Chapter Seventy-Two: The Calculations of the Parties

Shen Chen didn't want to make friends with Cao Bingsheng and become a brother in life and death. He is not opposed to being able to use each other in a principled manner.

"Arresting and killing the Zodiac thugs and ruining the Japanese people, although they are doing their duty, I think they will hate them to the bone and wait for an opportunity to retaliate, right?" Shen Chen turned his wine glass, and said lightly, as if he wasn't too worried, "If Mr. Cao can get some news and tell me, I am grateful." ”

"That's nature." Cao Bingsheng put down his wine glass and said: "Just because Mr. Shen dares to go against the Japanese, even if Mr. Shen doesn't make me a friend, if there is any news unfavorable to Mr. Shen, my brother will definitely tell each other and try his best to help." ”

Shen Chen corrected with a smile: "It's not that I'm going against the Japanese, but I'm worthy of the job of patrolling." Whoever dares to cause trouble and sabotage in the concession and commit it in my hands will be sorry. ”

After a pause, he raised his glass to Cao Bingsheng, "Thank you Brother Cao for your outspoken help, please drink this glass of wine, we will be friends in the future." ”

"Okay." Cao Bingsheng and Shen Chen clinked glasses, drank them all, and laughed heartily.

In fact, although the two have nominally become friends, they are still in the stage of observation and temptation. Shen Chen did not admit to being against the Japanese, and Cao Bingsheng did not reveal his true identity.

Of course, this banquet did bring the relationship between the two closer, and the contact information was also determined. After a long time, how to develop can only be tested by time.

…………

The night is getting darker.

Just when Shen Chen and Cao Bingsheng were brothers, drunk vigorously and spoke affectionately, in a house in the concession, the three of them got together and talked about Shen Chen.

The head of the Shanghai District, codenamed "Eagle Head", squinted his eyes, looked at the person in charge of the first action team, and said in a deep voice: "If it weren't for the patrol surnamed Shen to stop the Japanese today, I'm afraid you would all be more than lucky." ”

"yes!" Li Yan grinned and said with some fear: "I didn't expect the Japanese to play tricks, because the address was wrong, although I received a notice, I didn't expect it to be aimed at us, so I didn't transfer." ”

"This is our rerelution." Chen Mo admitted: "I am willing to accept the punishment." ”

The eagle head waved his hand and said, "This is not a dereliction of duty, and there is no need to punish it." The key is to find out how the Japanese obtained the information and what went wrong. If a traitor appears, the consequences can be severe. ”

Li Yan and Chen Mo are really not to blame for this incident, the Japanese want to enter the concession to arrest people, who knows who they are going to arrest, do all the personnel have to be transferred?

And this is precisely the reason why the Japanese dare to use intrigues and tricks, and the opponent cannot be prepared in advance. Unless more accurate information is known, the Japanese have apparently realized that there is a tip-off from the patrol room, and there will definitely be countermeasures and changes.

Li Yan and Chen Mingzhen thought for a while, exchanged opinions, and reported to the eagle head: "It is unlikely that there will be traitors within the action team, but it is the inside line of the patrol room, which is suspicious. I think the last time we met him, he was a little out of the ordinary. ”

Eagle Head frowned and said, "This time it was a trick played by the Japanese, and it would be nothing if he didn't report the news." Of course, if you have suspicions, you need to be more cautious and find out what went wrong. ”

"Yes, my subordinates understand." Li also knows that evidence is needed, but suspicion is not enough.

"And this patrol named Shen Xiaochen." The eagle head said thoughtfully, "Be careful. He dared to draw a gun against the Japanese, and he might be able to win it over and do things for us. ”

Chen Mo hesitated for a moment and said, "But his level is too low, and his use value is not much!" ”

"Don't just look at the present, take a long-term view." "I have found some information about him, a few months ago he was the lowest-level patrolman, but now he is an agent, and he is deeply favored and valued by the British inspector. ”

Chen Mo nodded and said, "So that's the case, that subordinate understands." ”

Eagle Head touched his chin and continued: "There is also the matter of that mysterious master, and I can't relax my investigation. It would be great if it could be used by the organization. ”

"It's a pity that there is not a single clue." Li Yan smiled bitterly and said: "The Japanese are also at a loss, we don't dare to make a big show, and it will be very difficult to investigate secretly." ”

"Be careful, it's not for you to delay your work." The eagle head groaned for a while, and felt that it was not easy to find clues, so he put the matter aside and arranged for the operation to eliminate the traitor.

……………

The night is getting darker.

In the tavern not far from Shen Chen's house, Zhou Qiao was drinking and talking with a man.

If Shen Chen was here, he would definitely be surprised. Because this man is none other than his subordinate, the patrol named Lu Huazhong.

"No matter which force it is, it's always anti-Japanese people." Lu Huazhong took a sip of wine and said slowly: "Shen Xiaochen broke the Japanese tricks, and it can be regarded as protecting the anti-Japanese forces. ”

Zhou Qiao nodded and said, "That's true." Since it's his claim, you're not in danger of being exposed, and that's good. ”

Lu Huazhong smiled and said, "I really didn't expect Shen Xiaochen's mind to be so careful and bold. Dare to have a hard top with the Japanese, almost the result of random gunfire and blood flowing. Well, it's a man. ”

Zhou Qiao looked at Lu Huazhong and said slowly: "We have almost no internal response in the patrol room, if you can get in, you have to take a long-term view and try not to attract attention." ”

After a pause, Zhou Qiao continued: "Shen Xiaochen doesn't seem to have a good impression of the Japanese, or he wants to show it in order to climb up. Of course, no matter what the reason, as long as what he does is beneficial to Japan, you can give some help if you can. ”

"He's very shrewd." Zhou Qiao reminded again: "Don't treat him as a reckless person. ”

Lu Huazhong nodded and said, "Judging from today's events, he did react quickly and was very careful. ”

Zhou Qiao took a sip of rice wine and said, "According to the information we got from the inside, the headquarters of the Zodiac Society in the New Asia Hotel was attacked by unknown experts, and more than a dozen people, including Chang Yuqing and Japanese advisers, were killed. The Japanese blocked the news, but the search did not seem to have made much progress. ”

Lu Huazhong was taken aback, but then said happily: "Chang Yuqing, this traitor, has been killed?" It's really exciting, I said how the Zodiac guys have stopped recently! ”

"Sooner or later, the Japanese will take revenge." Zhou Qiao smiled, obviously very excited, and said with a straight face: "In the next stage, the organization will hold charity sales and donations and other activities to raise military supplies for the soldiers of the Anti-Japanese War." In order to prevent sabotage, you need to do some work with your current identity. ”
