"When did you come to Wuhan?" Liao Ruolan asked quietly.
"The end of January, almost two months."
"What is the mission?"
"The first is the defense against Wuhan. The second is the 'barrel plan'!"
"What's the plan?"
"I don't know at all! I only know that this plan was formulated by Takahashi, and Takaji from the Army and Sato from the Navy jointly implemented the plan!"
"By the way, where is Sato hiding?"
"Deming Hotel, room 215. Takashi, Sasaki, and I all live there!"
"Chen Zifeng and those people have been looking for Sato. They call him the old beggar!"
"Miss Liao, do you want to tell Chen Zifeng about this place?"
"What do you mean?"
"If something happens to Sato and Takashi, I'm afraid the same will happen to me!"
Liao Ruolan immediately understood what Okamoto meant.
Takaji and Sato are actually Okamoto's hidden support and the basis for his role! If Takaji and Sato are caught by Chen Zifeng's team, Okamoto will not be able to gain a foothold, let alone complete his mission!
There is a key point in this. The purpose of the Japanese Anti-War Alliance is slightly different from the purpose of Chen Zifeng's side. The purpose of the Anti-War Alliance is more importantly within Japan!
When she thought about this clearly, she felt embarrassed. Chen Zifeng's main target was Sato! But Sato and Takashi were the basis for Okamoto's role! Without Sato and Takashi, Okamoto would not be able to play any role!
This was something she had never thought of. She thought maybe she needed to ask Comrade Liu for instructions.
But then she thought about it, she was currently in such a situation, and she didn’t know what the outcome would be, and she didn’t even know whether she would be able to see Comrade Liu!
Thinking of this, she began to guess Takashi's purpose again! Did Takashi doubt Okamoto? She was really not sure!

At twelve o'clock at night, Liu Richen quietly left the dance hall of the Wuhan Women's Rescue Association.
He understood that tonight's contact with senior officers of the national army could only be like this, and there would be no new discoveries.
He was very anxious. At the end of the month, the Supreme Military Meeting of the Central Military Commission will be held. One of the most important issues discussed at the meeting is Wuhan's next defense strategy!
Judging from various signs, the most likely defense plan adopted by the national army is, simply put, to besiege the city and fortify it!
Several leading comrades of the Central Committee in Wuhan believe that if this happens, the national army will suffer heavy losses! The national war of resistance will suffer setbacks! This is also a blow to the people!
However, through various channels, he could not find anyone who had similar views to Sun Jike!
Liu Richen left the Women's Rescue Association building. Lin Jiatai quietly emerged from the darkness.
He first followed Liu Richen from a distance, and then followed up when there was no one around, walking side by side with him.
Lin Jiatai is a cautious person. As soon as he saw Comrade Liu's face, he understood that there was still no gain tonight!
They walked east from Wah King Street and soon turned onto Han King Street. From Han King Street to the south, they crossed Hao Street and reached Sai Kung Street.
Saigon Street is relatively narrow and the lights are dimmer. There are mostly small shops on both sides of the street, most of which are closed at this time.
Lin Jiatai is responsible for Liu Richen's security work. He must always pay attention in front and behind him to ensure that there is no abnormal situation nearby.
19-21
However, when Lin Jiatai accompanied Liu Richen, turning southeast from Saigon Street and onto Station Street, something unexpected happened!
He turned around once to make sure there was no one behind him.
But when he turned his head and continued walking forward, he vaguely heard the sound of running quickly behind him!
The sound of running made him panic! By the time he looked back again, it was already too late!
A black figure appeared out of nowhere, but rushed over like lightning, rushing to Liu Richen's side!
When Lin Jiatai rushed toward the dark figure, the dark figure grabbed Liu Richen's shoulder with his left hand, and a dagger with a cold light in his right hand pierced Liu Richen's waist!
Lin Jiatai kicked the man on the shoulder! The man rolled on the spot, jumped up, and ran away!
Lin Jiatai wanted to catch up and break his neck! But he knew without looking carefully that Lao Liu was seriously injured! Even fatally injured! He had to protect Comrade Lao Liu first!
He rushed to Lao Liu's side and saw at a glance that he was unconscious.
Lin Jiatai has rich experience in treating injuries on the battlefield! He quickly turned him over and lifted up his clothes to take a look! As soon as he saw the wound with blood gushing out, he knew how deadly this knife was!
He first took out his handkerchief, twisted it into a bunch, and stuffed it forcefully into Lao Liu's wound. Then he took off his coat, rolled it into a ball, and pressed it on the wound. Finally, he took off his belt and tied the clothes tightly to the wound!
He understood that if he slowed down the bleeding first, there might be a chance!
At this time, he became even more anxious. No matter which hospital he went to from here, it was very far! Even if he carried Lao Liu on his back, he wouldn't be able to walk far! He felt like the sweat on his head was breaking out!
At this moment, he saw a car approaching from a distance! He pulled out his pistol, jumped into the middle of the road, pointed the gun at the car, and waved his left hand vigorously.
The car wanted to go around him! No one dared to park in the middle of the night!
Lin Jiatai was desperate and fired a shot at the car!
The car finally stopped. Lin Jiatai rushed over, opened the door, dragged the driver out, and pointed a gun at the driver's forehead! He endured it again and again, and that's why he didn't fire the shot!
He yelled: "Get in the back seat! Stay here!"
The driver was so frightened by his pistol that he couldn't even speak and just kept trembling.
Lin Jiatai put the driver into the back seat, picked up Liu Richen, and put him into the back seat as well.
He yelled: "Hold him! If you don't hug him, I will beat you to death!"
He jumped into the driver's seat and started the car! He only had one thought now, and quickly sent Comrade Liu to the 22nd Field Hospital! Leave it to Dr. Fu!
He pressed the accelerator hard, and the car ran forward like a wild horse!
19-22
The dark Shifu Street is silent and deserted.
This is a secluded and simple little street. At this time of night, the people living on the street have all fallen asleep, and all the windows have dark lights. Only a slight breeze occasionally blows the waste paper on the ground.
A dark figure turned from the other side and walked in the shadows of the street.
He was wearing a long windbreaker, and the hem of the coat was swaying gently in the breeze. He had his hands in his pockets, and he was holding a gun in his right hand!
Takashi would never dare to be careless when walking alone on this street!
He walked to Door No. 31, stopped, and listened carefully to what was going on around him.
After that, he took out the key, opened the door silently, and walked in gently.
The room was dark and he couldn't see anything clearly. But Takashi was very familiar with this place. He easily bypassed the obstructing furniture and finally walked up the stairs. He walked step by step, but there was no sound at all.
When we reached the second floor, there was a little light coming in from outside, showing the outline of the entire room.
He turned left silently. On the left was the storage room. He stopped.
To be precise, he was a little surprised at this time.
Okamoto was lying outside the door of the storage room, sleeping with one hand under his head.
Takashi saw that the door of the storage room would not be opened unless he moved away.
He gently knelt down next to Okamoto and observed him carefully.
About a second or two later, he felt something touch his leg.
He looked down and saw that the gun in Okamoto's hand was pressed against his leg, pointing at his belly!
Takaji growled in fear: "It's me! Put down the gun!"
Okamoto put down the gun and slowly sat up. His eyes flashed alertly in the darkness, staring at Takashi.
Tingji asked in a low voice: "Where is the person?"
Okamoto tilted his head back and said, "Inside!"
Takashi stood up, walked around Okamoto, and opened the door of the storage room. The small light in the storage room was on.
Liao Ruolan's hands were tied with a hemp rope and tied to the legs of the cabinet next to her. She lay motionless. Her hair was messy and covered her face. It was unclear whether she was asleep or awake.
Takashi felt a sense of relief in his heart. Although Okamoto is young, he can be trusted! He is very cautious!
He closed the door of the storage room again, waved to Okamoto and said, "Follow me!"
After he finished speaking, he walked downstairs.
They quietly went downstairs. Takashi first sat down on the chair by the window, and then motioned for Okamoto to sit down.
Okamoto kept staring at Takashi. He knew in his heart that Miss Liao thought this was an inspection, and she guessed it right!
"Sir, what's the matter?" Okamoto asked softly.
"Don't ask any more questions," Takashi said. After a while, he added, "You have other tasks. Someone will take over for you in a while! Sit quietly and don't ask anything!"
The small building became quiet. Takashi and Okamoto both sat quietly, looking at the night scene outside the window.
19-23
When the car was still more than a hundred meters away from the building of the 22nd Field Hospital, Lin Jiatai honked the horn desperately!
The sound of horns and the roar of cars are terrifying in this silent night!
He stepped on the brake and the car stopped against the hospital door!
As soon as he jumped out of the car, he yelled at the building with all his strength: "Someone is coming! Someone is coming quickly!"
His voice was so loud that many windows upstairs lit up.
The sentry rushed over with his rifle and shouted: "What are you shouting for? You are looking for death!"
Lin Jiatai couldn't care about this, so he opened the back seat door and took Liu Richen out.
He yelled at the frightened driver: "You can leave!"
He hugged Liu Richen and ran towards the building, continuing to shout: "Someone is coming! Someone is coming quickly!"
19-24
When Lin Jiatai rushed into the hall with Liu Richen in his arms, several nurses on duty ran out and looked at him in horror!
In a blink of an eye, he saw Dr. Fu running out of the duty room!
While putting on her white coat, she looked at Lin Jiatai in surprise. Then, she saw clearly that Liu Richen was holding Lin Jiatai in his arms! This time, she was quite frightened!
From an outside perspective, it was Fu Xuelan who was on duty that night! Otherwise, Liu Richen might not have survived!
At this time, Lin Jiatai grinned. His voice sounded like he was about to cry!
