Chapter 103: A Trip to Chongqing
Coming out of Lao Chen, Yulin and Shuxian hurried home. As soon as I entered the door, the phone rang, it was Lao Chen's phone.
"Yulin, I have already reported the situation you said to my superiors, and they agreed to let you go to Chongqing, but be cautious and don't expose yourself."
"Well, I understand." Yu Lin was glad that his superiors had approved his plan.
As soon as he hung up the phone, Du Xueqian downstairs came up.
"Brother, I just received a call from my cousin, Yi asked me to go to Chongqing the day after tomorrow, should you go? If you go to uh gossip, I'll help Nong buy a train ticket. ”
"Okay, you can buy one for me." Yu Lin took a bite to take it down.
"Aren't you going?" Du Xueqian glanced at Shuxian.
"She can't leave here, so I'll go with you." Yu Lin hurriedly shirked for Shuxian.
"Okay, yes, I'll go buy a train ticket now."
Yu Lin took out a stack of money from his pocket and handed it to Du Xueqian: "Hey, Brother Du, this is the money for the train ticket." ”
"Oh, I still have a train ticket, uh, uh, I'm in for a treat, don't pay for it."
"That's embarrassing. My brother is settling accounts. Yu Lin stuffed the money into Du Xueqian's hand.
"Well, I'll be invited on the next trip. Don't mess with it, put the bills away, put them away. Du Xueqian held down Yu Lin's hand, and Yu Lin was so enthusiastic that he had to rely on Du Xueqian.
Yu Lin asked the editor-in-chief Han for a week's vacation, saying that an elder in his hometown had passed away and was going to the funeral, and the editor-in-chief Han agreed.
On the afternoon of the third day, Du Xueqian and Lu Yulin took suitcases and boarded the train to Chongqing. Lu Yulin reminded Du Xueqian not to tell his cousin his real name, after all, he is still in the period of debt avoidance, and the more one person who knows, the more trouble he will have. Du Xueqian also understood Lu Yulin's distress and agreed.
After two days and two nights of driving, we finally arrived at Chongqing Railway Station.
Du Xueqian took Lu Yulin to the Anti-Smoking Supervision Office under the Kuomintang Military Committee and met Du Xueqian's cousin Meng Ruoyu.
"Cousin, I brought someone with me this time. This is Ouyang Rui, my classmate when I was a student at the Whampoa Military Academy. ”
"Hello, Director Meng." Lu Yulin stretched out his hand and shook hands with Meng Ruoyu.
"Hello, may I ask where Brother Ouyang is?"
"I work as a reporter at the Declaration."
"Oh, okay, okay. The pioneer of public opinion, Brother Ouyang came all the way from Shanghai to Chongqing this time......"
"I heard that Tan Jingting is now in this department, and I am an old classmate with him, so I want to meet him."
"My yamen can no longer tolerate Commissioner Tan, and he is now my immediate boss. However, Brother Ouyang, it's unfortunate that you came, Commissioner Tan went to Luochuan for a meeting yesterday. It is estimated that it will be several days before I return. ”
"He went to Luochuan? That's a misfortune. Yulin was a little disappointed, he came all the way to Chongqing, but the result was that the building was empty.
"Or, you stay here for a few days first, maybe Commissioner Tan can come back early, you said that Hu Zongnan wants to suppress the Communist Party, what kind of meeting will he hold there as an anti-smoking inspector, do you say yes? Really, wherever the team goes, he goes. Meng Ruoyu's tone was obviously emotional.
"I didn't expect our Brother Tan to have a very sensitive sense of smell, and wherever there is a copper smell, he will drill wherever he goes." Du Xueqian also ridiculed Tan Jingting on the side.
When Lu Yulin heard the news, he was surprised, Hu Zongnan wanted to gather troops and attack Yan'an, which meant that the Party Central Committee was facing the danger of being encircled and suppressed. He had to quickly implement the news and report it to Lao Chen.
"Okay, thank you, Director Meng."
"You're welcome, you are Xueqian's classmate, and you can be regarded as my little brother, if there is anything, just look for me, so be it, Xueqian, you first arrange Brother Ouyang in the guest house next to you."
"Okay, come on, brother, come with me." Du Xueqian waved his hand to Lu Yulin, and Lu Yulin followed Du Xueqian out.
Coming out of Meng Ruoyu's office, walking to the end of the corridor is Tan Jingting's office, next to the office is the stairs, going downstairs and turning right is the guest house, Du Xueqian led Lu Yulin to a single room, which has a bed, a writing desk, and a chair. The furnishings are relatively simple.
"Brother Du, don't you live here?"
"I'm going to live at my cousin's house, uh, the conditions here seem to be a little worse." Du Xueqian looked around, the furniture and furnishings in the room were relatively shabby, and he was a little embarrassed.
"It doesn't matter, as long as I can live, I don't pay attention to it. Brother Du, could you please talk to your cousin at night and see if I can do it with you? ”
"Okay, I'll have to tell my cousin."
"Please."
"A gossip, what a Alaming meeting."
After Lu Yulin waited for Du Xueqian to leave, he walked around the guest house, he looked up at Tan Jingting's office, and wanted to go in to see if there was any information he wanted to know.
After six o'clock, the iron door to the second floor was locked. It seems that it is not possible to pry the door from the stairs, Lu Yulin walked outside again, looked up at the second floor, the window of Tan Jingting's office was hidden, and it seemed that going through the window was the only feasible way.
Lu Yulin checked the location of the electric switch again, it was at the end of the corridor, as long as the electric switch was closed at night, he could climb from the ground floor along the water pipe to the second floor, and then enter through the window.
With his mind decided, Lu Yulin quietly waited for the moment when it was dark, and he found a flashlight from the drawer of his desk.
After twelve o'clock, there was a deathly silence around, Lu Yulin quietly got up from the bed, ran to the end of the corridor, opened the meter box, and pulled the electric switch. Then he climbed up to the second floor along the water pipe by moonlight, turned into Tan Jingting's office from the windowsill, and then turned on the flashlight, looked at the surrounding environment, there was a large desk in the east, he walked over, opened the drawer next to him, there were a lot of letters in it, Lu Yulin searched carefully one by one, and finally saw a letter with the words of the Xi'an Pacification Office, so he opened it and took a closer look, sure enough, Hu Zongnan was going to hold a ** military meeting in Luochuan, intending to mobilize the six main divisions to deal with the Japanese invading army, In addition, hundreds of thousands of troops who originally blockaded the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo border area prepared to attack Yan'an along Yichuan, Luochuan, Yijun and other places.
Lu Yulin memorized the content of the letter, and then put the letter in the drawer, he pulled the middle drawer again, the drawer was locked, Lu Yulin took out a piece of wire from his pocket and played with it in the keyhole, after a while, the drawer opened, Lu Yulin opened the drawer, there was an account book inside, and some transactions were written on it, Lu Yulin saw opium, rice, guns and other words, and there were some names and some numbers behind him, he felt a little cold in his heart, Tan Jingting was really doing some shady things.
Lu Yulin closed the account book, put it in, and found that there was a photo inside, he took it out and looked at it, it turned out to be a group photo of him and Tan Jingting at the door of the Central Army Military Academy in Nanjing. He looked at Tan Jingting, who was in high spirits at that time, and then looked at the account book, feeling panicked in his heart.
Lu Yulin put away the photos and account books, locked the drawers, and then glanced at the office, and felt that there was nothing left, so he climbed down from the window and walked into his room in the guest house as if nothing had happened.
"How do you get the message across to the organization?" Lu Yulin thought of the telephone bureau, and he immediately walked out of the room and walked in the direction of the telephone bureau.
When he arrived at the telephone office, Lu Yulin walked into the phone booth and dialed his home phone number: 7299.
The phone rang, waking Shuxian from her sleep, and she immediately picked up the phone, and it was Yulin's voice coming from inside.
"Shuxian? I'm Yulin. Now take a pen and paper and write down what I said. ”
"Okay, you can wait a minute."
Shuxian took the pen and paper and picked up the phone again: "Yulin, you can say it." ”
Tan went to Luochuan to hold a meeting to suppress the Communist Party, and Hu mobilized six divisions and the original hundreds of thousands of troops, and was about to attack Yan'an along Yichuan, Luochuan, Yijun and other places. You tell Lao Chen this information early tomorrow morning. I'm planning to come back soon. ”
"Okay, I made a note of that. You call now and no one will find you. ”
"No, I'm safe. Shuxian, Brother Tan has really fallen. Yulin told Shuxian this fact with a heavy heart.
"Yulin, let's talk about it when we come back."
Early the next morning, Shuxian went to Yipinzhai, Yipinzhai had not opened yet, Shuxian was strolling around, less than seven o'clock, the fat aunt came out to open the door, Shuxian hurriedly walked over.
"Fat aunt." Shuxian screamed softly.
"It's a young grandmother." The fat aunt was delighted to see Shuxian.
"Fat aunt, don't call me a young grandmother. Are you used to living here? ”
"Okay, Boss Chen treats me and Tiger Boy very well, but now Tiger Boy is not by my side, I miss him a lot. This kid never left me. ”
"Tiger Boy is very good with me, he is very smart, he follows Yulin to learn photography, and he will learn it as soon as he learns. You can rest assured. ”
"Rest assured, rest assured, I am a hundred at ease with you. Young grandma, if you want to eat, I'll make it for you. ”
"No need, fat aunt, I'm here to find Boss Chen, when does he usually come to Yipinzhai?"
"Come on, maybe ten minutes or so. Boss Chen always arrives at the hotel very early, sometimes he cleans the dust and dusts, wipes the floor and wipes the table, there is no boss at all, he is very kind, he is a good person. Young grandma, come in and sit. ”
"Hmm."
Shuxian walked into the store, and not long after, Chen Xuguang came over on a bicycle.
"Boss Chen, you're here, I'm looking for you for something."
Chen Xuguang saw Shuxian appear in his store early in the morning, and knew that there was a situation, so he hurriedly greeted: "Mrs. Ouyang, you are here so early, go, go upstairs and say." ”
Lao Chen took Shuxian to the secret room, and Shuxian relayed to Lao Chen the information that Yulin told her on the phone yesterday.
"Lao Chen, this is the content of intelligence." Shuxian handed the note she had recorded yesterday to Lao Chen.
Lao Chen opened it and felt that the information was very important, so he took out a radio station from the cabinet.
"I'll send a report to northern Jiangsu and ask them to notify the central government."
Soon, the telegram was sent.
"Shuxian, is Yulin still in Chongqing?"
"He said he planned to come back soon, but Tan Jingting didn't meet him, and I don't think he has the heart to stay in Chongqing."
"Although Tan Jingting didn't meet it, he has such important information, and the trip to Chongqing is still very worthwhile."
"Then Lao Chen, I went to Aurora first, the reading club has just been established, and the enthusiasm of the students is very high, and there are still many students who want to participate."
"Shuxian, your work is very effective, but you should be cautious, the number of people should not be too many at once, especially those students who have not been inspected by you, don't develop them first, and then develop slowly when the time is ripe."
"I see. That old Chen, I'll go first. ”
