On the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, Zhou Lin and Xiaolin came to the banquet building.

The banquet building has been surrounded by people from the detective department, and the Taiwanese have been trapped in the restaurant and have not arrested him, but the situation scared him to death.

Zhou Lin saw Zhou Chang, but he didn't expect that Zhou Chang would personally lead the team.

The two nodded and did not speak, as if they were not very familiar.

This is the time for a mission, not a time for brothers to chatter.

According to the plan, Zhou Lin came to Room 5 on the third floor, where the Taiwanese were located.

After stabilizing his mood, Zhou Lin knocked on the door gently.

The door opened, and a bald man, thirty-seven or eighteen years old, stood out.

"Who are you looking for?" He was wary. But the look on his face betrayed his nervousness.

"Looking for you!" Zhou Lin pushed open the door vigorously, pushed the Taiwanese away, and walked into the house.

"I know you! Zhou Lin! The man exclaimed, and his hand reached into his bosom.

"Don't move!" Zhou Lin's gun was already aimed at him.

The man stopped his hand, and his face became anxious: "The mountains don't turn around, the water doesn't turn around, the people don't turn, brother, please raise your hand and let me go!" ”

Zhou Lin asked the man to take out the gun and throw it on the ground, and kicked it in front of Zhou Lin with his foot.

"What kind of price do you offer for me to protect you?" Zhou Lin sat down and asked.

The man was overjoyed, felt the hope of life, and hurriedly said: "Section Chief Zhou, I will produce ten small yellow croakers, please let me go." ”

Zhou Lin shook his head and stretched out two fingers, which meant twenty small yellow fish.

When the man heard this, he was finally saved, what is the money? Money is a bastard, as long as people are there, money can be earned. If the people are gone, then there is nothing.

"I'll do it!" So saying, the man went to fetch the little suitcase on the bed.

Zhou Lin smoked a cigarette: "The business has failed, can you go back and pay the errand?" ”

"The newspapers have reported that the responsibility is not on me, and I will suffer at most when I go back, and I will not worry about my life." The man said honestly.

"What's in it for you if you end up bringing the goods back?"

"There must be big awards, promotions...... What did you say? The man said with wide eyes.

Zhou Lin threw the cigarette butt into the ashtray: "I don't say my words twice, forget it if I don't hear it." ”

"Hear me! Heard it! If I can close this business, in addition to the payment, I will honor you ten little yellow croakers, not including the twenty that I saved just now. The man said softly.

Zhou Lin raised his voice: "Okay!" I agree to your request, give me ten small yellow croaker, and I will go and intercede with the chief of the agency and sell you the goods. Selling to anyone is selling, and selling you is not the same. ”

That person is a wrench, how can it be ten small yellow croakers? Then he realized and said loudly: "Okay! Section Chief Zhou, these are ten small yellow croakers, please smile. ”

The man said that there were ten small yellow croakers in his mouth, but he took out thirty small yellow croakers.

Zhou Lin quickly put twenty small yellow croakers into his waist and tied them, and the other ten small yellow croakers were in his hands, walked to the door, opened the door, and said to Xiao Lin, who was eavesdropping outside the door: "Xiao Lin Jun, it has been negotiated, I promised to let him go, and we will sell him the goods he wants, and the price is still the original price." You collect the money and open the line, and I take him to the dock to pick up the goods and send him away. ”

But what made Zhou Lin strange was that Xiao Lin didn't reply, his eyes were staring at the little yellow croaker in Zhou Lin's hand: "Then what's going on?" ”

Zhou Lin pointed to the watch he had just taken off and put on the coffee table and said: "He took a fancy to my antique watch and offered to give ten small yellow croakers to buy my watch. ”

When Xiao Lin heard this, he hurriedly ran to the coffee table, picked up Zhou Lin's watch on it and threw it to Zhou Lin, then took off his watch and threw his watch on the coffee table: "My watch is more antique than yours, your watch." It's still too new, you keep it, and my watch is sold to him. ”

"Is that okay?" Zhou Lin looked very reluctant and handed ten small yellow croakers to the small forestry department who stretched out his hand.

Xiao Lin, who received the small yellow croaker, quickly counted the number of small yellow croakers in the small suitcase, and immediately opened a release slip stamped with the seal of the military police headquarters, and handed the release slip to the Taiwanese.

Subsequently, Kobayashi happily left the banquet building with the gendarmes.

Zhou Lin made a look, the Taiwanese understood, packed up their things and followed Zhou Lin out.

The two got into Zhou Lin's car and drove towards the dock.

When they arrived at the wharf warehouse, the man handed the release slip to Zhou Lin, and Zhou Lin asked Wang Hu to let him go.

Wang Hu looked at the release slip in disbelief, and then didn't say anything, and let people send a thousand catties of tobacco to a speedboat on the dock.

Zhou Lin sent the man onto the boat: "Since you know me, you can find me if you have something in the future." My phone number is 12345"

The man said sincerely, "Definitely! My name is Li Xiahui. Thank you! ”

Zhou Lin stood on the dock until Li Xiahui's speedboat left for ten minutes, and there was nothing abnormal on the sea, before returning to the office.

Zhou Lin sat on a chair, holding twenty small yellow croakers, touching each other and playing.

The phone on the table rang, and Zhou Lin picked up the phone.

The call was from the director of the confidential office in the department, informing Zhou Lin to go to the office for a meeting.

"The director is gone, who will call the meeting?" Zhou Lin asked.

"The Gendarmerie Command informed that the new Chief of the Division would take up his post immediately." The director of the confidential room is a woman who is nearly thirty years old, and she can usually say a few words to Zhou Lin.

Zhou Lin had no choice but to put away the small yellow croaker, drove out of the dock, and drove towards the office building.

When he arrived at the conference room, Zhou Lin found that he was waiting for himself.

In the center sat Yamada, and Kobayashi stood behind him, like a door god.

On the left sat a man of thirty-five or sixteen, wearing a pair of glasses.

The others have not changed, oh, there is one less Yang Yu, and no one has added.

Yamada pointed to the first position on his right hand, which was an empty seat, and asked Zhou Lin to sit down.

Waiting for Zhou Lin to sit down, Yamada began to speak: "The Economic Supervision Office has been established for a month, and there are achievements and mistakes. What I'm saying is, when you go back, you have to think about it, what's wrong? Why do you make mistakes? How to correct mistakes in the future and make sure that you don't make mistakes. Do you understand? ”

"Understood!" The voices of the crowd were loud, which made Yamada satisfied.

"Now announce the personnel appointments of the gendarmerie command!"

Yamada's eyes swept over the people left and right: "Appoint Chopin!" ”

"Huh!" The man on the left stood up: "Here!" ”

"Appointment of Chopin as head of the Economic Inspectorate! Take office immediately. ”

"Yes!" Chopin sat down and looked at the expressions of the people on either side of the table.

"Appoint Zhou Lin!" Yamada was not finished yet, and called Zhou Lin's name again.

Zhou Lin looked at Yamada, and then reacted: "Here!" ”

"Zhou Lin was appointed as the deputy director of the Economic Supervision Department, concurrently serving as the head of the first section, and at the same time temporarily serving as the chief of the third section! Take office immediately. ”

Zhou Lin raised his head and shouted loudly: "Thank you for your trust!" I will definitely hold a summary meeting with people from one subject and three subjects to discuss previous mistakes, and strive to make fewer mistakes or even no mistakes in the future......"

"Good!" Yamada clapped his hands.

The conference room immediately burst into applause.

After sending Yamada away, Chopin invited Zhou Lin to sit in the conference room, which is now his office, and the director's original office is being renovated.

Chopin thought that the office was not going well, so he renovated it extensively.

"What good advice does Deputy Director Zhou have for the personnel situation in the department?" Chopin asked.

Zhou Lin smiled: "My job is in one department, and I also lead three departments, and as for the affairs of the department, I listen to the director." ”

Chopin said with satisfaction: "After the resignation of the original director of the telecommunications office in our department, there has been no new person taking office, and that mess is very important!" ”

"The Commissioner didn't bring anyone this time?" Zhou Lin asked.

"There are two people, one is suitable for the director of the Confidential Office, and the other is going to be put in Corey in the future." Chopin's meaning Zhou Lin understood that the person was here to pick up the head of the third section.

But Yamada didn't approve it, so the man stayed in the place first.

"I have a suggestion!" Zhou Lin remembered someone.

"Tell me about it!" Chopin also had a headache in order to arrange people, but unfortunately his people did not understand the work of telecommunications and could not take over.

"The current director of the confidential office has worked in telecommunications for seven or eight years. It is better to let her be the director of the telecommunications room, and the director of the vacated confidential room can arrange people. Zhou Lin had heard the current director of the confidential room say several times that she didn't want to do this errand, so Zhou Lin helped.

Chopin wrote down the notes with a pen, and then, after the two talked about trivial matters, Zhou Lin took his leave and returned to the docks.

As soon as I arrived at the pier, I found the bald head waiting outside the office.

"Bald, Sanke is still stable now!" Zhou Lin shouted into the bald head.

"Section Chief, oh, it's wrong, Director!"

"It's the deputy director!" Zhou Lin corrected.

"Yes, Deputy Director! The people in the three sections are basically fine, but it turns out that several people from the section chief have been arrested, and everyone has forgotten about them. So the work is not bad. "The bald head is Zhou Lin's eyes arranged in the three departments, and if there is anything, he will report it immediately.

"Hmmm! Well done! I am ready to propose that you be the Deputy Chief of the Third Section. Zhou Lin took out a cigarette and threw it to the bald head.

"Thank you, Deputy Director! I will always follow you closely and be your little follower. The bald head didn't know how to express his gratitude to Zhou Lin.

Thousands of miles away in Wuhan, Dai Li was drinking with Mao Yimin at home.

"Haha! Zhongtong's bunch of stupid people, the goods of the entire sixty small yellow croakers are all cheaper than Yamada's bastard. Dai Li gloated.

"Lao Chen now estimates that he has the heart to kill." Mao Yimin said.

"The old man has already warned him not to deal with Zhou Lin." Dai Li said.

"What reason?" Mao Yimin asked.

"Our access plan has to use Zhou Lin to get through. If Zhou Lin is dead, then the passage plan will be ten times more difficult. So Lao Chen hated Zhou Lin in his heart, but he couldn't do anything about Zhou Lin. ”

"Is there any result of the matter of the Japanese spy in the pearl of the central system?" Mao Yimin always remembered the assassination of Zhou Lin twice, which was ruined by the informant.

"There was no result, but the target was narrowed down to two people."

"One team leader, who is the other?"

"The one who went to cooperate with the hoe team to kill Zhou Lin's family. His performance was so weird, and Yang Yu once reported it to me. Dai Li looked out of the house.

"Is there anything suspicious about him?" Mao Yimin poured wine for Dai Li.

That time, he went to cooperate, and he had already discovered the enemy's three-layer encirclement, so he waited for the hoe team to enter the encirclement. At the time, he couldn't get by. But as soon as he fires a warning shot, the hoe team will know that the plan has leaked and will be able to withdraw from it. But he didn't call the police, and came back and told Yang Yu that the hoe team had already acted, and it was too late. In fact, at that time, the hoe team only moved five minutes later. ”

"Dog, it's either a traitor or a ghost who is afraid of death!" Mao Yimin scolded.

"If you don't save you when you die, it's not a good thing anyway!" Dai Lian also scolded.

"Is there a problem with that team leader?" Mao Yimin asked again.

"There is also a problem, at one point he was out of sight for three days, and we suspect that he may have been arrested. More likely to have defected. ”

"Lao Dai, according to this, the two existing people in the Zhongtong Mingzhu Group are unreliable? Does Lao Chen know? ”

"Lao Chen already knows that the current situation is that the true situation of the Central Union will not be told to the Mingzhu Group, and the personnel will not be sent to Mingzhu."

"Still sent? Meat buns beat dogs - there is no return. Mao Yimin took a sip.

"Lao Chen is preparing to dispose of those two people secretly."

Mao Yimin said: "Don't! Just give those two people to Zhou Lin, add a stroke to the Japanese merit book, and help Zhou Lin make meritorious contributions! ”

"That's right! We can reuse it. "Dai Li's interested.

"But how can you inform Zhou Lin? His liaison is not yet in place. By the way, has he chosen a liaison? ”

"His liaison has been chosen, a colonel with more than twenty years of espionage career. He is a person who is infinitely loyal to the party. Dai Li said affirmatively.

Mao Yimin knows that the person who can be praised by Dai Li like this must be an excellent talent.

"Then the two of us will go and report to the old man now, submit the two things, and ask the old man to decide."

So, the two stopped drinking and went to the official residence together.

In the official residence, Minister Chen was reporting to the old man about the seizure of the tobacco.

"It's this Zhou Lin bad thing again, he was already out of the customs, and he was about to get on the boat, but Zhou Lin led the troops to stop him, and everything was destroyed."

"Your own people can't do things, let people check it, what else do you say?" The old man said.

"I request that Zhou Lin be assassinated!" Minister Chen asked.

The old man was angry: "What are you talking about as a minister and a major spy?" ”

"Major spy?" Minister Chen's face turned red: "Oh! I understand! I see. ”

The old man sighed and said, "Remember the old man I asked you to arrange for someone to take care of for ten years?" ”

"Remember! Uncle Bolt. "Minister Chen is strange, that person has no children or daughters?

"Zhou Lin is his own grandson!" The old man said.

"So this kid is now our man?"

"Just pulled over! It was Yu Nong who went to pull it and handed it over to Yu Nong. ”

Minister Chen was disappointed: "How did I not know? Speaking of which, his grandfather still talked to me. He should go to the Central Union. ”

"I think you should go find him and give him his grandfather's relics. Then put him in charge of the smoke ......"

"Yes, I'll go right away." Minister Chen is about to leave.

"If you talk to any person, will Zhou Lin believe it? It's no wonder you don't hit a wall. ”

Minister Chen returned to the old man: "Then how can I make him believe me?" ”

"There will be a person from the military command who will go to Mingzhu, who is Zhou Lin's liaison. Tomorrow I will summon him and ask him to carry out your plan as well as yours while he carries out it. After he gets in touch with Zhou Lin, he will introduce Zhou Lin to you. ”

"Good way!" Minister Chen said happily.

At this time, the guards came in to report, and Dai Li and Mao Yimin asked to see him.

The old man let the two of them in, and Minister Chen was about to leave.

"Minister Chen, what we reported is related to you." Dai Li said.

The old man motioned for Minister Chen to sit down and listen to what Dai Li had to say.

Dai Li told the story of the two of Mingzhu Zhongtong, and the plan was praised by the old man.

Minister Chen also went against the norm and unexpectedly supported the plan.

Thus, the plan to lift Zhou Lin upwards officially began.
