You were allowed to marry into No. 76 family, and you were promoted to director?

Chapter 334 Rebellion
"But precisely because the people from Shanghai Station are all lurking in the French Concession, given the current relationship between the Japanese and the French Concession, do you think Smith would agree to let the Japanese enter the French Concession to arrest people?"

"Even if Smith agreed, Mao Sanlin was leading a team on an assassination mission, which was all planned out in time. The people at the Shanghai station can't be idiots, can they? They didn't know to move when Mao Sanlin hadn't returned for so long?"

"Furthermore, the Hurricane Team withdrew safely that day. After the Hurricane Team returned, wouldn't they have informed the Shanghai station chief of the mission's failure and Mao Sanlin's arrest?"

"As for getting information about the mountain city and the members of the Shanghai station from Mao Sanlin, that's even more impossible. Uncle Sun, you should know the methods of the Military Intelligence Bureau better than I do."

Sun Jianzhong fell silent. According to Wang Shuyu, Mao Sanlin was of little value to the Japanese except for being interrogated and thrown into Tilanqiao Prison.

Moreover, the Japanese exchanged Mao Sanlin for a million silver dollars, which made Sun Jianzhong envious.

Thinking about it this way, the Japanese approach doesn't seem wrong.

Seeing Sun Jianzhong's expression, Wang Shuyu smiled and changed the subject:
"Alright, Uncle Sun, let's not talk about this anymore."

"How's the intelligence Comrade Migratory Bird gave us coming along?"

Sun Jianzhong, regaining his senses, finally smiled:
"Haha, the organization has confirmed it, and has already contacted the eighteen comrades who were keeping silent in Nanjing. I believe the intelligence network in Nanjing will be restored soon."

Wang Shuyu nodded slightly upon hearing this:

"That's good. It's worth it for Comrade Migratory Bird to go through so many twists and turns to find an opportunity to contact the organization."

"By the way, Uncle Sun, have you decided who to send to carry out the instructions issued by the organization last night?"

Sun Jianzhong's face darkened, and he said indignantly:
"These little devils, they really haven't given up their evil intentions."

"We have completely obtained information about Hu Taoze, but it seems that he will disembark in the French Concession and then check into the Cathay Hotel. I don't understand why these Japanese devils from the small island like to stay at the Cathay Hotel so much?"

Wang Shuyu raised her slender eyebrows slightly and guessed:
"Uncle Sun, so you mean our comrade is right next to this Hu Taoze?"

Sun Jianzhong did not hide anything from Wang Shuyu. Now Wang Shuyu has become Sun Jianzhong's strategist, responsible for the organization and analysis of intelligence. The organization has also recognized Wang Shuyu's work ability.

Therefore, it was appropriate to inform Wang Shuyu of this information.

“That’s right, our comrade came back from Japan with Hu Taoze, and he also brought back a top-secret intelligence report. So, we need to arrange for our comrade to go to the Hua Mao Hotel again.”

Sun Jianzhong was also helpless about this. If he could, he really wouldn't want his comrades to go to the Huamao Hotel again. It was a very strange place!

The comrade Sun Jianzhong mentioned was Xin, codenamed Flying Bird.

Comrade Feiniao joined the underground party in Tianjin and subsequently remained undercover in the Zhenxingqi Society.

Now 52 years old, Na Xin has become a core member of the Zhenxing Banner Society, second only to the society's president, Lü Tianting.

Six years ago, Na Xin was sent by Lü Tianting to assist a member of the Flag Society, codenamed "Theatrical Master," who had returned from Japan, in completing a secret mission.

The newly brought-back top-secret intelligence was related to this secret mission.

After listening to Sun Jianzhong's words, Wang Shuyu thought for a while and then asked:

"Comrade Asuka has a good relationship with this Kurumizawa Masashi?"

Sun Jianzhong shook his head:
"I don't know the details of this matter either, but I can confirm that Comrade Asuka returned on the same ferry as Kurumizawa."

"The information that the ferry would dock at the French Concession pier was also passed on by Comrade Asuka at great risk."

"Shuyu, if we go to the French Concession this time, it won't be just one mission, it will be two."

"First, we must retrieve the intelligence from Comrade Asuka. Second, no matter what, we must destroy the virus samples brought by Kurumizawa."

Wang Shuyu felt a bit dizzy. Executing just one mission was already extremely difficult, let alone two missions at the same time. The organization really trusts us!
"Uncle Sun, will Comrade Chenguang be involved this time?"

Wang Shuyu looked at Sun Jianzhong with hopeful eyes. If Comrade Chenguang were involved, Wang Shuyu would be very confident that she could complete these two tasks.

However, Sun Jianzhong shook his head with a wry smile:

"Shuyu, right now in the entire Shanghai, only Comrade Future can contact Chenguang."

In the future, this will be Lin Jieru's code name.

"Could Lin Jieru ask around? If Comrade Chenguang is involved, the risk of us completing this mission will be greatly reduced."

Sun Jianzhong sighed:
"I'm afraid that won't work. Ever since we broke the rules and sent Future to help Jon, Comrade Future has moved out of the Oriental Inn. Now, only she can show up on her own; otherwise, we can't find any trace of her."

The smile on Wang Shuyu's face gradually disappeared, and a look of disappointment flashed in her eyes.

She now really wishes she could take his place. She quite likes this code name for the future; she heard that it was Chen Guang who personally gave Lin Jie Ru the code name.

She was the one who encountered the morning light first; it's all her fault for having such bad legs. If only she could have walked normally back then.

"Shuyu, what are you thinking about?"

Coming to her senses, Wang Shuyu smiled slightly.

"Uncle Sun, let's discuss this carefully and decide who should be assigned this mission."

Shanghai, Wusong Road, Special Higher Education Apartment District.

Dao Yan returned home first, made a phone call to the Special Higher Police advisor's office, and then sat quietly in the living room waiting.

A dozen minutes later, Zhao Xuan didn't return, but Dao Ya did.

Seeing Dao Yan here, Dao Ya was still a little confused:

"Sister, why did you come so early today?"

Dao Yan chuckled:
"You're back so early too. You always come back late at night, all travel-worn."

Dao Ya chuckled, hung her trench coat on the coat rack by the door, then rushed to the sofa, pounced on it, and popped a grape into her mouth.

"Don't you act like a girl at all? Sit up and sit properly."

Dao Ya pursed her lips, secretly cursing Dao Yan in her heart, but her body still honestly sat up straight.

Dao Yan shook his head, wondering if his younger sister would ever be able to get married.
Click~
Hearing the door open again, Dao Yan and Dao Ya both turned their heads to look.

When Zhao Xuan entered the room and saw the clothes on the coat rack, he knew that not only Dao Yan, but Dao Ya had also returned.

Walking into the living room, sure enough, the two sisters were sitting on the sofa, looking in their direction.

"Xiaoya's back too, Ayan. What's the matter that you called me back in such a hurry?"

Dao Yan glanced at Dao Ya out of the corner of her eye and said:
"My uncle invited us home for dinner tonight, but I suspect his target isn't the two of us, but Xiaoya."

Dao Ya raised her eyebrows slightly, looking at Dao Yan with considerable curiosity:
"Sister, why do you say that?"

At this moment, Zhao Xuan also came to the sofa and sat down next to Dao Yan.

"It all started with the information you got from Smith last night."

After listening to Dao Yan's account, Dao Ya frowned. Her reputation in the French Concession was indeed very high, and this matter could not be kept secret at all.

If that's the case, Ding Moqun's target tonight might really be Dao Ya.

"It's okay. I'll just shift the blame to Xiao Ai. My reputation is all thanks to Xiao Ai. I wouldn't dare accept the title of the biggest supplier in Shanghai's underground black market."

Dao Yan rolled her eyes at Dao Ya:
"Now you know you won't dare!"

Zhao Xuan tugged at Dao Yan and said with a smile:

"Zhang Sanjin must have discovered this, and it should have been quite easy to investigate. Xiaoya, I really want to know, what exactly did you do to make Zhang Sanjin focus all his attention on you?"

As Dao Ya reflected on what she had done over the past few days, her expression grew increasingly awkward, and she stammered for a long time before finally being unable to speak.

Dao Yan slammed her hand on the coffee table, startling Dao Ya, who then said:
"It's nothing, just sold some contraband."

Zhao Xuan leaned back tactically, squinted slightly, and looked at Dao Ya with disbelief.

Dao Yan previously thought she knew this younger sister very well, but she was just stubborn and timid.

Now it seems that this girl is incredibly audacious.

Having sold some contraband, Dao Yan really wanted to ask her: which of the things she sold on the black market weren't contraband?

Zhang Sanjin only sold some contraband; he wouldn't be targeting Dao Ya.

"Speak properly!"

Dao Ya wrinkled her nose at Dao Yan and gave a soft snort, clearly dissatisfied.

All you do is use your status as the older sister to suppress me!
"It's nothing. Just a few days ago, some people from the Zhenxingqi Society came to me to buy things and asked if I had any weapons. Of course I said yes. I also told them that this business is risky, so if they don't want much and the profit is small, I won't do business with them. I might as well just sell them on the black market."

"As it turned out, they gave way too much."

Dao Ya's voice grew softer and softer as she spoke, while Dao Yan's fist hardened.

Why sell weapons of all things!
And it sounds like the number is quite large.

"Sis, calm down. I'm telling you, you can't hit a child on a rainy day!"

Dao Yan took a deep breath. What else could she do but beat the child on a rainy day? She was just idling around anyway.

Besides, is Dao Ya a child? Her audacity is outrageous.

"How many did you sell to them?"

Zhao Xuan quickly pulled Dao Yan onto his shoulder, which finally calmed Dao Yan down from her urge to beat up Dao Ya. Dao Ya breathed a sigh of relief and secretly gave her brother-in-law a thumbs up. That's more like it! A wife needs to be properly disciplined. If she hits people all the time, she'll be the one abusing her brother-in-law later!

So, my brother-in-law is still quite sensible.

Dao Ya's eyes darted around, and with an expression that said, "I've done a great service," she looked at Zhao Xuan and Dao Yan and said:
“Brother-in-law, how is that selling them weapons? I just wanted to find out how many people from their Zhenxingqi Society were lurking in the French Concession.”

Zhao Xuan and Dao Yan's lips twitched. Well, this little girl can come up with all sorts of crooked excuses now.

"Okay, then tell me, based on your investigation, how many people are in the Zhenxingqi Society?"

Dao Ya's expression turned serious:
"At least two hundred people."

Dao Yan couldn't sit still any longer. She moved her head off Zhao Xuan's shoulder, sat up straight, and looked at Dao Ya with a serious expression.
"So, you sold them at least two hundred guns?"

Daoya shook her head:
"Sister, that's too narrow-minded. How can two hundred people only buy two hundred guns? Don't they need the accompanying bullets and grenades? If they've already bought bullets and grenades, shouldn't they also have assault and suppression firepower? Besides, once you have all these things, you have to consider the buyers' needs. Logistics and supplies must also keep up."

"So, to put it simply, in addition to two hundred pistols, there are twelve Type 96 light machine guns, forty boxes of pistol ammunition, fifteen boxes of machine gun ammunition, six boxes of hand grenades, two hundred daggers, twenty boxes of compressed rations, and two hundred battlefield first aid kits."

"Well, that's about it. They offered a thousand large yellow croakers, so I have no reason not to sell them!"

Not to mention Dao Yan, Zhao Xuan was so shocked by Dao Ya's words that his mouth dropped open.

Seeing her sister and brother-in-law's dumbfounded expressions, Dao Ya became smug. After waving her hand ladylike innocence, Dao Ya continued:
"Of course, that stuff isn't worth a thousand large yellow croakers, but my service is great, I deliver it to your door."

"When the people from Zhenxingqi Society heard about this good thing, they immediately paid me a deposit for 100 large yellow croakers."

"Sister, brother-in-law, tell me, doing business is all about integrity. They've already paid a deposit. If I don't deliver the goods, how can I survive in this business?"

"So, did I do something wrong?"

Zhao Xuan looked at Dao Ya with a wry smile. Sure enough, she used to be greedy for money and food, but once she embarked on the path of making money, she was like a horse galloping wildly, and she didn't know how to write the word "fear" anymore.

Seeing the veins bulging on Dao Yan's forehead, Dao Ya shrank back into the sofa and quickly continued:

"Sister, I begged for the sack! I haven't finished yet. After getting the big yellow croaker, I only kept the deposit as my reward. I also split the deposit with Xiao Ai. I got seven and she got three."

"I sent the remaining nine hundred large yellow croakers to the Special Higher Police and the Military Police Headquarters. Sister Keiko accepted them, and Commander Ida accepted them too. What does that mean?"

Dao Ya successfully prevented Dao Yan from attacking:
"Sister, doesn't this mean that even the Japanese don't think there's a big problem?"

"Also, I sold the items to the Zhenxingqi Society, not to the Military Intelligence Bureau or the underground party, so everything is a minor issue."

Dao Yan took a deep breath:

"Okay, then tell me, what's the deal with your home delivery?"

It's important to understand that when buying arms in Shanghai, whether outside the foreign concessions or the French Concession, the most difficult part is ensuring the safe delivery of the weapons to their destination.

And Dao Ya even offers door-to-door delivery service. With this level of service, not to mention the people from Zhenxingqi Society, Dao Yan even wants the Shanghai station to buy a batch of weapons from Xiao Ya.

Dao Yan could understand why Xiao Ya could arrange for delivery outside the concession. After all, with Koji Ida and Keiko Aizawa backing her up, who would dare to intercept the convoy sent by Dao Ya and Ai Sato?

Dao Yan couldn't understand why Dao Ya from the French Concession had such influence.

Smith just watched Daoya act so recklessly?
Dao Ya chuckled, stood up from the sofa, put her hands on her hips, looked down at Dao Yan, and said smugly:

"That's easy. As long as I have a pass, I'm willing to deliver goods anywhere. Not to mention the French Concession, I can arrange delivery to Chongqing and Yan'an!"

"Given my friendship with Smith, getting the pass couldn't be easier."

As soon as Dao Ya finished speaking, she felt dizzy. The next second, Dao Yan pressed her head down with one hand and kneaded her wrists with one knee, forcing her to fall onto the sofa.

"I've given you the mountain city, I've given you Yan'an, why don't you just fly to the sky?!"

Zhao Xuan was stunned to see Dao Yan slapping Dao Ya's buttocks repeatedly.

What just happened? In a flash, Dao Yan disappeared from my side, and then Dao Ya was suppressed.

Zhao Xuan knew very well that Dao Ya was absolutely on par with him in terms of fighting skills.

As a result, Dao Yan cleaned it up as if it were an effortless task, just like handling a little chick.

"Waaaaah~ Brother-in-law, help me—"

After a while, Dao Ya rubbed her bottom and lay down on the sofa, looking at Dao Yan with a resentful expression.

Zhao Xuan held Dao Yan tightly around the waist, afraid that Dao Yan would rush up and give Dao Ya a loving lesson again.

"Alright, Yan, calm down. Xiaoya is still a child!"

Dao Yan turned around and glared at Zhao Xuan. "Have you ever seen a child who is over 240 months old?"

He's utterly rebellious.

"Hmph, you're just going to protect her. Sooner or later she'll become lawless and tear this family down."

"No, no, Xiaoya is still very well-behaved."

Seeing her brother-in-law frantically giving her meaningful glances, Dao Ya quickly suppressed her resentful look and nodded with a grin:
"Sister, I've been very obedient. If you had told me about this sooner, I promise I would never have sold them weapons."

Dao Yan chuckled. "So it's my fault for not telling you sooner?"

"Xiaoya, if you can't speak properly, then shut up!"

Dao Ya stuck her tongue out at Zhao Xuan, looking embarrassed.

"Alright, now we can be pretty sure that Uncle is probably after Xiaoya's network of connections."

"Remember, during dinner tonight, you must insist that all these relationships are with Sato Ai, and that you are just there to run errands."

Daoya nodded quickly:
"Brother-in-law, don't worry, I'm not stupid. Unless Uncle is also one of us, we still have to be careful around him."

Upon hearing this, both Zhao Xuan and Dao Yan sighed.

To get Ding Moqun back into the Military Intelligence Bureau? Difficult, extremely difficult.

Ding Moqun had this idea himself, but he hadn't been able to realize it no matter how long he planned it. If others helped him, they might even be arrested by Ding Moqun and handed over to the Japanese to curry favor.

This is the inherent weakness of human nature: people always only believe in what they have planned, and when faced with unexpected events that occur outside of their plans, most will only resort to extreme measures.

Ding Moqun is such an overconfident egoist.

"Also, Ayan, you just mentioned that the Shanghai station asked you to confirm something. You've basically guessed it already, and I can tell you definitively that your guess is correct."

Dao Yan gave a soft "hmm." She had already guessed it, so she wasn't too surprised when Zhao Xuan told her.

"Also, the so-called Female Ai Project, you should be able to roughly guess what it is just from the name, right?"

Dao Yan and Dao Ya nodded at the same time. As a top student among liberal arts students, Dao Ya was more familiar with this.

"Brother-in-law, in other words, the Zhenxingqi Society has likely planted spies in various factions, and in considerable numbers."

Seeing Zhao Xuan nod, Dao Ya's expression turned serious:
“Brother-in-law, I happened to see the launch of the Zhenxing Flag Society when I went to see Smith today, and I made a deal with him.”

“Qi is very prestigious in the French Concession, but he is extremely greedy. I feel that the information he provided to me this time is true.”

Dao Yan was completely numb, his eyes fixed on his beloved younger sister with ill intent:
"Then why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Dao Ya scoffed, looking at Dao Yan with displeasure:
"Sister, how could you even ask that question? Did you even give me a chance to speak?"

Zhao Xuan chuckled. "Xiao Ya, you really are something. No beating you took was for nothing!"

Seeing that Dao Yan was about to pry open her brother-in-law's hands that were holding her waist again, and was about to teach her another lesson, Dao Ya quickly said:
"Two days later, a new member of the Zhenxingqi Society will land in the French Concession. According to Qi, he is returning from Japan."

Zhao Xuan paused slightly after hearing this, then frowned and confirmed it again:
"Two days later, landing in the French Concession? What's the exact time?"

"Two days later, at the French Concession pier, at three o'clock in the afternoon."

“He brought back an important document. I was wondering what it was before, but now it seems to be related to the Female Ai Project. It might even be the list of members of the Female Ai Project.”

"After the newcomer disembarks, everyone from the Zhenxingqi Society will be mobilized to escort him safely back."

Dao Ya's words made a lot of sense. Zhao Xuan and Dao Yan exchanged a glance, both feeling that this matter was extremely important.

The Female Ai Project—that's a list of spies! Who knows if anyone on that list is even inside the Military Intelligence Bureau?

Zhao Xuan was still somewhat worried about the Red Party. It was alright that Xia Gong was in charge of the base area, but he was afraid that there were spies from the Female Ai Project infiltrating the local underground party.

If the items are retrieved by the Zhenxingqi Society, given the mindset of those lunatics, the consequences will be unimaginable.

After regaining her senses, Dao Yan's gaze towards Dao Ya was no longer malicious; she wanted to beat her up again.

Dao Ya jumped up from the sofa in shock. Although her butt still hurt, she chose to run away as soon as she saw things were going wrong rather than get beaten up again.

"Ayan, calm down. Xiaoya has done a great job this time."

"That's right, the rewards and punishments are not clearly defined. If you continue like this, I might join the underground Communist Party!"

Dao Yan was almost driven mad with anger. This rebellious younger sister of hers should be killed right now!

Seeing Dao Yan glaring at her, Dao Ya snorted lightly. Something seemed to be popping into her head, and the next second, Dao Ya calmly sat back down on the sofa, arms crossed, looking at Dao Yan with a defiant expression.
"I almost forgot, I'm Tiger Girl now, sister. You're Tiger Cub's subordinate, which means you're my subordinate. How dare you hit your superior, your very boss! Let me tell you, Dao Yan, I, Dao Ya, am not made of mud. If you dare hit me again, I'll report you to Shancheng and have the high-ranking officials there deal with you!"

After hearing this, Zhao Xuan silently released his grip on Dao Yan's slender waist.

Dao Ya was stunned by what she saw: Brother-in-law, I am your sister-in-law, how can you treat your lovely sister-in-law like this?
