Chapter 2: Surveillance

Outside the cargo hold not far from Mukden Station, Shin Dongjun with a cold face sat in the Nissan 70 sedan, closed his eyes and waited, there were still ten minutes before the assault operation could begin, according to intelligence, there were a total of 10 members of the Korean Independence Army disguised as workers in the warehouse, this was the first time in Mukden to find such a large number of "terrorists" at one time, whether it was the Manchurian * political side or the Japanese Kwantung Army side, the instructions issued were to try to leave 3 or more alive.

On the periphery, Shin Dongjun arranged more than 40 plainclothes policemen from the Mukden Police Station, and also distributed M1938A submachine guns imported from Italy to 10 plainclothes commandos for the first time, which had less than 50 guns in the entire Mukden, because the intelligence said that the other party had "heavy weapons", but as for what the "heavy weapons" were, the plainclothes who were watching did not find out clearly.

Shen Dongjun finally opened his eyes, and when he raised his hand to look at his watch, a plainclothes man hurriedly ran over and said in a low voice: "Section chief, the Japanese are here!" ”

Shen Dongjun frowned: "Which aspect?" ”

"The military police detachment of the Mantie Affiliated Territory under the Mukden Gendarmerie!" Plainclothes replied.

Shin Dongjun's expression returned to normal, because the real Japanese gendarmes in the gendarmerie detachment of the Manchurian railway attached to the railway only accounted for some of them, and the rest were constitutional supplements, and basically all of them were Chinese, Koreans, etc., who defected to the puppet Manchurians, and the Koreans could become gendarmerie supplements after learning and assessment, and the class was higher than the constitutional supplements, so he speculated that this batch should be military police supplements, which can be regarded as an assessment, and the Japanese want to see if this batch of Korean gendarmes supplements are really loyal and whether they will really start with their own compatriots.

After the plainclothes left, Shin Dongjun looked at the group of gendarmes running in the distance, and said coldly: "Dirty, stupid." ”

This mass movement of troops would certainly alarm the Korean Independence Army in the warehouse, and Shin Dong-joon immediately ordered all plainclothes to be left unmoved, while he got out of the car and walked towards the on-site command of the gendarmerie.

The commander had the rank of second lieutenant, and in the Japanese military establishment at that time, he was a third-class officer among the non-commissioned officers, that is, a little higher than the second lieutenant Cao, and belonged to a regular officer.

Shin Dong-joon stepped forward and asked, "Hello, I'm Shin Dong-joon, head of the Intelligence Section of the National Police Agency. ”

The other party ignored him, because his subordinates were all North Koreans, and he disdained the North Korean name "Shin Dongjun".

Shin Dongjun smiled slightly, and took out another document of his own, which was a Kwantung Army officer ID card with his photo and military rank pasted on it.

When Shen Dongjun handed over the document, the other party was obviously stunned, carefully looking at the photo on the document and Shen Dongjun's appearance, looking at the Japanese name on it, and the line of military rank "Zhongzuo", obviously disbelieving, but he had to believe it if he didn't believe it, in this case, it was impossible for the other party to take out fake documents to deceive him, not to mention that Shen Dongjun was from the Intelligence Section, and the officials in the Intelligence Department had dual identities, and it was normal to use a fake name.

"What's your name?" Shin Dong-joon then spoke in fluent Japanese, and in a Kanto dialect.

The other party immediately stood upright: "In Shimomatsumoto Town, the second lieutenant of the military police detachment of the Mantetsu Affiliated Land of the Mukden Military Police, I have offended many times before, I ask for your forgiveness!" ”

"What are you talking about?" Shin Dongjun frowned, because Matsumoto Jinji had a strong dialect flavor in his accent, "You're from Hokkaido, right?" The accent is really heavy. ”

Matsumoto was a little embarrassed, because if he spoke all the Hokkaido dialects, most Japanese people would sound struggling, so he immediately moved his tongue in his mouth and repeated it in a more standard Kanto accent.

Shin Dongjun nodded: "You take someone with you, since you are here, we will assist." ”

"This ......," Matsumoto immediately explained, "we also got the relevant information and rushed here according to the procedure." ”

Shen Dongjun said with a smile: "There is no need to explain, everyone wants to make meritorious contributions, especially people like you, who work hard to find connections to keep themselves here, instead of the rich children on the front line, they will climb slowly without meritorious service." ”

Matsumoto didn't know what to say, so he waved his hand and immediately rushed towards the warehouse with his men.

After the gendarmerie rushed over, the plainclothes on one side stepped forward and said with a bitter face: "Section chief, we have been staring at it for two and a half months, and we gave them the credit like this?" ”

Shin Dongjun shook his head and said, "It's a good thing to have less blood on your hands." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, there was an explosion in the warehouse, Shen Dongjun and plainclothes subconsciously squatted down, and then the explosions continued one after another, and black smoke rose from the warehouse a hundred meters away from them, and after the explosion lasted for a while, the warehouse began to burst into flames, and at the same time, many gendarmes threw away their guns and rushed out of it.

The plainclothes looked stupid, and immediately glanced at Shen Dongjun, with a cold sweat on his back - if he had led people to rush in earlier, I am afraid that he would have been blown to pieces.

"Section chief, what should I do?" Plainclothes asked immediately.

Shin Dong-joon looked at the warehouse that was already collapsing, but was still burning and exploding, and said, "Waiting to collect the corpse!" ”

At the same time as the explosion, Xing Renju and Chen Wenjing, who were in the residential area of the church, also discovered that because the black smoke was too thick, people in the entire Fengtian City could see it as long as they looked up, and people in some open areas didn't even need to look up, they could find it as soon as they raised their eyes.

The streets were crowded with people watching the excitement, all pointing and talking about it.

Chen Wenjing stepped forward and closed the window, so as not to disturb him and Xing Renju from the noise outside, and then asked: "Mr. Xing, the map you mentioned earlier, with my current tools and skills, it is still very difficult to hide it in the painting, and if it may be disrespectful, even if the master is alive, it will be difficult to do what you requested. ”

Xing Renju looked regretful: "But, apart from you, I can't think of anyone else in the world who can have such technology." ”

"Mr. Xing, don't worry, I haven't finished my words yet." Chen Wenjing motioned for Xing Renju to sit down and brought the teacup over, "It's not that there is no way." ”

Xing Renju immediately said: "What else can be done?" ”

Chen Wenjing looked at the painting next to him and said: "To hide the characters in the painting, it is actually simple, but to hide the picture, it takes a lot of effort, generally speaking, the easiest is to use double-layer paper, but just to find a skilled craftsman to make that kind of light and thin and suitable for painting paper, it takes a long time, so it can only be hidden in the texture of the object in the painting, but it takes a long time." ”

"How long will it take?" Xing Renju asked.

Chen Wenjing looked at the painting and calculated it carefully, and then said: "At least one or two years, at most five or six years or longer." ”

Xingren raised his fists and clenched his fists: "A year is okay, but five or six years is too long, I can't wait that long." ”

"If my junior brother is here, I can shorten the time." Chen Wenjing said again, "But he is not here now, he went to Harbin, his temper is too weird, he is simply a painting idiot, obsessed with imitating other people's paintings, he himself said that it is because he doesn't want to use his brain, but it is more difficult to imitate than his original work, I really don't understand him." ”

Xing Renju didn't say anything when he heard this, all he thought about was the words "original" and "imitation", he thought for a long time, and finally got up and said: "Okay, no matter what, this matter can only be entrusted to you, I will bring a detailed map in a few days...... By the way, do you know where your junior brother is in Harbin? ”

Chen Wenjing shook his head: "He, like the master, has no fixed residence, just told me that he went to Harbin, and then there was no news, I asked someone to inquire, but I couldn't find him at all, and I was still worried about whether something happened to him." ”

"Okay, I see, you wait for me." Xing Renju said and took out a gold bar from his bag, "You take this first, no matter inside or outside the customs, gold will always be more useful than banknotes." ”

Chen Wenjing immediately refused: "Mr. Xing, we are all peers, and there can be no one who can't eat in this business." ”

Xing Renju stuffed the gold bar into his hand: "I'm not helping you, this is a deposit, I will ask you to do something, I have to pay for it, this is the rule, I'm leaving, see you in a few days." ”

Chen Wenjing pinched the gold bar and walked towards Xing Renju, who stopped Chen Wenjing from leaving: "Stay, there was an accident before, there was chaos outside, don't go out, safety first." ”

Chen Wenjing said: "Mr. go slowly." ”

Xing Renju slowly left with his briefcase, Chen Wenjing closed the door, looked at the gold bar in his hand, and then walked to the window, looking at the alley below through the glass, until Xing Renju's back appeared there and disappeared at the mouth of the alley, he squatted down and said under the bed, "Master, he's gone." ”

Immediately afterward, an old voice came from the darkness under the bed: "Xing Renju is still as cautious as before. ”

"But he didn't find you." Chen Wenjing said, and at the same time stretched out his hand to help Zhang Molu who slowly crawled out, and let him sit down, "If he uses snacks and asks the people around him a little, he will know that you are still alive, so I especially don't understand why you asked me to tell him that you are dead." ”

Zhang Molu slowly walked to the window with a cane and looked at the empty alley: "You think you deceived him?" The moment you say that I died in Longquan, he knows it's a lie. ”

Chen Wenjing was puzzled: "Why? ”

"How simple it is, if he can find here, it means that he knows that I am in Mukden, and the friend he entrusted to Mukden is looking for me, not you, and if someone can tell him this address, it means that the investigator knows that I am still alive and well." Zhang Molu smiled, "So, you say, will he be stupid enough to believe your words?" ”

Chen Wenjing continued to shake his head: "But, since Master, you know that you can't hide it, why do you have to hide it?" ”

"If I meet him, I must also agree to his request, but I am now old, my eyes are not good, there is no way to complete the things he has entrusted, under this premise, if I hand over this work to you, it will be considered deception, violating the rules of my own family, but if I die, avoid it, and you take the initiative to take this job, then it will be no problem." Zhang Molu said, slowly walked back to the table and sat down, "He also knows my thoughts, so he went down the steps, and he didn't say anything, this is the tacit understanding of his peers, and what I do is true integrity, what I can't do, never do it." ”

Chen Wenjing nodded, thought for a while and asked, "Master, what about ...... Do you think I can do what Mr. Xing told me by myself? ”

"Maybe." Zhang Molu raised his eyes and looked at Chen Wenjing, "But what he thinks is not so simple, the reason why he wants to ask about the whereabouts of your junior brother shows that he already has another more secure plan." ”

Chen Wenjing said, "Master, aren't you interested in Qimen?" ”

Zhang Molu shook his head: "There is no cargo chaser who is not interested in Qimen, it should be said that there is only one kind of person who is not interested in Qimen, that is, people who don't know Qimen." ”

Chen Wenjing looked at the calm expression on Zhang Molu's face, as if he understood something......

Xing Renju, who returned to the hotel, before entering the room, saw the guy with the kettle walking towards him, and at the same time deliberately avoiding his eyes, at that moment, he seemed to realize something, and stopped the guy and asked: "Excuse me, after I left today, has a person surnamed Zhang come to me?" ”

"No, no!" The guy shook his head and spoke quickly.

"Oh, got it, thanks." Xing Renju smiled and nodded, opened the door and entered the house, after locking the door, he sat on the edge of the bed, and carefully observed this room, judging from the expression on the man's face, and the sentence that he should deal with himself, it showed that after he left today, someone entered this room, and it was the door that the man opened.

It won't be the people on the road who let the guys open the door, and it won't be their peers, because those people will only act in secret, and they won't use this method, and the only people who can do this in Mukden are two kinds of people, the puppet Manchu policemen or the Japanese.

Many years ago, when Xing Renju was still called Chen Jiujin, he was a county policeman, although the police of that era had not seen too cutting-edge technology, but the basic vigilance was still there, not to mention that he later became a cargo chaser. He knew that he was being watched, and that there must have been a listening device in the house, and that the other party had come to him, no doubt, for Qimen, because he had nothing on him that the other police and the Japanese were interested in.

The most important thing is that he can judge that this is not the act of the Manchurian government or the Japanese government, but the personal act of some people, because if it was the government's act, he would have been arrested a long time ago.

Xing Renju, who was sitting there, was most worried about whether Pan Jiaming had been exposed, whether he would be exposed for his own reasons, if so, his sin would be great, and it could not be made up, once this * underground party was arrested, it would lead to great problems in several quite important links in the anti-Japanese front.

What to do? How to make up for it? Xing Renju sat there and thought for a while, then got up and began to wash his hands and face, then sat down at the table and began to draw a map......

At the same time, in the residential building next to the hostel, Shin Dongjun's listening team was listening carefully to the movements in Xing Renju's house, while Shin Dongjun himself stood at the window, obliquely looking at the entrance of the hostel.

"What is he doing?" Shin Dong-joon asked, looking out the window.

A plainclothes man wearing headphones turned around: "It seems that I was washing something just now, but now listening to the voice, I should write something in front of the table." ”

"Hmm." Shin Dongjun glanced at the plainclothes and looked outside again, "Did he find out that we had bugging devices?" ”

"Probably not." Plainclothes replied, "His behavior is normal. ”

Shin Dong-joon left the window, walked to the door, opened the door and said to the plainclothes guarding outside the door, "Go, call the guy." ”

In the room, Xing Renju continued to draw the map, he drew quickly, and also wrote the landmark text in detail next to it, stopping from time to time to recall it carefully, and then he started writing.

The fellow was quickly brought to Shin Dong-joon, who sat down in a chair and asked, "Did he ask anything when he went back?" ”

The man said, "He just asked if anyone surnamed Zhang had ever looked for him." ”

Shin Dongjun looked at the guy's trembling wrist, got up and walked up and grabbed his wrist: "When he asked you, were your hands shaking too?" ”

"Nope! No! The guy didn't even say two, and the hand that was held shook faster.

Shen Dongjun let go of his partner's hand, took out 5 Manchukuo Yuan with a face value of 100, and handed it to him: "Yours." ”

The guy shook his head and waved his hand: "No, no. ”

"Don't like it?" Shin Dongjun smiled, "Do you still want gold?" ”

"No, no, no!" The guy panicked, where did he dare to offend these people.

Shin Dongjun stuffed the money into the man's hand: "If he looks for you again, you tell him directly, saying that after he left, the police searched his room, but found nothing, and then left, and then you tell him that in addition to his room, the police also searched two other rooms, as for who lives in those two rooms, you make it up yourself, don't mess up, mess up, and your life will be gone." ”

The man nodded vigorously and ran away.

For the next two days, Xing Renju did the same things as usual, drawing, sleeping, eating, reading newspapers, listening to the radio, and did not leave the hotel except for going out to buy a box of cigarettes.

In the early morning of the third day, when the guy passed by the door of Xing Renju's room, the door of Xing Renju suddenly opened, and the moment he saw the man, Xing Renju pretended to be surprised, and then returned to normal, and asked in a low voice: "Little brother, I ask you something." ”

The guy looked left and right, nodded with a forced composure, and subconsciously looked into the room.

When the guy looked into the room, Xing Renju subconsciously blocked it with his body, and the guy glanced at the papers on his desk, one of which slipped half down to the edge of the table, although he only glanced at it, but the guy was still sure that it was a picture.

"When I went out the other day, did anyone enter my house?" Xing Renju said, motioning for the man to enter the house, the man had to go in, he closed the door with his hand, and then took out a small bag, shook it, and stuffed it into the man.

The guy knew that the bag contained the ocean, and at that time the economy and conditions were quite good in Mukden, although the circulation was Manchukuo yuan, which was equivalent to the value of the yen, but if you want to buy something on the black market, you must trade with the ocean, and the value of the ocean on the black market is also quite high, so listening to the collision sound in the bag, he knows that there are 30 of them.

The guy swallowed his saliva, took the bag, and whispered, "The police have come and searched not only your room, but also the rooms of two other people." ”

Xing Renju's eyes widened deliberately: "I see, what are the other two people doing?" ”

The man thought about it for a long time, and then said: "One is a trader, and the other can't see it, anyway, the mysterious one is completely different from you, sir, have you done something......"

"Shhhhh I'm just offended, alas, thank you, little brother. ”

After Xing Renju finished speaking, he sent the guy out, and then closed the door, this time he was 100% sure that not only someone was eyeing him, but also using this young man, and even if he wanted to ask the young man again, the other party speculated.
