Chapter 300 Fighting
Zhao Xuan leaned his head against the pillow, his face dark, and asked:
"So, Ms. Suzuki, what exactly are you trying to say?"

"I want you to cooperate with me to kill this fat man. Even if we can't kill him, we'll make him suffer!"

Zhao Xuan chuckled and didn't pay much attention to it.

Suzuki Haruko raised her hand and waved. Sasaki, who was standing at the door, closed the door, leaving only Suzuki Haruko and Zhao Xuan in the ward.

"Zhao Sang, you think that the two of us have no chance against the current original mechanism, let alone against Tu Feiyuan, right?"

"Since Miss Suzuki already knows, why bother saying more?"

Zhao Xuan has also become interested, because Suzuki Haruko's inner thoughts made his heart skip a beat.

The Japanese, still harboring their treacherous intentions, are actually planning to restart the Sheshan project!
"If I didn't have countermeasures, I wouldn't have come to you today, Zhao Sang. Think it over carefully, do you want to cooperate?"

Now that Zhao Xuan knows that Suzuki Haruko plans to exploit the two poison gas experts, he certainly can't get involved.

Knowing her plans, joining in would not be in Zhao Xuan's best interest, nor would it maximize his benefits.

Therefore, Zhao Xuan directly refused:

"Then you'd better not say anything, I'm not interested in this."

Haruko Suzuki was genuinely surprised that Zhao Xuan refused so decisively. Didn't Zhao Xuan have any curiosity?

But who is Suzuki Haruko? Even though Zhao Xuan refused, once she gets into a frenzy, she doesn't care about anything else.

“A week ago, three virus experts came from Harbin. The Sheshan project is about to be restarted, and the original organization is responsible for the safety of the experts and the Sheshan project.”

"I plan to kidnap these three experts, or even just one, or as many as possible, so that I can prevent Doisuka from completing the Sheshan project and instead take it over."

"But the Mei Agency hasn't been officially established yet, so I hope to cooperate with the Special Higher Police. When that happens, I'll give all the credit for the Sheshan project to the Special Higher Police. I just want Doi-man to swallow this loss!"

Zhao Xuan is feeling frustrated. He could have handled things secretly, but Suzuki Haruko revealed the whole thing.

If Zhao Xuan doesn't cooperate, then the plan is underway. If anything goes wrong, Suzuki Haruko will probably wonder if Zhao Xuan leaked the plan.
"Zhao Sang, this is my entire plan. Would you like to consider it?"

Zhao Xuan turned his head speechlessly to look at Suzuki Haruko sitting in the wheelchair:

Do I still have a chance to refuse?

Seeing Zhao Xuan's helpless expression, Suzuki Haruko covered her mouth and giggled.

"It seems that Zhao Sang has agreed."

Zhao Xuan chuckled and asked:
“You and I are both paralyzed, one of us is lying down and unable to move, and the other is in a wheelchair and can’t move for the time being. Even if we cooperate, I can only support you in spirit.”

Haruko Suzuki replied with a confident smile:
“Mr. Zhao, I’ve already asked Dr. Ma Tian, ​​and you should be able to be discharged in a month at most.”

"A month is just right. Starting the Sheshan project will require a large sum of money. I don't plan to pay for it, and I'm sure Zhao Sang's Special Higher Police Section won't either. So let's just wait for the original organization to arrange all the construction equipment for Sheshan, and then we can just start harvesting the fruits."

"However, I will gather all the intelligence within this month, and then I will welcome the Special Higher Police to join us."

After Suzuki Haruko left, Zhao Xuan's expression turned gloomy.

The Japanese really haven't given up their evil intentions; they actually dared to restart the Sheshan project.

Furthermore, based on Suzuki Haruko's inner thoughts, Zhao Xuan also confirmed that the three so-called experts sent by the epidemic prevention and water supply unit were indeed experts.

To be precise, there were two; the third appears to have been sent to Lao Viet to carry out a secret mission.

If these people had stayed in the north, it would have been difficult for Zhao Xuan to cause them trouble for a while, but they actually dared to come to Shanghai.

Thinking of the various crimes committed by the Ishii unit, a murderous glint flashed in Zhao Xuan's eyes.

Zhao Xuan now roughly knew what Dao Yan's new mission might be.

If Dao Yan were to investigate the exact information and whereabouts of those two experts, given the level of protection they received from the original organization, the chances of Dao Yan successfully completing this task would be very low.

But why did Dao Yan approach Lan Ze Huizi?
Given the intelligence capabilities of the Military Intelligence Bureau, it's impossible that they couldn't find out; it was the original agency that was in charge of this matter.

Aizawa Keiko and Tu Feiyuan don't have much interaction. Dao Yan can't possibly get the information he wants from her by getting close to her.

Surely Dao Yan couldn't have known beforehand that Suzuki Haruko would come to persuade the Ratgoko to join them, could she?

How could such a thing be possible?

Therefore, Zhao Xuan couldn't understand why Dao Yan was getting close to Lan Ze Huizi for the time being.

Shanghai, Military Police Headquarters, inside the commander's office.

After listening to Mizuki Uchiyama's report, Koji Ida smiled calmly.

"So, the eighteen people you rescued weren't underground party members at all, but rather people that Kagesa picked out from death row inmates."

"Is he doing this simply to speed up his entry into Shanghai?"

Mizuki Uchiyama nodded:

"Yes Commander!"

"Now that his plan has been exposed, he will definitely not dare to make such a move again in the short term. So, Commander, what we need to do now is to take advantage of this time to establish the position of our Military Police Command's Intelligence Department in the intelligence community of Shanghai."

“After the incident at the Cathay Hotel, the Special Higher Police has completely surpassed us and has become an independent department. Moreover, the cabinet’s funding for intelligence agencies has been biased towards the Special Higher Police, which is not a good thing.”

Koji Ida rubbed his temples and nodded slightly.

In the Hua Mao Hotel incident, almost all intelligence agencies were implicated, with only the original agency managing to gain a small share of the credit, while the majority went to the Special Higher Police.

After the matter was over, Koji Ida realized that this whole thing was actually a political struggle.

Within the cabinet, the cabinet members who sided with Kyoko Watanabe's proposed plan won, or rather, the radicals won, while the conservatives naturally had to pay the price.

They were simply victims of an undeserved misfortune.

But this is not a reason why Koji Ida could watch the Special Higher Police grow stronger day by day.

From the beginning, the Special Higher Police (THT) was one of the subordinate departments of the Military Police Headquarters. However, with the appointment of Kyoko Watanabe, the THT moved further and further towards independence.

It was upon seeing this change that Koji Ida established the Intelligence Department of the Military Police Headquarters.

Koji Ida established this department to better control the Special Higher Police (THP). However, the THP has not only developed better and better, but has also become independent.

Koji Ida has always held a grudge about this matter.

"Mizuki, tell me, what should we do next?"

After a moment's hesitation, Mizuki Uchiyama looked sharply at Koji Ida and said:

"Commander, our people at the military police hospital reported today that Suzuki Haruko met with Zhao Xuan alone. Because Sasaki was guarding outside, we don't know what they talked about in the ward."

"But according to my analysis, Haruko Suzuki is definitely eyeing the original organization, or more precisely, the Sheshan project."

Hiroshi Ida tapped the table with two fingers, making a rhythmic thumping sound.

It's clear that Koji Ida is seriously considering this matter.

"Commander, actually, regarding the Sheshan project, no matter who is responsible for protecting the safety of those two experts, in the end our military police headquarters will get a share of the credit, because the troops stationed in Sheshan will definitely be sent by us."

Koji Ida nodded; that was exactly what he was thinking about.

Since the Military Police Headquarters would inevitably take credit anyway, Koji Ida didn't feel the need to participate in the early stages of the competition.

Seemingly sensing Koji Ida's thoughts, Mizuki Uchiyama solemnly said:

"Commander, we don't want to get involved in their struggle for control of the Sheshan project. Rather, you think that if the Special Higher Police really gains control of the Sheshan project, will we still have any way to restrain them?"

Koji Ida suddenly realized, "That's right, the Special Higher Police are currently unstoppable. If they were to gain control of the Sheshan project, the Special Higher Police would be swaggering."

However, Koji Ida had another consideration:

"Mizuki, actually I don't think the Special Higher Police can gain the upper hand."

Mizuki Uchiyama shook her head:

“Commander, it’s impossible for Kagesa to be stationed in Shanghai anytime soon. Kagesa has a good relationship with the north. He was one of the people in charge of the South Manchuria Railway before. No one knows the intelligence about the north better than him.”

“Since Suzuki Haruko has approached Zhao Xuan, if she really is cooperating with the Special Higher Police, then it will be too easy for them to get accurate information about those two experts.” “Commander, you haven’t forgotten how Suzuki Haruko was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment, have you? Knowing Suzuki Haruko as I do, this woman is vindictive. If she has the chance to make the former agency suffer a setback, she won’t let it go.”

"With Yingzuo temporarily unable to set up in Shanghai, the original agency has lost control of the Sheshan project. Who do you think will ultimately have it?"

Koji Ida gasped. Oh right, how could he have forgotten about that?

The control of the Sheshan project can be in the hands of any force, but it cannot be in the hands of the Special Higher Police.

Koji Ida had already made up his mind:

"So, Mizuki, if this matter is entrusted to you, can you guarantee that the Special Higher Police won't take control of the Sheshan project?"

Mizuki Uchiyama nodded confidently:
"Commander, rest assured, even if the Sheshan project is not in our hands, it will definitely not fall into the hands of the Special Higher Police."

"Next, my father will go to see Doi-man. It's time to cooperate with the original organization."

In a secret room behind the Guanghua Bookstore on Hankou Road in Shanghai.

Miao Xue has already passed on the intelligence.

Upon learning that it was all a staged performance by Ding Moqun, Sun Jianzhong snorted coldly:
"That Ding Moqun always likes to resort to these underhanded tactics!"

Wang Shuyu sighed softly and said:
"If it weren't for Comrade Lidong, Ding Moqun's plan would have really succeeded. Not only would it have allowed Yingzuo to enter Shanghai ahead of schedule, but it would have also dealt a serious blow to our comrades who were infiltrating."

“Even our liaison station could be exposed.”

Sun Jianzhong was also filled with lingering fear after hearing this.

Fortunately, Lidong noticed something was wrong, otherwise the losses would have been severe.

"Hey, Shuyu, tell me, has that guy from Nanjing actually come to Shanghai? It's been so long, and we haven't heard a thing."

After thinking for a moment, Wang Shuyu said:
“He must have come, because if he doesn’t come to Shanghai, he can’t do anything in Nanjing. Only by coming to Shanghai and contacting the organization can the list in his hands be effective.”

To put it bluntly, if they cannot contact the organization, then these nineteen people will become unregistered.

They were all handpicked by Fang Lie, but Fang Lie was arrested before he could submit the list to the organization.

They were all strangers to each other while hiding in Nanjing. Apart from reading the newspapers every day to see if the organization had called them back, they were just waiting for Fang Lie to summon them.

With Fang Lie dead, they became lost souls. Fang Lie's subordinates only possessed this list, but that was contingent on the organization waking them up; otherwise, it was all just empty talk.

Therefore, Fang Lie's subordinates tried every means to contact the organization.

In that case, he will definitely come to Shanghai!

"Uncle Sun, don't worry. No one has found any trace of this comrade yet, which shows that he is cautious. As long as he is in Shanghai, he will definitely find a way to contact us. There's no use in us being anxious now."

"The network that Ding Moqun laid out before was too powerful. Presumably, that comrade is still gathering intelligence and distinguishing between truth and falsehood."

Sun Jianzhong breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this; as long as that comrade was still thinking of contacting them, that was fine.

Wang Shuyu, however, comforted Sun Jianzhong.

That comrade is definitely in Shanghai, but how to contact him here is a problem. After putting herself in that comrade's shoes, Wang Shuyu racked her brains but couldn't come up with a solution.

too difficult!
Especially with their contact information in the hands of No. 76, contacting them too easily could easily lead them into Ding Moqun's trap.

That would not only harm himself, but also put his comrades who were lurking in Shanghai in great danger.

Moreover, the organization has now adjusted the focus of work for its undercover personnel in various regions.

In Shanghai, both supply routes have been cut off, which is a major headache for the organization. So, the task assigned to the Shanghai station by the organization is to rebuild supply collection channels as soon as possible.

Sun Jianzhong took two documents out of the drawer:

"This is a document sent by Chitu. The organization requires us to open up new channels to raise supplies as soon as possible."

After taking it, Wang Shuyu examined it carefully, and the more she looked, the deeper her brows furrowed.

A dozen minutes later, Wang Shuyu put down the documents in her hand and looked at Sun Jianzhong with a puzzled expression:

"Uncle Sun, was this document issued by the organization?"

Sun Jianzhong nodded helplessly:
"The organization does have this idea, but this document was signed and issued by the newly appointed director who is responsible for liaising with intelligence in Shanghai."

The newly appointed director?

Wang Shuyu's lips twitched slightly:
"Could it be Shi Yi Nong?"

Sun Jianzhong's smile was rather forced. Who else could it be but Shi Yi Nong?

Shi Yinong was withdrawn from Shanghai. After arriving at the base, he volunteered himself and successfully secured the position due to his extensive knowledge of the situation in Shanghai.

Sun Jianzhong never expected that Shi Yinong, who had slunk away from Shanghai, would now become his direct superior.

The communication route between the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Jon Snow's side has been cut off, which is indeed detrimental to the development of the base.

However, Wang Shuyu felt that the instructions issued in this document were too radical.

If we operate exactly as the document says, the Shanghai liaison station might not be completely wiped out, but it will certainly suffer a large loss.

Seeing Sun Jianzhong nod, Wang Shuyu was also very troubled.

"The housekeeper is always causing trouble, no matter where he is."

"Uncle Sun, we can't agree to this. Opening up new channels is fine, but we have to do it step by step. Nobody can get fat in one bite."

“Uncle Sun, you continue to stall with Shi Yinong. Let’s delay this matter as long as possible and carry out our own plan. If the plan goes smoothly, we should be able to open up a new channel within six months.”

Sun Jianzhong nodded; that was all he could do for now.

Shi Yinong's idea was good, but it was too radical and simply not feasible in reality.

He actually wanted Comrade He Shen, who was lurking in the police station, to use his position to establish a new channel for procuring supplies within a week.

Putting aside whether He Shen's position is even capable of doing this, it's simply impossible to do it within a week.

Shi Yinong was a newly appointed official, eager to establish himself and prove himself.

Wang Shuyu knew Shi Yinong's personality all too well.

In the days that followed, Shanghai seemed to return to calm.

New Year's Eve was Zhao Xuan's first New Year in this world, but he spent it in a military police hospital.

Fortunately, Dao Yan cooked a meal, and Dao Ya and Ding Moqun also went to the hospital to spend the New Year with Zhao Xuan.

After the Spring Festival, Yi Xincheng, who had studied with Yingzuo in Nanjing for a period of time, returned to Shanghai.

It can be said that Yi Xincheng was sent by Yingzuo to scout ahead.

Upon rejoining the 76th Division, Yi Xincheng was directly appointed as the deputy head of the intelligence section.

This made Yuan Fang, who had been following Miao Xue, very indignant.

With Yi Xincheng's arrival, No. 76 decided to recruit a new batch of intelligence officers, to be personally led by Yi Xincheng.

February 22, 1940, Lantern Festival.

Inside the office of the deputy head of the intelligence department at 76 Jessfield Road, the line of job applicants stretched out into the corridor outside the intelligence room.

"Next up, Chen Yuliang!"

As Yi Xincheng's secretary finished speaking, a young man, about 1.75 meters tall, wearing a gray suit, a checkered tie, with his hair neatly combed and gold-rimmed glasses, walked in.

Inside the office, Chen Yuliang appeared somewhat reserved, but his demeanor remained unaffected. After bowing slightly to Yi Xincheng and the others, Chen Yuliang spoke calmly and slowly:

"Sirs, my name is Chen Yuliang. I am a graduate of Oxford University and just returned to China this year. I have not been able to find a suitable opportunity. I hope you can give me a chance to take up a position."

Yi Xincheng flipped through Chen Yuliang's file, and when he saw that Chen Yuliang was studying social psychology, a slight smile appeared on Yi Xincheng's lips:
"Oxford University, such a high level of education, I don't understand why you chose to come here to look for a job? You should know what kind of work you would be facing if we decided to hire you?"
