Zuo Shaoqing realized that something must have gone wrong. In this case, she was not sure about two things: First, whether it was related to her. As Teacher Nanjia taught her, when something happens, you should first check whether
It would endanger her own safety. Secondly, if something big happened, would she have the opportunity to intervene? What she hoped most was that she could take the opportunity to restore contact with domestic organizations.
On the morning of the third day, Zeng Shaowu finally showed up. As soon as Zuo Shaoqing saw his face, he knew something was going on.
It was raining that day and a bit cold. When Zeng Shaowu came in, his clothes were almost soaked.
He walked into Zuo Shaoqing's room, hurriedly took out a handful of money and put it on the table. He said to her: "Shaoqing, I have something to do these days and can't bring you newspapers and magazines. You have to buy it yourself."
Zuo Shaoqing looked at him calmly and said nothing. He only guessed in his mind what might have happened.
Zeng Shaowu also stared at her gloomily. But his mind was not on what he wanted to say at all. He looked down at the money on the table and didn't speak for a while.
Later, he finally said: "Shaoqing, um, there are two main places to buy newspapers and magazines. One is the 'China Bookstore' on Queen's Road, and the other is a newsstand outside the Hong Kong branch of Xinhua News Agency in Mainland China.
.This newsstand has some newspapers and magazines from mainland China. You can buy whatever you want to read. In a few days, I will send you some money."
Zuo Shaoqing looked at him quietly and asked softly: "Mr. Zeng, what happened?"
Zeng Shaowu looked at the sky outside in a daze, his face even colder. He nodded to her and said: "Shaoqing, something big happened in the north. During this time, we are all busy with this matter. I didn't do anything last night
sleep."[
Zuo Shaoqing stared at him calmly and said nothing. Sure enough, something serious had happened.
Zeng Shaowu looked at the rain dripping down the eaves outside, shook his head, and then turned back and said: "This unlucky weather... damn it... I tell you, the higher-ups are directly responsible for this matter and issued orders directly.
We have to complete the mission! I have to leave now, you can get on with your work."
Zuo Shaoqing understood that the so-called "North" refers to the mainland. He said: "Something big happened in the North." This situation made her surprised and nervous.
Zeng Shaowu waved to her and said, "Let's all be careful and don't cause trouble." He found an umbrella from the corner of the room and left in a hurry.
Zuo Shaoqing sat behind the desk and did not move. She could not ask anything more now. But she was very concerned about this major event that was happening. More importantly, she had lost contact with the organization for more than five years. She really hoped to have one
Opportunity, let her find the organization.
In the afternoon of that day, Zuo Shaoqing also held an umbrella and carried a canvas bag on his shoulder, and went out to buy newspapers.
Hong Kong in the 1950s had just struggled out of World War II. After several years of development, although it showed some colorful colors amidst the gloomy tones, it was still far from being prosperous. Hong Kong looked like
The prosperity of Jin Dynasty will not come for more than ten years.
The Ma Tau Kok area in Kowloon where she lives is very close to Hong Kong's Kai Tak Airport. Countless large and small planes fly overhead every day. In her opinion, those planes almost fly through the narrow gaps between the buildings.
People like Zuo Shaoqing who have just arrived in Hong Kong are surprised by the aircraft that fly extremely low and therefore appear huge. But the locals are already familiar with this and have long been accustomed to the roar of the aircraft.
At this time, Zuo Shaoqing was holding an umbrella and walking quietly through the narrow street.
She looked around and saw that there were low, crowded buildings or tin houses everywhere. Outside every door, there were countless bamboo poles and spider web-like clotheslines. Under the eaves, outside the door, and even on the stage, every
Every small space is filled with junk. The streets are even more narrow and cramped. Pedestrians walk in a hurry in the rain, and their umbrellas always hit other people's heads.
The water on the eaves continued to flow down, splashing on the ground, making the trousers, shoes and socks of pedestrians wet. In addition, the sound of mahjong playing could be heard from almost every door.
Zuo Shaoqing walked slowly among the pedestrians. It was hard to say whether the Hong Kong Intelligence Station would send someone to follow her. But she always maintained vigilance in this regard.
She first went to the "China Bookstore" on Queen's Road. Bookstores at that time were different from today's. Almost every larger bookstore had a counter for selling newspapers. Today's bookstores no longer sell newspapers.
In the "China Bookstore", most of the books and newspapers on the counter were published in the mainland. She browsed in front of the counter and selected a dozen newspapers, mainly provincial newspapers and economic newspapers. These newspapers almost took her to
The canvas bag was stuffed. After that, she went to the Xinhua News Agency Hong Kong Branch on Nathan Road, Tsim Sha Tsui, Kowloon.[
She saw from a distance that there was indeed a newsstand on the side of the Xinhua News Agency's Hong Kong branch. The glass around the newsstand was covered with colorful magazines featuring half-naked beauties. On the stall in front,
It was filled with all kinds of newspapers. However, before Zuo Shaoqing reached the newsstand, he could already feel some tension in the surrounding atmosphere.
While she was flipping through newspapers on the newsstand in front of the newsstand, she occasionally raised her eyes to look around.
When she first arrived in Hong Kong, Zeng Shaowu once took the three of them on a sightseeing trip here. He told them that this was the Hong Kong branch of the Xinhua News Agency. He seemed to be introducing a famous tourist attraction.
But today, the scene here is a little different from that day. There are more police around today, and some people in plainclothes are walking around. Some of them are wearing raincoats, some are holding oilcloth umbrellas, and their faces are expressionless.
They were all dark, and they stared at the passers-by warily.
In this newsstand, there are also some newspapers published in the mainland, mainly central and local party newspapers. Zuo Shaoqing also selected some newspapers and stuffed them into her canvas bag. But in her heart, she was guessing what happened here.
thing.
Intuitively speaking, she couldn't cause trouble and should leave here as soon as possible. She paid the money and quietly left the newsstand, preparing to go back.
However, she had just walked back less than a hundred meters when she unexpectedly saw a familiar face under the awning of a roadside tea stall, as well as the surprise and doubt on his face.
Even some gloomy eyes.
Zuo Shaoqing never expected that the person she saw unexpectedly was Yu Zhidao! Next to him, his former adjutant Yang Zhi sat. They were just like two ordinary passers-by, sitting under the awning and drinking tea.
Another thing Zuo Shaoqing didn't expect was that because of meeting Yu Zhidao, she was unexpectedly involved in the chaos in Hong Kong, which almost endangered her life.
This legendary story will be narrated slowly below. Because the ending of this story also happened in Hong Kong, and it is also closely related to Yu Zhidao. Please read it slowly.
At this time, the Pexpress train heading west from Nanjing to Wuhan was traveling at a snail's pace in the night.
Zuo Shaoqing, who was sitting in front of the car, looked at the dark night outside. She could neither see the side nor the head. Because she was going to Wuhan, how on earth could she find the fifth lurking group, how could she find the "water"
"Gourd", she had no choice now. This time she went, it was almost like looking for a needle in a haystack.
About three days after Zuo Shaoqing took the train to Wuhan, Ye Gongjin, who was far away in Taipei, heard some good news that surprised him, made him angry, but also made him happy.
At this time, it was already late at night in Taipei. There was silence in the entire Intelligence Bureau building.
Recently, when Ye Gongjin and Pan Qiwu discussed the "Zuo Case", it was always late at night. He felt that it was more conducive for him to make the right decision in the dead of night.
These pieces of good and bad news were all brought to him by Pan Qiwu.
The first thing is that Zhao Minggui's team and individuals from Jinan have all been transferred to Wuhan. They have now settled in Wuhan with appropriate identities. The main task Pan Qiwu assigned to Zhao Minggui's team is to find You Shaoqing.
As Ye Gongjin had judged, finding You Shaoqing was indeed a very difficult task. Later, with the help of Pan Qiwu, Zhao Minggui finally found You Shaoqing in Wuhan, but he went in a big circle and used some shocking tricks.
It was a shameless move that also brought him trouble.
The second thing is that three days ago, Wei Mingshui's group, where You Shaoqing was a member, unexpectedly took the initiative to contact the bureau headquarters. Last night, the Telecommunications Office had conducted a second wireline contact with Wei Mingshui's group.
Pan Qiwu told Ye Gongjin that Wei Mingshui's team had been calling the headquarters for more than a week. The telecommunications office received the call signal accidentally.
The Telecommunications Office conducted a technical analysis of these two wire signal recordings. It came to two conclusions: First, the operator was indeed Liu Xi from Wei Mingshui's group, and the reporting fingering was consistent with the existing samples. Second, there was something wrong with the radio station. It didn't seem to be the case.
The lurking group was equipped with a military radio station instead of a civilian radio station. Therefore, we cannot rule out the possibility that Liu Xi, or even Wei Mingshui's entire group, had been uncovered by the Communist Party and "reversely used" by the Communist Party.
Pan Qiwu said cautiously: "Director, if this situation is true, we should be more cautious."
Ye Gongjin couldn't help laughing after listening to Pan Qiwu's introduction to the situation, "Brother Qiwu, the Telecommunications Department is a bit dogmatic. Just imagine, if the Communist Party wants to 'reverse use' Wei Mingshui's group, why should they be allowed to use civilian radio stations? The Communist Party is not that stupid.
.They also have military radios. I judge that Wei Mingshui's group is safe."
Pan Qiwu thought for a while and said: "The director is right, it is indeed the truth. It is possible that Wei Mingshui used some method to build another radio station, which is unknown."
Ye Gongjin nodded, "It's possible. So, do you know their specific location?"
Pan Qiwu shook his head, "We asked twice, but Team Wei never mentioned it. I don't know why."
