Chapter 302 Homework
After making the decision, Boss Dai dismissed the four men and then returned to the Dai Mansion in Shenxiandong.

As soon as Chen Chuyin returned, he came straight here. After returning home, Boss Dai looked at Chen Chuyin sitting in the living room reading the newspaper and said:

"Old Chen, you can't be so headstrong next time. Your sudden return has put everyone in a very passive position!"

“I’ve taken care of this matter for you. The principal has also approved your application. Fu Zhengguo will serve as the station manager of the Shanghai station, and Mao Sanlin will be sent to be Fu Zhengguo’s deputy.”

Director Chen put down the newspaper, his sharp edges seemingly smoothed out, and said with a chuckle:

"Thank you so much, Director. Mao Sanlin is good, very capable. I feel relieved to have him assisting Lao Fu."

"I wonder what the Director will assign me to do next?"

Boss Dai sat down on the sofa, smiled at Chen Chuyin, and said:
"The principal is taking care of your hard work over the years, so he plans to transfer you to the General Staff Office. Old Chen, do a good job there. The General Staff Office is the principal's direct department. I think you're going to soar to great heights this time."

Chen Chuyin smiled and agreed, but he knew that although the Attendant's Room was a good place, if he really went there, he would be completely sidelined.

Of course, this was the best outcome Chen Chuyin had envisioned on his way back to the mountain city.

Inside the Military Police Hospital in Shanghai.

Keiko Aizawa has agreed to collaborate with Haruko Suzuki.

However, she still had some questions, so she rushed to the Military Police Hospital before Dao Yan arrived, even before she got off work.

In the intensive care unit, Lan Zehui peeled an apple, cut it into pieces, placed it on a plate in front of the bedside table, and stuck toothpicks in it. After watching Zhao Xuan eat a few pieces, Lan Zehui smiled and said:

"Ah Xuan, I have already apologized to my mother."

Zhao Xuan laughed upon hearing this:

"That's good. What you did before was indeed a bit impulsive."

Lan Zehui nodded slightly, gazing at Zhao Xuan with affection in her eyes:

"But I'm still not reconciled. The Kuomintang agents must pay the price!"

"Sigh, let's not talk about that. Ah Xuan, I came here today to ask you about your collaboration with Suzuki Haruko. I have a feeling that something is not right."

"The original organization is rebuilding the Sheshan Research Institute, and it is heavily guarded by two companies of military police. Under these circumstances, I don't know how Suzuki Haruko's plan can be completed?"

"Most importantly, my mother seems to disapprove of our involvement in this project."

If Zhao Xuan hadn't promised Suzuki Haruko, Aizawa Keiko would never have met Suzuki Haruko, let alone agreed to such a crazy plan.

The Sheshan project is indeed a huge pie, but this pie is poisonous; if you're not careful, it will backfire.

The previous Huamao Hotel incident made Aizawa Keiko see many things clearly.

The greater the achievement of a task, the more likely it is that if something goes wrong, the blame will fall on that person and kill them.

After Zhao Xuan stuck the toothpick back into a piece of apple on the plate, he looked at Lan Zehuizi with a serious expression and said:

“Huizi, we agreed to cooperate, but that doesn’t mean we have to follow her plan.”

"Just before you arrived, Miao Xue sent someone with a message: Suzuki Haruko not only contacted us, but also Wang Ningyu, and Miao Xue herself got involved."

Upon hearing this, Aizawa Keiko frowned:

"If it were a simple kidnapping, why would Haruko Suzuki bring so many people in?"

"By the way, I've already found out who those three people are."

As she spoke, Aizawa Keiko took out a stack of documents from her briefcase and showed them to Zhao Xuan one by one.

Actually, Zhao Xuan wasn't idle during this time either.

The nanobugs had long since eliminated every blind spot in the original agency's surveillance.

Zhao Xuan knew the identities of Saburo Arazawa and the other two "experts" better than Haruko Suzuki and Keiko Aizawa, and he also understood their lifestyles better.

After reviewing the information gathered by Aizawa Keiko, Zhao Xuan compared it with what he had discovered and found little discrepancy.

“Takahashi Masahiko has already been sent away. The only ones still living in the original organization are Kasahara Heihei and Karasawa Saburo.”

"Both of them are dangerous individuals. I contacted my senior from the north, and he told me that these two are extremely radical. Otherwise, Commander Ishii wouldn't have sent out these two outstanding guys."

"My mother also solemnly instructed me not to have any contact with these two people unless absolutely necessary."

During this period of investigation by the nano-flying insects, Zhao Xuan also realized that Kasahara Heihei and Karasawa Saburo did indeed have mental problems.

Damn it, who would carry a virus test tube around with them? If it leaks, the entire organization could be thrown into chaos.

Of course, the original mechanism is the first to be affected, so what's next?

Shanghai is finished!

Therefore, kidnapping these two people would be extremely dangerous.

Neither Haruko Suzuki nor Keiko Aizawa found this information, and even Hiroko Tobi was unaware of it.

Otherwise, would that old bastard Tu Feiyuan dare to let the two of them live in the original office? Does he want to die even faster?
Moreover, over this period of time, Zhao Xuan also confirmed that Dao Yan's new mission was to investigate the intelligence of those two experts and provide accurate information to the Hurricane Team so that the Hurricane Team could eliminate them.

When Zhao Xuan discovered Dao Yan's inner thoughts, he broke out in a cold sweat.

Fortunately, Dao Yan didn't have any special way to investigate this information; otherwise, if the Hurricane Team had made a move, and had been even slightly unlucky, it would have been all over!

So Zhao Xuan thought it over and over again before finally making a decision.

Not only should we not kidnap them, but we should also treat them like ancestors and send them safely to the Sheshan Research Institute.

You like to carry viruses with you, right? Now that you're at the Sheshan Research Institute, you can leak them however you want.

Once they got there, the only ones who suffered were the Japanese.

Two squadrons of military police, haha, that's enough for a dish.

"Huizi, when will the reconstruction project of the Sheshan Research Institute be completed?"

Aizawa Keiko retrieved a document from the bottom layer:
"According to the data from the technical department, the project is expected to be completed by mid-March and put into use around early April."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Xuan immediately asked Edith to retrieve a set of historical data.

The Wang Jingwei regime was supposed to be officially established by the end of March, which means that Suzuki Haruko actually wanted to take over the Sheshan project from Kagesa!

"There's still more than a month left, that's too long."

Upon hearing this, a glint of light flashed in Aizawa Keiko's beautiful eyes:
"Ah Xuan, do you mean that Suzuki Haruko has other ideas?"

Seeing Zhao Xuan nod, Lan Zehui clenched her fist after putting the document back:

"Yes, more than a month is too long. She probably wants to get the Sheshan project into Yingzuo's hands."

"I understand, Ah Xuan. I will investigate as soon as possible to find out when the Wang Jingwei government in Nanjing was officially established. If it is really within this timeframe, hmph, Suzuki Haruko, I will make her pay the price!"

Seeing that Zhao Xuan agreed with her point of view, Lan Zehui smiled happily:
"Judging by the time, Dao Yan will be here soon. Ah Xuan, I'll be going now. Dao Yan and I have gotten along well these past few days, and I don't want to ruin our relationship by secretly coming to see you."

After saying that, Aizawa Keiko got up with a sly smile, and before leaving, she didn't forget to take the plate from the bedside table with her.

Not long after Aizawa Keiko left, Dao Yan and Dao Ya arrived.

Although Dao Yan was a very good cook and made different kinds of soup for Zhao Xuan, after drinking it for so long, three times a day, Zhao Xuan now felt a chill whenever he saw soup.

"I made pork rib and lotus root soup today, it's still warm, Ah Xuan, let me feed you while it's hot."

Zhao Xuan forced a smile, choosing to silently endure the choice between loving and being loved.

Dao Ya simply moved a table and sat down to the side. Zhao Xuan drank soup while she ate meat, occasionally smacking her lips, which made Zhao Xuan want to grab Dao Ya by the back of the neck and throw her out.

After helping Zhao Xuan finish dinner, Dao Yan and Dao Ya left.

On the drive back to the Special Higher Police Department's apartment complex, Dao Yan glanced at Dao Ya sitting in the passenger seat:
"Has the young tiger still refused to see me?"

Dao Ya felt bitter. Her brother-in-law was lying in a hospital bed. Did she expect them to meet at the military police hospital?
"Sister, Young Tiger has gone on a mission and is not in Shanghai for the time being."

Dao Yan frowned slightly, then smiled and asked:
"Xiaoya, if I told you, I feel like your brother-in-law is a tiger cub."

Before Dao Yan could finish speaking, Dao Ya laughed:

"Sis, are you kidding me?"

Dao Yan was somewhat disappointed, unable to tell whether Dao Ya's reaction was normal or a change of topic.

"I'm not joking with you. If Ah Xuan is a cub, then it explains why you're a tiger girl. Otherwise, how did you end up being recruited into the Kuomintang's intelligence agency while you were still in school? And how did you meet the cub and become a tiger girl?"

Dao Ya chuckled, looking at Dao Yan speechlessly:
"Sis, I've discovered you have quite a vivid imagination."

"If my brother-in-law were a tiger cub, would he blow himself up?"

Dao Yan was stunned for a moment; this was the reason she had been unable to understand.

It's a miracle that Zhao Xuan survived the bomb detonation in the confined space.

Moreover, a couple of days ago, Dao Yan went to Lan Ze Huizi's villa, and the two talked a lot that night.

One of the experimental reports was shown to Dao Yan that very night by Lan Ze Huizi.

After all, it concerns the death of a prince, so the Japanese will definitely investigate it thoroughly.

That report was given to her by Watanabe Kyoko after Aizawa Keiko went to apologize to her.

Although Lan Zehuizi had never doubted Zhao Xuan, after seeing the report, she trusted him even more, but was also filled with lingering fear.

In her experimental report, Kyoko Watanabe sent people to conduct six sets of comparative experiments.

In the last group, even when the explosive charge was reduced to its minimum, just enough to blast through the elevator, and everyone in the elevator knew there was an explosive charge, the result was still the same as the previous experiments: none of them survived.

Therefore, it is a miracle that Zhao Xuan was able to survive and even save Lan Zehuizi. It is an unrepeatable miracle.

Dao Yan shook her head. Was she being too suspicious? Even though it was already confirmed, she still doubted that Zhao Xuan was Youhu. Sitting in the passenger seat, Dao Ya didn't dare breathe, cautiously glancing at Dao Yan. Only after confirming that her sister was no longer thinking about it did Dao Ya breathe a sigh of relief.

The following day, a large-scale search operation was launched by the Special Higher Police in conjunction with the 76th Telecommunications Division. The radio trucks were running at full capacity, and no one knew how many days Aizawa Keiko would have to carry out such an operation.

Haruko Suzuki, who had already been discharged from the hospital and returned to the backyard of the police station, was somewhat stunned when she heard the news.

The Special Higher Police had already agreed to cooperate, so why is Aizawa Keiko making such a big fuss now? What exactly is she trying to do?
Sasaki is currently reporting on the progress of his investigation over the past few days:

"Section Chief, we have investigated Saburo Kagasawa and Hei Kasahara's daily activities. It will be very difficult to kidnap them."

"These two are also very careful. Since they entered the original agency, they have never left. Even when they are bored, Tu Feiyuan will directly transfer a group of people from Xinchunju to entertain them."

“Apart from that, we have no way to contact Saburo Kagasawa and Hei Kasahara.”

Suzuki Haruko sat with her arms crossed, listening quietly to Sasaki's report. She pondered the Special Higher Police's large-scale operation and wondered how to kidnap either Karasawa Saburo or Kasahara Hei.

Once the Sheshan Research Institute is completed and put into use, kidnapping the two people will serve no purpose.

"Sasaki, do you think the Special Higher Police are really planning to fight the Military Intelligence Bureau to the death by making such a big show of this?"

Sasaki is also quite confused right now:

"Section Chief, in my opinion, Lan Zehui has always been an emotional person. The Military Intelligence Bureau gave her such a big surprise last time. If she doesn't retaliate, it's not in Lan Zehui's character."

Haruko Suzuki nodded slightly, "That's true."

However, just as the operation was about to begin, Aizawa Keiko, who had promised to cooperate with her, went off to do something else, which made Suzuki Haruko quite upset.

“Alright, Sasaki, go see Aizawa Keiko and ask when she’s available. We’ll go to the Military Police Hospital together and discuss the details of the operation with Zhao-san.”

"Hey! Section Chief, I'm coming right now."

No. 15, Lane 3, Sixth Lane, South of Shanghai.

Dao Ya originally came here today to visit the four teachers, but she didn't expect to see Song Rong, who had been away from Shanghai for several days, as soon as she entered the courtyard.

"Teacher, you're back?"

Song Rong looked somewhat tired; she had arrived in Shanghai late last night.

Upon seeing Dao Ya, Song Rong didn't try to hide it from Liu Manping and the others, and said directly:
"I'm sorry, Xiaoya, the mission that Youhu gave me failed. Chen Chuyin never left Shancheng, or rather, Chen Chuyin returned to Shancheng."

In Hong Kong, Song Rong silently and quietly eliminated two Kuomintang (KMT) groups that were planning to intercept Chen Chuyin.

After waiting in Hong Kong for many days, Chen Chuyin still hadn't arrived. Only after intercepting a telegram did Song Rong realize that Chen Chuyin had returned to Chongqing.

Left with no other choice, Song Rong had to return to Shanghai first.

Dao Ya nodded slightly:
"Teacher, don't worry about this. The new transfer order for the Shanghai station has been issued, and Fu Zhengguo has become the new stationmaster. In a way, we have achieved our goal."

Song Rong also knew that it didn't matter whether it was Chen Chuyin or Fu Zhengguo who became the stationmaster.

Zhao Xuan's main concern was that he didn't want the position of station chief to be given to someone else.

"In that case, timing is everything, so let's begin today's lesson!"

Dao Ya's lips twitched. If she had known Song Rong was back, she wouldn't have come so early. Just thinking about a whole day of grueling training terrified Dao Ya.

"You're already very proficient in foreign languages. Everyone says that my best subject is psychology, but that's not actually the case."

Dao Ya listened attentively. After the last class, Dao Ya also felt that Song Rong's forte was psychology.

But now, Song Rong is saying no.

"Teacher, what is that?"

"Trace analysis!"

"Trace analysis?"

"That's right, what I'm going to teach you today is trace analysis."

As Song Rong spoke, Dao Ya took notes.

If it were anyone else who only listened without taking notes, Song Rong would have slapped them across the face long ago.

But during the last lesson, Song Rong already knew just how talented Dao Ya was.

They have an unparalleled memory, an unforgettable hearing, and can even mimic the voice of others so realistically that it's hard to tell the difference.

Song Rong was somewhat envious of such talent at the time.

Therefore, this time, Song Rong plans to teach Dao Ya all his best skills, making Dao Ya his personal disciple and his last disciple.

As for whether Dao Ya would take the surname Chiang or the Communist after completing her studies, Song Rong didn't care at all.

After the last lesson, Song Rong discovered that Dao Ya deeply disagreed with the Military Intelligence Bureau; no, it should be said that Dao Ya disagreed with the Kuomintang.

In just a few words, Song Rong had already seen through Dao Ya, so why did she still teach her all her skills?
It was very simple, and Song Rong found it interesting.

If they really end up on opposing sides, Song Rong really wants to see what it's like to fight against herself.
Just thinking about it made Song Rong feel her blood boil.

Of course, if Dao Ya ultimately chooses the Military Intelligence Bureau, Song Rong won't mind. It'll just mean less fun, but considering it's the money she paid to save the young tiger, she won't lose out.

After a day of studying, Dao Ya felt her head was buzzing.

This was the first time Daoya had ever felt her head was spinning from studying.

However, Dao Ya truly admired what Song Rong taught her, and even wanted to put it into practice as soon as possible to see how well she had learned.

In the courtyard, Liu Manping, Chen Manli, and He Wanjun were eating at a table, glancing occasionally at the lit room.

"Big sister, what do you think the conductor and Xiaoya are talking about? It's been half an hour."

Liu Manping shook her head:
"The conductor's teaching ability is indeed very strong. Xiaoya's current strength has far surpassed ours."

Hearing this, Chen Manli felt extremely frustrated. Xiaoya was their student before, but in less than half a year, Xiaoya not only graduated, but now with Song Rong's guidance, Xiaoya's skills have improved by leaps and bounds.

He Wanjun said with some concern:

"Big sister, isn't the conductor's teaching too radical? The case the conductor analyzed for Xiaoya today still gives me the creeps."

Liu Manping fell silent. The conductor had her own unique set of rules, but today's case really made Liu Manping feel uneasy.

"If the team leader knew that the conductor was teaching Xiaoya this way, he would probably explode if he knew that the team was going to use any means necessary to complete the mission."

Liu Manping smiled slightly and looked at Chen Manli, who was constantly complaining:
"Alright, Xiaoya has been learning from us for so long, don't you know what kind of person she is? The conductor can't influence her."

"hope"

Inside the room, Song Rong looked at Dao Ya sitting across the table and said with a teasing smile:
"The most direct way to test the results of learning is through practical application."

After speaking, Song Rong spread out a map on the table:
"This is the Shiliupu Wharf. When I was in Hong Kong, I accidentally learned that a cargo ship carrying raw materials for making poison gas bombs would dock here at 6 pm the day after tomorrow."

"Your mission is simple: blow up this cargo ship, no matter what method you use."

Dao Ya's lips twitched slightly after hearing this. Was this task really that simple?

Seeing Dao Ya's expression, Song Rong continued:
"You are Tiger Girl, and that identity is the best key."

"Use Tiger Girl's identity to stuff Kuomintang agents inside, let them serve as cannon fodder to attract the Japanese's attention, and support your plan to blow up the cargo ship."

"I've already given you the plan. How you want to do it is not my business. If you can't complete this task, there's no need for the rest of the teaching."

Dao Ya looked at Song Rong with a wry smile:

"Teacher, isn't this a bad thing? We're all colleagues, using our own people as cannon fodder... this..."

Song Rong shook her head:

"Sometimes, you need to think about problems in a different way."

"If the cargo ship hadn't been destroyed, and once the poison gas bombs were manufactured and put into use, you should understand how many people would have died without me having to tell you."

"Right now, we're only sacrificing a small number of people to ensure the survival of the majority. Don't you understand which is more important?"

"Moreover, as long as you blow up the cargo ship, their sacrifice will be worthwhile, and they will die a worthy death!"

That makes so much sense!
Dao Ya stared at Song Rong with bright eyes. Although she felt something was off, it seemed to be true.

"What if I fail to blow up the cargo ship?"

This question stumped Song Rong, because she had never considered it before.

"If it didn't succeed, it means we didn't have enough intelligence. There's no need to worry about their deaths. After all, I didn't order them to blow up the cargo ship. Insufficient intelligence is the problem of the Shanghai station chief. Who can we blame for their deaths?"

Okay, Daoya finally realized that something was wrong.

Song Rong never had the concept of mission failure. Even if she failed, it wasn't her fault; it was her teammates who weren't good enough!
It was past 5:30 when Dao Ya returned from the south of the city. She sat in the rickshaw the whole way, thinking about whether or not she should go and carry out the mission to blow up the cargo ship.
No, I need to talk to my brother-in-law. Song Rong is too crazy; she's getting a little scared.

Hongkou District, Military Police Hospital, inside the intensive care unit.

As soon as Dao Ya pushed open the door, she saw Dao Yan sitting in a chair, staring at the door with a gloomy expression.

Zhao Xuan, lying on the hospital bed, gave Dao Ya a wink as she entered through the door.

"Brother-in-law, sister, we're a bit late today because we've been busy."

Dao Yan gave a light snort and pointed to the lunchbox on the small table:

"If you had come five minutes later, you wouldn't be eating tonight!"

Daoya grinned and sat down at the small table to start eating.

Do you remember what you promised yesterday?
