Taijun?" Are you ......? ”

Lao Hou took out his certificate of good citizenship and handed it to the other party, and said confidently: "This is my identity document, you can check it." Yes, of course I know Takami Murakami, and I've been to his office in the Stone Town branch of your secret service headquarters several times. If you don't believe me, you can immediately find a phone booth and call him and let me explain to him why I am still walking on the street at night. As for whether Murakami Taijun will feel that you have disturbed his rest, and whether he will be dissatisfied with you, this is not my concern. What do you think? If you don't want to make this call, I can make this call myself. ”

Several traitor spies saw that Lao Hou was so swearing, and they were not afraid to talk directly to Murakami Taijun, some looked at each other, and some hesitated to make this phone call that would obviously disturb Taijun's rest.

The traitor spy led by Lao Hou saw that Lao Hou was so confident, so he naturally didn't dare to mess around, he opened Lao Hou's certificate of good citizenship and looked at the contents, and then returned the certificate of good citizenship to Lao Hou very respectfully, and explained: "Mr. Hou, I'm sorry, brother, I just acted on orders, so I was offended." But if you just let you go, in case Shangfeng blames him, my brother and I will be a little embarrassed. Let's see if you can call Brother Murakami Taijun in person to explain, it will not hurt everyone. ”

In fact, Lao Hou's strength made this traitor spy who led the class suspicious, but because of the task, he didn't dare to let Lao Hou go so easily, so he could only give up the opportunity to call Murakami Shinnosuke to Lao Hou.

Lao Hou took his certificate of good citizenship, glanced at the other party with disdain, walked straight to the public phone booth on the street, and started dialing directly. And the traitor spies of the Stone Town Branch of the Secret Service Headquarters followed closely behind Lao Hou, wondering which kind of immortal Lao Hou was.

Soon, the phone was connected, and Shinnosuke Murakami's voice came from inside.

Lao Hou deliberately loudly told the news that he was being arrested by the Stone Town Branch of the Secret Service Headquarters on the phone, and then explained: "I haven't returned to the tea shop so late, because there is a special task that must be handled as soon as possible, so there is such a misunderstanding." …… Well, yes, they're all on my side...... Okay, I'll ask the lead person to answer your call. ”

After speaking, Lao Hou handed the phone microphone to the traitor spy led by him, and said coldly: "Answer the phone, it's not that I don't know the rules, but Murakami Taijun must ask you to answer the phone, so you can do it yourself." ”

The traitor spy didn't want to answer this phone receiver like a hot potato, but since the other party directly found Murakami Shinnosuke, he could only take the phone receiver in order to confirm Lao Hou's words, and reported: "Is it Murakami Taijun?" I'm Xiao Zhou of the action team. …… Hi! According to your orders, of course, he can leave safely, and we will not embarrass him, please rest assured. No need to check this Mr. Hou, understand! ”

Seeing that the other party put down the phone after the call, Lao Hou said, "How is it?" I didn't mess around with tiger skins, did I? Now relieved? Do you need to go to your secret service headquarters in Stone Town for a night's sleep? ”

I saw that the traitor spy led by him explained with a smile: "I'm sorry Mr. Hou, I forgive the little one for not knowing Mount Tai, and I am offended." Please. ”

Only at this time did Lao Hou know that the Stone Town Branch of the Secret Service Headquarters had sent personnel to patrol at night under the strict orders of Shinnosuke Murakami to check for suspicious people. Since Shinnosuke Murakami has confirmed that he cannot be an anti-Japanese element, it is inevitable that the other party will be condescending. He didn't want to accuse the other party too much, just snorted lightly, raised his legs and continued to walk towards Shamao Street.

The night passed, and in the morning of the next day, Lao Houyou went out early and went directly to the Jianzhong Trading Company on Shuncheng Street to find Hu Yongqiang.

Hu Yongqiang was a little surprised by Lao Hou's sudden arrival, he let Lao Hou into the inner office, closed the door and was about to ask Lao Hou. I only heard Lao Hou say: "You don't have to be surprised, I came directly to the door, I have a task to explain to you, and you will convey it to Comrade Gao Hongcheng." ”

Hu Yongqiang didn't expect Lao Hou to know that Gao Hongcheng was his comrade, after all, Gao Hongcheng was his downline, and according to the principle of underground work, Lao Hou should not know Gao Hongcheng's true identity. But as soon as Lao Hou came, he directly said Gao Hongcheng's name, and he had to ask: "What task should be handed over to Comrade Gao Hongcheng?" ”

Lao Hou said very seriously: "Tomorrow at noon, the Japanese will make a move at the train station." Now the party organization needs to know what the Japanese are going to do at the railway station tomorrow, and only Comrade Gao Hongcheng has the opportunity to go to the checkpoint of the railway station to conduct reconnaissance without arousing suspicion, so you tell Comrade Gao Hongcheng that he will record everything that will happen at the railway station tomorrow, and then report to you, and I will meet you in the box on the second floor of the first pot of spring tea house the day after tomorrow to find out. This task is very important and must be accomplished by Comrade Gao Hongcheng. ”
