At 6 o'clock in the morning of 29 July, Ge Jiapeng, a military commander who had rushed to Shanghai from northern Jiangsu, and four other people, drove two horse-drawn carriages full of vegetables to the berth of the ocean liner Queen Victoria at the Rising Sun Wharf, and the passenger ship was in charge of logistics by a Chinese Lao Jin from Hong Kong. He looked at his watch and said, "Why did you come?" The post office cars are all in front of you. Why didn't Old Joe come? ”

Ge Jiapeng, who was dressed as a car boss, wiped his sweat and said with a smile: "Lao Qiao had enteritis and went to the hospital to see a doctor, but he was isolated as soon as he went. Boss Hong of the vegetable store asked us to do it for him for a few days. This is Boss Hong's film. It's not just six o'clock, and I didn't dare to come late. You can take an inventory, and we'll move it to the ship when it's done. ”

Lao Jin sighed, he knew Boss Hong's vegetable cart, so he didn't take the film, but took out a photo of Guo Xuan, looked at the four people carefully, and was sure that there was no one in the photo. That's when the counting of vegetables began. Halfway through the o'clock, the thunderstorm that had been depressed all night finally came, and the raindrops of beans smashed down, and he wanted to be lazy and not check, so he said: "It's not a day or two to cooperate with your boss Hong, forget it, don't check, you move quickly, drive the car away after moving, don't block here." ”

Ge Jiapeng and the others promised while working: "Don't worry, Boss Jin, you go to shelter from the rain, don't get sick." It's not like us coarse people, who have rough skin and thick meat. ”

Half an hour later, the vegetables on the car were emptied, and at some point, a car owner wearing the same number quietly appeared, or four people, and drove away the carriage. In the heavy rain, no one noticed the scene of changing horses.

In the bottom cabin of the Queen Victoria passenger ship, Ge Jiapeng changed into the uniform of the crew who was hidden under the vegetables and brought in, and took out weapons and other items. When he went to the cabin where the mail was loaded, he took out a screwdriver, pried open the door and got in. Find two large boxes with top-secret mail attached, and carefully pry them open. Guo Xuan came out of it.

Guo Xuan let out a sigh of relief and said to Ge Jiapeng, who was repairing the box: "I heard from Stationmaster Zhou that you are Lao Ye's apprentice?" How much of his skills have he learned? Have you ever been to Shanghai before? ”

Ge Jiapeng quickly repaired the box, and Guo Xuan looked at it, seamlessly. Ge Jiapeng put away his tools and replied, "I followed Chief Ye to mingle with the rivers and lakes at the age of twelve or thirteen, and it has been more than ten years. Later, he joined the military command with him. I've never been to Shanghai before. Speaking of this, he smiled a little, and said: "As for the skill, I think I have long been better than the blue, but unfortunately my master does not approve, and other people also think that I am bragging." In a moment, my work will be unveiled: the fake 'Guo Xuan', and you will know that what I said is true. ”

Guo Xuan couldn't help but smile, this Ge Jiapeng feels very good about himself.

At seven o'clock in the morning of the 29th, Li Shiqun finished breakfast, remembered that the driver of the special car, Lao Ma, should still be in the hospital, and said to Pingchuan Xinye, who was still very rusty beside him: "You go to the driver's class to see who is on duty......

Before the words fell, Liu Zezhi walked in: "Director, yesterday you explained that you set off for the Rising Sun Pier at seven o'clock today, the time is almost up, although the rain has stopped temporarily at this time, but the sky is very cloudy, it seems that it will rain heavily, and it is not easy to walk on the road." The car is ready. ”

Li Shiqun looked at Liu Zezhi, who looked haggard but neatly dressed, nodded, and said, "Let's go." Hirakawa-kun, you also come with me. Zezhi, don't look for another driver, you come to drive. ”

At half past seven, Sir George and his party boarded the Queen Victoria, and Consul Anderson, who saw them off, came. On the deck, Sir George, who has been riding all his life and is over sixty years old, still has a straight waist, looking at Shanghai in the rain, and sighs infinitely: "Alas, Shanghai in the rain looks so quiet on the surface, and there is no chance to come back." ”

Consul Anderson also sighed and replied, "Sir, you seem to have something to do?" Did you really think that the high-ranking disciple Guo Xuan would keep his promise and suddenly appear? Even if you have the code-breaking technology that the Chinese need, although tens of millions of people have been there, it was the Chinese more than a hundred years ago. Today's Chinese, who have little wisdom but lack great wisdom, will not put themselves in danger for the sake of their country. Although Ling Gaotu is a native of Hong Kong and educated in London, at the end of the day - he is Chinese. ”

Sir George smiled and said, "I don't want him to come, and I know he won't, though he promised me that he would come to cover me." Anderson, you may not know it yet: the code-breaking technology I mastered has already managed to be handed over to Guo Xuan. And the production line that the Chinese government in Chongqing urgently needed, I also asked Captain Henry to transport it out of Shanghai for them. ”

Consul Anderson was surprised that Sir George was a soldier and that the secrets he held were not his own. If he is sanctioned by military law because of this, is it worth it for Guo Xuan, a Chinese? However, the military's affairs are not something he can interfere in, and said with a smile: "This is our British soldiers, dare to act." Even so, Guo Xuan will not show up. So, sir, why are you so gloomy? Oh, could it be that you are worried that Guo Xuan's failure to show up will make Ying Zuozhen Showa and Li Shiqun suspect that you did not fully assist them in trapping Guo Xuan, and use this as an excuse to not let you make the trip? Sir with all due respect, you have been overwhelmed. With the British Empire as our backing, what can Kagesazhen Zhao do to me? ”

"I'm really worried, Ying Zuo Zhenzhao and Li Shiqun, these people, have lost all their wolf and will do whatever it takes. But I'm thinking about it now more than just this question - Anderson, do you think the Japanese will turn against the British Empire? Hong Kong and Southeast Asia were the spheres of influence of the British Empire, and there were strategic materials that the Japanese urgently needed: oil and rubber. Once Britain and Japan meet each other, China, which is in the midst of a fierce war with Japan, will be our natural ally, do you think this ally ...... Is it reliable? ”

Consul Anderson laughed: "Chinese? It's really good, as I said, that's from the past. This nation has fallen! Otherwise, it would not have been possible for Japan, a former vassal state, to trample on this. The affairs of the British Empire are the affairs of the British, and we do not need to rely on anyone, especially China, such a nation and country are not worthy of being allies of the British Empire! ”

Sir George shook his head and said, "Anderson, it's been ...... time" Before he finished speaking, Sir George, who was condescending on the deck, saw Li Shiqun's special car and changed the subject: "Anderson, you see, Li Shiqun is also here, and Ying Zuo Zhenzhao has also arrived." ”

Li Shiqun's special car stopped at the berth of the Rising Sun Wharf, and Tian Chengxi, who was commanding the vigilance here, greeted him: "Director Li, you are here." Old George and his party had already boarded the boat, and Yamamu-kun accompanied them. Now Yamaki-kun is on the ship. ”

Li Shiqun saw Ying Zuo Zhenzhao's car driving over, stopped to greet him, the two had a brief conversation, and got on the boat from the special passage specially set aside by Tian Chengxi.

Shadow Zuo Zhenzhao, who was dressed in military uniform, gave a military salute and said, "Sir, Shadow Zuo is late, rude." ”

Sir George looked at his watch and said with a smile: "It's half past eight, Guo Xuan didn't show up, it seems that this person will not come." Kagesa, are you here to see you off? Or are you here to detain me? ”

Ying Zuo Zhen Zhao laughed: "Sir, you are serious, Ying Zuo does not dare." In terms of selfishness, you are the mentor of Kagesa; You are a knight of the British Empire and a distinguished guest of the Japanese occupation forces. What's more, we have a word in advance: as long as you are willing to advise Ying Zuo and cooperate with Ying Zuo to arrest the wanted bandit leader Guo Xuan, whether it is successful or not, Ying Zuo is grateful. I think that the book "Programming and Deciphering Light Secrets" that you gave to Kagesa will be of great benefit to Kagesa and Japan. ”

Sir George smiled silently, and he was confident that with the ability of Shadow Akira to see the flaws in that book, it was not a matter of a day or two. Consul Anderson replied, "General Kagesa, fortunately." Last time at the dinner at the consulate, I was so busy that I didn't have a chance to ask you for advice. ”

Kage Zuo Zhenzhao smiled: "Hello, Mr. Consul. Speaking of the last dinner, Kagesa hasn't had a chance to thank him yet. At the dinner, in front of Chinese and foreign reporters, Sir spoke eloquently, refuting the rumors about Japan-Britain relations by some people with ulterior motives, and clarifying many misunderstandings. Kagezo was grateful. ”

Several people were chatting here, Liu Zezhi and Tian Chengxi stood on the deck not far away and waited, and the rain that stopped for a long time began to fall again, Tian Chengxi said: "Zezhi, you are guarding here, the rain is falling again, I will send someone to bring a few umbrellas to Director Li and General Yingzuo." ”

Liu Zezhi, who was full of worries, looked blankly at Shanghai in the rain and fog and did not answer. Tian Chengzhi sighed This Liu Zezhi, I don't know if I heard my words. Alas, it's no wonder that not long after my brother died, it was not easy to do this. Go early and return early, don't wait until there is something at the chief's place, you can't find anyone.

Tian Chengxi had just walked a few steps, and Liu Zezhi suddenly said: "Captain Tian, look at that person, look-"

Tian Chengxi looked in the direction pointed by Liu Zezhi, a thirty-four-five-year-old man wearing a white shirt and holding an oil-paper umbrella, who was about to board the ship from the first-class passage - that person was actually Guo Xuan!
