Luo Xingchao felt vaguely uneasy. He wanted to confirm the aftermath of this matter so that he could be prepared to deal with it at any time.

Fortunately, there were a lot of ears around him. An hour later, Bi Wenxiang brought back the news about Qin San.

"They searched Fan Zhongfu and the dormitory where he was imprisoned for a long time, but in the end they found nothing. But this is normal. When Fan Zhongfu was caught, everything was searched. What can I find now?"

Bi Wenxiang's words made Luo Xingchao feel relieved. Fan Zhongfu had already treated the paper balls and sour plums before he died, which eliminated the evidence of contact with the outside world. His existence and safety were all gone.

Suddenly! He understood why Fan Zhongfu did this!

Fan Zhongfu is protecting his own safety! Yes, it must be so! After Fan Zhongfu contacted him, he was afraid that when he was rescued, due to the tacit understanding of internal and external cooperation, the senior management of No. 76 would notice that someone was working inside and responding, and would definitely conduct internal reviews. He would risk his contact with Fan Zhongfu and might be suspected, or wake up the senior management of No. 76, knowing that his insider exists, posed a threat to him, so he decided to end his life inside No. 76 in advance and prevent the rescue operation from proceeding.

Doing so will limit the attention of the No. 76 senior management to Fan Zhongfu’s personal behavior, thereby achieving the goal of protecting and hiding himself.

At the same time, he chose to steal the guns and injure people in public, and to spread the matter, so that he could get the real news so that the news could be passed on.

Suddenly thinking about this, Luo Xingchao felt a heat in his heart and his eyes couldn't help but get wet. Fan Zhongfu actually gave up his life without hesitation in order to protect himself. How tenacious perseverance and courage does this require to restrain his personal fear of death and make such sacrifices!

Luo Xingchao had sincere admiration for Fan Zhongfu at this time. Fan Zhongfu possessed noble qualities that others could not imagine. He believed that he could never do this in Fan Zhongfu. He could resolutely give up his life for a comrade-in-arms who had never been masked. The brilliant light emitted by Fan Zhongfu's noble character made Luo Xingchao's respect warm and moved!

After a long time, Luo Xingchao let out a long breath. He raised his hand and looked at the time. It was already eight o'clock in the evening. According to the original plan, Fan Zhongfu should have taken the sour plum at this time. After half an hour, he could be reborn.

But now it's too late! Luo Xingchao sat in his seat powerlessly. He couldn't do anything now. He could only wait for tomorrow to report the situation to his superiors and then accept the next order.

Time passed by little by little. At the intersection of Jisfier Road, Zuo Gang, who was hidden in the dark, stared at the gate of No. 76, anxiously waiting for the emergence of the target to rescue him, but until nine o'clock, the gate of No. 76 was still closed and no vehicles came out.

Can't wait any longer. Zuo Gang knew that something must have happened inside No. 76. He raised his hand and looked at his watch, and finally issued an order to cancel this rescue operation. At the same time, he quickly notified Zhou Hao who was waiting in Kangji Hospital to evacuate all personnel.

An hour later, a black car parked at the intersection of East Fourth Street and West Street. Without waiting for anyone to come, he also started the car and left quickly.

That night, Luo Xingchao did not dare to take the risk to the contact point to report the news. After all, he could not determine whether the top leaders of No. 76 had any doubts about Fan Zhongfu's death. If he secretly peeked at the movements of others, he would never have any mistakes at this time.

However, Zuo Gang quickly informed the news of the failure of the rescue operation. When Ning Zhiheng received the message, it was already late at night.

The rescue operation failed? Ning Zhiheng looked at Yi Dong'an who was coming to report in surprise and asked again: "Are you sure that the rescue target did not leave the gate of No. 76?"

Yi Huaan nodded heavily and replied: "Confirm, Team Leader Zuo and the others kept staring at the mouth of No. 76, and no car came out. Finally, it exceeded the action plan for an hour. Team Leader Zuo ordered the evacuation. An accident must have occurred inside No. 76, and Mu Yu did not send any news. I am very worried that Mu Yu would be noticed by people from No. 76 during the process of delivering the message, which led to an accident and the final rescue operation failed!"

Ning Zhiheng's face was solemn. This was the first time he had failed to preside over the years. Over the years, with his extraordinary mind and accurate judgment, every move of the enemy was within his calculations. In addition, he had enough elites under his command, and every move he presided over was successfully completed.

However, today, I thought that the detailed rescue operation had a problem, which made Ning Zhiheng feel a sense of frustration that had not been seen for a long time. He was extremely worried about the safety of Wutong and Muyu.

As he said before, doing intelligence work behind enemy lines is like dancing on steel wires between cliffs. Any small error, even a slight negligence in details, is enough to lead to extremely serious consequences.

This is the case now. There must be a problem in a certain link. However, because of the information partition, the safety of Muyu cannot be confirmed, so how can accurate information be obtained.

Ning Zhiheng thought for a long time and finally ordered: "The situation of Muyu is not determined. We cannot be slacking off at all. You can immediately evacuate Muyu's liaison officer. I will start from other aspects and find out what happened on No. 76. Only after the situation is clear can we resume work."

Ning Zhiheng was very regretful at this time that he still lacked enough spy inside the No. 76 Agent Headquarters. Once Mu Yu had a problem, he would not be able to grasp the situation of No. 76. This situation was too passive, so he should improve this as soon as possible in the future.

It seems that it is necessary for me to call Gu Feng He Siming, and go to No. 76 to find out the situation of Muyu and Wutong with his special identity.

In an apartment in the city, Lin Hanwen also received news of the failure of the operation. He sent the people to pick him up and waited until ten o'clock in the evening at the agreed location. He gave up the action and returned empty-handed, which made Lin Hanwen's heart suddenly nervous.

Could it be the worst situation? Shadow was noticed by No. 76 when it was carrying out the rescue operation. If so, the problem would be too serious. Lin Hanwen couldn't help but regret taking the risk to let Shadow perform the rescue operation. Shadow is too important to the organization. I hope this failure will not involve Shadow.

Lin Hanwen and Ning Zhiheng were both anxiously waiting to learn the truth of the matter.

Early the next morning, Deng Mingxiang received a report from his spy leader. He was taken away by someone at the surveillance point near Fan Zhongfu's house. When he arranged for the spy to change shifts in the morning, he found that four surveillance personnel were killed in the surveillance point, and Fan Zhongfu's family also disappeared last night.

"A bunch of food!" Deng Mingxiang couldn't help but curse. Now he was even more passive. Fan Zhongfu died on No. 76, and his family was missing now. Not only did he get nothing, he also had a lot of trouble. This time it was really not worth the effort. He had to ask someone to deal with it in a low-key manner, silently swallowing his breath.

The sixth congress of the pseudo-government was held the next day. The venue was the agent headquarters. The entire No. 76 agent headquarters was martial law. The entire street on Jisifeier Road was blocked. All the spies joined the security work of this meeting and surrounded the inside and outside the venue. Luo Xingchao, as a senior backbone, had no time to escape and could not convey any news.

The 300 famous National Congress representatives originally planned for the Sixth National Congress meetings, in the end, only 200 people were gathered to attend. The original three-day meeting schedule was held for one day, and the whole process was like a farce and ended in a hurry.

That night, when more than 30 National Congress representatives were released home, Fan Zhongfu's death soon spread to all walks of life in Shanghai. Everyone dared to be angry but not speak out for the atrocities against the Japanese and the pseudo-government.

The news was soon passed to Lin Hanwen and Ning Zhiheng's ears that night.

Ning Zhiheng finally understood the whole story. He immediately restored Muyu's exclusive contact point and waited for Muyu's specific news.

When Mu Yu finally passed on the specific situation back, Ning Zhiheng couldn't help but sigh inwardly. In order to save Wu Tong, he had done countless preparations and even let Mu Yu contact Wu Tong directly. However, he did not expect that this would become Wu Tong's death talisman. In order to protect Mu Yu's safety, Wu Tong resolutely died calmly.

It can be seen from this that in intelligence work, any situation or any accident may occur, and sometimes the fluctuations in the thoughts of intelligence officers are also a factor that cannot be ignored.

To be honest, from the perspective of gains and losses, Fan Zhongfu's choice is more rational, which can minimize the harm to the organization. He can clearly escape calmly, but everything ends like this, and Ning Zhiheng couldn't help but feel regretful.

That night, Ning Zhiheng appeared again at the back door of Qingshi Tea House, knocked on the door gently, then placed a paper bag at the door, turned around and hid in the darkness.

Xia Deyan opened the door, showed his figure, then picked up the paper bag, returned it to the room, and closed the door tightly.

Back in the room, Xia Deyan hurriedly opened the paper bag, which was only a piece of paper, which carefully described the specific situation of Fan Zhongfu's sacrifice, and finally wrote a passage: "Wutong's heroic sacrifice was all because of her comrades who protected her. She felt deeply grateful and felt sorry for me. I was safe and worry-free. Please rest assured and wait for my contact again, Shadow!"
