Chen Mingxiang looked at Zhang Lu's back and smiled faintly. This was the first target he chose for the lurking mission.
Zhang Lu is the deputy director of the No. 76 Agent Headquarters and the direct guard captain of the traitor Li Shiqun. He is equivalent to a personal bodyguard and has an extraordinary relationship.
If you search carefully among the millions of people in Shanghai for people who can speak Japanese and write Japanese characters, you will find that there are neither too many nor too few.
But as long as Chinese people still have conscience, they will refuse to work for such a spy organization.
You know clearly that it is a pile of smelly dog shit that can spread for ten miles in the wind, and you can't even hide from it!
The agents on No. 76 are all a group of murderous demons and beasts!
If you associate with such people, you will be considered a traitor, and your family and life will be threatened.
The military command and the Central Command, including the underground party, were not lenient at all in dealing with traitors.
After breakfast, Chen Mingxiang took a car to the public concession. Not only did he pretend to be "looking for a job", but he also had an important purpose, which was to survey the terrain.
This is a compulsory course for intelligence officers. Forming a map in your mind can have unexpected effects in emergencies.
"The Japanese do not want to offend the United States, Britain and France now, so the public concession has become the main stronghold of the military command, the Central Command and the underground party."
"How to strengthen the connection with the Ministry of Industry and bureaus in the concession is a very important task. It's just that those foreign uncles are full of birdsong. Without translation, it is really a waste of time." Li Shiqun said while sitting in the car.
The military commander is the main enemy of No. 76, with the largest power and the strongest strength. The measure taken against the traitors who defected to Japan and the Wang Puppet regime is to assassinate them.
Every now and then, the two sides would engage in gun battles, with heavy casualties.
However, Japan has not yet planned to go to war with Britain, the United States, and France, so on the 76th, the military agents hiding in the concession are currently unable to deal with them.
When it comes to the targets of the attack, the military commanders and central commanders are still behind the underground party. After being caught, National Government spies rarely refuse to confess.
But among the underground gangsters caught, it is rare for any of them to confess!
This kind of organization is really scary.
It is also the job of No. 76 to unite the police departments in the concession to crack down on the underground parties lurking in the concession. Therefore, the translation is urgent.
"Director, we can ask the Japanese dispatch agency and the Super High School Division to support a few of our translators. If that doesn't work, we can recruit them externally."
"Shanghai is such a big city, it shouldn't be difficult to find a few translators who can speak Japanese and English, right?" Zhang Lu said casually.
"It's best to use your own social connections and find people with clean financial status to come in." Li Shiqun shook his head and said.
The Japanese are not biological fathers. They did not believe the Chinese people on No. 76 from the beginning.
Not only are the gendarmerie deployed to the secret service headquarters, but every major operation must be reported to the dispatching agency and the Special High School Division.
In such a situation, do you dare to use the translator sent by the Japanese? Can you use it?
The risk of recruitment is even greater. Military commanders, central commanders and the underground party all have talents in this field. If they know this news, they will definitely recruit people to No. 76.
Recruiting comes and going, if a group of enemy intelligence officers are recruited in, the dignified secret service headquarters will become a joke!
Chen Mingxiang slowly returned home carrying a bag of fried peanuts, a bag of pork head meat, and a pound of Huadiao wine.
I wandered around the concession for three days.
He had a general understanding of the topography of the Public Settlement and the French Concession.
Of course, you will definitely not find a "job".
He was not at home, but the door to his home was open and the lights were on.
When Chen Mingxiang saw this scene, he was not afraid at all. Instead, he smiled.
He could guess that he had deliberately appeared in front of Zhang Lu the morning before yesterday, and the timing was perfect.
In the past three days, the other party must have investigated his identity and background and found no problems, so he came to "invite" him to work at No. 76.
"Master Zhang, why are you here in such a big way? You are so negligent. I will boil water to make tea for you. When I was teaching in Qimen County, I made some black tea which was pretty good. You can take a pack with you to taste it when you leave.
"Chen Mingxiang said seemingly surprised.
The room must have been disturbed. With his professional observation skills, he found that many things had been moved.
The few people in the house must have conducted a search of the home.
It is a pity that Chen Mingxiang rented another yard when he returned to Shanghai this time to store valuables and sensitive items.
"Not bad, you are quite good at talking. I like people like you. How about it, brother, have you found a job in the past two days?" Zhang Lu said with a smile.
The boil on the mouse's tail couldn't squeeze out much pus, but this feeling made him feel comfortable.
"Not yet, those British companies are recruiting people, I'm going to go for an interview tomorrow." Chen Mingxiang said a little embarrassed.
"Brother, you are lucky. Agent No. 76 headquarters needs a translator. The director and I have some friendship. I recommend that you go over for an interview tomorrow morning."
"Don't worry, the money you get on the 16th is no less than that of foreign companies. What do you think, will you give me this face?" Zhang Lu said.
"Special Agent Headquarters? No. 76? Master Zhang, what is this place?" Chen Mingxiang didn't seem to know much.
"You will know from now on that we hold the power of life and death in our hands, and even the police station is within our jurisdiction. When working here, you can walk sideways in Shanghai as you please," Zhang Lu said.
"Thank you Mr. Zhang for your kindness, but I'm just a teacher. I'm afraid it's inappropriate for a key department like the secret service headquarters. I'm not that material!" Chen Mingxiang said.
Chen Mingxiang's reaction was in line with Zhang Lu's expectations.
How could an innocent and well-educated teacher be willing to work in such a notorious place as the secret service headquarters?
Moreover, this guy can speak foreign languages and can make a good income in the concession. Now he is not at the end of his rope.
"I didn't let you become an agent. You really are not that material. Why are your legs trembling? Why don't you give me this face?" Zhang Lu said coldly.
In fact, this guy was laughing so hard in his heart.
This guy is really timid, his legs are trembling all the time, and he will probably pee his pants if he says a few more words.
"Don't dare, don't dare, Mr. Zhang, please let me think about it for a few days." Chen Mingxiang was interrupted at this point.
"If you want to hang out in Shanghai, it's an imperial edict from the Secret Service Headquarters. That's it. I'll pick you up and take you to the headquarters tomorrow morning. Don't worry, I'm here to protect you. You won't suffer any disadvantages there!"
Zhang Lu didn't want to argue with Chen Mingxiang.
Sometimes you just can't do things in a sloppy manner. For people like Chen Mingxiang, just be direct and neat, and things will be done.
The ink stains from reading are as smelly and long as foot wraps.
