On the afternoon of July 15, the French Concession.

Wang Tianmu was still dressed as usual, wearing a gray top hat, and came to a secret residence in the French Concession.

This is the second day of returning to Shanghai from Beiping, adhering to the principle of cunning rabbit three holes, he will not easily stay at home for a long time, one is to avoid danger to his family, and the other is for safety reasons.

As the deputy head of the North China Region of the Military Command Bureau and a senior leader of the field organization, the headquarters of the bureau has already informed him of the news of Chen Mingchu's defection.

Chen Mingchu, a subordinate who had always been optimistic, actually defected to the enemy after being arrested and confessed the secrets of Shanghai City, which led to the destruction of 14 secret contact points, and he even understood the other party's choice.

Wang Tianmu originally wanted to recommend Chen Mingchu as the deputy head of Shanghai City and assist him in doing a good job in Shanghai City, but he did not expect that he would be unable to protect himself, and he was defeated in the internal tilt of Shanghai City, and was removed from the position of district head by Boss Dai and turned into the deputy head of North China.

He and Chen Mingchu both have a common enemy, that is, the acting district head Zhao Lijun, Chen Mingchu did not become the deputy district head because of Zhao Lijun's opposition, and the hatred for Zhao Lijun in his heart can be imagined.

This person's ability is limited, but he has a strong desire for power, and his means are even more despicable and shameless.

"Qingqi Zhongzuo, the following person is Wang Tianmu, the backbone of the Military Control Bureau, Dai Li's descendant of the beloved general, some time ago he once served as the head of the Shanghai City, because of the internal tilt, he is now the deputy head of the North China Region of the Military Control Bureau, and he holds the secrets of the entire Pingjin and North China latent network, and his value to us is very high." Li Shiqun stood next to the window and said with a smile to Qingqi Qingyin.

"I know this person, how did you find out about him?" Qingqi Qingyin was curious.

Li Shiqun called him and invited him to come here to watch an arrest of an important target of the Military Control Bureau, and he readily agreed.

"It is Chen Mingchu who just surrendered to us, providing an important clue, this person was very familiar with Wang Tianmu before, and he has mastered his situation, I have always thought that Chen Mingchu's value has yet to be developed, after asking this information, let Chen Mingchu take people to action."

"Chen Mingchu and Lin Zhijiang sent people to set up a monitoring point around Wang Tianmu's residence, and found that he came back yesterday, Chen Mingchu concluded that he was coming here, so he arranged it in advance, and waited for him to enter the palm of our hand." Li Shiqun said with a smile.

"Very good, you can discover the value of Chen Mingchu, catch such an important person in the Military Command Bureau, this carefulness is stronger than Ding Mocun, the last arrest failed, he seemed very frustrated, did not continue to dig into Chen Mingchu's potential, in terms of professional ability, there is still a big gap between him and you." Qingqi Qingyin nodded and said.

Ding Mocun is thin and thin, his face is a little cold, he doesn't have a good impression of such a person, but Li Shiqun is different, with a white and chubby smile, it looks easy to contact, so he prefers to associate with Li Shiqun.

Although he didn't find anything abnormal, Wang Tianmu's intuition as a professional agent still made him feel the danger coming, and he was just about to turn around and leave, when four people came around, he had no way out, and then saw Chen Mingchu with a smile on his face, and immediately understood what was going on.

"When I was in Shanghai, I was very kind to you, why didn't you betray me with your old feelings?" Wang Tianmu did not take any means of resistance.

"District Chief, I am for your own good, it is precisely because you are good to me that I can't bear to see you continue to be squeezed out by people like Zhao Lijun. At present, the mountain city government is suppressed by the Japanese army in the southwest, and it is not certain how long it can last, so why should the district mayor work hard for such a government? Chen Mingchu said.

After Wang Tianmu was arrested, a car sent him to No. 76.

Li Shiqun, who came later, did not torture him to extract a confession, nor did he ask for any information about the urban area of Shanghai, but first set up a table of banquets and hospitality.

Dingmo Village Office.

"Brother, this Li Shiqun quietly caught Wang Tianmu to No. 76, you are the boss of the spy organization, such an action actually didn't greet you in advance, he didn't take you seriously." Ding Mocun's younger brother Ding Shijun said.

"Don't talk nonsense, Shiqun still respects me very much, since I am the boss of No. 76, as my deputy, no matter how much credit he makes, he also has my share, in the eyes of others, I am a good leader. You stare at the point, tell me if there is any news. Ding Mocun said.

He naturally knew Wang Tianmu's name, Dai Li's confidant general, and it was indeed unreasonable to arrest such a person and not say hello to him in advance.

But this spy organization was created by Li Shiqun, and the strength of the other party is much greater than his own, so he can't contradict Li Shiqun at this time. But as the boss, he has a natural advantage, although Li Shiqun went to arrest people and rebelled, wouldn't it be more affordable for him to bring these people over in the back?

Ding Mocun can get mixed with Dai Li and Xu Enzeng at the same level as Dai Li and Xu Enzeng in the Shancheng government, and it is by no means a simple role, this is still available in the city government, and the words of his younger brother Ding Shijun cannot be said to be unreasonable, but after all, he has never been mixed in officialdom, he is too young.

In the evening, Han Lin was talking to Tang Ying in the office, when a phone call came in, and the intelligence station transferred the latest information, and Wang Tianmu was arrested.

According to Han Lin's thoughts, this Wang Tianmu revealed the intelligence network of the Military Command Bureau in the north because of his indiscriminate suspicions, causing the entire northern intelligence network of the Military Command Bureau to be wiped out, and it was not restored for a long time.

Hundreds of lurking agents of the military command were arrested, and more than half of them were killed by the Japanese.

"Have you ever considered living in a mountain town? With the changes in the international situation, countries are going to be involved in wars one after another, and this is not a place to stay for a long time. Han Lin put down the microphone and said.

"I'm used to living in Shanghai, and I don't want to go to the mountain city, and I've heard that there are Japanese planes dropping bombs every once in a while in this wartime capital, at least in the concession area, there is no such danger." Tang Ying shook his head and said.

"Okay, then it depends on the development of the situation, and when it starts to deteriorate, I will move your family to the mountain city." Han Lin said.

The Pacific War broke out early, and it was indeed more comfortable to stay in the concession area than in the mountain town, at least there was no need to be frightened, and I didn't know when the bomb would fall on my head. Moreover, the environment of the mountain city can definitely not be compared with the concession area.

She is a character who likes to be lively and likes to socialize, otherwise she would not be called a courtesan, she is used to the social occasions of the concession, and she will be invited to participate in any event held by the consulates of various countries, the Ministry of Industry of the Public Concession, and the Public Board of Directors of the French Concession.

Loquat Mountain Dai Mansion.

Dai Li looked at the newly sent message, and immediately frowned, Wang Tianmu was actually arrested, the largest field agency of the Military Control Bureau, the acting district head Zhao Lijun is evading pursuit, Wang Tianmu has an accident, this has to hurry up to select the right district head, and restore the situation.

So, he thought of Chen Gongshu.
