Conquering the world from the Kaiser's driver

"Your guard is indeed a member of the Storm Commando." After Bode entered the apartment, Ma Enna said to Lin Shangzhou with appreciation. Lin Shangzhou smiled and asked, "What do you want to see me about this time?"

"It's not a big deal..."

Ma Enna hesitated for a moment, turned his head to look at the window on the fourth floor of the apartment, and said to Lin Shangzhou: "Let's talk in the car."

"Ah."

Lin Shangzhou nodded, raised his head and looked in the direction that Ma Enna had just looked. He saw only drawn curtains behind the window, and this sight made him think of the possibility that Ma Enna came to find him.

The resident of the fourth floor is Wang Zhaoming. Ma Enna looked towards the fourth floor perhaps because he noticed Wang Zhaoming's gaze or perhaps his purpose of coming here was Wang Zhaoming.

After getting on the car, Lin Shangzhou stopped guessing in his mind. The solver was right in front of him, so he could just ask him if he had any questions.

Ma Enna closed the car door. The outside noise became a little muffled after the door closed. He took out a piece of paper with words from his briefcase and handed it to Lin Shangzhou, saying, "Mr. Hipper, the tenant in your apartment is a Chinese from the French Commune. We have been monitoring her movements since she came to Germany until she moved into your apartment."

Lin Shangzhou took the paper and looked at the words on it. Just as he had expected, Wang Niang was a member of LKMT. The paper contained the content of her telegram contact with LKMT members in Paris. She just reported some recent situations and there was nothing noteworthy.

Lin Shangzhou put down the paper and said to Ma Enna: "She moved into my apartment, and because of me you couldn't monitor her closely, and then what?"

His calm behavior surprised Ma Enna. It was obvious that Lin Shangzhou knew that his residents were from the French Commune.

"Mr. Hipper, it seems that you know the background of the resident of your apartment."

Ma Enna said in a playful tone that if Lin Shangzhou confirmed this, then the nature of the matter would be completely different.

Lin Shangzhou knew what the consequences would be if he confirmed this. He went from being an unwitting harbouring criminal to an informed harbouring criminal. There was nothing particularly suspicious about a Chinese coming from the French Commune, but if she was carrying a radio and had contact with the emperor's advisers, that would be suspicious.

So he shook his head and said, "How could I know that Miss Wang is from the French Commune? I can't read minds."

"Does it seem to you that I should be surprised when I find out about this?"

Lin Shangzhou asked back, then widened his eyes and pretended to be surprised and said: "Damn! She is actually from the commune!"

After that, his expression returned to normal and he said to Ma Enna, "Do you think I should behave like this?"

Mainna was speechless and shook his head.

Lin Shangzhou rolled his eyes, then returned the paper to Ma Enna and asked, "So you came to me to tell me if you are going to do anything to her?"

Ma Enna took the paper and shook his head, saying, "That's not the case. There are different opinions within the Military Intelligence Bureau on this matter. A small number of people advocate taking action against your tenant, while the majority advocate leaving it alone. After all, she is your tenant, and a Chinese. We don't want to offend you because of some meaningless telegram content."

"But I hope you can pay attention to your resident and prevent her from doing anything too outrageous."

Lin Shangzhou thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Thank you for your reminder, I will pay attention to it."

"In that case, I won't bother you anymore."

After saying that, Ma Enna opened the door and got out of the car. Lin Shangzhou opened the door and got out from the other side. He said goodbye to Ma Enna and watched him leave.

After a few seconds, Lin Shangzhou looked up at the window on the fourth floor, thinking about how to tell Wang Zhaoming about this matter. Ma Enna came to him for this matter, and even if he was the emperor's advisor, he couldn't just do nothing. Who knows what kind of trouble will happen in the future.

With a light sigh, Lin Shangzhou walked towards the apartment.

(Talk to her. At least you can’t send messages for a while.)

.

Chapter 219 Miss Wang, You Don’t Want to…

Lin Shangzhou entered the apartment and walked up the stairs to the fourth floor, thinking about how to tell Wang Zhaoming about this matter next.

Wang Niang has lived in his apartment for nearly a month. In the past month, Lin Shangzhou and Wang Niang have not had much contact. They only say hello when they meet each other when going up and down the stairs and on the way home, and report on their work at the newspaper.

There was absolutely no unnecessary contact between the two. If Ma Enna had not come to tell him about Wang Niang today, if this kind of life continued for a while, Lin Shangzhou might really think that this Wang Zhaoming had nothing to do with LKMT.

LKMT's target must be me, and this girl has been here for almost a month without any extra contact. If she is a member of LKMT, she is too patient.

As he was thinking, Lin Shangzhou found himself on the fourth floor. He decided not to think about this matter anymore. Since the people from the Military Intelligence Bureau had come to him, it didn't matter whether Wang Zhaoming was a patient LKMT member or not.

Lin Shangzhou stood in front of the door and raised his hand to knock. Before he touched the door, he stopped and withdrew his hand. An interesting idea just popped up in his mind.

Do you want to tease Wang Niang?

After some thought, Lin Shangzhou gave up the idea. He could do it, but overall it was not necessary.

After getting rid of the random thoughts in his mind, Lin Shangzhou reached out and knocked on the door in front of him.

There was a dull knock on the door, and after more than ten seconds the door was opened. Wang Zhaoming looked at Lin Shangzhou standing in front of him and asked, "Mr. Lin, what do you want to talk to me about?"

Lin Shangzhou stared into the eyes of the girl in front of him. He observed Wang Zhaoming's demeanor and eyes. From her natural look, it seemed that the girl did not look down from the window just now. In other words, Wang Zhaoming was completely unaware that her identity had been exposed, and all the telegrams she sent to Paris were intercepted by the Military Intelligence Bureau.

Seeing that Lin Shangzhou was hesitant to answer her question but was staring at her intently, Wang Zhaoming's eyes showed some doubt. During the time they had spent together, she thought that Lin Shangzhou was a gentleman, so when faced with Lin Shangzhou who was staring at her, she did not think in a bad way, but wondered if it was her own problem.

She tilted her head in confusion and asked Lin Shangzhou: "Mr. Lin, you have been looking at me. Is there something on my face?"

Wang Zhaoming reached out and touched her face to check if there was anything on it. Lin Shangzhou shook her head and sighed, "Miss Wang, for your safety, please don't send messages to Paris for a while. The Military Intelligence Bureau has come to me and told me about you. If you continue to send messages to Paris, even I can't protect you."

Wang Zhaoming was stunned when she heard the first words Lin Shangzhou said. Although he explained the problem in the last few words, Wang Niang's mind was now full of doubts about how Lin Shangzhou knew her identity and the helplessness she felt in the face of such an extremely dangerous emergency.

She didn't know what to do next. The man she was planning to contact already knew her identity. More importantly, this was told to him by a German spy, which meant that the German spies had already set their sights on her.

Wang Zhaoming's brain became extremely confused. She was not an underground worker and had almost no experience in this area, so she had no idea how to face Lin Shangzhou. She became more and more frightened. She was afraid that the spies would run up from downstairs and take her away in the next second.

Lin Shangzhou felt a little funny when he saw the confused Wang Zhaoming in front of him. He stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Wang Niang. Seeing that she had no reaction, he snapped his fingers in front of her.

Snapped--

The crisp voice brought Wang Zhaoming back from her daze and also scared her. After she came to her senses, she found that there was only Lin Shangzhou in front of her, and there seemed to be nothing unusual downstairs.

She looked nervous and uncomfortably as she looked at Lin Shangzhou who was standing in front of her, not knowing what to say. Wang Zhaoming pinched the corner of her clothes with her right hand, hoping to relieve the tension in her heart.

"I...."

Wang Zhaoming opened her mouth, but only uttered one word. She couldn't say the rest. To be exact, she didn't know what to say next.

Looking at Wang Niang who was so nervous in front of him, Lin Shangzhou chuckled and comforted her: "Okay, don't be nervous, I just came here to remind you that the German spies will not come to arrest you."

Wang Zhaoming felt relaxed instantly when she heard this. She knew that she could not fully trust the emperor's advisor who had contact with German spies, but her heart chose to believe in Lin Shangzhou and to grasp the hope that would keep her safe.

Otherwise she would have to choose to believe something else - that German spies would come to arrest her.

"Don't contact Paris for a while. They have different opinions. Although some people advocate arresting you, most people have decided to turn a blind eye to you for my sake. However, if there are sensitive contents in the telegrams you send to Paris in the future, even I won't be able to save you."

Lin Shangzhou seriously warned Wang Zhaoming that if the people from the Military Intelligence Bureau really intended to take action against Wang Zhaoming, it would be useless even if he was the emperor's advisor.

The main reason why Wang Zhaoming is safe now is not that he is the emperor's adviser. This is indeed a reason, but the main reason is that the content of her telegram is all about irrelevant things.

A Chinese spy from the French Commune who constantly reports insignificant work to Paris is worth the CIA's capture, but if he is involved with himself, the CIA will not take action for its own sake.

The prerequisite is that Wang Zhaoming stops his actions.

"Oh...ok...I see."

Wang Zhaoming nodded in a daze. She felt that what was happening now was very strange. Logically speaking, the advisor to the German emperor should report her, which would be good for him, but his current choice was to protect himself. Wang Zhaoming could understand the actions of the Military Intelligence Bureau, but she couldn't understand Lin Shangzhou's performance.

What good would it do him to protect himself?

Thinking of this, Wang Zhaoming, who was still uneasy, asked Lin Shangzhou: "Mr. Lin, why did you choose to protect me instead of handing me over? Since the German spies came to you because of me, wouldn't it be more beneficial for you to hand me over?"

"It would be of no benefit to you to protect a spy like me from the French Commune, would it? And it would also be a reason for others to attack you."

Wang Zhaoming's eyes were full of confusion. She couldn't understand why Lin Shangzhou did this.

Lin Shangzhou was amused after hearing Wang Zhaoming's question. He was not a villain, nor was he a heartless and ungrateful person. Wang Zhaoming had not asked him about German secrets, nor had she done anything out of line. Why should he hand her over?

This question reminded Lin Shangzhou of the thought he had before knocking on the door, so he smiled and said to Wang Zhaoming, "Miss Wang, do you mean that it's normal for me to behave like this?"

After saying that, Lin Shangzhou firmly grasped the door handle with one hand to prevent Wang Zhaoming from closing the door, and leaned his other arm against the door frame, close to Wang Zhaoming who was standing behind the door.

Such an action frightened Wang Niang. The fear that had just faded away from her heart surged out again and quickly spread in her heart.

Lin Shangzhou showed a kind smile on his face, but this smile was extremely evil in Wang Zhaoming's eyes. He said, "Miss Wang, although I don't know why you came to Germany from France to contact me, I think you don't want to be handed over to the German spies by me, right?"

Wang Zhaoming looked up at the man in front of her. She remembered what Lin Shangzhou had just said and realized that this was Lin Shangzhou's acting. The fear in her heart stopped spreading, but she always had a feeling that Lin Shangzhou would do something to her in the next second.

Lin Shangzhou looked Wang Zhaoming up and down, then licked his lips and said, "Miss Wang, if you don't want to be handed over to the German spies, then you may need to satisfy my little special need."

After saying this, Lin Shangzhou seemed to realize that his words were a bit too overbearing, so he quickly withdrew his hand, pretending to be a gentleman and said, "Ah, of course, I don't mean to force you, this is all voluntary."

Then he threatened: "But I don't know if you will encounter any accidents on your way home."

"Miss Wang, what do you think?"

After saying this, Lin Shangzhou immediately returned to his previous serious appearance. He smiled and said to Wang Zhaoming, "Does Miss Wang think it's normal for me to treat you like this?"

Wang Zhaoming looked into his eyes and nodded slightly.

This was not because she was speculating about Lin Shangzhou with malicious intent, but generally speaking, anyone standing in Lin Shangzhou's position at this time would do something to gain benefits from her.

Lin Shangzhou curled his lips when he saw this. He knew that what he did was indeed a little unreasonable. It was not surprising that Wang Zhaoming nodded, so he didn't say much. After a sigh, he explained to her: "Miss Wang, I know you are very confused about why I do this. You don't have to think too complicated about the reason. It's actually very simple."

"I just want to help my fellow man, that's all."

Wang Zhaoming was stunned when he heard this. This reason was too... too simple, right?

Just want to help fellow countrymen? What kind of reason is this? Normal people should think of using this incident to gain benefits for themselves, right?

Wang Zhaoming felt that she could not see through this man who did not play by the rules at all. She also believed that the reasons Lin Shangzhou gave were just to fool her and were not real reasons.

However, Wang Niang did not intend to dwell too much on this matter. Now that things had come to this, there was no point dwelling too much on it.

"I don't know why you would do this, but thank you for doing this."

Wang Zhaoming expressed his gratitude to Lin Shangzhou. Lin Shangzhou waved his hand, then gave Wang Zhaoming some instructions and went downstairs.

Wang Zhaoming watched Lin Shangzhou go downstairs. She closed the door and returned to her room only after she could no longer hear the footsteps.

She sat down on the sofa in the living room. The matter seemed to have passed, but Wang Zhaoming couldn't calm down.

She really wanted to send a telegram to Paris immediately to report the matter, but she became discouraged when she thought of Lin Shangzhou's instructions.

Wang Zhaoming, feeling upset, lay down on the sofa and sighed, saying weakly: "I should have known not to come to see him... Alas~"

Wang Zhaoming even had the idea of ​​leaving Germany right away. She had a premonition that if she continued to stay in Germany, she would get deeper and deeper into trouble until she could not escape. However, when she thought about the German spies monitoring her actions, she gave up this idea.

In her eyes, if she left Lin Shangzhou, she would really fall into a huge crisis.

Although such a thing happened, life and mission still have to go on. After Wang Zhaoming cheered himself up, he stood up from the sofa and returned to his room.

On the other hand, Lin Shangzhou did not take this matter to heart. In his eyes, it was just a small episode. He had already reminded Wang Zhaoming, and if nothing unexpected happened, the people from the Military Intelligence Bureau would not come to him again because of this matter.

A few days later, it was May of 31st year. Everything was going smoothly. Good news about the smooth development came from branches in various places. The construction of the institute was also in full swing and was expected to be completed in one to two months.

Such a long time is enough for Havot and his team to make enough communicators. Once the research institute is established, Lin Shangzhou will put the sale of communicators on the agenda.

But as time went by, Lin Shangzhou encountered something that surprised him - Letitia's mother sent a letter hoping that her daughter could go home to see her.

Although Letitia's father was a complete bastard and she had deep conflicts with her father, she had said that she would cut off relations with her father, but she did not cut off relations with her mother.

Faced with her mother's letter, Letitia's heart was a little shaken. She had been away from home for a year. During this year, she sometimes thought of her mother and brother. She wanted to go back to see them, but she didn't know how to face her mother after returning. Finally, after being persuaded by several girls in Wuyou Palace, she decided to take a leave and go home.

In order to avoid accidents, Cecilia also selected a female member from the Storm Commandos as Letitia's escort on her return home. After seeing this female member, Letitia was very surprised because the other party was someone she knew - Catherine of Strasbourg.

At first, Letitia was somewhat resistant to this, but when she saw that it was someone she knew, she agreed to let Catherine accompany her.

On May 6, Letitia and Catherine boarded the train to Strasbourg together.

Chapter 220 No National Policy

"Fritts, can you help me figure out how I should handle this?"

Alexandrine picked up the document on the table in distress and handed it to Lin Shangzhou. Lin Shangzhou, who was sitting on the sofa drinking tea, saw the German Emperor handing him the document, put down his teacup, stood up and prepared to take it, but Noah got the document in his hand before him and handed it to him.

"Thank you." After thanking Noah, Lin Shangzhou took the document and read its contents. This was a document related to personnel changes. To put it simply, Papen was preparing to replace the main officials of the government agencies, so he sent this document to Alexandrine.

Although Papen had only one year left in his term and he took over halfway, as long as he dealt with the mess left by Albert, the hands-off chancellor, and sailed smoothly in the next year, it would not be too difficult for him to be re-elected in the 1932 general election with the prestige and reputation accumulated by the Center Party in the previous ten years.

Lin Shangzhou put down the documents and looked at Alexandrine and said, "Since Mr. Papen wants to change people, then you should approve it. It's not a big deal. It's normal for the new prime minister to replace the members of the government agencies with his own people after taking office."

Alexandrine was stunned for a moment after hearing this, then she picked up another document and said awkwardly, "It's not this. I just took the wrong document. This is what's written on this one."

This time, Lin Shangzhou stood up and walked to Alexandrine, put the document about personnel changes in his hand on the table, and took another document.

Lin Shangzhou did not return to the sofa but stood in front of the table and looked at the contents of the document in detail. As he read the document, Lin Shangzhou's expression became serious. He pinched a corner of the paper with one hand and rested his chin with the other hand, thinking about how to deal with this matter.

The content of this document that troubled Alexandrine was related to the reform of Prussia's voting system and the reconstruction of the Federal Parliament. Lin Shangzhou knew about the three-level voting system. He also knew that during Ludendorff's dictatorship, most of Germany's democratic decision-making systems were abolished and the Federal Parliament was forcibly closed.

After the "Turnip Winter", William II promised the people that he would carry out substantive democratic reforms. However, although he said it and made the promise, in reality in the history of KX, William II did not carry out democratic reforms in the true sense until 36 years later.
