Dai Li nodded immediately and said: "Principal, I have no other intention, I just want to do it casually. I don't want to really arrest Mrs. Wang's brother. Tell me, if I really want to arrest someone, there are some people, can he leave Chongqing?"
The committee chairman thought for a moment and said softly: "This should probably be regarded as a small warning."
Dai Li immediately said: "Yes, it's just a small warning."
At this time, the committee leader turned his head and stared at Dai Li, "Who do you want to warn?"
Dai Li's mind turned around and he was suddenly startled by what he said casually!
It’s hard to guess the Holy Will! But you have to guess it! And guess it accurately! Otherwise, how can you perform your duties!
But if you guess the Holy Will, you must not let the Holy One know that you have guessed the Holy Will! If you can guess the mind of a committee member, then you are not far from death! No matter how generous a boss is, he does not want to be guessed by his subordinates.
Be thoughtful!
He blinked and thought for a moment, then suddenly said with a smile: "Actually, it's not really a warning. I'm just showing off to Chairman Long. It's really a little trick."
The committee leader stared at him, nodded, and said, "Okay, you can continue."

On the morning of December 21st, Kunming North Railway Station.
The dilapidated brick houses in front of the station are lined up and crowded together. Some Yi women, with their hair wrapped in turbans and their clothes tucked into their skirts, sitting barefoot and cross-legged on the street, shouting and going about their small business. Bullock carts and horse-drawn carriages rumbled by.
.The whole street is noisy and chaotic.
Xu Shaoquan, the leader of Wang Jingwei's guard platoon, walked out of the crowd carrying a suitcase. Walking behind him was Chen Changzu, Mrs. Wang's brother. They entered the station and prepared to take the train to Hanoi.
The carriage was also noisy and chaotic. Almost all passengers were carrying burdens or carrying baskets. They crowded around and shouted hello. Chickens and ducks were squawking under the seats. The stewards shouted at passengers not to block the aisle.
Xu Shaoquan and Chen Changzu had their own seats. They struggled to stuff their suitcases and bags into the luggage rack.
The train finally started and moved forward with a rumbling sound.
Xu Shaoquan accidentally discovered that there were spies watching them on the train. He hesitated for a while, then pushed Chen Changzu to the back of the train, trying to find a place to hide him. But there was no hiding place on the train!
When the train arrived at Mengzi Station, the surveillance agents rushed up and dragged Chen Changzu off the train.
Xu Shaoquan stepped forward to stop him, but was held back by the agents' pistols. He jumped out of the car in a hurry, found a phone in the station office, and called Li Hongmo, the chief of the police department of the Yunnan Provincial Government, asking him to tell Chairman Long that Chen Changzu had been arrested.
The spies from the Yunnan Station of the Military Command captured him!
22-6
At around one o'clock in the afternoon, Dai Li, who was waiting for news in his office, received a telegram from Huang Yifu, the director of Yunnan Station, which read: "I have just been severely scolded by Chairman Long and ordered me to release him. Please give me instructions."
Dai Li immediately called back: "Let him go and send him to Kunming!"
At ten o'clock in the night, Dai Li received another telegram from Huang Yifu: "Li Hongmo sent Chen Changzu to a box truck. There seemed to be food and drink in the truck. The door was locked and a 'Yunnan Provincial Government' seal was affixed. At this time
, the truck drove towards Laoguan."
Dai Li called back: "Very good, I understand."
22-7
A few minutes later, Dai Li took a car to the official residence of the first committee member to report the outcome of the matter.
He whispered: "Principal, from this incident, we can see that Long Zhizhou may have second thoughts! What I am most worried about is that he will be used by Wang!"
The first committee member looked back at him with cold and deep eyes. He stared at him for a long time and then said softly: "You know, when this country is in danger, I still want to comfort him with words!"
Dai Li immediately said: "Principal, I understand. I will send a message to Chairman Long to apologize when I get back!"
The committee leader nodded and said softly: "Go ahead."
Dai Li returned to his office, and after sending his apology telegram, he sat behind his desk almost until dawn!
He kept thinking about what the committee chairman once said: "This should probably be regarded as a small warning."
He has been thinking, if this is a small warning, then what is a big warning? What should I do?

Late at night, Longyun Mansion, Weiyuan Street, Kunming.
Lu Han, who had been recuperating in Kunming recently, suddenly came by car to see Long Yun.
As soon as Lu Han sat down, he stared at Long Yun and asked, "I heard that you reprimanded Huang Yifu from Yunnan Station. Is this true?"
Long Yun nodded and said: "He actually arrested Chen Changzu! How could he be so bold!"
At this time, Lu Han stared at him and said nothing for a long time. But his eyes were anything but simple!
Long Yun was an extremely shrewd person. He looked at Lu Han's eyes and thought about his question for a moment, and realized that there was something imprudent about him.
He patted the armrest of the seat and said, "It doesn't look right, doesn't it? It doesn't look right!"
Lu Han did not want to teach this eldest brother and commander a lesson. They grew up together, traveled the world together, experienced countless ups and downs, and knew each other very well!
At this time, he saw that Long Yun had understood what he meant, so he said softly: "Zhizhou, it's best to keep some distance from Wang!"
Long Yun pondered for a moment and nodded silently.
From the sidelines, Dai Li arrested Chen Changzu and warned Wang and others behind Chen Changzu.
But to Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, this little warning was meant to warn Long Yun!
He asked Dai Li, "Who do you want to warn?" He just wanted to see how much Dai Li had guessed!
After that, Long Yun did keep a little distance from Wang and others! It was this little distance that made Long Yun, who was most likely to raise troops to support Wang, never take action! It also made the "Barrel Plan" formulated by Takahashi fall short!
This is something no one expected!

In fact, on December 21st, a major event shocked the whole country.
All Chongqing newspapers, Xi'an newspapers, and more newspapers from other places, especially the major newspapers in Nanjing, Shanghai and Peking, broke a big news almost at the same time! Vice Chairman of the National Defense Supreme Council of the National Government and Vice President of the Kuomintang,
Mr. Wang Jingwei, Chairman of the National Political Participation Conference, his wife and his followers flew to Kunming on December 18th, and then flew to Hanoi on December 19th! He left Chongqing and ran away!
But the purpose of Mr. Wang's escape this time and what he wanted to do were not clear from the news in the newspaper. Instead, it was a complete mess! It was almost everything!
Some people say that Chairman Wang's departure this time is a betrayal of the country, which is inappropriate! They even say that he is a national scum! But there is very little information about this, because no one has accurate information!
What was most talked about in newspapers was speculation about why Chairman Wang wanted to leave! Some said there was intrigue within the government, and that Chairman Chiang Kai-shek could not tolerate Chairman Wang! They said Chairman Wang had no power at all! He did not even have the right to speak!
Some newspapers said that Chairman Wang advocated peace for the sake of the country! It was to end the war as soon as possible! No matter what method is used now! As long as the war can be ended as soon as possible!
Some newspapers even said that there is nothing wrong with negotiating peace with Japan, it is even the best way! If China fights another country, it will be destroyed, which is equivalent to the destruction of the country! Wait, wait, it’s all a mess!
Most of those supporting Chairman Wang came from newspapers in occupied areas such as Peking, Shanghai, and Nanjing. These newspapers had large circulation and great influence, and almost had the upper hand! Some newspapers in the Kuomintang-controlled areas also echoed the sentiment.
There were very few newspapers that criticized Chairman Wang, and they were even suppressed by many major newspapers!
Domestic public opinion is in chaos, and society can say anything! There is also chaos within the government, especially some people from the Wang faction, who are talking in private, and even collude secretly, fanning the flames from all sides, lest the world will not be chaotic!
22-10
Chen Zifeng, Xiao Ancheng and others who were far away in Xi'an were also stunned when they saw the news.
They vaguely realized that this was probably the "Barrel Plan" formulated by the Japanese! At least that was one of its contents!
Another feeling they have is that the country is currently in chaos, and Chairman Chiang must be under great pressure!
Some newspapers even publicly issued appeals, asking the government to respectfully invite Chairman Wang to come back to power and take charge of the overall situation!
22-11
Faced with such a situation, Chen Zifeng, Xiao Ancheng and Qiao Yanfang were sitting in the ward, all worried.
Because they all have a feeling that this is the "barrel plan" formulated by the Japanese at work! But they can't give any strong evidence! Let alone make sense!
They all want to find out and stop the "Barrel Plan" formulated by the Japanese! But now, they are living in Xi'an and have no way!
Chen Zifeng finally couldn't sit still anymore and said, "An Thief, take care of yourself! Xiao Qiao, come with me!"
Qiao Yanfang asked: "Where to go?"
He waved his arm and said loudly: "Don't ask, we will find out when we get there!"
22-12
Chen Zifeng and Qiao Yanfang left the hospital and got into the antique car at the door. He drove the car eastward.
When they finally arrived at the place, Qiao Yanfang was also surprised! They actually arrived outside the "eighth office" gate of Qixianzhuang!
The first person to come out to greet them was undoubtedly Wang Huaiyuan, the security officer of the "Eighth Office".
He reached out to Chen Zifeng from a distance, grabbed his hand and shook it hard, but said: "Captain Chen, are you visiting me or our Secretary-General Liu?"
Chen Zifeng said slyly: "If I visit you first, then I must be in trouble! I am not in trouble now, so I came to visit Mr. Liu. What's the matter, can you inform us?"
Director Wang smiled slyly and said, "Secretary-General Liu already knows, you two can go in."
This is something that shocked Chen Zifeng! Mr. Liu already knew about it as soon as we arrived! How did he know!
22-13
Chen Zifeng and Qiao Yanfang entered Courtyard No. 1 and saw Mr. Liu standing at the door of the wing, looking at them with a smile.
No one expected that Mr. Liu actually extended his hand to Qiao Yanfang first, and said with a smile on his face: "Oh, isn't this Miss Xiao Qiao! Oh, Miss Xiao Qiao is getting more and more beautiful after not seeing her for a few days.
To tell you the truth, I was happy when I saw Miss Xiao Qiao! Welcome, welcome!"?
