Qiao Li saw that the call had been completed, and then he drove the car directly outside the west city. He wanted to go to another safe place outside the city and wait until the matter was over.
But he didn't dare to stay too far away. After all, he hadn't paid enough attention to Xu Renjie's side yet, so he still had to be prepared.
As for Mrs. Chen, he believed that Shenlan could handle it well. After all, Shenlan didn't say that he had found it, but judging by his tone, he didn't even mention it, so he was obviously certain.
Since Shenlan notified him to evacuate, it means that Shenlan has made preparations.
…
In Dong Biqi's office on the second floor of the Party Affairs Office, a whiteboard was placed in his office, and he was standing there looking at several phone numbers and several important place names written on it.
Twenty-three of the Chengnan telephone numbers were placed there, forming a row.
He was holding a cup of tea in one hand and looking at the phone list on it while drinking it.
"No, at least we can find something. The radio station should be among these lists. After all, Mrs. Chen is in a hurry to contact Nanjing, and the best way is to make a phone call."
"But Xu Renjie should not be in Nanwai District 1. If we checked three times from last night to morning, if he is still there, he must have been found."
"The most important thing is that if you want to contact the outside world, besides telegrams, you have to use the phone. And when he showed up at the telegraph office, the underground party contact station in Nanjing has been taken over. Xu Renjie must still be in the city, but he doesn't know where he is hiding.
Where is it?"
He looked at another name below, which was Mingxiang Restaurant. He also had lunch in the restaurant, but left before half past eleven.
Why can't I reach you at this phone number, but it was just the waiter who told me, and no one else knew about it.
There were also people watching Xu Renjie go upstairs to eat, and it was the waiter who led him up. This was a contradiction, and Dong Biqi thought about it quietly.
Seeing several lines connected to Mingxiang Restaurant, his brows furrowed even more tightly, as if the source of all conflicts was related to Mingxiang Restaurant.
This was just a piece of paper. As for the other lines, he quickly gave up on most of them, and the remaining three lines were where he focused entirely.
Is there anything he simply ignored?
Dong Biqi took a pencil and circled it slowly. But as he circled it, he felt that the three lines were the most suspicious, and among them, Xu Renjie only appeared in three places: the station, the telegraph office, and the Mingxiang Restaurant. Could this really be
A coincidence?
He had to believe that there was such a big coincidence in the world, and there was another important issue, that is, the Liu Chamber of Commerce was also an important target of suspicion, after all, Erbao was guarding there.
Now he only has four lines in hand, at least one of which is related to the underground party or even Mrs. Chen.
"Hey, Deputy Chief Tian, has that telegram been deciphered?"
He picked up the phone and called directly, and asked a few people who were deciphering Arita Zakaya.
"Chief Dong, it will probably take a while. It will be almost there in another hour or two. We already have a clue." Tanaka Masaru replied directly.
"Well, decipher it as soon as possible for me, and I will ask the director for credit."
When he hung up the phone again, the phone on the table rang.
He picked up the phone and asked casually, and then heard the agent monitoring Qiao Li on the phone saying that Qiao Li drove away, which made Dong Biqi stunned.
Suddenly, an idea flashed in his mind, and he strode towards the office opposite, where Wang Shuxiang's Telecommunications Department was located, where Tanaka Masaru and the people Wang Shuxiang had hired deciphered the telegram sent from Nanjing.
"Chief Dong, why are you here?"
"I suddenly thought of something, so I came over to tell you, is this the case? Look at these words, can you take them apart and then put them together again? Is this the same principle? It's like 'mingxiang'
I didn’t understand the two words and the content above.”
"Could it be a code word for contact? Cousin, cousin, isn't this a common excuse used by underground parties?" Tanaka Masaru was stunned when he saw that the problem was almost solved, and his eyes lit up.
"But what is Mingxiang? Is it a teahouse or something else?"
"I just thought of a question. There is a Mingxiang Restaurant in the DC area. I suspect it is this Mingxiang. After all, Xu Renjie went here to eat at 10:30 in the morning. Look, he was at the telegraph office at 10:30.
Let’s set off and get to Mingxiang Restaurant, which will be a few miles away.” The more Dong Biqi calculated, the more he felt that the truth was not far away from him.
"It seems like this is true. There must be something wrong with this Mingxiang Restaurant. I suspect it is a contact point for the underground party, or a joint location." Tanaka Masaru's eyes also tightened, with an indescribable feeling.
Sharp.
"Chief Dong, arrest him and then search them all. I believe that if it is the contact point of the underground party, there will be some clues left behind." Wang Shuxiang also nodded.
"No, if this is really the contact point of the underground party, then we have to take a long-term approach to catch the big fish, especially since we have just received the report and the boss of this place has just left. If we catch him now, it will be easy to alert the snake." The corner of Dong Biqi's mouth also said.
There was a flash of fierceness and fierceness, but the smile in his eyes was overwhelming.
"It seems that Section Chief Dong is already confident!"
"Haha!" Dong Biqi just smiled, and then began to give a few instructions to Tanaka Masa before heading to his office.
Back in the office, he has now determined that there is a problem there, and will naturally step up the investigation.
…
"Pony, it's me!"
In the cathedral, Ma Zhongliang heard the voice of the person on the phone when he picked up the phone.
"It turns out to be Boss Qiao, is there something wrong?"
"I may have to show up there, but there is one thing I have to leave to you. There is a guest at No. 44 August Hutong, Beicheng District. You will send a meal there every morning and evening. Don't show your face. Remember
, and don’t let anyone know you exist.”
"One more thing to bring here, the home needs to be renovated and it is not suitable to entertain guests."
"Something happened?" Ma Zhongliang knew that his only online contact would tell him about this matter, and his heart shrank and hurt.
"What do you need me to do now?"
"You have only one mission now. The rest of the time you are silent, waiting for someone to wake you up again." Qiao Li said seriously.
"I see!"
Ma Zhongliang hit rock bottom in an instant. After all, he had to be silent now. Why did he come to Peking? Was he here for fun or vacation?
He gave up love, gave up his family, gave up a lot, and instead devoted himself to the revolution.
But he knows that this is no longer something he can change. What he has to do now is to be silent and stay silent forever, waiting for his new online presence.
If he is silent here, his downline Du Xinran will also remain silent there.
In addition, he still had to do the tasks assigned by Qiao Li well. Every time he went to deliver food there, he had to maintain a certain sense of mystery, even though he didn't know who the other person was.
He checked the time, then walked directly out of the cathedral and walked towards the house he rented. He quickly changed into a set of clothes and simply lost his appearance.
Soon I carried a small box and headed towards August Alley. After all, it was almost seven o'clock.
