Chapter 1117 Meet Saito

Several dog barks were heard from the entrance of the alley.

 Someone scolded.

There was a sound of Dhudang, as if someone was hitting the dog with a stone, and with a howl, the barking dog ran away with its tail between its legs.

Luo Yannian put down the hand that lifted the curtains and shook his head at Comrade Miaopu, indicating that there was nothing unusual.

"This is a secret message from Comrade Bai Yang." Miaopu pulled out the hairpin, unscrewed it, took out a long and thin piece of paper and handed it to Luo Yannian.

Luo Yannian twisted the note and read it, his expression instantly became extremely solemn.

 “Something happened?” Miaopu asked.

"Hmm." Luo Yannian nodded, but didn't say much. He took out his pocket watch and checked the time, "Comrade Narcissus, the situation is urgent, so I won't keep you much longer. Please be careful on the way."

Miaopu nodded, she picked up the small cloth bag, took two steps, turned to look at Luo Yannian, she wanted to inquire about her son, but in the end she said nothing and turned away again.

 Luo Yannian’s expression was serious and heavy.

Comrade Bai Yang’s secret letter reported an important situation. The Japanese seemed to have invented an instrument that can detect radio signals. This morning, the enemy used a rickshaw as a cover to secretly use the instrument to search for radio signals on Masinan Road.

 The secret letter mentioned that the enemy was near No. 62, Masinan Road, and was captured by a patrolman on patrol.

Luo Yannian immediately realized at this time that when he was at Comrade Cen Xu's home during the day, he saw a rickshaw driver being arrested from the window by the patrol. It turned out that the patrol had mistakenly arrested a Japanese spy.

At that time, he felt that the rickshaw driver was suspicious, but he did not expect that the enemy was coming for the radio. If it had not been for Comrade Bai Yang's secret report, he would never have thought that the enemy had invented an advanced instrument that could capture radio signals.

Then, Luo Yannian was shocked. Although Comrade Bai Yang said in the secret letter that he only relied on his professional experience to judge that the enemy's equipment captured radio signals and was not sure, he knew Comrade Bai Yang very well. A very talented comrade in the telecommunications profession, his judgments are mostly correct.

 In this way, Luo Yannian immediately became worried. He suspected that the enemy was near No. 62, Masinan Road, and was attracted by the radio signal generated by Comrade Cen Xu's radio transmission.

So, has the enemy targeted No. 62, Masinan Road?

 Comrade Cen Xu is in danger!

No matter whether the enemy has targeted No. 62, Masinan Road, this is a dangerous signal, and Comrade Cen Xu must be warned immediately.

 …

 At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Luo Yannian opened the drawer, took out the Mauser pistol, turned off the safety, and walked behind the door.

Hearing the change in the rhythm of the knocking on the door, he breathed a sigh of relief.

 “Who?”

 “It’s me, I’m rich now.” The voice outside the door responded, “I’m so hot, please open the door quickly.”

With a creak, Luo Yannian opened the door.

 ‘Nian Dafu’ stepped in carrying a net bag.

 In the net bag is a small bundle of water spinach.

"Newly picked water spinach." "Nian Dafu" raised his net bag, "Aren't you angry? Eat this to get rid of the anger."

While talking, the two of them listened to the door, but there was no other movement.

‘Nian Dafu’ rummaged through the small bundle of water spinach, pulled out one, broke it, and took out the note inside.

“A secret letter from Comrade ‘Stinky Mandarin Fish’.” said ‘Nian Dafu’.

Comrade ‘Stinky Mandarin Fish’ was a hidden comrade handed over to Comrade Fang Jinghua before he evacuated Shanghai.

However, although it was handed over, Comrade Fang Jinghua specifically pointed out that the organizational relationship of Comrade "Stinky Mandarin Fish" is at the Yanzhou headquarters, and the Shanghai side has no guidance or command authority over Comrade "Stinky Mandarin Fish".

When it comes to work specifically, the Shanghai local party organization cannot proactively contact Comrade "Stinky Mandarin Fish". Comrade "Stinky Mandarin Fish" can contact the Shanghai local party organization through a dead mailbox.

Therefore, to this day, Luo Yannian does not know the true identity of Comrade "Stinky Mandarin Fish". He can only vaguely guess that Comrade "Stinky Mandarin Fish" should be an ace agent who successfully infiltrated the enemy's key departments. As for the enemy's Which department, he couldn't tell.

Luo Yannian took the note, twisted it and read it.

 His eyes narrowed and his expression was solemn.

 At the same time, he was also surprised in his heart.

What Comrade "Stinky Mandarin Fish" told in the secret letter was actually the same as what Comrade "Baiyang" reported.

 The only difference is that Comrade ‘Stinky Mandarin Fish’ reported in more detail and specificity:

Comrade "Stinky Mandarin Fish" clearly pointed out that the instrument is called a "radio wave locator", which can search and minimize the location of the radio station. It is the secret weapon of the Japanese Super High School.

Comrade ‘Stinky Mandarin Fish’’s secret letter issued a warning that the enemy may have paid attention to No. 62, Masinan Road. If that place is the residence of a comrade of our party, it must be moved immediately.

In addition, Comrade "Stinky Mandarin Fish" pointed out that the Japanese Special High School agents were mistakenly arrested by the patrol room. "However, Cheng Qianfan is extremely pro-Japanese. Once he learns his identity, he will definitely release them, and among the two arrested There are Japanese experts who are skilled in telecommunications. Therefore, if there is indeed a radio station on Masinan Road and nearby, we must evacuate as soon as possible. ’

“Comrade Fangyuan is in danger.” Luo Yannian said in a deep voice.

 ‘Fang Yuan’ is Comrade Cen Xu’s pseudonym.

"I'll go." "Nian Dafu" said immediately, "I can pretend to be delivering food to Comrade Fangyuan's house to warn him."

"No, it's too dangerous." Luo Yannian shook his head. If the enemy really suspected No. 62, Masinan Road, then the area near Cen Xu's home must have been secretly monitored by the enemy. At this time, anyone approaching No. 62, Masinan Road Anyone will arouse the enemy's alertness and suspicion.

 “Let’s go.” Luo Yannian said decisively, “Use the phone.”

Ten minutes later, Luo Yannian and ‘Nian Dafu’ came to a telephone booth.

“Call.” Luo Yannian handed over a banknote.

 “For your own use.” The telephone hall staff glanced at the two of them and said impatiently.

“Please step aside,” Luo Yannian said.

 “Mozi?” The staff member glared at Luo Yannian, his eyes resting on the banknotes handed over by the other man.

Taking the banknotes, he finally had a smile on his face and muttered, "You can fight it yourself while I relieve myself."

 …

 Ma Sinan Road, No. 62.

living room.

Jingle Bell.

The phone in the living room rang suddenly.

The maid sitting on the stool shakily was startled. She raised her head and looked at the gangster holding a dagger and a short gun in horror.

“Go and answer the phone.” Kawaguchi, who was leading the team, pointed his gun at the maid, “You know what to say and what not to say.”

The maid was frightened and nodded violently.

 “Who?” the maid picked up the phone receiver and asked.

“It’s me, Lai Taofen, please ask Manager Cen to answer the phone.”

 “I’m looking for my employer.” The maid covered the phone and said.

Kawaguchi waved his hand, making a sleeping gesture.

 “Boss Lai, Mr. Lai has gone to bed,” the maid said.

On the other end of the phone, Luo Yannian's heart skipped a beat. He knew something might have happened to Comrade Cen Xu:

Lai Taofen's identity itself is a warning signal. He had previously told Comrade Cen Xu to tell the maid, Aunt Ping, that if a gentleman named Lai calls, he must be called to answer the phone.

Moreover, Comrade Cen Xu loves to read newspapers and often keeps reading. At this time, he usually enjoys a cup of tea in the study and reads the Times.

Comrade Cen Xu’s daily work includes uncovering available information from these daily newspapers.

 So, at this moment, Comrade Cen Xu will not go to bed to rest.

"That's it, please tell Manager Cen that I got the things he asked me to get." Luo Yannian said, "Tomorrow I will ask the milkman Qiu Er to bring it to him."

“Okay, Boss Lai, I will tell Mr. Lai,” the maid said.

"That's it." Luo Yannian said and hung up the phone.

 His heart ached with pain.

 Comrade Cen Xu is in trouble.

Comrade Cen Xu cannot drink milk due to physical reasons. As the maid responsible for cooking for Comrade Cen Xu, Aunt Ping naturally cannot fail to know this.

He just said that deliberately, and Aunt Ping immediately understood what he meant and answered that deliberately. In fact, she used that way to tell him that something happened over there.

 “Let’s go.” Luo Yannian said to ‘Nian Dafu’.

 ‘Nian Dafu’ glanced alertly and saw the telephone operator looking furtively over. His heart sank and he quickly followed.

“Something happened to Comrade ‘Fang Yuan’.” Luo Yannian lowered his voice and said, “Notify him and cut off all contact with Comrade ‘Fang Yuan’.”

"yes!"

“How many comrades do we still have in Marin Bank?” Luo Yannian asked.

"Two." "Nian Dafu" said, "One is Comrade Cai Ming who was arranged by Comrade Fangyuan, and the other is Comrade Qu Kunming who was arranged by the organization to apply."

After a pause, 'Nian Dafu' said, "Comrade 'Fang Yuan' doesn't know Comrade Qu Kunming."

 “Comrade Cai Ming evacuates immediately.” Luo Yannian said with a serious expression.

He believed in Comrade Cen Xu and his loyalty to the party and the people. That seemingly thin body contained infinite energy and a steely will.

 But he must be prepared for the worst.

 …

“Miyazaki-kun, you are so funny, hahaha.” Kazuo Saito laughed.

 Along the way, he chatted and laughed with Kentaro Miyazaki, which was very unpleasant.

"Saito-kun, I'm just enjoying the hardship." Cheng Qianfan pretended to smile bitterly, "How can you be so free and comfortable like you, Saito-kun?"

 The car has entered the street where Imamura's mansion is located.

Cheng Qianfan lifted the car curtain and took a look, clearly feeling that there was an atmosphere that was very different from the usual.

  To be precise, it is the aura of chilling.

 There were "Imperial Gendarmerie" patrolling along the streets with their arms covered with white sleeves.

There were also ‘imperial soldiers’ standing guard along the road, their bayonets gleaming coldly under the street lights.

“This is the aura of the Imperial Lieutenant General.” Cheng Qianfan couldn’t help but murmured with admiration in his eyes.

 Saito Kazuo looked at Miyazaki who couldn't help himself, with a hint of pride and pride on his lips:

 Hillbilly!

The vehicle was stopped more than 20 meters away from Imamura's residence. A Japanese major with a command knife on his waist came to the window and knocked on it.

 Kazuo Saito lowered the window and stuck his head out, "Major Hamasaki."

"Saito-kun." The Japanese military commander naturally knew the license plate. It was a routine check. When he saw Saito Kazuo coming forward, he smiled and waved his hand to indicate that the vehicle could enter.

"There is intelligence that Chongqing has sent assassination masters to Shanghai and is trying to launch an attack on senior imperial officers." Saito Kazuo said to the two people in the back seat, "So, we have to guard against Xiao Xiao."

"All Chinese people should be killed!" Cheng Qianfan frowned, a cruel and violent look flashed across his eyebrows, "The dead Chinese people are the good Chinese people."

"Hahaha." Kazuo Saito laughed. Although he had long known that Kentaro Miyazaki was extremely contemptuous of the Chinese people, the two of them had not had much contact, and this was the first time he had seen this side of Miyazaki.

 Thinking that Tsubasa Naito had suspected that Kentaro Miyazaki had a problem before, Kazuo Saito couldn't help shaking his head in his heart. How could such a Kentaro Miyazaki have a problem?

 That guy Naito was simply blinded by his personal emotions.

　　However, speaking of which, that guy Naito has been missing for a long time, and there is no trace of his body, alive or dead.

“Miyazaki-kun, is there any news about Naito-kun from the patrol room?” Kazuo Saito asked.

"No." Cheng Qianfan shook his head, his expression solemn, "However, the patrol room found out that Tu Helin was around the time Naito-kun disappeared."

"Tu Helin..." Kazuo Saito frowned, nodded, and said, "That **** mule has calmed down a bit during this time, and another Commander Tu appeared."

 He looked at Kentaro Miyazaki and said, "Miyazaki-kun, the work of the patrol room is unsatisfactory."

“There is nothing we can do about it.” Cheng Qianfan shook his head, “Intelligence shows that whether it is Jiang Mulezi or Tu Helin, there are shadows of the Qing Gang behind them...”

His face was calm and serious, "Zhang Xiaolin is a cunning person who is accustomed to supporting the green forest forces. The patrol room is investigating the possible collusion between Zhang Xiaolin, Jiang Mulezi and Tu Helin."

 Saito Kazuo nodded and smiled slightly, but he was tutting in his heart.

If he hadn't known about the grudge between this guy Miyazaki and Zhang Xiaolin, and looked at Kentaro Miyazaki's serious attitude when he told this 'intelligence' just now, he would have almost believed it.

However, after thinking for a moment, Kazuo Saito also knew Kentaro Miyazaki’s helplessness.

Zhang Xiaolin is still of great use to the empire. Although Miyazaki Kentaro wishes to kill Zhang Xiaolin as soon as possible, he has no choice. This must be extremely difficult for Miyazaki Kentaro, who despises the Chinese people in his heart, to accept it, and he must be very angry in his heart.

For Kentaro Miyazaki, what he can do now, or the easiest and relatively limited method, is to use his power in the patrol room to cause trouble for Zhang Xiaolin. Of course, this kind of trouble cannot be done to Zhang Xiaolin. But at least it can disgust Zhang Xiaolin.

 …

 “Uncle Kogoro.”

Looking at Kentaro Miyazaki who bowed to him with great respect, Imamura Kogoro felt very happy.

“General Saito is in the study, you can go up on your own.” Kogoro Imamura said.

 “Hai.”

Cheng Qianfan had just taken two steps when Imamura Kogoro stopped him, "Kentaro, carry this pot of tea up for me."

"Hai." Cheng Qianfan turned around and walked over, taking the simple teapot with both hands respectfully. He looked at Kogoro Imamura with gratitude in his eyes.

 “Go.” Imamura Kogoro smiled and patted Miyazaki Kentaro on the shoulder:

Sakamoto Yoshino had no intention of pursuing an official career, and Saito Kazuo was Yataro Saito’s nephew. Naturally, neither of them needed his care.

Only Kentaro Miyazaki came from a humble background and needed him to take care of him. Of course, the most important thing was that Kentaro had always respected him very much. As for food, he once casually said that the sesame pancakes at Eight Immortals Bridge were good. Next time Miyazaki Kentaro respected him very much. When Kentaro Saki came, he brought three flavors of Eight Immortals Bridge sesame cakes, and the sesame cakes were still hot. He was very satisfied with Kentaro's attitude.

 “Uncle, counselor.”

 “Uncle, Your Majesty the General.”

"Teacher." Cheng Qianfan entered the study room carrying a teapot. His eyes were attracted by Saito Yataro. Apart from him, this man's appearance was so impressive. He had a round head, big ears, and a rough appearance, just like that fat pig head. generally.

However, he quickly withdrew his gaze and bowed to Imamura Hyōtaro. After Imamura Hyōtaro nodded slightly, he put down the teapot, stood at attention and saluted Saito Yataro, "Your Excellency, General, Kazuo Miyazaki salutes you. "
