Chapter 437 Major General
"Furthermore, you must be aware of how special the prince's position is within the Special Higher Police."

"If the prince's identity is indeed Zhao Xuan, then our dream of restoring the Qing Dynasty may not be so far away."

Hua Xiaonuan also showed a genuine smile:

"Yes."

“I also feel like I’m dreaming, but he is my brother, because I tested him at the dinner table.”

“He knows my nickname, and even the pear blossom pendant is possible, but the little things we do when we're together are something no one else could possibly know. And when I tease my brother or when he acts cute towards me, he still does those little things. That's something that can't be faked.”

Hearing this, Lü Tianting was completely relieved.

"That's great. From now on, we won't be rootless duckweed in Shanghai anymore."

Guanghua Bookstore on Hankou Road, Shanghai.

Sun Jianzhong, who bought steamed buns and fried dough sticks for breakfast, also retrieved a piece of intelligence from the dead mailbox.

Back in the secret room at the back of the bookstore, Sun Jianzhong hurriedly took out the note.

Wang Shuyu looked on anxiously at the sight.

A moment later, Sun Jianzhong handed the note to Wang Shuyu with great surprise.

"Last night, Hua Xiaonuan from Zhenxingqi Society ran into her brother. Unexpectedly, Hua Xiaonuan's brother turned out to be the traitor Zhao Xuan!"

Wang Shuyu quickly snatched the intelligence report, and after reading it carefully, her expression became quite interesting.

"This is the intelligence that Huang Qian and that new person placed in two dead mailboxes. It can be confirmed that the intelligence is correct, but how could it be Zhao Xuan?"

"Moreover, it says here that Zhao Xuan secretly transported the national treasures from Zhabei Wharf and the International Cemetery and framed us for it."

Sun Jianzhong sat at the table, also stunned. After listening to Wang Shuyu's words, he slowly said:

"So, Hua Xiaonuan's brother is Zhao Xuan, Zhao Xuan is Chen Guang, and Chen Guang is our comrade!"

"Wait, Zhao Xuan is Chen Guang?!"

Just as Sun Jianzhong finished speaking, a knock on the door suddenly sounded.

Sun Jianzhong suddenly stood up, and Wang Shuyu also looked towards the door in shock.

The rhythm and code of this knocking are wrong!

One shock after another came, and Sun Jianzhong felt like he was having a nervous breakdown.

“Fisherwoman, Secretary Sun, Zhao will personally visit you.”

Upon hearing the sound, Wang Shuyu would have been so excited that she stood up, if it weren't for her leg problems.

"Uncle Sun, that's right, Comrade Chenguang is Zhao Xuan!"

Upon receiving Wang Shuyu's affirmation, Sun Jianzhong trembled slightly; it was incredibly exciting.

He never expected that Zhao Xuan would actually be Chen Guang.

If the facts weren't right in front of him, Sun Jianzhong would never have considered including Zhao Xuan in Chenguang's plans, no matter how hard he tried.

creak-

When the door to the secret room opened, Sun Jianzhong was a little confused because the person standing at the door was not Zhao Xuan.

However, Wang Shuyu laughed.

The Zhao Xuan she saw now was the same one who had disguised himself to meet her at the Miao family restaurant yesterday.

As Zhao Xuan entered, Sun Jianzhong closed the door to the secret room. Wang Shuyu looked at Zhao Xuan with a radiant smile and said:

"Comrade Chenguang, I never expected you to have hidden yourself so well, and I never expected your true identity to be..."

"Comrade Chenguang, please have a seat."

After Zhao Xuan sat down, he nodded to Sun Jianzhong, and then looked at Wang Shuyu:

"Comrade Fisherwoman, we agreed that when we meet again after this mission is completed, I will show you my true face. It's just that some missions happened to coincide."

After speaking, under the expectant gaze of Wang Shuyu and the tense yet expectant gaze of Sun Jianzhong, Zhao Xuan raised his hand and pulled off the nano headgear, revealing his true face.

Upon seeing that Chen Guang was indeed Zhao Xuan, Sun Jianzhong was overwhelmed with excitement.

Wang Shuyu felt somewhat embarrassed, after all, when she thought back, it seemed that she was the one who cursed Zhao Xuan the most, calling him a traitor, and she had even suggested killing Zhao Xuan several times.

Looking back now, Wang Shuyu was indeed in a very awkward position.

Seeing Wang Shuyu's complicated expression, Zhao Xuan smiled and said:

"What, you were looking forward to seeing me before, but now that you've seen me, you're disappointed? Or is it that Comrade Fisherwoman often curses me in private, and has even thought about getting rid of me several times?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Shuyu felt even more ashamed, and her pretty face instantly turned bright red.

"Secretary Sun, I've heard so much about you!"

Sun Jianzhong shook hands with Zhao Xuan with great excitement, and then Zhao Xuan extended his hand to Wang Shuyu:
"Comrade Fisherwoman, how have you been?"

Wang Shuyu quickly tidied her hair behind her ear and reached out to shake hands with Zhao Xuan:
"Comrade Zhao Xuan, my name is Wang Shuyu, you can just call me Shuyu."

"Okay, Comrade Shuyu."

Having revealed his identity, Zhao Xuan had no choice but to come.

Xia Gong has already approved Zhao Xuan's application, but only Sun Jianzhong and Wang Shuyu can know his identity. Xin and Huang Qian still need to keep it a secret, and the same goes for the others.

There was no way around it. Even if Zhao Xuan hadn't come this time, with so many coincidences coming together, Wang Shuyu and Sun Jianzhong could have guessed that Zhao Xuan, the head of the Special Higher Police's Intelligence Section, was none other than Chen Guang.

If they still couldn't guess this, then they wouldn't have been assigned by the organization to infiltrate Shanghai.

It can only be said that if Zhao Xuan wants to complete the process of recognizing Hua Xiaonuan as a relative and find the location of the last batch of national treasures, his identity will inevitably be exposed to Wang Shuyu and Sun Jianzhong.

Huang Qian, who was previously sent to Shanghai, was merely a prelude.

Huang Qian's role as a catalyst has now taken effect, guiding Hua Xiaonuan step by step to confirm Zhao Xuan's identity.

"Comrade Chenguang, I really didn't expect that you were Zhao Xuan. This is simply unbelievable!"

Zhao Xuan smiled and looked at Sun Jianzhong, saying:
"Secretary Sun, Lord Xia has agreed to let me meet with you."

"However, I would appreciate it if Shuyu and Secretary Sun could keep this a secret for me. For the time being, only you two can know my identity."

Sun Jianzhong nodded repeatedly:
"Of course, that's for sure. Chenguang, your identity is so special that, to be honest, I wouldn't want to know your true identity if things hadn't come to this point."

Sun Jianzhong was right, after all, Zhao Xuan was in direct contact with Xia Gong.

Moreover, his identity was so special that even when Sun Jianzhong actually faced Zhao Xuan, it felt like a dream.

Given Zhao Xuan's complicated background, Sun Jianzhong couldn't possibly believe that Chen Guang was Zhao Xuan.

But faced with the reality, Sun Jianzhong somewhat regretted knowing the outcome.

Knowing this result meant that no matter what, even at great cost, they had to help Chenguang remain safely in hiding.

The more you know, the greater your responsibility becomes.

Letting out a long breath, Sun Jianzhong looked at Zhao Xuan and said:

"Comrade Chenguang, if you have any requests in the future, please contact us as soon as possible, and we will do everything we can to help you."

Zhao Xuan nodded slightly; this was one of the purposes of his visit.

In a place like Shanghai, there are only so many things one person can accomplish on their own. Take this transfer of national treasures, for example. Without the help of Song Yuanyuan's family and the Ghost Team, Zhao Xuan alone could never have moved the items out so quickly.

And then there's Dao Ya. Without Dao Ya, even if Zhao Xuan obtained these national treasures, he wouldn't know where they were kept.

"There's another reason I came here."

"I'm about to leave Shanghai."

Zhao Xuan mentioned this to Wang Shuyu yesterday.

Hearing this again, Wang Shuyu was still quite curious, while Sun Jianzhong was even more astonished:

"What? Comrade Chenguang, what happened?"

Wang Shuyu frowned slightly and asked:

"Was this arranged by Aizawa Keiko? How long will she be gone?"

Zhao Xuan nodded:

"It was indeed arranged by the Japanese."

"However, this is also a good thing. I will lead the epidemic prevention supervision team north to Harbin to urge the Shijing troops to destroy the virus samples that appeared in Sheshan and seal all research data."

Upon hearing this, Sun Jianzhong's expression changed drastically:

"Comrade Chenguang, are you referring to the epidemic prevention water supply station on the outskirts of Harbin?"

Seeing Zhao Xuan nod, Wang Shuyu and Sun Jianzhong both looked worried.

"Comrade Chenguang, you should know the basic situation of the epidemic prevention water supply station."

"Many of the comrades in the organization who were in the north went there to investigate the epidemic prevention water supply station and never returned."

"Not only us, but the Military Intelligence Bureau also suffered great losses from above."

Zhao Xuan said with a smile:

"Don't worry, this time it's the Japanese cabinet that's in charge. I'm going there to urge them to destroy the virus and seal up research data of this kind."

"I will take this opportunity to find out what's going on inside."

"I'll go myself. It's more likely to succeed and safer than sending other comrades."

Sun Jianzhong nodded. Given Zhao Xuan's current status, he was indeed the most suitable candidate.

Wang Shuyu bit her red lips, hesitated for a moment, and then asked:

"Chenguang, how long are you going to be gone?"

Zhao Xuan shook his head:

"The timing is still uncertain, but I think it won't be long. After all, it's just a reminder, and there are cabinet documents, so I don't think there will be any trouble."

"However, I won't be able to get involved in things here in Shanghai after I leave this time, so you need to be extremely careful with your actions."

"Especially the top secret group that No. 76 is going to form, you all know how difficult the people from Zhenxingqi Society are to deal with."

"The formation of the Special Secret Group was specifically aimed at our Party comrades who had infiltrated Shanghai."

Wang Shuyu smiled and said:

"Don't worry, Uncle Sun and I will take good care of it."

"By the way, you should know about Dao Yan, the head of the 76th Telecommunications Section, who's in the Military Intelligence Bureau, right, Chen Guang?"

Zhao Xuan glanced at Wang Shuyu, then smiled and nodded:
"I know, don't worry, I will find a way to bring Ayan into our party. Also, this is a party membership application."

Sun Jianzhong took it with some curiosity, and when he saw that the applicant was Dao Ya, his breathing became heavy:

"Dao Ya!"

“That’s right. Xiaoya has always known my identity and has always admired our party.”

"At the same time, because of Ayan, Xiaoya is now also a member of the Military Intelligence Bureau. So, Secretary Sun, Shuyu, you should understand how important Xiaoya is, right?"

Wang Shuyu nodded repeatedly, her eyes shining:

"That's great. Now I understand many of the issues. No wonder Miss Daoya has been so accommodating when we buy things from the black market several times."

"Moreover, Miss Daoya—no, Comrade Daoya—is truly audacious! She maintains close business ties with our Party, and some of our Party's tungsten ore is used to exchange for weapons and medical supplies with Comrade Daoya."

"Most importantly, Comrade Daoya can actually deliver the goods to my door."

Sun Jianzhong then said with a smile:

"Comrade Chenguang, this application to join the Party has been a great help. If it weren't for what happened today, the organization would have decided to let us try to see if we could recruit Dao Ya into our comrade."

"It's true that during this period of time, thanks to Comrade Dao Ya, our Party's various base areas behind enemy lines have undergone a complete transformation. The organization has also realized how much Comrade Dao Ya has helped us, so it decided to have us secretly contact Dao Ya to see if we could bring her into our camp."

"Now that I have this application to join the Party, I have already completed the important task assigned to me by the organization before I have even done anything!"

Zhao Xuan laughed upon hearing this:

"Xiaoya is indeed incredibly bold, but she has the confidence to back it up."

Yes, with Dao Ya's backing, her uncle is the chief of the 76th Special Operations Unit, her sister is the head of the 76th Special Operations Unit's communications section, and her brother-in-law is the head of the Special Higher Police's intelligence section. Her network of connections in the French Concession is also very extensive. The old factory area is guarded by troops dispatched by the Military Police Headquarters, and she also has an unclear relationship with the Japanese Navy.

With such powerful backing, who in the entire Shanghai dares to touch them?!

"Alright, it's getting late, I should be going. If I have any plans while I'm away from Shanghai, I'll have Lin Jieru contact you."

"As for Ayan, don't worry. Xiaoya and I are here. How can she run away?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Jianzhong burst into laughter, and Wang Shuyu also looked at Zhao Xuan with a smile.

However, Wang Shuyu felt a pang of sadness and jealousy.

After leaving Guanghua Bookstore, Zhao Xuan did not go to exchange with Master Niu.

Compared to heading north to Harbin, Zhao Xuan now most wants to go to Nanjing.

Dao Yan, Dao Ya, Miao Xue, Ma Shangcheng, and Nan Ting all went to Nanjing, but there has been no news of them for so long.

Ding Moqun's plan failed, but Wang Da still showed no intention of letting Dao Yan return. Therefore, Zhao Xuan had no choice but to go and see what was going on.

So after leaving Guanghua Bookstore, Zhao Xuan went straight to the train station.

Meanwhile, Wusong Road Special Higher Police Department.

Having gained nothing from Ding Moqun, Tojo Hideo was standing beside Aizawa Keiko and Ida Koji.

All members of the Special Higher Police (THP) gathered in the auditorium, where Koji Ida announced with a broad smile the Cabinet's affirmation of the THP's work and the appointment of Zhao Xuan.

Hideo Tojo's face was extremely gloomy, a stark contrast to the smiling faces of Keiko Aizawa and Koji Ida.

Now, Hideo Tojo truly understands what it means to lose everything with just one wrong step.

His father had laid out a smooth path for him, but Tojo Hideo just couldn't resist stirring things up.

In the end, he not only gained nothing but also ruined the path his father had laid out for him.

On the platform, Koji Ida said with a smile:

"Now, let's congratulate Zhao Sang and invite him to the stage!!!"
