Heroes of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 430
Lin Zhengjiang was lurking in Shanghai and working for the U.S. Naval Intelligence Agency.In addition to the special tasks assigned temporarily, he usually patrols the various docks along the Huangpu River and secretly observes the Japanese warships moored there.

Lin Zhengjiang's work was very easy because the Japanese warships in the dispatched army to China were small in number and tonnage.

He lived with Fang Ma, a woman who had fled to Shanghai, and Lin Zhengjiang lived in the house. If nothing happened, he would teach Fang Ma's four-year-old son Amao to read and write at home.

Fang's mother is actually only in her early twenties, a girl from a water village in the south of the Yangtze River, delicate, gentle and diligent.

People who didn't know the details thought it was a family of three.

Lin Zhengjiang turned from the Huangpu River to Gordon Road, and today's affairs are considered to be over.

It's winter and it's cold and damp in the house, Lin Zhengjiang would rather bask outside in the sun than go back home.

His two feet walked involuntarily to a second-hand bookstore on Gordon Road.

When the Kuomintang withdrew, a large number of dignitaries and cultural figures discarded a large number of collected books, and these books appeared one after another in various second-hand bookstores in Shanghai.

He has been to this second-hand bookstore on Gordon Road several times and bought some rare and good books at very cheap prices.

Lin Zhengjiang walked back and forth outside the bookstore twice with his hands in his pockets and turned back into the second-hand bookstore after not finding anything unusual.

The used bookstore was deserted and deserted, with no customers at all.

Lin Zhengjiang walked to the front of the bookshelf and looked at the old books on it.

Surprisingly, he picked up a copy of "Dream of Red Mansions" written by Qi Xu, turned around and asked, "Boss, how do you sell this copy of "Dream of Red Mansions?"

When he came in from Lin Zhengjiang, he just grinned at him, and then the boss, who had been standing like a wooden clay sculpture, smiled and replied to Lin Zhengjiang: "Sir, if you see this book, it is fate. If you give 50 yuan All right."

"So cheap? Since that's the case, I won't bargain." Lin Zhengjiang said.

His foot hooked suddenly, and a chair in the bookstore jumped up.Lin Zhengjiang grasped the back of the chair with both hands and turned towards the window with all his strength.

Just when the chair hit the window and the glass broke, four people rushed in from the back room and the door of the bookstore at the same time.

Lin Zhengjiang made a gesture to rush towards the broken window, but in the middle of the process he turned sharply and rushed towards the two people rushing out from the back room.

There must be someone ambushing outside, and rushing out at this time must be dead.

Lin Zhengjiang had been to this second-hand bookstore several times before, and he knew that there was a window in the back room, and it should be safer to escape through that window.

Lin Zhengjiang rushed forward and at the same time punched a person who was rushing towards him.The person hurriedly dodged sideways, and Lin Zhengjiang rushed between the two of them.

The other person turned around and grabbed Lin Zhengjiang, his movements slowed down a step and his fingers slid across his shoulder.

Lin Zhengjiang rushed into the back room of the bookstore like a gust of wind.Sitting on a chair in the middle of the narrow back room was a face that Lin Zhengjiang was familiar with and couldn't be more familiar with!
Just when Lin Zhengjiang was taken aback, the person who had been squatting in ambush by the door picked up a wooden stick and hit Lin Zhengjiang on the bone below his knees!

Lin Zhengjiang, who was rushing forward, suddenly fell to the ground.

"what!"

Although the pain was so bad that he almost got over it, Lin Zhengjiang still put his hands on the ground and tried hard to get up.

Another person who was ambushing next to him jumped on him.

Lin Zhengjiang turned over and wanted to push that person down, but the person who knocked him to the ground also threw himself on top of him, and the two pressed him firmly to the ground.

Lin Zhengjiang gritted his teeth and was still struggling desperately.At this time, four people from outside also rushed in, holding Lin Zhengjiang's hands and feet respectively.

"Don't waste your efforts, you were taught by me, how could you escape from my grasp?" said the gentle man in his fifties who had been sitting safely on the chair.

Lin Zhengjiang stopped struggling and reluctantly raised his head to stare at that person and asked in a mocking tone: "Should I call you Brother Wang or Commissioner Wang of the Purge Committee?"

Lin Zhengjiang and the person sitting on the chair have one thing in common. When they speak, they both obviously speak with a northeast accent.

The man stood up and walked in front of Lin Zhengjiang and said, "Of course it's Brother Wang. If I didn't treat you as a brother, I wouldn't be here today."

"Number 76 already knows that you have returned to Shanghai. If I don't arrest you first, you will die!" The man continued.

Lin Zhengjiang didn't speak but just stared at that person.

"These people in the room were all from the military command in the past. I brought them here specially today. They are all brothers. I also know that you work for the Americans, but you should never come back to Shanghai. Now that you are back Just follow me, I promise you nothing will happen to you." The man said slowly.

"I escaped from the Northeast just because I didn't want to be a subjugated slave! Brother Wang, if he sees the love of his fellow countrymen, he will kill me now and don't make me guilty!" Lin Zhengjiang said forcefully.

"There is a saying that feng shui turns, and even a good man can't suffer from immediate losses! Why bother, no matter whether the Japanese will last for a long time in the future, they must first save their own little life! Even if you die, no one will regard you as a hero , will only treat you as a fool!" The man knelt down and persuaded.

"It doesn't matter, as long as I have a clear conscience!" Lin Zhengjiang replied.

There was silence in the room, and several people looked at the man in his fifties, waiting for him to make up his mind.

The man stood up slowly and ordered: "You two get up, everyone let go of him!"

Everyone didn't move as if they didn't understand.

"Let him go!" the man said emphatically.

The two people who were pressing on Lin Zhengjiang got up, and the other four let go of Lin Zhengjiang's hands and feet.

Lin Zhengjiang struggled to get up and looked at the man at a loss.

The man turned his eyes to the window and said, "Go before I change my mind!"

But was it a trap, Lin Zhengjiang knew that now was his only chance to escape.

He pushed open the window, put his hands on the window sill, and rolled out.

"Brother, just let him go. What if he is caught by No. 76 and he confesses to us?" a person asked.

"It doesn't matter. Didn't most of those people in No. 76 also come from the military command? They also understand some things. You can't do anything too much. If you do too much, it will be difficult to meet each other." The man said.

"You don't have to worry, I will tell Mr. Zhou about this when I go back. You all remember, it's hard to turn back after getting too much blood on your hands. To be a human being, you must be affectionate and righteous! To be affectionate to others is to be affectionate to yourself !” said the man at last.

Lin Zhengjiang jumped out of the window and ran limping in the alley. He ran a few steps and looked back, but no one was chasing him. Turning around, he ran out of the alley again.
