Genius Agent

Today's dream was very meaningful to Su Yuncheng. It was the first time he had been discovered in a dream and could feel the emotions of the person in the dream.

Su Yuncheng wasn't in the mood to make breakfast, so he bought some food outside and went straight to the newspaper office.

Today he was the first person to arrive at the newspaper office; luckily, he always had a spare key with him, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to get in.

"Editor-in-chief, you're here so early?"

Huang Chuanming arrived at the newspaper office quickly and was quite surprised to see Su Yuncheng already in the office.

"I got up a little early today, so I came here early."

Su Yuncheng smiled. Huang Chuanming didn't say much, but took the initiative to clean up Su Yuncheng's office and went out to buy newspapers.

As before, all foreign-language newspapers must be purchased today, though it will take a little longer.

After reading all the newspapers, Su Yuncheng was still recalling his dream from yesterday.

Each dream gives him insight into the future. What is this different dream trying to tell him?

Unfortunately, Su Yuncheng couldn't find the answer.

At noon, Huang Chuanming and the others went home for lunch after work, while Su Yuncheng went alone to a small restaurant across from the newspaper office.

Their noodles were good, so Su Yuncheng ordered a bowl.

Yesterday's dream was so depressing that Su Yuncheng had little appetite and ate his noodles very slowly.

Old Meng was excitedly returning to the International Settlement.

He received a reply from Secretary Xiao today, saying that his hometown has agreed to admit Huang Chuanming into the organization.

Huang Chuanming is a talented person with faith and ambition, exactly the kind of person the organization needs to recruit.

However, Huang Chuanming's job is special, and apart from Lao Meng, no one else can know of his existence.

This applies to all comrades on the intelligence front.

As Lao Meng passed by the newspaper office where Huang Chuanming worked, he couldn't help but stop and glance at the newspaper office. Su Yuncheng was sitting by the window in the restaurant, looking out the window.

"It's him."

Su Yuncheng's body trembled slightly. When Old Meng turned around, Su Yuncheng saw his face. Su Yuncheng would never forget this face, especially his eyes.

The person I dreamt of being tortured last night was this person.

"Keep the change, please."

Su Yuncheng left immediately and followed slowly behind him.

Old Meng didn't go to see Huang Chuanming. Now wasn't the time for them to meet. He would tell Huang Chuanming the good news when Huang Chuanming came to study with him.

Huang Chuanming was an undercover agent. His admission to the Party was simplified, but his introducers were him and Secretary Xiao.

Old Meng believed that Huang Chuanming would soon grow into a pillar of the organization, and he was very confident about this.

Because of his excitement, Lao Meng didn't pay much attention to his surroundings.

Su Yuncheng followed at a distance and was not noticed by him.

As he entered a familiar path, Su Yuncheng's eyes widened.

When he was following Huang Chuanming before, Huang Chuanming entered this place, and he didn't follow him again.

However, today's situation is special, and Su Yuncheng has to go along.

Having calculated the time perfectly, Su Yuncheng quickly entered the alley and just in time to see Lao Meng's figure turn into an alley inside.

This time, Su Yuncheng did not follow.

The situation inside is unclear, and if we continue to follow, we are very likely to be discovered by the other party.

In his dream, he already knew that the person who was tortured to death was a member of the Communist Party, and that Huang Chuanming had been in contact with the Communist Party and had been here before. It was very likely that Huang Chuanming had come to see this person before.

Will this person be captured by secret agents and tortured to death in the future?

But in the dream, he finally discovered himself. So, does he know himself now?

Su Yuncheng could not be sure.

As long as he knows which alley he lives in and what he looks like, Su Yuncheng can find out his identity.

Back at the newspaper office, Su Yuncheng wasn't in a hurry. At that moment, he realized something.

His dream was indeed related to reality; it was just that yesterday's dream foreshadowed today.

If it weren't for yesterday's dream, he wouldn't have recognized this person, nor would he have known that Huang Chuanming was contacting him.

Su Yuncheng closed his eyes and pondered quietly.

But the moment he closed his eyes, he saw those eyes filled with disdain and determination.

After a while, Su Yuncheng got up and left the newspaper office.

"Uncle Gao."

Su Yuncheng arrived at the family's small dye shop and found the owner.

"Yuncheng is here, please have a seat."

The boss, surnamed Gao, was in his forties and was very happy to see Su Yuncheng.

"Uncle Gao, I need to find You Tiao (youtiao). Is he here?"

Su Yuncheng explained his purpose: Uncle Gao and Youtiao are uncle and nephew. Youtiao is a nickname, not because he likes to eat fried dough sticks, but because he is as shrewd and worldly as an old fried dough stick.

"Youtiao just went out, I'll send someone to call him."

Uncle Gao immediately called over others to help him order fried dough sticks.

"Brother Yuncheng, you're here."

You Tiao is a year younger than Su Yuncheng and was one of Su Yuncheng's few playmates when he was a child.

Su Yuncheng's parents went abroad and never returned; he grew up in Shanghai with his grandfather.

"Youtiao, come here, I need to talk to you about something."

Su Yuncheng immediately took him to a secluded place. His grandfather had helped many people in the past, including saving Uncle Gao and You Tiao's lives.

Even this small dye shop was opened for them by their grandfather.

Unlike the others, Uncle Gao and You Tiao were very loyal to each other, believing that their lives belonged to Grandpa Su.

Su Yuncheng could sense that this was their true thought. Currently in Shanghai, Uncle Gao and You Tiao were the people Su Yuncheng trusted the most.

Moreover, youtiao (fried dough sticks) is quite skilled.

He learned kung fu from his grandfather, and he was better at it than he was.

Most importantly, You Tiao is smart and knows how to handle things. Su Yuncheng has a lot to investigate right now, and Mutō Tomohō is still in Shanghai. He's a bit overwhelmed by the task on his own and needs help.

Fried dough sticks are the most suitable candidate.

"There's a waiter at the Lowell Hotel..."

Su Yuncheng first asked him to investigate Xiao Wei. Even if Xiao Wei was a Japanese agent, he wouldn't be able to find out about You Tiao's investigation.

This guy knows all sorts of people and has a lot of tricks up his sleeve.

Most importantly, his family background is clean, and on the surface, they have no connection with me.

Japanese spies couldn't find out about his childhood. His grandfather had met too many people; Uncle Gao and You Tiao were insignificant to him.

Even though You Tiao wasn't a professional agent, Su Yuncheng trusted him completely.

Youtiao is the only person who can find himself without being tracked.

When they were kids playing hide-and-seek, even though he could sense Youtiao's emotions, he still couldn't beat him.

"Don't worry, Brother Yuncheng, I will definitely be able to find out his true identity."

"Don't be careless, he might be a Japanese spy..."

Su Yuncheng instructed him, and You Tiao's expression became a little serious. He slowly nodded and said, "Brother Yuncheng, don't worry about me. No matter what kind of spy he is, I won't be discovered by him."

"Okay, I trust you. I'll talk to Uncle Gao. Go ahead."

Su Yuncheng nodded. He knew that no matter what request he made, Uncle Gao would not refuse. Even if it cost them their lives, they would not let themselves get their hands dirty.

In the past, they would have been considered suicide soldiers.

Being loyal to my grandfather is the greatest wealth he left me.

"Yes."

You Tiao left immediately. Sure enough, Su Yuncheng asked Uncle Gao to help him for a few days, and Uncle Gao immediately agreed.

Not just a few days, but a lifetime would be fine.

He had previously suggested that You Tiao stay by Su Yuncheng's side to protect him, but Su Yuncheng refused.
