At dawn, the four of them gathered in the Intelligence Department.
Wear casual clothes today to make it easier to move around.
To go to Shaqianba in the western suburbs, you can take a school bus. There are several regular school buses to and from the city every day to facilitate teachers and students to purchase various supplies.
There are fewer shops in remote merchants in the western suburbs, and there are even fewer supplies in the stores. You often have to take a school bus to Ciqikou or the city to purchase goods.
Moreover, due to the excessive influx of schools in Shaqiba, many faculty and staff have been unable to find housing as dormitories, so they have to rent in the city, and they also need to take school buses to and from school every day.
To avoid the morning rush hour school bus, the four of them went to the school bus route in the afternoon to wait.
The school bus had no fixed stopping place along the way, so the speed was fast and slow. After waiting for 20 minutes and not seeing the school bus, the four of them walked to the side of the road and sat on the stone steps.
Long Hao looked at the street and said, "Li Mu came to the mountain city very early. Otherwise, how could he have rented a place in Shaxianba? The location is so good."
"It's not strange." Zhu Yue thought it was normal.
Li Mu's identity is that of a Japanese spy, so he can plan ahead and be one step ahead of others.
"He often travels between the western suburbs and the city. I'm afraid he won't be able to ride on the same bus with him if he is followed and monitored." Song Shutang observed the current situation of school buses and felt that it was not appropriate to ride on the same bus.
The quantity is small.
long time.
The number of people on the car is relatively fixed.
Li Mucong might not have noticed it once or twice, but it was hard to guarantee that the secret would not be revealed as time went by.
"I have arranged two bicycles at Shaxianba. If Li Mu takes a bus to the city, we can follow him by bicycle." Zhu Yue had realized this before and had already made arrangements in advance.
Cars are rare these days.
Use it to attract attention.
Bicycles are much better.
Just as we were waiting for the bus, we saw a lot of bicycles walking on the road. Judging from the appearance, most of them were faculty, staff and students. They must be heading to Shaqie Dam.
While they were talking, the school bus approached. Long Hao walked towards the bus first, keeping distance from Zhu Yue and others, and stood on the roadside with his hand to stop the bus.
There is no problem if we park the car and observe secretly.
Long Hao found a seat and sat down.
Not seeing Long Hao's reminder, Song Shutang and the others stopped the school bus when it drove in front of them.
Everyone took their seats.
Zhu Yue and Bi Sheng were sitting together.
There was no separate seat, so Song Shutang sat next to a female student.
There was a bulging cloth bag at the female student's feet.
It seems that I need to bring some things for my classmates when I go to the city.
The school bus was bumpy and many people closed their eyes to concentrate. The female students were holding a magazine and reading in trance.
"July" Poetry Magazine.
Song Shutang glanced at the poems. Most of them were free poems, mainly lyrical, and there were also a few close-ups exposing the heinous crime of the Japanese invaders bombing mountain cities.
"You also like poetry?" The female student noticed that the person on the side was looking at the magazine in her hand, so she asked.
“I have read some of Mr. Gao Huang’s ‘July School’ before.”
"Which article do you like best?" Female students have received higher education and are active in thinking and refuse to be cliche. Even if they meet for the first time, they can have a happy conversation.
"Sing out the hatred that simmers in your heart."
"Sing out the true love that is stagnating in your heart."
"And sing about all the dead matter and filth trapped in your ancient soul."
Song Shutang recited a few lines of poetry softly, and the female student immediately said: "I also like Mr. Gao Huang's song "Song for the Motherland" the most."
"What a coincidence."
"My name is Hu Zhaoying and I am a student at Shancheng University."
"Gu Yaoxing."
“Several of our classmates who love poetry have established a ‘Spark Poetry Club’. If you are interested, you can join.”
"Thank you for the invitation. I'll definitely do it if I get the chance."
"The poetry club is in Shancheng University. If you come, you can ask your classmates."
"good."
"I still don't know which school you are from?" Hu Zhaoying was a little curious.
Seeing that Song Shutang was almost the same age as her, she thought he was also a student.
"Chuo University."
"Considering half an alumnus." A smile appeared on Hu Zhaoying's face.
Chuo University moved west to this site, but there was a serious shortage of classrooms and facilities. It often borrowed the classrooms of Yamaseong University for classes. The two schools shared the auditorium and shared facilities. Students could cross-teach classes and teachers could teach each other.
The two schools are in the same boat and help each other.
Therefore, Hu Zhaoying said that the two of them were half schoolmates.
Talking about getting closer is more about speculation.
The car drove through Niujiaituo, Shangqing Temple, Lianglukou, Hualong Bridge, Xiaolongkan and finally arrived at Shaxie Dam.
After getting off the car, I waved goodbye to Hu Zhaoying.
While in the car, Zhu Yue and the others noticed Song Shutang talking to Hu Zhaoying.
But Zhu Yue and Long Hao knew that Song Shutang didn't like to strike up conversations, so why were they acting out of character today?
As for your statement that everyone loves beauty, Zhu Yue and Long Hao don't believe it at all.
So after getting off the car, he stepped forward and asked, "What's going on?"
"The female student who was in the car just now is called Hu Zhaoying. The cloth bag at her feet contained a lot of daily necessities purchased for her classmates, as well as letters that she had retrieved for her classmates. I saw one of the letters was written to Li Mu from "Song Shutang told the reason why he struck up a conversation with Hu Zhaoying.
"Li Mucong's letter?" Long Hao asked.
Zhu Yue explained: "In the past year, Shaxieba has leveled many hills on Songlinpo, forming a stepped distribution. The construction of houses has been so irregular that there is no time to decide on the house number. The post office deliveryman often cannot find the receiving address. The letter can only be returned via the original route, causing a lot of inconvenience.
The situation did not improve after that, because the number of houses continued to increase. In order to avoid this dilemma, the post office sent letters to the school. The recipients were mostly students, faculty and staff and people in the cultural circles, and they knew each other's addresses well.
Hu Zhaoying probably happened to go to the city and picked up the letter sent to Shancheng University from the post office on the way. He does not necessarily know Li Mucong."
Waiting for the post office to deliver the letter may take some time.
Hu Zhaoying went to the city to pick it up on the way to save time.
Furthermore, the post office knows Hu Zhaoying, a student from Shancheng University, so it can safely hand over the letter to her.
Hu Zhaoying doesn’t know Li Mucong?
It is indeed possible.
However, Song Shutang said: "It doesn't matter whether you make a move on a whim or not."
"That's right." Zhu Yue thought it didn't matter, it was just an interlude.
The four of them then went to Li Mucong's residence.
There is a street called Hengjie right next to the entrance of Shancheng University. Li Mu has lived at No. 18 Hengjie, in an old-fashioned house with a brick and wood structure.
Passing through Shancheng University from Hengjie, you will reach Songlin Slope. There is a dense pine forest of about 200 acres on the slope of a large hill. It belongs to Shancheng University and has not yet been used. It is now loaned to Central University to build a campus.
It can be seen that Li Mu's residence is in an excellent location.
When you arrive nearby, you will meet the members of the Intelligence Section who were here in advance.
Disguised as a barber and set up a stall on the street.
Bi Sheng stepped forward to shave his beard and talk to him.
Lie on a stool on the street, apply a hot towel to your face, apply ointment, and then shave with a razor.
After a lot of work, Bi Sheng returned to everyone and reported the information he had just obtained by shaving: "Li Mu has not come out from home today."
The barber and shaving booth is a fixed spot for surveillance.
Even if Zhu Yue and the others come here now, they will not take down this stall.
It is close to Yamashiro University and Chuo University. There are many street stalls, including hairdressers, shoe repairs, paper and pens, newspapers, cigarettes, soap and even pawn shops, which have all moved to the entrance of the school.
Many students now need loans to study. Although some fees have been waived, the situation is still not optimistic.
Therefore, pawning things has become a normal thing, and pawnshops have made a lot of money for it. Now they even put their stalls directly in front of the school.
Clothes, suitcases, suitcases, bedding, books, pens, watches, jewelry and all other items are accepted by the pawn shop.
However, the price is not so optimistic.
Placing a fixed point here to keep an eye on Li Mucong works very well.
The stalls change frequently every day, and people come and go without any interruption.
Since Li Mu had not left home since today, Zhu Yue and others retreated a little further to discuss dividing the group into two groups.
"I'm in a group with Bi Sheng, and you're in a group with Long Hao." Zhu Yue said to Song Shutang.
"good."
"We work the night shift and you work the day shift."
"Then you go and rest first." Song Shutang said.
Although housing here is tight, there is no problem for the military commander to find a temporary resting place.
The resting place is not far from Li Mu's residence, entering Shancheng University to Songlin Slope, a newly built house above.
Just when Zhu Yue was about to leave with Bi Sheng, he saw Hu Zhaoying walking towards this direction.
Song Shutang stayed aside to prevent her from seeing him.
Seeing Hu Zhaoying heading towards Li Mu from his residence, he stood and knocked on the door.
Then Li Mu opened the door from the inside.
Immediately afterwards, Hu Zhaoying took out a letter from his bag and handed it to Li Mucong, and the two exchanged a few words.
Li Mu never invited Hu Zhaoying into the house.
But Hu Zhaoying seemed to have something to do and didn't go in. Then he turned around and left, and Li Mu closed the door again.
When Hu Zhaoying left, Zhu Yue said: "The bag containing the items and letters was not on him. It can be seen that Hu Zhaoying had given the things to his classmates and handed the letters to the Shancheng University guard, but he only delivered the letters to Li Mucong personally.
The two of them really know each other.”
I thought that getting the letter was just a matter of passing by.
It was a coincidence that Li Mucong's letter came to him.
But now it seems that Hu Zhaoying and Li Mucong do know each other.
Let Song Shutang get it right!
