After dinner, Cheng Qianfan took Li Hao up to the second floor.
He opened the window, and the rain that had stopped for a while began to fall again.
Placing an enamel bowl with rice mixed with leftover soup and water outside the window sill, Cheng Qianfan called softly, and saw a cat appear quietly, meowing at him twice, and began to enjoy dinner.
Cheng Qianfan immediately closed the window.
This is a stray cat he took in. If the enamel bowl is not taken away, the cat will stay on the window sill guarding the bowl. The cat is very alert.
“Ah-Dai did a good job.” Cheng Qianfan said happily.
Hearing Cheng Qianfan praising Ah-Dai, Li Hao also smiled happily.
A-Dai is a young man who was arranged by Li Hao to work as a handyman in Sanweiheng.
Ah-Dai used to be a little beggar. One winter rainy night, the little beggar had a fever and passed out on the roadside. When Li Hao saw the little beggar, he remembered himself. He carried the little beggar on his back and opened the door of the medical center in the middle of the night.
The little beggar saved his life.
Because he looks stupid, he is called Dumb, but he is actually a quite clever child.
Ah-Dai works hard and will take the initiative to help Luo Laizi with his work. He also has a sweet mouth and soon became familiar with Luo Laizi.
According to what Ah-Dai inquired about, Luo Zizi remembered very clearly what happened when he went to Shuanglongfang to deliver food that day.
Luo Laizi has a slightly sloping foot and walks slower than ordinary people, so he was late for delivering the meal.
There are two people in the room, one is a young man who looks like a student, and the other is a fierce-looking person.
The young man who looked like a student had a sad face and said nothing.
The fierce-looking man scolded Luo Laizi.
So Luo Laizi had an impression of this matter.
A young man who looks like a student, this should be Zhu Yuan.
According to Cheng Qianfan's guess, the fierce-looking guy is most likely the spy guarding Zhu Yuan.
In this case, Zhu Yuan’s identity is clearly revealed:
Shameful traitor!
“Tell Ah-Dai not to ask Luo Laizi about this matter anymore and forget about it.” Cheng Qianfan ordered, “A-Dai must also withdraw as soon as possible.”
"Brother Fan, don't worry. Dumb is smarter than a monkey. What this kid says is completely covered up by this kid. There's no need for Dumb to ask. Luo Laizi says everything. Luo Laizi will definitely not doubt it." Li Hao explain.
Cheng Qianfan nodded and said nothing more. Li Hao handled things steadily, which reassured him.
He originally planned to talk to Li Hao about his departure from Shanghai in two days, but after thinking about it, he decided to talk to Li Hao before leaving.
He should not have predicted at this time that he would be sent to Hangzhou on business two days later.
Any seemingly small detail may lead to catastrophe, Cheng Qianfan always remembers it.
The two of them went back downstairs, and Li Hao left with a food box containing meals for Ah-Dai.
…
“When will my sister-in-law and my eldest nephew come over?” Kang Erniu took out the shriveled cigarette case in his pocket distressedly, “There are only these two, and I’m counting on the ones that will last until tomorrow.”
"Look at how stingy you are." The middle-aged man took out a crumpled cigarette, took off the lampshade, lit it on the flame, and inhaled happily, "I went to send a telegram. I will come to Shanghai next month."
As he spoke, he moved the cigarette case with only one cigarette left in it and hid it behind his butt. "Well, you went to the municipal committee meeting this time. What did your superiors say?"
"The information we reported last time is completely consistent with the information obtained by the municipal party committee." Kang Erniu said, "The young comrade arrested in Shuanglongfang, you have also read the newspaper, it is the reporter friend of your "Declaration" Comrade 'Zhu Yuan' mentioned."
“What about the other comrade who was carried away on a stretcher?” the middle-aged man asked.
"That is not our comrade, he is a patrolman, a counter-revolutionary patrolman who arrested our comrades. According to the patrol room, this person was the first to rush in and arrest him, and he was injured in the line of duty." Kang Erniu sighed, "I didn't expect that Comrade Zhu Yuan is actually an all-rounder who is capable of both literary and military skills, and he is worthy of being a comrade who fought against the Japanese invaders on the Northeast battlefield."
“Oh.” The middle-aged man was surprised. “Such comrades are very rare. We must rescue them.”
"Yes." Kang Erniu nodded, "The preliminary investigation results of the municipal party committee have also come out. Comrade Zhu Yuan should be Comrade Zhuang Ze who came to Shanghai from the northeast. He is a candidate member of our party and will be regularized next month. After investigation, Comrade Zhuang Ze has indeed participated in the Anti-League and is a very passionate and fighting young comrade."
…
"The Northeast Exile Student Party Branch of National Tongji University analyzed that Comrade Zhuang Ze's work and revolutionary enthusiasm were too high. He openly promoted abnormal anti-Japanese among the students of Tongji University, which attracted the attention of the secret agents, so he was secretly informed by the agents. arrest."
“Is there anything wrong with the exiled student party branch?”
"No, this group of exiled students' temporary party branch has just been established and they haven't had time to contact Comrade Zhuang Ze yet." Kang Erniu said, "I understand what you mean. Comrade Zhuang Ze has not established any contact with the local party organization in Shanghai. His arrest will not threaten or affect the organization..."
"I don't mean anything else. I also believe that young, energetic and passionate youths like Comrade Zhuang Ze are loyal to the revolution and loyal to the red." The middle-aged man waved his hands and said. Because of his excitement, he choked on the smell of cigarettes and coughed repeatedly. , "From the news in the "Declaration", Comrade Zhuang Ze used the pseudonym Zhu Yuan. This young comrade has a lot of struggle experience."
Kang Erniu nodded in approval.
Red Party Zhu Yuan and Red Party Zhuang Ze are two completely different concepts.
To put it most bluntly, Zhu Yuan, a red party member, shows that the enemy did not even know Zhuang Ze’s real name. The signal sent out is that Comrade Zhuang Ze withstood the enemy’s torture, kept the secret, and did not betray the revolution.
“What else did the organization say?” the middle-aged man asked.
"The organization inquired and learned that during the process of arresting Comrade Zhuang Ze, patrolman Cheng Qianfan beat Comrade Zhuang Ze many times." Kang Erniu said with an angry expression, "The organization judged that Cheng Qianfan should hate red and revolution... "
“You want to take action against him? Teach him a lesson?”
"We need to be careful." Kang Erniu sighed.
Last year's large-scale raids caused very heavy losses to the party organization.
The current policy of the organization is very clear, which is to stay hidden and preserve oneself, and not to act on impulse, let alone act rashly.
At this moment, a muffled sound suddenly came from the courtyard.
Although the sound was not loud, it was enough to arouse the vigilance of the two underground workers who were always vigilant.
…
Poof!
Kang Erniu blew out the oil lamp and picked up a wooden stick. The middle-aged man picked up a kitchen knife from the table and hid behind the door.
The middle-aged man suddenly opened the door, and Kang Erniu rushed out with a wooden stick.
Then a middle-aged man rushed out carrying a kitchen knife.
Both of them are ready to fight the enemy desperately.
However, in the dark courtyard, it was very quiet, and there was no encirclement as they thought.
The two men holding wooden sticks and kitchen knives stood back to back, not daring to be careless in the slightest.
After about a few minutes, it was still quiet.
Kang Erniu took out the flashlight from his pocket and pushed it, but it didn't light up.
He took a photo hard, and the flashlight had a weak light.
The two men bent over and explored the slippery green brick yard. The wooden sticks and kitchen knives also became tools to support them and prevent them from slipping.
found it.
There is something wrapped in kraft paper near the corner of the courtyard.
The two of them were shocked.
The middle-aged man picked up the things wrapped in brown paper and quickly returned to the house.
Kang Erniu took a flashlight and checked the door bolt again. Seeing that the door bolt was intact, he hurried back to the house.
…
Two people light oil lamps.
The middle-aged man carefully peeled off the brown paper layer by layer and saw an envelope inside.
The envelope reads: Personally addressed by Mr. Wang Jun.
The middle-aged man's expression changed, and he looked at each other with Kang Erniu. Both of them had solemn expressions.
Wang Jun is the pseudonym used by the middle-aged man now.
Pull out a page of letter paper from the envelope, Wang Jun just glanced at it for the first time, and his expression suddenly changed...
