After the agreed two-hour time was up, Ah Xing called Lao Pan. Lao Pan told him on the phone that he could agree to his request.

Although it was already expected, Ah Xing still couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart after hearing it. The two parties agreed that an hour later, Lao Pan would pick up Ah Xing, and in order to show his sincerity, he would just go over alone.

After making the call, paying the money, Ah Xing went back.

On the way back, his mood was much better, Lao Pan was trustworthy, not that Ah Xing knew him well, but Ah Xing was willing to believe in this person in his heart, after all, he had no other way.

……

When Ah Xing connected with Lao Pan, Ah Shui had already arrived at the office of the Investigation Department.

Ah Shui walked forward, and the officer on duty explained his intention, the man yawned, took out a pen and paper as usual, and said, "Say, what news?" ”

It's not that this person is too perfunctory, it's just that there are too many people who have come to report these days. Among them, there are a lot of sneakers and tricksters, who want to earn bounties on this bit of fake news.

Seeing that the man looked disdainful, Ah Shui leaned over and said, "What I said is big news, about Wang Maocai." ”

After finishing speaking, Ah Shui looked proud, thinking that the other party would be surprised, and then nodded respectfully to himself, but he didn't expect the other party to be quite disapproving, he waved his hand, held the pen and asked slowly: "Oh, let's talk about it." ”

Ah Shui didn't expect it to be this kind of treatment, but he still hugged his arms and said arrogantly: "That's not good." You have to keep your promises before I can say that. ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his right hand, twisted his thumb and forefinger slightly, and hugged it back to his shoulder.

"Keeping promises? You mean the bounty, right? The man asked slowly, putting down the pen in his hand.

The corners of Ah Shui's mouth rose and he smiled slightly.

The man was impatient, and waved his hand to the guard at the door, "Get out!" ”

"Get out?" Ah Shui was surprised that he had misheard, but at this time the guard had already walked in. The tall guards carried Ah Shui out like a chicken.

It's not that this clerk is too confused, it's just that there are too many scammers who come here every day, and their usual routine is to say that they find a certain big man and a traitor, and they will reward them if they open their mouths. And these people, often after getting the bounty, disappear without a trace.

The investigation team has a lot of work, and these small things are not worth investigating, so they can only be expelled when they encounter these things.

Two guards grabbed Ah Shui by the collar and threw him outside. Ah Shui shouted while greeting: "I really have news of a big traitor!" You put me down, I'm not a liar! ”

The guards didn't listen to his explanation at all, and still threw him outside.

At this time, Director Liu happened to walk by, and after hearing the words "Wang Maocai", his heart moved. These days, Director Zhou instructed him to handle Wang Maocai's case, but that Ah Qiang didn't open his mouth to live or die, and all kinds of punishments in the pre-cadre department were used all over again, and he didn't pry his mouth open.

For this reason, Yang Yibing reprimanded Boss Dai fiercely, Boss Dai sprinkled his anger on Director Zhou's head, and Director Zhou transferred it to Director Liu's head, and finally Lao Liu could only transfer his anger to Ah Qiang and suggested that he be publicly shot.

Although this proposal is a bit unreliable, but seeing that Ah Qiang has no use value, he held a special trial in the Shanghai Special Court, and then pulled him out and died.

In the past few days, he has been thinking about this matter, and naturally he is alert when he hears Wang Maocai. He happened to hear this from the man at the door, so he waved his hand and motioned for the guard to stop.

The guard dragged Ah Shui over, walked up to Director Liu and said, "Director Liu, this person is a liar." ”

"Did you verify it? How can you say that people are liars without verification? Director Liu reprimanded the guard.

The guard looked confused, so he had no choice but to retreat.

As soon as Ah Shui saw this situation, he knew that his turning point had come, and he hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Sir, I do have important information to report. ”

……

Ah Xing still felt a little uneasy, so he asked Xiao Daiyu to hide in the dark first, and he waited for Lao Pan's arrival here.

Time passed minute by minute, and in the more than an hour of waiting, Ah Xing felt that it was extremely long. He sat still, his pocket drained of a pack of three forts, and he looked out of the window from time to time.

Finally, when the last cigarette was about to be smoked, a bright light flashed at the exit of the alley, and he leaned down to watch as an open-top jeep with a Yellow River brand drove in.

There were two people in the car, and it was Lao Pan who sat in the co-pilot.

Ah Xing threw away the cigarette butt in his hand and staggered downstairs.

When he went downstairs, Lao Pan had already walked in. Lao Pan was wearing a long coat and robe, there was no token in Shuangli, and a jeep was parked outside, and the strong man he saw when he went to Lao Pan was sitting in the car-Hu Biao.

"Mr. Zhou, I can still trust it." Lao Pan stood there and smiled slightly.

Ah Xing walked over, and now he was basically sure that if Lao Pan wanted to arrest him, he would definitely not put on this formation again.

"Okay, Mr. Pan is full of words, I admire! Little Daiyu, come out. Saying that, Ah Xing clapped his hands, and Xiao Daiyu also came out of the stairs.

Lao Pan looked at Xiao Daiyu and smiled, he knew this person, Wang Maocai's concubine, the head of the four roads.

"Mr. Zhou, this lady, I have admired it for a long time!" Lao Pan arched his hand quite in the rivers and lakes, needless to say that he had already guessed what was going on.

Xiao Daiyu was not alarmed, and came over to say hello to Lao Pan.

Ah Xing smiled: "I trust you Mr. Pan, also because of your character." In front of you, I'm a junior, don't call me 'Mr. 'Mr.', call me Ah Xing. ”

This can be regarded as a step closer to the distance between the two sides, and Lao Pan arched his hand slightly: "Then I will take the liberty." Ah Xing and this lady, let's get in the car and go! ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand at Hu Biao, who hit the car and drove towards this side with one foot on the accelerator.

When everyone got into the car and was about to leave, at this time, a burst of lights flashed at the entrance of the alley, and the sound of cars and motorcycles came. Ah Xing was greatly surprised, and when he was surprised, the convoy had already left.

I saw a jeep and a number of sidecar motorcycles driving in, and more than a dozen soldiers with loaded guns surrounded them.

"You're fooling me!" Ah Xing was about to jump.

"What nonsense!" Hu Biao scolded angrily, because he couldn't figure out the situation either.

At this time, everyone found that the concubine Ah Shui got out of the car.

Ah Shui pointed to the jeep lane: "Director Liu, it's them!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Director Liu, who was wearing a lapel national uniform and combing his oily hair, out of the car, he couldn't help but be stunned when he saw this jeep, and then looked at the people on it, it turned out to be his old rival Lao Pan and Hu Biao under Han Guang.

Director Liu didn't have a good impression of these two marginalized figures, if it weren't for the fact that these two people supported Han Guang's actions and didn't support himself, the first hero of the recovery of Shanghai probably would belong to himself.

Although he was a little surprised, Director Liu still pretended to have an indifferent expression, and he said happily: "Mr. Pan, Mr. Hu, why are you two here?" Still messing with these traitors? ”

"Why are you here?" Lao Pan also asked.

"Naturally, I'm here to arrest the traitors. Tsk tsk, it's all together? How could you be with a traitor? Director Liu didn't want to say more, so he waved his hand and said, "Come on, take them all!" ”

"Fuck you......" Hu Biao scolded at the same time, his hand was already touching the pistol on his waist, but before he could pull it out, the gendarmes had already aimed several * at his head.

Hu Biao was shot, and Director Liu saw that the crisis was resolved, and waved his hand: "Take them all back!" ”

……

When the picket traitors were busy in Shanghai, the high-profile meeting between the heads of state of China, the United States, Britain and the Soviet Union finally finalized the time.

The US side suggested that the heads of state of China, the United States, the United Kingdom, and the Soviet Union should hold their first meeting in Canada and make a study and judgment on the situation of the war in the future.

After reading the US briefing, Huang Ke said to Chen Liewen: "Call back to Roosevelt and say that I will go to the appointment on time to attend this meeting." ”

Chen Liewen immediately wrote it down after hearing this, and after a while, he asked hesitantly: "Then the Soviet side, do you still need to continue to communicate?" Moscow remains ambiguous about the termination of non-aggression relations with Japan. ”

"No need, they've agreed!" Huang Ke waved his hand.

Chen Liewen was extremely surprised when he heard this, because he had just confirmed with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs that the People's Commissariat for Foreign Affairs of the Soviet Union had not given any reply.

It's not right, even if he called in person, he should have known, not to mention that the time difference between them is so short?

Seeing that Chen Liewen was so surprised, Huang Ke smiled and said: "At the meeting of the heads of state of the four countries, Stalin will definitely agree to dissolve the non-aggression relationship with Japan. ”

Chen Liewen frowned.

"What? Not convinced? Huang Ke asked.

Chen Liewen hurriedly said: "No, it's just that I don't understand." I still can't reach the ideological height of the chairman. ”

"There is nothing difficult to understand this, the reason why the Soviets signed a non-aggression pact with Japan is because Japan poses a threat to the Soviet Union, and Moscow is worried that Japan and Germany will be caught between Japan and Germany. Now that our troops have driven Japan into the sea, Moscow has no such worries, and naturally there is no need to worry about relations with Japan. ”

"I see!" Chen Liewen said with a sudden realization.

"You go and call Roosevelt back, by the way, then call Lin Zuoda and Sun Liren, and say that they can start acting." Huang Ke said firmly.

"Yes!" Chen Liewen leaned on his heels.
