Xiao Ancheng glared at him again and turned his gaze to the window, not wanting to talk to him anymore.
Takahashi came closer to him, stared into his eyes and said: "They want to switch the package on the pier! It can't be successful! We have already arranged it! You will know the result the day after tomorrow! Those people in Luojiang will go crazy with anger! This
It’s the information you provided! You should think about it again!”
After he finished speaking, he stood up and left the room.
Xiao Ancheng sat alone in the room, still considering the situation in front of him.
There must be a traitor around Luo Jiang! But I don’t know who it is! Secondly, the situation he has received so far is still not enough to let him leave! Can he endure it?
At this moment, he suddenly thought of Liao Ruolan again.
Yesterday I met Ruolan unexpectedly on the dock. I really don't know what Ruolan would have thought about his condition at that time.
He had a bad feeling that the distance between him and Ruolan was getting farther and farther. Ruolan had always been very cold to him, and he couldn't explain to her, let alone tell her the truth.
Thinking of this situation, he felt sad again. Could the true love in life just pass by like this?
10-26
This afternoon, the quiet Liao Ruolan spent this afternoon in unrest.
According to Mr. Asakura's schedule, she should send the couple back to Japan as soon as possible. But Mr. Asakura asked to wait a little longer.
He said: "Liao Sang, the situation in Shanghai is very complicated now. Mr. Chen and the others may be in big trouble! I want to stay and see how they are doing! What do you think?" He looked at Liao Ruolan with a smile.
Liao Ruolan knew that Chen Zifeng and the others were in danger now, and there might be Japanese spies inside! On the other hand, she was also thinking about Xiao Ancheng and wanted to know how he was doing now. Is he still on the dock? What are he doing now?
In this way, she had no choice but to settle down with Mr. Asakura and observe him for a few more days.
In the past two days, she has been tutoring Mr. Asakura in Chinese. She goes to the street every day to buy some newspapers for Mr. Asakura to read.
Mr. Asakura wore spectacles and read the newspaper loudly with a strange tone, which often made Mrs. Asakura laugh.
Mrs. Asakura seemed to have a mysophobia and she kept cleaning the house every day, which made Liao Ruolan very embarrassed.
She said: "Madam, please put it down and don't wipe it all the time. Once you wipe the table, I can't sit still."
Mrs. Asakura stood on tiptoe and kept leaning forward. With a gentle smile on her face, she said: "It's just a habit. It's just a habit. Please don't mind." After saying this, she went to the sink to wash the rag.
.
Liao Ruolan was amazed when she looked at her. The rag she used to wipe the table had been washed white by her.
At this time, she heard a knock on the door outside. She thought, who will come? No one should know that she lives here. It can't be Chen Zifeng and the others.
When she opened the door, she was surprised. The person standing outside the door looked familiar, but she didn't remember who he was for a moment.
The person outside the door opened her mouth and gave her a wanton smile, "Miss Liao, what's the matter? You don't recognize me anymore."
As soon as she heard his voice, Liao Ruolan suddenly remembered, "Oh, you are Brother Wei! You must be Brother Wei! It must be you! I didn't recognize you until I heard your voice."
Wei Jiechen, who was standing outside the door, laughed loudly and shook his shoulders from side to side, "Then, will you let me in now?"
Liao Ruolan hurriedly opened the door, "Brother Wei, please come in quickly, please come in quickly."
Wei Jiechen strode into the door and saw Mr. Asakura at first sight. He immediately walked towards him with a smile, held his hand and said, "Mr. Asakura, I finally found you!"
Mr. Asakura was also surprised, "Mr. Wei, why are you looking for me?"
Wei Jiechen patted his head and laughed, "Oh, I was the one who said something in a hurry. I'm not looking for you for anything, I just want to go back to Japan with you. Oh, I spent a long time in Peking to find out your whereabouts.
.”
He turned back to Liao Ruolan and said: "Miss Liao, I have told you before that I will see you again! How about, we will see you now! Oh, I am so worried that Mr. Asakura has left."
Liao Ruolan quickly asked him to sit down, and then asked: "Brother Wei, are you healed? How did you escape from danger that day? I have been thinking about you since then! If it weren't for you, Mr. Asakura and I might have been in trouble.
!”
Wei Jiechen was very happy and said with a happy smile: "The minor injury has healed. I was indeed captured by the Japanese that day. However, it was not me they wanted to arrest, but Mr. Asakura. So, I said I am a
Tea guest, after being locked up for a few days, they released me."
Liao Ruolan asked: "Why are you in such a hurry to return to Japan?"
With a sly smile in his eyes, Wei Jiechen said in a low voice: "My mission is in Japan. I went to Peking for other matters. I have finished my work and I have to go back to Japan as soon as possible. There are still my colleagues over there.
.”
Wei Jiechen chatted with Ruolan and Asakura for a while, talking about some people and things in Peiping. After that, he turned to Liao Ruolan and said, "I came to Shanghai to do something else. Miss Liao, you know Qiao Yanfang
Where?"
Liao Ruolan then remembered that Brother Wei and Qiao Yanfang were colleagues in the past and had a close relationship, so she said: "I met her the day before yesterday. I only know that she and Chen Zifeng live in the Park Road area, but I don't know where they live specifically.
Already."
Wei Jiechen said softly: "I came to Shanghai this time for some other things. You went to Peiping with Xiao Qiao, so I guessed that you might know her whereabouts. I have something very important to do. I need to find her and
Chen Zifeng."
Liao Ruolan looked at him and thought for a while. It was probably a very important, but also very dangerous thing, related to their mission!
She said: "Okay, I'll try to find a way to find it. Are you in a hurry?"
Wei Jiechen's eyes became a little stern, "Miss Liao, I'm very anxious!"
In this way, Liao Ruolan did not delay any more. She first arranged for Wei Jiechen to stay, and then asked Mrs. Asakura what to eat for dinner, and then quietly left Mingyuanli.
10-27
Ming Yuanli and Park Road are both in the French Concession, so the distance is not too far. However, there are no trams passing by.
Liao Ruolan also considered that her whereabouts should not be remembered by others, and the rickshaw did not take her too far. She got off the rickshaw far away on Aiwenyi Road and slowly walked into Pike Road.
When Chen Zifeng and others came last time, they mentioned that they lived on Pike Road, but the specific location was not mentioned.
Therefore, when Liao Ruolan walked into Pike Road, she was actually lucky. She didn't know if she could find Chen Zifeng.
It has already darkened, and the street lights on Pike Road are not very bright. Only the lights from the shops on both sides are projected. A person is coming from the opposite side, and you have to walk very close to see his face clearly.
Such a situation made Liao Ruolan a little worried whether her trip would be in vain.
When she was walking back and forth on Pike Road for about the second time, she accidentally noticed a man walking across the street and staring at her.
She glanced at the man and recognized him as one of Chen Zifeng's brothers.
She had chatted with this brother when she was at Qiaojia in the past. She immediately slowed down her steps to show what she meant, I was either passing by or here to see you.
The brother was really smart. When he passed by her, he whispered: "Follow me!" and walked over.
Liao Ruolan looked around, as if looking for a shop, then turned around and walked back, staring at the brothers in front.
Finally, she saw the brother walking into a small alley. She looked at the street sign and saw that it was Baishi Alley.
When she entered Baishi Lane, there was no trace of the brother. She had to slow down her pace and look to the left and right as she walked. She believed that the brother would not leave her here.
As she was walking, a door next to her suddenly opened, and the brother inside whispered: "Miss Liao, come in quickly!"
She was very experienced. Before entering, she looked behind her to make sure no one was there, and then she stepped through the door.
11-1
Liao Ruolan's sudden appearance surprised Chen Zifeng and Qiao Yanfang, and they couldn't guess what important matter she had.
As soon as she sat down, she hurriedly said: "Zifeng, in the afternoon, Brother Wei Jiechen came to me and said that he had something very important and wanted to see you. I actually didn't know where you lived, so I had to come. Fortunately, I met you.
brother."
Chen Zifeng asked: "Old Wei didn't say anything?"
Liao Ruolan said: "He didn't say anything. He just said he was in a hurry. I have a phone at home and I can notify him to come over."
Chen Zifeng turned around and said, "Xiao Qiao, go out and call Lao Wei and ask him to come over."
Qiao Yanfang stood up and said with a smile: "Sister, please go with me."
Liao Ruolan stood up quickly and said, "Okay, let's go now."
Qiao Yanfang asked two more brothers to follow her, then she took Liao Ruolan's arm and walked out quietly.
11-2
Pike Road is still dark and there are not many pedestrians.
Qiao Yanfang looked around and saw nothing unusual. Then she turned back and stared at Liao Ruolan and said, "Sister, do you have anything to ask?"
Liao Ruolan couldn't help but pinch her and said with a smile: "How did you know what I wanted to ask?"
Qiao Yanfang said: "I saw you looking around as soon as you entered the door. Are you looking for Brother Xiao?"
Liao Ruolan was silent for a moment and then said softly: "I saw him at Shiliupu Pier at noon yesterday."
Qiao Yanfang was taken aback and asked hurriedly: "What's wrong with him? Sister, tell me quickly!"
Liao Ruolan whispered: "I don't know what's going on, but he looks like he hasn't slept or eaten for several days. His face is covered with dirt, I almost can't recognize him!"
Qiao Yanfang said "Oh!" and lowered her head, looking very sad.
Liao Ruolan asked in a low voice: "What happened to him? Why is he like that?"
"Did he say anything to you?"
"No. He glanced at me and turned his face away, as if he didn't see me at all! You must know, tell me what's going on!"
Qiao Yanfang was silent for a while, then whispered: "Sister, I shouldn't tell you, because even Zifeng can't tell what is going on. Zifeng and his brother were ordered to go to Luodian to observe the battlefield situation and report to the war zone at any time.
Report from the headquarters. Zifeng said that they sent a telegram on behalf of one of your people there. A few days ago, the superiors came to investigate this matter and even detained Brother Xiao!"
