In the early morning, a tired-looking Gu Xiaomeng was still writing at his desk in the secret room, completely unaware that Gu Minzhang had walked in.
"The time is up, come out!"
"Which country's time is it?"
"When declaring defeat, time is the same for any country!" After saying that, Gu Minzhang left without looking back.
Gu Xiaomeng glanced at the waste paper on the floor, sighed, stood up and left the secret room.
"During the time you were recalling the cipher machine, two things happened, one was good news and the other was bad news."
"Old rule, eat sweets first!" Gu Xiaomeng said with a smile.
"According to internal information, Wang Tianxiang, director of the General Secret Service, has found reliable evidence that Kim Shengxian is a Soviet spy."
"Really? This is unexpected good news!" Speaking of this, Gu Xiaomeng pondered for a moment, "Then it's time to take medicine!"
"Director Dai already knows about your performance on the code ship, and he gave you an eight-word instruction."
"The crime cannot be punished, and the law must be punished on the spot?"
"If you don't do this next time, you will make up for your past mistakes!"
"You want to make up for the mistake? Then father, why do you say this is bad news?"
"Because the work he asked you to make up for is the Enigma machine!"
Hearing this, the corner of Gu Xiaomeng's mouth couldn't help but twitch, and he said with a gloomy expression: "From last night to now, I have written more than ten pages, but... I remember less and less each time. Dad, I really tried hard to remember,
When she called me to assist, I remembered every part, every gear, every minute and every inch in my mind. But now... my mind seems to have been washed by water, and I can't remember anything. You
You're right, maybe... I'm not suitable for this job at all, because I don't even have the most basic ability to remember things instantly."
"It's not your fault." Gu Minzhang comforted, "Intelligence agents are also human beings. Their thoughts, feelings, and memories are all determined by ordinary cells. No one can break through the limits of human beings. Memory is like a tide, with its own ups and downs.
Even a top-notch genius with such a high-intensity mechanical memory can only retain less than one-third of the memory after twenty-four hours. Without the assistance of drawings and notes, no one would be able to return to the ship again after getting off the ship.
Restore the most sophisticated cipher machine in the world. And this is one of the most important reasons why you can get off the ship alive."
Unexpectedly, Gu Xiaomeng categorically denied it after hearing this: "No! There is one person who remembers everything!"
"who?"
"Chief of the Intelligence Section of the Confidential Division, Li Ningyu!"
…
"Knock knock knock..."
"Please come in!"
Before he finished speaking, Bai Xiaonian opened the door and walked in, "Are you busy, Colonel Li?"
"I wonder what Secretary Bai has on business?"
Bai Xiaonian smiled and said, "It's business and private. No, I just went to the General Affairs Department and found that Colonel Li hadn't received his military rank yet, so I sent it over."
"Thank you, Secretary Bai."
After Bai Xiaonian glanced around, he lowered his voice and said, "Don't worry, Jin Shengxian is here!"
Li Ningyu didn't want to but replied expressionlessly: "Whether he recruits or not, it has nothing to do with me."
"What about Section Chief Ming? His affairs are always related to you, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Li Ningyu suddenly sank her face, "Secretary Bai, what do you mean by this?"
"That's the literal meaning." Bai Xiaonian said, "Maybe what I just said is not accurate enough, it should have something to do with us. I heard that now the general affairs department is temporarily handled by that Ah Cheng.
And Section Chief Akira has been temporarily transferred by that Tatsukawa Hihara to be his deputy, in order to thoroughly investigate the cause of Morita's death."
Hearing this, countless thoughts flashed through Li Ningyu's mind. Fortunately, at this moment, a subordinate knocked on the door and walked in, so he did not reveal his true thoughts in front of Bai Xiaonian.
"Section Chief, I have changed the documents you asked me to change according to your instructions. Please take a look." After saying that, he placed a thick stack of documents on Li Ningyu's desk.
Bai Xiaonian on the side glanced at her angrily and said goodbye: "Since Section Chief Li has official duties, I won't disturb him too much!"
After saying that, Bai Xiaonian turned and left. Only then did Li Ningyu look at the subordinate who was waiting for praise and looking smug, and said in a warning tone: "Next time, let me catch you stealing at the door.
Listen, I will kick you out of the Intelligence Department, do you hear me?"
"I……"
"I asked you if you heard me?!"
"Yes, section chief, I heard it." The subordinate never thought that his flattery would actually hit the horse's hoof, so he had to admit his mistake obediently.
While the two of them were talking, Li Ningyu had already read through the document she had brought. "On page seven, the Morse code 'stop' is still the wrong 'to'; on page nineteen, twenty-one
Point four seventy-nine, it should be twenty-one four seventy-three, there are fifty-two pages, sixty pages, eighty-eight pages, a total of thirty-nine errors. You only corrected twenty-seven. This is according to my
Changed according to the order?"
"Section Chief, isn't it true that I am trying to make a quick decision...Besides, you talk too much, I can't remember it!"
"That's no reason! I didn't ask you to eavesdrop at the door, and I don't need you to help me out. Besides, you said you couldn't remember the thirty-nine mistakes, so why can I remember them?
Yes, why don’t you close the door to the Intelligence Department?”
"Isn't it too hot?"
"In the confidentiality code, is there a clause that allows you not to close the office environment when the weather is hot?"
With just one sentence, the subordinate was left speechless.
"Take the document back and revise it again. No more omissions or errors are allowed. Also remember, the Intelligence Department is free to come and go and does not foster mediocre people. If you are willing to keep the door open to read magazines and apply nail polish, you
Just walk out on your own and never come back! Do you hear me?"
"Yes, section chief!" After saying that, the subordinate walked towards the door dejectedly holding the thick pile of documents.
However, just as she was about to reach the door, Li Ningyu's voice rang again, "Wait!"
"Section Chief, do you have any other instructions?"
"Do you have any spare money?"
This time, the subordinate was stunned when he asked, "Section Chief, what do you mean by this?"
"Nothing, I just want to tell you that according to my analysis, the exchange rate of the U.S. dollar will definitely rise sharply in the near future. If you have spare money, you can find an investment with a securities company and you should be able to make money."
As soon as these words came out, the subordinate's eyes immediately lit up, "Is it true, section chief?"
"of course it's true."
"Great! Thank you section chief!"
After saying that, the subordinate walked out happily, but the next second she stepped out of the door, her expression suddenly changed, "Hey! What's so big? I'm not just flipping through newspapers to speculate in dollars, throwing them.
Winking, catching men..."
At the same time, in Jin Shenghuo's office.
Jin Shenghuo watched Gu Minzhang take the ring handed to him by Gu Xiaomeng, and couldn't help but said to himself: "Leopard head? I have benefited a lot. If you are not satisfied anymore, you are greedy."
"Director Jin, this is a piece of my father's heart. As a commemoration of our shared hardships on the code ship, it is a work of Cartier designer Ms. Jenny. I think it matches you very well."
"Comparing me with a leopard, are you praising me or derogating me?"
"Cheetahs are good at hiding. In order to stalk their prey, they can crawl for hours without moving. Cheetahs are good at hunting. They are the fastest beasts on the grassland. Once they lock on the target, they move as fast as lightning. This is not just like Director Jin.
Are you exactly the same?"
However, Jin Shenghuo just smiled after hearing this, "Although this sounds pleasant, unfortunately, it is not right! Leopards are lone hunters, and they are responsible for life and death. I, Jin, am the best at forming alliances. Just like the last time the code ship escaped danger,
Only through sincerity and unity can we avert danger, right?"
With that said, Jin Shenghuo returned the brocade box containing the ring to Gu Xiaomeng, and said earnestly: "Xiaomeng, give it to Commander Zhang! You should pay homage to the temple when you first come here, otherwise Commander Zhang will be strange! Between you and me
There is no need for these polite formalities."
"Thank you, Director, for your advice!" Gu Xiaomeng said sincerely while taking back the ring.
"There's no need to thank you. I'm just interested in my ally. Why did he secretly oppose me several times on the code ship before?"
Gu Xiaomeng, on the other hand, learned the lesson of being timid in front of Morita, and immediately put on the appearance of a young lady, and said arrogantly: "Who made you so domineering? I just want to see who can remove me from the Commander's Secretariat.
How capable are the people who have been transferred out!"
"Is that why?"
"Why, you don't believe me? Humph! Believe it or not!"
Jin Shenghuo smiled and said, "Believe it! Of course I believe it! This is your personality, Gu Minzhang's daughter, it makes sense! Okay, let's get back to the subject. If you come to report today, you should be assigned a job. It's like this,
There are three sections in the Confidential Division: the Intelligence Section, headed by Li Ningyu, is in charge of intelligence deciphering; the Telecommunications Section, headed by Liu Zidong, is in charge of radio station reconnaissance; and there is the Information Room, where we raise young ladies and wives. You choose!"
"Then you still need to ask? Of course it's the Intelligence Department!" Gu Xiao said without thinking.
Jin Shenghuo was naturally not surprised by this answer, but he still couldn't help but ask: "Have you not had enough of Section Chief Li's temper?"
"Some people's temperament is their ability, and some people's ability is their temper. This is what my father told me. If you want to be a young lady and a wife, why are you here? Just go to Mrs. Wang's salon and sit down.
Already?"
"Um, no, no, no!" Jin Shenghuo said hurriedly after hearing this, "You are too beautiful. Mrs. Wang will not let you enter their living room. But Xiaomeng, you have to think clearly, the Intelligence Department is like that
The code ship, if you go there every day, no, every moment on the ship, you will neither die nor be reincarnated."
Gu Xiaomeng replied word for word: "As I wish!"
…
Half an hour later, Gu Xiaomeng walked towards Li Ningyu's office with a pot of clivia in her arms. Unexpectedly, before she reached the door of the office, she ran into the subordinate who had just been reprimanded by Li Ningyu.
But the man just glanced at Gu Xiaomeng, ignored him, and knocked on the door of Li Ningyu's office.
"Come in!"
"Section Chief, the message No. 316 has been translated."
Li Ningyu nodded first, then suddenly turned her head and shouted at Gu Xiaomeng, who was about to come in, "Get out!"
"I……"
Just as Gu Xiaomeng was about to say something, Li Ningyu turned to the subordinate and said, "Close the door."
The subordinate responded quickly, then glanced at Gu Xiaomeng provocatively and closed the office door.
Ten minutes later, he opened the door from the inside and said to Gu Xiaomeng: "The section chief wants you to come in!"
Gu Xiaomeng narrowed her eyes after hearing this, and then walked slowly in. But just after she entered the door, she suddenly turned around and imitated the man's tone and expression and replied: "Close the door!"
This made the man very angry, but he didn't dare to get angry in front of Li Ningyu, so he could only snort angrily and close the door.
Gu Xiaomeng was like a general who had won a battle. He excitedly put the pot of clivia in his hand on Li Ningyu's desk, "Sister Yu, this is for you!"
But Li Ningyu said without even raising her head: "I don't want it!"
"You have to want it!" Gu Xiaomeng said reluctantly, "I took a horticulture course when I was in college. This Clivia has thick leaves and is full of pores, which can absorb dust in the air and is very helpful for relieving your asthma."
Seeing that Li Ningyu remained silent, Gu Xiaomeng continued to say intentionally or unintentionally: "Moreover, this is also the favorite flower of the Japanese Emperor. When Manchukuo was founded, he selected two of the most precious varieties and gave them to
I gave it to Puyi as a congratulatory gift."
However, before he finished speaking, Li Ningyu suddenly put down the pen in his hand and said with some words: "Since you are so wary of me, you shouldn't come to the Intelligence Department."
"Sister Yu, what did you say?"
Li Ningyu chuckled lightly, "You have reflected on your words and deeds on the ship, and you regret what you said to me. That's why you used this pot of Clivia to show me that you are loyal to me.
Chairman Wang and the Japanese, right?"
As soon as these words came out, Gu Xiaomeng was like a child whose thoughts were guessed, and replied coquettishly: "I, Sister Yu, you guessed it again. Yes, I said that the emperor is indeed an additional
It’s my own selfishness, but treating asthma is my sincerity, I just don’t want you to have any misunderstandings about me, Sister Yu.”
"Call Section Chief Li!" Li Ningyu crossed her arms and stared at Gu Xiaomeng, saying word by word.
Gu Xiaomeng immediately stood at attention and said respectfully: "Yes! Section Chief!"
"It's Section Chief Li!" Li Ningyu corrected again.
"Yes, Section Chief Li!"
"Go back and tell Director Jin to arrange for you to go to the reference room. I have no shortage of people here." He glanced at the pot of Clivia again, "Take it with you as well. In addition to the other things in my office,
Confidential documents, don’t put anything else aside.”
Unexpectedly, instead of retreating, Gu Xiaomeng said sharply: "No! Sister Yu, uh, no, it's Section Chief Li. You lied. The Intelligence Department is short of people! Very short!"
