Espionage codename: Shen Gongbao

Chapter 14 Manager Du

Inside the pharmacy and the consultation room.

Du Song glanced outside and instructed the waiter, "Xiao Liu, I'll take the customer's pulse first. You keep an eye on business."

"Okay, boss," replied the young waiter, Xiao Liuzi.

"Is it reliable?" Wang Xuesen asked.

"He's reliable. He's my nephew. I raised him myself, and he's practically my own son. Besides, my site only communicates with you through a single channel."

"As long as I don't expose myself, there will be no risk."

Duspine laughed.

"I'm asking you." Wang Xuesen stared at him coldly.

"You can rest assured about that. I was always stationed in the Red Zone back then. Apart from Boss Dai and Jia Jinnan, no one in the Military Intelligence Bureau knew about my existence." Du Song was satisfied with his vigilance.

"You and your brother, oh, you and Xuewen, really look alike."

"After going around in circles, I have a feeling of returning to the Chicken and Goose Alley days."

"But back then, our enemy was the red vote."

"Now it's the Japanese and the Wang Jingwei regime."

He looked at Wang Xuesen and sighed.

"Manager Du, let's get down to business."

"Wang Tianmu has been released by Li Shiqun. Li Shiqun's plan was simple: follow him and lure him into a corner, forcing Wang Tianmu to return to No. 76. You need to inform the boss as soon as possible to cut off the Shanghai members' contact with Wang."

Wang Xuesen spoke very quickly.

"Don't worry about that, most of the members have already been evacuated."

"After Chen Mingchu's defection, the Kuomintang's roots in Shanghai were destroyed by the Japanese. The boss has decided to rebuild the Kuomintang's team in Shanghai."

"The new district head should arrive soon."

"Is there anything you need me to pass on to the boss?"

Du Song asked.

"Dingmo Village is now a crumbling shell. I need to establish a foothold in No. 76 as quickly as possible before he gets completely gone."

"Otherwise, if Li Shiqun gains absolute power, we will find it impossible to move an inch."

"Furthermore, I want to use this as a pretext to recruit Wang Tianmu to work for me at No. 76."

"The 76th Division is currently divided into the CC Clique, the Mansion Clique, and the Military Intelligence Bureau traitors. They are left without support, and many are not truly loyal. I want to secretly create a Military Intelligence Bureau faction to divide the 76th Division."

Wang Xuesen revealed the plan.

Su Wanjia watched Wang Xuesen quietly from the side. At this moment, he was so composed and shrewd, without the slightest trace of a playboy.

It was so unfamiliar that it was astonishing.

"When you came, Boss Dai said that the policy towards you was to prioritize the overall situation over intelligence."

"Your idea is good, but it might be a bit troublesome to protect Wang Tianmu."

"You know Zhao Lijun, the deputy district chief of the Military Intelligence Bureau in Shanghai, right?"

"This person is nicknamed 'Life-Chasing Tai Sui,' and he is ruthless to both his enemies and his own people."

"He has an old grudge against Wang Tianmu and is just looking for an opportunity to retaliate."

"According to my intelligence, Zhao Lijun is already planning an assassination plot against Wang Tianmu. Even if I send a secret telegram to the boss tonight, Zhao Lijun will use the excuse of not receiving instructions to eliminate Wang Tianmu."

"Moreover, Wang Tianmu is not from the boss's inner circle but comes from an unorthodox background. The boss has always been suspicious and wary of people like him."

"It's too difficult to save him."

Du Song frowned.

"I'll handle how to save him; you just need to report to the boss."

"Also, you need to set up a transportation hub as soon as possible to ensure the smooth flow of supplies and personnel. I might need it later," Wang Xuesen instructed.

"Okay, I'll get on it right away." Du Song nodded.

"What instructions did the boss give?" Wang Xuesen asked.

"It's still about Chen Mingchu."

"This is a traitor personally named by the Chairman and the Boss. If we don't get rid of him, we'll lose face. We have to hurry!" Du Song said, frowning.

"What does this have to do with me?" Wang Xuesen retorted.

"This has nothing to do with us. It's just that Chen Mingchu has been hiding in No. 76 all along, and his movements are very secretive, so the Kuomintang assassination team can't catch him."

"We need more intelligence."

Du Song said helplessly.

"This guy is quite cautious. Li Shiqun protects him like a treasure. Tell the boss not to rush things."

"Li Shiqun's specialty is fishing."

"Losing your temper will cause trouble."

Wang Xuesen shook his head, giving Du Song an unequivocal warning.

"All right."

"Do you have enough money?" Du Song was taken aback by his shrewd aura and asked after regaining his senses.

"I 'escaped' to Shanghai, and the little money I have can't last long. I've almost spent it all just giving gifts to these old men. I was just thinking of asking you for some funds." As soon as money was mentioned, Wang Xuesen's face immediately changed to a fawning smile, and he rubbed his hands together in a mercenary manner.

You've misunderstood.

"I was hoping that if you two had any spare money, you could give me some," Du Song chuckled.

"no?"

"When I came here, Boss Dai told me that everything was prioritized and funds were plentiful. Why are you asking me for money?" Wang Xuesen's face fell, and he was speechless.

"Sigh, what else can we do?"

"Chen Mingchu took down the entire Military Intelligence Bureau region in one fell swoop."

"The French are unreliable. The Japanese forcibly cut off the Military Intelligence Bureau's funds in the French Concession banks, and their opium and black market dealings, which relied on Du Yuesheng, also collapsed."

"Medicinal herbs are in short supply and very expensive right now. My shop is short of money to restock."

Du Song sighed helplessly.

"That damned Chen Mingchu, he's made us all starve."

"Just make do with these flowers for now."

"I'll figure out a way to solve the money problem; I can't let you go bankrupt."

Wang Xuesen opened his briefcase, took everything out without even looking at it, and threw it on the table.

"Let's go!"

Wang Xuesen took the prescription, got up, and went out.

"Liu Zi, prepare the medicine for the customer according to the prescription," Du Song called out, peeking out of the door before closing it again and saying to Wan Jia.

"Miss Su, there are some things I can't say in front of Xuesen."

"Now that we are in a period of cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, we should save our strength and use it together. If you have any information about the red tickets, ask Xue Sen to help you find out."

"The retreat of the third group of the Military Intelligence Bureau during the last operation was facilitated by the help of the red ticket."

"We should reciprocate and help each other out."

"Old Du, I understand."

Su Wanjia nodded. She wanted to tell Wang Xuesen about taking advantage of her, but then thought it was a bit childish and swallowed it back.

"Take care, you two." Du Song personally saw them to the door.

Wang Xuesen, holding the medicine in his left hand and linking his arm with Wanjia's in his right, chuckled and said, "Madam, I've been completely drained this time. From now on, I'll have to rely on you to support me."

"That depends on how well you perform," Su Wanjia said with a charming smile.

"You mean..." Wang Xuesen raised the medicine packet in his hand.

"you!"

"You'll be starving from now on." Su Wanjia knew he was taking advantage of her again, and she was furious!

"See, doesn't he understand it quite well?" Wang Xuesen said.

"I don't have a man, so I've never heard of him before." Su Wanjia pinched him.

"Tell me what dirty jokes Yu Aizhen and the others usually tell," he continued teasingly.

"You wish!"

"I'm warning you, Yu Aizhen and Ye Jiqing are both femme fatales, don't even think about hitting on them," Su Wanjia warned.

"Why."

"It's so hard to be a man."

"I can't even think about the beautiful women around me, and when I go to nightclubs to fool around, I have to worry about my family's influence. I feel like I'm in jail every day."

"It's so tough."

Wang Xuesen complained.

"You men only know how to worry about these things. It's not like you'll die if you don't have them. With the country in crisis, wouldn't it be better to use that energy to think about how to deal with the Japanese devils?" Su Wanjia rolled her eyes at him and said disdainfully.

"You make it sound like you don't want to," Wang Xuesen said.

Su Wanjia blushed deeply: "I never wanted to be okay in the first place."

"Are you made of mud? Nobody would believe you!" Wang Xuesen retorted sarcastically.

"you!"

Su Wanjia pinched him randomly again.

"Stop fooling around. Take me to see Dad tomorrow." Wang Xuesen took her hand and got down to business.

"Our dad..." Su Wanjia paused for a moment:

"Yes, I've been back for two days now, it's time to go and pay them a visit."

"Wait for my call."

……

"Xiaomin, get up early tomorrow and brew the master's medicine." After returning home, Su Wanjia took off her high heels and instructed him while changing her shoes.

"Okay, ma'am." Xiaomin took the medicine packet.

"Thank you for your hard work." Wang Xuesen nodded to her.

Su Wanjia went upstairs to take a bath.

Wang Xuesen was downstairs soaking his feet and reading the newspaper.

It's ambiguous, isn't it?

It's okay to get close to someone outside and say some dirty jokes to relax, but you still need to keep a proper distance when you're at home, otherwise it really becomes harassment.

We can't drive the golden phoenix away.

He's broke right now and is still hoping to be kept by a rich young lady.

He chatted with Xiaomin casually, and casually suggested that she cook more oysters and kidneys to nourish herself in the next few days.

To help with buying tonics, I had to work too late and became weak.

night.

Wang Xuesen still hogged the bed like a big shot.

"Close your eyes and cover your ears," Su Wanjia said, her face flushed as she walked to the bedside after putting on her bra.

"Are you sick?" Wang Xuesen asked, bewildered.

"You're the one who's sick. Look at me, I... I can't call out." Su Wanjia was a little nervous and stammered.

"All right."

"You've worked hard, young lady."

Wang Xuesen looked at the somewhat cute beauty, knew she was embarrassed, so he stopped teasing her, turned off the light, and covered her with a thin blanket.

"Men really have it tough."

"I'm the one who's having a miserable life, it's so embarrassing."

Su Wanjia pouted, then began to "cry" with a helpless, shy expression.

"laugh!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

After listening for a while, Wang Xuesen, buried in the quilt, couldn't help but burst into laughter.

Su Wanjia was furious.

I'm shamelessly cooperating, and you still dare to laugh at me?

You probably don't know, but I've been learning boxing from a famous master since I was a child, so I'm quite skilled in it, okay?

She picked up a pillow and started swinging it wildly at Wang Xuesen.

Wang Xuesen wouldn't let her either.

The two of them wrestled and rolled around on the bed.
