Miyamoto stood with his hands down, and the tape recorder was playing a recording of the conversation between Jiang Xinyu and Li Xiance on the train.
Hattori Hikoo: "Miyamoto-kun, what do you think about this matter?"
Miyamoto thought for a while and said: "Obviously, although Li Song is indeed a military spy, Jiang Xinyu does not know about it. The relationship between them seems to be... only about money."
Hattori Hikoo nodded and said: "It seems that Li Song is still an important figure, otherwise the military commander would not have taken the risk to rob people. It is a pity that no one was caught alive."
Miyamoto bowed and said, "It's the fault of my humble position."
"No, you did nothing wrong. Under those circumstances, I would have fired. I couldn't just watch him escape!"
"Thank you for your understanding, Major!"
"From now on, the investigation into Jiang Xinyu will be stopped."
"yes!"
Miyamoto hesitated for a moment and said: "Major, I heard that the imperial army lost again in the Zhijiang offensive. Is it true?"
Hattori Hikoo sighed and said: "It was not only a defeat, it was a disaster! More than 30,000 Imperial Army soldiers were crushed, and more than 400 people surrendered. The most shameful thing is that the Chinese Army captured nine of our
Ten military flags, this is a shame that the emperor has never experienced before!"
"Is this possible? We dispatched 100,000 elites..."
"Now it is no different than before. Even Class A divisions have more than one-third of new recruits. These soldiers have a short training time and lack of combat experience. The so-called elite is just that."
Miyamoto said bitterly: "It's understandable after we lost the battle. Those guys who discarded the military flag should have a caesarean section to apologize!"
Hattori Hikoo was very irritable. He didn't want to continue this topic. The more he talked about it, the more frustrated he became. Not only did it affect the morale of his subordinates, but he himself also felt like he was at the end of his rope.
"Miyamoto-kun, please go to the headquarters in the afternoon to collect the ammunition supplies for the plainclothes team and send them out of the city early tomorrow morning."
"yes!"
"Don't drive a military vehicle, don't wear a military uniform, do you understand what I mean?"
"clear!"

No. 73, Yunhe Street North.
Shopkeeper Huang said helplessly: "This was an unexpected situation. No one expected that the pistol would go off. At that time, we could only make mistakes."
Jiang Xinyu was silent for a while and said, "Does the headquarters know about the sacrifice of the special commissioner?"
"Understood, there is an internal announcement to award the award posthumously, and the matter of providing support to the family members is being gradually implemented."
"When will a new person be appointed?"
"The candidate is still under consideration, and it is estimated that it will take two months."
"Who will do the work at Yanjin Station?"
"Headquarters wants you to be the new person in charge temporarily!"
"I?"
"right!"
"I'm afraid this is not appropriate, right? There are many people at Yanjin Station who are more capable than me..."
"Don't refuse, I heard this is Boss Dai's intention!"
"Okay, I'm trying to catch a duck on the shelf, and I'm reluctant to do it! Oh, by the way, Lao Huang, do you know the judge?"
"Judge? Never heard of it."
"Before the commissioner died, he mentioned this name. I thought he was from Yanjin Station."
Shopkeeper Huang pondered for a moment, patted his thigh and said, "I know who the judge is!"
"who is it?"
"Some time ago, I heard the special commissioner mention that one of our people was placed within the Communist Party, and he should be the judge!"
"Oh, what's his name?"
"I don't know. They are communicating through a single line, and no one else at Yanjin Station knows about it."
Jiang Xinyu thought for a while and said: "But, the special commissioner died, how can the judge contact us?"
"This kind of secret mission must be archived at the headquarters... Well, just wait a little longer, and I will send a report to the headquarters now to ask for the judge's contact information!"
"good!"
Shopkeeper Huang entered the back room, took out the transmitter from the mezzanine of the wardrobe, connected the power supply, set up the antenna, skillfully operated the keys, and began to send a message to Chongqing.
Half an hour later, shopkeeper Huang took off his headphones, came out of the back room, picked up a thermos bottle, poured a glass of water for Jiang Xinyu, and said, "I estimate that the headquarters will call back in another hour."
Jiang Xinyu stood up, looked at the framed photo for a while, and said, "Old Huang, is this your home?"
Shopkeeper Huang: "This is my uncle's house. After the fall of Yanjin, his old man would rather die than be a slave to the country. He took his whole family to the south. The house has been empty. When something happened to the special commissioner, I regarded it as a temporary residence.
Contact point.”
"How many years has the house been empty?"
"For almost seven or eight years, I have come back every once in a while to open the windows for ventilation and clean the house."
"The house has been empty for so long, and strangers suddenly appear frequently. It is easy to attract others' attention, so the contact point should be changed to the tofu house."
"good!"
An hour later, the headquarters called back: The boss has given instructions that the judge has entered the hibernation stage and will not be activated for the time being.
After reading the telegram, shopkeeper Huang said: "It seems that the headquarters is planning to make a big move!"
Jiang Xinyu took out a match, lit the message and threw it in the ashtray, saying: "Director Dai is far-sighted and must have a longer-term plan. Let's not make blind guesses."
The two agreed on new contact information, and Jiang Xinyu left Yunhe North Street.
I thought I could take this opportunity to find out who the judge was, but I didn't expect that a message from Chongqing made the plan come to nothing.
With this traitor around, Jiang Xinyu was even more afraid to reveal his identity to Pei Shaoshi. This matter must be considered in the long run!
One week later.
Fu Ju Cheng Department Store.
Hattori Mina played with a crystal ball enthusiastically and said, "Xinyu, does this one look better or the one just now?"
Jiang Xinyu: "I remember you have two crystal balls in your room. Why do you buy so many of these things?"
"We want to start a new life, and of course we have to use new things!"
"What to do with those?"
"Stay there. If you bully me in the future, I will move back here!"
Jiang Xinyu smiled and said: "What if you bully me?"
Hattori Mina rolled her eyes and said: "First of all, this assumption is not valid, how could I bully you? Secondly, even if I bully you, you are not allowed to go anywhere!"
"If I'm being bullied, I have to lock the door and hand over the feather duster... This is too reasonable!"
"Then...we will never quarrel!"
"There is no couple in the world who never quarrels."
"How could that be? I don't believe it!"
"Captain Jiang, are you free?" A voice interrupted the two of them joking with each other.
Jiang Xinyu turned around and saw that it was Chief Li, his colleague from the police station.
"Hey, Lao Li, why are you here?"
"I'm leading a team on duty today. It's too hot outside. I came in to cool off. I happened to see the two of you mixing oil in the honey. It's really enviable."
Jiang Xinyu thought for a moment and said: "Two days ago, you said you would be on duty at Ximen this week, why did you change it so quickly?"
Chief Li pointed at his cheek and said, "Forget it, I had three of my teeth knocked out. Even if I'm beaten to death, I won't go on duty at the city gate. It's so annoying!"
