The morning is bright and clear, and the cold breeze is blowing.

After a heavy snowfall, inside and outside Changchun City, there is already a world covered in silver.

At the door of the old Shengxiang grocery store on the west side of the Guandi Temple, the shopkeeper Sun Sanlu used an iron shovel to clear the snow in front of the store.

"Third uncle, I haven't seen you for many days, have you always been good?" Song Tianmeng, a postman, pushed his bicycle to the front of the store.

"Ahh Didn't I hear you went out? When did you come back? Sun Sanlu put down the shovel and slapped the snowflakes on it, "Come and talk in the house, you asked me to get a record player, I got you ......"

The two entered the storefront.

This is a three-bay storefront, with bright windows and clean dust. There was a table of eight immortals made of wenge wood in front of the counter, Song Tianmeng sat down, poured out a cup of tea from the teapot by himself, and drank it slowly.

After a while, from the counter, Sun Sanlu took out a middle-aged man in a gray cotton robe, tall and thin, wearing glasses.

Song Tianmeng was stunned: "...... are you?"

"Friend, I want to ask you to help me bring a letter to my family, I don't know if it's okay?" The man's face was yellow, and his lips were purple.

Song Tianmeng could hear that this was the organization's joint code: "If your family is in the city, I can help, if you want to go out of the city, I will forgive you." ”

"It just so happens that my family is in Nanguan Hutong, please help." The man continued.

"This is my personal job, you have to give me the runway fee, otherwise I won't go." Song Tianmeng continued to answer.

"Fifty bucks, okay?" As he spoke, the man took out half a fifty-denomination Manchukuo Yuan and placed it on the table of the Eight Immortals.

Song Tianmeng also took out half a 50-denomination Manchukuo Yuan banknote from his pocket, placed it flat on the table, and compared it with the half banknote, which was just a complete 50 yuan coin.

"Hello - comrade, I'm a traffic officer, Xiao Song." Song Tianmeng stood up and shook the man's hand.

"Hello, Comrade Xiao Song. I am Huang Hao, who was appointed by the province to strengthen the Changchun branch, and it is a pleasure to meet with you. Huang Hao took Song Tianmeng's hand.

"A while ago, I went to the provincial party committee to submit information, but I didn't see you?"

"Ah, hehe, I was transferred from the Goubangzi Railway Branch, and I didn't stay in the Provincial Party Committee, so you naturally don't know me.

"Oh, what did I say...... Look at you like a teacher. Fortunately, you will be my leader from now on. Song Tianmeng always felt a chill in his heart for some reason, especially when he shook hands with Huang Hao.

"Please inform Comrade No. 713 of the branch that I have arrived in Xinjing." Huang Hao put away the half of the Manchukuo Yuan again.

Song Tianmeng did the same, while putting away the half of the banknote, he looked at Huang Hao, who looked like a teacher......

"I'm going to meet with 713 as soon as possible. Not only do I need to get to work immediately, but I also need to report to him on an urgent matter, so please inform him as soon as possible. ”

(Comrade No. 713 refers to Nalan Songhan, the head of the Changchun branch, also known as the Xinjing branch.) ）

"Comrade Huang Hao, are you here by train? How long did you ride in the car? It's been a hard ride, isn't it? ”

"Oh...... Yes, by train and how long...... It's about less than two days......" Huang Hao replied, his eyes wandered a little wandering, and he looked at the wall clock on the side wall inside the counter.

"Ah...... In this way, let Uncle Sun arrange a place to live for you, and I will report to Comrade No. 713 through my upline, and when it is arranged, I will come here to inform Uncle Sun. Song Tianmeng pretended to be calm and said.

"Then you have to do it as soon as possible, we communists must not slack off at all for the revolutionary cause." Huang Hao said sincerely.

"Okay, please wait for my news." With that, Song Tianmeng turned around and walked out.

He rode his bicycle and ran towards the east side of the Guandi Temple, and he always had a feeling of uneasiness in his heart along the way, but he couldn't say why, if he said that he was assigned by his superiors to strengthen the strength of the branch, there was nothing suspicious; It doesn't take so long to take the train from Goubangzi to Xinjing, there are obvious mud stains on the edges of his trousers and leather soles, where did the mud come from on the train, not to mention that it has just snowed for a day and a night in Changchun, why doesn't he tell the truth? And with his arrival, the organization will naturally dock according to the procedure, and he doesn't need to worry so much about it as a traffic officer, and he doesn't need to say such things to a traffic officer, he still urgently asks to see Comrade 713, there are too many doubts here...... Just as he was thinking about it, someone grabbed his clothes from the side, and when he was stunned, he almost fell off the car, and hurriedly shook his foot and forked the car, and turned sideways to see that it was his classmate - Lu Songmian.

"Song Tianmeng, what are you doing? Why do you look dumbfounded every time I see you? The pink cashmere coat sets off Lu Songmian in the snow so delicate and handsome.

"Who am I talking about, what else can I do? Send a letter, like you, a lady, you can do whatever you want. Song Tianmeng muttered.

"What's the matter, it's uncomfortable to listen to. Please......

"You eldest lady, do you still have something to ask me? Kid me. Song Tianmeng was a little dazed.

"Really, it's snowing so hard that my uncle Zhan said that the car can't be driven. I don't want to walk anymore, you can take me to the police station with your bike! Lu Songmian said and went straight to the back seat of the car and sat down.

"Miss, I still have something to do, so you might as well spare me. If I drop you, I can't afford to blame you. Song Tianmeng said this, but he pedaled his bicycle again, and walked slowly along the street where there was little snow, "Why are you going to work there?" ”

"No, mine was originally in Datong College, and then I went to medical university. I'm not interested in what to do. ”

"So what do you do? Oh...... By the way, I heard that you are engaged to a deputy director of the National Police Agency surnamed Lu? Isn't it an old man? ”

"you, who do you hear chew his tongue and call him an old man? My fiancé is a big handsome guy! Lu Songmian said proudly.

"I thought I could climb to the position of deputy director, how can I be younger?"

"You, underestimate people."

"What's wrong with not underestimating people? Doesn't the National Police Agency also listen to the Japanese? What is the difference with a traitor? ”

"You...... How is it hard to speak? My Uncle Yu and Uncle Nalan are not good people? Hmph - I don't think so, as long as he doesn't do things that hurt nature and reason, he is not a bad person, and what kind of adultery you say. ”

"I'm too lazy to bother with you, there's really no place to reason these days. When we were studying in Linhe Middle School, you were like a crazy girl, and in the second year you were transferred to the girls' middle school, who knew that you had a princess-like beauty over the years. I remember when you got married, you had to invite me to a wedding drink......"

When the two were walking and chatting, Song Tianmeng suddenly saw Zhao Ou walking hurriedly on the side of the street wearing a blue cotton coat.

"You go down, Miss, I won't send you, you can walk a little longer. I'm in a hurry. As he spoke, he stopped the car and shouted at Zhao Ou, who was crossing the street, "Beard-beard-"

"Hey, you dead Song Tianmeng! You wait, let the head of my Lu Hall clean you up-" Lu Songmian, who was angry, pouted and watched Xiao Song push his bicycle across the road......
