My girlfriend is from 1949

This time, the feeling was clearly different from before.

Although he would deliberately ignore me before and say some scary things.

But as a veteran spy, he knew the interrogation process better than anyone.

Therefore, it can be immediately determined that it is just applying psychological pressure.

They wouldn't actually do anything to themselves.

And as it turned out, nothing really happened during the days he was detained.

But this time, something was clearly amiss.

The other party's attitude was too firm.

It seems that one can really determine their identity based on this report.

Moreover, regardless of whether they admit it or not, they will treat it as if they are Xu Hongchuan.

The result is that whether you confess or not, you will be convicted and even executed.

Xu Hongchuan's eyes widened, a question flashing through his mind: Isn't it said that we shouldn't treat human life lightly?

But judging from the way they were acting, it didn't seem like they were just putting on a show to scare people.

Based on decades of experience as a secret agent and his intuition that allowed him to escape danger countless times.

It feels like this time, it's not just a bluff, but something serious!

I couldn't help but believe that so-called appraisal report to some extent.

In times of crisis, one wrong step can lead to utter ruin.

Therefore, they are constantly weighing and analyzing the current situation.

Although this report failed to break down their psychological defenses.

But it tore open a crack, a crack of doubt.

In such a life-or-death situation, this avenue of doubt will continue to widen.

Once you reach the critical point, you'll feel afraid.

If the suspicion is confirmed, it could cost you your life.

Xu Hongchuan quickly weighed the options in his mind, and couldn't help but think of his wife and children.

The opportunity to meet had deeply touched my heart.

For a moment, a hint of hesitation flashed in his eyes.

After all, the current situation is different from that during the War of Resistance against Japan.

If I had been captured by the Special Higher Police or the 76th Division and cooperated with them to defect, I would have become a traitor and would have been condemned.

Even future generations cannot hold their heads high.

But if they cooperate and give an explanation now, it can at most be considered an internal conflict.

When they regain their freedom in the future, they will be Chinese people who can hold their heads high.

So without this hurdle, I felt much less conflicted and resistant.

In particular, the cooperation of another high-ranking official had already made considerable contributions, which made him tempted.

If the other party has indeed confirmed their identity, the trial should be conducted using Xu Hongchuan's identity.

There's no point in continuing like this.

Moreover, having witnessed so much of the dirty work within the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, he couldn't help but worry that the other party might use him as a scapegoat for meritorious service!

With a combination of factors, the will to survive prevailed.

He paused just as he was about to step out of the interrogation room.

He stood motionless at the doorway.

Tian Guorong raised an eyebrow, a hint of joy flashing in his eyes.

However, there was no urging, for fear that a wrong word might scare the person away.

He simply waved his hand, signaling the two escorting soldiers not to rush him.

Xu Hongchuan's expression changed several times before he slowly turned around.

He gritted his teeth and asked, "If I cooperate, can I really regain my freedom?"

He was like a deflated balloon, all his energy gone.

Because asking that question is tantamount to acknowledging one's identity.

All that's left is gambling.

It's a gamble that the other party will keep their promise and won't go back on their word.

Tian Guorong nodded slightly and replied seriously, "As long as you cooperate actively, I guarantee you will receive a reduced punishment and regain your freedom one day!"

This isn't a scam; according to the policy, it's true that you can earn merit.

Just like the one who cooperated with us before, after the spies were eliminated, and after some twists and turns, he regained his freedom.

I hope you will keep your promise!

Xu Hongchuan gritted his teeth and finally let go.

In fact, the moment you turn around, whether you admit it or not, it's equivalent to acknowledging your identity.

All they wanted was better treatment.

"Don't worry, I guarantee I'll report every single word of your cooperation!"

Tian Guorong nodded solemnly in agreement, and said with a smile, "Then can we sit down and have a proper chat now?"

Xu Hongchuan didn't speak, but his act of turning around and sitting back in his chair showed that he was willing to cooperate.

With the cooperation of this top spy, eliminating enemy agents became much easier.

Moreover, Xu Hongchuan was also aware that he still had leverage.

If this drags on any longer, and all those lurking subordinates are captured, then I will lose my value.

By then, there won't be another chance to make a contribution.

Rather than handing over subordinates to others to achieve merit, it's better to make it your own!

Xu Hongchuan made the decision to cooperate and no longer concealed the truth.

The identity of the person who voluntarily logged off and their contact information were clearly explained.

This also includes three well-equipped and highly trained action teams!

If the three squads were allowed to cause sabotage, it would result in incalculable losses.

However, with Xu Hongchuan's cooperation, they had no choice but to surrender.

Of course, there is another way: to be stubborn and get killed!

It took two whole hours to finish explaining.

Tian Guorong held the transcript, a look of joy in his eyes.

"Thank you for your cooperation, Station Chief Xu. We'll take you back to your detention cell. Please ask the canteen to add a few pieces of braised pork for lunch."

"Yes, sir!" Two soldiers escorted Xu Hongchuan out of the interrogation room with heavy steps.

Chen Huai'an glanced at the interrogation record and was also quite surprised by the dense list of undercover agents.

They inquired, "Do you think this big spy is still hiding anything?"

Lin Wan said with a smile, "A high-ranking spy like him wouldn't cooperate without reservation. He definitely has other secrets he's waiting to bargain with us."

Tian Guorong nodded in agreement: "That's right, this statement is just his pledge of allegiance; there are deeper secrets waiting for us to uncover."

He then waved the notebook in his hand: "One must take things one step at a time. Let's arrest these spies first."

Chen Huai'an nodded slightly and pondered for a moment, then said, "However, I think that if the news of Xu Hongchuan's arrest is still kept secret, we can keep it a secret for the time being!"

It can both uncover his secrets and be used as bait.

Taiwan won't give up so easily.

Even decades from now, they will not give up their infiltration and sabotage against us.

"Keep him alive; he might be able to lure out the big fish sent by Taiwan!"

Tian Guorong nodded in agreement: "Your idea is good, worth a try!"

As long as the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics is unaware that Xu Hongchuan has been arrested, they will continue to trust him.

Who knows, they might come in very handy at a crucial moment!

Just as the three were talking, a young man in a Zhongshan suit strode in.

The person who came was Xiao Zhang, a staff member working for Zheng Changlin.

Upon entering, he immediately said, "Comrade Chen, Comrade Lin, Director Zheng requests that you go to Longhua Town immediately."

Chen Huai'an asked疑惑地问道, "What important matter is there to discuss at the base?"

Xiao Zhang nodded slightly: "Director Zheng said it's about the land."

"This means... a decision has been made?" Chen Huai'an raised an eyebrow, a look of joy on his face.

He urged impatiently, "Let's go, let's go back to Longhua Town!"
