At the coal yard wharf near Jiujiawei, Lao Liu stood on the pier, holding the captured people up the gangway with difficulty, while looking anxiously at the shore, the boarding speed was much slower than expected.

Although I don’t know how the organization has used to hold the enemy back, the enemy will eventually react. Once the spies are chased to the dock, these weak comrades will have no power to resist at all.

Thinking of this, he shouted loudly to his guards: "Go to the coal yard to stare. Someone comes to organize defense immediately. Don't be in a relationship. The personnel are transferred and ready to evacuate at any time."

"yes."

The guards ran to the coal yard not far from the shore with guns, using coal piles and buildings as bunkers, opened the insurance and aimed the weapons in the direction of the execution ground, blocking the road to the dock.

After seeing this, the crew of the freighter also slipped down with a cable and went to the coal yard to support him. Even though they had never known each other before, as long as they were comrades, they were willing to trust them with their lives.

In the cockpit, Ban Jun looked at the scene in front of him, his eyes full of memories: "I have been in the Fruit Party for so long, and I have forgotten when was the last time I saw such a scene, what about you?"

"I have seen it many times, but not from this perspective. The police station often arrests comrades who are operating in the concession. I have seen with my own eyes many people were arrested and finally died in front of me."

Meng Ting's face next to him was as usual, as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him, but his slightly beating brows meant that he was not calm inside, and this must be an extremely painful memory.

It was just that his long-term underground work prevented him from revealing too much emotion. Even if his dearest comrades died, even if his comrades who shared life and death were tortured, he had to maintain restraint.

Ban Jun glanced at Meng Ting, and his eyes suddenly became a little sore. Both of them were lurking in the enemy's heart. However, the nature was different. He could not imagine what the other party experienced, so it must be very painful.

The French were open to local political thoughts, and even thieves could become representatives of anarchists, but they implemented high-pressure policies to various thoughts in the colonies and concessions.

Especially the underground party, they would rather kill the wrong person than let him go. Once arrested, the underground party members would be secretly executed or transferred to the National Government, without any investigation or trial.

This is quite ironic for France, which gave birth to the Napoleon Civil Code and is known as the birthplace of democracy in the capitalist world. It can be seen that their freedom and power also depend on the object.

Ban Jun hesitated for a moment and asked, "I have read the Jinling Evening News, which said that you rely on the help of the Cao Gang to solve the case. Is this true?

He felt that such an old agent who had been lurking for many years could rely on his own ability to solve the case, and there was no need to have anything to do with the underworld members of the Cao Gang, which could easily cause criticism.

"good."

Meng Ting nodded immediately and admitted happily: "The Cao Gang has a great influence. The city of the government, the French Concession, and the public concession dominated by Britain and the United States have their shadows.

Organized criminal gangs such as bags, robbers, demolition parties, and burglary will all give the Cao Gang a fixed share. If the Cao Gang wants to do one thing, it only takes a few phone calls.

We must use such a powerful intelligence force effectively. If we don’t use it, the enemy will use it. At that time, the party’s activities in Shanghai will be difficult to move forward.

Therefore, the organization needs me to serve as a bridge connecting the Caogang and the public opinion community, and to win the support of patriots. Doing such transactions with both parties can reduce the attention of the concessions and the National Government."

He chose to inform Shanghai intelligence and then said: "In the future, you will take over my liaison task with the Cao Gang in the concession. You must remember that the important thing is the result, not the process.

People’s hearts are complicated. People are always tolerant of incompetent people and don’t care too much about things. A shrewd detective and a liar who spends money, the latter is more popular.”

Meng Ting is not a talkative person. If Ban Jun had not taken over his job, he would not have said these words. Even so, he still did not disclose the specific situation of the contact task.

Ban Jun was silent and was another consequentialist. Like his old classmate, they didn't mind making a deal with the devil at all as long as they could achieve their goals and the price was appropriate.

He smiled bitterly and shook his head: "After this incident, someone mentioned you, the Shanghai detective, to describe it as saying "Doess the world and stealing reputation". I heard that someone had set up a bet with you and Formosa?"

“Haha, yes.”

Meng Ting smiled sly: "You should buy Fumosa to win the game set up by the Jinling Cao Gang. I bought a lot of it myself. Don't give away money for free, and you can earn some activity funds."

Ban Jun was so amused and laughed at the news. He didn't expect that the other party would actually bet on him and lose. This was a standard behind-the-scenes operation. If the Cao Gang knew about it, he would probably have the intention to kill this person.

Meng Ting looked at the comrades who were climbing onto the deck one by one, turned his head and said, "As for other people's evaluation, my personal reputation is not important than those comrades who even sacrificed their lives."

Yes, compared to the sacrificed person...

Ban Jun understood the other party's meaning. The underground party members did not pay attention to selfishness. In the face of tasks assigned by the organization, personal honor and disgrace were not within their consideration. This is a principle and a requirement.

Just like myself, the customs anti-smuggling department is a place that many people dream of going to, not to mention that under the operation of old classmates, he has made a fortune. Such a position is hard to buy.

But without everyone, how can we get a small family? If we don’t overthrow the mountains above our heads, and drive away imperialism, what’s the point of enjoying the best material conditions in our personal life? After death, we will only have a dry bone.

Ban Jun sighed: "You will not arouse suspicion when you do this. Unfortunately, you finally entered the agent headquarters. You shouldn't participate in this operation. You can play a greater role.

The intelligence chief can access a lot of confidential information. The Fructus Party’s plans for our party will be issued to the operation personnel at the secret service headquarters through you. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.”

He was very clear about the importance of the position of intelligence chief of the secret service headquarters. For example, the left important person is his own person, and any actions of the secret service cannot be hidden from the underground party. This is an extremely important position.

If there is a arrest or a traitor appears, the organization can know the situation first before the enemy so as to make corresponding reactions, which can save a lot of time and save the lives of countless comrades.

"hehe."

Meng Ting laughed out loud after hearing this, and then said with a smile: "Don't you think Xu Enzeng will always let me be the intelligence chief, you underestimate this old spy too much, things are not that simple.

It was a coincidence that I entered the agents headquarters. If I hadn't been afraid of arousing suspicion, I would rather continue to lurk in Shanghai. This sudden opportunity is not a good thing, and it means that the situation has lost control.

Xu Enzeng took me from Shanghai to the secret service headquarters as the intelligence chief. He seemed to be respectful, but he did not inform the branches of my information, which means that the people below did not know me.

He treated me as a tool. If the plan is successful, he is good at leading the way, and if it is not successful, he means I have no experience. Otherwise, why would he choose a pure layman to serve as the intelligence department chief?

In this case, even if I can gain a foothold, I am just a puppet. You have been in the government office and know what those people without real power are like, just wasting time."

Ban Jun recalled that things seemed to be like this. In such a big ambush in the execution ground, Xu Enzeng just arranged Meng Ting on the north side of the highway, which was obviously not a sign of importance.

The other party may need a scapegoat and take the blame when the action fails. Then he finds an outsider from Shanghai without any backstage, so as not to push people out and die and offend the senior management.

Meng Ting continued to sneer: "Instead of becoming a scapegoat, it is better to take action first and rescue these captured comrades when the enemy is trusted. This is what the superior leader means.

Hiding in the intelligence system is different from luring in other places. All experiences must be flawless. It can be said that the history of studying in France alone determines that I cannot go far.

I served as the section chief for several months. In the secret service headquarters alone, the secret service office sent five or six groups of personnel to investigate my details. If I don’t leave, it may not take long for me to appear in prison."

Ban Jun understood that Zuo Chong was a child of a large family in Ningbo, and his family relationship was innocent. His experience from birth to studying at Zhejiang Police Officers School was very clear, so he was highly valued by Dai Chunfeng and the Fruit Party.

He said regretfully: "Even if this is the case, it's a pity. Before receiving the order, I really didn't expect you to be your own person. No wonder I could lurk around an old spy like Xu Enzeng."

"It's no pity. As a person who has experienced this industry, I want to tell you that when you feel dangerous, danger must have come. There must be no luck, as it will only be exposed.

To retreat decisively, you must learn to resist temptation. It is not only wine, sex, wealth, but also the greed in your heart. Qualified intelligence personnel should not be controlled by emotions, but should be controlled by emotions."

Meng Ting said seriously, paused and added: "In addition, you go to see Zuo Chong before the action. I am opposed. This person is an intelligence expert from the Guo Party and has rich experience in counter-espionage.

It is a very abnormal behavior for your family to leave Jinling suddenly. Fortunately, Zuo Chong trusts you more and has not sent anyone to the countryside, otherwise you will be exposed after asking for a little bit.

In short, if you say a wrong sentence or make a wrong action, what awaits you will be endless torture. Don’t think that you are old classmates, the spy will be open to you.

Lurking, the first thing you have to do is to deceive yourself and think about the problem from the perspective of the enemy. Only in this way can you deceive those cunning opponents and hope you will be smooth in your new job."

"Thanks."
