"You have to be more careful when doing things in the future, otherwise you will bring trouble to Lu Ming." Sheng Muyi said to Du Juan in the tone of an eldest sister.
"Yes, I know." Du Juan replied in a low voice.
"Don't take part in trade union activities in the future. There are a lot of people from the Qinghong Gang there. They are spies from the police station." Sheng Muyi said.
"Oh, so that's what happened?" Du Juan couldn't believe it. She thought that those participating in trade union activities were all workers' activists.
She participated in the trade union activities of Yangpu Shu Power Plant, and Wang Kaiyun was also one of the activists. However, for unknown reasons, Wang Kaiyun was not arrested this time.
"You have such a kind heart that you can't tell the difference between good and bad. The people in the Qinghong Gang don't have any words written on their faces. Don't think that the gangs are all lousy people. Not necessarily. They may be better than the union leaders you know."
Being positive and having a sense of justice." Sheng Muyi said.
"Well, Sister Muyi, I really can't see it, and I still don't understand why the military and police arrested me." Du Juan said aggrievedly.
"Fool, you were reported by them." Sheng Muyi patted Du Juan's hand.
"So everyone in that union is in danger?" Du Juan was a little nervous.
"That's not necessarily true. They reported you for a purpose. They just wanted to use you to attack the Sheng family. They may not be targeting the union itself, but no matter what, you should not participate in that union's activities in the future." Sheng Muyi said.
After Du Juan was arrested, Sheng Muyi was very sensitive and felt that the matter was not that simple, so she asked her subordinates to investigate the reason for Du Juan's arrest. It turned out that the union where Du Juan often participated in activities had several members of the Qinghong Gang.
They reported Du Juan obviously to the Sheng family, and there might be some shady activities behind it.
Sheng Muyi knew very well that as the government's minions, the Qinghong Gang controlled many labor unions in Shanghai.
The government relies on the Qinghong Gang to disrupt the labor movement and student movement activities, and even uses the Qinghong Gang to find hidden underground parties. In exchange for the Qinghong Gang, the Qinghong Gang engages in illegal business to make huge profits.
Of course, the Qinghong Gang is also divided into several factions. Du Yuesheng's faction basically does not get involved in such partisan disputes. He helps the government undermine the labor movement and the student movement for his own benefit. After all, strikes, class strikes, demonstrations and other activities will have a negative impact on him.
negatively impact the business.
Sheng Muyi drove Du Juan back to the Sheng family and told Du Juan a few words, asking her to tell several newly released female workers not to participate in social activities without authorization in the future.
Du Juan nodded, said nothing more, and walked back to the spinning mill.
Although Lu Ming and Sheng Muyi tried to persuade her in different ways, hoping that she would not go too far and worrying that she would suffer a loss, she still insisted on her own point of view in her heart. She wanted to be a useful person to society.
After listening to the speech of the union leader, she felt that she had found the direction of life and the goal of struggle.
Her life is no longer confused, nor does she need to live in a hazy or drunken state of mind, but to make every day of her life meaningful.
Because she is not only living for herself, but also for many sisters in the factory, and for many people like her in China.
An Yi returned to Wanguo Apartment and told Mr. Dong about the situation of the connection.
She felt mixed emotions and felt a little depressed. Although she took the lead, she had no tasks. She had to stay in this apartment with nothing to do, waiting for news from the Shanghai Working Committee of the Underground Party.
Not only could she not take the initiative to find things to do, she had to ask Lu Ming for advice even when she left the apartment building, not to mention that Mr. Dong always talked about "not violating discipline".
"It looks like the situation is really serious." Mr. Dong frowned after learning about the situation of An Yi's joint.
"Of course it's very serious. So many of our comrades have been arrested, but we can't do anything to help. I offered to help, but they didn't believe that we had this ability at all, and just told us to be careful. This is not looking down on people.
"?" An Yi said angrily.
"Don't be angry. This comrade has good intentions. Considering that you have just arrived in Shanghai, you are not familiar with the situation and have no social connections, so you can't help much. He doesn't want you to take risks," Mr. Dong advised.
"We don't have to take risks, we can ask Lu Ming for help." An Yi said.
"I think he can't protect himself now. He has been detained in Nanjing for more than half a month, which shows that the Fuxing Society is also investigating him internally. We can't put him in trouble at this time." Mr. Dong knows Lu Ming far better than An Yi.
"Well, you're right, but the feeling of helplessness here is so uncomfortable. I really want to go back to the security office of the headquarters. That's my battlefield." An Yi said distressedly.
When Lu Ming returned to the apartment building after get off work, Ning Zetao and Yuan Mingzhu were waiting for him in the foyer.
Lu Ming sighed in his heart, he was really doomed.
Although he accomplished something very important today and persuaded Dai Li to release many people, Ning Xiner's matter has not made much progress yet.
It was confirmed that Dai Li had cooperated with the Japanese to capture Ning Xiner. It should be said that he was 70% to 80% sure, but he could not find a breakthrough to solve this matter for the time being.
The key is that he has a bigger doubt in his heart. Dai Li cooperated with the Japanese secret service, so he had to solve a big case. Is it just to kidnap Ning Xiner?
Making such a fuss out of a molehill is obviously not in line with Dai Li's personality and not his style of doing things. Things may not be that simple.
For Dai Li, kidnapping a girl is simply nothing, so why bother getting involved with the Japanese?
Lu Ming mentioned Ning Xiner's disappearance in front of Dai Li today, deliberately emphasizing the possible consequences of the matter.
If this matter is really related to Dai Li, he will definitely be touched, and then Ning Xiner's situation will turn around.
Facing Ning Zetao and Yuan Mingzhu, Lu Ming couldn't say much. He could only smile bitterly and shook his head: "There is no news about Miss Xin'er yet, but I can be sure that whoever kidnapped her will not abuse her.
She will be treated well. They must have a purpose in kidnapping Miss Xin'er. Now we can only wait for the other party to take the initiative and make demands."
Lu Ming felt that he lacked a grasp, just like when Sheng Muyi disappeared and Yuan Ziyuan disappeared, he could only wait, and he waited hard for more than half a year before the situation turned around.
Although that period was extremely difficult, it also allowed him to develop enough patience.
"I know this matter cannot be urgent, but Mingzhu is extremely anxious and insists on coming to see you." Ning Zetao said sadly.
Yuan Mingzhu had never experienced this kind of thing. When her sister Yuan Ziyuan was kidnapped and placed under house arrest, Lu Ming kept deceiving her, saying that Yuan Ziyuan was out for sightseeing and would not be able to come back for a while.
It happened that Ziyuan sent back three letters from home, which was considered as evidence and made Mingzhu believe what he said.
When Yuan Mingzhu knew what happened to her sister, Yuan Ziyuan had already been released by the Japanese.
This time Ning Xiner disappeared right in front of Yuan Mingzhu's eyes, as if she had lost her.
Yuan Mingzhu's feelings for Ning Xiner are deeper than those for Yuan Ziyuan. Whenever she thinks of Ning Xiner these days, she will burst into tears, unable to eat or sleep well, and she has lost weight.
Ning Zetao's mood calmed down instead. He believed that Lu Ming's words were reasonable and that kidnapping Ning Xiner was not the purpose in itself.
The other party is either coming for Lu Ming or Ning Zetao. No matter what the reason is, the other party just wants them to turn against each other.
In other words, Ning Xiner is just a hostage, used for transactions with Lu Ming or Ning Zetao, so Ning Xiner will not be in any danger.
Ning Zetao secretly felt furious in his heart. No matter who kidnapped his sister, when his sister came back safely, the Caobang would not take this breath and would definitely launch a bloody revenge.
Lu Ming invited the two of them to eat at the Eight Great Bowls. Yuan Mingzhu had a sad look on her face and sat there in a daze, unable to eat. Looking at her look, even Lu Ming and Ning Zetao lost their appetite.
"Lu Ming, I miss Sister Xin'er every day. I want to know where she is now and what she is doing. It doesn't matter even if she can't come back right away." Mingzhu said with tears.
"I know, Mingzhu, the world is big and there are many bad people. It is too easy for these bad people to hide someone. What we need now is to be patient and wait for the opportunity. I promise that we will find her." Lu
Ming said.
"Can we just wait? Sister Xin'er definitely wants to see us as soon as possible." Mingzhu was still immersed in her own thoughts.
"There's no need to wait. I have mobilized all the people I can mobilize to search every corner of Shanghai. But there are always some restricted areas that we cannot enter. Maybe Miss Xin'er is hiding there. We are now competing with the bad guys.
Willpower, see who can hold it tight." Lu Ming said like coaxing a child.
Lu Ming felt very guilty and helpless, but as he said, the world is a big place with many bad people, and many things cannot be solved by one person.
Ning Zetao knew that Lu Ming risked his life and rushed back from Nanjing just to deal with this matter. Lu Ming's character would never back down, so he never pressed Lu Ming.
The Caogang gang has not been idle either, dispatching all its personnel to search in Shanghai and on both sides of the canal, but there is still no news.
