"I saw the general holding two water-polished eight-edged steel whips in his hands, majestic and murderous, leaping in front of the pass, shouting loudly, "Hey! Fanbang's little boy Jin Wushu, can you recognize the double whip Hu Yanzhuo! Everyone, Hu Yanzhuo!"
Who is it? Think of the one hundred and eight generals in Shuibo Liangshan, the seventy-two evil spirits in the Thirty-six Heavenly Gangs, Hu Yanzhuo is the reincarnation of the Tianwei Star in the Thirty-six Heavenly Gangs!..."
The storyteller spoke vividly and the tea drinkers listened with gusto.
There was a pot of jasmine tea and a platter of dried fruits and snacks on the table a little further away by the window. Fang Yongyan was drinking tea slowly while looking across the street.
Across the street is a new-style Shikumen building, with a tall and magnificent inner gate tower, a newly painted red lacquer door, and copper rings inlaid with lion swallowing mouths on the left and right of the door.
Sitting in Fang Yongyan's position, he could clearly see the hostess watering the flowerpots with a watering can on the balcony opposite.
There was a creaking sound on the stairs, and Hua Kezhi, who had put on makeup, quickly went upstairs. He looked around for a while, and then he came to Fang Yongyan.
He looked back at the storyteller on the stage and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that you can still hear northern storytelling in Shanghai. Lao Fang, do you think these Shanghainese people can understand it?"
"You're five minutes late." Fang Yongyan raised his wrist and glanced at his watch.
Hua Kezhi pulled up a chair and sat down, picked up the teapot and poured himself a bowl of tea, and said: "There is a traitor hidden inside. I have been extra careful recently. On the way here just now, I felt someone was following me, so I wandered around the alley more.
Two laps..."
"Is it an enemy?" Fang Yongyan asked quickly.
Hua Kezhi shook his head and said, "They are from the Ax Gang. I changed my appearance and they didn't dare to recognize me. They followed me for more than ten minutes."
"Why are the Ax Gang looking for you?"
"The League of Nations investigation team came to Shanghai. Do you know about this?"
"I know. It was published in the newspaper. The chief representative of the investigation team is an Englishman named Edrich. It is said that he is also a knight."
"Wang Yaqiao is going to attack Edrich." Hua Kezhi picked up the tea bowl and took a sip.
Fang Yongyan was surprised: "Why did Wang Yaqiao touch Edrich?"
"As soon as Edrich arrived in Shanghai, he couldn't wait to be interviewed by Japanese reporters. When talking about the Northeast issue, he had a clearly biased attitude towards the Japanese."
"oh……"
"With Wang Guanqiao's temper, he definitely can't stand this kind of thing. He wants to kill him as a warning to others!"
"Anyone really dares to touch this Wang Guanqiao... However, if the League of Nations representative is assassinated, it will inevitably lead to a diplomatic incident."
Hua Kezhi was quite dissatisfied: "Old Fang, to be honest, although I don't agree with assassination activities, I don't want to take it out on killing one or two haggis! Besides, he dares to touch Bald Jiang, let alone a bullshit knight.
!”
Fang Yongyan thought for a while and said: "I don't recommend you to get involved in this matter. If the matter is exposed in the future, it will definitely have a negative impact on us."
Hua Kezhi said: "Don't worry, I don't need to do anything this time. Wang Guanqiao hired two professional killers from other places."
Fang Yongyan looked out the window and said, "Okay, let's talk about business. Should I talk first or you?"
"Let me talk first. Lao Fang, you also know that the red team does not have many available people. Can you spare two people and lend them to me temporarily?"
"I'll lend it to you? Comrade Kezhi, are you confused? My subordinates are all intelligence personnel and are not suitable for operational tasks!"
"I didn't ask them to shoot and kill people. They were just responsible for some peripheral security work."
"No! This is a matter of principle and I don't agree."
Hua Kezhi leaned back, shook his head helplessly, and said: "You said there is a problem with the new people I developed, and you didn't agree to borrow them, but you didn't agree, ugh..."
Fang Yongyan looked at him and said, "You didn't contact Qiao Zhendong again, did you?"
"No."
"Really not?"
"Well, Lao Fang, I have always had a question about this matter."
"What question?"
"I personally checked Qiao Zhendong's gunshot wound. The bullet was only two centimeters away from the vital part. Assuming that he is indeed a traitor, the question is, is there such a life-threatening traitor?"
Hearing what Hua Kezhi said, Fang Yongyan could not help but feel shaken in his heart. He did not fully understand the details of the assassination of Liang Hongzhi.
"What are you going to do?"
"Involve him in this operation!"
"Then what?"
"As long as Shi Jiwei and Cheng Zuyi can be eliminated, it means Qiao Zhendong is fine. This is the principle of 11=2, right?"
The two people mentioned by Huakezhi were Shi Jiwei, the head of the Shanghai Station of the Party Affairs Investigation Department, and the traitor Cheng Zuyi.
The underground party has many intelligence networks in Shanghai, and there are no horizontal connections between the intelligence networks. If something happens to one person, everyone is at risk of being exposed.
Just like Cheng Zuyi's line, which is affiliated to Jiangsu Provincial Wei of China Engineering Group Corporation, he and Fang Yongyan belong to different superiors and have never met each other.
Within the Party Affairs Investigation Department, Shi Jiwei was well-known as an expert on torture. Very few of the prisoners interrogated by him remained silent.
After Cheng Zuyi was arrested, he could not bear the torture and not only handed over six radio stations, but also gave Shi Jiwei the address of the provincial government agency.
In just one night, Jiangsu Province Wei's underground organization in Shanghai was wiped out, and senior officials including Li Zhusheng, Sheng Zhongliang, etc. were all arrested and imprisoned.
In response to this matter, Hua Kezhi was secretly ordered by his superiors to carry out an anti-corruption operation. He must defeat the enemy's arrogance and not allow them to do whatever they want without being able to fight back.
…
Regarding the method proposed by Huakezhi, Fang Yongyan also felt that he could give it a try. After all, the reality was that there was indeed a lack of capable operators.
"Lao Fang, I don't quite understand why Shi Jiwei was included in this anti-rape operation?" Hua Kezhi asked.
Fang Yongyan said: "Originally, the organization sent us an intelligence agent codenamed Bayonet, and he had successfully infiltrated the Party Affairs Investigation Department. However, I recently discovered that this person's whereabouts are strange and there are many incomprehensible behaviors...
...You also know that I have been secretly investigating the spy hidden within us, so I became suspicious of him."
Hua Kezhi picked up the teapot, poured a cup of tea for Fang Yongyan, and said, "What is the connection between the bayonet and the anti-rape operation?"
Fang Yongyan took a sip of tea and continued: "Shi Jiwei is the head of the Shanghai Station of the Investigation Department. If Bayonet can provide Shi Jiwei's whereabouts, it can prove his innocence!"
Shi Jiwei, like Zhou Weilong, has a public identity to the outside world. His public identity is that of a supervisor of the Shanghai Police Department, a discreet civilian official.
If it weren't for the people around him, it would be impossible to know his external identity, let alone his whereabouts.
