331, seems to suspect that he is a smuggler of the Communist Party
Xiao Ancheng soon felt exhausted. He was hungry in his belly and weak all over. He really wanted to sit down and take a rest. But everyone else was working, and even moved very quickly. If you move one more cardboard box, you can earn more
money!
He felt dizzy for a while, but he gritted his teeth and persisted. He had to earn money for today's meal!
Near noon, this batch of goods was finally loaded onto the ship.
The foreman settled their wages according to the bamboo sticks in each person's hand. Xiao Ancheng earned 80 cents this morning!
He left the cargo dock exhausted. He felt extremely weak. He was not sure whether he could do another batch of work. However, with these 80 cents, at least it was enough for him to have a meal today!

Xiao Ancheng walked outside the pier to find the cheapest food stall. He was in urgent need of something to eat. He felt like he was going to collapse from hunger.
As he slowly walked forward along the edge of the goods yard, he vaguely felt an inexplicable and erratic tremor passing through his heart. It was a very strange and wonderful feeling.
He subconsciously turned his head and glanced around.
Some workers were walking slowly nearby, trucks and cars carrying goods passed by silently, and dust filled the air like mist. The surrounding buildings were shrouded in strange light and shadow.
There was a clear point in the blur of light and shadow. When he saw the point clearly, he couldn't help but be surprised.
As if in a dream, he suddenly saw Liao Ruolan standing quietly on the side of the road, looking at him with concern and doubt.
That kind of concerned gaze, which he had been particularly looking forward to, appeared at this moment, leaving him with a sense of embarrassment and surprise.
He slowly retracted his thoughts and tried to control the emotions in his heart. He couldn't talk to her!
He slowly looked away with his blank, shocked eyes, as if he hadn't seen her at all.
He finally turned around and walked away. But in his heart, there was anxiety, embarrassment, and regret, all entangled together, making it difficult to get rid of him!
7-28
The completely unexpected shock also caused turmoil and uneasiness in Liao Ruolan's heart.
In the first moment, she thought he looked like this because he was here in disguise to perform some mission.
But she soon realized that it was not the case. The filth and sloppiness on his body could not be faked! The fatigue and weakness on his face could not be faked either! She could see that he was in trouble at this time!
What happened to him! What happened to him! Why he looked like this! She really couldn't figure it out.
Only then did she clearly feel that the person who had been hiding in her heart was her eternal concern, and she could not get rid of it no matter what! It was as if there was a thread between them!
She understood that this was her emotion and concern for him! She couldn't let it go!
She really wanted to go over and ask him what happened? Ancheng, can I help you?
But she was not sure whether she could do this. Years of secret work experience made her afraid to act rashly!
When Liao Ruolan was hesitating, she felt something unusual somewhere nearby. She also glanced around subconsciously. She unexpectedly saw a person quietly waving to her in the gap between the goods.
The way of waving was very subtle. He waved once, and when she didn't respond, he waved again. The man also looked around to see if anyone noticed him.
In Liao Ruolan's first impression, she knew this man and seemed to have seen him somewhere. But she couldn't remember where he was, let alone his name. But the man looked around and continued to wave to her.
Liao Ruolan hesitated for a moment and then walked over slowly.
The man led her deep into the crack, with a slight smile on his face, and said, "Miss Liao, you didn't recognize me, did you?"
As soon as she heard his voice, Liao Ruolan suddenly remembered that one day in August this year, when she was about to send Mr. Asakura to Zhabei Station, this man rushed to her house and warned her not to go to Zhabei Station!
Lao Huang once told her that this man was a secret member of the Japanese Anti-War League!
She said: "I remembered that you once warned me not to go to Zhabei Station."
Okamoto laughed, "It's me. My name is Okamoto Hisanobu, and I'm currently in the Military Police Division of the Japanese Army Headquarters!"
Liao Ruolan nodded to him. His identity was exactly what she had guessed!
Okamoto nodded in the direction Xiao Ancheng walked and whispered: "You must not approach him! Takahashi sent people to keep an eye on him, and they have been keeping an eye on him for several days!"
Liao Ruolan opened her mouth in surprise, "Why?"
Okamoto whispered: "His matter is a bit complicated. Internally, they seemed to suspect that he was a communist lurker! So, they detained him for investigation. But two days ago, he escaped! To be honest, I don't understand him either.
Why are you doing this! What can you do if you escape? Do coolies on the dock? Look at him! He can't stand it any longer!"
When he said these words, he kept shaking his head with regret.
"Are you spying on him?" Liao Ruolan asked in surprise.
"Yes! It's not just me, there are several of them! In the past few days, we have all his whereabouts!"
"Why?" Liao Ruolan continued to ask.
"To be honest, I don't understand why. This man is obviously in trouble! He wandered around yesterday and is working hard on the dock today! He slept in the cargo pile at night! I really don't understand why. But
You must not approach him!"
At this time, Liao Ruolan asked the question she was most concerned about, "Is he a communist?"
God! Liao Ruolan couldn't help but scream in her heart, is he a communist? If he is, then he is my comrade!
If he is really, in Chen Zifeng's group, he is actually performing the party's tasks! God! I have been misunderstanding him, giving him a cold face! Even scolding him!
God! If he were my comrade, that would be great! That would be great! She shouted in her heart.
Unexpectedly, Okamoto shook his head and said, "I don't know if he is a communist. I feel like he is not."
"Why?" Liao Ruolan suddenly felt desperate and looked at him in surprise.
"The news I got is that the reason why they suspected him internally was that when he was in Luodian, he sent a telegram for someone from the Communist Party of China, and that's it. Besides, if he is really a communist, why hasn't he been there in the past two days?
Looking for someone of your own? So, I don’t think he is! But I can’t tell. Miss Liao, please get out of here quickly!"
Liao Ruolan looked a little dazed and didn't know how she left the dock.
Her original purpose was to observe the situation on the dock and prepare to send Mr. Asakura back to Japan in the next few days. Unexpectedly, she saw Xiao Ancheng here! How could they meet here if they were not enemies!
Some people suspected that he was a Communist! But Okamoto said that he couldn't be! Was he?
Liao Ruolan's emotions were ups and downs, drifting back and forth in a state of uncertainty. She was thinking, how can she figure this out?

The uneasiness in Liao Ruolan's heart also appeared in Xiao Ancheng's heart.
He never thought that he would meet his sweetheart when he was so down and out, trapped and hopeless!
This blow far exceeded Luo Jiang's suspicion of him!
He didn't go to eat, it was no longer his first need! He couldn't eat anything at this time! He only felt a heart-wrenching pain, stirring like a knife in his chest, making it unbearable.
He walked into the middle of the goods pile, sat down in the gap, and held his head in his hands. Under the attack of drowsiness and hunger, what he kept thinking about was Liao Ruolan! It was difficult to explain to her originally, and now it is even harder to explain!
I don't know how long it took, but he felt his consciousness gradually blurring and finally lost consciousness.
He fell to the ground like a dead man!

This morning, the brothers in Chen Zifeng's group all got up.
During breakfast, Chen Zifeng personally arranged tasks for the brothers. Qiao Yanfang was still monitoring the Wangyun Road Clinic. Xiao Ancheng was detained by Luo Jiang, and I don't know what the outcome will be. He had to do the task arrangement himself.
The task he arranged was that Yang Sanqiang took two brothers to Wangyun Road to replace Qiao Yanfang and they came back to rest. Qiang Hu took two brothers and then went to Disiwei Road to secretly search for Sasaki.
He said: "You all should be careful! I almost suffered a loss there yesterday! Don't suffer a loss again!"
Qiang Hu grinned and said: "Zifeng, don't worry, I will be careful! I will try to find that guy!"
He added: "I will take two brothers and go to Zhenru Town! I will try to find an opportunity to strike there!"
However, when he arranged for Tan Hao to continue to stay as housekeeper and continue to study how to control his hands, he encountered firm opposition.
Tan Hao said: "Zifeng, just send me on a mission. I really can't figure out what to do with this weapon, and my hair is turning gray with worry! If you ask me to go on a mission, I will be more or less active.
Activities, I’m almost suffocated!”
Chen Zifeng said: "You have to look after the house and watch the radio station. Otherwise, what will you do if Peng Shaoyong calls?"
Tan Hao said: "I've been watching for several days and he didn't call. It's a day or two. I really can't figure out this trick! You'd better let me go on a mission!"
When he said this, he even looked at Chen Zifeng pitifully, almost begging.
In Zhenru Town, Chen Zifeng already had an idea in his mind. Damn it, just give flowers to those Japanese officers! Hidden handguns in the flowers! Damn, it would be better to blow them up! But how to control the handguns, indeed
It’s a big problem!
He thought for a while and said: "Okay then, you take two people to Zhenru Town! I'll stay behind to look after the house!"

After breakfast, the brothers quietly left the station to carry out their respective tasks.
Chen Zifeng stayed at home and began to study this technique.
His research was actually exactly the same as Tan Hao's research yesterday. He held the reed, pulled out the safety bolt, plugged it in, plugged it in, and pulled it out again.
