Ishida stood up, bowed slightly to them, and walked away with his face raised.
Kawakami and Kuriyama could only stare at his retreating back angrily, unable to say anything!

Northern Shaanxi, Yan'an, Yangjialing.
After Lin Jiatai took up the post of commander of the First Battalion of the Central Guard Corps, he was deeply influenced by Zhou Xing. On the first day he took office, he took three company commanders and battalion officers to inspect the roads, mountains, fields around Yangjialing, and the surrounding areas.
The deserted slopes were closely inspected.
Check whether all sentry posts are tight, whether the warning targets are clear, and whether the soldiers' vigilance is high enough!
He also personally walked through the Yanhe River on the west side of Yangjialing. He carefully asked about the width of the river, the depth of the river in the rainy and dry seasons, whether people could swim across the river, how to inspect the boats on the river, etc., etc., etc., etc., etc., all in detail
examine.
He found any omissions and immediately asked for corrections.
For example, southerners and northerners have completely different voices when asking and answering passwords, which may cause misunderstandings and even let suspicious people go! Another example is that cadres and soldiers who come to Yangjialing for official business will usually notify the guard camp in advance, but there is no such thing in the notice.
It includes the number of people! There is no name of the visitor! This must be corrected!
He said: "You all remember, if someone wants to come here for business, you should not only ask for their name and position, but also the number of people. When they come, they must be checked carefully! No one can be wrong!"
Those officers did not expect that the new battalion commander would find loopholes on the first day he took office! In this place, any small loophole is a big problem! They would never dare to take it lightly!
Only two days after Lin Jiatai took office, he became acutely aware that Chief Zhou's worries were real! Those spies who had sneaked into Yan'an must be lurking around! And they were extremely harmful!
He couldn't tell whether among the cadres and soldiers who came to Yangjialing on official business, there were students who came to Yan'an from all over the country! He also couldn't tell whether there were any spies who had sneaked into Yan'an among those students!
This problem is extremely serious, but he cannot solve it! This makes him worried all the time!

Because Li Xiulan was educated, she was assigned to work in the Education Section of the Border District Government.
The head of the Education Section, an old comrade, said very carefully: "Comrade Xiao Li, you should familiarize yourself with your work first. Our next focus is to open more literacy classes in various places. Our party's principles and policies must be
Through these literacy classes, it is conveyed to every villager."
Li Xiulan knew that this job must be very important.
When several young comrades in the department heard that Li Xiulan came from Shanghai and worked in the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee, and later in the "Eighth Office" of Wuhan, they respected her very much.
They said: "Sister Li, you are an old revolutionary! When you have time, tell us stories about Shanghai or Wuhan."
Li Xiulan had no idea that now she was not only Sister Li, but also an old revolutionary, and she felt indescribable happiness in her heart.

Every night when Li Xiulan came home, she would rush to make dinner and then ask Agui to come over for dinner.
She soon saw that Agui's mind was not on eating at all. He was so preoccupied!
"Agui, what's wrong?" she asked softly.
"Don't ask, it's all about work." Lin Jiatai shook his head, picking up the rice one bite at a time.
"I know you must be in trouble at work. You must have something to do. Mr. Liu always said, you are so smart, you must have something to do." She looked at him, hoping that he would cheer up.
But Lin Jiatai's doubts were too heavy, and his mind was filled with his security work.
However, Li Xiulan still had a way to deal with him.
After eating and clearing away the dishes, she saw that Agui was still looking sad, so she sat next to him and stroked her belly.
Immediately, Agui was attracted by her action, and he also came over and gently touched her belly.
"Is it bigger than a few days ago?" he asked Xiulan carefully.
Li Xiulan burst out laughing, "We had calculated so hard that we could only have three months, but you can tell it's too big!"
Agui also had a smile on his face, "Xiulan, I'm so anxious. You must be good, understand."
Li Xiulan smiled and said: "I know, you don't need to be nagging." After a moment, she whispered again: "Do you want to hug me?"
So Lin Jiatai stood up, hugged her tightly in his arms, and didn't let go for a while.

Shanghai, International Hotel.
Mr. Sato and Takashi returned to the hotel room after attending the meeting in the confidential conference room of the Japanese military headquarters.
They sat together, recalling what was said at this afternoon's meeting, and considering what situations required them to exchange views.
Mr. Sato admired Takashi's stability and carefulness. Takashi also learned from Mr. Sato's wisdom and sophistication.
Therefore, although they belong to the Navy and Army respectively, it is very rare for them to establish a working relationship of mutual trust.
At this moment, Takahashi unexpectedly came to visit. This surprised both Mr. Sato and Takashi. Why didn't he tell him something at the meeting, or did he say it during the meeting instead of making a special trip?
Takahashi smiled and sat down in front of them. He thought for a moment before speaking.
He said: "Mr. Sato, there is such a situation and I would like to hear your opinion."
Mr. Sato stretched out his hand to him and said, "Takahashi-kun, you're welcome. Please tell me."
Takahashi whispered: "I got such information that there is a person named Long in the Communist organization. He is responsible for the work related to telegram encryption or deciphering codes. It seems that he has expertise in telegram encryption.
We have made some progress and developed two encryption methods, one is the 'one-five-tail' encryption method, and the other is the 'random number encryption method'. This has been appreciated by senior leaders of both parties."
"Which level of senior management are you talking about?" Mr. Sato asked softly.
"The Central Confidential Bureau of Yan'an!" Takahashi said meaningfully.
Mr. Sato couldn't help but nodded vigorously. This point is very important! It shows that these two encryption methods are indeed very good!
"Are these two encryption methods used?" he asked.
"I don't know about this. Now that it has been appreciated by the senior leaders of the Communist Party, it may be used soon!"
Only then did Mr. Sato realize that Takahashi’s original intention was not here. No one can stop whether the parties change the encryption method! No matter how you look at it, this matter is not within the scope of their work!
So, he stared at Takahashi, waiting for him to continue.
Sure enough, Takahashi continued: "This is information obtained in Shanghai. Naturally, I have to check it in Shanghai first."
"With Captain Takahashi's wisdom, he must have gained something!" Mr. Sato said with a smile on his face.
"Yes. I think there can't be many people named Long. I searched in Shanghai, and sure enough I found a person named Long! He once lived on Changbai Street outside Laobeimen, Nanshi, and opened a small restaurant.
A radio repair shop called 'Yixiang'."
"You said he had already left?"
"Yes, he left Shanghai and moved away around March or April this year!"
Mr. Sato had a sly smile on his face, "I believe he will not escape your grasp!"
Takahashi also laughed happily, "Thank you Mr. Sato for the compliment. I later found out that this man named Long moved to Wuhan. All his supplies were shipped to Wuhan! This morning, I got a report from the Wuhan Military Police,
It is said that there was indeed a man named Long in Wuhan who opened a radio repair shop called 'Yixiang'."
Mr. Sato had put away his smile and asked calmly: "The location!"
Gao Qiao said: "Mingxin Street in Hankou!"
At this time, not to mention Mr. Sato, even Takaji was shocked! Coming out of Shuiyu Street or Yunqiao Street was Mingxin Street! Those who lived in Shuiyu Street were Chen Zifeng's gendarmerie! Those who lived in Yunqiao Street
, is the investigation office of Luojiang!
Such a location surprised both Mr. Sato and Takashi!
The look in Takahashi's eyes showed that he had something even more surprising!
He said: "The Wuhan Gendarmerie reported that this radio repair shop has also moved! This man named Long transported all his luggage to Chongqing! You two, what do you think when you hear this situation?"
Mr. Sato looked back at Takaji, nodded, and signaled him to answer first.
Yingji was very surprised and said: "Why do I feel that this person named Long seems to have something to do with Chen Zifeng's gendarmerie! He almost followed them! Changbai Street in Shanghai is not far from Qiaojia Lane! In
Wuhan is even closer!”
He lowered his head and thought for a while, then said: "The compilation of the telegram encryption method should have nothing to do with Chen Zifeng! Could it be that it has something to do with that Xiao Ancheng? He is a telegraph operator! Could it be that he is a member of the Communist Party!"
Takahashi said: "When fighting in Luodian, he once sent a telegram for Lin Jiatai!"
Ying Si immediately said: "But that has been confirmed. It was Lin Jiatai who approached Chen Zifeng first. After Chen Zifeng agreed, Xiao Ancheng sent the telegram!" He shook his head and added: "I can't see that he has anything to do with the Communist Party.
Any clues about the relationship!”
Takahashi said seriously: "The information I got came from within the Communist Party! This is the clue! My insider also told me that the next main task of the person who compiled the new encryption method is to decipher the Japanese military secret messages!
"
The room fell silent, and the three of them did not speak for a while.
To be honest, this situation is very serious! Once the Japanese army's secret messages are deciphered, it will be a catastrophe!
Finally, Mr. Sato said softly: "Takahashi-kun, the situation you mentioned is very important, very important! When I go to Chongqing, I will check this person carefully! If he is a Communist, if he wants to decipher the Japanese military's secret messages,
For us, it is an enemy that must be eliminated!"
Yingji asked: "That person named Long, do you know his name?"
Takahashi said softly: "The name he uses in Shanghai and Wuhan is Long Ruihua!"
No one expected that an ambush planned by Huang Hanhui and Peng Shaoyong would involve Long Ruihua and Xiao Ancheng! This indicates that they are all in trouble!?
