The charm of spy wars lies in the tricks of life

Chapter 67 July 1937, 3

1937, February 13th of the lunar calendar.

Gregorian calendar, March 3th. Thursday.

In the darkness and silence, Shen Liushu woke up very early.

My whole body ached, I lay on the table, my eyes wandering.

I don't know how many times I woke up that night.

Loneliness and desolation permeate my heart.
In the darkness, closing my eyes, all I see is white jade, a graceful figure about to die.

That warm and soft body slowly grew colder in his arms.

Pain, sorrow, and regret are like a golden silkworm gnawing at the flesh and blood of the heart.

I slept well last night when I was drunk, but tonight I can't sleep well.

4:15 in the morning.

The window is 20 centimeters high and wide, and a ray of moonlight is shining through.

Shen Liushu stood up and put aside his uncomfortable mood.

Thinking about some key information.

The first thing to confirm when going out is what Wei Xiong said to Xiang Ning after drinking.

"Xiao Xiang, I just came out of the director's office and you came in with a smile on your face. Did you get some good news? Did you go to claim the credit?" Wei Xiong asked with his tongue sticking out.

This sentence is very important!

Xiang Ning went to see Zhou Lisheng with a smile on his face, he must have discovered something.

Shen Liushu didn't know whether Wei Xiong had guessed it or not, but he guessed about 70% of it.

Xiang Ning made a mistake in the conference room two days ago, and he must find a way to turn the tables and win back a game.

Then if the Red Party seized the radio station, he would most likely have cracked it.

The second thing was that Miao Yu and Tang Jia came to visit me, which was unexpected, and there was definitely something wrong.

On the surface, Miao Yu was arranged by Zhou Lisheng to write about the incident of Shuangyue's kidnapping.

But I have to ask myself a crucial question: Was it me who saved Shuangyue? I haven't answered yet. Chen Cha, Wei Xiong, and Xiang Ning have messed things up.

The next meeting should have been for Zhou Lisheng to give himself an explanation, but they didn't have a chance to talk because Tang Jia interrupted the conversation.

Tang Jia came to see me, so he must have something to ask me?
The situation was disrupted by the sudden arrival of Miao Yu and Chen Cha.

So what exactly does Tang Jia want to know from me?
Shuangyue was robbed?

Impossible. This incident caused such a big stir that the First Department should have known about it long ago.

So what did she come to inquire about?

If you really can't think of it, then you have to think in a different way.

Why did she come to ask me for information while I was in solitary confinement?

It meant that she couldn't find out anything from outside, which also meant that Zhou Lisheng was in the Second Department, blocking the flow of information.

So what was the job of the people Wen Xiansi arrested yesterday? No one knows.

Regarding the progress of things in the Second Department, there is only one thing on the surface: Chen Da's interrogation.

Are they trying to find out about Chen Da's interrogation? Or are they trying to find out about the people Wen Xiansi has arrested?
Eliminate Chen Da’s interrogation situation again.

Because I was in solitary confinement, I had no idea.

Then the people that Wen Xiansi wanted to arrest can also be screened out.

Because I was in the confinement room, as the head of the general affairs department, I probably didn't know either.

So what is the reason?

Time passes quietly.

"Squeak."

A ray of light shone in from the crack in the door.

Shen Liushu originally thought that Su Wanwan was bringing him breakfast.

Looking closely, it was Zhou Lisheng with a calm expression, holding a thick document in his hand.

Zhou Lisheng looked at the dejected Shen Liushu and asked, "How were these two nights?"

Shen Liushu smiled carefree, but it wasn't the carefree smile he imagined, but rather one filled with decadence: "Same old."

Zhou Lisheng's expression remained unchanged as he stared at Shen Liushu, but his voice softened: "But I think you have something on your mind." "Nothing." Shen Liushu whispered.

"Really?"

"real."

Zhou Lisheng showed a guilty smile on his face: "She left, and that's it.

“It won’t affect your work!

“Since ancient times, heroes have been unable to resist the temptation of beautiful women, but the heroes who have overcome the temptation of beautiful women are the real heroes.

"To eliminate the hidden female spies of Japan, we need you to contribute to the Party and the country's fight against Japan."

Shen Liushu smiled bitterly and nodded respectfully: "Yes, Director. She is just a woman and will not affect the work."

Zhou Lisheng was silent for a while: "Killing two of the torture brothers is a relief.

"That's it, that's the end of it."

Shen Liushu looked at Zhou Lisheng and finally nodded: "Yes, Director."

"Take a look at this document," Zhou Lisheng said, throwing it onto the table. "A few days ago, I wanted you to shoulder some of my frontline field work, so let's start with this."

Shen Liushu opened the file and looked at it carefully. "This is the information of one hundred outstanding women. The director wants me to investigate them secretly and find the real Japanese female spies?"

Zhou Lisheng nodded: "Yes, this was screened by me, and there is a possibility that she is a female spy in Japan's "Total 365" plan."

"Why are only a hundred people screened out? Isn't that too few?" Shen Liushu asked doubtfully.

"There are still many more, and I will let others do them. What you need to do is to go through all these 100 people in a short period of time." Zhou Lisheng said in a low voice.

"Yes, Director. I will complete the task as soon as possible." Shen Liushu answered respectfully.

Seeing Shen Liushu's attitude, Zhou Lisheng took two steps, came to the small square window, and looked at the sky through the window.

“Liu Shu, in a few days, I will no longer be tracking down the Red Party.

“We need to make a complete and utter effort to eliminate the Japanese spies.

“Getting this right for future wars is what I want to do most.

“You must help me.

"If we do well and there's still time."

Having said this, Zhou Lisheng was silent for a while.

"If there's still time, let's take out the heads of the Special High Section of the Japanese Ministry of Internal Affairs in Shanghai."

Shen Liushu looked at Zhou Lisheng's back, and he could feel the pure murderous intent.

The killing intent towards Japanese spies! The killing intent towards the invaders!
The words were soft, but the will was extremely condensed.

It seemed like Zhou Lisheng had said this in his mind countless times.

But this time it came out of his mouth, and it was even the first time he said it out of his mouth.

A sense of respect and admiration ignited in my heart.

Zhou Lisheng turned his head and stared into Shen Liushu's eyes. He nodded slightly. He could resonate with Shen Liushu's determination to kill the Japanese.

"When I was a young student, I had the good fortune to hear a conversation between Mr. Sun Yat-sen and the great Kang Nanhai.

"Mr. Sun Wen appeared at the entrance of Wanmu Thatched Cottage, and his first words were: Doctor Sun Wen, nice to meet Mr. Kang.

"Kang Nanhai stuck his head out, took a quick look, then retracted it and said, 'No one here is sick.

"Everyone burst into laughter.

“This is because Mr. Sun Yat-sen called himself a doctor of medicine.

"Then the two of them expatiated on the question of whether he was sick or not.

"'You are sick!' Mr. Sun Yat-sen said this in a startling and resounding manner.

"Everyone asked Kang Nanhai: Are you sick? What's wrong with you?

"Liu Shu, do you know what Mr. Sun Wen answered?"

Shen Liushu took a step forward, his posture steady: "Mr. Sun said: The disease of ignorance is that the enslaved think they are free and have never known what equality is.

"I don't know how to love myself and I don't know how to love others. In a word, I don't know I am a slave."

Zhou Lisheng nodded and looked at Shen Liushu with admiration: "Kang Nanhai asked again: What is the root of the disease?
"Liu Shu, do you know how Mr. Sun answered?" The voice was deep and powerful.
