Since deciding to stay in Haigu, Ma Yuzhen has deliberately avoided public appearances.
She didn't know many people in the National Salvation Association, and those people had basically all moved away.
The only people who know her may be Ma Wenxiang and Xiao Dianrong.
Ma Yuzhen was mainly doing internal work at the time and had little contact with the outside world. Cheng Ruien approached Lu Chengzhou several times, but she did not participate.
"This is all a thing of the Year of the Monkey." Ma Yuzhen swallowed the water and said to cover it up.
"You also worked at No. 22 Kang Bo South Road at that time, right?" Lu Chengzhou asked again.
"I only stayed there for a few days." Ma Yuzhen said helplessly.
Yao Yimin told her that dating Lu Chengzhou had both advantages and disadvantages.
The advantage is that you can get shelter virtually, but the disadvantages are also obvious.
She knew the details of Lu Chengzhou, and Lu Chengzhou also understood her experience.
"Don't participate in this kind of political activity in the future." Lu Chengzhou reminded.
In fact, he was worried about one thing: Zhang Sichang might have met Ma Yuzhen.
If Ma Yuzhen keeps a distance from herself, it doesn't matter that she participated in the National Salvation Association.
When the Anti-Japanese War began, anyone with patriotism would contribute to the Anti-Japanese War.
The current Self-Defense Association was formerly the National Salvation Association.
The director of the Self-Defense Association is not a member of the Communist Party, but a member of the Kuomintang.
Although Ma Yuzhen met Lu Chengzhou by chance and even had a meal.
But this meal made her tremble with fear.
She had to always be on guard against Lu Chengzhou's sudden problems.
Ma Yuzhen now regrets that when she first participated in the student movement, she made too many public appearances.
Now that we have switched to secret work, it has added a lot of troubles.
Fortunately, since graduating from NTU, she has participated in fewer public activities, and her identity as a party member has not been made public.
Ma Yuzhen admired that "ant" comrade who had always concealed his identity and worked silently for the party.
How could he be like Lu Chengzhou, who wore a British disguise and secretly worked for the Japanese? He was simply a complete traitor.
After returning home, Ma Yuzhen kept thinking about her conversation with Lu Chengzhou tonight.
She was afraid that she would say the wrong thing and let Lu Chengzhou know her true identity.
Ma Yuzhen also remembered Yao Yimin's quote from "Ant": When in contact with the enemy, you must first forget your true identity.
At first, Ma Yuzhen couldn't understand it.
Tonight, she had dinner with Lu Chengzhou, and she was really scared by Lu Chengzhou at first.
She kept reminding herself that the Communist Party had nothing to do with her. She was just a Chinese teacher at Zhenhua Middle School.
Slowly, I finally calmed down.
Naturally, Ma Yuzhen didn't know that this was a test for her by "Ant".
Lu Chengzhou could only barely judge Ma Yuzhen's adaptability as passing.
This is still taking into account that she has just started to officially engage in covert front work.
Being an underground traffic officer and the student movement that Ma Yuzhen participated in before are completely different types of jobs.
Before Ma Yuzhen, she could truly express her emotions.
She could use words and actions to denounce the atrocities committed by the Japanese army.
However, now she must be a submissive citizen, at least, not pay too much attention to politics.
As an ordinary teacher, her words and deeds must be consistent.
No matter how much she hates the Japanese, she can't show it.
You know, beside Ma Yuzhen, there is also a military intelligence team leader.
It was easy to deal with Lu Chengzhou. Even if Ma Yuzhen made something wrong, Lu Chengzhou would pretend he didn't notice.
However, Zeng Zilian is very shrewd. If she notices something unusual, she will probably stare at it.
The fact that Ma Yuzhen participated in the student movement and often held gatherings in Ningyuan must have been hidden from Zeng Zilian.
After Lu Chengzhou went back in the evening, he wrote a detailed proposal to Yao Yimin.
Ma Yuzhen will face a lot of troubles as a traffic officer.
For example, Zhang Sichang of the military police unit may have met Ma Yuzhen.
In addition, "Lu Chengzhou" also knew about Ma Yuzhen's situation.
Of course, "Lu Chengzhou" has a different relationship with Ma Yuzhen. Even if he knew that Ma Yuzhen might be anti-Japanese, he might not betray her.
There is also Zeng Zilian from Zhenhua Middle School, who is also in trouble.
Zeng Zilian will definitely investigate Ma Yuzhen's past and suspect that she is a CCP member.
Therefore, Lu Chengzhou suggested that Ma Yuzhen could properly reveal that she was anti-Japanese in front of Zeng Zilian.
Sometimes it's like this, blindly denying it will only make people more suspicious.
Of course, this is also a test for Ma Yuzhen.
If her identity is discovered by Zeng Zilian, she must evacuate Haigu immediately.
In addition, Lu Chengzhou formulated a "Sun-breaking Plan".
This plan requires the cooperation of the underground party.
Every time Lu Chengzhou visited Road 24, he would habitually stop at Daxing General Store.
Zhang Guanglin was still standing behind the counter, while Zhang Sichang stayed in the back room.
Ever since Zhang Guanglin came, Zhang Sichang's life has been leisurely.
In the past, Zhang Sichang stayed at the Daxing grocery store all day long. If he wanted to go to the gendarmerie unit, he had to close the store.
Now, Zhang Sichang can spend some time in the military police unit every day.
Zhang Guanglin was watching the Daxing General Store, and he was able to enter the military police detachment from No. 20 Kang Bo South Road, no matter where he was, he was inconspicuous.
No. 22 Cumberland Road was originally rented by Zhang Sichang. After the military police unit moved in, he lived there for a while.
However, after the address of the gendarmerie unit was exposed, he had to do it secretly every time he went back for fear of being seen.
No matter what Zhang Sichang thinks in his heart, it's not a good feeling to be pointed out and treated as a traitor.
After Zhang Guanglin rented No. 20 Kang Bonan Road, he slept here at night, while Zhang Guanglin still slept in the grocery store.
"Director, you are here." Zhang Sichang was lying on the bed, with his feet hanging on the head of the bed and his hands behind his head, enjoying himself very comfortably.
Seeing Lu Chengzhou come in, he immediately got up.
"How many times have I told you, don't call me director outside." Lu Chengzhou scolded in a low voice.
"Yes." Zhang Sichang said awkwardly, patting the horse's leg.
"Jin Lianzhen should be discharged from the hospital. Go and bring him back." Lu Chengzhou ordered.
Jin Lianzhen is currently working in the Intelligence Room. He has been in the hospital for a few days and should be almost recovered.
"Where?" Zhang Sichang asked. Although Jin Lianzhen was from the Intelligence Room, he was a surrender member of the military command. Lu Chengzhou had to listen to Lu Chengzhou as to how to arrange it.
Although Zhang Sichang was also a spy, he despised Jin Lianzhen from the bottom of his heart.
Jin Lianzhen can betray the military commander, and he can also betray the military police unit in the future.
Such people will never be fully trusted no matter where they go.
"Let him familiarize himself with the situation in Changlongsheng first." Lu Chengzhou thought for a while, Jin Lianzhen should at least recognize all the people in the military police unit.
Otherwise, if you meet your colleagues from the gendarmerie unit outside and don't recognize them, wouldn't it be a big joke?
Of course, Lu Chengzhou also wanted to create opportunities for Jin Lianzhen.
Jin Lianzhen went through all kinds of hardships to break into the military police unit. If he had been sent to Daxing General Store as soon as he arrived, half of his mission would have been failed.
No matter what, the current Jin Lianzhen and Lu Chengzhou are still colleagues of the military commander.
After Lu Chengzhou finished handing over his work, he went out and left on his bicycle.
"Zhang Guanglin, come in." Zhang Sichang saw Lu Chengzhou out. When he saw him walking away, he turned back and said to Zhang Guanglin.
"Director, what are your orders?" Zhang Guanglin said humbly.
"How many times have I told you, don't shout like this outside, just call me the shopkeeper." Zhang Sichang said dissatisfied.
"Yes, the shopkeeper. Director, I always feel awkward shouting like this." Zhang Guanglin said with a smile.
"That's not okay. Besides, I'm just the deputy director. Don't shout like that in front of Mr. Lu." Zhang Sichang gently raised the corners of his mouth and warned.
Although he really wants to be the director, he is currently the deputy director.
Zhang Sichang feels that in terms of ability, he is no worse than Lu Chengzhou.
It's just that Lu Chengzhou once saved his life at his door, so he was embarrassed to argue with Lu Chengzhou.
However, Zhang Sichang believes that the Japanese are generous in this regard.
As long as you have made meritorious deeds, there is no problem in establishing a third intelligence office.
"Understood." Zhang Guanglin bowed and said.
"Wait a minute, go to the East Asia Hospital in the French Concession, pick up Jin Lianzhen, and take him to Changlongsheng." Zhang Sichang warned.
"Changlongsheng" trading company is the external name of the military police unit.
At the same time, it is also the name given to the military police unit by people within it.
Outside, the name "gendarme detachment" cannot be mentioned publicly.
"Yes." Zhang Guanglin nodded and repeated: "Go to the East Asia Hospital in the French Concession to pick up Jin Lianzhen and send him back to Changlongsheng."
Zhang Sichang is the deputy director of the Intelligence Office. Naturally, he would not be happy if he was asked to pick up Jin Lianzhen, a traitor to the military.
Lu Chengzhou gave him this task, and Zhang Sichang changed hands and sent Zhang Guanglin.
Lu Chengzhou's order was to take Jin Lianzhen back to the military police detachment, but did not specify that Zhang Sichang must go in person.
"Boss, do you have kerosene?"
Zhang Sichang was sitting behind the counter bored when he suddenly heard a customer coming in.
"Yes, how much do you want?" Zhang Sichang stood up lazily and said listlessly.
"Boss Zhang?"
Zhang Sichang heard that the customer recognized him, and then he turned his attention to the customer.
"Mr. Ma?" Zhang Sichang said in surprise after recognizing the other person.
In fact, Zhang Sichang's heart was filled with surprise and excitement at this time.
He recognized that the man who came to buy kerosene was none other than Ma Wenxiang, who had saved the National Congress.
Zhang Sichang may not be sure of the political outlook of the National Salvation Association members and others, but he can be sure of Ma Wenxiang's identity, which is definitely the Communist Party.
Just now, Zhang Sichang was still thinking about when he would be able to make meritorious deeds. Unexpectedly, a meritorious deed fell from the sky.
It seems that the day when the Third Intelligence Office of the Military Police Detachment will be established is not far away.
"Yeah, long time no see. Are you still living at No. 22 Cumberland Road?" Ma Wenxiang asked.
"That place is now a Japanese military police unit. How can I still live there? I have moved out long ago." Zhang Sichang sighed.
"It's better to move out. The Japanese are invaders. They plundered our land and killed our compatriots." Ma Wenxiang said indignantly.
"Mr. Ma is so right. I wonder where you live now? I always thought you left Haigu?" Zhang Sichang said casually.
"I live nearby." Ma Wenxiang was not wary of Zhang Sichang.
After Ma Wenxiang left, Zhang Sichang didn't even have time to close the door and followed him quietly.
