"Alas, the security situation in Shanghai has deteriorated a lot recently. People are actually killing people in the streets outside the public concession..."

"...Hey, are there any good places run by Japanese people? I have a newspaper friend who was on a business trip to Nanjing. When he was walking on the street, he encountered an explosion and almost died on the spot!"

"Fortunately, Shanghai still has concessions."

"The concession is not peaceful either. Haven't you noticed that the concession has been full of spies from No. 76 recently? Well, the two men in black clothes who walked by just now are. I don't know what else to look for. They are wandering around the streets every day.

"

"What else can we look for, anti-Japanese elements! Bah, a bunch of bastard traitors!"

Zhang Jin got off the tram, passed by the men talking in low voices, crossed the road and walked into the Huadong Photo Studio opposite.

Opening the door and entering the house, Zhang Jin found that there were customers taking photos in the studio. This photo studio has been open for more than two months, and the business is considered light. Occasionally, he goes out to take photos for others, but only a handful of people come to take photos.

Countable.

Guo Qiyun turned around and saw that it was Zhang Jin. He smiled and said, "Sir, your clothes are ready and they are upstairs. Why don't you go up and take a look first?"

"Okay, you go about your business, I'm not in a hurry." Zhang Jin said and walked up the stairs.

Arriving on the second floor, he passed through the camouflaged clothes racks and saw Mingtai and Yu Manli in the small room inside.

"Here we come." Mingtai greeted.

"What is the mission this time? Was it proposed by Viper?" Zhang Jin asked.

He was actually a little confused. He eliminated the incident of assassinating Yoko Minami in the original plot. Logically speaking, there should be no other tasks during this period.

Moreover, because of his intervention, the bombing of the Japanese Consulate led to the mass arrests of the Special High School and No. 76. At this time, the storm has not yet passed, and rash actions will increase the possibility of the action team being exposed. Minglou, who is also in Shanghai, cannot

Maybe you don't know.

"Besides Viper, do we accept instructions from anyone else? Let's see, this is the goal of this mission." Mingtai handed a document to him.

Zhang Jin opened the document and found a photo and personal information attached to it.

Mingtai described this mission from the side: "Wu Mingda, a senior official who recently defected from Chongqing, will arrive in Shanghai by plane from Hong Kong in the next few days. It is said that the Japanese and puppet government will host a banquet for him. Not only does he have a group of military commanders,

The list of action teams and a batch of Shanghai underground party lists.

If the list falls into the hands of the Japanese and puppet government, it will be extremely harmful to us. What Shangfeng means is for us to find out the exact time of Wu Mingda's arrival in Shanghai, and then plan to assassinate him. We must eliminate this traitor!"

Wu Mingda!?

Zhang Jin was stunned for a moment when he heard the name. Well, in the plot of the dlc Invisible Guardian, it was indeed around this time that he defected from Chongqing to Shanghai.

It is now approaching the end of February, and it has only been about a month since Wang Jingwei officially announced the establishment of the puppet government in Nanjing.

Although the Wang Puppet regime has not yet been formally established, the new government framework prepared in Shanghai has already brought considerable influence. Moreover, due to the Japanese military pressure and political inducement to surrender, many high-ranking officials in Chongqing have defected to the enemy since last year.

This series of chain reactions will reach its peak on March 30th.

Most of the country was lost, and there was no hope of victory in the war of resistance. Chongqing was often bombed by the Japanese army, which made people panic all day long. The establishment of the new government became the last straw for this group of people, and they all seized the opportunity and tried to go ashore in one fell swoop.

Yu Manli said: "This Wu Mingda holds such important information. Not only we pay attention to it, but also the underground party and the Japanese. It will be very difficult to find information about his whereabouts."

"No matter how difficult it is, we must complete it!" Mingtai said without doubt.

He was worried that after Wu Mingda revealed his identity, his elder brothers and sisters would be affected.

Yu Manli understood his worries and said, "But how should we find out about Wu Mingda's arrival in Shanghai?"

Mingtai said: "I can find a way to check from my elder brother, Zhang Jin, doesn't your partner work in the new government? Ask him to help pay attention to this information. We must find out the specific date and our time as soon as possible

Not much more, Wu Mingda may arrive in Shanghai at any time.

The previous incident at the consulate has made the situation in Shanghai very tense now. If we want to assassinate Wu Mingda, we must make a thorough plan, otherwise not only will we not be able to complete the task, but our sacrifice will be in vain."

"Leave Wu Mingda to me. I'll assassinate him. You guys will be my backup. If I don't succeed, you'll come back to shoot me!" Zhang Jin accepted the task without hesitation.

Mingtai did not object, but reminded: "Assassinating Wu Mingda this time is much more difficult and dangerous than our escape from the Japanese consulate. Even if you can successfully assassinate, you may not be able to escape the enemy's pursuit!"

"I know." Zhang Jin nodded.

Originally, it was not too difficult to assassinate Wu Mingda in the original plot, but now it is at the cusp of the storm and the Japanese-occupied area is under martial law. The difficulty of sneaking into the Japanese-occupied area, whether in disguise or carrying a gun, has increased tenfold!

Sometimes he couldn't help but think that it would be better to carry out the mission of assassinating Yoko Minami, at least it would be much easier!

After coming out of the East China Photo Studio, Zhang Jin first went to leave a note for Zhuang Xiaoman to meet him, and by the way, he felt the degree of martial law in the Japanese-occupied area. The inspections were no less stringent than the previous few days.

At night, Big Shanghai Nightclub.

Zhuang Xiaoman, wearing a black and red cheongsam with high heels and high heels, walked into the box on the second floor.

"Hey, why are you willing to spend money to book a private room today? You even got a wine and fruit plate. You made a fortune from the Japanese recently?"

"I did make a fortune, but not with the Japanese, but with Director Liang No. 76." Zhang Jin looked at the graceful Zhuang Xiaoman with admiration, and briefly described what happened between him and Liang Zhongchun.

Read it again.

Zhuang Xiaoman poured himself a glass of wine, took a big sip, and then chuckled and said, "I told you that Director Liang is in a bad mood recently and always has a bad face. It turns out you are the one behind it!"

After laughing for a while, she said seriously: "What's the mission this time?"

"Wu Mingda defected to Chongqing and will arrive in Shanghai in the near future. We have been asked to assassinate Wu Mingda. Can you find out the exact time of Wu Mingda's arrival?" Zhang Jin said.

Zhuang Xiaoman frowned and said: "This is a bit difficult. I have been investigating the safe deposit box of HSBC Bank with Wang Manchun recently. She is now focusing on cooperating with Yoko Minami to conduct concession searches. All the matters of keeping an eye on the bank are left to me.

, with her obsession with the Ming family, she will definitely not distract me from other things."

"Is there no other way?"

"If Wu Mingda's security work is handed over to No. 76, I can find a way to find out, but I'm afraid that the Japanese will no longer trust us." Zhuang Xiaoman glanced at him, "Last time you made such a big fuss in the consulate, now not only

It was No. 76 who was under suspicion, and even the Special Higher Education Department and the Military Police Department were conducting self-investigations. I didn’t receive any news about Wu Mingda’s matter on No. 76, so he was obviously excluded."

After listening to Zhuang Xiaoman's words, Zhang Jin lowered his head and thought deeply. If there was no way to collect relevant information from No. 76, he would have to rely on Minglou. As the deputy director of the Secret Service Committee, Minglou would probably know some information!

Or there is another way to go, that is Liang Zhongchun!

In the plot, Liang Zhongchun once leaked a piece of information about the lone wolf to Mingcheng. At that time, only those in the special high school knew something, which proved that he was indeed somewhat capable in cat and dog tracks!

However, if you think about it carefully, you can probably guess that it is impossible for Liang Zhongchun to have an informant in the special high school. Let’s not talk about whether he has the courage. Even if he has the courage, it is impossible to bribe the informant with his identity.

.

No. 76 is actually under the jurisdiction of the Special High School, and he is also a traitor. The huge status gap between the two makes the Japanese look down on him at all. How can the Japanese, who are full of national pride, accept the bribe of a traitor to serve as the opponent's line?

people?

I have only heard of raising a dog to look after the house, but I have never heard of raising a dog to be your own master!

Therefore, the most likely reason why Liang Zhongchun was able to obtain some information from the Special High School was that his smuggling business was actually a part of the Special High School, and he heard some information from casual chats with his business partners.

Since Liang Zhongchun can obtain such secret information as Lone Wolf, it seems that it is not impossible to find out the information about Wu Mingda. I can't say 100%, but judging from the current situation, this is also an option.

"Now that we've finished drinking and talking, why don't we go down and dance?" Zhuang Xiaoman put down his wine glass and stretched out his little hand towards him.

Zhang Jin hesitated for a moment: "Forget it, I'll dance again next time I have a chance. I still have things to do, so I'll leave first."

"Even if something happens, there is no need to rush." ​​Zhuang Xiaoman walked up to him, leaned over and put his arm on his shoulders, with a smile on his face, but his tone was very serious, "I took a big risk when I came out to talk today.

There is a risk, and there are two informants behind me. You also know that the situation has been bad recently. I left not long after I arrived. I am afraid that I will be suspected. Let's finish dancing first and then leave together!"

When Zhang Jin heard what she said, he could only nod his head in agreement, thinking that he wasn't just greedy for my body, he was being sentimental, and he was ashamed of himself!

Taking advantage of the break between songs, the two went downstairs to the dance floor.

After only dancing for a while, Zhuang Xiaoman couldn't help but complain: "Your dancing level is still so bad. Don't you usually practice? In a nightclub, it is easy for people to doubt your poor dancing level!"

"I was the one who was stepped on. What did I say?" Zhang Jin was speechless. "What's more, normal people come to nightclubs just to dance. Isn't it for women?"

As he spoke, he suddenly tightened his arms around Zhuang Xiaoman's slender waist, instantly bringing their bodies together, and then raised his eyebrows and said, "This is the real meaning of dancing in a nightclub!"

Zhuang Xiaoman glared at him, with a coldness hidden in her charm: "You should be glad that you are not my mission target!"

At this time, the dance ended appropriately.

Zhang Jin let go of his arm and said with a smile: "Let's go, Miss Zhuang, I'll take you home."

"Okay, Mr. Zhang." Zhuang Xiaoman smiled and took his arm.

The two came out of the Shanghai Nightclub and said goodbye at the door of Zhuang Xiaoman's apartment.

After getting rid of the pursuer behind him, Zhang Jin went straight from Zhuang Xiaoman's apartment to Liang Zhongchun's residence.

Liang family.

Liang Zhongchun, who had just finished taking a shower, walked into the bedroom wearing a set of pajamas. He was immediately startled by a figure sitting beside the bed. He couldn't help but take a few steps back and knocked down the desk lamp behind him.

Bang!

"Director Liang, don't be so surprised, right?" Zhang Jin said.

The wife who was taking care of her son downstairs suddenly asked loudly: "Zhongchun, why is there so much noise upstairs!?"

Liang Zhongchun responded: "It's okay, I accidentally knocked over the lamp, I can just clean it up myself!"

After saying that, he closed the door, looked at Zhang Jin and frowned and said, "Why are you here again? Can you please stop talking about things at my house?"

"I think it's safer here." Zhang Jin said.

"I don't feel safe at all!" Liang Zhongchun said angrily, "We have to agree on a place to meet next time!"

"So Director Liang plans to cooperate with me for a long time?"

"Will you let me go if I don't cooperate with you? When did you come here uninvited?" Director Liang asked, with a little grievance in his tone.

People come to my house at will, but the reinforced guards outside the house don't even respond at all. Operations Office 76 has been completely humiliated by these losers!

Zhang Jin said: "Let's not talk about this for now. I came to Director Liang today to ask for your help with something."

"What's the matter?" After Liang Zhongchun asked, he added, "I won't do anything too dangerous!"

"It's not anything dangerous. I just want to ask your help to inquire about someone."

"Who?"

"Wu Mingda."

"Wu Mingda? This name seems familiar!" Liang Zhongchun thought for a while and said, "This seems to be someone from the top of the military command, right? What does it have to do with you and me? He is in Chongqing!"

"It will soon be related. Wu Mingda defected from Chongqing to join the new government and will arrive in Shanghai within the next few days."

"Really? Why didn't I receive the message...Wait a minute!" Liang Zhongchun showed an expression of disbelief on his face, "You don't want me to know the time when Wu Mingda arrived in Shanghai, right?"

"Clever! How about saying that Director Liang is the backbone of No. 76!" Zhang Jin said with a smile.

Liang Zhongchun waved his hands disapprovingly, narrowed his eyes and said: "Don't put your hat on me, I know what I am capable of. You, on the other hand, want to ask about Wu Mingda, do you want to assassinate him? Are you a member of the military commander?"

"

"This is not important. What is important is whether Director Liang is interested in doing this business with me. You tell me the news about Wu Mingda, and I will tell you the news about the underground party. I heard that No. 76 has been patrolling the concession recently.

, but nothing was found.”

"Humph." Liang Zhongchun sneered noncommittally.

"If Director Liang cracked the underground party's contact point during this inspection, how can it be regarded as a great achievement?" Zhang Jin Xunxun said, "No. 76 has been in the limelight in Shanghai recently, but what most people are talking about is

They are all Wang Manchun. Even her subordinate Zhuang Xiaoman has a greater reputation than you. The troublemaker even has the title of Peerless Shuangman. Their Intelligence Department has done more operations than your Operations Department. Could it be that, Director Wang, you don't know anything about it?

Aren’t you worried about your status?”

Liang Zhongchun smiled faintly: "What am I worried about? I, Liang, have served the new government and the imperial army for many years. In terms of ability and loyalty, how can I be compared to a woman who just came in?"

Zhang Jin also smiled and said: "In terms of ability and loyalty, Director Liang is indeed good, but it is a pity that he is not of the same mind as Wang Manchun. If Wang Manchun wants to further control No. 76, he might push Zhuang Xiaoman to the position of director of the Operations Division.

, based on her relationship with Minami Yoko of the Special Higher Education Course, does Director Liang still have confidence?"
