Chapter 101: Xie Xiuyun's careful thoughts

"Hongyun Teahouse, three o'clock in the afternoon" While receiving the cigarette box change, a small note was sandwiched in the change and handed to Jin Kai, a cigarette stall at the mouth of the alley opposite Jin Kai's residence, which was a joint point, and the Shanghai underground party acted as a liaison between Jin Kai and the others. Usually, if Jin Kai has something, he will spread the news through this cigarette stall, and similarly, if other people want to see Jin Kai, they will also inform Jin Kai through this cigarette stall.

This kind of contact method was only available after Jin Kai came to Shanghai, so as to effectively avoid the possibility of Jin Kai being betrayed by traitors, and at the same time, only Jin Kai, who had the list of all the underground party members in Shanghai, knew all the [***] underground parties lurking in Shanghai. This one-line network of contacts can ensure that even if someone defects, they only know who their upline and downline are, and the rest of the underground party will have plenty of time to get out.

The person who asked to see Jin Kai in this note was Xie Xiuyun, some time ago, Jin Kai had been asking Xie Xiuyun about Zhao Zhi's information, and today it was Yan Wudao's turn to train those mercenaries, so Xie Xiuyun took the idle Zhao Zhi out early, under the banner of shopping, in fact, he wanted to take Zhao Zhi to see Jin Kai. The superiors want to investigate Zhao Zhi's information, and Xie Xiuyun can only do it, and if this matter is not resolved for a day, Xie Xiuyun's heart will not be steady for a day. So after obtaining Zhao Zhi's consent, Xie Xiuyun decided to let Zhao Zhi and Jin Kai meet once, at least to show Zhao Zhi's attitude and sincerity.

"Xie Xiuyun made an appointment for me to meet at the Hongyun Teahouse in the afternoon, I guess it was for Zhao Zhi's business, I heard that this Zhao Zhi has returned to Shanghai, but he has been living in the Hunter's house on the Bund, where foreigners gather, and our people can't approach him at all" Jin Kai paced back and forth in the room with a cigarette in his hand. Sitting across from him was a middle-aged man with a grim face and a young man in his 20s with a fierce look, this middle-aged man was a messenger sent by the Northern Bureau, and the young man was his guard.

Xie Xiuyun's family has sacrificed three people for the Anti-Japanese War, and her two brothers and an uncle have died in the hands of Yue himself, so Jin Kai does not doubt Xie Xiuyun's loyalty, he just can't make up his mind and can't judge what Xie Xiuyun asked to see him for at this time. The burned cigarette ash fell on Jin Kai's hand, scalding Jin Kai in contemplation, and suddenly, an idea appeared in Jin Kai's mind, Xie Xiuyun's original intention of meeting him was for Zhao Zhi, but the person who really wanted to meet him in the afternoon was Zhao Zhi.

The Northern Bureau was not very clear about Zhao Zhi's affairs, and they only knew a little bit about it from the telegram from the Eighth Route Army Headquarters, so their secret letter only said that Zhao Zhi was a person of great interest to the Eighth Route Army Headquarters, and they needed the Shanghai Underground Party to investigate Zhao Zhi's background information and personal information as soon as possible. That messenger was only responsible for bringing Zhao Zhi's information back, and as for why he wanted to investigate this person named Zhao Zhi, he didn't know the reason.

"Who is Hunter? It sounds like a foreign name" The messenger from the Northern Bureau suddenly became interested in Hunter, a character who did not appear when he accepted the mission, since Zhao Zhi was able to live in his home, then this Hunter should also be included in his own situation. What's more, the messenger who was born in the Red Army did not have a very good impression of those foreigners, and if this Zhao Zhi had any collusion with foreigners, he would not mind assassinating this Zhao Zhi in Shanghai.

"Hunter is an American, he has been in Shanghai for 5 years, he is a good friend of Zhao Zhi, he is also a businessman, he is very famous in the upper circle of foreigners in Shanghai, his villa on the Bund is next to the British Consulate" Jin Kai tried hard to recall the information about Hunter collected by the Shanghai underground party, "This person is a trader, he does all kinds of business, the first in Shanghai was to sell weapons to start his family, but the business has always been not bad"

"Hunter has a lot of bodyguards, all of whom are retired soldiers and policemen he invited from abroad, Zhao Zhi's house in the concession is protected by Hunter's bodyguards for a long time, these people are good, and they all have guns, it seems that Zhao Zhi can also call these bodyguards"

"You think it's going to be dangerous?" The messenger looked up at Jin Kai, it is best to be careful behind enemy lines, just listened to Jin Kai talk about Zhao Zhi's general situation, the messenger felt that this person named Zhao Zhi and the foreigners in Shanghai were too close, and if he didn't make a small profit, he would betray Jin Kai, thus threatening the underground party in Shanghai, so in his subconscious, he was against Jin Kai going to the Hongyun Teahouse in the afternoon.

Jin Kai shook his head, it was easy to have this opportunity, he would not miss it, "I'm going, if my guess is right, the person who wants to meet me in the afternoon must be Zhao Zhi himself, he is just under the guise of Xie Xiuyun" Jin Kai smiled confidently, and turned his face to meet the messenger's concerned gaze, so he had to wave his hand again and again and said, "The comrades of the underground party will enter the teahouse in advance in the afternoon, and from 2 o'clock to 5 o'clock, only our people will drink tea in the Hongyun teahouse, It is estimated that Zhao Zhi will not be able to play any tricks."

Zhao Zhi had promised Xie Xiuyun to meet her so-called superiors once, but early this morning, Xie Xiuyun shouted that she wanted to go shopping, and deliberately left Su Mei in the villa, Zhao Zhi knew that Xie Xiuyun had already contacted her superiors, maybe even the place and place to meet had been arranged, so Zhao Zhi cheered up and accompanied Xie Xiuyun for a long morning.

"Shall we go for tea?" Xie Xiuyun looked at Zhao Zhi a little nervously, a pair of soft wattles had already grabbed Zhao Zhi's arm, and Zhao Zhi had the intention of forcibly pulling him into the teahouse if he didn't agree. It's almost time to make an appointment with Jin Kai, Xie Xiuyun has secretly looked at the time countless times along the way, she has to choose a good time and timing, neither let Zhao Zhi feel bored, nor make Zhao Zhi feel that he is forcing him to comply.

Xie Xiuyun's idea carefully thought that he could hide it from Zhao Zhi, and tapped Xie Xiuyun's nose with his hand, Zhao Zhi said with a smile, "Okay, it just so happens that I'm also a little thirsty" Zhao Zhi and Xie Xiuyun are standing across the street is the Hongyun Teahouse, Zhao Zhi doesn't have to think about it, Xie Xiuyun and her superiors agreed that the place is this Hongyun Teahouse, so he didn't feel how surprised Xie Xiuyun was when he said that he wanted to drink tea at this time, on the contrary, Zhao Zhi still pretended not to know Xie Xiuyun's arrangement at all.
