Lu Ming wanted to ask Du Juan several times, but he felt that it was rare to see each other. The two of them finally got together, so they should say something happy.
If you ask Du Juan whether he has joined the Communist Party, you can imagine that the atmosphere will be unbearable, and it will definitely ruin the scenery.
The two of them were eating and chatting casually about some trivial matters, but they had their own minds and kept talking about random things, losing their previous tacit understanding.
"Do you know Du Quan?" When he was about to finish eating, Lu Ming couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
"We know each other, he and I are from the same labor union." Du Juan smiled, but her heart couldn't help but feel a little thump, as if she had finally entered the topic.
"Well, what do you think of him?" Lu Ming asked.
"He is very nice. He likes to help people and is very good at interpersonal communication. Why are you asking about this? How do you know him?" Du Juan said while secretly looking at Lu Ming's face.
"I know him because he cooperates with us. He is an informant of the Fuxing Society." Lu Ming said calmly.
"What?" Du Juan was shocked, as if he had been punched by someone under the lightning.
"He was arrested by the Fuxing Society a few days ago and confessed to many people. Then the Fuxing Society released him. He became an informant of the Fuxing Society and regularly reported to the Fuxing Society about the trade union." Lu Ming said calmly.
.
"Then...I have to..." Du Juan suddenly understood why Lu Ming was looking for her.
Lu Ming didn't ask any more questions. There was no need to ask. The matter was already very clear. After paying the bill, Lu Ming quickly took Du Juan back to Wanguo Apartment.
Walls have ears, and some things cannot be said casually outside. Lu Ming's career has made him develop a defensive mentality.
Du Juan wanted to leave immediately and tell other comrades in the organization about Du Quan's rebellion, but she knew from the look in Lu Ming's eyes that he would not let her go at this time.
She originally really wanted to spend a day with Lu Ming, so that Lu Ming could forget his worries and live happily on this special day, but now she has no such intention at all.
After returning to the apartment, Lu Ming asked Du Juan to sit down, and then handed the piece of paper to Du Juan to read.
After seeing it, Du Juan's face suddenly turned pale. She was not afraid, but angry. How could a person be so shameless?
Du Quan not only belonged to the same labor union as her, he was also the leader of this branch union. He organized the usual gatherings and various activities.
Originally, in Du Juan's heart, Du Quan was a role model, a Communist who was willing to sacrifice himself for the working people. He was selfless, willing to contribute, and had an iron will.
In Du Juan's life journey, Du Quan can be said to be a great spiritual mentor and a beacon that illuminates her heart when she is confused.
She once thought in her heart: As a human being, she should be a person like Du Quan. If everyone in this world was as upright and ambitious as Du Quan, then the vision of communism he described would no longer be
Dreams will soon become reality.
But this thin piece of paper was like a heavy hammer, shattering her dreams and leaving her spiritual world in chaos, almost to the point of collapse.
Lu Ming sighed and did not press her. He could see that Du Juan suffered a heavy blow.
"Are you planning to arrest me?" Du Juan raised her head and asked.
"So everything written on the paper is true?" Lu Ming asked, looking into Du Juan's eyes.
"So what if it's true?" Du Juan did not avoid it, but looked into Lu Ming's eyes.
"If it's true, exit immediately. It's not too late." Lu Ming sighed again.
Dujuan didn't speak, lowered her head in thought, and twisted her hands together.
When Du Juan joined the organization, her supervisor told her not to admit her party membership to anyone at any time, even her own comrades.
But she couldn't hide it from Lu Ming. She could hide it from anyone, but Lu Ming was not included, because Lu Ming was the one who gave her new life.
"There are several materials to report you, and I suppressed them all. If it weren't for this, you would have been arrested long ago. I still have a way to stop it at the Shanghai Station of Fuxing Society, in case the police station and other departments also received such reports.
, if they want to arrest you, they won't notify me first." Lu Ming said solemnly.
Seeing Du Juan's expression, Lu Ming understood that Du Juan had really joined the Communist Party organization, and what he was most worried about had happened.
At this moment, he would rather Dujuan swear and tell her that everything is false and that someone else framed her.
Lu Ming thought Du Juan was hesitating, struggling, and even considering what to do next, whether to leave the organization, and how to land safely.
But Lu Ming was completely wrong. Not to mention the complete opposite, it was also completely different.
Du Juan was not thinking about his own affairs, but was thinking about who Du Quan had reported and how much loss it would bring to the organization.
It's a pity that she is just an ordinary low-level party member and knows very little about the internal affairs of the organization. Apart from contacting the front line and accepting some tasks, she knows almost nothing about other things.
Although she first met Du Quan and actively requested to join the organization under Du Quan's inspiration, it was not Du Quan who recruited her to join the party, but someone else arranged by the organization - her superior.
So how did Du Quan find out that she had joined the organization? Could it be that his superior also rebelled?
Thinking about the cuckoo, I felt a little dizzy and my body couldn't help but feel cold.
Lu Ming came over, held her in his arms, touched her shoulders and said, "It's okay, I'm here."
Du Juan curled up in his arms and soon started to cry.
She was not scared, but sad.
For the first time, she tasted the feeling of being betrayed, and the person who betrayed her was the perfect mentor in her mind. In an instant, her world view collapsed.
This kind of betrayal is even more heartbreaking than when she was sold to Shanghai as a child. Her family sold her because they couldn't support her. Life forced them to sell her body.
Now that Du Quan has sold her, what he has destroyed is her spirit and the vision of life that she has always been proud of.
"Promise me to quit that organization. It's not too late. I knew it was too late when something happened to Miss Ning. You can't let anything happen again." Lu Ming said anxiously.
"I know, I know." Du Juan kept nodding in his arms.
"Why don't you go to the United States? Instead of staying in China, you can go to the United States to keep Mingzhu and Ning Xiner company." Lu Ming tried to persuade him with a reason.
"No, I'm not going anywhere. It's okay. Don't worry." Du Juan's bones are much more resilient than Mingzhu and Ning Xiner. This is also the nature of children who come from a bitter background.
After sending Du Juan back, Lu Ming immediately called Zhang Ziyang, and the two found a place to drink together.
"What's wrong? You're so depressed, thinking about Mingzhu again?" Zhang Ziyang asked with concern.
"It's not about the pearl, it's about the cuckoo." Lu Ming sighed.
"Ah, what happened to Dujuan? What happened?" Zhang Ziyang was startled.
"She joined the Communist Party on her own initiative and was reported." Lu Ming said with a bitter smile.
"Why is this girl so crazy? How can she join the Communist Party? Isn't she seeking death? You, your discipline is not strict, you need to be disciplined!" Zhang Ziyang said in surprise.
"I'm just taking care of it. That's why I came to you. You know the list of informants in your bureau, right?" Lu Ming asked.
"Who are you? I think you are still protecting her. She must withdraw from the organization as soon as possible. Stop being an old hen protecting the chickens, otherwise something will happen to her sooner or later."
Zhang Ziyang knows what it means to join the Communist Party. The Shanghai Police Department receives various orders from above every day, and arresting the Communist Party has become one of their most important tasks.
The reward amounts for leaders of different levels of the Communist Party are marked in large characters. The Nanjing government spared no expense in this regard.
"Don't talk about useless things. Let me ask you about business. Do you have the police station's informant list?" Lu Ming seemed very impatient and lost his patience when talking.
"I only have a part of it, haven't I left it all in your hands? Are you afraid that our police station will receive a tip about Du Juan?"
Zhang Ziyang knew that Lu Ming was still protecting Du Juan, but if he continued to do so, he would harm her, which Zhang Ziyang didn't want to see.
"That's right, you go back and help me check if the police station has any information about Du Juan." Lu Ming didn't say anything else, but he obviously had no confidence in Du Juan's ability to withdraw from the organization.
Zhang Ziyang nodded and said solemnly: "In that case, you'd better send her away. If she really joins the Communist Party and refuses to quit, it will be too dangerous to stay in Shanghai."
"Send her away? Send her to where? I can still protect her in Shanghai. If she leaves Shanghai, who will protect her?" Lu Ming's words were completely unreasonable and unreasonable.
Lu Ming did think about sending Du Juan to the United States, but Du Juan refused. He also thought about asking Sheng Muyi to transfer Du Juan to Sheng's Enterprise in Hong Kong, but he also felt it was inappropriate.
The situation in Hong Kong is even more complicated than that in Shanghai. All forces in the world are competing in Hong Kong. The Japanese, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party all have their own forces in Hong Kong.
A darkened Hong Kong may be even more dangerous.
After all, Lu Ming still couldn't bear to let Du Juan stay away from him. In his heart, Du Juan was always the weak girl he knew at the beginning and needed his protection.
