When Mr. Dong sent the report, Lu Ming next door also heard the low ticking sound. He smiled inwardly and said to himself: The Communist Party has started working again.
He knew radio stations and had learned to send and receive newspapers. He could even tell that Mr. Dong was not using his password, but another one. He knew that this must be Mr. Dong reporting work to his superiors.
However, Lu Ming didn't know something. Although the telegram sent by Mr. Dong this time was not directly provided by him, he was the source of the information.
Lu Ming sat at the table and meditated, what should China's first secret service school look like? At this time, the phone rang. It was Qiantian calling, asking him to meet at Hongqiao Park at nine o'clock tomorrow morning.
"Why not now? Let's have a drink together tonight." Lu Ming wanted to chat with him more in order to get more information.
"I can't leave. I'll go out to do some errands tomorrow morning, so I'll have some time." Qiantian smiled bitterly on the phone and then hung up.
Lu Ming was originally very calm, imagining all the situations in the secret service school, but this phone call made him a little uneasy.
Qiantian's request to meet must have something important to do, but the fact that he did not ask to meet immediately meant that it was not that urgent. If it were very urgent, he believed that Qiantian would be able to find an excuse to slip out.
Despite this, a shadow still cast over his heart, and he was destined to spend the night in a state of anxiety.
He called Kang Ze and asked him if there was anything important in the company, but Kang Ze said no.
Lu Ming briefly reported on the results of the day's work. Kang Ze was greatly praised and said hello excitedly on the phone.
"Brother Kang, I need to explain one thing first. Although the people from the Special Operations Brigade of the Provisional Government of the Republic of Korea will be part of our establishment in the future, people have made it clear that they only deal with the Japanese and do not intervene in the disputes between us Chinese.
I think we have to respect others on this point, what do you think?" Lu Ming said.
This point was indeed proposed by An Gonggen. He said that he and his men would never get involved in the dispute between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party. They just wanted to fight the Japanese to the end and finally complete the mission of restoring the country.
This coincides with Lu Ming's views. Lu Ming also only wants to deal with invading enemies and does not want to get involved in the disputes between different political opinions in the country.
"Yes, there are many people in the underground organization of the Communist Party, but we don't have a suitable team to deal with the Japanese right now. Brother Lu, you have created a sharp blade to deal with the Japanese." Kang
Ze totally agrees.
Indeed, Shanghai's major party, government, and military agencies have long had departments targeting the CCP's underground party, with a large number of manpower inside. It can even be said that the main task of these agencies is to deal with the Communist Party.
The Shanghai Special Operations Brigade is a specialized agency established solely for the purpose of arresting the Communist Party.
But dealing with the Japanese has never been done before, because no matter it was the Beiyang period or the Northern Expedition, every government was eager to please the Japanese government. They dared not mention dealing with the Japanese. Even if Japanese spies were sometimes caught, they would be quietly let go.
If something goes wrong, they don't even dare to report it publicly.
"That's good. I have to meet with an informant tomorrow morning, and I'll go back to the company at noon to discuss the next step of the work." Lu Ming said.
"Okay, even if you are busy outside, I will be in charge of the company." Kang Ze agreed hastily.
Kang Ze was overjoyed and confirmed that he had not chosen the wrong partner. With Lu Ming's help, it was like Liu Bei got Zhuge Liang. What's more, this result was easy and he didn't ask him to visit the thatched cottage.
Lu Ming did not tell Kang Ze about the plan to build a special agent school. He planned to first go through Mr. Sheng Youde and Mr. Wenbai to try to get the government authorities to apply to the Soviet Union for more experts to aid China, and then he would explain his true intentions.
If the situation changes, it is possible not to mention the matter.
Lu Ming looked out the window and it was getting late. He was confused and couldn't find anything to do for a while, so he simply drove to Caobang, picked up Yuan Mingzhu, and went to Chinachem Hotel for dinner.
Lu Ming ordered very rich and expensive dishes, and also ordered a bottle of champagne.
"I still need to open the champagne. What day is it today? Isn't it my birthday that I forgot?" Yuan Mingzhu thought, rubbing her head.
"Don't think about it, it's not your birthday." Lu Ming smiled.
"What kind of show is that? You made it so solemn. You didn't learn Western etiquette and proposed to me, right? I agreed." Yuan Mingzhu said with a chuckle.
"What are you thinking about? We are already engaged, why are you proposing? Have you spent all your time cracking passwords and messed up your head?" Lu Ming laughed angrily.
"Well, my mind has been a little confused recently." Yuan Mingzhu nodded.
"I said to you, if you have nothing to do, you can go out with Miss Ning to have fun, eat, dance, or listen to music. Don't always stay in the house to crack the password. Or if you want to eat something, just call me.
Ah." Lu Ming said with some distress.
Lu Ming studied radio with Yuan Mingzhu at the time, but he soon gave up. However, Yuan Mingzhu became addicted and persevered in delving into it, basically leaving behind her previous hobbies.
Yuan Mingzhu locked herself in her room all day long, which made Ning Xiner very dissatisfied with her, but she couldn't do anything about her. Who called her her sister?
"Cracking passwords is fun. I don't feel bored. Have you forgotten? I loved guessing lantern riddles when I was a child." Yuan Mingzhu said with a smile.
"Guessing lantern riddles and passwords are completely different things, how can they be mixed together?" Lu Ming pretended to be puzzled.
"Almost, the principle is the same." Yuan Mingzhu said innocently.
"One is words and the other is numbers. They are completely different, okay?" Lu Ming said angrily.
"Okay, I know you feel sorry for me. I will just go out for a walk more often in the future. Don't be angry." Yuan Mingzhu smiled and reached out to touch Lu Ming's face.
Lu Ming quickly covered his head with his hands, fearing that she would go up and touch his head.
After a while, the steak Lu Ming ordered came, and he wanted it medium rare.
The steak he ordered for Yuan Mingzhu was fully cooked, and he had to wait for a while before serving her a vegetable salad.
The waiter in a crisp uniform came over and opened the champagne. With one hand behind his back, he poured a glass for each of them with standard movements, then put the bottle on the table before walking away.
The two of them drank and ate while chatting.
Yuan Mingzhu hasn't seen Lu Ming for several days, and the weekly meeting of their small circle has also been stopped, so today Lu Ming took her out for dinner, and she seemed particularly happy.
Lu Ming casually asked his eldest brother what he was busy with recently. Yuan Mingzhu said that his eldest brother had been quite mysterious recently. He convened meetings with the heads of various halls every day and seemed to be secretly discussing something.
Lu Ming thought to himself, that's right. It seems that Ning Zetao took his request seriously.
For An Gonggen, Lu Ming is absolutely assured that the tasks assigned will be completed to the letter. The situation in Caobang is more complicated, mainly due to human factors.
An Gonggen's people are full-time revolutionaries, while the Caobang brothers are, after all, a combination of three religions and nine streams.
"By the way, you have to pay attention to new directions in password cracking. I saw an article that recently some top mathematicians in Germany are preparing to build a machine. In the future, machine encoding will be used. The programming of passwords will be more complicated and difficult to crack.
It will also increase hundreds of times." Lu Ming suddenly remembered a report he read and said.
"What? Use a machine to encode?" Yuan Mingzhu didn't understand. This was the first time she heard that a machine could also encode.
"Yes, it is encoded by machine. This kind of machine has already programmed the password in advance. You only need to type out the message with a typewriter, and the machine connected to the typewriter can automatically encode it. This kind of password cannot be decoded manually. It can only create a
Only a decoder using the same principles and mathematical calculations can solve it," Lu Ming said.
He read it from an article published in the International Journal of Cryptozoology. The author of this article said that machine encoding and decoding will be the mainstream direction of cryptography in the future, and traditional encoding and decoding will be completely eliminated.
He has subscribed to an English version of the "International Journal of Cryptozoology" since last year. There is only one issue a month. The articles published on it can be described as diverse and include all kinds of cryptographic design methods.
After this article on building an ultimate machine code was published, many traditional cryptography experts expressed their disapproval. They believed that this was completely a fantasy and that such a machine was impossible to build.
