Chapter 171 A little plan
Cheng Qianfan already had a relatively complete plan on how to lure Fang Muheng to rescue Yang Ximei.
However, after learning an unexpected situation from Li Hao and Pi Dan, he knew that his plan had to be adjusted.
“You mean, you met He Guan and Liu Bo on Maggie Road in the afternoon?” Cheng Qianfan asked in surprise.
"Yes, Officer He, Officer Liu and a man. The three of them seem to be looking for someone." Li Hao said.
“Who is that other person? Do you know him?” Cheng Qianfan asked.
Li Hao shook his head.
The preserved man next to him suddenly said, "Brother Fan, I know, that's the young master of the Fang family."
“Young Master of the Fang family?”
“Yes, Brother Fan, the eldest son of the Fang family from Guohua Food Factory.” Pidan said, “I even ate the steamed buns he shared.”
Cheng Qianfan was extremely surprised. Fang Muheng was actually with He Guan and Liu Bo?
Especially Fang Muheng, this guy has a deep prejudice against patrolling.
He was very puzzled as to how these three people could get together.
…
“He gave you steamed buns?” Cheng Qianfan asked calmly. He found that his understanding of Fang Muheng was not comprehensive enough.
“Zi Dantou originally didn’t dare to ask for food from the young master of the Fang family. One time he was very hungry..." Pi Dan said.
Cheng Qianfan has already sketched out the whole process in his mind through Pi Dan’s narration:
Little beggars usually don’t dare to beg from people like Fang Muheng, who are well-dressed and look like they are from a rich family. These people are extremely disgusted with dirty little beggars, and they may get beaten if they don’t do it.
Once, Yan Li was so hungry that he had the courage to beg for alms from a young man on Honolulu Road.
He recognized this man as the eldest son of the Fang family from Guohua Food Factory.
This person is none other than Fang Muheng.
Fang Muheng had nothing to eat, so he went to a steamed bun shop not far away and bought two hot meat buns to give to the patient.
I was hungry, and I had to eat it when I picked it up, but was stopped.
In the blank gaze of Yu Litou:
Fang Muheng didn’t mind being dirty, so he even wiped the dysentery’s hands with a handkerchief and told him to wash his hands when eating, pay attention to hygiene, and be careful not to get a stomachache after eating.
‘You have no medicine, and if you eat too much, you will eat people to death. ’ Fang Muheng said worriedly.
This day is the cleanest day since I can remember.
The proud man showed his clean hands to his friends, his eyes twinkling.
…
I did not eat alone.
He told his companions about it.
From then on, the news spread that the eldest son of the Fang family from the Guohua Food Factory was a good person and would buy steamed buns for the little beggar to eat.
A dozen young beggars even held internal meetings. Every day, one person would take turns going to the eldest young master of the Fang family to beg for money.
Hands must be washed.
Some little beggars disagreed, but Yu Li Tou was very insistent!
He insisted that only clean hands were worthy of eating Mr. Fang’s meat buns.
The preserved egg said that he remembered that that day was his turn, he washed his hands and went to Fang Muheng to beg. Fang Muheng glanced at him and smiled, apparently used to it.
He took the preserved egg to the steamed bun shop diagonally opposite the declaration hall and bought two meat buns. He didn't even forget to carefully instruct the preserved egg to finish eating before leaving, so as not to be robbed by other beggars.
…
Cheng Qianfan’s heart is extremely complicated.
From Pi Dan’s mouth, he seemed to see a new and clearer Fang Muheng.
Yes, this person has no revolutionary experience, is not cautious enough in his actions, and can even be said to be a little naive, so that he has been used as bait by the enemy many times without knowing it.
However, Fang Muheng is patriotic and he loves this country.
After the 128th Anti-Japanese War, Fang Muheng, who was far away in the United States, immediately returned to China to contribute to the anti-Japanese war.
Fang Muheng is passionate.
What moved Cheng Qianfan the most was Fang Muheng's kindness to the poor, buying food for the little beggar. This may not be a big deal, but he could take out a handkerchief and wipe his hands with scabies without any objection, and tell him to eat. Pay attention to hygiene, this is very rare, this is true kindness.
He would also tell Pidan to finish eating the steamed buns before leaving, so as not to be robbed by others. This is extremely careful.
Cheng Qianfan had to wonder if such a careful person was really Fang Muheng?
The kind-hearted Fang Muheng, and the "naive" Fang Muheng who is inexperienced in revolution.
Cheng Qianfan was filled with emotion. He suddenly felt that Fang Muheng like this should actually go to the northwest, to the red capital. There, Fang Muheng should be able to quickly grow into a very outstanding, passionate and pure kind-hearted person. Revolutionary warrior!
However, this does not prevent him from still thinking that Fang Muheng is an 'idiot'.
In Shanghai, on the hidden front where dangers abound, Fang Muheng’s kindness, naivety and passion are worthy of admiration, but they are truly double-edged swords.
You must know that this has been exploited by the enemy twice without his own knowledge!
…
Liu Bo, He Guan, and Fang Muheng, these three guys actually got mixed up.
Liu Bo, a Japanese spy, He Guan, who does things without thinking and recklessly, and Fang Muheng, who acts without thinking, is "childish" and acts equally impulsively.
Cheng Qianfan felt overwhelmed just thinking about it.
The cunning Liu Bo was able to play tricks on these two idiots.
They are looking for someone?
Who to look for?
Ahai!
Cheng Qianfan immediately came to his own judgment.
A Hai was shot, escaped, and is being hunted by secret agents.
Based on the information currently available, Ah Hai is the comrade who worked in the declaration office, contacted and guided Fang Muheng to participate in the revolution.
He should also be the only comrade in the party that Fang Muheng knows and knows.
Now, something happened to Ah Hai, Fang Muheng should be very anxious and worried.
He wants to look for Ahai.
certainly can’t be found.
So, Fang Muheng asked He Guan and Liu Bo to help search.
Things seem to be back to the starting point, how did these three people get together, and why did Fang Muheng, who had a deep prejudice against patrolmen, become friends with He Guan and Liu Bo.
No, to be precise, it is no longer just a friend:
Although Fang Muheng lacks revolutionary experience and is a bit naive, naivety does not mean he is a fool. He will never casually inform his friends about Ahai's situation.
This shows that He Guan and Liu Bo have been recognized by Fang Muheng.
Are these three people a like-minded gang?
Cheng Qianfan had such a guess in his mind.
His heart was shocked, and his expression was surprised:
This is all a mess!
Knowing that these three people were involved, the most direct impact was that Cheng Qianfan had to give up the previously conceived plan to lure Fang Muheng into the trap.
The reasons for abandoning the plan are very straightforward:
Because of Liu Bo!
…
Cheng Qianfan was particularly vigilant and deeply fearful of Liu Bo, a Rite lurking in the patrol room.
You must know that Liu Bo has always had a good relationship with Cheng Qianfan.
After Cheng Qianfan entered the patrol room, Liu Bo took good care of him.
In the eyes of Cheng Qianfan, Liu Bo is a very enthusiastic patrolman with a certain sense of justice, which can be said to be extremely rare among patrolmen.
If Cheng Qianfan had not strictly adhered to the organizational discipline of a covert agent, never revealed his political leanings in front of outsiders, and never considered recruiting his colleagues around him to join the revolution, otherwise, his Red Party identity would have been exposed long ago.
A Japanese man lurked under the identity of a Chinese and became a senior patrolman in the patrol room. He even won the favor of a Red Party sleeper agent.
Now that Cheng Qianfan thinks about it, he still shudders.
With an extremely cunning Japanese like Liu Bo, his previous plan set by Fang Muheng could not be used at all.
It was an extremely clever strategy used on Fang Muheng, and there was no need to worry about being discovered. In the eyes of Liu Bo, a Japanese special, the chance of being discovered was greatly increased.
Liu Bo, Japanese.
Japanese, Liu Bo.
How to lure Liu Bo away and not get involved in this matter?
Suddenly, Cheng Qianfan's heart moved.
Why do I have to think about luring Liu Bo away...
He has been thinking about how to deal with Liu Bo, and now—
Seems like this is a good opportunity?
