"Ready for action!"

"yes!"

"etc."

Xu Zhugang was about to issue an order, but when he heard these words, he immediately stopped.

"Etc., etc."

Meng Shaoyuan kept mumbling.

His face gradually became ugly.

Xu Zhu said nothing.

"No, no. Yes, yes? But what if something goes wrong?"

Meng Shaoyuan was talking to himself there.

Xu Zhu had no idea what he was talking about.

After a while, Meng Shaoyuan said with great difficulty:

"Order, stop action, everyone, evacuate immediately."

"Yes, convey the order immediately!"

Xu Zhu responded calmly...

…

"Mr. Tian."

Kawamoto Kojiro stood up and looked at Tian Qi coldly.

Is it finished?

However, Tian Qi suddenly saw Kawamoto Kojiro bowing deeply to him:

"I'm sorry, Mr. Tian, ​​I blamed you wrongly!"

What's wrong?

Tian Qi had no idea what happened.

But he didn't say a word.

"The convoy was disguised and arrived at the consulate safely from the train station without any attacks!"

Tian Qi smiled nonchalantly.

But his heart finally let go.

Meng Shaoyuan must have discovered the problem...

…

This is not right.

At the moment Meng Shaoyuan issued the order, he suddenly realized something was wrong.

Before, there were always some sporadic things that were wrong in my mind.

But he didn't pay special attention to it.

But as the action was about to begin, this feeling became more intense.

Why?

…

"Xiao Xu, please bring me some food. I have too many things on my hands."

"No, I have something to do after I finish eating. You can call someone else."

"Okay. I'm so busy. Who has time to bring me some food?"

…

Before leaving the office, the staff's conversation appeared in Meng Shaoyuan's mind at this moment.

Everyone is busy.

Japanese people are also very busy.

Yoshikawa Wumen was killed, Xi Zhifu escaped, and a Japanese naval officer was killed.

Neither the Japanese army nor the naval intelligence department can really shirk responsibility for these.

That special envoy is about to arrive in Shanghai.

Under such circumstances, why should we extend a helping hand to the secret service of the consulate?

To be honest, Hou Qunfeng is indeed an important figure, but he has not yet been given special attention.

According to the conflicts between Japan's land, sea and foreign ministries, it is quite good not to undermine each other.

How can you help your opponent when you are unable to protect yourself and are extremely busy?

This doesn't fit their character.

To take a step back, it was Kojiro Kawamoto who really extended a helping hand to the consulate.

Kawamoto Kojiro has always suspected Tian Qi.

It was Koichi Hahara who passed on the news to Tian Qi.

Why is this?

Is there a possibility that this is a trap?

Meng Shaoyuan did not have any evidence to support his idea.

Even, did he think he was thinking too much?

But what if my guess is true?

Even if there is only one chance in ten thousand, if it comes true, it will seriously threaten Tian Qi's safety.

All Tian Qi's previous efforts will be in vain.

If you give up this operation, you will lose the best opportunity to capture Hou Qunfeng.

However, Meng Shaoyuan would rather give up this opportunity.

The safety of Tianqi must be absolutely ensured.

Don't take any risks!

Xu Zhu has already conveyed the signal to stop the action and evacuate all...

…

"I can tell you now, Mr. Tian."

Kojiro Kawamoto was high-spirited: "Cheng Qunfeng arrived in Nanjing the day before yesterday, and we implemented an absolute blockade on the news. Today, we secretly set off from Nanjing and have now safely arrived at the Consulate of the Empire of Japan in Shanghai!"

"Congratulations, Mr. Kawamoto."

Tian Qi burped: "Don't tell me your next move. I have no interest in Cheng Qunfeng at all, and I don't want to be suspected anymore."

Kawamoto Kojiro felt embarrassed again: "I still hope to be forgiven by you, Mr. Tian."

A smile appeared on Hahara Koichi's face: "Don't worry, Mr. Tian, ​​only those who have passed the most complicated tests are true friends worthy of our trust."

After speaking, he raised the wine cup: "Actually, I have another suspect in my heart..."

…

"The agents involved in this operation." As soon as he returned to the office, Meng Shaoyuan immediately called Wu Jingyi in: "Except for Gan Ning and Xu Zhu, the other fifteen people were all promoted to one level, and they were immediately sent to Chongqing to participate in the operation.

...Participate in the advanced spy training class. For details, I will personally contact Mr. Dai."

Very unkind.

But he must do it.

If any of these fifteen agents are arrested in the future, rebel, and confess to this failed operation, then Tian Qi will become a target of suspicion again.

Using fifteen agents to protect Tian Qi alone, Meng Shaoyuan must pay such a price!

…

"Of course there are lone heroes in this world, but a successful latent spy is never a lone hero. Behind him, there are one or several teams serving him. There are dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of people.

Be prepared to sacrifice for it at any time. When he delivers a piece of information of great strategic value, then this kind of sacrifice is completely worth it.

What is ridiculous and sad is that this latent spy did not know who the people who served him were. And those who served him and sacrificed their lives did not know who they were dying for until they died. Some people even did not understand

Why should I die? The intelligence front has always been so cruel. Everyone is just a pawn.

Meng Shaoyuan, Republic of China..."
