Jiang Xinyu got into the car and drove to an unprotected section of road. He rolled down the side window, put the reverse gear on, and the car quickly reversed.
He has already observed that this road is relatively quiet, with few pedestrians and vehicles, and only the car following him is always behind him.
The car behind saw Jiang Xinyu suddenly backing up. He didn't understand what was going on, so he had to try his best to avoid hitting each other.
The moment the two cars crossed each other, Jiang Xinyu braked, stuck his pistol out of the car window, and pointed it at the people in the other car.
"Raise your hands above your head and get out of the car immediately!" Jiang Xinyu shouted sharply.
The distance between the two cars was less than half a meter. Seeing the guns pointed at themselves, the two people in the car obediently opened the door and got out. The order they received was just to follow, but they did not say that they would fight Jiang Xinyu desperately.
Jiang Xinyu looked at them and said, "Who are you?"
One of them said with a sharp face: "Chief Jiang, don't get me wrong, we are from the detective team."
"Detective team? Bring out the ID!"
The two guys took out their IDs from their pockets and handed them to Jiang Xinyu, and said, "Chief Jiang, if you don't believe me, you can call us now to verify our identities."
In fact, as soon as the two people got out of the car, Jiang Xinyu felt that they looked familiar. The detective team and the police station often carried out joint operations, so even if they couldn't call them by name, they could still have some impressions.
Jiang Xinyu threw the documents back to them and said, "Who asked you to follow me?"
Dao Tiao Lian defended: "We brothers happened to be passing by, why are we following you..."
"If I didn't even notice that I was being followed, I would have spent four years as a police officer in vain!"
"It's really a misunderstanding. If you still don't believe me, just ask our Captain Zhou yourself."
Jiang Xinyu put away his gun and said: "I don't have the time to spare. Tell Captain Zhou a word for me. Zhang Jinbiao is my informant. Your detective team had better not touch him!"
"I will definitely tell you, I will definitely tell you."
"Stop following me!"
After saying this, Jiang Xinyu stepped on the accelerator and the car sped away.
The two special agents from the detective team looked at each other. If they were caught following someone, there was no need to continue following them. They got in the car and went back to the detective team to resume their duties.
Jiang Xinyu drove around twice to make sure that no one was following him, and then he came to Huichuntang Clinic.
Sun Shiming had just seen off a patient and asked the patient some precautions at the door.
"Dr. Sun, I'm here to get the medicine." Jiang Xinyu got out of the car and walked over.
"Come in, I'll do a check-up on you to see if your condition has improved, Shuhua." Sun Shiming gave his wife a wink.
Shuhua nodded and stood at the window looking out the door, as if she was watching the street scene, but in fact she was on guard.
Entering the inner room, Jiang Xinyu was lying on the bed. Sun Shiming put on a stethoscope, moved a chair and sat beside the bed, pretending to give Jiang Xinyu a physical examination in case someone came in suddenly.
"How is the situation?" Jiang Xinyu asked in a low voice.
"Lao Qiu and I met yesterday."
"Does he know about Lao Chen's sacrifice?"
Sun Shiming shook his head and said: "I don't know. Lao Chen canceled all activities related to himself. When he was killed, he was actually in a dormant state!"
"Does Lao Qiu know who the person with the mole at the corner of his mouth is?" This was the answer Jiang Xinyu wanted to know urgently.
"The Yanjin underground party does not have the person you mentioned, unless he, like you, is also a lurker with a single line of contact. In that case, it is impossible for Lao Qiu to know him."
Jiang Xinyu thought for a while and said, "Didn't Lao Qiu say anything else?"
"no, what happened?"
"It's nothing. I asked Lao Chen to inquire about something. Since Lao Qiu didn't say anything, it seems he doesn't know the inside story."
"There is a mission sent down from above."
"What mission?"
"A new guerrilla group has been established in Dawang Township. There are about fifty people. Because it is too far away from the Jizhong base area, it is very inconvenient to transport weapons. So the above said let us think of a way to see if we can get some guns.
Ammunition, arm this team."
"How many guns are missing?"
"Forty."
"The guerrillas only have a dozen guns in total?"
"I heard from Lao Qiu that among the dozen or so guns, most of them are old guns with old sleeves, made in Hanyang, and Kwai Lee type guns."
"It's too difficult. Now it takes a long time to interrogate even a nail out of the city, let alone forty guns! - I mean, that's assuming you get the gun."
"Lao Qiu specifically asked me to tell you that if you have the chance, do it. If you don't have the chance, you must put your own safety first."
Jiang Xinyu put his hand on his forehead, pondered for a while, and said: "The Japanese army has a batch of captured Zhongzheng rifles, which will be handed over to the Yanjin garrison recently. Maybe they can make a fuss..."
"What can you do?"
"As far as I know, the garrison does not lack firearms. After these weapons are handed over, they must be put into storage. If done properly, it is not impossible to get these guns out!"
"The garrison's munitions warehouse is heavily guarded. How can we get it out? This is not a small amount." Sun Shiming said worriedly.
"I'm not sure either. Let's give it a try. I'll let you know if there's any progress." Jiang Xinyu sat up and prepared to leave.
"According to what you said, there are spies within us. You should be more careful."
Jiang Xinyu nodded and said: "I know, I already have some clues about this matter... Regarding the gun, we definitely can't do it alone, we may need some external help..."
"external force?"
Yes! For example, military control."
"The military's defense against us is even stricter than against the Japanese. It is really difficult to get their help..." Sun Shiming shook his head helplessly.
Jiang Xinyu picked up the medicine bag on the table and said, "It all depends on human effort. If you don't try it, you will never get the results you want!"
He took a few steps, hesitated, turned around and said, "There's something, I don't know if you've heard about it."
"What's up?"
Jiang Xinyu said: "Is Pan Yongyan's meeting with Wang Jingwei in Nanjing true or false? What does he want to do? Are we going to join the ranks of those national scum?"
Sun Shiming: "Lao Qiu and I talked about this matter yesterday. Lao Qiu thought that people with ulterior motives were spreading rumors and deliberately slandering us Communists!"
Jiang Xinyu was silent for a moment and said: "Colonel Dujia, the head of the Japanese Expeditionary Forces General Staff Headquarters, is said to have also met with Pan Yongyan. This matter has been reported in Chongqing..."
Sun Shiming said categorically: "Absolutely impossible! This is the usual despicable trick of the Japanese. Seeing the cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, they deliberately want to sow discord and attempt to split the anti-Japanese national united front!"
"I also hope that the rumors are all rumors, or it is Pan Yongyan's personal behavior. If he shouts anti-Japanese slogans all day long and makes shady deals in private, I will really... find it hard to accept it!"
After saying these words, Jiang Xinyu opened the door and walked out.
